Despite All The Talk—No Cuts In U. S.
PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATORS; Agencies for Some Time in the Future
Importantl
SOMETHING NEW! The
LEADER has begun a new
section dealing with Public
Administration. It is our
plan, in extending the scope
of LEADER coverage, to
make this a better publication. We feel that the
public administrator and
the employee of a government agency require more
than a weekly resume of
civil service rules, regulations, lists, complaints, and
personnel changes. They will
be better public servants,
better goverrunental technicians, if they know what
n e w t h i n g s are being
planned in their departments, and in others: if
they know wtiav new devices
and methods are becoming
available in transportation,
sanitation, health, police,
education, welfare, hospital,
sewage, and flre 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
the problems of some communities, and relate
the
solutions to problems by
other communities; it will
record new ideas by public
ofUcials and employees and
by others whose work and
ta.lents are impoi'tant in
government.
WASHINGTON—Bureau of the Budget has followed
up the President's request to get ready for the transition
of government to its peacetime status.
Harold Smith, budget director,
has notified all agencies that
they must clean house and find
out what functions they can drop
when the war ends. He has given
them 30 days to provide this information.
In the face of this order, however, many agencies are asking
for more employees. The huge
jobs of contract termination, veteran administration, disposal of
surplus property and other problems concerned with reconversion are absorbing
personnel
from other activities.
Shifting Take Place
At CPA, personnel is being
agencies expected to undergo the
most drastic cut. Thousands of
imfilled jobs exist in the old line
agencies. They have curtailed
many of the their normal functions and need thousands of
shifted from rationing to price
control. WPB is studying the re- workers to catch up with this
conversion job and few cuts are work.
The President's order to cut

open up opportunities for promotion of younger employees.
3. To build up loyalty, secure
better satisfied employees and
lessen labor turnover.
The
employer must
weigh
these motives and
objectives
against the cost of the plan to
him. Changes and amendments
in an existing plan would logically be treated in the same manner. Of course, in that connection
consideration should at all times
be given to the trends in modem
pension plans of employers and
governmental units and to the
question as to whether particular
clashes of employees are being
treated equitably and whether the
employer is making a reasonable
Sfafe Assn, Submits 11-Point Program
For Improvement of Retirement System
ALBANY—Charles Dubuar, chairman of the Committee on Retirement Law of the Association of State Civil
Service Employees, this week submitted to State Comptroller Moore a detailed 11- point program for revision of
the employees' retirement and pension systent.
The repoi-t, which had the approval of the entire Executive
Committee of the Association, was
widely hailed by those who saw It
as "a masterpiece." Unlimited
credit was voiced to Mr. Dubuar
and his associates, including John
T. De Graff, counsel to the Association, for the completness and
the readability of the repoii;.
A copy, with several supporting
data, was handed to State Comptroller Prank C. Moore UBider
whose supervision the Retirement
System is administered. The report itself paid tribute to Mr.
Moore's e x p r e s s ^ desire to "humanize" the pension system. After
the Comptroller and his aides
have studied the Dubuar report,
it is expected that Mr. Moore and
representatives of the Association
will sit down to discuss the vaillous points and attempt to reach
some agreement on proposed revisions which will have to be made
largely by amendment to the law.
This may take a few weeks, but
meanwhile the report itself will be
made available to all state and
municipal workers through The
LEADER. The first section of it
follows:
General Statement
Among the motives influencing
an employer to adopt a pension
lan for employees are the follow-
g
ig:
1. To meet the social obligation of the employer for employees who have served faithfully for long years.
2. To provide for orderly withdrawals of aged employees and to

C/.S. Civil Service Asks Time-and-a-Half
Overtime Pay for Federal Employees
"WASHINGTON—Let's give government v^^orkers the

Welfare Workers
Get New Rule
On Overtime
NYC Gives Employees Supper-Money
Instead of Pay for Overtime Work
Employees of the NYC D e p a r t m e n t of Welfare, now have a
choice in connection with their
overtime work. They can either
t a k e time-off, or sacrifice t h e
time-off for civil service credits.
Following Is the recent d e p a r t m e n t procedure which set up t h e
Idual overtime regulation:
—Credit for overtime shall begin one hour a f t e r t h e close
of the working day (provided no
t i m e is t a k e n for supper). I n case
a n employee leaves t h e office for
supper, t h e amount of time t a k e n
will be deducted from the overt i m e credit.
O — I f the employee elects to use
^
his overtime for civil service
credit, he is not allowed time off;
a n d employees chosing time-off
,will not receive civil service credit
f o r overtime.
—If a n employee who elects to
receive civil service credit h a s
less t h a n 75 hours of overtime
d u r i n g the armual r a t i n g period,
lie receives no credit and t h e
overtime is cancelled a t the end
of the rating period.
—Division Directors a n d a d ministrative supervisors m-.y
ilecide whether t o g r a n t employees time-off for overtime t h e day
following overtime work, or a t
iKHne f u t u r e time.
By JEROME YALE
New York City employees who find themselves working overtime
don't get paid for t h e extra hours, but they do get time off to m a k e

subway m a n and his wife came in
with this difficulty.
They h a d been having trouble
with their young daughter, who

Since then, however, they h a d
reconsidered, and figured t h a t
perhaps i t wasn't all t h e girl's
fault. They h a d bought new f u r n iture, fixed up their home to make
it more attractive and wanted
their daughter back.
T h e social worker to whom they
explained the case was able to
tell t h e m w h a t steps to take t o
have the girl released f r o m t h e

Among the varied duties of welfare employees In New York City

will be so again when the war

S
TATE Senator Seymour Halpern, of Queens, head of
the Senate Civil Service Committee, has laid the basis
for an equitable meeting of views on two issues now
rending the relations of State employees and the State admintration.
These issues are : 1) salary allocations; 2) Feld-Hamilton law.
On the first of these problems, Senator Halpern suggests that higher allocations be granted, and as quickly
as possible. The Senator is in a position to know the facts.
He has been with the mental hygiene situation for a long
time; studied it from the inside, actually entering an institution incognito and living with the employees. His
views should be given the greatest consideration when
he writes in support of improved pay status: "I have
talked to numbers of those employees; seen how they live,
how they have fallen into debt, how many of them are
tempted to leave State service. And we. . . .know of the
manpower drainage caused by the war emergency . .
The Senator's cool, carefully-reasoned letter to the John
Bui-ton, the State's Budget Director, then weighs the merits
of proposed changes in the Feld-Hamilton law. The conclusion which Halperji reaches, after carefully examining the alterations in the act proposed by Burton, is that
it would be better to wait than to plunge into these highly
controversial waters. The Feld-Hamilton act is a highly
complex piece of legislation, and cannot lightly be undone.
Says Halpern: "I feel that the main operations of FeldHamilton have been smooth. The law came about after
the most thorough and lengthy consideration of all factors. And even if, in some of its aspects, it could be made
a little less rigid, I feel there is much to be gained by
leaving the measure untouched. On the other hand, any
tampering with the act would cause confusion and possible dissatisfaction. I should like to delay action on any
proposed changes until 1946, which time it would undoubtedly take to digest thoroughly the complexities of
the situation."
That, we think, is the cool-headed approach. Both
the Budget Director and the employees may well use that
letter as a set of Marquis of Queensbury rules in ironing out
their differences.

Here's
why: Some departments,

on
their work because of reduced
staffs. They can't get anyone to
work for less than $25 a week.
Some young girls worked out a

which enabled them to obtain

or jobs with private firms at
much higher fates of pay than
they would have received
without the NYC experience.

Campaign for Increajse* in

The campaign for the increase
in population had a particular repercussion in the field of public
service.
a) A subsidy, rather conspicuous in comparison to the basic
salary or wage, was granted to
married employees and employees
with childien.
b) Awards for marriages and
births were granted.
c) A special law was decreed
by which officials, if bachelors,
could not be promoted to a rank
superior to a Grade IX and could
not be promoted any longer if
they already held a superior rank.
Fascism has deeply damaged
the structure of the State and
local administration by creating
an overburdened bureaucracy, out
of proportion to needs, consisting of persons who have secured
tlieir positions by political merits,
instead of by personal competency.
Naturally enough, by way of
reaction, all the old civil servants
and part of the new ones which
did not benefit from the Fascist
laws, remained deeply anti-Fascist and always sabotaged all the
initiatives and undertakings of
the regimye.
Effect of War on the Civil Service
Under the pretext that the nation was at war and that any
criticism was an act (tf sabotage
against the war eff(»t of the
country, the Fascist Party t i i ^ t ened its control still more and
surrounded the dishonesty of
gerarchi and officials with a sort
of psychological immunity.
Furthermore, the necessity of
organizing total war and the direct c(Hitrol by the State over the
industries and all econ(»nic activities of the country gave rise
to a "war bureaucrticy" which
still more increased the number
of officials and decreased the e f ficiency of the offices.
The state at war and bombardments had made demoralization
and corruption of officials even
more serious, while public services became more disorganized.
Allied Military Government
was, therefore, faced with a very
complicated situation. It had to
Reorganize ttie administrative life
of the country with very limited
means and scanty personnel a l
its disposal.
It had to reduce the number
of employees, epurate the offices
of fascists and dishonest people,
imbue officials with a democratic
mentality, eliminate the causes
of corruption which, in part, were
due to the absence of a public
sense of moral responsibility but,
above all, to the poor salary and
wages paid to men and women
who could not afford to be honest.
All these problems were and

The Editors consider this article by Col.
Poletti to be one of the most important
contributions to public administration
ever made. It illustrates what happens
to the public service under the kind of
rule which Fascism sets up—and offers
an object lesson to every public admin'
istrator, every civil employee. The article was written exclusively for the

is that of getting every liberated

The principle of giving responsibility to the anti-Fascists implied the selection of the "right
man for the right job." It wsis
necessary to be absolutely certain that they were not in ariy
way tainted with Fascism.
To this end, in addition to
epurating the Fascist categories
eniunerated in the Regional Orders, AMG compelled all employees in the public offices to fill
out a questionnaire which wits
afterwards carefully checked.
Reduction of Personnel
'
AMG h a s dissolved many institutions created by Fascism.
These measiures were taken orly
after it had been decided that
such institutions should not suj;vive in a democratic regime or
^ere completely useless. In other
instances AMG transformed ir^stitutions, placing them at the
service of the democratic State,
while reducing the personnel
which was at all times excessive.
Lo(A to Future
Much progress has been madb
in little over one year. Continued energetic, courageous actioi;i
is necessary. Twenty-two years
ot Fascism brought about tremendous corrosion. It cannot
all be eliminated in a few months.
The democratic forces in Italjr
are on Uie march. They will
succeed in erecting a sound clean

vitally essential to any democracy.

How the RFC Vf Ul Dispose
Of Surplus U.S. Properties
fiy CHARLES SULLIVAN
Leader Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON—Municipalities and educational institutions
will be given first choice of all
properties disposed of by the
Reconstmction Finance Corporation under the law. Lists of
materials available and prices
will be made and distributed to
local, county. State and Federal
agencies for first choice.
Materials, equipment and real
estate not wanted by these
groups will be thrown on the
market for purchase by private
interests.
Peacetime Basis
Preliminary plans are being
amde to put the l\uge financial
structure of the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation on a peacetime basis.
The biggest job facing RFC
now is the disposal of its surplus
property and what to do with
t h e vast amounts of resomces
it gathered while financing t h e
m a j o r p a i t of the Allied industrial war. The surplus property
bill just passed by Congress sets
the framework for the task but
the administrative job is immense.
Key to what RFC has to do
is a look at the war job it did.
Through its many subsidiaries,
in cooperation with other government agencies it has been
devoted almost entirely to war
work in the past four years.
In the war program RFC, itself. as distinguished from its
war subsidiaries, made loans to
manufactum-s, large and small,
engaged in war work for plant
- expansion, machinery,
equipment, working capital and other
purposes.
The War Corporations
Its war corporations are:
Defense Plant Corporation, to
finance or construct plants and
to acquire machinery, equipment,
etc.
Metals
Reserve
Company,
Rubber Development Corporation, and Defense SuppUes Corporation to acquire various supplies oi metals, rubber and other
strategic and critical materials,
and to facilitate their distribution;
U. S. Commercial Company, to
compete with enemy countries
for the purchase of materials
t h a t might be of use to the
enemy, some of which would be
useful to -ourselves;
Defense Homes Corporation,
to build housing facilities in
connection with the m a n u f a c ture of war materials; and
War Damage Corporation, to
insure against the destruction
of property by enemy action.
Neither the RFC nor Secretary
of Commerce Jesse Jones, who
is the top m a n for the organization, determined policies in connection with the war. When requested to do so by the appropriate war agency, with the approval of Congress, RFC f u r nished materials for them.
Helpful to Small Business
RFC h a s been especially helpful to small business enterprises
in the war effort and during
the war period. I n the last 18
months it has authorized more
t h a n 3300 loans, totaling more
t h a n $498,000,000 to business
enterprise.
I n addition to its war activities, the RFC continued its normal fuinctions, including p a r ticularly making credit available
at reasonable rates in almost all
fields of enterprise when it c a n -

Salaries of
Town Employees
An informal opinion of the
State Attorney-General h a s held
that a town board may decrease
the salary of a town officer in
the competitive civil service class
during the budget year.
In the absence of statute or
rule, a civil service commission
bfi« no jurisdiction over t h e
salary of a town officer or employee. Accordingly, by reason of
Section 27 (I) of the Town Law.
the town board may, from time
to time, fix and decrease the
salaries of town officers, officials and employees, even though
they are in the competitive class
of t h e civil service.
Pension Contributions
In another informal opinion,
the Attorney-General held t h a t
contributions payable by a town
to the New York State Retirement System for town employees
are a general town charge,
(Section 78, Civil Service Law.)
Moneys raised by a town for
highway purposes may be expended only for those purposes.
iSections 277, 284 and 285 of t h e
Highway Law; see informal
opinion of the Attorney-General
dated December 13, 1943.) To
permit use of highway moneys
for general town purposes would
also be contrary to the pui'pose
of subdivision 5 of Section 4 of
the Tax Law providing for the
exemption of veterans' property
from general taxes by making
such property liable for a highway tax.
I t would therefore appear t h a t
it is .specifically provided by law
t h a t moneys in a library or a
highway fund may only be applied to those purposes respectively.
Unexpended balances in the
town highway and library f u n d s
may not be used to pay contributions due from a town to
the New York State retirement
system for its town employees.
Libraries
Many of the towns and villages
have libraries which are administered by library boards. As a
general rule these board members are outstanding citizens of
the community who receive n o
contribution for their public
service.
Originally many of these libraries were financed from private endowments. However, tod a y many are operated by governmental funds.
If more t h a n half of t h e total
annual appropriation of the library is received f r o m governmental funds (county, town,
village or state moneys). the
library may generally be considered a public library and its
employees public employees.
County commissions may. classify these positions and treat
such libraries &s if they were a n
agency of the local government.
Payrolls of such employees might
well be certified, and all appointments
and
other
personnel
changes should be made in accordance with the Civil Sei-vice
Law and rules.

not be obtained at fair rates

Mortgage Company
The RFC Mortgage Company
was created in 1935 to assist in
the reestablishment of a normal
mortgage market on urban income-producing
property.
It
makes real estate mortage loans
to aid in the construction of
new buildings for which there
is a demonstrated economic need
and upon properties in distress,
where the applicant cannot obtain funds elsewhere a t reasonable rates and terms.
At the present time the principal functions of the Mortgage
Company are (1) creating ft

WASHINGTON — The Federal
Government is pledged to give
returning veterans every chance
in the world to get on Uncle
Sam's payroll.
This pledge was made by CJivil
Service Commissioner Arthur S.
Flemming in a speech made in
Chicago to the International
Organization of Lions Club.
Mr. Flemming said that disabled
veterans must be given what
amounts to absolute preference in
the filling of Federal positions.
He revealed that over a period
of 20 months approximately 2,500
veterans of World War I and II
with real physical handicaps had
ben placed in the Federal Government.
