Civil Service Shows Growing Classified Ranks

A United States civil service commission report notes about 87 000 places in the classified service now versus 43 000 at the start of the Cleveland administration. There are 91 000 unclassified posts, with 72 000 classifiable. 66 000 of these are fourth class postmasters. Dismissals occur with or without classification, but new appointments require competitive examinations. Over the last four years only about 8 percent of classified employees were removed, while unclassified removals reached about 50 percent.
