PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSIONER.
DELAY IN MAKING APPOINTMENT. PUBLIC SERVICE AGGRIEVED. CHRISTCHURCH, May 26. A special meeting of the Canterbury Committee of the Public Service Association passed the following motion: This association, believing that the tenure of the Public Service Commissioner's appointment should secure him from any suggestion of political influence, strenuously protests against the scandalous inaction of the Government in its failure to make a permanent appointment to that office, and urges ad members of Parliament and the press to use every endeavour to terminate the anomaly of an unconstitutional temporary appointment, which loaves the appointee subject to the possibility of removal from the office at any moment. In the interest of efficiency we urge the appointment to be made without further delay.
