M2J J~HDL To Be a Supervisor see page 7 Price Five Cento PART-TIME U.S. CLERICAL JOBS; ALSO NYC OPENINGS, NO EXAMS see pages Job Insurance for U. S. Employees Government apparently has abandoned the idea of severance pay for its employees who lose their jobs after the war. Instead, it is planning on unemployment insurance lor them. That, at least, appeared to be the outlook here this week. Civil Service Commission, in its annual report, had recommended either severance pay or unemployment insurance. Indications are that it has decided to settle for unemployment insurance—and so recommend t o Congress. T h e Commission h a s a labormanagement committee composed of leading Government officials and national officers of Federal employee unions. This committee, at a meeting last week, unanimously voted for unemployment insurance in preference to severance pay. And Commission officials indicated they would adopt the suggestion—providing, of course, t h a t Congress approves. Unemployment insurance varies from state t o state. Therefore, it is impossible to forecast just what t h e Commission's new plan might mean t o any individual employee. Hpwever, the District of Columbia's insurance formula—generally considered fairly liberal—offers a fairly good index. It gives the un- employed worker from $7 to $20 per week up to 30 weeks. [Bills to provide unemployment insurance for New York State and local employees were killed in committee during the recent -legislative session i n Albany. However, no one publicly opposes unemployment insurance, and it appears probable that the principle will get a sympathetic hearing at the next session. T h e idea of unemployment insurance for public employees seems to be rapidly taking hold.—Editor.] Is LaGuardia Trying to Crack Fireman Union? By FRANCIS KELLY It's a case of Fire Commissioner Walsh vs. The President of the United States say the New York City firemen who are fighting the overtime hours imposed by the Commissioner. "There is a manpower shortage," says the Commissioner. "Sure," reply the men. "But it Is a shortage of your making." The Fire Commissioner isn't asking deferment for any of the uniformed men, stating that they are more needed in the armed forces t h a n at home. But the firemen recall the case of some firemen who appealed their 1-A classification. T h e m a t ter finally came before t h e Presidential Appeal Board, which reprepresents the president in Selective Service appeals. This Board ruled that firemen with two years of experience rated deferment. But Commissioner Walsh refuses to ask to stay their induction. "It's purely a way to save money," insist some of the firemen. v"It's the Mayor's way of getting back at us," say others. If the department allows its men to be drafted, it will soon be down to 5,500 (from about 8,400 when war broke out). To pay these 5,500 men the $420 bonus—for which they will have to work 84 or more hours a w e e k will cost the City about $2,500,000. But the 3,000 m e n who are in service from the Fire Department represents a saving in salaries to the City of $9,000,000 a year. "So, by the simple expedient of cutting down the staff, the City can overwork the remaining firemen and still save plenty on the deal." That's the complaint of the firemen. Meanwhile, it appeared evident as The LEADER was going to press, that the two-platoon system would soon be installed in the department. Mayor Breaking UFA? The firemen feel also, that the Mayor is using the $420 bonus as a club to break up their association, an AFL affiliate. The Uniformed Firemens Association h a s been behind the litigation to prevent the imposition of longer working hours. In a sudden move last week, the Mayor announced that he would pay the bonus to any firemen who signed a waiver, and the last paragraph of that waiver amounts to a withdrawal from the litigation, and for all practical purposes, from the fight which the UFA is conducting. T h a t paragraph reads: "5. Recognizing that m y country is at war, I admit that an emergency exists within the meaning of Section 487a-11.0 of the Administrative Code, which, during the continuance of the present war authorizes, empowers and permits the continuance on duty or members of the uniformed personnel of the Fire Department for such hours as m a y be necessary beyond those provided under the three platoon system, and I hereby waive any right to contest, by litigation or otherwise, the validity of Special Order 258 issued by the Fire Commissioner on December 30. 1943, and hereby waive each and every claim that I may have against the City of New York and the Fire Commissioner based upon the issuance of the said Special Order." Even in his message to the Board of Estimate on the Budget, Mayor LaGuardia attempts to broaden the breach in the firemens organization. Speaking of the firemens' protest against longer working tours, the message reads . . . " . . . The overwhelming majority of the old- Who Gets N. Y. State ALBANY—Do you get an increment? Are you entitled to an increase in pay as of April 1, because of the time you have served on the job? Charles L. Campbell, Administrative Director of the State Civil Service Department, h a s issued a detailed memorandum to appointing officers. It explains precisely who gets an increment. Here are the salient points of the memorandum: an increment. Permanent employees appointed or promoted without a n increase in salary to a higher overlapping grade on or after October 1, 1943, are entitled to an increment on April 1, 1944. TEMPORARY substitute employees and leave-of-absence-forwar-work replacements, appointed prior to October 1, 1943, and who have the requisite number of years of service-in-the-position, may be paid an increment. (These are appointees under Rule VIII-A, Rule VIII-12, and Rule X V I - l b . Increments for Employees in Feld-Hamilton Positions PERMANENT EMPLOYEES apHow to Compute It pointed, promoted, or reinstated prior to October 1, 1943, who have In computing the number of more than six months of satisfac- years of service-in-the-position: tory service, and who have the (a Service for more t h a n six requisite number of years of serv- months during a fiscal year shall ice-in-the-position, are entitled to constitute an "increment year," er men of the department realize the situation, and I can say they are not in accord with the conduct and attitude of the men responsible for the present action. The officers of the department have officially informed the Commissioner that they do not subscribe to the conduct and action taken by the Uniformed Firemen's association. (Ed. Note: The Lieutenant's Association last week came out for the firemen and their fight against overtime work). The reason that the cost of living bonus cannot be provided is that pending litigation is based on a demand for overtime work and it challenges the right ot the Commissioner to order extra tours of duty." Then he goes on to speak of the pathetic situation, "which brings hardship to the families of thousands of loyal, devoted firemen who have served the City for many years." Finally, h e "hopes" that a way m^y be found to give the bonus as of April 1, to those who "are cheerfully complying and who want no part of the litigation." Some officials of The UFA feel that the Mayor is deliberately acting to divide the younger and the older men. and thus break down the UFA, which has refused to comply with his wishes. Increments? except that service for more than three months in the fiscal year ending March 31, 1943, shall constitute an "increment year." Thus, a person who h a s been out on leave of absence but has served more than six months in a fiscal year (or three months during the fiscal year 1942-1943) is entitled to be credited with an "incre ment year," regardless of the date of restoration to his position. However, a person who has been reinstated to his position after a resignation must be reinstated prior to October 1 in order to be credited with an "increment year." (b) Service for any period during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1938, regardless of its duration, constitutes one "increment year." (o) Service during the fiscal year July 1, 1939-June 30, 1940 shall not be considered, provided, however, that persons who received their first original permanent appointments in the State service during the period between January 1, 1939 and June 30, 1939 (Continued on page 9) NEW YORK STATE EMPLOYEE NEWS BEGINS ON PAGE 7 2, 10, 16 Employee Ideas To Get Tryout In NYC Agency Two NYC employees, a man and a woman, are the first to receive public mention of their suggestions which were made in the course of the work simplification project in the Department of Purchase. Commissioner Albert Pleydell, in a letter to William H. G. Doyle, a laborer in the Staten Island warehouse, thanked him for his suggestion to substitute a tank for storage of oil used by the municipal ferries in .place of drums. Department engineers are working out details of the new plan, which would save 48 m a n days a year, and eliminate danger of injury to employees, in addition to saving a considerable amount of money. "As soon as the necessary studies and arrangements have been made," wrote Mr. Pleydell, "I shall notify you of the credit which your proposal has earned." Saves Typing T h e distaff side was represented by Miss Madeline Tatarelli, a clerk in the warehouse. Her suggestio-i was to eliminate the stamping and typing of priority cards and tickets which were n o longer needed. T h a t idea, said the Commissioner, would help the department to carry on its work despite the manpower shortage, and would bring a reward to Miss Tatarelli. State Raises Rates For Employees Who Travel ALBANY—A new schedule permitting increases in the allowances to State employees for traveling expenses, effective i m mediately, h a s been announced by State Comptroller Frank c. Moore, with the approval of Budget Director John E. Burton. The action constituted an important victory for the Association of State Civil Service Employees. The maximum daily rates for meals and lodging have been increased from $7 to $8 per day transient. I n the following cities: Albany, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Falls, Schenectady, New York City and Washington, D. C., they reremain at the present rate of $8 per day. The maximum permanent weekly rate for the above cities is fixed at $45.50. For all places within the State not enumerated above, the maximum rates allowed are $7 per day, transient, and $42 per week, permanent. The rate allowed for travel by personally owned cars on State business has been i n creased from 4 Vis cents to 5 cents. The increased rates will be in effect for the duration of the war and a period of six months thereafter, when the maximum allowances will revert to former rates. Many State employees, whose official duties require them to travel, have found it impossible, in recent months, to live within the old rates. T h e new schedule will adjust expense allowances to the increased living costs,-said the Comptroller. HAT THE BUDGET MEANS TO NYC EMPLOYEES see page 3 Page Fourteen Tuesday, April 4, 1944 CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Quick Promotions Needed, Soy U.S. Personnel Men WASHINGTON—A new drive to win faster promotions for Federal employees is under way here. This one is entirely distinct and separate from the recent proposal of Civil Service Commission that automatic promotions <and also meritorious promotions) be speeded up. The new move springs frdm Government personnel directors. Some of these officials are complaining that Civil Service is too slow in approving the promotions of employees who are moved up to fill vacancies. The same goes, they say, for employees who are transferred from other agencies to fill vacancies. In such cases, the employee usually is assigned immediately to his new duties. Sometimes, however, it takes weeks before Civil Service gives its O.K. This means a financial loss to the worker. He can't get the added pay that goes with his new job until Civil Service approves.

Brig. Gen. H. N. Gilbert, USA, ODB Director, presented each with a coveted Army Service Forces Civilian Award for Meritorious Service. The ribbon emblems, 1% by % inches, carry t h e ASF insignia in red white and blue on background with three horizontal white pin stripes edged with two vertical white stripes. They are worn on the front of the dress below the left shoulder, or on the the loft iapel of the coat. In addition, each ODB employee received a certificate of official commendation and praise for meritorious performance of duty, signed by Lt. Gen. Brehon B. Somervell, Commanding Genei al of the ASF. The certificates read, in part, "In recognition of the completion of ten or more years of faithful and satisfactory service rendered to the War Department and to the Nation. . . ." In accordance with War Department procedure, recommendation for the exceptional War Department honor was first submitted to the Army Service Forces Committee on Civilian Awards in Washington, D. C.

I n general, .however, it is somewhat more liberal—and lays more emphasis on special interpretation for special cases. The Council said: ' Federal employees should be encouraged to take a vacation for rest, recrea^ tion, and recuperation, just as the Government is urging war workers to do." —It is urged that this vacation be limited to 12 days—excluding travel time. —It said that vacations should begin and end in mid-week i n order not to crowd public transportation facilities. —It recommended that Federal workers be given extra time off throughout the year—time off in addition to vacations—to take care of shopping and other urgent personal business. House Action on McKellar Rider is Still in Doubt By CHARLES SULLIVAN WASHINGTON—Final vote on the McKellar rider now appears several weeks off. The McKellar rider is an amendment to the Independent Offices bill. It is sponsored by Sen. Kenneth McKellar (D., Tenn.), acting chairman of the Senate Approbations Committee. It would require Senatorial confirmation of all Federal employees making $4500 and up. The Senate already has approved the McKellar rider. House action, however, will be delayed until after the current Easter recess. t, Might Involve War Offices Sen. McKellar's proposal is so broad that it might even extend to Army and Navy officers. I n fact, to cite just one complication, it might even delay the granting of higher rank to a military man promoted for gallantry in the field. T h e House is expected to put up a stiff battle against the rider. Nevertheless, the final result is hard to estimate. A similar measure last year almost got through. Biggest hope for the defeat of the measure lies in the natural reluctance of the House to grant so much patronage to their Senatorial colleagues. This, however, is an election year. And the possibility that the Senate will work out some sort of a 'deal" to make the measure more palatable to the House is anything but remote.

GLASSES You're Not Done With the Tax Man WASHINGTON—Most Federal employees thought they settled their income tax bill with Uncle Sam on March 15. Those i n the upper pay brackets, however, are due for a surprise. They not only will have to file a declaration of estimated income for 1944. In all probability, they also will have to make a down payment at the same time. That will be the case for married persons making $3500 or more. It also will be the case for single persons earning $2700 or more. And it applies to non-Government employees as well as those on Uncle Sam's payroll. Reason is that the withholding deduction on the upper pay brackets its not enough to cover the full amount of the tax. Hence, better-paid employees will have to pay one-fourth of the difference April 15. Other payments will be due June 15, Sept. 45, and Dec. 15.

That happened already. April 7 to 17—The Board of Estimate holds public hearings on the Budget, which it may increase or decrease. Following is the schedule of hearings which will be held at City Hall, starting at 10 a.m., on the dates given: Monday, April 10— Taxpayers, and Civic Organizations; all City Departments except Board of Education and Higher Education. Tuesday, April 11—Education and Higher Education. WednesdayL April 12—City employees. April 27—Board of Estimate must adopt Budget, which then goes to City Council. May 21—City Council must approve or change Budget items by decreasing them. The Council cannot increase the Budget. If the Council does not act, the Budget becomes effective as the Board of Estimate passed it. May 27—The Budget goes from the Council to the Mayor. June 1—Last day for the Mayor to veto the Council Budget. June 10—Last day on which the Council may override the Mayoral Veto by a 3'4 vote. June 15—By this day the Budget must be certified by the Mayor, the City Clerk, and the Compt rolelr. Fire Department The Budget carries $39,638,513.50 for the Fire Department. Military leaves have been deducted. There could be no provision for the cost of living bonus for the men of this Department because of pending litigation. No one could rightfully question that a wartime emergency exists and that the Fire Commissioner, responsible for the protection of life and property against fire in this City, has the legal authority to fix the hours and assignments of duty. The overwhelming majority of the older men of the Department recognize the situation and I can say they are not in accord with the conduct and attitude of the men responsible for the present action. The officers of the Department have officially informed the Commissioner that they do not subscribe to the conduct and action taken by the Uniformed Firemen's Association. [This doesn't jibe with the statement of the Fire Lieutenants issued last week.—Ed.] Should the position be changed between now and the last Board of Estimate Budget date I will make specific recommendations to meet the changed situation.

Despite this added burden and the complex personnel problems of wartime, the Department was able to maintain the usual high standards of service and efficiency. * Public Works Mandatory increments provided for total $17,248 and increased prevailing rates of wages for Stationary Engineers (Electric) and Oilers require an additional $17,577.98. For needed repairs to cables on the Williamsburg Bridge, work which cannot be done favorably under contract, $20,400 has been provided for the employment of Bridgemen and Riveters, the funds being obtained from the Repair Code in other than Personal Service. I have, therefore, increased the number of per diem Bridgemen and Riveters of this Department, thus giving greater latitude to the Department for increased work during the period of the year when outside work of this character may be performed under most favorable weather conditions. Prior to January 1, 1944, the average salary of Female Cleaners in this department was about $16 a week, after deductions were made for pensions and taxes, for employment on a 30 hours per week basis. The annual salary averaged $910, which rate was below that paid to similar employees in downtown office buildings. Salary increases were therefore granted these Cleaners, of $180 per annum each, but not without increasing the working basis to 36 hours per week, in order to partially offset the building maintenance help eliminated through vacant positions dropped, to aid in meeting the cost of living bonus. The new salary rate approximates an average of $21 a week, comparing favorably with private employment rates. This policy has been continued in effect in the 1944-45 Budget at an annual cost for 407 employees of $49,180. Savings effected in the budget will reduce this cost by $6,745.83. Aside from these salary Increases, the cost of living "bonus" in this department totaled approximately $350,000. To offset this, vacant positions have been eliminated throughout every bureau in the department, totaling $266,000. Other positions have been reduced to lower rates, increased charge of certain positions is to be made to other than tax levy funds as the Incumbents far • Year Vaeation and Sick Leave The Executive Budget contains these words: No person whose compensation is paid in whole or in part from the city treasury shall be allowed more than two calendar weeks' vacation with pay during the fiscal year 1944-1945, except that if such two weeks period includes a holiday, an extra day may be allowed in consideration thereof. Employees whose vacations are allowed prior to July 1, 1944, should, as a matter of equity, also be limited to two weeks. Sick leave with pay for all such persons shall be limited to 12 working days, provided that accumulated sick leave from past years at the same rate per annum may be allowed in meritorious cases and at the discretion of the head of the agency up to a totaV of six months. Where the work of employees is seasonal in character the vacation shall be allowed during the slack season. have recently advised me that they would conserve funds in every possible way and submitted plans showing that they could, by frugal administration, absorb almost the entire cost. I have accordingly allowed the temporary salary adjustment to these libraries effective from April 1, 1944, Parks motive equipment. I have therefore, provided in this Budget for 20 additional positions of mechanics, of various titles in the automotive trades, at a cost of $50,350, to keep existing equipment rolling. This ancient equipment increases the cost of operations including fuel and at the same time decreases efficiency.

Introduced by Councilman Anthony DiGiovanna, and sponsored by the American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees, the bill amends the Administrative Code. At present, A City employee can only collect back pay if he has signed each payroll sheet with a notation "under protest." Even if h e h a s notified his department that he feels entitled to more pay. he isn't able to collect unless the payrolls bear a protest. In cases where the employee neglects to Sign some of the payroll sheets, he loses money for each omission. Injustices Occurred The situation h a s often arisen where a City employee was e n - Tuesday, April 4, 1944 Municipal Court Employees Left Out in the Cold Service Rating Time Here; NYC Workers Extra Good Those NYC employees who have jobs with the Municipal Courts are another group who find themselves orphans oi the cost-of-living bonus. In his explanation of this situation, Mayor LaGuardia says: "I wish we did have some control over their budgets. We could save some money there, but I am helpless and have to appropriate for them. I n some of the Courts, if they cooperated with us, we would be able to provide the cost-of-living bonus. I n other Courts, we just cannot do this, because mandatory demands are such that we cannot meet it." The service-rating period for NYC employees ended on March 31. The City departments have received the forms from the Civil Service Commission and each super* visor has until April 15 to report on the work of his staff for the past year. (Last week's LEADER illustrated the new forms.) titled to back pay, or increments, but couldn't collect even after the Courts recognized his claims, because he didn't sign. Thus, one employee who had made a written protest would collect, while another in the same situation would be left out. Next step in the progress of the bill are passage by the Board of Estimate and approval by Mayor LaGuardia. Having the protest signing regulation on the books h a s saved the City a lot of money in the past; although admittedly unfair to employees.

Few examinations are being given, merely because people aren't interested In taking them, as higher salaries outside Civil Service provide a greater attraction. There is an extreme dearth of highly-trained, technical applicants. Upper bracket employees of the NYC Housing Authority came in for some nice raises ranging from $500 to $1,500 recently.

Eight names from the same list were sent in to the Department of Purchase in answer to their request for a Grade 1 Clerk. Subway Man's Injury Nets Less Than Expected The wheels of the subway trains move fast, but sometimes the wheels in the NYC Board of Transportation move slowly. Back in August, 1939, Morris Norwind, a conductor on the IRT took an enforced vacation for 17 days after he had been injured. During that timg he received workmans' compensation. Last week the Board of Transportation got around to awarding him 50 percent of the difference between his salary for that time, and what he had received as compensation. The usual award in such case is the full difference, but The State Compensation Board, this time, awarded only a 50 percent differential. • Fire Lieutenants Describe Mayor As "Tyrannical" The New York City Fire Lieutenants have decided to take an aggressive stand in the current feud between men in the department and Mayor LaGuardia. They have set up a committee "in an attempt to present tht true facte on the current dispute." The committee consists of Lieutenants John P. Mullen, chairman; Martin O'Connor, Reuben Timmins, William H. Rusenmeir, Jr., and Maurice W. DuBois. The statement: "Members of the New York Fire Department have never, as a body, sought deferment of themselves. It was the Mayor's and Fire Commissioner's idea. In fact Members who enlisted in the aimed forces were branded "slackers" and "unpatriotic" by the Fire Commissioner. Many members of the Department were refused releases, and in many cases were carried 'Absent without Leave' when they enlisted in the armed services. Still others were forced to resign from the department, so as to be eligible for military duty. It was only on the advice of the Corporation Counsel that these members were again placed on the rolls of this department. "As of January 1, the Fire Commissioner notified the draft board officials that no deferments would be any longer sought. The Mayor, by his usual innuendos and devious methods, has associated the present court case with this decision. T h e court case was instituted before the above decision by the Fire Commissioner. ton, Peter McBride, Thomas M. Smith, and Samuel W. Lyons. Joshua C. Cohen, senior bookkeper in the office of the Comptroller, expressed his intention of contributing a pint of blood every eight weeks for the duration. He has already met "Gallon Club" qualifications, and will soon contribute his ninth pint. Harry Annenberg and Paul Seidman of the Board of Education, Bureau of Supplies, have also made tlie "Gallon Club" mark.

The day never goes by when The LEADER office doesn't get complaints like these: "I wrote three times to the Civil Service Commission in Washington about my retirement- money. I need that money. I haven't been working for the Government since November. They don't even answer me." Or— "I had a permanent job in the Treasury Department. I was asked to transfer to a job in Ordnance, War Dept. The work was finished, and I was tossed out. I've tried to tell somebody I'm supposed to be a permanent employee, but nobody listens." Or— "I asked the Navy Yard for a release, so I could take a private job. They told me no, and if I insisted charges would be brought against me. Is this fair? What can I do about it?" It seems clear that there is great need for a better system of information between government departments and employees. The LEADER knows of cases where personnel men in Federal offices haven't possessed even an elementary knowledge of such things as time-off regulations. We don't recommend that large information-dispensing establishments be set up in all agencies: not when manpower is needed so desperately to do the war job. We do make these specific suggestions, however: IA —That personnel men, and all others who deal in employee relations, be required to take a course in the elements of their duties. We would go even further, and suggest periodic examinations to make sure they've kept up with the regulations. O—That employees be given a smooth system of appeals from ^ straw-boss decisions which might be arbitrary, biased, or based on whim. O—That, within the limitations of war economy, some " means- of providing accurate information be established for Government employees, who are now often hopelessly befuddled. 4—That the Council of Personnel Administration take up this problem and stick with it until a feasible solution is found. r—That the U. S. Civil Service Commission's Labor-Man^ agement Committee do the same thing. Preference for Volunteer Firemen? OVERNOR DEWEY has before him at this writing the Sherman bill (Int. 1670) which provides in substance that when positions held by veterans or volunteer firemen are abolished, they shall be "the first to fill a vacant or unfilled position." This bill is claimed to be unconstitutional on the ground that it gives preference to both veterans and volunteer firemen over those on opencompetitive and preferred eligible lists. Such preference is not authorized under the State's Constitution. But whatever the constitutionality, where do the volunteer firemen fit in? The merit system cannot operate effectively if it is to be whittled down by preference of one kind or another to special groups trying to horn in on the backs of the veterans. The preference accorded by this bill would be controversial even if it were limited to veterans. It is indefensible when extended to volunteer firemen. If volunteer firemen are to be given special preferences in filling civil service vacancies, by what process of reasoning can similar credit be denied Red Cross workers, air raid wardens, lire wardens, block leaders, USO workers, and other citizens who likewise volunteer to perform a public service !

POLICE CALLS One-Man Lobby Loses Again in Attempt To Help Older Cops With Their Pensions Once again, William Dunham, retired New York Cittj police sergeant, has won an empty victory, for although! this one-man, one-bill lobby got his police pension proposal through the Legislature Governor Dewey has vetoed it, without comment. lobby for one bill. For years h e Time and again since 1936, Mr. Dunham has succeeded in getting the bill, which would revise all old police pensions upward to present levels, through one or both houses of the Legislature. He has fought against the powerful lobbyists for the municipalities and the State Conference of Mayors and Mayor LaGuardia. Unaided, he has met success in varying degree but h e has yet to surmount the opposition of the Chief Executive. Dunham is 70, apple-cheeked, and spry. He has bushy eyebrows, twinkling gray eyes, a gray moustache. He always wears a derby hat, stiff collar, string tie, and carries a brief case. He h a s been a familiar figure on Capitol Hill in Albany since 1936 when he first got his pension bill introduced. It passed both houses once and was vetoed by Governor Lehman. Then h e got it through the Assembly and although he raced to the Senate to keep an eye on the bill it was lost en route in one of those charactistic, confusing, jumbled closing sessions of the Legislature. This year the bill, introduced by Assemblyman Patrick H. Sullivan, T a m many district leader, passed both houses again, this time without a dissenting vote. Dunham a Lawyer For 23 years, Dunhan, a lawyer, was a member of the New York City police and this year he celebrated his 23d anniversary since his retirement. He doesn't practice law now. He is in retirement, does a little dabbling in the stock market (wherein he is successful) and his chief interest has been in getting his pension proposal enacted into law. He is a one-man has done nothing else every s e s sion but concentrate on t h a t measure. One of his oddities i s that he commutes daily betwe n New York and Albany during legislative sessions, preferring a short night's rest in the Big City to a long one in Albany Would Aid Retired Cops Although his bill was statewide in effect its principal interest lay in New York City where, Dunham said, many retired policemen are getting as low a* $700 a year pension. "My bill would bring these low pensions up to the levels received by pensioners since salaries went up and since pensions went up, grade for grade", h e said. It is a fair bill and a just bill and was vetoed by Governor Lehman only because of Mayor LaGuardia's objections which were d i rected more against me t h a n against the bill," h e added. The bill provides that evera •retired policeman, of whateve* rank, "shall henceforth be granted and paid a pension in such m a x imum annual sum as he would now be entitled to under said present schedules." Then the bill goes on to set forth this declaration of policy, unique in measures of this kind: "It is the intention of the Legislature in the enactment of this section (amending the general municipal law) to rectify a n d adjust to present schedules of p o lice compensation and retirement pensions the pay of low pensioned policemen whose compensation was not increased when the salaries of the entire police forpe or other offical organization o n !

FISHER President, The Association of State Civil Service Employees In writing "The State Employee** as a regular weekly feature of The LEADER, Harold J. Fisher discusses all and any matters of interest to employee* of the State of New York. He is writing this column with complete leeway to express his own views. T H E QUESTION as to whether the State of New York intends t o follow the fair policy of "equal pay for equal work" as written Into the State's Civil Service law, is a t this writing definitely before t h e Salary Standardization Board for decision. It is involved in the decision of the Board with regard to the allocation of positions held by workers a t Matteawan and Dannemora State Hospitals. A previous Salary Standardization Board—the Board which allocated all other positions in departmental service with a high degree of intelligence and fairness—allocated the positions of attendants in these institutions t o the prison guard rate of pay, namely, $2000 to $2600. Employees at Matteawan and Dannemora demonstrated to t h e Board a t a hearing on March 27th, as they have demonstrated many times previously, that in caring for prisoners, they do work similar ^ a n d possibly more difficult—to that performed by employees of any other institution of the State. In this they are supported by the heads of their institutions and by all disinterested parties who have studied t h e matter. Unconstitutional To Hire Private Men, Says Assn. STATE C I V I L S E R V I C E ALBANY—It's unconstitutional! That's the view of the Association of State Civil Service Employees, which last week urged the Governor to veto a bill before him which would allow the Public Works Department to enter Into private contracts with engineers, architects and consultants without any civil service safeguards whatsoever. The Hastings bill (Senate Int. 1526) won't stand VP under a decision of the Court of Appeals in Turel v. Delaney, 285 N. Y., 16, says the Association. Incidentally, the proposal contained in t h e Hastings bill was originally introduced as a special measure, the Bennison measure (Assembly Int. 1310). When opposition t o tfie Bennison bill became evident, substantially the same provisions were included in the form of a rider to the Hastings bill, thereby preventing consideration of this highly controversial measure on its own merits. Subordinate e m p l o y e e s who think a supervisor's life is just a bed of roses should scan the results cf a study on " A t t i t u d e Toward Supervision in Civil Service" made among civil service employees In office and semi-office positions at the lederal, state, co m'.y and city levels within Los Angeles County. Results of the study, compiled by Philip J. Schlessinger at the University cf Southern California, showed that such employees "were r e t likely to become supervisors before thirty years of ageo and were more likely to be supervisors if at all, by forty years of age" and that "only as many as 10 per cent of the supervisors ever s e r / ed twenty-three years or more." Can it be that the other ninety percent just can't take it? The answer to this question may be supplied by the further findings of Mr. Schlessinger listed below. What They Are Up Against According to the survey: Most supervisors believe their planning functions are hampered by red tape. They think their compensation is not on a par with that of ether supervisors performing similar work in private industry." They feel that the selection of non-civil service officials "puts a a ceiling on their incentives and thereby lowers their morale and high spirit " They believe there is a need for tangible incentives in civil service. "Favoritism haunts the minds of the supervisors," and they feel that promotions should be based on merit first and seniority second. Supervisors look upon service ratings "with some misgivings." The supervisors feel that civil service personnel administration is not yet flexible enough to allow for transfer of maladjustment cases. On the Negative Side Weighted down by their own problems it may not be surpris'ng NOW THE DECISION in this case is not a local one, although its effect may be local. Every decision made by groups of men, which decisions affect the lives of their fellow men, are serious decisions and must be grounded in moral law. The T e n Commandments a n d the law of the State seem similar as to what constitutes social justice in t h e case of the State workers concerned. T h e "job security and basic income security" (a phrase coined by Eric A. Johnston, President of the United States Chamber of Commerce) becomes a reality for State employees when the spirit and the letter of the Civil Service law are observed. T h e analysis by Mr. Johnston recently, as to t h e responsibility of both managem e n t and labor, is a refreshing one., T h e workers at Dannemora and Matteawan are outstanding examples of m e n and women who have served their State faithfully and well for many years without just or adequate economic income. T h e Salary Standardization Board and the Budget Division-now have the opportunity to correct t h i s situation. T h e State can do a h a l f - w a y job by continuing to compromise with right, or it can pay these workers the prison guard scales that applied on October 1, 1943, the scales of pay to which they are justly entitled. THE STATE ASSOCIATION h a s addressed letters to the Governor approving a number of bills having to do with one or another important Civil Service matter. T h e measure (Assembly introductory 640, print 928), which provides that the Civil Service Commission may appoint the officers and employees of the Classification Division, is objectionable because it destroys the independence of the Classification Division as set up in t h e Civil Service law. T h e classification and re-classification of positions is a very important function which by its very nature should be free from political and other influence. If the determinations exf the Classification Division should be made on any basis other t h a n strict impartiality o n the basis of the facts, it would wreck personnel administration a n d play havoc with the merit system. At the present time, the Classification Board is working in complete harmony and close cooperation with the Civil Service Commission, but there may come a time w h e n it would be of extreme importance for the Classification Division to assert its independent role in the interests of safeguardi n g merit system principles. T h e power to appoint its own employees is an essential part of this independence. Under the present law, t h e Civil Service Commission h a s the power to review all determinations of the Classification Board. This is an additional reason w h y the Board should have t h e power to appoint its own employees lor a review of the Civil Service Commission would be of little effect if the Commission itself h a s the power to appoint all employees of t h e Board. The reasons for giving the Classification Board an i n dependent status when it was originally created are as sound today as they were in the beginning. We know nothing which h a s happened i n the past few years which would require the change which h a s been made by this bill. We feel that the bill is not only unnecessary but that it is also a decided step in the wrong direction. I shall comment on some other measures in future columns. NYC Register's Employee Entitled To State Bonus In a decision which has several Interesting implications, the New York County Supreme Court recently ruled that a mortgage tax examiner employed in the office of the City Register to collect the State Mortgage tax is a State employee and not a city employee. The action was brought by the examiner to compel the City Register to pay him the additional war emergency compensation granted to State employees under a special act of the Legislature passed last year. Payment has been refused on the ground that the mortgage tax examiner was not a State employee. The Court held the tax examiner entitled to such additional compensation. If the mortgage tax examiner employed by the City Register is a State employee, so, undoubtedly, are the mortgage tax examiners employed by county clerks throughout the State. Such examiners also would be entitled to the State's additional war emergency compensation. Whether mortgage tax examiners will be entitled to claim the status of State employees in order to qualify for additional war emergency compensation during the next fiscal year commencing April 1 is problematical, in view of a recent amendment to the mortgage law, effective on the same date. (Chapter 122, Laws of 1944.) Under the law as it applied In the case of the City Register's employee, the mortgage tax was a State tax, part of which was retained by the City Register and by the County Clerks to cover the expenses of collection. Out of the monies retained the mortgage tax examiners were paid. However, under the amendment to the mortgage tax law, which amendment could not be considered by the Court in the instant case, the entire mortgage tax collected is to remain in the hands of the collecting officer (i.e. the City Register or the County Clerk), for the sole benefit of their respective localities. With the State receiving no part of the mortgage tax in the future, It may well be that the tax examiners employed in the collection of such tax will have to be considered as employees of their respective localities and not as State employees.

How Supervisors Feel Prison Wage Rate Signed by Dewey " ALBANY—Governor Dewey has signed the Wicks bill changing the salary schedule for employees in the prisons safety service by putting them into a bracketspread of $1,300 to $1,800. This was the measure which the Association of State Civil Service Employees first opposed and which the Governor asked the Legislature, in a special message, to pass for him. The Governor said the bill would increase and bolster morale in the service and the Association withdrew its objections upon a promise that if the bill didn't work out, further negotiations would be undertaken by the Budget Director and the Governor with representatives of the Association. BRIEFS By THEODORE BECKER that the supervisors admit: They aren't prone to encourage employees' consultations, especially if they involved personal problems. They feel they have neither the time nor the capacity to counsel workers on personal problems. They seldom help their subordinates when the work load is heavy. They do not make it a regular practice to inform-higher officials about the unusual accomplishments of their subordinates. Workers' Attitude What the employees thought of their supervisors was also given careful consideration in the survey and will be covered in a subsequent column. Enlistees Entitled to Military Leaves State employees, who desire to avail themselves of the advantages of enlisting and choosing their branch of the service in the armed forces instead of waiting until they are drafted, are sometimes deterred because they believe that they must resign their positions in order to enlist or that enlisteees do not receive the same privileges of leave of absence and reinstatement that drafted employees get. Enlistees Protected As far back as 1942, the Legislature made special provision to clear up any doubets that public employees who enlist are entitled to the same privileges as employees who are drafted. The Legislature amended the Military Law to provide that all public employees who perform military duty shall be granted military leaves of absence during such duty "irrespective o) th fact that such service was entered upon mfollowing a voluntary enlistment therefor." Such enlistees are also entitled tc all the other rights and privileges accorded to employees who are drafted. PublicWorks D ept. to Treble N umber of Post-War Jobs; Will Junk Merit System ALBANY—One of the most unique bills ever passed by the Legislature, with the approval of Governor Dewey, will soon be law. This measure, introduced in the final hours of the legislative session by Rules Committee (Senate Intro. 1708: Print 2029), is one of the Public Works program bills m a y b e flve. It is expected that after the war, when men and materials become available, the state will begin a highway - bridge - grade crossing - institution construction program that will cost around $100,000,000 a year. The Public Works Department will be in complete charge and it is probable that the personnel will be more than trebled. Officials talk about the employment of additional thousands to handle all the many phases of this great development. May Junk All Protections Under the Rules Committee act, the Civil Service Commission is empowered to junk all law and regulations governing the employment of the thousands of engineers, draftsmen, architects, clerks, and other kinds of help that will be needed. Instead, these employees will be hired on a noncompetitive, no-test, temporary basis for an unlimited period. They will become the "emergency" part of a mammoth "emergency" organization. When the great public works program begins to taper off, the shake-down process begins and when lay-offs occur, it will be from the ranks of these temporaries, not from those with permanent appointments. Veteran Problem Officials of the department keep repeating that civil service employees, and their representatives, shouldn't be worried. As a matter of fact, they say, the act is designed to short-circuit a grab of permanent jobs in- the department by war veterans. "But under this act." said officials referring to the Rules Committee proposal, "the Public Works Department will be preserving its permanent organization against inroads under the veteran mandate. There will be two personnel organizations — the regular, line organization of permanent employees and then another of temporary employees, which will fluctuate as work progresses or slackens off. We intend to suspend original and promotion examinations for all important jobs until after the emergency period is over, and that may be three years and it "But under this act, although there probably will be hundreds of veterans employed on a temporary basis, none of them will be able to demand retention when the lay-offs come. I n other words, our permanent organization will continue intact. Otherwise, when the layoffs come, the veteran could demand his preferential rights (assuming the Constitutional amendment is adopted) and thereby demand that older and permanent employees be laid off to make way for him. There could be no other action possible—unless we had some sort of arrangement as is provided in this bill." Despite assurances of public works officials that no evasion of civil service is intended under the act, John DeGraff, counsel to the Association of State Civil Service Employees, filed a protest with Governor Dewey condemning the measure. "There is no reason why the Public Works Department," said DeGraff, "can't do what they want to do under this proposal by duration appointments. The Civil Service Commission has provided by rule for making duration appointments and this legislation is unnecessary for that reason. "Moreover, it is bad precedent to seek special statutory exceptions to civil service procedure. This proposal plus the department's reorganization measure, providing for private employment of architects and engineers by the department, all outside the scope of civil service, constitute a real threat to the maintenance of the merit system in this State. It is dangerous legislation and if the Public Works Department can get away with it, so could any other, or all, departments."

Page Fourteen Tuesday, April 4, 1944 CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Having a Leg Bitten no Fun, Say Hospital Attendants 8,200 Hospital Employees Request Better Conditions ALBANY—With two members of the Assembly present in support of their proposal, representatives of guardattendants at Matteawan and Dannemora state hospitals for the criminal insane this week pleaded for re-classification of their status to the same brackets as prison guards. To bring the plight of Mental Hygiene employees before Governor Dewey, a petition addressed to the Governor, signed by 8,200 Mental Hospital workers was delivered to Paul Lockwood, his secretary, recently. The plea for this recognition, with its promised additional compensation, was made to the Salary Standarlzation Board, which reserved decision. Assemblymen Ryan of Clinton County and Hatfield of Dutchess County spoke in support of the arguments advanced by the institution employees in their districts. T h e hospital guards themselves advanced strong reasons why they should be in the same category as prison guards, A favorite method of committing mayhem on a guard, it was said, is the urge on the part of a disgruntled insane patient to sneak up on a guard and bite him in the leg. Guards also must be on the alert to prevent patients, who are compelled to aid i n the kitchens because of the help shortage, from tossing a quid of tobacco or a pair of sox into the soup or stew. Representatives of the Association of State Civil Service Employees said they would continue the fight to get prison guard status for the employees in the hospitals for the criminal insane. The budget originally proposed to allocate these employees to a $l,500-$2,000 range, although the present entering salary with allowances is $1504 and an employee with 20 years of service can now reach $2,084. Employee representatives urged that these employees be allocated to the same salary as prison guards, vis., to *2,000-$2,600. State Assn. Argues For Fair Salaries At the hearing held before the Salary Standardization Board last week relating to the allocation of employees at Matteawan and Dannemora under the new schedules in the prison safety service, the State Association appeared together with a delegation of employees from both Dannemora and Matteawan. The delegation contended that if the principle of "equal pay for equal work" means anything, the employees should be allocated on the same basis as employees in the prisons. It was pointed out . . . —that these employees are e n gaged in guarding the criminaly insane; that this work is even more dangerous than guarding the sane criminals; that the guard - attendants wear the same uniform as prison guards and are subject to the same rules and regulations issued by the Correction Department. Employee representatives related the dangerous incidents that occur on the job.They told of cases where employees had suffered broken backs, broken pervises, broken jaws, and how it was not at all uncommon for inmates to attempt to choke the employees handling them. The petition carries names of employees in all categories and from all State Hospitals and Schools. Explaining the background of the petition, Leo F. Gurry, president of the Association of Employees of the Mental Hygiene Department, says: "Last September at the annual meeting of the Association, the delegates felt it would be expedient to have a committee state the case of employees of the Mental Hygiene Department. A hearing was requested, but we were sent LEO F.

Important Points Here are sofme of the salient points in the petition: 1. Request to place n o n - s t a t u tory employees under F e l d - H a m ilton. 2. Protesting the ruling which allows top-grade positions only to hospitals with a population of 5.000 or over. (Director, director of clinical laboratories, senior d e n tist, stationary engineers, laundry supervisor, chief occupational therapist, chief scoial worker, etc.) 3. Protesting failure of t h e Classification and Salary Boards to act. 4. Protesting change of policy in administering the Feld-Hamilton Act relative to the Mental Hygiene Department. President Gurry was informed by Mr. Lockwood that the petition would be presented to the Governor, and that he would try to arrange for a hearing. At press time, the Association was waiting for definite word from the Governor. MANHATTAN BORO OFFICE SETS UP RED CROSS COMM. Manhattan Borough Pres.

Dewey Former Employees May Join State Retirement Plan ALBANY—Of vast importance to former State employees now in Federal service and to some former Federal employees who have gone into State service, is the Governor's approval of the Schulman bill (Assembly Intro. 1953: Print 2221), which permits both kinds of employees to join or continue in the State Retirement System. II S Members of either house of Congress or their employees or US Attorneys and their assistants, in New York, may join the State pension system or continue therein by payment of both their own and the State's contribution to the fund. State employees formerly in the Federal service may have the full benefit of their former Federal service by paying into the State fund their own and the State contributions for the years they were in Federal service.

Transfers (1) Where an employee Is transferred to a similar position, or is promoted or appointed to a position in the same service and grade, he shall receive credit in his new position for permanent service rendered in the position from which he was transferred, promoted or appointed, as the case may be. This applies also where the transfer is made from a non-Feld-Hamilton position to a Feld-Hamilton position, provided, however, that in transfers from county service to State service, county service cannot be considered. (m) Where an employee's position is reclassified by Commission resolution, from the exempt class to a Feld-Hamilton position in the competitive or non-competitive class he shall receive credit in such new classification for service rendered in the old classification. Effect of Salary Adjustments for Employees in Feld-Hamilton Positions Prior to April 1, 1944< CIVIL SERVICE LEADER General Bradley's Column LaGuardia Budgef Message B y The problem of the returning veteran was brought to the attention of New York officials of the U. S. Civil Service. In a meeting with James E. Rossell, Director, Second Civil Service Region, and Joseph Bodie, in charge of veterans' affairs for that office, representatives of veterans brought up current grievances. The Complaints First was the problem of promotions. Servicemen who have returned to their positions complain that persons who started with them in Civil Service have advanced. When they return they start back at their old grade. When they ask, "Why?" this, they complain is the type of response they get. . . . "You didn't receive a rating for the period when you were in service, so you aren't eligible for any increase in Court Cases Affecting Civil Employees Clerical, Labor Semi-Professional Job Openings One-Man Lobby Mens' Clothe* 100% Wool Only Alterations Free For One Year SUITS.

"Your name was dropped from the promotional panel since you were in service" . . . or . . . "How do you know that you would have been recommended for an increase in grade and that you would have gotten it if you hadn't gone into service?" Another complaint of the discharged servicemen is that they are passed over for promotion when it is discovered that they are disabled. Robert I. Queen, chairman of legislation and public relations of the Bronx County Disabled American Veterans, attended the meeting as a representative of veteran groups. He reports that Mr. Rossell said that a "directive or departmental" order favorably a f fecting veterans was now in the process of preparation. The complaint of the veterans are not directed against the U. S. Civil Service Commission, but against personnel officers in various agencies who, the veterans feel, discriminate against them.

ATTENTION Tuesday, April 4, 1, There's an urgent need for employees, both m e n and female, at the Port of Embarkation, Newport News, Virginia. These positions are in the sub-professional, clerical, mechanical, guard and labor fields such as Statisticians, Technicians, Auto Mechanics. Storekeepers, Laborers, Truck Drivers, Patrolmen, higher grade Clerks, Stenographers and Typists and m a n y others. T h e jobs are for an important war project in Newport News, Virginia, where housing is provided at rates $3.50 and $5.00 weekly for dormitories and unfurnished three and four-room apartments with central heat, refrigeration, rent from $33 to $57 monthly (2 bedrooms). Free transportation is provided by the government to Virginia and free transportation to and from work is also provided in Newport News. Men with 1-A draft classification with children born prior to September 14, 1942, are eligible to apply. 4F's are also acceptable. There are no age limits. Recreation facilities are provided and City Schools are available in all communities. For immediate employment in a job where the work is essential and immediately concerned with the war effort report to Civil Service Representative Robert D. McCabe, Room 638, Federal Building. 641 Washington Street, New York, N. Y. Cost-of-living salary adjustments for virtually all of the present employees of this Department aggregate the sum of $2,315,000 on an annual basis. An amount of $350,000 to meet the actual cash needs for the Nurse cost of living adjustment for the period from December 1, 1943, to June 30, 1944, was obtained by transfer out of the remainder of $8,000 000 originally set up for the July 1, 1943 adjustment for those other employees receiving less than $2,500 a year. In addition to this budget Increase, provision is also made for a total of $167,000 for mandatory increments and $417,000 more for the actual cash required in extending the customary $30 semiannual increments for the low paid hospital workers—a grand total of $584,000 for these adjustments. Welfare The total appropriation made to the Department of Welfare for personal service is $11,222,186 in all funds. This is a decrease of $786,789.50. There have been 752 vacant positions dropped and other ecenomies made to keep pace with declining caseloads. The appropriation is predicated on the basis of properly investigating and administering to the cases still with us. The Budget provides for the number of cases estimated to require assistance in the ensuing year. We have almost reached the irreducible minimum, and although the appropriation anticipates a decline between now and June_ 1945, H will not be as pronounced as heretofore. The Welfare budget does not make provision to meet any serious unemployment problems which might occur because of good news from the war fronts. Municipal Courts I have provided for the continuance of the cost-of-living "bonus" of the attaches and employees of the court by reducing the salaries of the Municipal Court Justices. I know they will heartily approve of this plan. They have always displayed such great interest in the employees of the court. The present salary of a Municipal Court Justice is $10,840 and I have reduced it now to $10,340, which is $340 more t h a n the pay of a Magistrate who is working very hard at this time. The City's piers and bulkheads are being utilized to capacity with resulting increased revenues. T o permit the intensive use of th structures with a minimum of a c cidents it is necessary to make* timely repairs. I have, therefore, increased the time allowance for the per diem dockbuilding force of this department, engaged in maintenance and repair of the piers, from 210 days to 230 days per annum. Department of Markets The increase of $22,405 in the Personal Service of this Department is due to the need for additional labor to operate the power plant and warehouse at the Bronx Terminal Market. There are 40,000 retail food stores in this City. In thousandss of cases, these retailers need ex planation of price ceiling regulations and other OPA rules. The Department of Markets gives t h e retailer the proper explanation. All this costs the City thousands'\ of dollars. In the Department of 1 Markets alone, there are 95 I n spectors who patrol the City food outlets, and, in addition, 18 women Welfare Investigators assist t h e m in making purchases in retail stores.

State and County Courts and City Courts It was my intention to provide for cost-of-living increases for t h e employees of these courts, similar^ to such "bonuses" provided l o r l employees of most City departments. However, it is necessary t o obtain offsetting savings within City departments to finance the cost of these "bonuses," and t h £ same situation applies with respecT to these courts. Therefore, in the case of those courts which are meeting all or the greater part of this "bonus" cost by agreeing to accrue offsetting savings, I have provided for this cost-of-living adjustment for their employees in the 1944-1945 Budget in a n atf* gregate of $267,280. But in t h e case of those courts where there is no indication of a willingness to aid in financing these "bonuses" by other savings, I regret I could not justifiably provide the higher rates of compensation in my E x ecutive Budget. 114 POLICE PROMOTIONS MADE IN NEW YORK CITY One hundred and fourteen New York City police officer promotions were made last week when 4 new captains were appointed, 5 acting captains, 32 lieutenants and 73 sergeants.
