CARRIERS GET AXE
TO SAYEEXPEHSE
Pour Lincoln Men Reliered of Work
and Thrown Oat of Jobs They
Expected to Keep.
ARE TOLD THEY MUST RESIGN
(Trom a Staff Corrvepondent.)
LINOOLN, Sept. IJ.(8peclal.-Efforts
f tha democratic administration at
Washington to stave off the inevitable
deficiency are acaln being shown In the
postofflce department here la Unooln,
and efficiency la said to be suffering be
cause ( cutting off oarrlera In order to
save the money.
During the present month four carriers
have been dismissed from the poetofflce
force who were under civil service rules.
All were substitute carriers and two ot
them have been In the service four years.
I F. G randy, whose story Is similar
to the rest, but more noticeable because
he quit a good Job at aohool teaching
nine months In the year to take on the
carrier job, where he could work the
year around, was dismissed without a
hearing as the civil service rules require.
When called on the carpet be says that
he and the rest were given the choice
of having their heads lopped off by a
request to resign or signing a prepared
resignation which would allow them to
work a month longer. The took the lat
ter way because each of them needed
the work.
Orandy, who has a wife and two ohll
dren, la now at work on a farm outside
of town. All of them worked long enough
so that they were in line of promotion
to a regular carrier Job.
The only reason given for the action of
the department was that they were too
old. The rules of the department are
that a man must be under 46 when he
enters the service. Orandy waa 40 when
he went to work four years ago. It is
charged that If the department had no
Idea of allowing these men to come In
because of the age limit. It had no right
to take them on as aubcarriert knowing
that they expected promotion.
