Summary:
A twelve-member legislative Commission on Extension of the Civil Service was created in 1939 to study the problems of extending
civil service to local governments. The Commission's investigation resulted in the "Fite Law" which provided for the administration
of civil service law and rules in all of New York's civil divisions. The Secretary's files document the development of legislation
on local civil service administration and the attitude of local officials towards civil service extension and information
on local public employment.
