Pag« Two IT. S. NEWS < > a m SERVICE LEADER Order Saves Status Of Classified Staff In W a r Agencies Special to The LEADER W A S H I N G T O N , Aug. 7 — F e d e r a l t r a n s f e r e e s to war service appointments, who had a permanent status, or who were serving a probational period of employirfent, received assurances of the protection of th eir status in Departmental Circular 533, issued today to the heads of departments and independent establishments. There must have been no break in service of 30 days or more, if the safeguard is to apply. No WorkNo Overtime On Saturday By ROGER BELSAM What is the authority for saying that no overtime will be paid for Saturday when one is on annual leave, hence isn"t at work on Saturday? The Pay Act of ,1945 does not specify what shall be the decision on this point, but President T r u man has requested t h a t Mondaythrough-Friday shall be the basic work week. The U. S. Civil Service Commission, following decisions of the Attorney-General, has issued departmental circulars in which this is answered. Administrative descretion is left to department and agency heads, but it is expected t h a t the U. S. CSC method will be generally followed especially as President T r u m a n has approved: no overtime for Saturday unless you work on Saturday. If on leave status, but absent Saturday, that day is then a day off without pay, and without charge against annual or sick leave. Employees are "no longer to be regarded as being paid for all days in the calendar year, including Sundays" (Departmental Circular No. 531, U. S. C.S.C). Monday—through—Friday must be worked, or accounted for by leave or other paid status, before the 40 basic workweek hours accrue, and only after such accrual does overtime apply to Saturday work. The no-work-no-overtimepay rule is found in the discussion of Sec. 402 of the new law, under regulations of the U. S. CSC approved by President Truman in an executive order. In Chap. I, P a r t 2,of the regulations is found the following: "The c o m p u t a t i o n of the amount of overtime employment of an officer or employee shall be subject to the following conditions: "Absence f r o m duty on authorized leave with pay during the time when an employee would otherwise have been required to be on duty during the basic workweeks' does not carry overtime pay. Appointments, transfers, promotions and reassignments are covered, but only for classified employees. No tenure is acquired by original war-service appointees. The probationers are those who were originally appointed from classified registers and did not complete the one-year probation period prior to transfer to a war agency. They, too, acquire tenure. Text of Circular The official circular, signed by L. A. Moyer, Executive Director and Chief Examiner, sets forth that the Commission "has determined" the following: "1. A person who formerly served under a permanent or probational civil service appointment and who was appointed or reappointed under the war service regulations, after a break-inservice of 30 or more working days; has war service tenure. His appointment, like t h a t of a person originally appointed under war service regulations, will terminate not later t h a n six months after the war, unless legally extended. "2. An employee serving under a permanent civil service appointment has not lost his permanent tenure in £he agency by virtue of promotion or reassignment within the agency during the period while the war service regulations are in effect. "3. A Federal agency may administratively place a time limitation on the promotion or reassignment of a permanent civil service employee. This time limitation may be for a definite or indefinite period, including a limitation based on the return of a specific person with military, transfer, or other legal reemployment rights. This time limitation of itself will not affect the employee's permanent tenure in the agency. Protection Assured "4. A person who was transferred to an agency under war service regulations from a permanent or probational civil service appointment in another agency or who was appointed or reappointed under the war service regulations within less t h a n 30 days a f t e r leaving a permanent or probational civil service appointment, has permanent tenure in the agency to which so transferred or appointed—that is, an appointment without time limitaiton. This means t h a t any f u r t h e r transfer, either back to the agency where he originally had a permanent or probational appointment, or to any other agency, may be made without detracting from his permanent tenure, whether or not the further transfer is made Tuesday,' August 7, 1945 Doings at ODB Preparations are under way at the War Department Office of Dependency Benefits in Newark, N. J., for a War Fronts Show- a display of several hundreds war trophies and relics of battle, sent to members of the ODB personnel by sons or relatives as mementos of their wartime experiences. Plans for the display were announced today by Brig. Gen. H. N. Gilbert, USA. The exhibit is scheduled to open on August 14 and will continue through August 18. J. A. Reilly to D. C. James A. Reilly, Chief Clerk of the Plans and Training Branch of ODB, returned to Washington, D. C., to join the staff of the Division of Management Planning of the State Department. As one of the key civilian employees of the ODB, Mr. Reilly has seen t h a t agency grow from the single branch which authorized the first 36,000 family allowance payments in September, 1942 to the Army-wide organization which since has disbursed over ten billion dollars in over 178 million checks. First Retirement With the completion of thirty years of federal service. Miss R u t h Armstrong, of Kensington, Md., retired. Miss Armstrong is the first of ODB's 9,000 employes to retire in accordance with the Civil Service Retirement Act of May, 1930. At a reception in her honor, held in the ODB's club lounges. General Gilbert presented her with a specially designed citation of service. Lt. Col. Howard M. Nelson, chief of the ODB's Class E Allotment Division, also praised her work. During 28 of her 30 years' service Miss Armstrong was connected with the War Department, where she has assisted in administering Class E allotmentsof-pay. At the ODB she h a s been section chief of an administrative section of the Class E Allotment Division. Miss Armstrong will return to Washington, D.

Workers Rose 17,813 in June S p e c i a l to T h e L E A D E R LAWSON A. W A S H I N G T O N , Aug. 7 — T h e U. S. Civil Service Commission reported today that the total paid Federal employment in continental United States totaled 2,915,472 at the end of June, an increase of 17,813 during the month. The seasonal increase in temporary employment more than offset decreases in regular full-time and parttime employment. MOYER under the war service regulations, provided there is no break jn service of 30 days or more. It is therefore possible for a transfer to be negotiated for the return of a war service transferee back to the agency where he originally had a permanent or probational appointment, whenever such retransfer is in the public interest and is agreeable to the employee. However, no employee serving under a war service transfer with reemployment rights back to another agency may be involuntarily separated for the purpose of exercising such reemployment rights until he is reached for action in a reduction in force in accordance with the provisions of the retention preference regulations. "5. Paragraph (1) above provides that certain employees with civil service status have war service tenure—that is, appointments which, unless legally extended, will terminate not later t h a n six months after the end of the war. I t is the intention of the Commission to permit at the appropriate time the conversion of the appointments, upon official rerequest, of such persons to permanent civil service appointments, provided tiie requirements of the civil service rules are met. 1 War Service Appointees Inquire How to Have Jobs Made Permanent The total number of paid employees outside the continental limits of the United States was approximately 659,200 on J u n e 30. I n addition there were 331,048 uncompensated employees a t the end of June, an increase of 5,545 over the 325,503 reported at the end of May. The number of women fulltime employees at the end of June was 1,078,886. More t h a n two-thirds of the total increase in full-time employment occurred in the women full-* time group. There were 1,644,330 men full-time employees at the end of June. Our fighting men need more than mail. Your blood—given at a Red Cross Blood Bank—goes overseas to the front lines.

It is all very speculative at this stage. Action After the War The U. S. Civil Service Commission has indicated that after the war with J a p a n is over it will take some action in regard to the future of war service appointees. Manwhile such employees are subject to separation from the service as the need for their employment disappears. However, the "end of the war," it is held, does not necessarily coincide with the time that hostilities end, but, as in the case of World War I, may extend some years beyond. The final peace set tlement would be the deciding factor. In the prior instance the gap was four years. As to the argument by duration employees t h a t they are frozen to their jobs but their jobs are not frozen to them, the answer is given t h a t the Government feels t h a t its interests come before those of the individual, just as is the attitude toward members of the armed forces. The cushion, however, would be provided by any unemployment benefits to be enacted by Congress, somewhat comparable to mustering-out pay and other benefits under the G.I. Bill of Rights for members of the armed forces. FURS— REPAIRING ALL FURS MADE TO ORDER O N PREMISES. FROM *89.50 UP CHARLES VOYAGES Manufacturing 51 Chambers Sf.

The Commission has just ruled that these persons large number of individual bills are eligible for special military examinations, which will be held soon introduced by Council members at Meanwhile the Commission is scanning the list of those who took the first part of the tests and t h e n did not show up for t h e second. Letters will be sent out advising such candidates of their rights to a special test if they missed the physical part because of military duty and are now veterans with an honorable discharge. Eight Veterans Put on Promotion Eligible Lists Appointments To NYC Jobs the request of employee organizations were withdrawn. T h e Committee today approved the bills, which will now go before the full Council for a vote. It is expected t h a t the Council will pass the measures, but t h e n a p proval by the Board of Estimate and t h e Mayor is necessary. E m ployee spokesmen at the hearing expressed fear t h a t Mayor La Guardia would veto the bills if they were passed by the Board. A sidelight at t h e public hearing was t h e effort of both the Civil Service Forum and t h e State, County and Municipal Workers of America, (CIO) to claim credit for the bills. T h e CIO group h a d issued circulars claiming t h e bill? as their own. F o r u m representa tives cited a letter from Council m a n H a r t giving them creditCouncilman H a r t told The LEADER t h a t the original plan had been to introduce t h e bills by the " m a j o r i t y " in order to avoid their use as political m a t e r ial by Councilmen seeking reelection. Then, h e said, circulars had been distributed by the CIO urging votes for certain candidates as " f r i e n d s of civil service" because they h a d sponsored t h e legislation. This, he felt, violated t h e agreement under which he h a d withdrawn his own legislation for the same purpose, so he gave the F o r u m credit. Transportation Jobs Due to Stay Competitive For once, all employee o r g a n i z a tions of t h e NYC Board of T r a n s portation—the Transport Workers Union a n d the AFL a n d Civil Service Forum groups — were agreed. At a hearing before the Municipal Civil Service Commission, all three opposed the proposed reclassification of top-grade transit jobs from the competitive to the non-competitive class. E m ployee spokesmen said there was no valid reason why the change should be made. Only speaker on behalf of the change was J o h n Lalfan, Board personnel clerk. The reclassification, if adopted, would not affect present incumbents. But in the event of vacancies, it would be possible for the Board of Transportation to a p point picked candidates after a simple qualifying examination by the Civil Service Commission. Reason for Opposition Employees opposed this on the ground t h a t the top-bracket jobs, should remain competitive, to be filled by advancement from the ranks, or through open-competitive examinations. Following the hearing, the Commission reserved action. However, it is expected t h a t the proposal will be dropped. Among the jobs included in the proposed change were Superintendent, $3,001 to $10,000 a year; Assistant General Superintendent, $10,001 to $15,000; General S u perintendent, $15,001 and over.

For years, a group of militant PBA members have been lighting for the right to vote for their officers, instead of t h e archaic "delegate" system, under which PBA top-men are handpicked by the precinct delegates. However, under the PBA constitution, the only way in which the isystem could be changed is by t h e delegates voting their powers away—and that isn't likely to happen.

Acting in accordance with permission granted by Council legislation, the Board of Trustees of the New York Fire Department Life Insurance Fund today upped the cost of the $2,000 life policy to $3 a month. Officers and men, including retired members of the force, are members of the Fund. Previously, all members of t h e Department were charged $2 a month for the insurance protection, but increases in the number of death claims paid last year has reduced the reserve and made the increase in rate necessary. From January 1, 1945, to June 30, 1945, $233,908 was paid out in insurance claims. The fund has been attacked by members of the department, notably Frank Mott in his successful campaign for election as treasurer of the Uniformed Firemen"s Association, as being actuarially unsound. Mr. Mott contended that the Firemen could purchase insurance from private companies at a lower rate. Another cause of resentment is the t a c t that members of the liquidating officers' insurance groups still maintain their seats on the Board which administers the Fund and passed the increases. However, membership in the fund is not optional. Fire Department regulations provides that the insurance payments are deducted from pay checks and pension checks each pay day.

New York Teachers' Gruild, Local No. 2. Laborers Lured By Ritzy Titles What's in a name? Much more t h a n the poet imagines. The Post Office Department had trouble recruiting m e n as Laborers, so the name of the job was changed to Mail H a n dlers, and job applicants increased in number. Some shipyards changed the title from Laborer to Material Handler and also found it easier to get help. Other shipyards changed the title from Laborer to Yardman and that helped. Some laborers were assigned to help third-grade mechanics. Their title was changed from Laborer to Improver and the number of applicants imjjroved. ^ SUITS M E N ' S F I N E SPORT COATS • SLACKS Tremendous Savings Crown Clothing Co. 1095 Amsterdam Ave. (cor. 1 4 4 t h St.) N.

In this case, t h e State's highest court ruled t h a t neither the Mayor, the Board of Estimate, nor any Commissioner could forbid an employee from holding an outside job. So, if any commissioner, or any other official, threatens or dismisses an e m ployee. for holding an outside spare-time job, a question arises. Briefly the history of the Natilson case is this: On M a r c h 14, 1938, the Board of Estimate of New York City adopted the following resolution: "No f u n d s of t h e City of New York herein appropriated shall be used for payment o* wages or salary of any employee in the Department of Welfare, Emergency Relief Bureau or any other department or bureau who does not give his whole time to his duties, and no employee shall be eligible t o receive compensation f r o m these f u n d s who is engaged in any other occupation, business or employment." This resolution was based upon t h a t provision in t h e New York City Charter (Section 881) which reads: "every head of a department or elected officer except councilmen who receives a salary f r o m the city should give his whole time to his duties and shall not ^ngage in any other occupation, profession or employment." "No" in 1938 On the heels of this resolution t h e Commissioner of Welfare issued Executive Order 38-53 notif y i n g t h e staff of the resolution. T h e r e a f t e r , t h e Mayor on May 28, 1938 issued a ruling to t h e heads of all d e p a r t m e n t s directing t h a t t h e employees in each d e p a r t m e n t and bureau t h a t it was contrary to the policy of the administration f j r civil service and other employees of the city to accept private employment. Informational Bulletin 39-145 was issued by the Commissioner of Welfare to the staff. I t repeated t h a t it was not permissible for department employees to perform private employment whether during or outside working hours, a t home or any other place and t h a t dismissal was the only alternative to failure to observe these rules. On J a n u a r y 2, 1941, Mortimer M. Natilson, a social investigator, was accused of having worked outside office hour's, evenings, at a New York department store. There was nc dispute t h a t he worked. He admitted t h a t he worked. There was no claim t h a t the work had interfered with his civil service duties. He h a d not been absent for illness or business reasons during the period. He was dismissed after hearing on J a n u ary 18, 1941. The Court Fight The lower court denied his petition for reinstatement. T h e Appellate Division reversed this denial and ordered his reinstatement' The Court examined t h e City Charter of 1936 and found nothing therein vesting power in t h e Mayor to remove Civil Service employees for the reasons given; nor did it find any g r a n t to either t h e Mayor or t h e Board of Estimate to make Civil Service rules, examined the powers of t h e Commissioners; it found t h a t they m a k e reasonable rules for t h e e f - N. Y. CITY NEWS Ambulance Men Voice Grievance fective conduct of their d e p a r t ments, but t h a t such rules must relate to the administration. Questions of security of tenure and terms and conditions of employment are not m a t t e r s left to commissioners to determine; these are legislative in n a t u r e and are beyond t h e scope of any implied powers of the commissioners. All justices concurred in t h e opinion, but Martin, Presiding Justice, wrote a separate opinion as follows (35 N. Y. Supp. 2d 537, at page 540): "The object may be a salutary, but must be obtained by legislation. . . ." T h e City took the case to the Court of Appeals, b u t lost again. T h e highest court upheld Natilson, and he was reinstated to his position in t h e Welfare Department. Recently the dismissal of Firemen, followed m o n t h s later by some reinstatement, was based on "departmental rules" and "public security." This phase is still u n settled. But some other Commts- I sioners, and practically all t h e , Borough Presidents, permit n o n interferring outside jobs. Suit Discussed Over Fire Chiefs Page Five Ambulance drivers for the 23 municipal hospitals complained today t h a t other employees get holidays off, but not they. A group of the drivers organized a local of t h e American F e d eration of State, County and Municipal Employees in zn a t t e m p t to get holiday time-off, or pay for working on holidays, and back pay for all t h e holiday time they've worked. Ellis R a n e n , eastern representative of the AFSCME, will negotiate with City officials. More t h a n 200 drivers are involved, h e says, and in some cases the bill for holiday time over t h e years comes to more t h a n $500.

CIRCULATIONS 1945 A Fire Wife passed her h u s b a n d in the street the other afternoon and didn't even bid him the time of the day. Fellow firemen said t h a t she h a d n ' t seen him so long, due to t h e two-platoon system, t h a t she didn't recognize him. Dismissal Minus a Hearing HE dismissal of Paul L. Ross, Regional Enforcement Officer of the OPA in the New York area, after an opportunity to reply in writing to charges, but without any opportunity of a hearing, is of particular interest to civil service employees, because he was appointed pursuant to Federal civil service. So indeed was his superior, Daniel P. Woolley, the Regional Administrator. The fact that Mr. Woolley, who discharged him, subsequently resigned does not change in any way the nature of the problem. The problem is whether a public employee against whom charges have been preferred that reflect upon his competence should be subject to dismissal without a hearing, the right to call and even cross-examine witnesses. In the City and the State service the right to a hearing and its attendant advantages are reserved to veterans, an indication that the Legislature saw merit in protecting at least a class of employees from possibly capricious discharge. The details of the accusations against Mr. Ross by Mr. Woolley,. and the counter-charges against Mr. Woolley by Mr. Ross have not been made public, so if Mr. Woolley acted justly- the public cannot know. When men are so prominent the need of better protection for civil service employees is pointed up, without reflecting in any way on Mr. Woolley or Mr. Ross. T Comment, Please Headers should address letters lo Editor. The 97 Dunne Street, Neiv York 7, /V. Y. Training to Begin at the Top Editor, The LEADER: Assemblyman Van Duzer's proposal for in-service training for State employees is a move in the right direction. However, his idea is not broad enough. The greatest waste in civil service is not because of poor training of employees, but from lack of skill by supervisors in handling people. Of course, we want training for promotion, but promotions are few. Higher morale among employees, consequently greater production or more effective service, can be more easily attained by bosses trained to give credit where credit is due, to criticize tactfully and constructively, and to say "Good morning" with a smile. Men do not live by bread alone. It is the little things t h a t count more t h a n some vague hope of promotion. It has been my experience t h a t fciost supervisors in State departments have attained their positions because they were good workers or passed high on examinations. Little attention was given to their qualifications of leadership. All too many have people working for them, not with them. Few have the ability to inspire their staff. Yet the knack can be acquired by training. Training of State employees needs to start at the top, rather t h a n at t h e bottom. Attendance, a t classes in psychology and methods of supervision should be made compulsory for all bosses. A tremendous improvement in efficiency will result from the better h u m a n relations t h a t will follow. UNDERDOG.

Cites Bonus Anomaly Editor, The LEADER: In answer to letter from a NYC clerk, Grade 3, in protest of the bonus as at present set up not benefiting all employees, I wish also to go even f u r t h e r and show how unfairly it will work. I was promoted to Clerk, Grade 3, J a n u a r y 1, 1945, at $1,801 ($2,040) and do not get my first increment until J a n u a r y , 1946. However, a Second Grade Clerk at ihe top of his grade ($1,800) got this bonus July 1. This same Second Grade Clerk is, however, high up on the list for Clerk, Grade 3, he would start the new grade at $6,860 and would be ahead of those who were ahead of him on the list for Clerk, Grade 3. This condition would apply to all those Grade 3 Clerks who were appointed last J a n u a r y 1. As this is a n unusual circumstance I am sure if this particular instance is brought to the a t t e n tion of the Budget Director this oversight would be corrected. CLERK, GRADE 3.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Tuesday, August 7, 1945 STATE NEWS Page Seven Educational Campaign Is Aimed to Prevent Unlimited Preference The State Employee By CLIFFORD C. SHORO State Ass'n Wants Civil Service Department to Act—Hollister Sassy President, The Association of State Civil Service Employees In writing "The Slate Employee" as a regular weekly feature of The LEADER, Clifford C. Shoro discusses all and any matters of interest to employees of the State of New York. He is writing this column with complete leeway to express his own views. "The Greatest Age in the History of Mankind" President T r u m a n radiates enthusiasm for unselfish, constructive action. I n his recent address in which h e spoke as above of t h e f u t u r e , h e pleaded for the opportunity of men and women on all levels to enjoy t h e good things of life. He t h u s expresses the ambition of workers everywhere. We of the State civil service are putting our best into the building of a continuously better service to the people. Frequently we are misunderstood. Selfish people will not believe t h a t a workers' organization is unselfish. They think t h a t it is all a m a t t e r of asking for more and more in t h e way of salaries and the like. They are stupid enough to feel t h a t a workers' organization is so self-centered t h a t it is not interested in the employer and does not wish to cooperate actively with t h e aims of society to advance their own efficiency and well-being. This # Association has refuted such falsehoods for more t h a n thirty years. I t h a s taken positive action on innumerable laws t h a t j have for their sole purpose the better carrying out of public activities enrusted to the S t a t e by the people. ^The merit system provision in the State Constitution and t h e merit system laws on our statute books are primarily dedicated to economy and to efficiency of service. They were not inspired by any labor union or worker group; they were demanded by t h e people as an essential need to honest, efficient public service. The Association h a s constantly striven to uphold the merit system laws, regardless of the effect upon this or t h a t gr$up of employees. T h e Association knows t h a t when d e p a r t m e n t a l and institutional and all the other State activities are wisely a n d efficiently handled, t h a t it is because men and women of character and fitness, as called for under t h e merit system, are doing t h e work of the State. T h e merit system calls for t h e rejection of t h e incapable and t h e unfit and their removal from the service. The Association has always urged this. We Must Have Efficiency Hagerty Is In Director Job at Last Scoring But no one is so simple as to believe t h a t a carefully administered plan of employee instruction, guidance and regular efficiency check, is not necessary to the m a x i m u m of good work in each d e p a r t m e n t and institution. A current evaluation of the capacity and industry of each worker is desired by the worker. This must be a fair, intelligent analysis of t h e employee and free f r o m arbitrariness a n d capriciousness. T h e worker knows t h a t only when his services are evaluated without prejudice, without carelessness, without whim or vagary, can he hope to win promotions. T h e workers' organization knows t h a t only when there is a true check upon t h e efficiency of all e m ployees can it properly present claims for higher wages or improved working conditions. For Sound Personnel Plans I have mentioned these things which the Association so vigorously advances because of ridiculous anonymous suggestions t h a t have come to me t h a t we do not stand first of all for good service to t h e people in the institutions and in all agencies of S t a t e governm e n t . These are difficult times in the institutions and it is because they are difficult and because employees are overworked and a r e trying in every way to m a i n t a i n t h e best of care for the insane a n d t h e ill( cared for by t h e State, t h a t we are more t h a n ever solicitous t h a t personnel administration in each institution should function a t its best and be free from s n a p judgments, recriminations, loose supervisions, prejudices and common bullying of workers. T h e employees are cooperative. We want each department a n d institution head a n d his administrative staff to be cooperative as well. They owe this to their employer, the State, jusfr as employees owe their best service to their employer, also the State. Ways to Cooperate The ways to cooperate are not h a r d to practice except for those egotists who consider themselves to be supermen and who do not believe t h a t the employee h a s rights or understanding. Obviously the first step toward effective cooperation is the establishment of a civil service personnel officer and a n active personnel board composed of officers and employees in every institution a n d d e p a r t m e n t . F u r t h e r delay in effectuating known, sound personnel supervision systems in every agency of State government is indefensible. I t would be just as indefensible to establish such agencies without fair representation to the employee body upon t h e personnel board. A Big Job State employees in common with other workers are anxious about post-war salary ranges. T h e war emergency payments of 10 to 20 per cent are dependent upon year-to-year legislation. With living costs almost certain to continue for some time a f t e r t h e war as high, if not higher, t h a n at present, attention to t h e a d j u s t m e n t of permanent scales to higher leveb is a large MUST for t h e Salary Standaidization Board. If the legislature had accepted or will accept t h e Association's proposal for a cost-of-living, or real wage-dollar, emergency scale, added to the basic scales, and going up or down above basic scales with known living costs, haste in dealing with a d j u s t m e n t s in basic salary structures would not be so pressing. T h e present basic salary rates were established very largely in 1937. T h a t they should be the object of complete and thorough reconsideration a f t e r eight years of mighty economic and social changes seems very clear to S t a t e employees. W h a t plans has the Salary Standardization Board made to meet the need? W h a t are t h e plans of the Salary Board for meeting the plea of the women guards in S t a t e prisons for women for the same salaries as paid to male guards? W h a t is the Board planning to do about reviewing the many salary scales questioned by employees, in the light of new schedules written into Section 40 last winter? We are asking the Board to tell employees about plans which are of such vital interest to every citizen of the State.

He explained t h a t Mr. TompJtins entered military service in April, 1944, and Clement Doyle took over the post as a duration appointee.

Mr. Tompkins, it now appeared, was one of three persons being considered for the job. He went back to New York State. Finally the news of his nomination reached him.

It added that, in the present situation, "full employment depends largely on the skillful handling of war controls, on business ingenuity, and on t h e effectiveness with which job seekers and job opportunities are brought together."

However, how well and extensively industry reconverts is the most i m p o r t a n t cushion. A Federal unemployment pay bill, yet to be voted, and Congress is in recess until October 8, is regarded as an important palliative only. A steady job is what counts most.

Tuesday, August 7, 1945 General Bradley's Column By Brigadier General John J, Bradley Post-War Cost of Veteran Benefits Estimated at 4 Billion a Year (Ret,) j k STUDY of the revised Federal budget revealed today that the * * cost of veteran benefits would be at the rate of at least $4,000,000,000 a year for a year and a half to two years. Then there is expected to be a decline to somewhat under $3,000,000,000 a year for a decade. Harold D. Smith, the Budget Director, made public the upward-revised budget for the year ending next June 30.
