Calvin Coolidge: “I think your offices ought to provide each one of you with a copy of that book.”

Nothing special took place at the Cabinet this morning.

All competitors rated at 70 or more shall be eligible for appointment, and their names shall be placed on the proper register, according to their ratings.

The names of disabled veterans, their wives, and the widows of honorably discharged soldiers, sailors, and marines shall be placed above all others.

Examination papers shall be rated on a scale of 100, and the subjects therein shall be given such relative weights as the commission may prescribe.
