S.
Dyer, lieutenant, United States Navy, in charge of the Hydrographic
Office, Navy Department, requesting that Francis A. Lewis, at New York
City, and Joseph T. McMillan, of San Francisco, may be noncompetitively
examined for the positions of assistants at the branch hydrographic
offices at those places, respectively, under General Rule III, paragraph
2 (_e_), stating that the positions of assistants at those offices
require men specially fitted by a technical nautical education, and
therefore such as is only obtained in the Navy, and that the young men
referred to are recent graduates of the Naval Academy and have been
honorably discharged from the service.
"The positions named in this communication, and similar positions at
other branch hydrographic offices, being regarded as in the classified
departmental service in the Department of the Navy, and subject to
examination, and in view of the qualifications required in such
positions and of the fact that the service is to be rendered at points
remote from the city of Washington, it is deemed impracticable to fill
these places by competitive examination. It is therefore ordered that
they be included among the places to be filled by noncompetitive
examination under the provision of General Rule III, clause 2
(_e_), and that the President be asked to approve this order."
The Commission respectfully requests that you indorse this communication
with your approval of the action above quoted and return it as the
authority of the Commission for including the places mentioned among the
noncompetitive examination places under General Rule III, clause 2
(_e_).
