Question is Submitted ¢o -Attorney General for a Decision. The Juestion whether the appoint- ment of state pelicemen comes within the scope of the state civil service low has been raised. The state Dolice commission, of which Senator John H. Perry of Southport is the president, has sub- mitted to the attorney ‘general a gor- mal question whether or not appoint- ments to the state police force must be frem a list certified to Dby the €ivil service commission. The atforney general has the matter under consid= eration. There is-an impression that it is im- practicable to force the state pelice department within the scope of the civil ‘service lJaw. It will be remem- Dbered that some time ago a similar questior was raised in regard to the appointiment of teachers in state in- stitutions, the question having been propounded to the attorney gemeral by the state board of cducation. The at- torney general gave an opinion that the teachers were exempt from the operation of the civil service law. In some respects the case of the state policemen is analogous to that of the teachers.
