Mrs. Hoxie Says Demands Threaten Economic Stability Cities and States Must Aid National Government in Administering Relief Funds Government has not been equal to the unproved demands made upon it during the past depression, and as a result our governmental and economic stability is being threatened, according to the seventh student forum last night. "The comparatively simple problem of relief has exhausted the ability of our governmental structure to administer properly, and the only way to save democracy is to force governments of cities and states, as well as the national government, to require the setting up of just as high standards of education and government work as are required of doctors and lawers," said Mr. Hoxie. Mrs. Hoxie, of Kansas City, is president of the Kansas City League of Women Voters. She has made civil servant work a reality during night, a subject of especial study, and her speech demonstrated that she was not to be wagged in her determination to achieve better government for America.

Must Abolish Spoils System She pointed out that most of her audience would live to pay taxes which were incurred to pay the expense of a heavily bureaucratic system of government. The waste, attendant upon the waste, was held for four years, with a resultant change in personnel, mounts to a terrific figure, according to Mrs. Hoxie. She said much of this waste could be saved by the installation of a merit system based on the idea of the governmental career, and government would function much better. Select Employees of Merit The ideal career system would entail the selection by merit of all government employees except those actually engaged in determining policies, such as the President, congressman and the cabinet members, according to Mrs. Hoxie. She pointed out England as a country which has installed the career system, and said that in nearly every other country where it exists, which America finds a job to give to the man, and then removes him after a comparatively short term in office. England and Germany make an effort to discover especially adaptable students while they are still young, and then removes them from public schools (for instance, during the permanent technique.

He also attempted to strengthen the Rhineland garrison further at present was termed a mockery of Eden's plan for a conciliatory gesture.
