H ere is tlio explanation; Before the raises can actually go on em ployee chocks, the Gen­ eral A ccoim tan t O ffice m ust pre­ pare com plete new pay tablrij, doubtedly, however, others will be offered, too. n.ost certainly will be sou ght by powerful em ployee groups. F irst—T hey will a sk an " h o n e st’^ timo-and-one-half f o r overtim e work, instead of the present time-and-one-quarter. Second — T hey will a sk more equitable pay adju stm ents for certain groups of postal workers. Seek to K nock Out Ceilings Third—T hey will seek to knock out the present ceilings which provide no overtim e pay w h a t­ ever for em ployees above $.'5,000, and overtim e pay only on the first $2,900 of their incom es for other em plovees. These are the principal ch a n g es already being advocated. Un­ sh o w in g the precise total of salary and overtim e pay for hundreds of different pay grades. Individual ag encies m ust ex­ am ine each individual nam e on their payrolls to m ake sure that W ar Bond deductions have been correctly calculated. And finally, the a g en cies m ust m ake up com plete new sets of the plates from which payrolls are prepared. All that probably will take con­ siderable time. And much of it will have to be duplicated before em ployees can g et check s for back overtim e pay. It is recalled here that several a g en cies took m onth s to put into e ffec t the recent M ead-Ram speck auto m atic promotion raises. And the Public B uildings A dm in is­ tration took even longer to put through pay raises for em ployees v/ho got raises imder the recent Custodial Service pay bill. Third Will B e Toiigh Of the three listed above, the first tw o are considered m uch m ore likely to win Congressional approval than the third. Although the $5,000 and $2,900 lim its actual­ ly m ean pay reductions for m any employees, Congress is far from sym pathetic. Individual Congress­ men will admit, willingly enough, th a t the principle of extra pay for extra work is just as sound for higher-bracket em ployees as for those in the lower salary grades.

Their pensions, in m any cases pitifully small, are fixxfd by law. Most of them have little chance to i m e n t their incom e.

T he Council, be­ fore a c tin g on this resolution in­ stead of the Schick Bill which called for a graduated scale of in­ creases up to 15 per cent, ex­ pressed the belief that it couldn’t get very far unless the Mayor san ctioned its move. And w h at hope w a s there that the Mayor would? Ju st this, the Mayor w ent so far, at this m eeting, as to refer a letter to Council rem ind in g it that it is w ith ­ out power to fix or increase sal­ aries; that, m oreover, any action it planned to take w'ould be “ purely ad visory .” The Mayor even su g ­ Page Three gested that the Council explore the possibility of in creasin g city revenues. Nam e-Calling Begin s Majority Leader Joseph T.

Then Mr. Sharkey and Mr. K in sley got behind a resolution ask in g the Comptroller to provide inform ation to the Council re­ garding personnel curtailm ent and the drop in city ex penditures for relief in order to aid in re­ vising the Schick bill on salary Increases.

If such a p e r so n ’s nam e is reached for app o intm en t w h ile he is absent, there is no legal barrier to app ointing him and im m ed iatley app ointing so m e ­ one else as a substiute during his absence. In th is case, ho would, of course, be considered as on ind efinite m ilitary leave of absence, in the sa m e situation as he would have been had he received the app ointm en t before he w as called for militai'y service.

S U B S T IT U T E A P P O I N T M E N T S W h e n it is im practicable to leave v a c a n t the position of an e m ­ ployee absent on m ilitary duty, and get the work done by doublingup m ethods, a problem m ay arise in connection w it h - t h e appoint­ m e n t of a substitute. The State Civil Service C om m ission has adopted rules and a plan of procedure to cover this c o nting ency , and has recom m ended tha t m unicipal and county c o m m issions take sim ilar steps. This provides th a t su b stitu te app o intm en ts be m ade w h en ev e r practicable by a p p oin tm en t from an appropriate eligible list, in the follow ing order of priority; preferred lists, prom otion lists, open co m petitive lists. As an alternative to the use of an open com petitiv e list, hov.'ever, the C om m ission su g g es ts the nom ination of persons servin g in the depa rtm ent in the direct prom otional lip“ for non-com petitive e x am in ation by the civil service com m ission, ib perm a nent em ployee who a ccepts a su bstitu te app ointm en t to fill a position occupiiid by som eone absen t on m ilitary leav'e is entitled to all the rights he would be entitled to were he still in his ordi­ nary position, in co nnection with prom otion, transfer, etc. At the sa m e time he is entitled to receive the sa m e increm en ts or other salary increases as are provided by law (if any) for perm anent em ­ ployees. H e acquires no tenure rights in the su bstitu te position, however. SP E C IA L JO B S The State Com m ission has adopted a rule intended to take care o f possible difficulty in filling certain specialized positions. T his provides that w here a position requires sp ecial physical, tech nical or e d u c a t io m l qualifications, if it appears im practicable because of W’ar conditions to m ake a p erm an en t app ointm en t, the C om m ission m ay authorize a tem porary a p p o in tm en t for the duration of the w a r and six m o nth s thereafter. If there is ho appropriate eligible list from which su ch an a p p o in tm en t m a y be made, the departm ent m ay nom inate a person for n on -com p etitive e xam in ation by the Commission. It should be noted that the provisions m entioned here apply only to persons in the Army, N a v y, Marine Corps or Coast Guard, and not to m em bers of sem i-m ilitary organizations su ch as the Coast Guard, and not to m em bers of sem i-m ilitary organizations sucVi as the Coast Guard Auxiliary, or persons a ccepting positions in the F ed eral G o vernm ent or in industrial war work. They apply also to m em bers of w o m e n ’s m ilitary organizations, such as the WAACS and W AV ES. WHO GETS LEA V E? It is entirely w ithin the discretion of departm ent heads w h eth er or not to grant leave of absen ce to em ploy ees to enter su ch se m i­ m ilitary organizations or to take positions with the Federal Govern­ m ent or with private industry. E m p lo y e es are not entitled to such leave as a m atter of right, as is the case of leaves for those ordered on voluntary m ilitary service.

V Circle 7-2il5 Councilmen, Employees Call fo r Salary Adjustm ents (Continued from Pane Three) S c h ic k ’s View Councilman Schick, sponsor of the pay raise resolution and bill, told The L E A D E R that, unless so m ething of the sort now results in much needed pay raises for City em ployees, a serious m a n ­ power crisis faces N e w York. “Too m any woi’kers have been lost from all departm ents to w a r ­ rant us losing any m ore,” he said, adding “ and then there’s the ab­ solute need for increases to m eet the soaring cost of living.” Councilman A nthony J. DiGiova n n a pointed out that the Mayor no doubt is in favor of raises, but th a t he m ost likely will not per­ m it the Councilm anic D em ocra ts “ to steal the thunder by being instrum ental in g e ttin g those long so u ght increases.” It is entirely probable, said Mr. DiGiovanna, that the Mayor intends having a sim ilar scale of raises in the forthcom in g budget “ so that he can take the credit. After all, Chicago raised the pay of their em ployees, and so did the Federal G overnm ent.” R a ise s W ithout Dolay Councilman John P.

This enabled the Com m is­ sion to solve a problem of a ss ig n ­ m ent of an em ployee who would not be in danger of being called into m ilitary service, to work in the F iscal Bureau. “ The Budget Director w as ag ree­ able t o t h isc h a n g e o of title because it permitted the transfer of a tele­ phone operator from the D epart­ m ent of Welfare, who was surplus in that departm ent, and because it did not involve any increase in salary for the person whose title w as changed. “ As a m atter of fact, the person whose title w as changed actually loses about $300 in increm en ts be­ cause her new anniversary date will be January instead of July of each year. I f her title were not changed, she would have recjiv e d an increm ent in July, 1943. As things now stand, she will not Ket this increm ent until Januarv, 1944. “ B y this change of title, none of the eligibles higher on the list lost a promotion opportunity.

You Get 11 R eceipt P en sio n s D o n 't Count F ig h t in g M en Included A p proxim ately 920 em ployees of the city w h o are in the arm ed forces, and w h o receive the dif­ ference in their m ilitary pay from the city are su bject to the tax, the T reasury D e p a r tm e n t has ruled, on th a t portion o f their incom e w h ic h is paid by the City. Com ptroller McGoldrick was confronted w ith a bookkeeping problem of considerable m a g n i­ tude in plan n in g the m ethod w h ereby he would facilitate the collection of the Victory tax. Of the 200,000 city em ployees in­ volved (inclu ding the Board of E du ca tio n and the Board of Transp ortation) 53,000 are on m o nth ly payrolls. On se m i­ m onth ly payrolls there are 35,000 em ployees. W e e k ly payrolls cover 48,000, w h ile 25,000 are on a parttim e basis. T h o u san d s of adjust­ m e n ts norm ally have to be m ade m onth ly due to absence, sickness, resignations, deaths, etc. The Comptroller stated that by m e a n s of this installation he will be enabled to furnish to the go v ­ ernm ent and to each employee a nnually a receipt se ttin g forth their gross ea rn in gs together with their total V ictory tax deduction, as required by the Act. Custodian E n g in eers, however, m ust m ake such w ithh old ings. The T reasury D e p a r tm en t ha.'! also ruled, Mr. McGoidriclt said, that the City need m a k e no dcduc ♦ ion from pension s paid by the City. The inference is that for­ m er em ployees receiving pensions m ust pay the V ictory tax th e m ­ selv es when filling their income tax returns in 1944. Not Victory tax will be deducted for m a intenance, co n sistin g of food and lodging, provided such m aintenance is furnished for the convenien ce o f the City" and the value thereof is not included in gross incom e for F ed eral income tax purposes. H o w It w o r k s To overcom e difficu lties of k e e p in g records o f accou nts for a pp roxim ately 200,000 City em ­ ployees, and w ith the desire of e stab lish in g the m o st econom ical and e ffic ien t m ethod of operation.

Accord­ ing to a provision of the Labor L a w of the S ta te of N ow York, em ployees in the labor class arc entitled to the prevailing rate of w ages. Seven thousand c o ntests con cern in g a considerable num ­ ber of em plo y ees are the su bject of com plaints no w pending before the Comptroller, so m e of which go back for a num ber of years. W hen and if a ny of these co n ­ te sts are decided in favor of the em ployee, the p a y m en t of back w a g e s a fter Ja n u ary 1, 1943, Is subject to the w ithh old ing of the Victory tax regardless of the year in which w a g e s were actually earned.

High School: College Students COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE WORRIED. They don’t know w hat’s coming. They w on’t know exact]y until the Manpower Commission hands down its say on the situation. Expect that docu­ ment around first of the year. However, here’s how things stand now. EVERY COLLEGE STUIJENT is swept either into the Army plan or the Navy plan. HIGH SCHOOLS WILL FIND THEMSELVES SHORTLY GEARED TO THE WAR PROGRAM. Already, the Army has told what it expects of high schools: (1) to contrib­ ute to the flow of manpower into the armed forces; (2) to provide training in fields where the Army is experiencing shortages; (3) to help free the resources of the Army for special technical military training. Math, physics, pre-aviation will be the big high school subjects. Here, in capsule form, is the A rm y’s plan for college students: Item: Only enlisted men acceptable, ages 18 to 22, upon completion of basic training. Item: Students, in uniform, receive Army pay, study where assigned, ta,ke technical courses. Item: Senior students enrolled in ROTC will be called to .active duty upon completion of the next semester, then sent to Army schools to study for commissions. JUNIOR STUDENTS IN THE ENLISTED RESERVE CORPS who are taking engineering courses will be permitted to finish the next semester, must then go on active duty. Some of them will be assigned back to school to finish their studies, Other students in the Enlisted Reserve must go into the-Army when the present semester is completed, may be eligible for special training in colleges, Item: What is in store for the student-soldier? Either: 1, Officer Candidate School; 2, Recommen­ dation for technical non-commissioned officer; 3. Return to the troops; 4. In exceptional cases, detailed for very advanced technical training; 5. In certain cases, h e’ll do work outside the Army, considered highly important to the w^ar effort. The N avy’s program is altogether different. Item: The Navy will take on high school gradu­ ates for college training, ages 17 to 19; or men al­ ready in the service, ages 17 to 22. item; Trainees will be able to choose theii col{Vontinued on Piiije SixUt>n) Page E ifrh t______________________________ CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Merit M e n G w iX -H - Tuesday, December 29, Scalise, th e m ilk racket th t a u r a n t racket, the truokinrr* fit, th e Ju d g e Manton P a r k Avenue Canteen.

QUESTION, PLEASE ■ ifKMMiMiiHil-l Why Commission Uses Selective Certiiication V. K .: T he 150,000 em ployees of N e w York City are divided into app ro xim ately 1,000 titles. In m a n y c a se s only one or two per­ so n s m a y hold a particular title. In the past the Com m ission has, a lw a y s held exam inations w hen v a c a n c ie s occurred in these titles. T h e m ultiplicity of these exam ­ inations and the thousands of can d id ates who filed • for them m ad e it necessery for the Com­ m issio n to expend large sum s of m o n e y and hold m any exam in a­ tions. It also resulted in a situa­ tion w h ere provisionals held these titles for long periods of time until the eligible lists could bo prom ulgated. In order to cut down the num ­ ber of e xam in ation s and in order to reduce the number of pro­ v isio n a ls and the long periods of tim e th a t som e provisionals se rved, the Com m ission two years ag o adopted a policy of selective certification . Under this pro­ cedure the Com m ission may de­ clare th a t a list designed to fill v a c a n c ie s in another title is ap­ propriated to fill a given vacancy. Sin ce this v a ca n cy requires some experience, training, education or unique qualification not po ssessed by all eligibles on that list, the C om m ission will hold a qu a lify in g ex a m in a tio n to find i the persons possessed of that particular qualification and then c ertify that p e is o n or persons to the v a c a n c y in the order of their sta n d in g on the original list.

Should you be selected, you’ll be sent to the University of Michigan Law School; upon, grp.duation, you’ll be assigned to the Judge Advo­ cate General’s Department. You must be a practic­ ing attorney with considerable practical experience. At least 4 years of experience is necessary to attain the rank of Captain, but commissions in lesser ranks are sometimes granted to competent men with less experience.
