Programs to Result in Toorer Service "Economy programs which pro pose further to exploit public workers by lowering their pay will only result in poorer and poorer public service. The dif ference in pay in public employ ment appears on the average to be lower than in private fields for work which in many cases carries a hieh degree of respon sibility. If re going to allow our price to fluctuate as they have uuu doing, we should also see to that our public serv ice is not ruined in the process," Dr. Palmer said.
