[Tuesday, October 7,1941
An examination fo r Patrolm an is expected ^to be held early in 1942.
Few men regardless of physical condition or education can hope to pass either the physical
or mental te st with a high percentage without specialized training. During the last twenty-five
years close to 90% appointed to and promoted in the Police D epartm ent have been prepared by us.
Any young m an who is interested in ta k ing the coming Patrolman test is invited to call
and be examined by our physician without cost, a tte n d a mental class and observe a physical class
in session. The special features of our physical train in g a r e the 12 laps to a mile track on the
roof of our gymnasium, the agility te st and th e coordination machines.
Below is a letter from one of our students who received 99.4%, the highest physical rating in
the last examination for Fireman and who attended this Institute fo r Sanitation Man and was
No. 10 on the eligible list.
New York, New York,
Mr. M. J. Delehanty, Director,
September 3, 1941.
The Delehanty Institute,
115 E a st 15th Street, New York, New York.
My dear Mr. Delehanty:
There is a distinctive advantage in attending your institution. And, even though I am only
one of the many thousands who come to you f o r instruction, I am none the less appreciative for
the advantage afforded by membership in your school.*
I sincerely feel th a t my achievement in tw o recent civil service examinations is directly
attributable to your eminent institution. Both mental and physical. In this day and time
practical achievement is, ostensibly, the very essence of life itself. Feeling th a t I am an average
American, with a possession of the more or less common desire fo r happiness and security, I
believe th a t my case is a striking proof of the f a c t of the advantage I have mentioned.
To use somewhat hard-head business te rm s, I suppose I can express myself in the follow­
ing fashion: Mine is a concrete case in which, by virtue of attendance a t your institution, a
good job has been attained; a better job is coming up; earning power has been increased;
domestic tranquillity enhanced, and the future as well secured as I could possibly wish for at
present.
I thank you and the conscientious instructors, who have worked patiently with me. I am
genuinely glad" to say th a t I am a satisfied Delehanty Student.
Respectfully yours,
LU TH ER M. B. HOOEY.

Self-Interest
E L F - I N T E R E S T is sometimes looked upon as not
a pretty phrase.
S
But civil servants aren’t interested in phrases.
In one matter they are acting with a determination and
unanimity such as they have never before attained: the
m atter of salaries in line with the times.
Civil servants throughout the country are showing
that they will not be made the scapegoats of a changing
economic picture. When they arc accused of acting in
“ self-interest,” they blandly admit it: it is their only
means of protection. If government employees don’t act
to protect themselves against rising prices and rising
taxes, nobody is going to act for them.
The arguments on the side of the fight for better sal­
aries are so simple and so direct as to be incontro­
vertible. They are:
1. Prices and taxes are going up. So should civil ser­
vice salaries.
2. Wages in private industry are going up. So should
civil salaries.
3. The government wants the best personnel it can
get. So, because we live under a system where supplyand-demand are still potent facts, and because private
industry is also after the best personnel it can get, civil
service salaries must go up.
And while on every other issue, you can get every
kind of opinion among government workers, in the m at­
te r of salaries they are as one. T hrough their organiza­
tions, federal employees are working on salary increases
through in-grade promotion raises, through direct
bonuses in line with the increased cost of living, and
through graduated wage scales. T hrough their organiza­
tions, New York State and city employees are striving
for the same thing. In New York City, a major campaign
is under way to obtain the prevailing rate of pay— that
is the rate that prevails in private industry— for skilled
and semi-skilled employees.
Civil servants know what they want, and they are out
to get it. This is what is meant by the phrase “self-interest.” The eventual gainer of this campaign is not only
the civil servant, but the entire community and nation
Last week, The L E A D E R asked two friends of civil
service in the nation’s capital— Senator Jam es M. Mead
a n d Congressman Robert Ramspeck— to introduce bills
into Congress providing for pay raises in consonance
with rising living costs. W e ’ll report on these efforts
Boon.
Hoiv Long Is a C op’s
Working Day?
E ’RE harping on it again— the 11-squad chart
for cops.
We were the first publication to go to bat on
this problem editorially— and we intend to stick until it’s
solved the right way.
The 11-squad chart is a system which would give the
cop an 8-hour day and one day a week off. Right now
he doesn’t have that privilege. Today, New York City
cops have the ‘‘32-hour swing,” which means they must
actually work every day in the week.
The H-squad system so re-arranges and staggers the
■working hours of the men th a t while each cop puts in his
8-hour shift, he is assured of a full day off each week.
T he system is something the cops want, and there isn’t
any reason why they shouldn’t have it— except that more
cops would be needed. The obvious answer is that they
• re needed, and will be needed, and will be needed
even more urgently as the clouds of the- future descend
upon us.
So we’re glad to hear, at this writing, and from the
most reliable sources, that a bill is being introduced at
the current session of the City Council which would au­
thorize the creation of a decent working day for cops.
Chances for passage of the bill look good. The L E A D E R
will certainly do all it can to see that if doe».

Election Sidelights
Friends of Councilman B o b
Straus are as peeved at Stanley
Isaacs as Isaacs is at LaGuardia.
Here’s why: Straus refrained from
seeking Fusion’s designation for
Manhattan Borough President be­
cause he didn’t want to hamper the
renomination chances of Isaacs.
Isaacs was refused the renomination
after all, and is now one of Straus’
chief oppbnents for Councilman,
and will probably win with votes
that otherwise would reelect Straus
. , . Straus, incidentally, is a mem­
ber of the Democratic County Com­
mittee and is counting on a heavy
independent Democratic vote and a
heavy registration . . .
