Aboli tion of the putronage system regard ing first and second class postmas ters, pension agentB, employee of the land offices, tho Internal revenue and customs Bervices, and the transfer of such positions to the classified civil service lists are recoiu trended to Congress by President Taft today In a "second chapter" message on econ omy and efficiency. The message In part wus: Merit And Economy. In the Interests of an efficient nnd economical administration of the Government, 1 urge the necessity for the Inauguration of this Important reform and recommend as necessary amendments to the lawa governing such appointments, such amendments to take effect not later than July 1. t9i:i, so that there may be secured to the people the benefits to be de slved from the conduct of their af fairs by offlcera selected on the basis of merit and devoting their time and talents solely to the duties or thorr offices. "In my opinion each of the fore going recommendations. If acted up on, will largely Increase efficiency. I'lrec ly and Indirectly, the changes proposed will result In saving mil lions of dollars. "This will leave Congress? free to deieimlne whether the amount thus saved may be utilized to reduce taxa tion or provide funds with which to extend activities already carried on, nod enter Into beneficial projects which heretofore could not be under taken for lack of funds." Too Many Postofllce Workers. In the puatorflce department the President declared that the investl cat'ons of the economy commission hell -Heel that ill many rases two i,. ..,,1,11 wive d- ng the work of one. In Hib: connection the meisage said: "A i Hie annual o'ler.ning cxiiensea ol fiirt and se.-ond elaas postofrices iiggn gate over $sii.inii).iiilO, there is mi d ml t that ir the postmasters In those offices embraced In the classi :i, d service were required to devote all or their lime to the public service . lie annual Hiivi;ig would amount to I about I. Mill. null." Further mid alnillar savings, the ' message declared, could be effected . by Hie abolition of assistant post in a stern. AI.elMi Land Oilier llerelvers. i All annua! savings of nearly $62, lino. nun rould h" made, the President asserted, ir pension agunts were put on a civil service basis. More effi cient work, coupled with an econonil ci! administration, would result If the post of receiver of land offices were abolished nnd the register given those duties In addition to bis own, and put on the classified list. The nier-M'K" adds: "In the Internal revenue and cus toms services the direct saving of salaries nnd Indirect economy through Increased efficiency would ro'low "tid restili III the transfer of such unices to the classified service, in otter Holds of service the saving which woald result from classifica tion of local officers under the dlf tennt ile-.artnien:s Is not so marked, lot iiinloiihtediv' substantial saving would follow." o- v' ss Ethel Staggs. of North Hose Ling, underwent an operation for appendicitis at Merry Hospital this ii thing.
