I had it to do over again, I ’d pick a Civil Service job.” Though the Budget Director not under Civil Service, he retains his Civil Service status, would autom atically be<^otne a Budget Examiner if ^'^ything happened to his presjob.

DELEHANTY 1 1 5 EAST 15 ST., N. Y. C. A lon g-sta n d in g threat to c ity -w id e prom otion lists was spifced last w e e k w h e n the Court of A p p e a ls u pheld the Ap, p e lla te D iv isio n and the S u p rem e C ourt in th e case of Abrams vs. Kern, e nding a long court battle. In its action, the court up-^" h e ld t h e r u lin g o f a lo w e r t r ib u n a l w h i c h d ir e c te d t h e appointm ent of eligibles on the city-w ide promotion list for Clerk, Grade 3, to positions in the Dept, of Welfare, w hich are held by provisionals under the title of Office Manager. The incumbents are temporary employees under the LivingstonWadsworth Law. They were transferred to the Welfare Dept, from the old ERB. They claimed th a t they were entitled to com ­ pete for their positions and that they should be given credit for their experience. They also claimed th a t the title of Office Manager was not equivalent to Clerk, Grade 3, and that citywide promotion lists could not be used to fill their jobs. The Abrams petitioners con ­ tended th a t the temporary em ­ ployees were serving illegally: th a t they had no preferential rights in exam s or appointments; and th a t city-wide promotion tests were legal. In the Court of Appeals it was argued th at the practice of the Municipal Civil Service Commis­ sion in holding city-wide promo- tion exam s was illegal. This poin* was not raised specifically in ;Speeial Terms Court; but the ■ commission assumes that the Court of Appeals, by afflrmino the lower courts’ ruling on the Abrams case, has approved the validity of holding promotion , exams on a city-w ide basis. The commission, therefore, will con. tinue certifications on that basij y e ste r d a y by C. A. Van H o r n ,| president of the Technical E n ­ g in e e r s’ Union, Local 65.

Likes Complaint Corner While I have no complahit whatever to make, I am glad that The Leader is giving space to those who feel that they are suffering injustices. In my opinion, “blind-alley” jobs are the worst feature In governm ent employment. They put a man in harne.ss. Some call it a gilded one, but even th a t is burdensome. Why cannot Civil Service offer a real future, in prospect at least, as other em ­ ployment does? My letter may sound pointless, but it is merely the singere e x ­ pression of another government employee who feels that when the time comes for legitimate com plaint he will find a medium to express his troubles.

According to the revised key, adopted by the Commission two m onths ago, any answer is acceptable for four of th e questions. Under normal circum stances these four queries would be eliminated and the papers marked on a basis of 131 questions. Reason for the Commission’s action: ThP marking m achine works better when all the questions are in. So, every one of the 15,000 persons who took th e exam in June will be given four “corrects” no m atter w hat their origi­ nal answers were. Incidentally, the Commission estim ates Dec. 15 as the date when the list will be ready.
