Suit Tests Civil Service Law Constitutionality In U S Court
New York Sept 4 A suit is filed in the United States circuit court to test the civil service act's constitutionality. James A Hinkley petitions for a quo warranto order returnable Sept 25 compelling civil service commissioners Dorman B Eaton and others to show cause why they do not exceed authority and limit the president's appointment powers. The petition argues the act diverts presidential duties and forces nominations through commissioners rather than the Senate, seeks a writ to compel defense of their claimed powers, and asks the court to require filing of this information.
