RULE XXIII. The Civil Service Commission will make appropriate regulations for carrying these rules into effect. RULE XXIV. Every violation by any officer in the executive civil service of these rules, or of the eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, or fourteenth sections of the civil-service act, relating to political assessments, shall be good cause for removal.
