Sixty-four-year-old Frances Per-
kins. storm center of labor rela-
tion* during the Roosevelt ad-
ministration, is coming back to
the Washington acene as a mem-
ber of the United State* civil serv-
ice commission.
President Truman Thursday
picked Miss Perkins, who resign-
ed in June. 1945, after serving 12
years as secretary of labor, for
the first important government
post which he has given to a
woman. She will fill the 812,000
a year vacancy caused by the re-i
signation of Mrs. Ludlile Foster
McMillin.
Miss Perkins, who In private
life is Mrs. Paul Wilson of New
York, was an Intimate of the late
President Roosevelt and was the
only woman ever to occupy a
cabinet seat. She has just written
a magazine article about the late
President-
Target of heavy criticism, she
held to her labor office through-
out the Roosevelt administration,
although the labor department,
meanwhile, was stripped of many\
■»f. its .powers with the sett ing up
labor relations board and other
agencies.
Miss Perkins stuck to her guns
with the backing of Mr. Roose-
velt ami carried on three month*
in the Truman administration un-
til she was succeeded by Secretary
Lewis B. Schwellenbach.
Mr, Roosevelt never admitted
publicly that Miss Perkin* was an
unsatisfactory secretary of labor
although his advisor* barraged
him with pleas, that she was in-
competent and a major obstacle
to labor peace. _—-—-------------
The President reportedly chose
her for hi* first cabinet st the
behest of Mrs. Roosevelt although
drawing the feminine vote into
the New Deal camp also was an
issue. She now will become a
member of ’he three-man commis-
sion which is responsible for reg-
ulating the federal civil service.
The commission was set up in
1883 to carry out th* "merit sys-
tem" as opposed to th* "spoils
