How New A ppointing
IVIetiiod W orl(s in P ractice
The Municipal Civil Service Commission’s new policy of selective certification rolled
into action last week, and eligibles began to get a taste of what it would be like. Actually
no certifications were made, but the Commission began a study of two situations which will
require the use of the new method of selecting specially qualified persons.

A new appeals board for transit employees brought into Civil Service by the provisions
of the Wicks law will be set up within a few days by the Municipal Civil Service Commission,
The Leader learned this week. The appeals board will hear complaints of employees whose
titles have been reclassified under the transit unification program. At present, the Civil
Service Commission is engaged in the huge task of surveying and reclassifying the titles,
duties, salaries, etc. of 27,000 transit workers. The titles are being reclassified in order to
bring them in line with those existing in the city service. In cases where no title exists, new
ones will have to be created. ®-------— --------------------------------------------------------------------

Mayor LaGuardia last week called the attention of mem­
bers of the New York City Employees’ Retirement System
to the fact that they have only until September 30th to take
advantage of the recent amendment to the Administrative
Code permitting applications to be filed for the right to retire
at the minimum age of fifty-five.
p r o v i s i o n of t h e
ple, farmers and laborers of the
community.
Opposed to them
are the local landed gentry who
recoil from rubbing shoulders
with the broom handlers. Sup­
porting the gentry are many
who fear the property will be­
come tax exempt under the laivs
pertaining to Welfare Org an­
izations.
Also it is said local
politicos are fomenting opposi­
tion for fear the newcomers
may upset the precarious R e ­
publican m ajo rity obtainable in
tJiis Westchester .town.
The
Sanitation Dept, declares this
last fear is groundless as Sanit a ’s joyous band will be vaca­
tioners only, not residents.
A meeting ivas held at the
Yorktown Heights H ig h School
at which Commissioner W illia m
F. Carey presented the case for
the Sanitation men last week.
His audience, composed largely
of property owners, were oppos­
ed five to one to the transac­
tion. Ap parently they share t h <2
attitude of a Huntington resi­
dent who, according to H a r r y
Langdon said: " I ’m a tenth
generation blueblood and I just
couldn’t stand it.'’

Analysis of Question 2
)u Fire Lieutenant Test
By E U G E N E B. S C H W A R T Z
Q 2. The minimum pressure at which
vater should be delivered to the second
(ngme should be 58 or 60 pounds. Reason:
At 48.6 pounds the first engine would push
the water to the inlet o f the second en­
gine which, in effect, would be taking suc­
tion from a 3" line. At 48.6 pounds the
water won'ld be flowing feebly and would
not help second engine to maintain a
tteady flow, parthfnlarly if there was a
gudden drop In pressure on the first en­
gine. In the latter case there would be
pulsation in the flow and a possible
collapse of the hose.
However, the pressures are dispropor­
tionate as between the two engiiTBS. Each
engine should bear its proportionate share
of the total pressure. To do this, the
layout would have to be changed so that
rhe second engine would carry about
5ths of the pressure carried by the first
engine, as follows:
1st Engine 109 pounds. 2nd Engine 87
pounds,

'.ccoiding to the above, the load of the
St u. is increased from 58.6 pounds to
.09 ponuds, or by 60.4 pounds. As the
L. in 100’ of 2*/a” hose, at 227.7 G.P.M.
12.465 pounds, about 400’ of 2 ‘/3" h o s e

No definite requtrementa have
been set for a Conductor exam
which is still non-existent. T he
Civil Service Commission deter*
mines height requirements in
terms of the needs of the job.
A conductor must look beyond
the platform between oars, must
operate long-handed mechan­
isms. I f Sanitation men get the
Conductor job, m any will be on­

LISTING OF U. S. DEFENSE JOBS
The necessities of America’s program of national defense have added 8,350 governm ent jobs in the nation’s Capital. Outside of
W ashington, the number of jobs added as a result of the defense situation is enormous. Since early summer, the Army and Navy
have added 80,000, principally in Arsenals an d navy yards.
*
•
Many more, both in the field and in W ashington, will be added to the F ederal pay roll as the preparedness program gathers
speed and the paper work of the conscript arm y begins to pour in for auditing and filing. The Leader runs this article as a ser.
vice to its readers who may wish to gauge their opportunities under the defense program .
