Governor Blaine vetoes Catlin substitute secrecy clause repeal
The Wisconsin special session adjourned sine die after Gov. Blaine vetoed the Catlin substitute amendment to repeal the secrecy clause in the income tax law. The session, with three members present per house, approved bills allocating 46,000 to the tax commission and extending its investigative period to six years, while penalties for fraud were tightened. Blaine argued the measure would mislead the public and cannot be signed into law.

Abolition of Civil Service Policy Favored by Daugherty
Washington D C Attorney General Daugherty testifying before a House subcommittee voiced support for abolishing the civil service system and restoring political appointment by recommendation. President Harding reportedly disagreed on the wisdom of ending civil service control. Daugherty called the civil service inefficient and a costly experiment, claiming two thirds fewer employees could run the government without it. He said he would trust a political committee’s recommendations over civil service qualifications and criticized civil service staff for clinging to job security. He added reform is needed but not yet feasible to fix.
