Letters to the Editors DOES OUR INSPECTION SYSTEM WORK? May 7, 1950 To THE EDITORS, AMERICAN FOREIGN SERVICE JOURNAL: The present inspection system is, I think, subject to abuse. In any case it fails to render the maximum benefit WELLBORN MOTORS, INC. to the Service. Admittedly, very few members of the public at large are even aware of the existence of Foreign Service CHRYSLER-PLYMOUTH inspectors. But some Congressmen, who consider the For¬ (DIRECT FACTORY DEALER) eign Service appropriations, probably are. More important, the inspection system can affect the attitudes of Foreign Service officers and employees and the impressions they make upon the public in the performance of their duties. It is even responsible for the advancement of certain officers and employees, and the retardation or separation of others. The essence of my criticism is that the Foreign Service inspectors, as senior and regular Foreign Service officers, are closely allied in habits, sympathies and, frequently, by personal acquaintance with the principal officers of each post they visit. Their inspection cannot be in any way- compared with the impersonal and unbiased examination of a corporation’s financial status which a firm of independent auditors renders annually to the stockholders, -or with the investigation of broader scope sometimes made by a firm of management engineers. Does Advance Notice Distort the Picture? What happens when an inspector visits a post? Usually the date of his visit is known well in advance, and every¬ thing is “spruced up” in anticipation of his arrival. The staff is put on the alert. When the inspector arrives he will, as likely as not, be the personal guest of the principal offi¬ cer; at least the principal officer will surely take pains to wine and dine him. The inspector will probably seek a brief interview with each junior officer and with some of the staff employees; in speaking with him, however, each such subordinate will be well aware that the inspector is really a “buddy” of the principal officer, and will govern HOMER BRETT, FSO (Ret’d) President his tongue accordingly. SIDNEY WELLBORN General Manager It will be obvious that this is written by a junior officer. I am, however, entirely sincere in saying that it has not ANDREW WAHL Sales Manager been inspired by any grievance against any individual in¬ spector. Nor do I mean to suggest that a deliberate collu¬ THOMAS TALBERT Service Manager sion has ever existed between Foreign Service inspectors and principal officers, to the detriment of the Service. My criticism is directed solely against the inspection method and the inherent attitudes it would seem to engender. Call SLigo 1333 1100 EAST-WEST HIGHWAY Must Inspectors be Recruited from the Service? Washington Directory SILVER SPRING, MD. It is my suggestion that the Inspectors’ Corps should be rigidly separated from the remainder of the Foreign Serv¬ ice. Obviously casual outsiders could not be recruited to this duty; the inspectors must be men of considerable back¬ ground and closely acquainted with the requirements of the Foreign Service. Nevertheless, the calling of a Foreign Service inspector is certaiidy a less specialized profession than that of an accountant, an efficiency expert, or a bank examiner. It seems probable that qualified persons, such as members of the State Department outside of the Foreign (Continued on page 5) SEPTEMBER. 1950 3 Aon$/ tfz/uefi/ I y «.

ROYAL SCARLET FINE FOODS THE AMERICAN FOREIGN SERVICE JOURNAL LETTERS TO THE EDITORS (Continued from page 3) Service, officers of other departments of the Government, or officers of private corporations, could be detailed to tem¬ porary tours of duty of one or two years as Foreign Serv¬ ice inspectors. Private organizations might willingly give their officers leave for this purpose. A Foreign Service of the maximum efficiency would obviously be in the interests of such organizations as General Electric or Sears, Roe¬ buck. The Service should benefit from the fresh point of view which representatives of such organizations might supply. To revert to the analogy of the auditing of a Corpora¬ tion’s records, it is obvious that there would be little con¬ fidence in the report of an accountant who was an intimate of the officers of the company or who was himself a regular officer thereof temporarily functioning as an “impartial” examiner. The Foreign Service has, in the Selection and Promotion and Review Boards deliberately attempted to establish im¬ partial methods and standards. The need for complete impartiality on the part of the Inspectors’ Corps is no less important; it should contribute both to better morale with¬ in the Service and to greater confidence on the part of the public. FSO-6 • The JOURNAL would welcome further comments on this subject. Meanwhile one other side of the picture was so well presented in the remarks of Chief Inspector Howard K. Travers ivhich were published in the January, 1949, News Letter that we are reprinting excerpts from them here.

To do this we need a continuance of the support heretofore given us, and the official assist- ance of the Legislature. We are confident that this little hand-book, furnished at the small cost of one dollar a volume, is indispensable to every legislator, State official and others, who can, at a moment's notice, refer to it for information of any sort connected with the politics and affairs of State.
