T HE retirement of William A. Jump from his position of director of finance and budget officer of the U. S. Department of Agriculture on November 30, 1948, after fortytwo years of service in the department, is an event that causes deep regret not only to his associates in the department but also to his host of friends in Washington, in the field service, and in the American Society for Public Administration. His career as a public servant is and will remain a symbol of devotion to the public interest. His letter of resignation and President Truman's letter of acceptance are public documents of such significance that they are reproduced in Public Administration Review as tokens of the high achievement of which the public service at its best is capable
