General Bradley's Column Health Pleads for $1,440 By Brigadier General John J. Bradley Lots of Well-Foying Jobs Due To Open Up In New State Veterans Agency Edward J . Neary, who resigned as Nassau County District Attorney t o accept a p p o i n t m e n t by Qovernor Dewey aa h e a d of t h e S t a t e veterans' affairs commission, will pass m u c h of his time in New York City. According to persons close to Commissioner Neary he will establish h e a d q u a r t e r s both in New York a n d in Albany and will do much traveling throughout t h e S t a t e on veteran affairs. Commissioner Neary, who will e a r n $12,000 a year, heads a vast network of S t a t e a n d local veteran agency offices a n d facilities t h a t will r e quire a personnel running into h u n d r e d s of jobs. Under the Condon law creating t h e Veterans Affairs Commission, no mention is made of civil service status of any of t h e employees to be ^ • • • ( • • H appointed. I t is regarded here as probable t h a t t h e nucleus of the headquarters' staff will be made up of employees of the present S t a t e Civilian tection Office. This agency is due to fold up by July 1 with the probability t h a t m a n y of its employees, including possibly Edward C. O. Thomas, a veteran, a n d h e a d of civilian protection, will be transferred to the new veteran organization. Appointment Due One of Commissioner Neary's first steps will be t h e appointment of 67 county counsellors who will be on t h e S t a t e payroll at salaries t h a t may range up to $5,000 each. They are to be trained, after appointment, in t h e work of veteran rehabilitation and agency administration before being assigned to the various counties. There will be appointed also a director of t h e S t a t e Veterans' Service Agency, probably at $10,000 a year, plus numerous deputy directors and heads of regional offices a t salaries of $3,500 to $6,000 each, it is expected. I n addition to the scores of well-paying state jobs available in the new veteran aid organization there will be hundreds in the local city, county, town and village veteran agencies to be created. Veterans already are d e m a n d ing t h a t all jobs in the state-local veteran offices be filled by veterans. There are now in the state 112 of these local city and county veteran offices, created by the joint guidance of the office of state civilian protection and the temporary veterans commission, which will be superseded by the new, p e r m a n e n t organization of which Commissioner Neary is the head. The Setup Under the new law every county must have a veteran service agency a n d every city may have Clerk Minimum (Ret.) one. Each will have a director appointed by t h e board of supervisors in t h e counties and by the mayor in cities. Towns and villages can have their veteran agencies, too. Each locality can have as large or as small an office and as m a n y as the local governing power sees fit. All the salaries would be fixed locally also a n d t h e cost of city, county, town, and village agencies would be paid by local taxpayers. T h e 67 state-paid counsellors who will be appointed and trained will work in t h e counties by way of aiding the localities in organizing and administering thei- local agency offices. They will not themselves actually rim the local agencies, but act r a t h e r as cont a c t - m e n between the Albany a n d New York City headquarters of the state staff and the regional state offices t h a t may be set up. All t h e jobs on the s t a f f s of t h e local agencies, and there may be hundreds of them, will be local patronage, but going to veterans, the veterans hope. I n addition to providing t h e top level of administration and guidance a t state expense, the State is permitted to extend some financial help to t h e cities a n d counties. T h e new law provides the S t a t e may contribute up to $C,000 a year for each county a n d each city veterans' agency for maintenance a n d operation. This doesn't mean t h a t each would get the entire $5,000 because t h e bounty probably will be on a 50 percent basis. For Instance, where the local expense is $5,000 a year, t h e city or county might get $2,500, more or less. If the cost is $10,000 or more the maximum $5,000 g r a n t may be allowed.. W h e n it comes to finding jobs for veterans, the state-local veteran organization, once organized and going, should provide plenty of opportunities. T h e Finance Committee of the City Council—which h a s the power to cut Items In t h e City Budget, buti not to increase any appropriations — called Health D e p a r t m e n t officials down to their c h a m b e r last week, a n d heard a plea not to do .ly slicing f r o m personnel appropi;iations. Dr. P r a n k A. Calderohe, acting Commissioner, explained t h a t t h e large number of vacancies was due t o t h e difficulty in finding trained help under wartime conditions. He indicated t h a t t h e D e p a r t m e n t expected the new clerical m i n i m u m of $1,440 would aid in recruiting office workers. "Some employees," said Calderone, "have already taken jobs at $1,200 in anticipation of t h e increase to $1,440 on July 1, but it is virtually impossible to fill vacancies a t $1,200." Health Institute Councilman Louis Cohen questioned Health officials on the Public Health Research Institute, which Is carried in t h e d e p a r t mental budget a t $100,000 for 1945-6, but was advised t h a t the Health Department h a s no control over these funds. Mr. Cohen was advised to ask Comptroller McGoldrIck, who is a member of the -Board of Directors of the Research Institute along with Commissioner Stebbins of Health (now on military leave), a n d Reuben Lazarus, member of the Board of Education a n d counsel to the NYC Board of Statutory Consolidation. Housing Men Can Subway Foremen Promotion Date Earn More If They Pass Exam Straightened Out One perennial problem in the NYC Department of Housing a n d Buildings is nearing solution. For years, the department h a s been requesting an improvement in salr.xy for the inspectors who have previously been classified as Grade 2 employees (maximum $1,801 a year). I n this year's budget (1945-1946), t h e classification of these m e n is lifted to gr- ' " 3—top $2,401 a year. However, t h e c h a n g e provides t h a t the men must qualify for t h e Increase by passing a promotion £x?.irhiation to t h e higher grade, anfi +bny are waiting to see what' kind of examination t h e Municipal Civil Service Commission will 1. Most of t h e men feel t h a t a simple qualifying test would be sufficient to meet lite desires of the department for a general upwards revision of their salaries. About 75 inspectors will have t h e chance to try for the higher salary. Dept. W a n t s More for Boiler Men Another group of men for whom the D e p a r t m e n t is still negotiating with t h e Budget Bu> • ihe Boiler Iiispectors. At present, they are receiving salaries of from $2,401 to $2,580. Most of those who came into the department in t h e last ten years are at the lower salary. T h e Dep a r t m e n t agrees with the contention of the m e n t h a t otlier Cities generally pay a minimum of $3,000 a year a year to men performing similar duties a n d is a t t e m p t ing to arrange a pay raise for tiiem. There are U Boiler I n spectors ii\ Housing and Buildings. T h e date on which the recent reclassification of assistant foremen (cars a n d shops) in t h e NYC Transit System became effective was finally established by the Municipal Civil Service Commission last week. The Commission decided: " T h e effective reclassification date of persons affected by this resolution is July 1, 1944, but t h e change in compensation f r o m a n hourly r a t e to the a n n u a l r a t e specified in the resolution of classification is effective f r o m March 1. 1945." Here's how the confusion in dates s t a r t e d : I n a resolution dated J u n e 9, 1944, the Board of Transportation requested the elimination of t h e title of assistant f o r e m a n (cars and shops) and t h a t the titles of all incumbents in the position be changed to foreman (cars a n d shops) a n d t h a t their hourly rates be changed to per a n n u m rates. These changes were to be made on July 1, 1944. T h e Civil Service Commission, accordingly, d r a f t e d a resolution to this effect. This resolution was a t first disapproved, and later a p proved on re-submlsslon by the State Civil Service Commission on February 2, 1945. T h e Board of T r a r ^ o r t a t l o n was notified of the 6 t a t e Commission's approval. Then, instead of complying with the terms of the resolution as approved by the S t a t e Commission, t h e Board of T r a n s portation adopted a resolution making the effective date for these changes March 1, 1945, instead of July 1. 1944. So, to fix matters, the City Civil Service Commission dated the change back to July. Recent NY State Eligible Lists Chief Bur. Home ErononilrH, Education Dept., Open-Conip. I^wis.
