A farm boy from North Carolina, Horace D. Godfrey rose
to become administrator of the biggest business of its
kind in the world.
A career public servant, he is administrator of the
Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service of the
U.S. Department of Ag-
riculture.
Except for a tour of
duty with the Air Force,
he has been an employee
of the Department of
Agriculture since 1934.
A hallmark of his serv-
ice has been his enthusi-
asm for employee devel-
opment.
He has shown an un-
usual ability to create
ways in which perma-
nent and part-time work-
ers could further their
careers.
In 1958 he initiated
the nation's first ASCS
state-wide educational
training school for ASCS
county personnel.
During the past six
years Mr. Godfrey has
been a key person not
only in the administra-
tive direction, but in the
d ex-
presentation a n
planation of farm programs to the Congress and the public.
His contributions at the national level can best be
measured by the fundamental improvement that has taken
place in the food-agriculture economy.
Under his direct supervision, the vital commodity pro-
grams have increased farm income to the highest gross level
in history and the highest net in almost 20 years.
the point
They have succeeded in balancing supplies
where grains are no longer in surplus and cotton stocks
will be down by a fourth at the end of this marketing year.
Under his direction, ASCS programs and policies have
helped to bring U.S. agricultural exports to the highest
level in history in terms both of volume and dollar sales.
His influence also extends to the international scene.
For three years he served as chairman of the Standing Com-
mittee of the International Cotton Advisory Committee. He
has been a trusted advisor to the secretary of agriculture
on international matters.
. a man who has done so much to help create a
brighter future for the farmers and consumers of America."

THE ONLY woman physician to head a major medical pro-
gram in the Department of Medicine and Surgery of the
Veterans Administration is Dr Marjorie J. Williams.
She has been direc-
tor of the Pathology and
Allied Sciences Service
since 1963.
In the past three
years she has revitalized
the VA laboratory serv-
ice; established a coun-
cil of leading patholo-
gists to advise the
agency; and strengthen-
ed VA relations with
medical schools and or-
ganizations.
She is chairman of
the Inter-Agency Com-
mittee on Laboratory
Medicine - which she
organized; consultant to
a number of federal
agencies; and has pub-
lished many scientific
articles.
As chief of labora-
tory service for more
Wil-
D
r.
than 10 years,
liams provided the VA hospital at Temple, Texas, with out-
standing servic?. In 1962 she was appointed deputy director
of the service she now heads.
Dr. Williams has contributed significantly to the medical
program of the Veterans Administration. She has been active
in medical programs throughout the federal government and
in her profession, both nationally and internationally.
In her current job, Dr. Williams directs the activities of
195 laboratories employing a staff of 3,400, including 320
pathologists.
During the past decade, laboratory workloads have with
creased 100 percent. In her long range plans cope
the workload, Dr. Williams has revitalized the laboratory
service. Through her knowledge of the problem-and her
skill in presenting it-she was able to obtain expansion con-
cessions both from the agency and the Bureau of the Budget.
The quality of the VA medical program depends greatly
on cooperation with the medical schools. She has established
excellent relations with the various departments. She also
has secured their help in staffing laboratories and giving
special educational courses.
. she is without a doubt a distinguished physician,
scientist, administrator and homemaker, in a very rare com-
bination."

The 31-year government career of Philip N. Brownstein
has brought increased effectiveness and efficiency to
many government programs.
In 1935 he joined the Federal Housing Administration
as an assistant truck driver. He worked his way through
th
e ranks, serving as
clerk, audit supervisor,
and attorney.
During World War II
he served with the Ma-
rines. In 1946 he joined
the Veterans Administra-
tion as a loan guaranty
agent. He helped launch
the G.I. loan program
and was responsible for
a collection policy for
the program.
By 1958 he was named
director of VA's Loan
Guaranty Service. He
was able to improve the
service to the veteran
while cutting the cost
to the government.
In 1961 he became the
chief benefits director.
In this job he was re-
sponsible for compensa-
tion and pensions, reha-
bilitation, loan guaranty,
vocational training and
education.
It was in this capacity that he broadened the use of
automatic data processing equipment to provide more effi-
cient and faster service to veterans.
He returned to the Federal Housing Administration in
1963 when he was appointed FHA commissioner. He has
worked consistently since that time to improve the level of
service provided by his agency.
This philosophy will continue to serve him well as
assistant secretary-commissioner in the Department of Hous-
ing and Urban Development.
Monuments to the success of his leadership can be found
throughout the nation. He developed an honors award pro-
gram to recognize excellence in residential design. He has
initiated rehabilitation programs for housing in blighted
areas.
His government career has ? been one of contribution,
dedication, accomplishment and service. His many pro-
cedural reforms and innovations have resulted in savings
of several millions of dollars, while providing better service
to the public.
"Thank you for your recognition of the practical signifi-
cance of beauty, and for the procedures you are establishing
to emphasize it in the activities of FHA."

TWO MAJOR federal social security programs have been
organized and directed by Arthur E. Hess. First was the
disability insurance program in 1955. Next was the new
h
lth
ea
insurance pro-
gram which went into
effect in 1965.
Both are complex
programs. Each involved
intricate liaison between
government and profes-
sional health personnel
and associations.
The skill with which
he developed this liaison
is paying dividends in
the success of the Medi-
care program.
These major accom-
plishments have high-
lighted a federal career
which began in 1939
when Hess was just out
of PriQceton.
The social security
program, then in its in-
fancy, captured his im-
agination and made him
anxious to make some
contribution to its suc-
cess.
This was the seed from which has sprung a government
career of more than 27 years in the social security program.
With the passage of the disability insurance legislation.
in 1954, Hess was named top executive in the Division of Dis-
ability Operations. Within months he had the mammoth
operation working smoothly.
Under his leadership the government negotiated 56
agreements with all of the states and territories.
He provided vigorous leadership in the major effort to
get key people in each of the states oriented toward making
the disability program part of their own operations.
Within six months after applications first eoul4` be ac-
cepted, the Bureau's district offices had received'. 143,000
applications. The program has grown tremendously. '
In 1965, Hess was called upon to'organize the task force
to do the preliminary planning for the Medicare program. He
brought his skill at inter-government relationships into play
and ironed out all difficulties in getting states to meet ad-
ministrative and fiscal responsibilities.
Hess-has had a career marked by many outstanding
achievements and by notable contributions to the nation.
" .. much of the success that the disability program has
enjoyed is directly attributable to his splendid leadership."

RUNNING 'a United States office in a foreign country
requires a considerable amount of skill and tact. Barbara
White, associate director of the U.S. Information Agency, is
richly endowed w i t h
both. She has served
with distinction at posts
both in the United States
and abroad.
Miss White joined
the government in 1942.
She entered the newly-
created Office of War
Information as a re-
search analyst. This was
a new and untried field
of endeavor for the gov-
ermnent. Miss White's
ability to project new
ideas and programs was
recognized from the very
start.
In 1944 she was as-
signed to one of the im-
portant overseas offices
in Cairo. The record she
made in this assignment
won her a State Depart-
ment job when hostilities
ceased in 1946. She was
assigned as a regional specialist in the Department.
In 1947 she left the government temporarily to become
program secretary for the League of Women Voters.
She rejoined the government in 1951 and was assigned
to the U.S. Information Service in Rome as Cultural Affairs
Assistant,. She had a key role in planning program content.
In 1956 she was moved to Turin, Italy, as the Branch
Public Affairs Officer. Despite Latin resistance to a woman
runr.ing an office, she did an outstanding job.
In 1958 she was transferred to Washington where she
served as Desk Officer for Italy, Spain and Portugal and
later as Cultural Affairs Planning Officer. In this latter
position she developed plans for the Agency's work in the
cultural field, and perhaps mad- her most valued contribution
to the government.
From 1962 to 1965 she served as Public Affairs Officer
in Santiago, Chile. As in Italy, she again was able to over.
come Latin resistance to women officials.
In 1966 she was appointed associate director of the
Agency for Policy and Research. This is the number two job
in the Agency's Career Foreign Service. It also is the highest
ranking job ever held by a woman in the organization.
" . , one of those rare individuals who, although possess-
ing talents in abundance, remains a warm human being able
to inspire friendship, respect and cooperation."

REVOLUTIONARY breakthroughs in the frontiers of flight
are credited to Dr. Thompson, director of the NASA
Langley Research Center. His vision in anticipating research
requirements has pro-
vided some of the most
advanced research facili-
ties in the nation.
He began his career
as a junior aeronautical
engineer in 1926 with
the Langley Memorial
Aeronautical Laboratory.
From 1926 to 1943
he was engaged in per-
forming and supervising
flight research projects.
One of his major achieve-
ments was the develop-
ment of a basic pattern
of specifications for han-
dling qualities of air-
craft.
In 1943 he was ap-
pointed assistant chief of
research, a newly-created
position in the Langley
Lab which by then had
grown to 2,200 em-
In this capacity
ployees
-
he developed ways to acquire data on speeds up to and be-
yond the speed of sound.
The wind tunnel design concept was developed under
his leadership, providing controlled lab experiments in
transonic flight.
For 15 years, until 1960, he filled the key technical
position at Langley. His skills and talents helped develop
many of the concepts which put the U.S. into the space age.
For the last six and one-half years he has been director
of the NASA Langley Research Center.
Dr. Thompson has been particularly effective in fore-
seeing research needs for the national space and aeronautical
programs. He has always been keenly aware of the need for
the proper tools for advanced research, and of the rapid ob-
solescence of research facilities. Consequently, under his
expert guidance, the Langley Research Center is one of the
nation's foremost leaders in aeronautical and space research.
Within the aerospace profession, his ability is widely
recognized. He and his staff are continually consulted on
scientific matters by military services, other agencies and
representatives of foreign governments.
11. . - his astute organizational ability is borne out by his
organization of a research staff which had made historic
contributions in the realm of aerospace flight.'

DURING 21 years of civilian government service Mr. Smith
has demonstrated to an outstanding degree the qualities
of leadership, imagination, integrity and devotion to duty.
These qualities h a v e
served him well within
three different agencies.
His career span s
service in the Office of
Price Administration, the
the Veterans Administra-
tion, and the Internal
Revenue Service.
He advanced from a
grade of P-2 in Decem-
ber 1945 to GS-15 as area
field director with the
VA in July 1958. In the
following eight years the
Internal Revenue Serv-
ice promoted him from
GS-15 ultimately to dep-
u t y commissioner on
June 7, 1966.
In his role as "sec-
ond man" in the IRS, he
is responsible for the ef-
fective performance of
all operations in the serv-
ice. He also assists the
commissioner in giving executive leadership to all the Serv-
ice's functions and activities.
As director of the Systems Development Division, he was
responsible for design of an automatic data processing system
for maintenance of tax accounts. This represents a milestone
in the history of the Internal Revenue Service and is a
testimonial to Smith's leadership and imagination.
A saving of five and one-half million dollars a year was
made possible by action of the Committee on Resources
Utilization while he was committee chairman.
The excellence of his work has been recognized on many
occasions. In 1960 he shared in a group award for the devel-
opment of the IRS automatic data processing system.
In 1963 he was given the Commissioner's Award for his
role in achieving economies in tax administration.
In 1966 he was presented the Secretary's Meritorious
Service Honor Award for the quality of his work, his personal
integrity and his dedication to public service.
Many of these awards stemmed from leadership of team
efforts. His skill in inspiring his subordinates made the
achievements possible.
" .. exemplifies the finest characteristics of the career
service and meets in every respect the selection criteria for
this high award."

ers of many foreign
areas. This has made it possible for him to exert considerable
influence in the economic policies of those nations.
In Pakistan, for example, he directed an AID effort
which was largely instrumental in placing the Pakistan eco-
nomic development program in the forefront among develop-
ing nations.
In addition to his leadership abilities, he has won a repu-
tation for fairness and depth of view. He has used wisdom,
discernment and sensitivity in making hard decisions on
necessary cutbacks and phasing out of certain programs.
During MacDonald's tenure as mission director in Pak-
istan, the mission was awarded a unit Distinguished Public
Service Award-the highest award it is possible for the
agency to bestow.
He won added recognition in 1955 for his role in the
development of the agency-wide system known as "Operations
Blueprint."
Before entering government service in 1950, he was an
instructor in the Department of Political Science at Princeton.
He also acted as a consultant to various federal and state
agencies including the Office of Education.
" .. has served with distinction in a steady career pro-
gression culminating in his assignment as the director of the
largest U.S. AID mission in the world."

Dr. Stahl's staff leadership had an important role in the
development of federal salary reform. The reforms provided
in 1962 paved the way toward ultimate comparability in
federal pay.
The federal merit promotion program has been improved
because of Dr: Stahl's ability to strike a fine balance between
the flexibility needed by management and the equity deserved
by the employees-
The Government Employees Training Act controls vari-
ous plans designed to improve government service and
employee chances for advancement. Dr. Stahl's direct per-

for the many and varied developmental opportunities avail-
able to federal managers and employees-
He received the Civil Service Commissioners' Award for
Distinguished Service in 1960 and the Stockberger Award in
1961. In 1965 he was elected president of the Public Person-

THE ACHIEVEMENTS of David D. Thomas span a govern-
ment career of 29 years. The excellence of that service
is demonstrated by his record of progression from an assistant
Airways Traffic Con-
troller to the position of
deputy FAA administra-
tor.
Many honors and
recognitions have come
to him during his career.
He has received the
President's Award for
Exceptional Civil Serv-
ice, the Rockefeller Pub-
lic Service Award, and
the Laura Taber Barbour
air safety award.
His aviation career
in federal service dates
back to 1938 when he en-
tered on duty as a con-
troller in the Pittsburgh
Airways Control Center.
He served in positions of
increasing responsibility
until 1946 when he was
put in charge of the Civil
Aeronautics Administra-
tion's International Serv-
ices for three and one-half years. By 1956, he had become
director of the Air Traffic Service in the CAA.
In 1963 he was appointed to the newly-created position
of Associate Administrator for Programs for the Federal
Aviation Agency. In that post he had direct responsibility
for determining the allocation and utilization of airspace and
the regulation of flight operations.
In his many capacities he has played a major role in
establishing and maintaining the environment in which the
entire aeronautical and air transport industry thrives in the
United States.
During the past two decades a 15-fold increase in safety
was achieved giving the U.S. air carriers a safety record un-
surpassed in the history of aviation.
During the same period, a flight across the continent
was changed from a bumpy, six-stop affair to a five-hour
non-stop jet cruise.
The growth of the air transport business in the same
period has been equally impressive with a 20 percent increase
each year.

THE SUCCESS STORIES of the
ten career civil servants who won
the Career Service Awards of the
League give an inkling of the jobs
open to able young people in govern-
ment today. But there's much more to
the story. Their successes, adven-
tures, rewards, satisfactions -though
admittedly not typical-are shared by
hundreds of thousands of other public
employees. And more than nine
million people who staff national,
state and local government share
these rewards today in every kind of
occupation. They range from man-
aging and manning thousands of so-
cial services to the frontiers of space.

ice. The exciting frontiers of yester-
year may be swiftly vanishing with
the buffalo, yet new ones continue to
beckon the courageous on to in-
triguing pursuits. In urban America,
on the farms, and in the nation's wel-
fare services; in helping developing
nations or the U. S. taxpayer, these
ten modern pioneers are engaged in
ventures that pale past progress. In

conquest of space; in communicating

John W. Macy, Jr.
Chairman, U. S. Civil Service Commission
The primary objective of the Federal civil service is to
achieve and maintain a Government work force of the
high quality exemplified by the recipients of the National
Civil Service League's Career Service Awards. The
purpose of the Civil Service Act and the merit system it
created was to provide continuity as well as competence
in Government service, and the careers of these out-
standing public servants show that that purpose can be
achieved.
Within the last few years there has been increased
emphasis on excellence in the Federal Government
service. This emphasis takes on added urgency in the
context of today's world. President Johnson said in his
Budget Message of January 24, 1967: "This nation can,
and I believe it must, continue to move forward in de-
fense of freedom against aggression; in the search for
international peace and cooperation; and in the effort to
improve the quality of American life."
Civilian employees of the Government are deeply
involved in each of these efforts: in supporting the mili-
tary action in Vietnam and helping the citizens of that
unhappy land to build a viable economy for peace; in
diplomatic, informational, and economic efforts to pro-
mote peace around the world; in the implementation oan unprecedented number of forward-looking programs
which promise to enrich the quality of life, the justice,
and the opportunity offered by American society.
In pursuing these goals, it is not enough to pass laws.
Every law must be competently executed if the program
is to succeed-executed by civil servants of the highest

ability. We are obligated to assure effective and eco-
nomical management of governmental programs, both
old and new. And now, more than ever in the past, we
are obligated to maintain close and harmonious working
relationships with State, county, and local governments
-our partners in a new and creative federalism.
The President has emphasized that federalism is not a
one-sided partnership. On the contrary, our task now is
to improve Federal programs and administration while we
do more to help State and local governments strengthen
their machinery for planning and management. Capable
personnel are essential for effective service to the pub-
lic at the State and local level, no less than at the national
level.
President Johnson has recommended, and the Civil
Service Commission has submitted to Congress, legisla-
tion to provide financial and technical assistance to
strengthen State and local personnel management and to
permit interchange of personnel between the Federal
Government and State and local governments.
Heavy and increasing demands upon the Federal Gov-
ernment and its civilian personnel, as they support the
military effort overseas and the battle to improve the
quality of American life at home, cannot be permitted
to bring about an uncontrolled rise in costs. In the same
budget message quoted above, the President said: "We
will continue to offset a significant part of increased
costs of important new programs by increasing effi-
ciency throughout the Federal Government. Savings
from this source have been substantial ... I have made
it clear to the heads of all Departments and Agencies
that they are to continue their emphasis on cost reduc-
tion during the coming year."
The challenge of increasing demands for results with
increased economy is very real in the Federal service
today. Such a challenge does not reduce the need for
high-quality recruits, nor does it reduce the advancement
opportunities for competent and ambitious employees.
Rather, it increases them, and our "quest for quality"
continues unabated.
We know that our goals can be met only if we employ
the most talented and energetic people we can find, and
develop each employee's potential ability to the highest
degree, to assure the best utilization of human resources
in serving the public interest.
Under the Federal merit system all citizens may compete
on equal terms for Government employment. Absolutely
no discrimination on the basis of politics, race, sex,
religion, national origin, or physical handicap is tolerated
in the Federal civil service. The merit principle controls
not only open competition and selection for appoint-
ment, but opportunities for training, career develop-
ment, and promotion as well.
In Government service, competent and well-prepared
young men and women will find work that is always
interesting and often exciting, that makes use of their
talents and training, and that provides room for advance-
ment and rewards for excellence. They will find work
that matters, that serves some real purpose in the world.
They will find top-quality leaders, and competent, stim-
ulating associates; and they will find fair treatment
without favoritism or prejudice, good pay equitably
assigned, enlightened employee-management relations,
and modern-day financial benefits.
But the strongest attraction of Government service is
not these fundamentals of a good personnel system,
important as they are. It is the significance of the work
itself, and above all, the sense of personal worth and
personal satisfaction that comes from contributing di-
rectly to the strength of our Government and the welfare
of all Americans. This is one of the most valuable com-
pensations of Federal service-one to which no mone-
tary price-tag can he assigned. Yet many successful
career men and women, expressing the same thought in
various terms, tell me that this is the one form of com-
pensation that counts the most. It is offered to such a
degree by no other field of employment.
There are indeed new challenges in today's Federal
service. There are also great rewards.

effectively function would be through
a campaign to elevate the prestige of
the public service. This "image" of
government service had suffered from
citizen apathy toward government,
from the seemingly ingrained Ameri-
can hostility to government bureau-
cracies, and from the rigidities of civil
service that had come about. Thus,
the League inaugurated its now fa-
mous Career Service Awards program
to promote quality in the public serv-
ice by honoring outstanding career
employees.
In 1963, the League again examined
itself. And it found itself ill-equipped
for the critically important tasks with
which it was confronted. Government
-employing 15% of the work force
and spending over fifty billions of
dollars annually on direct, nonmili-
tary payrolls-had become the largest
"industry" in our society and its
pervasive influence was such that a
strong vehicle to enable closer citi-
h
zens' participation and concern wit
overnmental efficiency was needed.

THIS ISSUE of Good Government is designed as a public service to honor quality
in the public service, encourage excellence, and to interest the ablest in seeking
government careers. It presents the League's accolade to ten men and women
who found rewarding careers in the public service and tells of their career suc-
cesses. The Federal Times, the lively newspaper for civilians in government,
has performed a valuable public service by making this publication possible.
The National Civil Service League, the nonpartisan citizens organization founded
in 1881 to promote efficiency, quality and economy in government, is proud to
honor the recipients of our Career Service Awards and present this publication
as a useful document for educators, recruiters, public administrators, civil
servants, civic groups, students and others who have an interest in helping our
governments at all levels, which today employ 10,000,000 people, attract and
retain the ablest for government service.
RECENT ISSUES of Good Government have featured: "The Presidency and the
Civil Service"-highlights of U.S. Presidents and their role in developing civil
service, with facsimile reproductions of original never-before published letters
from Presidents T. Roosevelt, Cleveland, Taft, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge,
Hoover, Franklin Roosevelt; "Public Personnel Problems"-Articles on the
challenge of politics, the curse of patronage and the crisis of performance; and
other articles on ethics in government, abandoning patronage in the postal
services, modernizing public personnel management, and political activities
of public employees.
FUTURE ISSUES of Good Government A Quarter Billion $ for Training, Performance, Education-Analyses
are planned on such topics as: and evaluation of two Federal proposals that would pay states,
localities, universities, organizations to develop and educate public
employees, strengthen personnel management . . . Views & Per-
spectives on State-Local Government-The public's view; reforms
needed; promoting and recognizing quality. in the career civil
service . . . Political Neutrality & The Public Service-A Policy
Statement on a critical issue ... Lawyers, Courts & Civil Service-
Legal and government authorities write on civil service for govern-
ment lawyers and reform in the administration of justice-

Edward J. Bloch is not only a top engineer but
a superb administrator as well. This valuable
"mix" of abilities has ensured his successful
4 performance with the Army Engineers, where
he started in 1931, and with the Manhattan
District-the wartime precursor of the AEC.
Having progressed steadily along with the
growth of AEC, Mr. Bloch now serves--in es-
sence-as an executive vice president for the
commission. His colleagues testify to his many
outstanding traits, but they especially appre-
ciate his unique capacity to operate ably un-
der tension and pressure.
More than 20 years distinguished service in
Treasury as a top government lawyer preceded
John K. Carlock's promotion in 1962 to his
present post. An Arizonian, Mr. Carlock first
. came to government as a law clerk. In his pres-
ent assignment, he has presented dramatic
evidence of his ability to elicit top perform-
ance from his staff. In the three Fiscal Service
-bureaus u'ncler his? aegis-, substantially- de-
creased staffs have actually handled an im-
mense upsurge of workload items and other
new functions.
A thoroughgoing devotion to excellent per-
formance in a wide variety of assignments
has marked the brilliant government career
of Millard Cass. After conducting a private
law practice, Mr. Cass in 1941 joined the Se-
curities and Exchange Commission, moving
from there to the National Labor Relations
Board. In 1946 he began his career with Labor
as Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of
Labor. Subsequently, he has served as the
topranking civil servant with several Secre-
taries of Labor-
The development of Complex 39-the install-
ation from which the Apollo program launches
take place-is the crowning achievement of
Dr. Kurt H. Debus' career. His leadership was
pivotal in both the design and construction of
the famed Apollo launch complex. Further, he
has been responsible for many of the tech-
nical advances in launch technology, and for
the formation of the government/industry
launch team which has carried out more than
150 successful launches, including several
---nota-bie firsts-. Dr. Debus entered-tJ-govern-
ment service in 1946.
in a career of 25 years with Foreign Service,
in posts ranging from Wellington to Stockholm
to Seoul to Hong Kong to Djakarta, Marshall
Green has unfailingly demonstrated those
qualities of courage, integrity and talent which
are so vital to the public service-whether
domestic or foreign. The fact that he has served
in Indonesia with distinction during a period
(1965 to 1969) of great stress in that country
4 speaks eloquently for his superior qualities.
He is presently Assistant Secretary of State
designate for East Asian and Pacific Affairs.
Raymond A. loanes is a distinguished product
of the career civil service. From his first rating
as a GS-3 trainee with Agriculture, he has
moved steadily to a leadership position as an
expert in international agriculture. Promotions
bearing ever greater responsibility and pres-
tige have taken him to posts in the field of
food supply management, including a tour as
chief of food rationing with military govern-
ment in Germany. As head of the FAS, he has
played a key role in upping U.S. agricultural
exports, from 3.1. billion to above 6.0 in each
of the past five years.
Irving J. Lewis has brought to his federal serv-
ice a brilliance of intellect and superior man-
agerial talents. He has used these qualities in
26 years of top assignments which also called
on his versatility and his commitment to so-
cial justice. Lewis' co-workers, from both Civil
Service and Foreign Service days, praise his
10work in public administration, program anal-
ysis and public policy development in trans-
portation, economic regulation, foreign af-
fairs, health and welfare. He earned his pres-
ent post by helping to shape the laws, the
budgets, the organization for the vastly ex-
panded delivery of federal health care.
Joseph J. Liebling is justly famed for his skill
in the controversial field of security. He has
repeatedly sought and found a harmonious
balance between maintaining the govern-
ment's security interests, while at the same
time protecting the individual's constitutional
rights. Associates, both in and out of govern-
ment, speak highly of his sturdy fairness and
honesty. They applaud his ability to commu-
nicate with non-governmental groups. Gov-
ernment, economics and international law
have been his fields of expertise brought to
his 27-year government career which he
started with the War Department as an assist-
ant messenger.
Ensuring that Americans will enjoy safe, ef-
ficient and advanced air transportation has
been George S. Moore's mission since he
joined the CAA in 1945. He has built an ex-
traordinary record in the development of up
to date methods of evaluation of aircraft air-
worthiness. He is known for evolving new
concepts in accident prevention and investi-
gation. His list of achievements is all the more 110.
striking in view of the fact that it was compiled
.at a time of fantastic growth. in_the aviation_
field.
Col. Lawrence K. White "retired" in 1947 to
the Central Intelligence Group after his out-
standing Army career came to a close when he
was wounded in action. He has given two
careers and 40 years to government service.
The Group became the CIA, and Col. White
led in the development of the worldwide
peacetime intelligence service His mana-
gerial and creative talents were particularly
required in the setting up of this first central
intelligence organization in American history.
In subsequent years, Col. White has served as
a key figure in the administration of this far-
flung organization.

THE WASHINGTON EVENING STAR
The yearly career Service Awards Program constitutes one of the NCSL's major
projects in its drive to bring about a healthy, dynamic public personnel system
a system able to deal constructively with the flood of demands pressing today
on the public service.
Clearly. in this era we cannot expect government to cope if it must depend on a
shoddy staff with low morale and even lower responsiveness to the public it serves.
Fortunately. it does not have to. For, as the National Civil Service League knows,
government is served by thousands upon thousands of highly Competent public
employees who like the challenge and variety of public service. .
At the same time, the League knows that these employees need encouragement
which a citizen group - such as the League-can provide. The League is aware. as
well, of the many other public service goals it can help achieve. So, since 1955
the League has presented its colorful Career Service Awards Program to.
? recognize career public employees for significant contributions
? encourage excellence in government service
? promote public appreciation of quality In government
? stimulate able young people to build government Careers
Yearly. the League picks ten representative career public servants to honor at a
gala Awards Banquet and Dance. These winners receive a citation, a gold watch
and $1,000 tax tree.
Business firms. organizations, individuals interested in a quality public service
sponsor this program. They join the President of the United States, cabinet officers,
legislators, government officials and others to laud the Awardees. The world press
reports this colorful occasion.

SERVICE LEAGUE

ganization founded in 1881 to promote ef-
