This report was referred by the Speaker to the House Committee on Reform in the Civil Service. FINDINGS OF THE COMMISSION. The commission made a careful analysis of the unfavorable con- ditions in the Government service. The principal findings in the analysis were : (1) Lack of uniformity in entrance salaries, in pay for the same class of work, and in pay scales as between depart- ments, particularly between war-expanded departments and other departments. (2) Increase in inequalities as a result of the present bonus system. (3) Failure of pay rates to keep pace with the increase in the cost of living. (4) Lack of standards in fixing pay, in relating pay to work performed, and in determining the titles of positions. (5) Large number of unnecessary titles. (6) The defects of unrestricted lump-sum appropriations on the one hand and of the rigid system of statutory appro- priations on the other. (7) Absence of a uniform plan for pay increases within classes and for promotion from class to class. (8) Absence of uniform regulations and practices governing working hours, sick leave, housing and other welfare matters, safety, probation, training, testing of efficiency, and transfers. The Commission pointed out that the general effect of these injus- tices and inequalities is impaired morale, excessive turnover, waste and inefficiency, and a condition of employment unattractive to a desirable type of technical employees. RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE COMMISSION. To correct these conditions the commission proposed a reclassifi- cation statute, including a classification of positions in the service in the District of Columbia (excepting the navy yard and postal service) and schedules of compensation. The bill also includes the IV INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT. following civil service and welfare provisions: Periodical increases shall be based on efficiency records prescribed by the Civil Service Commission and rated by department heads. Promotions, so far as possible, shall be on the basis of competitive promotional exami- nations. Congress shall prescribe minimum working hours and uni- form overtime, compensation for hourly rate employees, night work, leave of absence, and sick leave. The Civil Service Commission shall determine whether or not an employee has satisfactorily passed a probationary period. Employees who fall below a proper stand- ard of efficiency shall be demoted, dismissed, or pensioned. An advisory council shall be created, consisting of an equal number of representatives of administrative officers and employees, to advise the Civil Service Commission on personnel problems, to hear ap- peals and complaints, and to consider measures of welfare and wages; and similar subsidiary councils shall be established in the several departments and bureaus. As to the adoption and control of classification, the commission recommended that Congress adopt the detailed classification and salary rates attached to the report and authorize the Civil Service Commission to take over and maintain records of the commission and to allocate individual positions in accordance with the classi- fication; and that Congress adjust salaries in accordance with this classification and allocation. It further recommended that the administration of the classification be delegated by law to the Civil Service Commission, which will make recommendations to Congress regarding proposed changes and additions. In some cases these recommendations are to apply until acted on by Congress. All estimates are to be made in accordance with the new classification upon certification by the Civil Service Commission that they are in conformity with the classification schedules. Appointments are to be made at the minimum rate prescribed in the classification. ACTION ON REPORT OF COMMISSION. In acting upon the classification report, the chairman of the Com- mittee on Reform in the Civil Service of the House of Representa- tives employed a special adviser and called upon various members of the detailed reclassification staff and on other representatives of the departments to assist him in making an analysis of the report and a redraft of the proposed bill. This work has been done in a spirit of entire appreciation of the soundness of the fundamental principles of the report of the com- mission and of the excellent work done by the staff and detailed staff and the advisory committee attached to the commission. The report of the commission and its supporting studies and statistics have been the basis for the redraft which follows. It would have INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT. y been quite impossible in the time and with the resources avaihibie to build otherwise than upon the foundations laid by the Reclassi- fication Commission. BASIS FOR REDRAFT OF SCHEDULES. While the underlying principles followed by the commission have met with almost unanimous approval, it is generally conceded that the bill and schedules require modifications if they are to receive favorable attention at the approaching short session of Congress. The bill is too comprehensive. The act creating the joint commis- sion authorized the commission to prepare a plan of uniform and equitable pay, but not a general plan for the reorganization of the civil service and the welfare of employees. The bill was not drafted with regard to the appropriation machinery of Congress or to the proposed budget plan. The schedules are too long and too detailed for incorporation in an act of Congress. They would be a source of embarrassment to Congress, to department and bureau heads, and to the employees if fixed in law in such detail. The plan to vest in the Civil Service Commission the entire control of the new classification, carrying with it the power to distribute large lump sums for in- creases, is not one which is likely to commend itself to Congress. It has been the object of this redraft to restrict the bill to re- classification, to simplify and consolidate schedules, and to make them effective by methods adapted to the appropriation machinery of Congress. As a basis for the redrafted schedules, a study has been made of the working materials and cost statistics of the Eeclassification Com- mission. In general, it has been found that the commission followed a sound and conservative policy as to salaries. Prevailing rates and salaries have been verified, and wherever errors have been found these have been corrected. While the commission made studies of the cost of living, the family minimum budget was not used to deter- mine salaries and the individual minimum was used only as a guide for purposes of approximation. The present and anticipated de- creases in the cost of living therefore do not invalidate the general average of rates proposed by the commission and verified bji' us. It may be said that the compensation proposed for the majority of posi- tions in the redrafted schedules is still somewhat below comfortable living standards and the standards of the most progressive private employers and local governments, COST OF SALARY ADJUSTMENTS. The Reclassification Commission estimated that over and above present pay and bonus the increased appropriation to make their schedules effective would be between 8^ and 10 per cent. This was on VI INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT. the assumption that adjustments in salaries in the case of underpaid employees would be not merely to the minimum salary of the proper grade, but to that higher rate in the grade to which the employee might be entitled as the result of length of service. We have analyzed part of the Reclassification Commission's figures. They are based upon tentative allocation of the duties cards collected by the commis- sion. The commission did not have the funds or the staff to make the critical field studies of organization and individual duties on which absolutely accurate records must be based. In addition, the commission recommended no rates for a number of the higher posi- tions and, therefore, as to such positions had no exact guide as to in- creased cost. The commission seems to have been generous in its allocation, but has underestimated the number of employees "who would be immediately increased to the top of their appropriate grade. Probably the total increase under the commission's plan would be nearer 12 per cent than 10 per cent, but it would certainly not ex- ceed 12 per cent. In view of the fact that critical studies of the reorganization of Government establishments are projected, and that such reorganiza- tion would undoubtedly reduce the numbers of employees and pro- duce considerable saving in personnel, it has seemed essential to de- vise a plan which will not involve too large an immediate! increase, and which will look toward providing for further increased compen- sation for necessary personnel out of savings through consolidation and abolition of unnecessary positions. We have therefore recommended in the redrafted bill that the im- mediate adjustments be made only to the proper minimum salary rate, excepting only the highest technical and administrative posi- tions. We have also recommended omitting teachers in the District of Columbia from the classification. We have estimated that the increase in appropriations will thus be reduced to approximately 8 per cent. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The detailed work of revision has devolved largely on Mr. Robert Moses, who has been employed as special adviser on reclassifica- tion. Acknowledgment is made of the valuable service rendered b}^ Mr. Lewis Meriam, of the Institute of Government Research, and by Lieut. Col. Frederick W. Albert, who have acted as principal assist- ants to Mr. Moses, and by the members of the Reclassification Com- mission's detailed staff and administrative officers, who have placed the experience gained with the Reclassification Commission at our disposal.

The Secretary of the Treasury shall make a i-eport to Congress at the beginning of the first session after March 4, 1921, on a classification of field services which shall follow the principles and rules of the classification of 1920 in so far as these are applicable to the field services.

The head of the department shall rate, in accordance with such systems, the efficiency of each employee under his control or direction. Such current ratings for each grade shall be open to inspection by the representatives of the Civil Service Commission and by the employees of the department under conditions to be determined by the Civil Service Commission after consultation with the de- partment heads. The Civil Service Commission may require that one copy of such current ratings shall be transmitted to and kept on file with the commission. Sec. 9.
