Pay Raises in View
For U. S. Employees
WASHINGTON—Federal employees can reasonably
expect to get a basic pay raise as soon as Congress reconvenes in November.
Statements by Sen. Downey, chairman of the Senate
Civil Service Committee, and Rep. Robert Ramspeck,
chairman of the House Civil Service Committee, give the
brightest picture for raises since start of the war. Sen. Downey announced he
would promote the following
three-point plan:
—That all Federal employees
who are taken off the Federal payroll because of a reduc-

THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION section (see pages
10 and 11) deals with news,
plans, programs of States,
counties, cities towns and
villages; it presents the
problems of some communities, and relates Ihe solutions to problems by other
communities: it records new

have taken place in their cost of
living.

of the Overtime Pay Act on

providing, on an indefinite basis,
for t h e payment of true time and
one-half to all salaried Federal
employees who are called upon to
work in excess of 40 hours.
Ramspeck in Support
Rep. Ramspeck pledged himself
to support raises for government
workers if the "Little Gteel" formula was broken, but said t h a t
even if it wasn't, federal employees deserved more money.
Ramspeck and Downey are the
key men in Congress to secure
raises for government workers.
With their avowed support it is
generally believed here t h a t basic
pay raises can't miss.
Sen. Downey explains his stand
on the federal wage question:
"Throughout the war period
there h a s been a general recognition of t h e fact t h a t private employees should be granted 15 per
cent pay increases over base rates
as of J a n u a r y 1, 1941, in order to
allow for increases in cost of living. Today there seems to be a
growing recognition of the f a c t
these increases should be permitted to exceed 15 per cent. U n der existing laws, as these a d j u s t ments are made for private employees, comparable adjustments
are made for Federal workers who
are paid on a n hourly or daily
basis and whose rates of pay are
fixed by wage boards. Salaried
federal employees are in identically the same position as those

ALBANY — Several thousands of State institution
workers are affected by changes upward in their salary
grades made by the Salary Standardization Board with
approval of Budget Director John E. Burton. At the same
time thousands of others who had appealed for more
money have lost another round in their battle and must
renew their fight for similar treatment. The Board refused their appeal for re-allocation into higher salary
brackets.
This week. Budget Director B u r ton announced, following completion pf tlie re-gvacling of schedules,

Credit for t h e victory of the
employees who got raises and for
the retroactive feature goes to the
Association of State Civil SerVice
Employees, which has been vigilant, active and persistent in the
fight. The battle now will be carried on to vindicate the demands
of the groups t h a t failed to win
reallocation of their jobs into higher brackets.
It is estimated t h a t the raises
now won will total around $250,000. The overall effect on attendants in the Mental Hygiene hospitals is to raise their present maximum from $1,600 a year to $1,700.

Not all the attendants will be

of $1,200: those in the middle
range will be unaffected for the
present; and those who had reached the maximum of $1,600 will

Old-Ximers for FDR
The upper brackets of the old
line agencies shewed the strongest
feeling for Roosevelt. Most of the
war agencies were about evenly
divided. Practically all the governm e n t employees interviewed said
they thought the Republicans h a d
grown stronger in t h e Federal
service since the last election.
Most of them also felt t h a t
Dewey would make government
more efficient. Very few feared
t h a t a change in administration
would have m u c h to do with
changing their jobs. Most persons
who want Roosevelt claimed Dewey was too young and didn't know
enough about the foreign situation.

Overtime Pay

Longer Hours
Federal employees may continue
to receive overtime pay even if t h e
U.S. work-week should be cut
down to 39 hours.
T h e angle, noted by attorneys
for t h e United Federal Workers
of America, is in t h e wording of
Section 3(b) of t h e Federal Over

all employees, covered by t h e law,

Women Hatch Up Sinister Plot
To Oust Men From Government Jobs
WASHINGTON—Men, watch out. T h e women have cooked up
a sinister plot to oust you out of your government job.
They plan to m a k e goverrunent service so obnoxious for m e n
t h a t women will wind up with all t h e jobs.
Leader of these skirted plotters is R u t h Welty, acting chief of
t h e Civil Service Commission's test construction unit. They call
themselves "Matriots," and the guiding light of t h e organization
is a book entitled, "Calling All Women," written by Miss Welty.
"Dehorn, declaw, a n d deglamorize government so t h a t to the
average power-lured male it will be just a chore. He will no longer
feel t h a t his masculine capacities are challenged or allowed to
express themselves. He will get fed up . . . and step out with relief,"
according to the book.
Take t h a t , m e n ! See w h a t you're up against?
Here's more of the same; the bfiok outlines a five-point a t t a c k :
1. Clutter red tape around t h e office.
2. Praise only the men who h a v e h a d no h a n d in t h e war.
3. Call all men -who want to get into government "sissies."
5. Act as men's constant mentors a n d "snoop" if you have to.
4. Picket all buildings where m e n hold policy-forming positions.
First reaction to the publicity given the book a n d organization
was a very red face on the Civil Service Commission. They unofficially ordered Miss Welty to say no more about the subject. Officially
the Commission m a d e no comment.
All Washington, however, got a big laugh out of the whole plan.

LFRED E. SMITH used to say it's good politics to
have a clean civil service. Once, in talking about
taxes, he uttered these words, "There ar<5 two
thvigs that don't fit together — political patronage and
reduction in the cost of Government."
His record on civil service, both from the point of
view of legislation and his attitude toward administration,
w a s admirable. The Civil Service Reform Association,
watchdog of the merit system, f e e l s that his record is
the equal of, and probably surpasses, that of any other
Governor.
During his period in Albany, Governor A1 Smith
was solidly behind the principle of seniority in the event
of layoffs, a principle enacted into l a w ; it was under his
administration, too, that State employees earned the right
to a statement of reasons before they could be fired.
During a reorganization of State departments, A1 w a s
strongly concerned lest employees get kicked around and
saw that they weren't.
Yes, A1 Smith was an honest, straighlforward, clean
government man all the way through. Civil service as well
as the nation as a whole has lost a friend.

that just after reappointing

Protests Handling
Of P r o m o t i o n Lists
Sirs: Please consider this letter
a protest against discriminatory
handling of promotional lists in
the various municipal departments.
The Department of Welfare h a s
seen fit to create almost 50 additional Grade 3 stenographer positions (and is still in the process
of making others); thus, its promotional list for this grade h a s
been moving rapidly. I, who a m
u n f o r t u n a t e enough to be a t t a c h ed to the D e p a r t m e n t of Hospitals,
do not stand a Chinaman's chance
of receiving a promotion unless
similar action is taken in our
Department. I've already ascertained t h a t a mere 8 appointments
have been m a d e from our G r a d e
3 Stenographer list throughout
all City hospitals, with no more
forthcoming.
W h a t ' s good enough for Welf a r e is goood enough for Hospitals.
Present grade specifications will
not permit of many (or even any)
appointments from promotional
lists. T h e Stenographer list plus
the new G r a d e 3 Clerk list might
just as well be non-existent u n less some quick action is taken
on the upgrading of specific job
categories.
LIBBIE DIAMOND,
Stenographer Grade 2,
HE'S PUT ELECTRICITY to
work for t h e NYC D e p a r t m e n t of
Public Works. Back in 1939, when
J o h n Essex was appointed head of
t h e cost acounting section of t h e
department, h e decided t h a t electric machines were needed to
save thousands of hours of work
with pen a n d pencil. Together
with F r a n k P. Clements, head of
t h e DPW Division of Administration, he was able to put over a
convincing sales talk, and today
t h e d e p a r t m e n t h a s equipment
rivaling t h a t of the largest business organizations.
Now littlfe holes are punched on
cards, they are fed into an automatic .machine and sheets come
out, printed with any desired information on payrolls, costs of
construction or maintenance or
other factors. Despite opposition,
at the time based on fear t h a t
the machines would mean a cut
in staff, t h e staff h a s increased,
but t h e work is much more complete, a n d thousands of routine
bookkeeping operations are performed by electric impulses.
Studied
Accounting
Mr. Essex started his career
with the City a long time ago,
and studied accounting nights at
Pace Institute and St. Francis
Academy in Brooklyn. In 1911, he
began as a $300 a year clerk with
the Board of Estimate.
"$300 was more money t h e n , "
he says, "maybe It amounted to
about $600 in present value, but
still It wasn't a royal salary."

Brooklyn, so he came back to t h e

Then, when the new City

Thanksgiving
Holiday
I F you have been looking forward to the Thanksgiving holiday a n d have tried to make plans
for visiting or entertaining d u r ing t h e Thanksgiving week-end
this year, you may have m a d e t h e
disconcerting discovery t h a t 1944
calendars are not entirely in
agreement regarding
the day
upon which the holiday falls.
This year there are five T h u r s days in November. Some calendai-s
indicate t h a t Thanksgiving Day
falls on t h e last Thursday—November 30, whereas other calendars specify the f o u r t h Thursday
—November 23.
I n a s m u c h as most State employees are given t h e day off on
Thanksgiving I>ay, it becomes imp o r t a n t to know which calendars
are correct.
Questions Settled by Legislation
For the peace of mind of citizens of the Empire State, our
Legislature two years ago tried to
eliminate any confusion on the
subject of Thanksgiving Day ^y
enacting a special law stating the
date upon which it is to fall each
year. T h a t such confusion still
exists a n d is unwittingly fostered
by calendar makers is not t h e
fault of our legislators. In 1942,
they passed a law which declares
t h a t the fourth Thursday in November is Tlianksgiving Day. For
State employees, therefore, the
issue is settled.
The statute, which was a n
a m e n d m e n t to Section 24 of the
General Construction Law, was
apparently prompted by the con-
cepted date of Thanksgiving Day
and the one decreed by the President.
Additional Day of Thanksgiving
May Be Decreed
As the law now stands, the
f o u r t h Thursday in. November is
the official Thanlcsgiving Day for
this State but room is left for
either the Governor or the President to designate an additional
day as " a day of general t h a n k s giving, general fasting and prayer, or other general religious observances." This latter provision
could be applied in celebration of
the end of the war in the European t h e a t r e and in the Pacific
theatre.
Reinstatement After Disability
A S t a t e employee who is injured in the course of his employment is eligible to receive workmen's compensation for time loot
from work. For the period of his
disability such employee is usually
granted a leave of absence with-,
out pay. So long as the disability]
does not continue for more the
a year and the employee repor
back for work within t h e year,
is eligible for reinstatement to h i s '
old job. But what happens in the
case of a n employee who is prevented by his disability from returning to work within t h e year
W h a t are his rights to reinstatement?

Rules for the Classified Civil

social concepts have developed
which require consideration:

this Act is t h a t pensions are n o t
in exact proportion to t h e salaries

above figures are ba.sed on t h e assumption t h a t over a period of 35
years, t h e final salary is 150% of
t h e initial salary.

I t is t r u e t h a t employee pension

m i n i m u m pension idea, possibly
because such private pension plans
a r e supplemented by t h e Social

lower-paid employees.
(b) T h e F e d e r a l Civil Service
R e t i r e m e n t Act h a s adopted t h e
principle of m i n i m u m pensions by

Buy the Right Article, Atthe RightTime
In the Right Amount, At the Right Price!
By Joseph E.
Nicholson
Vice-President, National Institote of GoTcmmeni Purchasing
City Purchasing Agent, Milwaokee, Wis.
MILWAUKEE, New York, Cmcinnati, Los Angeles, San F r a n cisco. Pitsburgh a n d Minneapolis,
to mention a few, have a m o d e m
centralized f o r m of purchasing.
This means, t h e authority for
making pxurchases is placed in
the h a n d s of one qualified person, committee or board. However, m a n y large cities and hu..dreds of smaller ones, I a m sorry
to say, still do their buying in a
h a p h a z a r d way, with the result
t h a t t h e taxpayers are forced
to foot a higher a n n u a l tax bill
because of their carelessness,
waste, favoritism, a n d political
finagling in the placing of contracts for materials, supplies and
equipmerft. In m a n y of these
communities, t h e mayors-elect
have prOTnised to reduce taxes
by installing a m o d e m businesslike system of purchasing. E n abling legislation is t h e n adopted
and lo! thsy appoint political
henchmen, who forthwith distribute purchase orders for m a terials needed by t h e city t o
those concerns or individuals
who helped thenr get electcd.
Take Milwaukee as an e x a m ple:
Milwaukee long ago kicked
politics out of its buying business a n d established a system
whereby each qualified m a n u facturer or agent is given a n
opportunity to compete for city
busine.ss. It costs only a 3c stamp
to send a bid to this city, and
every bidder receives the same
consideration that his competitors do. You don't have to be a
friend of a friend of the Mayor
or an alderman to receive courteous consideration and fair
city. Any<me can spend money,
It takes no brains to ;q?end $2.000 for a fur coat which has an
actual value of $750.00.
But professional purchasing or
spending money in a way to obtain fun value for every dollar,
is a business for those who have
made it their life work. Modem
Every sentence in Mr. Nicholson's article is packed with meat tor the munici'
polity—whether it be a large city or the
smallest community. He describes trankly how buying takes place in too many
towns—and tells how one major city renders its citizens 'streamlined' service in
purchasing. This is MUST reading tor all
officials and employees who have to do
with purchasing, recommending
purchases, receiving estimates, or making
disbursements.
t r e a t m e n t . T h a t is t h e policy,
a n d t h a t reputation is nationwide.
ReceiTe Best Prices
As a result we receive t h e best
prices possible, quality and service considered. Additional discounts a r e given by virtue of
the large quantities purchased
and the fine credit rating of the
purchasing methods can be
briefly described as "buying the
right article, at the right time,
in the right a m o u n t and at t h e
right price," and having it on
h a n d when needed. Savings for
Milwaukee through these m e t h ods amounts to approximately
15%, or from $375,000. t o $900,000. per a n n u m saved on annual
purchases of f r o m $2,500,000 to
$6,000,000.
How It Woriw
,
This is accomplished by a p plying the following principles:
1. One set of trained e m p l o y e d
does the buying. T h i s not only
leads to intelligent buying a n d
reduced seller's expense, but !t
also cuts down t h e volume of
work, records a n d materials.
,
2. Quantity busing—trade a n d
cash discounts—deduction of excise taxes.
•
3. Development of s t a n d a r d s ,
^cifications
and
infection
methods, so t h a t all bids are on
t h e same quality a n d type of
material, a n d goods a r e inspected before acceptance to insure
proper quality a n d quantity.
4. Supervisi(»i
and
control
over storage a n d distribution df
stock, preventing t h e f t , overstocking and obsolescence.
^
5. Supervision over disposal qf
surplus a n d wornout materials
so t h a t t r a n s f e r s may be m a d e
between d e p a r t m e n t s a n d juiik
materials m a y be classified a c cording t o kinds of materials,
so as to realize t h e highest p r i c t e
when sold. (For example: c a r d s
and p a p e r cartons when sold u
waste paper along with o t h ^
mixed paper h a v e $14.00 per t o n
ceiling price. W h e n cards a r e sold
separately, ceiling is $30.00 p e r
t<Mi. paper cartonfc, $23.00 p«r
ton.)
Nexl week another article ky
Mr. Nicholson wiU describe the
modem development of cooperative purchasing by maniclipalities.
Post-War Program of the NYC Hospitals Dept.
a n d will be affiliated with
Columbia University. This great
institution will be devoted exclusively to the t r e a t m e n t of
early cases of cancer and to
research work and teaching. I n
t h e same vicinity and also affiliated with Columbia, will be the
new tropical and contagious
disease hospital, devoted primarily to research in tropical diseases. which are expected to t e
a m a j o r problem during the next
quarter century because so m a n y
of our servicemen will be r e t u r n ing f r o m tropical lands, because
of greatly increased air travel
a f t e r t h e war. arul other postwar related factors. The fight
against cancer, one of m a n ' s
most deadly diseases, will be c a r ried forward on still another
f r o n t , ^ n c e we are planning a
new hospital f o r long t e r m cancer cases in ccxmeeUon with
Memorial Hospital, whei'e the
city will have the advantage,
not Mily of the expert staff at

advanced
t r e a t m e n t facilities already provided by t h a t institution.

Commissioner of Hospitals, City of New York

O P NEW YORK CITY'S postwar expenditures, roughly 15%
h a s S:een set aside for extending
ho:iPital facilities in our five
boroughs. I t is therefore evident
t h t the care of the sick has an
ail-important place in the postv/ar plans of this city. Our hospiipl program is primarily one
of reconstruction and replacement of existing obsolete a n d
ou moded facilities, but it does
include considerable new construction in areas and commu' »»es where grov/th and development make this necessary. Beiove launching even a brief review of some of the m a j o r projects t h a t are planned, I should
1 ka to emphasize t h a t this a d mini tration, in the years beiore the present war, h a d already
undertaken a gieat
hospital
building and reconstruction program of some thirty million dollars. which was suddenly interrupted when practically all civilian projects had to be discontinued. Thus, our post-war plans
really are only a continuation
a n d extension of that earlier
program.
The
Hospitals
These plans, for t h e most part,
are f a r beyond t h e blueprint
ttage and await only the actual
financing before work can begin. They include m a j o r items
of reconstruction and replacement at Bellevue H o ^ i t a l totaling $20,000,000. which among
other facilities will provide a
new nurses' hom£ and a new
school for nursing: replacement
of the old F a r m Colony Home
for Dependents on S t a t e u Island
at a cost of $10,000,000: a new
Sea View Tut^rculosis Hospital
on Staten Island costing $7.500.000: and a new chronic ( V ease hoopital on Welfare Island
to replace the present City
Home, whose buildings date back
to 1846. Other city imCitutions

3,000 beds, bringing our total
capacity today t o about 20.500.
Our over-all post war program,
including
reconstmction
and
new buildings, will bring this
city's municipal hospital bed capacity to approximately 30,000
beds, or a 50% increase, which
will make hospital facilities in
this city second to none in tlie
world.
Neighborhood Needs
Without going into great d&tail on the vast a m o u n t of r e search work entailed, I do w a n t
just to mention t h a t our postwar planning was not done
hapazardly, or in a hit-or-miss
fashion. I n each of t h e borougl^
detailed studies were made t a k ing into consideration n e i g h b o r hood needs, m e a n s of t r a n s p c s tation, centers of population, e x isting municipal a n d voluntary
hospital hospital facilities add
other i m p o r t a n t d a t a .
Obviously, this great post-war
building program will require
additional personnel and c r e a t e
increased opportunities for present Hospital D e p a r t m e n t e m ployees.
New general hospitals, each of
750 bed capacity, and costing
about $5,500,000 are irianned for
the E£ist Harlem area oi Manhattan, which will be a reidacement of the present M e t r o p c ^ tan Hospital on Welfare Island,
built almost a century ago; for
the Elmhurst secti<m (rf Queens,
which will replace some of the
present facilities of City Hospital at the south end of Welfare Island which now serves the
Elmhurst-Astoria-Long I s l a n d
City area; for the East Bronx
section and for the BrownsviUe
section of Brooklyn.
TB
Hospitak
Our long range construction
program also includes a new
thousand bed tuberculosis hospital a n d a five hundred bed
convalescent hospital, both on
Welfare Island. New hospital
facilities are planned for long

Many Changes Needed
. Adequate arterial highways in
cities arei mostly re-creation.
The busy business street m a y become a quiet back street without
t h e questionable advantage of
large volumes of t r a f f i c passing
its doors. Quiet residential streets
may be required to abandon their
rows of shade trees in favor of
t h e space required for extra lanes
of traffic. All these and other
inconveniences will be met, b u t

I t is to assist m the orderly
solution of these problems t h a t
t h e S t a t e of New York h a s offered its aid to its (jities.
T r a f f i c volumes early In the postwar era can be expected to exceed the
pre-w.ir t r a f f i c by at lea»t twenty-five
percent.
4. Complete elimin.ation of on-street
^ p a r k i n g or stopping cannot be expected,
b u t parking must be kept to a minimum.
Diagonal parking should be allowed
only on extremely wide thorofares.
5. Most developed business streets
offer poor prospects lor development as
arterial roiites. In most eases • they are
too narrow, land is developed to the
building line, and right-of-way damages
the tax base of the community. Other
closely parallel routes must therefore
be found,
6. In general two unobstructed lanes
of t r a f f i c in each direction must be'
provided. Ea<'h lane must be at least
eleven feet wide—twelve is preferrable.
Two stopping or parking lanes must also
be providetl each at least seven feet wide.
The minimum width between curbs is
therefore fifty-eight feet.
7. High speed t r a f f i c is not necessary
Firefighting Tests Made
On Water, Spray Nozzles
Go into any firehouse these
days, and t h e big talk is about
"fog nozzles," t h e rec^nt development in firefighting which t h e
Navy h a s used to excellent a d vantage.
To find out just what the new
water spray nozzles can and c a n not do, t h e National Board of
Fire Underwriters h a s conducted
a series of tests. Purpose of these
was to determine the effectiveness of sprays, at pressures r a n g ing f r o m 50 to 600 pounds per
square inch on hazards usually
encountered in municipal firefighting.
T h e tests showed, among other
things:
,
T h e r e can De no question of
t h e effectiveness of spray or fog
nozzles for certain classes of
fires, as inflammable liquids, and
for fires in places where smoke
Is a serious h i n d r a n c e to firefighting.
T h a t no characteristics of spray
or fog nozzles justify consideration of such s t r e a m s • replacing
t h e volume available f r o m s t a n d a r d fire d e p a r t m e n t open nozzles,
where fires have reached a stage
producing a large amount of
flame f r o m well involved combustible material.
T h a t the reach of streams is
i m p o r t a n t ; extreme fineness of
spray, even a t high pressure, will
limit the reach to a serious
extent, not commensurate with
any demonstrated improvement
in extinguishing value.
Excellent l a KiUing Heat
T h a t spiiity streams are of excellent worth in killing the b e a t
of a large body of flame, but t h a t
such sprays must have sufficient
volume of discharge.
,
T h a t the increase in pressure
of discharge greatly increases the
entrained air. While such e n trained air might be of a d v a n tage for cellar and basement
fires, and under extreme smoky
conditions, the flame blast, especially if oils are involved, might
in interior fire fighting, be extremely serious to the men a n d
even cause the fire to spread.
T h a t for fires where a large
amount of material is burning,
full nozzle streams with reasonable penetration and volume are
needed.
The Pattern
T h a t the p a t t e r n of the spray
of some of t h e nozzles now on
the m a r k e t is poor for a n y kind
of fire; the spray to be effective
must be such t h a t it is thick a n d
evenly distributed, without air
cones or air pockets.
T h a t size of nozzle a n d d i a m eter of hose must be kept small,
because of nozzle I'eactlon a n d
difficulty in handling hose, where
high nozzle pressures are necessary to produce fineness of spray.
T h a t t h e pressures available
f r o m present day fire a p p a r a t u s
are sufficient for spray application where used in ordinary fire
service.
T h a t additional study Is necessary In t h e design of spray a n d
fog nozzles for fire d e p a r t m e n t
use, and t h a t considerable p r a c tice with such nozzles Is essential to their successful application on fUes.
MANY of the counties in New
