Job prospects grew extremely dark last week for 565 provisional Social In­
vestigators in New York City’s Department of Welfare, Board of Child Welfare,
Department of Hospitals, and Department of Correction. They grew dark be­
cause the Municipal Civil Service Commission announced that it would speed
the job of replacing them from the new Social Investigator eligible list and that
the whole replacement job would be finished early this Spring.

The present list for Fireinsin expires December 15, 1941. All of the eligibles on the present Fatrolman l.Ist should be appointed before that time. Consequently, both examinations should be held in 1941.
Because of the keen competition and type of exam ination, few can prepare properly In less than 18
months.
Prepare for these attractive positions M'here 80 to 90% of the personnel of the Police Department
from the Chief inspector to the newest roolile prepared. Ask any member of either department and be
guided by his advice.
Despite reports in a
Civil Service newspaper
that a State exam for
Prison Guard would be
announced
soon,
The
Leader has learned that
the State Civil Service
Department is not plan­
ning to announce a test
for the position in the near
future.
In an exclusive state­
ment to The Leader, Miss
Grace A. Reavy, president
of the Commission, said:
“We haven’t thought of
holding such a test. We
haven’t been asked to by
the State Correction De­
partment and there are
several hundred names re­
maining on the present
eligible list.
“We certainly wouldn’t
announce a Prison Guard
test before next Fall,” she
added.

Kem-Harvey Feud
Queens Borough Pr^ident George U. Harvey wants Paul J. Kern, presi­
dent of the Municipal Civil Service Commission, to break the State law. So
says Kern. The matter came up this week when Harvey wrote to Governor Leh­
man, charging that Kern plans to dismiss 300 war veterans in the Welfare Dept.
This violates a State law, Harvey said, that “special exams be given veterans in
the Public Welfare Dept, with a view toward making^ them Civil Service ap­
pointees in recognition of their experience.”

Off’n On the Record: As this column forecast, budget cuts have hit
the field forces harder than the staffs of the same agencies in Wash^
ington. And every day, by action of Congress, the cuts are getting
deeper and deeper. From some unexplained cause, injuries among
Federal workers have been increasing, the U. S. Employees Com­
pensation Commission reported. Most of the injuries, and the increases in injuries, have been in the Post Office Department.

87,000 NEW YORKERS applied for the job of keeping the
city clean. Of these, approximately 3,000 w ill make the
eligible list, and about 2,500 will get jobs over a four-year
period. For the first time in the city’s history, the job foi Sanitation Man has been made competitive. And to obtain the best
men, a group of physical tests were devised by New York Uni­
versity’s Prof. Francis P. Wall. Above is a test to determine
strength. To rate a perfect score, the candidate must lifv with
each arm a weight of 80 lbs. In the recent police examination,
75 lbs. in one hand, 60 lbs. In the other, gave the candidate
100 per cent.
1
STILL A THIRD TEST of strength is this one— lifting a 120Ih. barrel with its bottom over the shoulder. In the ordinary
rounds of his job* it happens very rarely that a man is re­
quired to lift such a weight by himself. But to the examiners
he must show his ability to do it before they will certify him as
of sufficient strength to hold down the job. In the preliminary
test held by Prof. Wall at the 105th Field Artillery in the Bronx,
almost all the men did v/ell on this feat. They were a group
selected from the physical education department of New York
University and from the Sanitation Department. The Sanita­
tion men had worked with Prof. Wall over ft period of seven
weeks.
3
THE TESTS ARE designed to determine three qualities; Strength, agility, endinance. In the second part—for determining agility—the candidate covers 50
of space while overcoming a series of obstacles. He must do the whole job in
seconds to score 100 per cent. He begins by running 10 yards, taking a broad jump oi
9 feet, running another 10 yards, then jumping over a three-foot-high hurdle. In
preliminary tests, few of the men were able to make the 12-second deadline, though
most of them finished the variety of tasks successfully. On the whole, the men who
came from the Sanitation Department did somewhat better than those from New York
University. The N.Y.U. boys were trying the tests for the first time, however. The
contests for agility are somewhat less difficult than those devised for the police examThe men selected from this series of tests must be strong, active individuals, for they
are exposed to the hazards of traffic and outdoor accidents even more than policen»eu

SANITATION MEN must carry heavy
weights. Their abdominal muscles
must be powerful, capable of w ith­
standing the stresses which cause hernia
and other muscular troubles. A test
which brings the abdominal muscles into
play is one in which the candidate lifts
his trunk from the ground while holding
a 60-lb. dumbbell on his shoulders. He
may not lift his feet during this perform­
ance. Prospects for jobs in the Police
Department took a similar test, but they
were required to lift a weight of only
40 lbs. to make a perfect score. It is felt
by various officials and by Prof. Wall that
the Sanitation Man requires greater phy­
sical strength than the cop.

Leader I’hotos—OininllvU
MOST SPECTACULAR of all the tasks is this one— requiring
the candidate to climb a perfectly smooth, 8-foot-high wall.
The way to do it is to take a flying leap upward, when about
two feet from the wall, catch the top and hold it firmly with
the hands, press, the. rubber soles of sneekers into the wood of
the wall, and climb upward. The wall is a “tight” one, which
means there aren’t any loose boards to provide a grip for the
feet. Reaching the top, the man scales down the other side,
touches the fioor and runs forward.
6
I^TER he has successfully gone over
Y hurdle, the prospective Sanitation
dashes forward until he meets this
% which compels him to slow down
'■’ly—a most difficult accomplishment—i
tile pole and in through the narp''trance between two pyramids. Then
^o^ward again.

THE FINAL TEST of agility is getting
over the 41/ 2 -foot-high vaulting box,
which seems comparatively easy after
the wall scaling, ^nd running an additional
five yards to the finish line. The whole
series of agility tests is set up in a straight
line, and the man goes as rapidly as possi­
ble from one task to the next.
7
THE FINAL TEST is for endurance. The candidate runs 120 yards car­
rying a 50-pound dumbbell in each hand. In many ways it is the most
grueling of all the tests. The Leader’s reporter asked many of the men
what they thought of the exam. “Tough,” was the general opinion, “but
fair.” A 245-p<iund N. Y. U. football player called the exam “difficult, but
the kind a good man can train for and pass.” The men who come out on top
in the Sanitation exam will give New York the finest selection of Sanitation
workers in the entire country. Their duties will be to work on sanitation
trucks, to handle heavy equipment, to work in the city’s incinerators, to aid
in operating tractors, cranes, graders’ trucks and equipment used in dumps.
For the performance of these duties the Sanitation job pays $1,860 per year,
or ^ . 9 4 a day.

Along with city employees
from other departments, work­
ers in the Sanitation Depart­
ment assisted in rescue work
following the hurricane of Sep­
tember, 1938.
Its activities
were centered about helping
marooned families in Bath
Beach, Rockaway Point, and
Williston Park, L. I. After
working hours, the department
mobilized its forces and equip­
ment. The men transported
200 row boats from Central
Park Lake and aided in rescue
work.
They removed 3,000
trees which were obstructing
sidewalks and roadways, an<i
hauled 1,000,000 loads of debris,
the aftermath of the storm.
During the truck operator
strike the department assisted
in trucking medical supplies,
food, and other emergency
merchandise.
It kept 800
trucks ready, night and day, at
City Hall Plaza.
