Louisiana Civil Service Move Targets Local Patronage
Baton Rouge reports reveal Senator Huey P. Long guiding a plan to place hiring and firing of all city town and parish workers under the state Civil Service Commission. The measure, approved by his allies, broadens civil service to any municipal parish or state officer and their assistants clerks and employees, aiming to strip local governments of job- awarding power and extend control across New Orleans and the state. Long argues the move tightens governance while opponents warn of reduced local autonomy as the legislative session continues.
