The 80th Anniversary of the National Civil Service League
The National Civil Service League is proud to present
its seventh annual Career Service Awards to ten outstand-
ing employees of the Federal Government. These men and
women exemplify the highest characteristics of career
government service: competence, efficiency, character,
and continuity of service.
The National Civil Service League is a nonpartisan
civic organization representing the public interest in the
public service. Founded in 1881 to spearhead the drive
against the spoils system, it has always been in the fore-
front of personnel progress. It is the only citizen group
in the country working continuously to improve and
modernize public personnel management at all levels of
government.

Mr. Hunter has made outstanding contributions to public administration in the
newest and most rapidly growing Federal department, the Department of IW?ith,
Education and Welfare. His inspiring leadership, dedication, and devotion to
public service eased the difficult early periods when disjointed, independent
programs were being administratively unified in the Department's predecessor,
the Federal Security Agency in 1948. His outstanding grasp of organization
problems has succeeded in maintaining a high degree of coordination and inte-
gration between diverse programs. He has created a. cohesive and effective ad-
