^'W^HE Civil Service LEADER favors higher salaries for
I members of the United States Congress. We know
that Congressmen have been loathe to fequest improved pay. A move is now under way to grant salaries
more adequate in terms ^f the duties, the importance, and
the dignity of Congressional positions. The LEADER
would like to see widespread public support of this move.
If the average lyian on the street were asked who earns
more money—^the chairman of the Senate Committee on
Foreign Affairs or the Mayor of Podunk, he would very
likely answer: "The chairman of,the Foreign Affairs Committee."

B u t h e would be quite wrong. T h e salary of a member of Congress is $10,000 a year—whereas scopes upon scores of relatively
obscure local a n d S t a l e officials e a r n 12, 15, 20 a n d 25 t h o u s a n d
dollars a year.
One of t h e most i m p o r t a n t steps in congressional r e f o r m is t h e
lifting of congressional salaries to the level justified by t h e n a t u r e
of t h e job performed. I n t h e opinion of t h i s newspaper, t h e m e n
who represent t h e people of this country in Washington should,
receive $20,000 a year.
Employees Have a Stake
Public employees—Federal, S t a t e a n d municipal—have a direct
stake in t h e lifting of congressional salaries.
W h y ? Because a t the present moment, t h e f a c t t h a t members
of Congress receive only $10,000 a year limits salaries f o r heads
of Federal agencies and departments, who generally e a r n about t h e
same pay. D e p a r t m e n t h e a d s could not hope to obtain more t h a n
t h e chairmen of t h e committees before whom they come to get a p propriations.
- And, naturally, t h e people all the way down t h e line cannot
expect a n increase in t h e general wage structure unless t h e higher
brackets a r e also lifted.
I n other words, if we a r e to have a sound a n d vigorous career
service in t h e Federal government, we must raise t h e entire structure.
T h e establishment of m i n i m u m employee salaries—say a t around
$1,500 or $1,600 a year—will be of help, of course, b u t it will n o t be
enough. T h e basic need is for complete overhauling.
And -ttiis cannot be done without increasing congressional salaries, which now constitute a n effective celling upon salaries t h r o u g h out t h e entire Federal service.

Local Employees Are Concerned
S t a t e a n d local employees are involved, too. Because a general
Increase in Federal salaries m u s t have a direct effect upon t h e wage
structure in local Governments; a n d inevitably would help t o raise
t h e levels in all Governmental units.
We favor increased salaries for members of Congress, too, because
this will enable t h e men in t h e Senate a n d House to spend more t i m e
a t their public jobs. Moreover, it would enable citizens to compete f o r
the posts who, though they m a y be eminently qualified, now r e f u s e
t o do so because of t h e low remuneration. Higher pay m a y well
result in a n improvement of congressional stature. J u s t like a n y
employee, t h e Congressman must be freed f r o m t h e dread of economic insecurity. It is especially importarJfc' in his job. F u r t h e r m o r e ,
few citizens know how great are t h e expenditures a Congressman is
called upon to make, out of his salary; a n d how little is generally left.
No Nepotism!
'
I n endorsing higher congressional salaries, T h e LEADER makes
one qualification. Nepotism—the placing of relatives in Government
jobs—must go. Indeed, higher salaries will reduce t h e incentive f o r
nepotism. And if Congress is overhauled and streamlined, as now
seems probable, the m a n y new legislative positions t h a t will develop
should be staffed only by t h e most competent personnel.
Every way we look a t it, increased salaries for members of
Congress represent a n advance in good government.

Emil K. Ellis Denounces as 'Municipal Cheating'
A Civil Service Plan to fill Jobs Without Examination
Emil K. Ellis, attorney who conducted an investigation against Paul J. Kern in 1941, last week again assailed
NYC's Municipal Civil Service Commission. Mr. Ellis' view
of a Commission proposal to cover in 127 titles under war
emergency rules without examination, was described by
the phrase "a form of municipal cheating."
The tirade was made on behalf
of a small group of employees—
34 cranemen, whom Ellis represents—but its implications are
wide. Mr. Ellis feels that the City
has no right to take in additional
workers in a title a t the same
time t h a t present workers are
reduced in the number of days
they may put on the job. To The
LEADER, Mr. Ellis said:
Impairs Morale, He Says
"The situation cannot fail to
Impair the morale of civil service
employees. Apparently it is the
policy of the City to resort to
anything, whether ethical, legal
or not, t o circumvent the Labor
Law as to the prevailing r a t e of
wage. This is not a n isolated
case. I understand t h a t the same
methods have been employed in
other civil service titles. I n plain
language, this is a form of municipal cheating of employees which
private employers would not apply.
It is a sharp practice t h a t deserves public denunciation."
The denunciation came, together with others, on Thursday,
November 30, when t h e three
civil service commissioners—^Esther Bromley, Ferdinand Q. Morton a n d Russeir Lord Tarbox—
heai'd themselves raked over the
coals at a public hearing last
week on proposals to fill 127 City
position by temporary (duration)
non-civil service appointments.
Engineers Opposed
One of the most vehement
groups was a committee of engineers who assailed the proposal
as an attempt to deprive 400
of their members, on preferred
lists, f r o m a chance at jobs. The
engineers were d r o p p ^ when
construction work fell off as a
result of the war. Now, they
"Blessed Are the Meek" is the
title of a short, short story appearing in t h e current issue of
Lighting Time, employee publica« o n of the NYC Street Lighting
Bureau. I t deals with a situation
known to many New York City
Employees personally.
"In the course of a Civil Service
Employee"s lifetime there comes

bf the future. His blessed t r a n ouility is disturbed by the Old
Woman's constant reflections on

mqney from the pension fund. He
winces as he thinks of the fishing
trip, the new suit and t h e few
enough glasses of brew he won't
consume this year to make good
t h e debt.
"He studies hard. Never misses
classes, and f a r into the night he
yawns his way through the lessons. He listens jealously to the
contented snoring of t h e Old
Woman as his troubled shoulders

charge, the Commission is a r ranging to fill engineering positions a t lower salaries .by hiring
duration temporaries.
Many other employees spoke a t
the hearing, all against the proposed change.
The Commission had not made
any decision on the matter a t
press time. However, the resolution, affecting the hirings through
Rule V-9-2C would first need the
approval of Mayor L a d u a r d i a ,
then the State Civil Service Commission.
Speaking for the APL City employees locals, Henry Feinstein
suggested t h a t if the _Cpm!nlssion
did adopt the resolution, it should
incluae two safeguards to protect
the rights of City workers:
1. T h a t any provisional hired be
appointed a t the minimum base
salary, plus a $240 cost-of-living
bonus.
2. T h a t wherever possible, t h e
positions above the minimum salaries should be filled by provisional promotions of City employees.
The Commission explains the
need for such hirings since tihe
war situation h a s reduced the
number of applicants for City
jobs to such small numbers t h a t
it isn't worthwhile to go through
the process of advertising positions, accepting applications and
holding tests.
Mr. Ellis' letter to the Commission reads, i n . p a r t :
"On behalf of thirty-four Crane
Enginemen now employed by the
City in various incinerator plants
and landfills, I desire to protest
against the proposal to dispense
with Civil Service examinations
for t h a t title.
"While the proposal to waive

examinations temporarily under
Rule 5-9-2C is on its face a desirable method of enabling the
appointment of badly needed
technicians in a war-time emergency, there is evidence that, at
least in the case of Crane Enginemen, there is no need whatsoever
for this action a n d indeed it may
well serve a n ulterior purpose
prejudicial to the interests of the
Crane Enginemen now employed
by the City.
They Won, But Lost
"Recently the Comptroller made
a determination as to the prevailing rate of wage of Crane
Enginemen at $14.24 a day, representing an increase f r o m the
last determination made in 1937
of $9.50. This increase was won
only after long hearings and i n terminable delays, including court
proceedings. The checks for these
back wages arc now being distributed to the employees. The Budget
Director h a s informed a spokesm a n for these employees t h a t
they will have to accept a fl&t
salary for 1945 of $3,760 a year,
plus a cost-'bf-livlng bonus of
$240, or a total of $4,000 a year,
whereas they are entitled under
the Labor Law, pursuant to the.
Comptroller's determination, t o
a n annual salaiy of $4,457.12.
The Budget Director h a s stated
that if the employees refuse to
accept the flat salary of $4,000,
which Is $457.12 under the determination just made as to the
correct prevailing wage, he wlU
reduce their working time to five
days a week or 260 days instead
of 313 days, as at present, and
will authorize the employment of
additional men for the 53 days
thus cut down.
"This procedure will t h u s cancel
the effect of the Comptroller's determination to cut down the wages
of t h e present employees and will
not result in the saving of a single
cent to the City, for they will
have to pay the additional m e n
the prevailing rate of wage. There
being no question of advantage to
the City in economy, and certainly not in efficiency, in employing
new instead of experienced men,
I can only characterize this practice as spiteful and vindictive.
Apparently there is no a c t u ^
shortage of cranemen, a n d t h e
request for a waiver of examination can only proceed f r o m a
desire to accomplish this subterfuge.
" I therefore resi^ctfully request
that -the .Commission examine
carefully into all of t h e titles
listed in its announcement of
hearing to determine whether
the waiver is sought for ulterior
purposes.
"In any event, I respectfully
ask for a separate public hearing
upon the title of Crane Enginemen."

Whereas, The majority of employees of
the Board of Transportation h a v e maintained and operated the transit faoilitics
in the City of New York, carrying millions of passengers w i t h the highest degree
of safety, w i t h a remarkable and o\itstanding record of efficiency, time-table
accuracy, m i n i m u m operating cost comparable to the largest railroad systems
in the United States, and
Whereas, Federal, State and City authorities h a v e recognized the necessity of
increaein? the salaries of
government
employees to meet or to partially meet
the increase in the cost of living, and
Whereas, The subway employees have
performed their duties in such an outstanding and enthusiastic manner ae to
earn the plaudits of high government
officials, agencies, and the general public, therefore be it
Resolved, That the Council of the City
of N e w York hereby requests, in accordance with the recommendations contained
in the report made on April 28, 1 9 4 3 by
the "Mayor's Committee appointed
to
study labor relations in the City's transit
system" ( t h e Wilkinson Committee), that
Hon. Fiorcllo H. La Guardia, Mayor of
The CHty of N e w York, appoint a committee of disinterested and impartial citizens to examine into and report, w i t h its
recommendations, on the pending dispute
between the Board of Transportation and
its employees, arising o u t of said emj)loyees' request for adjustments in their
wages, hours and working conditions.
Ask Salary C h a n g e
At t h e s a m e time, a n o t h e r resolution was a d o p t e d by t h e Coimcil, u r g i n g t h e B o a r d of T r a n s p o r t a t i o n to g r a n t its employees
salaries equal to those earned by
o t h e r City employees. T h i s resolution, which follows, was also
passed w i t h o u t a vote f r o m Mr.
Hart.
This
resolution
points
out,
among
other things, that the majority of the
employees of the Board of Transportation have not received salary increases
equivalent to the cost-of-living bonuses
granted to other employees of the City.
The substantial increase in the cost of
living over the past three yeai-s has
affected all City employees alike, and the
Council h a s unequivocally gone on record
in favor of cost-of living bonuses for all
City employees and in favor of making
the same permanent. In the opinion of
Your Committee this should apply w i t h
equal force to those employees whose salaries are paid in whole or part from
sources outside the City's t a x budget, and
the Council recently adopted that view
in calling for a cost-of-living bonus for
Board of Education employees.
We accordingly urge similar action on
this resolution w h i c h calls
upon
the
Board of Transportation to grant out of
its funds a salary increase commensurate
with that granted by the City government
to its employees, and present the same
for adoption.
Whereas, The cost of living h a s greatly
increased during the past three years,
various estimates placing .the increase at
somewhere between 3 6 and 4 4 per cent,
and
Whereas. The majority of employees of
the Board of Transportation h a v e not
received salary increases equivalent
to
other employees of The City of
New
York, and
Whereas, Employees o l the Board of
Lady Bowlers
Wanted
to all its employees a salary increase
commensurate with that granted by the
City government to its employees and fur
ther reqnests/^he Board of Transportation
of the City of New Y o f k to grant out
of its funds thi^ salary adjustment in
order that the City may f u l f i l l its obligation to thece f a i t h f u l and deserving Board
Board of Transportation employees.

HAT is the biggest thing which you as a civil
service employee can do this week. It isn't—
1. Worry about your salary, and how to improve it.
2. Think about the coming legislative season, and what
you can do about that.
3. Meditate upon a future promotion examination, and
how to do your best on it.
All these things are very important, and shouldn't be
frozen out of your mind.
But the really biggest thing which you as an employee
can do this week, is—
BUY BONDS! All you can, and then some more.
ABOUT the Little Fellow, two schools of political thought
have
developed.
One group of clubhouse thinkers argues he's much weake%
than he was 4 years ago. Another group, which agreed with the first
view until recently, is now asking, just where is he weaker?

Among Italians, <1

THOSE who adhere to the first view, come back with the point
that he's much weaker in the GOP organization. His strong campaign
for FDR didn't help him in Republican circles, either. At the s a m e
time, the Republicans themselves feel stronger because they control
a vast quantity of State patronage through Dewey—and lots of thi«
patronage falls in New York City. Four years ago, LaGuardia h a d

complete leeway to express his own views.
jEADER,
The Truth About Attica
DURINO the annual meeting of t h e A;3SOciatlon of State Civil
Service Employees, held in Albany on October 17th, Lawrence R. Law,
President of the Attica Prison Chapter, discussed with us t h e 10-hour
day t h a t h a d been i a operation a t this institution for many years in
t h e case of part of the employees. The men who worked this 10-hour
'day s h i f t received two days off each week instead of one, tHe two
days being given together. I n other words, these men were on duty
five days each week instead oi t h e usual six dasrs. Mr. Law stated
t h a t there seemed to be some discontent on this matter and suggested t h a t we look into It. The Association h a d urged and secured
t h e eight-hour law and, of course, has been continuously active in
seeing to it t h a t workers received the benefit of t h a t law.
Accordingly, we asked Commissioner J o h n A. Lyons, of the Dep a r t m e n t of Correction, for an opportunity to discuss the matter
with him. He set a date for the conference and J o h n T. DeGfaff,
Counsel; William P. McDonough, Executive Representative, and the
writer went into all phases of t h e problem with Mr. Lyons and with
William E. Leonard, Deputy Commissioner. They stated t h a t Attica
was the only prison where a 10-hour day, five-day week was in operation: that, as f a r as they were aware, no complaints h a d been filed
against it by the employees and consequently, t h a t they felt the
employees did not object to it.
I
Referendum Suggested
HOWEVER, with the usual desire to cooperate with our Association on employee matters, Mr. Lyons suggested a referendum in
order to know t h e wishes of the employees. He communicated these
plans to Warden Walter B. Martin, and we likewise notified Chapter
President Lawrence R. Law. These gentlemen agreed on the procedure
t o be followed, and t h e vote was taken on November 16th. T h e results
of the vote showed t h a t of the 180 men who were on duty t h a t day
and voted on t h e question (40 were absent on vacation, sick leave or
day off) 148 favored the 8-hour day and -82 favored the 10-hour day.
Nearly 20 per cent of those voting favored the 10-hour day, 5-day
week.
The men having indicated their preference in the truly American
way. Commissioner Lyons stated t h a t the 10-hour work day will be
abolished a t an early date. I n fact, he had committed himself to
abide by the referendiun when he suggested it as a way to learn the
wishes of the employees.
I
Manner of Handling Problems
THAT I S THE WAY our Association handles such employee
problems. It is a i>erfect example of friendly cooperation between
employer and employee.
We used no " t h r e a t to take the violation of the law to t h e
courts." We did not "write to the Attorney General asking for an
adjudication before calling in our attorney." These are the usual
tactics of groups whose only force is the force of threats, and more
threats. The above quotations are from the claims of such a so-called
worker organization in a statement t h a t "in less t h a n one month,
a f t e r Attica members had complained, we win a victory."
An organizer of another such group stated they try to bring
about their ideals and accomplish their aims and objectives through
pressure on the Governor and the Legislature.
Our Association will continue to champion the cause of all State
employees and obtain results by conference and cooperation. We are
entirely capable of taking care of our own problems without the type
of help offered by poorly-informed groups purporting to represent
State workers.
STATE C I V I L S E R V I C E
BRIEFS
l y THEODORE lECKER
Use of Preferred Eligible
Lists
WHEN a competitive civil service employee is laid off because
his position is abolished due to
lack of work or funds. Section 31
of the Civil Service Law requires
the
civil service
commission
•'forthwith to place the name of
said person upon a preferred list
for the office, or position, in
which he has been employed, or
for any corresponding or similar
office or position in the same class,
grade, group, or substantially similar or corresponding group as the
position he formerly held, and to
certify from such list the names
of persons for reinstatement before making certification from any
other list, for such position or
similar position."
It is clear t h a t the law permits
reinstatement not only to the position last held, but to any "similar position." Not so clear, however. is the precise meaning of a
"similar position" and its application to positions of the same title,
but involving different specialized
knowledge, skills and duties.
Not Clear Cut
Whether or not a preferred eligible list should be certified to flU
such a position is not always easy
t o decide. Even judges differ. Witness a recent case Involving an eligible on a preferred list for Senior
Attorney. This eligible h a d been
employed In the Transit Commission prior t o its abolition and
sought reinstatement to the position of Senior Attorney (Taxation and Finance) in the Tax Department. T h e State Civil Service
Department refused to certify his
name, contending t h a t t h e position of Senior Attorney In t h e
Transit Commission involved different duties and h a d different
i-equlrements for entrance tUftn
the position of Senior Attorney
in the Tax Department and t h a t
the C^vll Service Law authorized
reinstatement from preferred lists
to similar positions only. The eligible petitioned the courts for relief. The justice a t Special Term
ordered the ^eligible reinstated,
holding t h a t the Civil Service Department's interpretation of the
law's requirement of similarity of
position was too strict. The a t t i tude of this judge was summed up
in these words:
Ruling of Lower Court
"It is true t h a t the petitioner's
former position involved specialization in public service law. The
position which he seeks deals in
the main with tax law. Both positions, however, call for the skill
of a lawyer. The petitioner, having
for many years practiced his profession, must be deemed to possess
such skill."
But the matter did not rest
here. The decision of the lower
court was appealed to t h e Appellate Division. I n a recent decision.
In which the justices divided 3 to 2
In their opinion, the order of the
lower court was reversed. T h e
majority of the higher court held
that the action of the State Civil
Service Department in refusing to
certify the preferred eligible to
the Tax £>epartment was not Improper as a matter of law and,
therefore, should not be upset by
the courts. T h e opinion for reversal stated:

State Assn, Suggests Interest Rate

ALBANY—Reduction In Interest rates charged on loans from the
State Retirement Fund has been advocated by the Association of
State Civil Service Employees. This Is part of the Association's
over-all plan for revamping of the Retirement System.
At the present time the Retirement Law requires a n interest

17 Croups Combine to Urge 5 and 10 Pt,
Credit to Vets on Civil Serviee Tests
Seventeen organizations last week combined in an attack upon
the present veteran preference proposal which comes before the
State Legislature this year. The group, cooperating as the "Citizens
Committee on Veteran Preference," offered its own counter-proposals.
The seventeen organizations do not oppose veteran preference; they
claim merely t h a t the Hampton-Devaney amendment, which last
year passed the State Legislature and must now again come before

Central Heating Saves
Money for Community
Escanaba's city council is considering a plan which, if adopted,
will make the Michigan community the second city in t h e n a tion to heat all of its homes,
stores, schools and churches f r o m
one central heating plant. It is
a plan which may well be followed with interest by other
cities.
T h e Michigan city of 15,000
population already h a s m a d e a
start in this direction, constructing a small central heating plant
in 1937 to serve a limited n u m ber of customers in the downtown area, the International City
Managers Association reports.
Local interest in the municipal
service led the city council r e cently to ask for a survey and
recommendations by t h e city
manager with regard to expansion of the central heating system to include t h e entire community.
Virginia, Minn., early this year
became the first city in the
country to go on complete central
heating, using a municipallyowned heating plant operated on
a non-profit basis.
The Costs
T h e Escanaba survey showed
t h a t community-wide heating by
the central unit was feasible from
economic and engineering s t a n d poinis, and t h a t such a system
could meet operating and m a i n tenance costs, taxes and depreciation. To supply t h e entire
system with heat would require
a capital outlay of $3,190,000,
about a third of this amount for
plant and two thirds for distributing mains.
The Savings
Operating costs for the enlarged system are estimated a t
$240,000 yearly compared to present expenditures of about $30Q,000 by individuals and private
conceriis for coal for individual

heating units. Annual revenue
f r o m steam at 78 cents per 1,000
pounds and sale of electricity
generated by t h e steam turbines
would total $531,000, but t h e net
profit would be small because
a n n u a l capital costs-^taxes, depreciation and interest on investments—total more t h a n $240,000.
Capital costs would be reduced
materially if t h e project is f i nanced in p a r t by special assessment.
Unfavorable Factor
Most unfavorable f a c t o r in
carrying out t h e plan
t h e high
initial cost of t h e underground
system plus t h e cost of converting individual heating equipment
to steam heating which would
range f r o m $200 to $500 per
dwelling unit.
Recommendations to t h e city
council were t h a t t h e present
plant be extended up to a capacity of 50,000 pounds of steam
per hour on a pay-as-you-go
basis sufficient to serve t h e
downtown area; t h a t plans be
made a n d a n assessment and f i nancial policy be established to
enable the city to expand t h e
plant as rapidly as economic conditions make subsidies available;
t h a t no expansion be made beyond t h e downtown area unless
at least 80 per cent of t h e consumers in the area to be served
agree to convert their heating
systems and purchase h e a t f r o m
the central municipal system.
Herbert A. Friede, S u p e r i n t e n dent of Fire Alarm Headquarters,
District of Columbia, h a s f o u n d
f r o m experience t h a t firemen
can't always rely on messages
coming in by telephone. " W h e n

So Supt. Priede recommends a

Friede reports.
He described i t :
