MAKE THE BONUS PERMANENT
By JEROME YALE
Mayor LaGuardia and the NYC Board of Estimate
last week were asked to extend the cost-of-living bonus to
all City employees earning up to $4,999.99 a year, and
- then to make the bonus a permanent increase,
T h i s action was t a k e n by t h e
.•City Council, which passed a resoJution asking t h e change. T h e
Council message was deeply critical
of the m a n n e r in which t h e bonus
h a d originally been distributed,
..when some agencies which didn't
"play ball" with t h e Mayor were
• excluded.
. ' "Some d e p a r t m e n t s a n d various
employees have been arbitrarily
refused and have not been granted
.t
~~
such bonus, despite the f a c t t h a t
their duties have been heavier
a n d they are at least as deserving
as those who have been granted
the bonus," said t h e Council.
No Additional Expense
G r a n t i n g a p e r m a n e n t Increase
would involve no additional expense, added t h e Coimcil, a n d
would contribute to t h e peace of
inind and f u t u r e welfare of t h e
City employees.
"The City of New York c a n ill
a f f o r d to continue to be pictured
as a n employer who practices u n fair. discrimination In t h e p a y m e n t of wages, or who dangles
over t h e head of each employee
t h e a n n u a l t h r e a t of bonus w i t h drawal," said the resolution, which
was jointly introduced by Councilm a n Louis Cohen, head of t h e
Council Finance Committee a n d
V i c e - c h a i r m a n Joseph T. S h a r key.
May Be Later
Opinion around City Hall was
t h a t the Mayor and the Board of
Estimate would n o t immediately
follow the suggestion of the Council resolution, but t h a t the p e r m a n e n t increase might come through
in the f u t u r e .
One suggestion was t h a t Mayor
LaGuardia might wait until just
before t h e next Mayoral election,
a n d then come through with t h e
increase; in any event, it all seems
to depend on the f r o n t m a n in
City Hall, as he pretty well controls t h e m a j o r i t y votes of t h e
Estimate Board members.
Sen. Halpern Urges State Budget Head
Not to Tamper Witli Field-Hamilton Law
State Senator Seymour Halpern (Republican, Queens),
chaii'man of the Senate Civil Service Committee, this week
came out for higher salary allocations to State employees,
effective immediately; and for preservation of the FeldHamilton career law.
I n a letter to Budget Director
J o h n E. Burton, Mr. Halpern, who
had been instrumental in publicizing evil conditions in t h e State's
m e n t a l hygiene institutioixs, said;
write you only because I
deeply feel t h e urgency of both
these problems—the necessity of
Affirmative action on salary, a n d
ttie necessity of delaying action
J
on changing the Feld-Hamilton
law."
He said he feitt t h a t operations
of t h e Feld-Hamilton law had been
s m o o t h , - a n d t h a t it should not
now be tampered with.
Senator Halpern's letter follows in full:
"Dear Mr. B u r t o n :
"The investigation of Creedmoor S t a t e Hospital a n d t h e resultant probe of the State's Men-
tal Hygiene D e p a r t m e n t revealed
some startling a n d unbelievable
facts, as you know.
The Creedmoor Probe
" I a m proud of t h e role I played
in instigating t h e clean-up. I was
pleased witli Governor Dewey's
immediate and decisive action
when I brought to his attention
the intolerable conditions, I witnessed duiing my probe of t h e
hospital. T h e Moreland Commission conducted a n excellent investigation. Yes, there was action
and plenty of it. T h e superintendent resigned, t h e Commissioner of
Mental Hygiene quit under fire.
The S t a t e entered upon a new era
of enlighteed t r e a t m e n t in the
Mental Hygiene field.
"A new commissioner of mental
hygiene was appointed—an expert
in hospital administration. Creedmoor got a new chief in t h e person of Dr. H a r r y A. L a B u r t — a n
experienced, understanding, able
administrator.
"Creedmoor prospered
under
this new setup. Morale improved.

WASHINGTON—Here is w h a t is
generally believed to be t h e best
s t a t e m e n t on t h e f u t u r e of war
service appointees in t h e Federal
Service. I t is a s t a t e m e n t by Civil
Service Commissioner A r t h u r S.
Flemming.
He poses this question: " W h a t
are our prospects of continuing to
work f o r t h e United States Government?"
Here is his answer;
"No one knows what t h e size of
t h e Federal Government is going
to be a f t e r t h e cessation of hos- .
tillties in Europe, nor what It is
going to be a f t e r t h e cessation of
hostilities in t h e Pacific.
"But for a period of time following t h e cessation of hostilities
in t h e Pacific, we know t h a t t h e
problems of demobilization, t h e
post-war responsibilities of Government, a n d t h e normal operations of Government will require
t h e continued existence of m a n y
thousands of positions now filled
by war-service appointees.
Some Will Be Released
"Some war-service appointees
will be released f r o m t h e Federal
payroll because of t h e r e t u r n of
men a n d women who left other
t h a n temporary positions to enter
the Armed Forces.
" O t h e r war-service appointees
will lose their positions on t h e
Federal payroll because of t h e r e t u r n to their f o r m e r positions of .
career civilian employees who
t r a n s f e r r e d to agencies where, in
t h e j u d g m e n t of t h e Civil Service
Commission, they could m a k e a
better contribution to t h e war
program.
j
"Still other war-service appointees will lose their positions on t h e
Federal payroll because of a r e duction in t h e total personnel
strength of t h e Federal Government. These reductions will be
carried out with due regard to
efficiency, preference for veterans,a n d length of service.
"But a f t e r all of these things
h a v e happened, t h e r e will still be
war-service appointees In positions
in t h e Federal Government, both
a f t e r the cessation of hostilities In
Europe, and a f t e r t h e cessation of
hostilities In t h e Pacific.
" I n some Instances, t h e w a r service appointees who are left will
receive temporary extensions of

SOMETHING NEW! T h e .
LEADER h a s begim a new
section dealing with Public
Administration. I t Is our
plan, in extending t h e scope
of LEADER coverage, to
make this a better publication. We feel t h a t t h e
public
administrator
and
t h e employee of a governm e n t agency require more
t h a n a weekly resume of
civil service rules, regulations, lists, complaints, a n d
personnel changes. They will
be better public servants,
better governmental technicians, if they know w h a t
n e w t h i n g s a r e being
planned in their d e p a r t ments, a n d in others; if
they know wtiav new devices
a n d methods are becoming
available in transportation,
sanitation, health, police,
education, welfare, hospital,
sewage, a n d fire work.
THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION section (see pages
10 and 11) will deal with
news, plans, programs of
States, counties, cities, towns
and villages; it will present
t h e problems of some communities, a n d relate
the
solutions to problems by
other communities; it will
record new ideas by public
officials and employees a n d
by others whose work and
talents are i m p o r t a n t in
government.

Unemployment Insurance
For Federal Employees
»
By ROBERT F. WAGNER
United States Senator, State of New York
At the present time, 35 million workers in the United
States are insured under the various unemployment insurance laws of the 48 states. Machinists, shipyard workers, carpenters, clerks, typists and messengers who work
for private employers are covered under the State laws
but* the machinist, shipyard worker, carpenter, clerk,
typist or messenger who works f6r the Federal Government is not protected under the existing unemployment
insurance laws. This discrimination is unfair and unjust.
D u r i n g t h e w a r millions of
Americans patriotically went to
work f o r Unci© S a m in Navy
Yards, arsenals, m u n i t i o n plants,
a n d In t h e offices of t h e W a r Dep a r t m e n t , Navy D e p a r t m e n t , V e t e r a n s ' Administration, a n d o t h e r
d e p a r t m e n t s set u p to h e l p win
t h e w a r . If t h e s e workers h a d
t a k e n jobs in p r i v a t e industry,
t h e y would h a v e been covered
under the unemployment insura n c e laws of t h e various S t a t e s .
B u t because t h e y w e n t t o work
for the Federal Government, u n e m p l o y m e n t i n s u r a n c e protection
is denied t h e m .
Only F e d e r a l legislation c a n
correct t h i s injustice. Unemploym e n t insturance m u s t be extended
t o F e d e r a l employees, by F e d e r a l
legislation. S u c h legislation should
be enacted immediately a n d It
should provide f o r t h e p a y m e n t
of a d e q u a t e benefits.

T h e existing u n e m p l o y m e n t i n s u r a n c e laws of t h e various S t a t e s

T h e benefits w h i c h t h e y provide
average a b o u t $16 a week f o r a
period of 10 to 20 weeks. Even t h e
New York u n e m p l o y m e n t i n s u r a n c e law, w h i c h Is one of t h e b e t t e r laws in t h e country, provides
benefits of only $10 to $18 a week
f o r a period of 20 weeks. T h e
a m o u n t a n d d u r a t i o n of b e n e f i t s

No Serious Cuts Pending Despite FDR

him to make plans for the cuts.

Five NYC Employees Win
Six-Year Scholarships
Their N Y C Posts
Last week a group of 22 NYC
employees who have passed the retirement age of 70 were granted
permission to stay on the job by
the City Board of Estimate.
Each of these employees had
been certified by the head of the
apency, who stated t h a t because
of reductions on force due to
Board of Estimate action, failure
to fill vacancies of employees leaviu.T for outside work, military
leaves, resignations and deaths,
and the inability to find help because of wartime conditions, it
way necessary for the best interests of the City to retain these
employees in service.
Those who are 70 have received
their first over-age continuation
for one year, others have their extensions continued.

(/. 5. Employees Haven't
Lost Jobless Pay Fight
ELL, Congress took the George bill without the
provision calling for unemployment insurance to
Federal employees. The Senate, which had been
strong for the employees on this issue, acceded to the
Ways and Means Committee of the House, which had
been truculent against it. The Senators acquiesced only
because the remaining items in the George bill were considered important in the reconversion period, and speed
was essential.
Nevertheless, the Federal employees have not lost.
Their position is stronger than it ever has been. And their
cbances of obtaining an unemployment compensation
measure are good. It will have to be, though, as a separate bill, and not part of thejover-all George act.
So powerful was the case for the employees, that they
mustered support from such men as Bernard Baruch, Governor Warren of California, Senator Wagner of New York,
Clare Booth Luce, and even Arthur Krock, conservative
political commentator of the New York Times. The issue
thus transcends parties—for the persons represented in
this group are impoi-tant cogs in both major political
parties.
What's to be done now?
First, Federal employees and their organizations
should not let up. They must continue to pound the drums.
The movement now under way (reported in last week's
LEADER) for collaboration of the three major Federal
employee organizatibns on legislative matters, offers a
method of presenting the politicians with a solid unity
among the employees themselves. The public relations of
the situation should not be overlooked : Newspaper editors,
columnists, radio commentators should be given the facts
—and the facts add up inevitably to the necessity of passing an unemployment insurance bill for the employees.
And above all—talk back to the politicians! This is
the time of year they've got to listen!
Federal employees are close to winning for themselves what employees in private industry won years ago.
But they can only obtain this protection by continuing the
fight until the moment an unemployment insurance bill is
passed by both houses of Congress.
^
Don't give up now!

The Democratic Picture
Here's how the Democratic
political picture in New York
State sizes up a t this point:
First, with State chairman Paul
Fitzpatrick touring the State
sweating out good will, making
promises, trying to build up
party spirit, two old-timers are
doing the basic political spadework: They're Vincent Dailey
a n d Clarence Low. . . . Morale
among t h e clubhouse boys is
still down. This is n a t u r a l a f t e r
12 years of disappointment for
most of them, who didn't get
the f a t jobs they thought were
waiting for them. T h e work
these boys are Uoing a m o u n t s
to exactly zero in terms of
political effectiveness, . , . You'll
find three types of Democrats
nowadays: The laissez faire or
"lazy" type, who are sure the
election is in the bag. If it goes
their way, they'll take credit.
T h e n you'll find the idealistic
type, to whom FD is God, a n d
must win the election by virtue
of t h a t fact. These talk mostly
to themselves. And third, are
the realists, who know the election figures, and aren't afraid
of facts, whether pleasant or
ugly. The realists are also t h e
pessimists. . . . Whole sections
of the State, and of New York
City, too, which are witnessing
great Dewey zeal, haven't seen
a single Democratic Roosevelt
worker or even Roosevelt poster.
. . . The Republicans are working hard, first, because one
group wants to get rid of " t h a t
m a n in the White House"; a
second group is hungry for jobs.
The Democrats haven't got
similar driving impulses. . . .
How much off base the Democratic organizations are is evidenced by the f a c t t h a t Robert
Wagner, who has done as much
for labor as any man, failed to
get a n AFL endorsement; and,
in fact. Tom Curran, his GOP
opponent in the Senatorial race,
was able to split t h a t branch of
t h e labor movement, breaking
off the support of Longshorem a n Joe Ryan, building trades
officials, arid certain AFL firem a n groups. However, this
piece of business h a s poured a
dash of cold water on the Democrats, and may yet be enough
to spark them before they fall
completely apart. Incidentally,
Assemblyman Robert Crews was
helpful to Curran in lining u p
AFL support. . . . Another
angle: F i o r e 11 o LaGuardia,
whose support used to be worth

made it a policy to follow all t h e
notices on t h e bulletin boai'd, and
a little note which he saw posted
there last April will probably
change his whole life.
" I always had a feeling for engineering," says Herbert Coddington, "but varied reasons, including
money, kept me f r o m taking college courses and when I saw a
notice t h a t New York University
was offering City employees a
chance to win night school scholarships, I t h o u g h t I'd try for it."
"First I had to get t h e recommendation of t h e Board, t h e n I
sent NYU a copy of my high
school recoi-d, and finally I was
called in for a pretty stiff two-day
examination. I t was mostly a test
of general information, and I
thought I did well. T h e n came
the good news,, t h a t I had been
chosen as the only employee of
the Board of Transportation to
qualify for t h e six-year evening
college scholarship, worth about
$1,500."

Setting Up a State Economic Bureau
By PAUL G. TOMLINSON
Chief. Bureau of State Publicity and Infinnation
State of New Jersey
NEW JERSEY'S S t a t e D e p a r t m e n t of Economic Development
came into being on July 1. 1944.
I t was created to anticipate postwar problems a n d t o plan and coordinate t h e State's p a r t in t h e
f u t u r e economic, industrial, agricultural, social and recreational
activities of its citizens. T h e
D e p a r t m e n t consists of a Commissioner, who is in charge of the
administrative work of the organization, a n d a n Economic
Council of ten members, a policy
forming group representing industry, labor, veterans, local gove r n m e n t a n d t h e public.
Three Divisions
There are three principle subdivisions of t h e D e p a r t m e n t of
Economic Development:
The Division of Veterans' Services which includes the Bureaus
of Claims and Benefits, Veterans'
Loans a n d Veterans' Employment. T h e Bureau of Claims
concerns itself primarily in assisting veterans a n d their dependents to secure benefits f r o m
t h e Federal Government to which
bhey may be entitled, but will help
Service,
veterans to solve any kind of
problem with which they m a y be
confronted. T h e Bureau of Veterans' Loans, through a subdivision called the Veterans'
Loan Authority, guarantees, on
behalf of t h e State, 90% of loans
up to $3,000 secured by the veterans f r o m New Jersey banks for
the purpose of establishing or r e establishing themselves in a business or profession. T h e Bureau
of Veterans' Employment a d m i n isters a program of voluntary
commitments by employers and
labor organizations for their p a r ticipation in a plan of veterans
preference in private employment.
The Division of
Commerce
and Municipal Aid cooperates
with industry in the development
and administration of programs
for the improvement of business
and working conditions t h r o u g h out the State, t h e development
of technical services, a n d the " i n crease of employment opportunities and t h e encouragement of
free private enterprise."
This
Division also administers a M u n icipal Service Bureau, which op-

New Bus Heater
Of Interest
To Communities
A new idea in truck a n d bus
heaters combines t h e usual f u n c tions of cab heating and windshield defrosting, with t h e a d dition of trailer space h e a t i n g
a n d preheating of batteries, e n gine manifold a n d crankcase as
desired. T h e device should be of
interest to communities which
operate large vehicles.
T h e combustion process of vapor entraining successfully a p -
crates t h e New Jersey program
of Public Assistance. I t h a s a
Bureau of Research and S t a t i s tics; a Bureau of Economic Development charged with t h e d u t y
of making known t h e resources
and opportunities in t h e S t a t e ;
and a Bureau of State Publicity
and Information.
The Division of Planning anid
.^Engineering h a s a "master p l a n "
for t h e physical development
of the S t a t e including, a m o n g
other things, more efficient
r u r a l l a n d utilization, removal
of slum areas in cities, a n d t h e
Improvement of u r b a n living a n d
housing conditions generally. I t
is accumulating a Public Work
Reserve, which consists of a list
of plans for public work projects
to be undertaken by counties,
municipalities, school districts
a n d other State Departments a t
any f u t u r e time when the needs
and conditions are most fax'orable.
What the Department Does
T h e D e p a r t m e n t of Economic
Development is engaged in coordinating all plans for the physical development of New Jersey,
including plans f o r highways,
airpofts, parks, parkways, water
supply development, terminal a n d
h a r b o r facilities, food control,
land use, recreation areas and
forest reservations. I t will develop plans for improved t r a n s portation facilities in s u b u r b r n
residential areas; m a k e studies
of rural land utilization for r e forestation, reclamation and r e creation, summer residence and
industrial and urban expansion.
I t s program calls for t h e i n vestigation of living conditions.
Ideas for Reducing Traffic Accidents
By HAROLD F. HAMMOND
President, Institute of Trafik Egineers
ALL MOTOR VEHICLE t r a f f i c
experts agree t h a t t h e use of
streets and highways will increase tremendously in post-war
years, perhaps doubling 1941 volume by 1960. Registrations are
expected to exceed 40 million and
licensed drivers to exceed 50 million.
Community post-war t r a f f i c
problem number one, in the m a jority opinion of t h e nation's
t r a f f i c exc>erts, will be what t h e
pre-war motorist considered his
m a j o r headache—parking.
T h a t is t h e consensus of a survey just completed by t h e National Conservation Bureau, accident prevention department of
t h e Association of Casualty and
Surety Executives.
T h e Big Problems
Th/s new fluid-heat motor vehicle heater ^as found use on busses.
bulldozers, cranes, compressors, and trucks. The exchanger Is constructed of stainless steel with gas-tight eonthuous welded seams.
There are only three moving parts—motor,

automotive-type pump.
plied to a i r c r a f t heaters, is used
in the mechanism. The h e a t exchanger h a s four compartments
with "cross-over" passes between.
T h u s the f l a m e a n d hot gases
have a travel of foui- times t h e
length of the h e a t exchanger

COMPETITIVE BIDS Are Back: Competition is hotter and prices
'are lower among: strect-surfacing contractors these days as the
pressure of war work ceases, says City Engineer, Charles L. Wartelle,
jpt Seattle. Street jobs, which less than a year ago attracted only a
lone bidder, now draw from six to seven contractors as in pre-war
days. "Prices have dropped, too," he reports. "Before the war we
paid $1.38 a yard for certrain kinds of resurfacing. A year ago we
were paying $2.15 a yard. Now, with fewer military contracts being
offered, the city gets bids of $1.75 a yard. But I doubt that prices
are going to drop to pre-war levels."

Wide Posf-War Use Seen
For Aisdio-Visual
Aids
CAMDEN, N. J.—Wider use of
audio-visual methods in teaching during the post-war period
are forseen by Paul Thornton,
Educational Director of the RCA
Victor Division, Radio Corporation of America, as a result of
the progressive action now being
taken by school administrators
and teachers.
"Tlie successful use of audiovisual aids by the Army and Navy
will add emphasis to the almost
universal adoption of these aids
in the nation's school systems
a f t e r the war," Mr. T h o r n t o n
said. " T h e question i.s: Can
schools teach the G - I way?"

Highway Bill
Of Interest To
Civil Employees
WASHINGTON—Officials and
employees in S t a t e and municipal
departments devoted to public
works and roadbuilding will be
much interested in a bill approved unanimously by t h e House
R o a d s ' C o m m i t t e e . T h e bill, HR
4915, means if it should be passed, t h a t their jobs a f t e r the war
will be much more secure. T h e
measure provided $1,500,000 for
post-war road c o n s t r u c t i o n .
Under the terms of the bill, onethird of this sum would become
available for each of three successive years.
A precedent Is established by
t h e provision of the bill e a r m a r k ing f u n d s for metropolitan highways in urban areas of over 10,000 population; $125 million for
secondary and feeder roads; and
$225 million for federal aid highway systems both in and outside
cities of ten thousand or more
population.
State Must Contribute
One-half of one per cent of the
funds apportioned to any state
may be used for plans, surveys,
engineering and economic research. All federal contributions
are contingent upon state participaUon ot 40 per ceAt of the pro-
the following services and equipm e n t as soon as available:

per cent each subsequent year.
T h e Senate has under consideration a $3,375,250,000 statefederal highway construction program. Senator Barkley is reported pressing for passage before
adjourment.
The House bill is based largely
upon suggestions made by officers of t h e American Association
of S t a t e Highway Officials, resulting largely f r o m a concensus of testimony by municipal officials, representatives of farmers,
industry and labor throughout
the country.
Representative Ramspeck of
Georgia is reported to have predicted t h a t the House will adjourn by October 1st. The highway legislation will have h a r d
sledding if it is to pass by t h a t
time, unless Congress "hears
from home."

member who held a full-time position prior to J a n u a r y 1, 1921,
is entitled to a prior service certificate granting him full-time
for service rendered prior to J a n uary 1, 1921, but a member who
held a p a r t - t i m e position, such as
an alderman or supervisor in one
of the smaller communities in
t h e State, is entitled to only a
fraction of t h e time actually
served, in a prior service certificate. For example, a member of
the Retirement System who was
a full-time employee prior to
J a n u a r y 1, 1921 for a period of
six years would receive a prior
service certificate allowing him
six years on such certificate. On
t h e other hand, a member who
was an alderman or county supervisor for a like period of six
years prior to J a n u a r y 1, 1921.
would be allowed only one-sixth
of the time served or one year on
his prior service certificate.
The Results
This results in a situation
wherein a p a r t - t i m e officer or
employee, .such as an alderman or
supervisor, receiving a yearly salary of $3,000, could claim only
partial time for services rendered
prior to J a n u a r y 1, 1921, but a
full-time employee, such as a policeman or fireman, having an
annual .salary of $1,000, could
claim full-time for services rendered prior to t h a t date.
I believe t h a t this m a t t e r
should be remedied by permitting
a p a r t - t i m e employee or officer
to claim full-time on a prior .service certificate.

Use of Parking
Meters Reported
On the Increase
T h e use of parking meters is
reported on the increase in m a n y
parts of the country and additional communities are considering the installation of eqiupment.
Approximately 450 cities use
parking meters. Four out of nine
cities with populations between
5,000 and 1,000,000 have meters;
also moi-e t h a n half of t h e
23 cities with populations of
250,000 to one-half million, a n d
29 of t h e 55 cities of 100,000 to
250,000 population, 47 of the 107
cities of 50 to 100 thousand population. The ratio of installations
in smaller communities is less
t h a n in the larger cities. Approximately half of the cities
with populations exceeding 50,000
are using meters, a n d most of
the communities t h a t ai-e not
using the equipment at present,
have the matter under consideration.

Moreover, a s t h e C o u n c i l m a n

w a s quickly advanced, a n d w i t h - i n t h r e e years h e r e a c h e d $4,350.
Cohen feels t h a t R e c h e t n l c k h a s

WASHINGTON—The United States Civil Service
Commission last week submitted to Congress the draft of
a bill to provide overtime compensation and a differential
for regularly scheduled night work for certain employees
of the Bureau of Customs. With the proposed bill, the
Commission submitted to Congress recommendations on
Bureau of Customs pay policies. The night work provisions
set an important precedent for all Federal employees.

Incidentally,
certain
questions
arose concerning t h e p a y of cust o m s employees.
Because it was not possible to
settle these questions in t h e t i m e
