N Y C Retirement
System: How It Works
B y R a l p h L. V a n N a m e
Secretary, New York City Employees Retirement System
Price Five Cents
Every regular New York City
employee makes a
contribution
towards his retirement fund each
payday.
But judging from
numerous letters which have come
to The LEADER, most City employees are not familiar with the
workings
of the pension
fund.
Ralph L. Van Name,
Secretary
of the NYC Bureau of Retirement
and Pensions, has prepared a nontechnical explanation
of the Retirement System, showing how it
works, how the City makes its
contributions, what happens to the
money and how the employee is
protected.
This is MUST reading
for every New York City employee.
The Police, Fire Departments
and
the Board of Education have their
own pension systems; but they all
operate similarly.

What Every Federal Employee
Should Know About His Job-Future
By CHARLES SULLIVAN
WASHINGTON—Here are the
all-important reduction in force
regulations just issued by the U.
S. Civil Service Commission. They
tell you just how the axe is going
to fall when, the war is over.
T h j s is the order in which FederaFemployees will be fired when
the time comes to get government
back on a peace-time basis:
1. Recalled persons who retired before the war and persons
kept beyond the involuntary retirement age.
2. Temporary employees with
appointments limited to one year
or less and employees whose appointments are on a "when actually employed basis."
3. War service
appointments
both with jobs under and excepted
from classified service, and those
serving temporary or trial periods.
Tii's is called the "transitory"
group.
And the last to go:
4. Career employees.
The principles fallowed by the
Commission in making the regulations give priority in keeping
jobs to the retention rights of
career employees, veterans preference, efficiency, and seniority.
What's a Career Employee?
Career employees are defined as
"those employees with jobs in the
classified service with permanent
status, and employees who have
jobs which are excepted by law
from the classified service, but
who have a maximum permanency
of tenure attainable in their respective agencies.
As a result of the existence of
the Starnes-Scrugham Veterans
preference act, recently passed, the
new regulations include all employees in the Federal executive
civil service. Before the Act only
persons with jobs in the classified
(competitive) service were affected by reduction in force.
No Cut in Sight
With the issuance of the regulations comes t h e warning to Federal employees t h a t no cut in
forces is as yet in sight. The Commission says the regulations were
issued at this time to fully acquaint agencies with the rules and
not because any reduction is im-
minent. The Commission makes
a special appeal for all workers to
stay on the job.
I n making any reduction when
the time arrives, persons will be
competing only with those in the
same occupational groups,-such as
clerks with clerks and accountants
with accountants.
I n the first two groups above,
workers without veteran preference must go before those with
veteran preference serving under
similar types of appointment.
Within the non-veteran and veteran groups, less efficient employees must go first. When everything else is equal the length of
service will decide who stays.
When necessary cuts have taken

Organization
The New York City Employees'
Retirement System is a municipal corporation including in its
membership 97,000 of the City's
190,000 employees. The City's
Board of Estimate is the legal
head of the system and its retiring Board. The eight members
of the Board of Estimate are its
trustees. The Comptroller of the
City, one of the eight Board m e m bers, is the legal custodian of the
Fund. Because of the headship
of the Board of Estimate, the
New York City Employees' Retirement System functions as a bureau of the Board. The Secretary
and Actuary of the Retirement
System are appointed by the
Board of Estimate under the provisions of the Civil Service Law.
Under the Charter, t h e Secretary
is granted all the legal powers of
a department head in respect to
organization of his bureau and
the officers and employees thereof. There is a Medical Board of
three members, one appointed by
the Board of Estimate, one by the
Commissioner of Hospitals; the
third is the Chief Medical O f ficer of the Civil Service Commission. This Medical Board conducts and passes upon all medical examinations incident to applications for ordinary and accident disability retirement and accidental death, and is the final
judge of the facts developed in
investigation of disability claims.
Its decision as to the sufficiency
of claim for disability retirement
is final and cannot be overridden by the Board of Estimate.
Benefits and operating costs are
provided by joint and approximately equal contributions of the
City and the 97,000 members.
Scope
The business of the New York
City Employees' Retirement System is:
1. To provide old age income
for its members.
2. To provide disability income
throughout incapacity for work
resulting from ordinary and accidental disability.
3. To provide dependents h a l f pay pension for the surviving
wife, children under 18 or dependent parents, on accidental death.
4. To provide unemployment income to r employees separated
from service without fa "t or delinquency, according to length of
service and age on separation.
5. To provide E cash death ben(Continued on Page 16)

WASHINGTON — T h e
United
Federal Workers of America is
taking an appeal to the Supreme
Court from the decision rendered
by the U. S. District Court, which
upheld the constitutionality of the
Hatch Act.
Officials of the union stated
t h a t "the court-decision laid the
basis for a successful Supreme
Court appeal." Eleanor Nelson,
secretary-treasurer, stated t h a t
"the District Court h a d rejected
the claims made by the Department of Justice t h a t there was
no basis for a suit by federal
workers against the Hatch Act,
and t h a t the Civil Service Commission was not t h e proper
agency to be sued. On both of
these issues, the Court upheld
t h e contentions of the United
Federal Workers of America."
In answer to t h e Court's decision t h a t the Hatch ACt is a restriction against political activity
imposed on federal workers in
return for their security from the
spoil's system, Miss Nelson said:
"There can be no greater guarantee for continued strengthening of the merit system t h a n a n
active and intelligent body of federal employees who exercises
their rights and duties as individual citizens in the same way
as the rest of the people in the
country."
The UJP.W.A.'s suit was heard
in District Court J u n e 29th by a
three judge tribunal consisting of
Chief Justice D. Lawrence Groner
and Justices Jennings Bailey
and James W. Morris.
Reduction-in-force regulations
now apply for the first time to
all employees in the Federal executive civil service. I n the past,
they applied only to incumbents
of positions in the classified
(competitive) service (positions
subject to the provisions of the
Civil Service Act). Extension of
their scope is required by the
Veterans' Preference Act of 1944,
which provides t h a t "In any reduction in personnel in any civilian service of any Federal agency,
competing employees shall be released in accordance with Civil
Service Commission regulations
which shall give due effect to
tenure of employment, military
preference, length of service, and
efficiency ratings."
What It Means
According to the Commission,
"reduction in force" means the
involuntary separation from the
rolls of an agency, or furlough
in excess of 90 days, of one or
more employees in order to reduce personnel.
Reductions in force are made
for such reasons as a decrease in
appropriations, decrease in work,
completion of a project, setting
of personnel "ceilings," and reorganization
and merging of
agencies. They are also made
for t h e purpose of making positions available for former employees,
particularly
veterans,
with established
reemployment
rights.
You Won't Loose Job Quick
T h e Commission explained that
issuance of the new regulations
does not mean that demobilization of Federal employees, incident to termination of the war,
is believed to be imminent, and
advised employees against seeking other jobs in order to avoid
being "caught" in a reduction in
force.
"The public interest requires
that every Government employee
stick to his job as long as he is
needed," the Commission said.
"Where reductions in force have
to be made, due notice will be
given, and effected employees
will be given help in getting other
jobs in the Federal Government
or in private industry."
The new regulations contain
detailed and explicit instructions
as to the manner in which employees shall be selected for separation or furlough in a reduction
in force. The Commission said
that in formulating them the
guiding principle was the according of just weight to these factors: (1) retention rights of
"career" employees; (2) .veteran
preference; (3) efficiency; and
(4) seniority.
Career-Employee Group
The
career-employee
group,
the last of four m a j o r groups to
be reached in a reduction in
force, consists of t h e following:
(1) Employees who occupy positions which are in the classified
(competitive) service and who
have a classified (competitive)
civil-service status, except those
who are serving under appointments limited to 1 year or less,
and (2) employees who occupy
positions which are excepted
from the classified (competitive)
service and who have a maximum
permanency of tenure attainable
in their respective agencies (employees whose periods of tenure
are limited to 1 year or less, or

How It's Done
When officials of an agency
find t h a t a reduction in force is
necessary, they must, as a preliminary step, determine the organizational unit _ for example, an
entire department, or a bureau
of a department—and the occupational group in which the
reduction is to be made. An occupational group consists of employees doing the same type of
work. If a reduction is to be
made in more t h a n one occupational group, each group must
be treated separately.
The next step is to categorize
the employees in a competitive
group on the basis of the types
of appointments they hold. The
categories, in the order in which
they are considered for reductionin-force purposes, are: (1) Recalled annuitants and employees
continued beyond the involuntary retirement age; (2) temporary employees—that is, employees serving under appointments limited to 1 year or less,
regardless of whether they have
a classified icompetitive) civilservice status as a result of prior
service—and employees whose appointments are on a when-actually-employed < WAE) basis; (3)
"transitory" employees; and (4)
career employees.
Employees with similar types
of appointment whose official
positions are in an occupational
group in which a reduction is to
be made are considered to be "in
competition" for
reduction-in-force purposes.

Changes
Would
Freeze Pay, Hamstring
Promotions
By FRANCIS KELLY
A threat to the financial welfare of New York City
employees was disclosed last week, when details of municipal budgetary changes proposed by the powerful
Commerce and Industry Association were made public.
This Association, which has opposed the cost-of-living increase
to City employees, outlined its proposals in a letter to Vice-Chairman Joseph T. Sharkey, of the
City Council.
The first seven of the Association's 12 proposals extend the
period for consideration of the
annual budget to allow for longer
study by the Council and the
public.
Would Freeze Employees
But the last five suggestions are
those which materially affect City
employees. In the opinion of City
officials, if adopted, these pror"j~;als would freeze many employees at their salary grades,
would require practically all increases to be approved by the City
Why It Can't Be Done
Council and the Board of Estimate, and would tie up pay increases in a morass of delay.
Here are some of the proposals
included in the Association's letter to Mr. Sharkey:
"No increase in salary shall be
made during the year except those
indicated in the budget as finally adopted."
"No provision shall be made In
the Budget for additional compensation or for the salary of any
incumbent in excess of the civil
service grade of such incumbent";
that is suggested as an amendment to the City Charter.
No "Modification"
At present, increases are grant-
A New York City fireman won a point from Fire Commissioner Patrick Walsh, but it took an act of the State
Legislature and an opinion from the Corporation Counsel
to get him back on the department rolls.
It's Major Frank A. Schaefer now.
As Or. Schaefer, secretary of
tho NYC Municipal Civil Service
Commission, he went Into military
service back In October, 1940, for
"at least one year." A former
Instructor of Latin and Greek at
Fordham University, he is serving with Military

Since his departure, two acting

He applied to the Fire Commissioner for permission to sign up
with Uncle Sam, but Walsh,
wouldn't give permission. So he
joined up anyway.
T h a t amounted to resignation
from the Fire Department.
Then the State Legislature
passed an amendment to t h e
Military Law which seemed to include the Army Transport Service, so ex-fireman Shields applied
for reinstatement.
The department asked the Corporational Counsel for an opinion,
and the City's legal division said
he should be taken back. T h a t

The Law That Saved the Job
Here is the addition to the law
which saved Fireman Shield's job:
Included under the legal definition of "military service" is:
"Service as an officer or member of the crew on or in connection with a vessel documented
under the laws of t h e United
States or a vessel owned by, c h a r tered to, or operated by or for the
account or use of t h e United
States, as an enrolee in the United

be prescribed by or under the laws
of the United States, any period
awaiting assignment to such service and any period of education or
training for such service in any
school or institution under the
jurisdiction of the United States
government."

Concerning State
Pay
Adjustments
T
ONLY ACTION CAN IMPRESS THEM
We are dealing here with a m a t t e r involving the
normal application of a law of t h e State, approved in 1937
by a Republican Assembly and a Democratic Senate. Employees cannot at this late d a t e well be impressed by
Standardization Board or Budget "studies." Nor can they
be expected to shout in elation over Rule VIII-C, issued by
the Civil Service Commission, which by-passes present appeal and decision machinery. Nor can they grow
maudlin with excitement over proposals to give "flexibility" to the sound 1937 career service law. Employees
are literally amazed and confounded at the length to
which present procedures of State agencies dealing with
personnel problems are limiting and delaying institutional
salary adjustments. Employees are becoming ever more
impatient of decisions and lack of decisions which result
ultimately in the same t h i n g — t h e i r salaries remaining unimproved after, in some cases, more than 20 years of neglect.
Who is being fooled by this petty s t r a t e g y ? W e
wonder. .

HE recent official decisions of the State Salary Standardization Board, r e f e r r i n g to laundry and physical
t h e r a p y employees, ignore the request of the workers
t h a t pay increases be made effective immediately instead
of April 1, 1945.
The Board, the State Budget Bureau, the Civil Service
Commission, and the Mental Hygiene D e p a r t m e n t must
know t h a t salary reallocation may, under the lump-sum
budget, be made legally effective retroactively or at t h e
time clcisions are m a d e — t h e y needn't wait upon the beginning of the fiscal year 1945. And they should know
how badly the institutional service needs these salary adjustments.
Employees in the State's institutions have been extending themselves to the utmost in caring for patients.
They've done it under a heavy work-load made heavier
by the inability of the State to recruit new employees. And
they've been doing the job under conditions which iind
the institutions undermanned by the thousands.
Moreover, t h e employees haven't asked hugely spiraling wage increases. They haven't even asked f o r adjustments they might have d e m a n d e d to bring their pay up to
wartime levels. It may be said t h a t their requests have
been comparatively moderate.

I F YOU HAVE ever considered
t a k i n g a leave of absence f r o m
your competitive S t a t e job, you
h a v e undoubtedly been troubled
by several questions.
Am I entitled to a leave of
absence?
When must I return?
What
about
my
seniority
rights?
Will I loose a n y salary increments?
T h e a n s w e r s to these questions
o f t e n decide w h e t h e r you apply
f o r t h e leave or n o t .
Leaves of Absence Discretionary
W h e t h e r or n o t you get a leave
of absence depends, f i r s t of all, on
your a p p o i n t i n g officer. If h e
t u r n s you down, t h a t ' s t h e end
of it. T h e r e is n o appeal. By its
very n a t u r e a leave of absence
m u s t be discretionary with your
a p p o i n t i n g officer. T h e
leave,
once g r a n t e d , is almost like a
c o n t r a c t . T h e a p p o i n t i n g officer
agrees to h o l d your job open for
you a n d promises t o r e i n s t a t e
you on your r e t u r n .
Duration of Leaves
Leaves of . absence m a y
be
g r a n t e d f o r a fixed period, s u c h
a s t h r e e m o n t h s , six m o n t h s ,
n i n e m o n t h s or a year, or m a y be
f o r a n indefinite period n o t e x ceeding one year.
If you get a definite t h r e e
m o n t h s leave, you m u s t r e t u r n
w h e n t h e t h r e e m o n t h s a r e up,
unless your a p p o i n t i n g officer
g r a n t s you a n extension. T h i s
a d d i t i o n a l leave m u s t n o t e x t e n d
your t o t a l leave of absence b e yond a y e a r . If you do n o t get
a n extension a n d fail to show
u p for work a t t h e e n d of your
leave, you a r e A. W . O. L. a n d
m a y be removed f r o m your position or otherwise disciplined.
If your leave of absence is f o r
a n indefinite period (e. g., u n t i l
you get over a serious illness)
t h e n you m u s t r e t u r n w i t h i n o n e
y e a r of t h e c o m m e n c e m e n t of
t h e leave. Otherwise, you will be
deemed t o h a v e resigned on t h e
d a t e w h e n your leave b e g a n .
T h e only t y p e of discretionary
leave of absence w h i c h does n o t
require t h a t you r e p o r t back f o r
work w i t h i n one y e a r is a leave
of absence g r a n t e d u n d e r
the
S t a t e Civil Service R u l e X V I
( l b ) . T h i s leave, which requires
t h e consent of t h e B u d g e t Direct o r a s well a s of your a p p o i n t i n g
officer, is g r a n t e d f o r t h e p u r pose of e n g a g i n g in w a r work
or i n F e d e r a l g o v e r n m e n t service,
a n d is renewable e a c h y e a r on
like consent w i t h o u t requiring you
t o r e p o r t back f o r work between
leaves. T h i s type of leave, h o w ever, c a n n o t extend beyond six
m o n t h s a f t e r t h e t e r m i n a t i o n of
t h e war.
Affect of Resignation During
Leave
Persons who resign f r o m service
m a y be r e i n s t a t e d within one year
of absence, you m u s t r e t u r n w i t h in one year. If you should s u b mit your resignation before your
year's leave of absence is up, it
will not have t h e effect of giving
you a n e x t r a year within which
to obtain r e i n s t a t e m e n t . For example, if you took a leave of
absence on J u l y 1, 1943, you
would be required to r e t u r n by
J u n e 30, 1944. If you h a d r e signed on J a n u a r y 1, 1944, you
would still h a v e to r e t u r n by
J u n e 30. 1944, r a t h e r t h a n by
December 31, 1944. You are a l lowed only one year's c o n t i n u o u s
s e p a r a t i o n f r o m t h e service—including b o t h the time s p e n t on a
leave of absence a n d t h e time
out on resignation.
Effect on Seniority Rights
Seniority, a p a r t f r o m its effect
on your pension rights, plays a n
important
p a r t in p r o m o t i o n s
a n d lay-offs.
I n promotion e x a m i n a t i o n s a
r a t i n g is given e a c h c a n d i d a t e
based on his t o t a l continuous s t a t e
service. T i m e spent on a leave
of absence is deducted, i n a s m u c h
as only actual work on t h e job
is considered.
I n figuring seniority for l a y offs, however, t i m e s p e n t on a
leave of absence followed by r e i n s t a t e m e n t is n o t d e d u c t e d . I n
lay-offs, t h e i m p o r t a n t t h i n g is
t h e d a t e of original a p p o i n t m e n t
in t h e service, provided service
h a s been continuous since t h e n .
T h e first appointed is t h e last
t o go. I n a s m u c h a s a leave of
absence does n o t b r e a k t h e c o n t i n u i t y of service it is t r e a t e d a s
service on t h e job.
In
this
respect, a resignation followed by
r e i n s t a t e m e n t is entirely d i f f e r e n t
f r o m a leave of absence. A resign a t i o n is considered a n absolute
b r e a k in service. Even w h e r e t h e
resignation is followed by r e i n s t a t e m e n t , seniority m u s t t h e r e a f t e r be figured f r o m t h e d a t e of
reinstatement rather than from
t h e d a t e or original a p p o i n t m e n t .
Effect on Increment Rights
If you occupy a F e l d - H a m i l t o n
position a n d a r e n o t already a t
t h e m a x i m u m of your grade, you
m a y lose a n i n c r e m e n t if you
t a k e a leave of absence. If you a r e
out on leave of absence for six
m o n t h s or m o r e between
the
period f r o m April 1 to M r r c i i 31,
you a r e n o t eligible for a n i n c r e m e n t on t h e following April
1. If your leave is f o r le°s t h a n

SEEN A N D HEARD I N VET A G E N C Y
Vet Agency Sets Up Unit to
Ideas Sought to Improve
Charles Reichert, Manager of the Veteran Administration Office in New York City, told a LEADER reporter
he is desirous of overcoming the difficulties existing between employees and management in his agency. He admits Ireely that such difficulties as The LEADER has written about are present, but says that the causes are not
always easy to find nor, once found, to eradicate.
He has taken a m a j o r step,
however, in the direction of improving the present situation. He
proposed to Washington headquarters that an employee relations unit be set up. This unit
would serve as a clearing house
for grievances, discipline, negotiation.
Last week, Washington gave
its blessing to the suggestion.
Machinery is already being set up.
Functions of New Unit
As outlined by Washington, the
new unit will consist of 2 employees relations officers, 3 clerks
and 1 stenographer. Any employee
with a complaint or a grievance
will have the right to present his
case. He will not have to ask
permission of his supervisor, nor
will he have reason to fear reprisal from his superiors, if his
complaint should concern his
supervisor.
Specific functions of the new
unit will be these:
1. Maintaining and controlling
procedures for handling emploree
grievances.
2. Supervising employee welfare, relief housing, and recreation.
3. Personnel counselling.
4. Interviews with employees
both upon entering and upon
leaving the agency.
5. Supervision of medical examinations.
6. Caring for the safety of e m ployees.
To Encourage Appeals
In addition, The LEADER h a s
been informed, a m e m o r a n d u m
will be issued, probably
this
week, encouraging employees t o
take appeals from efficiency r a t ings if they honestly feel those
ratings are not in accord with
the facts.
In general, Mr. Reichert's idea
is to get employees to t a l k out
their complaints and grievances
freely and openly. If t h e r e is
substance to these complaints,
"something will be done about
them," he says.
The Supervision Problem
The frank-speaking M a n a g e *
also is aware of that supervision
in the offices under his a d m i n i s tration can be improved. H e is
willing to listen to suggestions,
and in fact has only recently
received a list of suggestions f r o m
Federal Civil Service a n d W a r
Manpower officials. He points out,
however, t h a t his agency h a s
mushroomed vastly, t h a t opportunities for promotion have been
provided to thousands of e m -

(Continued from Page 1)
all the persons in the first two
groups, only then do transitory
(which includes war service jobs)
and career personnel start getting
the axe.
Order of selection for release is
the same in the last two groups
as in the first two, with the exception t h a t the efficiency rating
is considered. A system of "reduction credits" is figured on a
basis of length of service and efficiency rating.
Reduction Credits
Reduction credits are computed by giving a numerical value
of 80 for "good," 88 for "very
good," ana 96 for "excellent." One
credit is added for each full year
of service including military service. No credits are given for a
"fair," but persons with this rating
receive the same credit for length
of service as those with higher
ratings.
According to the regulations,
"where no approved efficiency
rating system is used, or where
the system used does not provide
evaluations comparable to commission-approved systems the order of reduction within a transitory or career category is as follows: First employees without veteran preference, in ascending order of length of service; then employees with veteran preference, in
ascending order of length of service."
According to the regulations the
right to appeal from reduction in
force action is restricted to career
and transitory employees, and to
employees who feel that their
rights under veteran preference
laws have been violated.
Appeals must be made within
10 days.
The rules give maximum protection to the career employee
group. The following rule is the
most important in that respect:
"Whenever it is finally determined in a reduction in force that
a career employee reached for action is to be separated from the
rolls or furloughed in excess of 90
days, and there is within the department at the same geographical location a position not occupied by a career employee which
the career employee so reached is
qualified to fill, the career employee so reachd shall be transferred or assigned to such position."
It is also stated in the regulations that persons who were trans-
ferred or promoted into a war service job must be returned t o a
a position at the same geographical location wherever possible
with seniority, status, a n d pay at
least equal to the former job before being subjected to competition for reduction.
One of the most important f a c tors in a reduction procedure is
the determination of the area of
competition. The area is set u p
in the rules as a "governmental
entity" defined as follows:
"Governmental entity m e a n s an
executive department, a bureau of
an executive department, a p a r ent organization, a constituent
agency, an independent establishment, an entire field installation,
an entire regional office, an e n tire field station, a d e p a r t m e n t of
the municipal government of the
District of Columbia, or any other
such organization or separate governmental agency of the Federal
Government created by act of
Congress or executive order."
If career or transitory e m ployees are involved in a p a r t i c ular reduction, no smaller a r e a
can be used without t h e prior
approval of the commission. Approval for the use of a smaller
area will be given only if t h e
area is large enough (1) to p r e vent the loss of highly efficient
employees, (2) to allow t r u e competition to exist, and (3) to p e r mit the retention of p e r m a n e n t
employees and those entitled t o
veteran preference.
30 Days Notice
Thirty days rotice, or more is
required for any cut. Wherever
possible, there shall be 30 days
notice before active duty stops.
Where conditions do not p e r m i t
30 days notice before active duty
stops, an employee may be placed
in a leave status, \mt he m a y not
be separated from the rolls before
the end of the 30 days.
Included in the regulations is
a priority guide which shows the
re-employment rights of r e t u r n i n g
veterans and members of t h e Merchant Marine, and of r e t u r n i n g
transferees. Rights of these returning employees may conflict
with each other. The guide, designed to resolve these conflicts
is set forth by the conunission a n d
gives the following priority:
1. Career employees with s t a t u tory restoration, re-employment,
or retention rights.
2. Transitory employees (not inI eluding war-service appointees) |

As Correction Officer Frederick
Mathesie tells t h e s t o r y :
" W h e n Mr. K e r n was Civil

greatly bothering t h e commissioners of t h e two d e p a r t m e n t s

t h e duties were dissimilar, t h e
e x a m i n a t i o n s dissimilar, a n d t h e
qualifications f o r the jobs likewise dissimilar. (This was obvious
right f r o m t h e s t a r t . )
"Recently w h e n I c o m m u n i c a t ed with t h e Commissioner of Civil
Service (Mrs. E s t h e r Bromley)

w h e t h e r or not a t r a n s f e r could
be effected, she tersely told m e
it was n o t "her f u n c t i o n t o do

Now M r . M a t h i e s e doesn't know
where to t u r n . He'd still like to
get away, but c a n ' t figure out how
to do it. He knows t h a t h e c a n ' t
