THE WATCHDOG OF CIVIL SERVICE
h e Civil Service Reform Association is a small group
of high-minded men and women devoted to the pro­
tection and the im provement of Civil Service adm inistra­
tion. “ It is little but O’ My”— w h a t a champion of a
high principle and a practical plan for efficient public
administration.
W hen things are well in the Civil Service, the Associa­
tion is devoted chiefly to im provem ent and reform. (U n­
fortunately, things are seldom well in the total picture of
civil service in the United S tates).
W hen things are bad in Civil Service, the Reform As­
sociation becomes active in the courts, in legislative halls
and in Civil Service offices.
W hen things are very bad in Civil Service, the w atch­
dog growls louder and becomes more concentrated on
particu lar evils.
In its recent annual meeting, the Reform Association
refers directly to the New York State Civil Service Com­
mission and the New York City Civil Service Commission.
Of the State Commission, it reports:
“The State Civil Service Commission still persists in
extending exemptions of positions from competition and
thus fu rth e r limiting opportunities of those in the service
to attain more responsible posts, discouraging many from
continuing therein, and m aking it unattractive to those
who m ight otherwise be persuaded to seek careers there.
“ The pressure on it from prejudiced operating d e p a rt­
m ent heads, lacking confidence in the competitive system
and w ithout interest in resorting to its full potentialities,
combined with urgent dem ands of patronage-m inded poli­
tical leaders for a share of public positions for their fa ith ­
ful partisan followers, have m ade th e task of the commis­
sion more burdensome and trying th an ever."
The param ount issue is plainly stated th a t any form of
preference in Civil Service appointm ent and promotion is
“ in derogation of the m erit system.” The Reform As­
sociation would allow a limited and reasonable tem porary
percentage preference for veterans which would cancel
out in a few years b u t beyond th a t point it is ad am an t in
its stand for m erit and fitness as the sole criteria for civil
service jobs.
The Civil Service Em ploj’-ees Association has long en­
joyed the respect and the cooperation of the Reform
group. If we are to be ju d g ed by the company we keep
and th e friends we cherish, this high opinion of the Re­
form Association is a badge of merit we shall always
cherish.

'" ■''H E plan of Thom as L. Bransford to “pool” pro,v ..j
X examinations in certain common titles is a good 'j
It would tend to increase somew hat the promotional
portunities available to com petent employees, it J
reduce the terrific work-load of the Civil Service
mission, by enabling the examiners to work on fewer t
for a title; and this would have an im portant second
effect— speeding ap other promotion exams which
far behind schedule. The essential sanity of the ni
is evident when it is considered th a t the position
Senior Account Clerk, for example, exists in 207 separ
promotion units; Senior Stenographer in 200 pro] ®
units; and th a t 2,000 positions in the State service renni
the making and holding of examinations. Anythin}/ l
can increase the efficiency of the examining staff is gJj
to help the service.
•‘
However, the plan won’t work, nor will it be accei
able, if the personnel officers insist on using it as a ve
for enlarging their own power of hiring and firing ^
merit system is not strongly rooted in the by-passina
lists, hiring of provisionals, and the releasing at will,
in a trial period, of promoted employees. Yet in essen
this is w hat the personnel officers seek. These are coi
ditions which the employees and their Association canil
possibly accept— and the personnel officers should realij
it. Moreover, protections should be assured for those
existing lists.
The LEADER endorses the excellent basic machine
in the proposal. W e should like to see the plan accepte,
and we are glad th a t the flame of originality is makii
itself visible in the precincts of the Civl Service Cofl
mission.
But this endorsem ent does not include acceptance
conditions which reduce the existing protections f
employees.

ot the satellites on its orbit.
It may be enormously diflicult, and perhaps inad­
visable, to m ake a separation. It may be f a r more feasible
to approach the problem from the opposite aspect: th a t
a liberalized retirem ent system will help local commu­
nities by giving them greater stability. Once liberalized,
the system will include costs which will ap p ea r—properly
fio— as fundam ental and necessary costs of local govern­
ment. Moreover, the whole movement these days is tow ard
liberalized retirement, as evidenced by the new retire­
ment law for Federal employees. It is entirely possible to
think th a t changes improving the condition of retired
employees will meet with public approval, and th a t the
local communities will be carried along with the force
spiralling out of the central planet.
The Comptroller knows, of course, and almost im­
plicitly adm its in his speech, th a t the present system is
unsiitisfactory. He does not criticize any of the proposals
oi The Civil Service Employees Association on their merits,
but only on the score of costs. And even here, he does not
imply th a t the costs cannot be m et; he argues only th a t
certain local communities have not a t this time arranged
to meet them, P)-esumably those commuities have arranged
to meet the cost of sanitation, street repair, and public
woi ks. A strong movement from Albany would conceiv­
ably have the eft’ect of making these communities think
of retirem ent costs in the same category; and th a t is as
it should be.
Still a n o t h e r point: A large part of municipal costs
is n o w being met by the State. Would it be inconsistent,
in line with the theory th a t the State should underw rite
p«r‘t of the cost of local government, for it to underwrite
a portion of the retirem ent costs also ?
The LEADER respectfully asks Comptroller Moore
to review his basic approach.

Confident of Raise Oversea Jobs
Spof.ial to The LEADKR
WASHINGTON, Ju n e 7—While
com m ittees of b o th th e House and
S en ate have ta k en favorable a c ­
tion on m easures to increase pos­
ta l salaries, th e a p p a re n t inability
of th e Congressional leadership to
get together on a p la n of clear­
ance h as served to increase th e
feeling of u n c e rta in ty am ong
postal employees, said a sta te m e n t
of th e N ational F ederation of Post
Olfice Clerks.
Expects Bill Before Recess
S enator T a ft and S peaker M ar­
tin m et in an effort to reach a
solution. Both have given repeated
assurances th a t th e y favor th e
legislation an d have prom ised
support.
E. C. Hallbeck, Legislative R e­
presentative of th e F ederation, ex­
pressed confidence th a t a bill
would be enacted prior to th e ex­
pected recess or ad jo u rn m e n t of
Congress on Ju n e 19. S aying th a t
postal pay increases h ave th e v ir­
tually u nanim ous
su pp ort of
mem bers of Congress, h e added:
“T his evidence of support, coupled
w ith th e assurances of all recog­
nized leaders in Congress, is suffi­
cient reason to w a rra n t th e belief
th a t th is legislation will be en ­
acted w ithout u nreaso nable delay.
T h ere is no reason to believe th a t
th e promises m ade to your R epre­
sentatives will no t be kep t.”
