Latest Rules on Releases For Government Workers 4 WASHINGTON—Here is the latest dope on Government's release and transfer policy. It was worked out by iWMC Director Paul V. McNutt for OPA employees, but is recommended for all Federal employees. First, if you should quit without getting a release, you have to tWait 30 days a f t e r your a n n u a l leave expires t o t a k e another .Government job and 60 days to go i n t o private industry. However—and this is the joker •—you can't get a job even a f t e r ,waiting unless you get a " r e f e r r a l " f r o m t h e United S t a t e s E m ployment Service. So if you p l a n t o quit, better check with t h a t agency first. Your Highest Skill T o get a release a written request must De m a d e 30 days bef o r e the proposed d a t e of release [(except for u n d u e h a r d s h i p ) . If you claim a release on grounds t h a t your best skills a r e n ' t being fully utilized a n d can convince your agency of t h a t , you will be referred to Civil Service. If civil service can't find a spot for you t h e y will release you to private industry. Most consideration will be given requests for releases on t h e claim of personal hardship. For example: a claim t h a t a change of locality is needed f o r h e a l t h r e a sons, or to avoid lengthy s e p a r a tion f r o m family. More Cash Won't Count A plea t h a t you have a job lined u p t h a t will pay more money is not considered a n adequate reason for t h e issuance of a release. Anyone who came to Governm e n t with a definite u n d e r s t a n d ing about when h e could r e t u r n t o his former job will automatically be given a release when terms of the agreement are fulfilled. T h e personnel office of your agency must be notified immediately of such agreement, however. W h e n an employee is laid off or discharged, h e will a u t o m a t i cally be given a certificate of availability unless t h e discharge was deliberatly provoked. I n t h a t case USES will get authority t o decide when h e can go t o work. If You're Denied. If your appeal for a release is denied, you can appeal to t h e a p peal board in t h e agency a n d finally, to t h e Civil Service Commission. You then h a v e a f u r t h e r appeal to t h e W a r Manpower Commission. Before a n employee contacts a n o t h e r agency about a new job, it is essential to inform his present supervisor of his intentions. An employee's release to a n o t h e r agency will not be approved if h e fails t o submit t h e advance n o tice required by this procedure. Recommendation from his agency t h a t an employee be allowed to go to another agency will usually be followed by t h e Commission. Agencies have t h e sole power for granting t r a n s f e r s within t h e agency.

That's one of the ideas presented at meetings of City officials who are trying to find ways to improve the service ratings setup of the municipal government. . At present t h e employee with a highly satisfactory record of service ratings receives extra credit on promotional examinations. B u t the m a t t e r of salary i n creases dependS in m a n y cases on requests f r o m t h e department heads to the Budget Bureau, t h e n approval by t h e Mayor. Covered by McCarthy Law City employees in t h e lower brackets are covered by t h e McC a r t h y I n c r e m e n t Law passed in 1936, which provides a n n u a l i n creases of $120 until t h e employee reaches t h e top of his civil service salary grade. B u t this only covers positions which have a minimum salary of $1,800 or less. a model for adoption by all City departments. Under t h e Housing Authority plan, employees with aboveaverage service ratings receive ext r a increments. Employees e a r n ing under $2,400 a year come under this plan of "merit i n creases." Service reports are handled in the Authority exactly the same as in all other departments. T h e r a t i n g forms are sent to t h e Service R a t i n g Bureau of t h e Civil Service Commission, where they a r e checked. Top reward f o r a n excellent service r a t i n g a t t h e Authority is a "double" increment of $240 instead of t h e usual $120." And t h e employees receive t h e regular service credit on promotion examinations. Each employee's service r a t i n g is broken down numerically so t h a t t h e extra increment awards can be m a d e on a n objective basis. Model System T h e NYC Housing Authority, a City agency which operates i n dependently of t h e Mayor a n d t h e Budget Office, h a s set up a system of increases based on service ratings which is being studied as change, as well a s in foreign t r a d e a n d related fields, are being sought for these positions.

Thousands of Greeks, Yugoslavs, a n d Albanians have been uprooted within their countries who m u s t be fed, clothed, sheltered a n d returned to their homes. UNRRA needs r e sponsible administrators t o carry on this work.

One of them, Lemuel D. Ayers, a physician with t h e Board of T r a n s p o r t a t i o n is now 71 -and was granted a previous extension beyond t h e m a n d a t o r y age of 70. William F.

Peacock, Assistant Counsel, Board of T r a n s portation, are t h e others. The proposal to make the present cost-of-living bonus for New York City employees a permanent increase came before the Board of Estimate last week, and was thrown for a loss. t u r n the bonus into a p e r m a n e n t Legal papers were being d r a w n up last week asking t h e S t a t e Civil Service Commission to c a n cel a resolution of the NYC Civil Service Commission, which s h i f t s around foremen and assistant foremen in the City Board of Transportation. Here's the background of the complaint: First the Board of T r a n s p o r tation passed a resolution eliminating assistant foremen (cars and shops) and making the men foremen. T h e n this was approved by t h e Civil Service Commission a n d Mayor LaGuardia. Some Employees Protest But some employees of the Board of Transportation argued t h a t this action violated their rights. To begin with: They say the positions of foremen and assistant foremen entail different duties and different civil service tests h a d been given for t h e jobs. I n addition, a t t h e time of t h e change, a n examination for p r o motion to foreman was in progress. and some m e n who were car maintainers h a d t a k e n the e x a m ination. Now if all t h e assistants are moved up, there won't be any room for t h e maintainers who pass t h e test. I n addition, t h e assistant foremen who pass t h e test, and those who fail it will r e ceive exactly the same promotion. T h a t , they think, isn't according to Hoyle. Roy M o n a h a n is handling t h e case for t h e dissatisfied subway workers who w a n t to have t h e promotions wait until t h e test is completed a n d a list of eligibles issued. Commission Employees Talk Out Problems Employees of t h e NYC Civil Service Commission recently got together with t h e Commissioners f o r a h e a r t - t o - h e a r t talk about t h e m a n y personnel problems a r o u n d the Commission's offices. Representatives^ of t h e Association of Employees of t h e Commission and the union local in t h e Commission met with officials, a n d t h e employees were able to report progress on some points: Sick Leave Sick leave and vacation regulations were changed to allow t r a n s f e r of up to 12 days sick leave to t h e 1944 vacation. T h e requirement t h a t employees m a i n t a i n reserve sick leave was dropped. A 6-day g r a n t of sick leave to new employees was also dropped. G r a n t s of sick leave for service prior to 1939 were also abolished. However, t h e Commission indicated t h a t in cases of serious illness, additional sick leave would be granted. On Salaries ' Employees pointed out t h a t morale in the Commission was slipping because of t h e lack of salary a d j u s t m e n t s . T h e recent reorganization of t h e Commission h a d led employees to believe t h a t they would receive increases to f i t in with their new functions. W h e n t h e increases were announced, t h e y covered mainly t h e top a d ministrative s t a f f . T h e lower-paid examining a n d clercal workers h a d been carrying extra duties a n d t h e y f o u n d themselves left out in t h e cold. President Esther Bromley told t h e employees t h a t t h e Commission would submit requests f o r lower-bracket increases to t h e Budget Director in about two months. i Promotions Only 5 promotions to stenographer, grade 3 were m a d e on July 1. T h e Commission promised t o t r y and get more next J a n u a r y . T h e Budget Office is holding up » promotion examination to i n vestigator, a n d t h e Commission said it would try to speed it along. T h e employees asked for promotion examinations to Clerk, grade 2; a n d Typist, grade 2. T h e Commission said it was studying t h e question of holding these on a •ity-wide basis. ii Training An in-service training service course on Administrative a n d Examining Procedures was asked by t h e staff. T h e Commission took t h e request under advisement. But even a f t e r t h e confab, t h e r e a r e still plenty of unsettled problems around t h e place. t Let Yets Erect War Monuments, Urges Nathan New York City employees who e r e in the armed forces will find work a f t e r the war in building monuments. T h a t ' s t h e suggestion of M a n h a t t a n Borough Presid e n t Edgar N a t h a n , Jr., which h e presented to t h e Board of Estim a t e last week. Mr. N a t h a n ' s proposal was t h a t t h e building of any m o n u m e n t s b e put off till a f t e r t h e war ends. T h e n , h e says, t h e returning vete r a n s will find jobs waiting in erection of projects to commemor a t e those who fought and died i n the war. Architects, painters, engineers, iandscapers, other workers would tiave jobs under such a plan, ac•QttHog to Mr, N a t h a n . First, because of some "misunderstanding," the Board didn't know anything about the f a c t t h a t t h e City Council h a d passed a resolution t h e week before asking t h e m to m a k e the bonus p e r m a nent. W h e n it was brought to t h e Board's attention by Louis Collin, c h a i r m a n of the Council Finance Committee, t h e Board members promptly dropped it like a hot potato. Persons who showed up to talk on t h e bonus weren't allowed to speak, a n d were finally told t h a t there would be a f u t u r e hearing on t h e m a t t e r when they'd have a chance to talk. How I t Was Handled Here's how t h e resolution to increase was handled. 1. I t was referred to the Budget Director for a report. 2. Sometime, in the f u t u r e , t h e Budget Bureau will make a r e port, a n d t h e item will appear on the Board of Estimate Calendar. 3. T h e n some day, the Board of Estimate will convene as a "Committee of the Whole" and hold a public hearing. A question "But when?" didn't get any response except a smile f r o m some of the Board members. However, a t the time he granted the bonus, Mayor L a G u a r d i a required each City employee to sign a waiver t h a t t h e increase was being accepted as a temporary bonus. The Council h a s no powers in this case, except to pass a reso- lution, asking LaGuardia and the Board members to act. Other Pay Bills Meanwhile, two other bills a f fecting the earnings of NYC e m ployees are in the Council hopper. 1. Introduced by Councilman Michael Quill, to give all City employees earning less t h a n $5,000 a year, an increase of $400; per diem workers earning less t h a n $20 a day, a n increase of $1.60 a day. 2. Introduced by Councilman Anthony J. DiGiovanna, to restore Sunday pay to employees of t h e D e p a r t m e n t of Sanitation. This was discontinued in December 1943; now they are entitled to time off for Sunday work. T h e resolution asks the Commissioner of Sanitation, the Mayor and t h e Board of Estimate to make necessary appropriations. Savage Attack on Fire Dept. Gag Rule By FRANCIS KELLY The "gag" rule in the NYC Fire Department w h i c h leaves members of the municipal fire force who make any statement in public open to disciplinary action, is now being attacked in court by the Uniformed Firemen's Association. The Civil Liberties Union has also stepped into the case. T h e case was brought to a h e a d when Fire Commissioner Patrick Walsh called Vincent Kane, president of the Uniformed Firemen's Association, into his office and told h i m t h a t h e (Kane) could m a k e no f u r t h e r statements of any kind, either for publication or otherwise, concerning members of the UFA in relation to t h e Fire D e p a r t m e n t ; a n d ordered h i m t o carry this message back to all officers of the UFA, under t h r e a t of d e p a r t m e n t a l action. T h a t came right a f t e r J o h n P. Crane, vice president of t h e UFA, a n d 5 Fire Lieutenants who h a d dared criticise t h e actions of Commissioner Walsh, were exiled to outlying fire houses where they h a d to work a n 84 hour a week schedule instead of the 56 hours per week in t h e districts f r o m which they h a d been transferred. W a n t Restraining Order T h e UFA is applying to the Supreme Court for a n order t o r e s t r a i n t h e Fire Commissioner f r o m enforcing the "gag" rule which its attorney, David Savage, contends is "arbitrary, unreasonable, capricious and unconstitutional, a n d therefore illegal a n d void." I n t h e court papers, the UFA traces t h e course of its dispute with t h e D e p a r t m e n t since 1942. T h e papers show how t h e firemen volunteered for extra work of 24 hour in 20 d a ^ T h e n on May 1, 1943, t h e extra work was reduced to 16 hours. But when Mayor L a G u a r d i a announced t h e Firemens' bonus of $420 in December 1943, h e wanted to restore t h e 24 hours extra d u t y each 20 days. During t h e long court battle over t h e bonus-overtime question, both the Mayor a n d t h e Fire Commissioner m a d e m a n y s t a t e ments to t h e press and over t h e air—all giving t h e a d m i n i s t r a tion's side of t h e m a t t e r a n d accusing firemen of everything f r o m lack of patriotism to mob rule. Finally, when t h e Lieutenants' Association of t h e Fire D e p a r t ment, in April a n d May, 1944, came to t h e defense of t h e uniformed men, t h e spokesmen were h a n d e d changes of assignment which gave t h e m t h e longer workweek, and very long travel f r o m their homes to their posts. A.C.L.U. Steps In The powerful Civil Liberties Union h a s stepped in on t h e side of the firemen. At a conference between Fire Commissioner Walsh a n d other d e p a r t m e n t officials and Roger Baldwin, National Secretary of the AjC.L.U., the d e p a r t m e n t m a d e its s t a n d clear. Mr. Baldwin wanted to discuss t h e civil rights aspect of t h e t r a n s f e r s of the six men. T h e Commissioner ignored t h a t angle and said t h a t t h e men h a d been disciplined for making false statements; and t h a t h e h a d decided t h a t the statements were false. Mr. Baldwin suggested t h a t if Firemen's Wives Organize On City-Wide Basis Fire Commissioner Patrick Walsh figures that his 41 years In the NYC Fire Department make him a judge of what a city fireman should or shouldn't si*/. But members of the force are asking the courts to decldo. Commissioner Walsh m a d e it clear to the men t h a t they were free to make " t r u e " s t a t e m e n t s t h a t might help. Mr. Walsh didn't like t h a t idea either. He also pointed out t h a t Commissioner Walsh was setting himself up as judge of what is a n d w h a t isn't true. As a solution, Mr. Baldwin suggested t h a t in a case where a f i r e m a n is being accused of m a k ing u n t r u e public statements, t h a t h e be given a choice of taking his b a n i s h m e n t t o t h e sticks, or facing a d e p a r t m e n t a l trial t o determine whether his s t a t e m e n t s were really false. Again, Walsh "no like." This time his objection was t h a t if t h e f i r e m a n was found guilty a t a d e p a r t m e n t a l trial, he would face severe penalties, including loss of promotional opportunities. Didn't W a n t to Change About Crane and t h e other m e n who h a d been penalized, Mr. Baldwin asked t h a t they be given a chance to accept their present rustic assignment (admitting t h a t they were in error), or have a chance to clear themselves at a d e p a r t m e n t a l trial. But t h e Commissioner, with 41 years in t h e Fire D e p a r t m e n t , apparently didn't like t h e ifiea of changing things around because of something called civil liberties. T h e Fire Lieutenants have already apologized for w h a t they said. O n July 14, t h e A.C.L.U. sent t h e commissioner a letter incorporating their suggestions, b u t Walsh h a s n ' t bothered to a n swer it.

Representatives of t h e Brooklyn unit of t h e Firemen's Wives a n d Frends met last week with representatives of t h e Firemen's Wives and Sympathizers of Rockway, and with members of a Bronx unit. T h e various groups a m a l g a m a t ed into a single organization, t e n tatively known as " T h e Firemen's Wives a n d Friends of Greater New York." I n so combining, they pledged to carry into effect t h e injunction, " a n i n j u r y to one is the concern of all." T h e amalgamation achieves centralization a n d unanimity of action so essential in securing speedy a d j u s t m e n t s or satisfactory settlements upon which hinge t h e welfare of their families. Issues Stated T h e pressing issues were restated, namely, adequate compensation for additional work; elimination of t h e gag rule imposed upon firemen; and t h e reduction of t h e 84 hour work week to t h e minimum commensurate with public safety, together with t h e elimination of t h e "24 h o u r " tour of duty. Stress was laid upon the need for continued efforts in order t o a d j u s t a n d correct other less pressing problems, but no less i m p o r t a n t ones, such as pension i n equities, disability manipulations, recognition of occupational diseases a n d disorders, etc. On t h e agenda were plans for a city wide conference. T h e convention will publicly present those issues of personal and civic concern requiring a d j u s t m e n t or correction for t h e benefit of t h e Firemen, their families and t h e community. Women desiring i n f o r m a t i o n may address inquiries to Mrs. Florence Graetz, 800 Greenwood Ave., Brooklyn; Mrs. Dolores G. Mott, 2325 Ocean Ave., Brooklyn; or Mrs. Belle Freid, 462 Beacji 67th St., Arverne, Queens. Housing Workers Get Promotions A small group of employees of the NYC D e p a r t m e n t of Housing and Buildings were added last week to t h e list of municipal workers who received promotions "effective July 1, 1944." They are: Clerks: Harry Rosenthal, Robert M. Welsh and Gertrude Edzant at $1,440; Gerald Kadien at $1,320; Philip Tesser at $1,201. S t e n o g r a phers: Dorothy E.

At this writing, five fire lieutenants who spoke up are also exiled, although it seems they're making peace with the Commissioner. What point is served by the administration in keeping these men banished? The theory of gag-rule-and-punishment doesn't sit well with the people, and Commissioner Patrick Walsh surely accomplished nothing by giving Crane the boot. So long as the young fireman remains in Staten Island, he represents a festering sore that mars the relationship between meninand the department. A mistake wasthe made exiling Crane and the others. The decent thing to do is to return them to their former posts. And without inflicting upon them the ignominy of apologizing for something they said and which they sincerely believe. And that reminds us: There has been no decision in the case of Samuel March, the subway man with the good record who was suspended after he had been found 4-F by the induction center. Why isn't March entitled to a speedy decision? It's been three months since his trial was held. Officials of the Board of Transportation give no satisfactory answer when asked why the long wait? Is some finagling going on that should not be going on? Why Is the State Salary Board Delaying? ND still the State Salary Standardization Board does nothing! L That Board, set up by law to hear salary appeals of New York State employees, carefully listened to 40 groups of them two months ago. The Board has all the facts. The Board knows of the need for revising salary schedules. The Board has the power to act. The money for adjustment of pay is available. But the Board has done nothing. Why? If Dr. Newton J. T. Bigelow, head of the Board, has a good reason for the delay, the State's employees are entitled to know what that reason is. If the Board fears to act because of administration pressure on it, that too i£ something the employees are entitled to know. letters t u r n i n g aside f r o m t h e i r n o r m a l business p u r s u i t s to devote t h e m selves wholeheartedly to t h e maze Sirs: I work f o r t h e Dept. of of vexatious problems forced u p o n S a n i t a t i o n a n d w h e n W e d n e s d a y g o v e r n m e n t by a world a t war. comes a r o u n d every week t h e r e ' s However, I believe t h a t t h e r e is a feeling a m o n g t h e m e n w h i c h a way out of t h i s dilemma. words c a n n o t express.

Of course, t h e present cost of living is higher, or well over $1,600. Women's wages a r e notoriously lower t h a n m e n ' s earnings, a l t h o u g h their living costs are h i g h e r .

However, m a n y distinctive titles have been set u p to include only women's jobs, a n d these are o f t e n paid a t r a t e s f a r below t h e r a t e s paid m e n in very similar positions. W o m e n Parole Agents a r e paid lower r a t e s t h a n Parole Officers <men).

Nurses, housekeepers, technicians, dental hygienists a n d nearly all t h e jobs in which women excel and t h e r e f o r e f a r o u t n u m b e r t h e m e n employed in these positions have low salary levels. Revision Needed A FAIR APPLICATION of t h e principle of "no sex discriminat i o n " embodied in t h e Todd Law requires a n immediate revision of salaries for the entire women's services.

Employing t h e definition of a " S t a t e officer" a n d of a "local o f ficer" as contained i n t h e Public Officers Law, t h e A t t o r n e y - G e n eral came to t h e following conclusions: "1.

"'ultmin kJISfJliUI T h e Federal Social Security Board h a s opened a recruiting o f fice in New York City to hire 400 men and women without business experience for special training f o r trainee jobs in Baltimore. Mrs. Von Schultz is now at t h e United States Employment Office, 10 East 40th Street, 10th floor, and she is interviewing and hiring applicants on t h e spot, a f t e r a short aptitude test. The starting r a t e of pay is $1,560 a year—including overtime for a 48-hour week, for the following types of work: Machine operator, card punch operator, typist and under-clerk. There are opportunities for a d vancement to field assistant, s u pervisor and other positions. From the post-war employment point of view (as explained in last week's LEADER), these jobs should offer a good opportunity for permanent employment. Both the Republican and Democratic platforms call for expansion of the Social Security system. Long Island Home Sites Many civil employees who have been hoping for a little place in the country where they might spend their vacations and live a f t e r retirement now have a chance to fulfil t h a t desire. A sportsman's paradise on Long Island's largest lake has been divided into little estates a t prices within the range of a public worker's pocketbook. T h e site is about an hour's ride from t h e City, and within easy reach of schools, stores, churches and transportation. The realtors who are developing this large tract into a new community of small estates are offering free transportation f r o m New York City to the lake. To take advantage of this offer you can call in person at t h e o f fice of Long Island Acres, Suite 806, 500 F i f t h Avenue, or phone CHickering 4-1408. For quick service, tell them you read about it in The LEADER.

Employees Human Too, Convention Is Reminded Seen and Heard In Yet Agency CHICAGO—Representatives from Federal employee unions appeared before the Democratic National Convention and appealed for higher pay rates and better working conditions for government workers. James B. Burncs, president of the American Federation of Government employees presented the following program: 1. Remove existing discrimination against Government employees by paying them actual time and a half for overtime, as other workers are paid, instead of under a formula t h a t gives them only a little more t h a n straight time. 2. Recognize seniority when making reductions in force so t h a t employees who have given long and f a i t h f u l service to their country may have reasonable protection against arbitrary dismissal. 3. I n the post-war period Government should set an example t o the country by reducing the work-week to 35 hours. 4. Establishment of a comprehensive health program in the Government service for emergency aid and health education. 5. Government should assume the role of a model employer to set an example of economic stability and harmonious labor relations for industry. - 6. Continue to extend application of- the Classification Act to the field service and a strict adherence to the merit-system principle in the Civil Service.

The request was made in a formal statement which Eleanor Nelson, national secretary-treasurer, submitted to Rep. John W. McCormack (D„ Mass.), platform committee chairman. "The present hardships and penalties suffered by Federal workers who have had no assistance in meeting the rising cost of living* has worked a serious impediment to the efficient functioning of a wartime government," her statement said. "Full time and a half for overtime would fall short of meeting the current problems faced by Government workers whose living costs have rise enormously since the start of the war. And it would also fail to meet the needs of the reconversion period when hours may be reduced, but when living costs will undoubtedly remain abnormally high." she said. Luther Stewart, President of the National Federation of Federal Employees, also appeared before the resolution's committee of the convention. Vets Confer On Government Jobs Acting Commanders Robert I. Queen and Milton Salzberg of the GI Vets, a non-political World War II organization of former servicemen or women, irrespective of race, color, or creed, a n nounced today the setting up of a Legal Advice Service headed by Counselor Leonard J.

Foreign Trade Opportunities will exist for those with occupational training in accounting, credits, marketing, etc. Most opportunities will be abroad. Foreign languages very helpful.
