It does not contain other acts administered by the United States Civil Service Commission-the Classi- fication Act of 1949, the Hatch Political Activities Act, and the Civil Service Retirement Act; nor does it contain such regulations as the Retention Prefer- ence Regulations for Use in Reductions in Force, the Annual and Sick Leave Regulations, or the Federal Employees Pay Regulations. Pages 3 through 75 of this pamphlet are repro- duced from the Federal Personnel Manual, the official medium of the Commission for issuing its regulations, instructions, and suggestions to other agencies. These pages are current as of December 26, 1950. Section 1753 of the Revised Statutes [Act of March 3, 1871, 16 Stat. 514; 5 U. S. C. 631] This section reads as follows : The President is authorized to prescribe such regu- lations for the admission of persons into the civil service of the United States as may best promote the efficiency thereof, and ascertain the fitness of each candidate in respect to age, health, character, knowledge, and ability for the branch of service into which he seeks to enter; and for this purpose he may employ suitable persons to conduct such inquiries, and may prescribe their duties, and establish regulations for the conduct of persons who may receive appointments in the civil service. Under authority of this statute, and of the Civil Service Act of 1883, the President issues civil-service rules and other Executive orders which determine personnel policies and proce- dures in the executive civil service. Civil Service Act (Pp. 3-6) The fundamental purpose of this act was to establish, in the parts of the service covered by its provisions (the competitive service), a merit system whereby selection for appointment should be made on the basis of demonstrated relative fitness without regard to political, re- ligious, or similar considerations. The act es- tablished the United States Civil Service Com- mission, and requires the Commissioners to aid the President of the United States in drawing up civil-service rules to carry out the provisions of the act. In 1883 only 10 percent of the executive civil service was within the scope of the act. In September 1950, 93 percent of the positions in the executive civil service (continental United States only) were in the competitive service. Reorganization Plan No. 5 of 1949 (Pp. 7-8) This plan, effective August 20, 1949, made the chairman (formerly the president) of the Com- mission its chief executive and administrative officer, with full authority and responsibility for the operating functions of the Commission. The three-member bipartisan Commission re- tained the power to make regulations, act on appeals, investigate matters pertaining to the civil service, and make recommendations to the President. Veterans' Preference Act of 1944 (Pp. 9-13) This act, which was approved by the Presi- dent on June 27, 1944, brought together in comprehensive statutory form various statutes, Executive orders, and Civil Service Commission regulations under which preference in Federal employment had previously been given to cer- tain groups of persons on the basis of military service. It also provided for the granting of certain additional veteran-preference benefits. Moreover, the act contains provisions which are not restricted to veteran-preference matters. For example, (1) the act requires that the names of eligibles on civil-service registers be certified Approved For Release 2001/11/16 : CIA-RDP57-00384R00050010089ipghlet 2 January 1951 in accoE g IA- N - o es a an appoin in 1in"bo c`~efe sea l bmi ec suffi ien ii l are officer to allow him to consider three names in connection with each vacancy; (2) it states that minimum educational requirements may be pre- scribed in a civil-service examination only under certain conditions; and (3) it states require- ments which must be observed in determining ~~c1r~nbfor positions non a ense agercies and would allow the urgent needs of agencies to be met more promptly. Under authoril y of the order, a number of the Civil Service Regulations were suspended. Executive Order 9830 the order in which employees are to be released Part I (pp. 16-18) prescribes the organization in a reduction in force in a Federal agency. for personnel administration in the executive Section 1302 of the Supplemental Appropriation Act, 1951 [Act of Sept. 27, 1950, 64 Stat. 10441 This section reads as follows: After September 1, 1950, and during the fiscal year 1951: (a) In making appointments in the Government service the Civil Service Commission shall make full use of its authority to make temporary appoint- ments in order to prevent increases in the number of permanent personnel and no employee in the Federal civil service promoted, transferred or appointed to a position of higher grade shall be eligible, in the event of separation from the service through reduction in force, to reinstate- ment at a grade above the grade held by such employee on September 1, 1950; and all reinstate- ments, transfers or promotions to positions in the Federal civil service shall be temporary and for positions subject to the Classification Act of 1949 shall be made with the condition and notice to the individual reinstated, transferred or promoted that the classification grade of the position is subject to post-audit and correction by the appropriate departmental or agency personnel office or the Civil Service Commission; (b) The names of all persons to be terminated under reductions in force in the departments and agencies of the Government shall be certified as eligible for appointment to positions in agency programs determined by the President to be related directly to national defense, if qualified, at not to exceed the grade and salary last held in the termi- nating agency or department; and (c) The Department of Defense is authorized to call on other departments or agencies for such additional personnel as it may require within the limits of its funds. Executive Order 10180 (Pp. 14 and 15) branch of the Federal Government, dei ining the personnel-administration responsibilities of the Civil Service Commission, the agencie; and the Federal Personnel Council. Part II consists of the six Civil Service Rules. For reference purposes, they have beer. printed, not in unbroken sequence as they appeared in the Executive order by which they were promulgated, but with the Civil Service Com- mission regulations which supplement them. For example, Regulation 2 follows Rule II, Regulation 3 follows Rule III, etc. The rules and regulations appear on pages 19-711. Civil Service Rules and Regulations (Pp. 19-75) The six rules consist of broad policies for the administration of the Civil Service Ac ~ and the Veterans' Preference Act. They deleg;Lte to the Civil Service Commission authority to issue regulations to carry out those policieE. When the rules require supplementary regula ;ions, the regulations are numbered to correspond with the rules to which they relate. Regulations 7-11 (pp. 68-75), while issued under suuthority of the rules, have no corresponding ru. es. The rules and regulations provide for the active participation of agencies with the Civil Service Commission in the fields of i ecruitin_g and placement. In order to speed up and simplify personnel transactions, they delegate authority to agencies to take certain personnel actions, such as promotions and reassignments, without the prior approval of the Commission but under standards issued by the Commission. Such actions are subject to post-audit and review by the Commission. The purpose of this Executive order was to Civil Service Rule VI (pp. 37-62) contains prevent, as provided by section 1302 of the Schedules A and B of the Civil Servi e Rules.

REGULATIONS UNDER CIVIL SERVICE RULE IV Prohibition Against Political Actit ity SEC. 4.101 Investigations. (a) Ir vestiga- tions of cases involving charges of prohibited political activity on the part of an officer or employee (both hereinafter comprehended with- in the term "employee") subject to he pro- visions of section 4.1 of Rule IV shall be con- ducted jointly by representatives of tl.e Com- 30 Approved For Release 2001/11/16 : CIA-RDP57-00384R000500100036-9 mission and. of ove da a r e here AIM!! 6 vidual is enipioyrecg unless t e commission or the agency signifies that it will be unable to participate in the investigation. The Com- mission shall be notified of any complaint of political activity received by an agency and shall be given an opportunity to cooperate in any investigation that the agency may decide to make. Likewise, the Commission will not proceed with any investigation until the agency has been notified and has been given an oppor- tunity to participate. (b) During the course of the investigation the employee shall be afforded an opportunity to make a statement, either personally or in writing, before the investigator, and shall be allowed to furnish names of witnesses who will support the statements he has made to the investigator. SEC. 4.102 Investigation by correspondence. (a) In case the complaint involves a political activity violation that may be established by record evidence, the investigation may be con- ducted by correspondence. In such cases, the accused employee will be given an opportunity to furnish in writing any statement or infor- mation that he may desire and the employing agency will be furnished a copy of the letter directed to such accused employee allowing him the opportunity to furnish a statement. SEC. 4.103 Proposed order. (a) When the Commission reaches the conclusion that a violation of section 4.1 of Rule IV has been es- tablished by the investigation, it shall issue a proposed order. This order, which shall in- clude a statement of the charges against the employee and of the information in support thereof, shall be sent to the. employee by ^egis- tered mail, and he shall be allowed 15 days from the date of service to respond thereto in writing. A copy of this order shall also be sent to the agency in which the individual is employed. With his reply to the proposed order, the employee may request a hearing as hereinafter provided. SEC. 4.104 Hearing. (a) The granting of a hearing shall not be a matter of right but shall be within the discretion of the Commis- 0 -R e e S e nppoyee as 0mmit 0ecT a~violation or where a violation is established by indis- putable record evidence. (b) Hearings shall be held before a Hearing Examiner designated by the Commission and shall be at the Commission's office in Washing- ton, D. C., unless the Commission shall order that the hearing be held elsewhere. All testi- mony shall be under oath or affirmation. The employee may appear personally or by or with counsel. Counsel appearing shall have been admitted to practice before the Commission in accordance with Rule 4 of the rules of prac- tice under the act of August 2, 1939 as amended (section 23.4). (c) The hearing shall be of the limited scope necessitated by the Commission's lack of the power of subpena in proceedings under section 4.1 of Rule IV. Because of the absence of that authority, it cannot undertake to conduct said hearing as a proceeding de novo, or to have evidence introduced therein in support of the charges against the respondent. Owing to the lack of subpena power, evidence in sup- port of charges must be limited to informat given voluntarily. Such information is cs',- tained upon an understanding of confide,. treatment. Consequently, evidence support- ing the charges cannot be introduced at the hearing. The hearing shall be unilateral, that is, it shall be only for the presentation of evi- dence on behalf of the employee in rebuttal of the charges disclosed by the proposed order. Counsel for the Commission may cross-examine witnesses. (d) It shall be within the discretion of the Hearing Examiner to permit, and fix the time for, filing of briefs. The proceedings at the hearing will not be reported, unless the Com- mission shall so direct; but the employee shall have the privilege of himself having the evidence taken stenographically. If the proceeding is not taken by a reporter on behalf of the Com- mission, the employee and Commission counsel shall submit a summary thereof to the Hearing Examiner within a time fixed by him. Any disagreement concerning the contents of the 31 Approved For Release 2001/11/16 : CIA-RDP57-00384R000500100036-9 summary shall be sol ed by the xaminer, the individual has been removed on grounds and the te~e A3 pr e ge~r0 JiJ~s.

SEC. 4.109 Reopening cases. (a) Em- ployees removed between August 2, 1939, and August 25, 1950, for established political activity violations may request that the Com- mission reopen their cases to determine whether the violations warranted removal from the service. The request must be made in writing by the individual concerned and may be ac- companied by evidence or affidavits to support the plea that the violation did not warrant removal. (b) In reopened cases where the original removal was based upon a Commission finding that the individual had engaged in prohibited political activity no further investigation will be made and no hearing will be held, and the Commission's decision will be based upon the existing record plus any evidence or affidavits submitted by the individual in support of his request. (c) In reopened cases where the original removal was based upon a finding of the em- ploying agency that the individual had engaged in prohibited political activity the Commission will secure from the employing agency any files or copies of files relating to the case and will conduct such further inquiry as the cir- cumstances may require. The final decision of the Commission will be based on this record plus any evidence or affidavits submitted by the individual in support of his request. (d) If in either of the cases described in paragraph (b) or (c) of this section the Com- mission finds by unanimous vote that the here- tofore established violation was not such as to warrant the individual's removal from the se Y~c, the Commission shall issue an order re~t ,V,,. 09A Qi `0> 6bl~e indi- vidual's future Federal employment. How- ever, no such revocation shall become effective until at least 90 days have elapsed following the date of removal of the individual. (e) A Commission revocation order issued in accordance with paragraph (d) of this sec- tion will merely clear the individual's record for further Federal employment and will not in itself effectuate such reemployment or require that the individual be reemployed in the position from which removed or any other position in the same agency.

(a) Applicants for competitive examination, or eligibles on any register, or officers or employees in the ex- ecutive branch, shall not directly or indirectly persuade, induce, or coerce, or attempt to persuade, induce, or coerce any prospective ap- plicant, applicant, or eligible to withhold filing application or to withdraw from competition or eligibility for positions in the competitive serv- ice for the purpose of either improving or injuring the prospects for appointment of any such applicant or eligible.
