| Abstract: | The article presents information on the methods of evasion of civil service laws. Any systematization of the techniques of political machine formation must include an analysis of the methods of evasion and avoidance of merit system legislation. The electoral power of the machine depends in large measure upon the efforts of disciplined and loyal party workers who may be recruited most readily through the distribution of patronage. Framing legislation to exclude certain classes of employees from the application of merit requirements and procedures, many positions have been saved to be dispensed at the discretion of the organization. Legislation usually provides that temporary employees pending the holding of an examination may fill vacancies in such positions for thirty or sixty days. By filling competitive positions with temporary employees and repeatedly renewing these appointments merit laws may be practically nullified. |
