Y. S t a t e and Northern New Jersey. T h e U. S. Civil Service Commission at 641 Washington Street issued a h u r r y call today for filling the 5-dayweek jobs as CPC-2 at $1,440. "Messengers get promoted f a s t er t h a n any other employees," said J a m e s E. Rossell, Director, Second Region. U.S.C.S.C. "Jobs are vacant in the Treasury, Army and Navy departments and elsewhere. Appointees will enter t h e Federal service to stay." T h e official announcement, listing duties and qualifications, will be issued this week. Ac first the jobs will be open to v e n e r i s only, but as it is expected that not enough veterans will apply in time to fill the needs, non-veterans will become eligible. A canvas of a 2-year period in t h e Social Security Branch shows t h a t the average Messenger got promoted in 60 days. Mr. Rossell himself has jobs for Messengers. He admitted it. More State News Pages 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, II, 14, IS. Commissioner Robert Moses of the NYC Parks D e p a r t m e n t recently received a letter ^rom Staff Sgt. Mussell, suggesting the use of trained seals as lifeguards a t city beaches and pools. Mr. Moses submitted the problem to his experts. Some opposed the project, others favored it. None of the replies was serious, however. Most of them posed civil service difficulties. Here is the correspondence m the Park Department's files: October 1, 1945 Municipal Civil Service Commission 299 Broadway New York, NY Dear Sirs: Here are some f u r t h e r comments from our recreation executives on Mr. Mussell's proposal to use seals as lifeguards, Cordially, ROBERT MOSES, Commissioner To: W. H. L a t h a m From: W. C. Donnelly Subject: Use of Trained Seals as Lifeguards The only remuneration a seal would expect would be fish. If the Lifeguard's pay is $5, would the seal work for a "fin" a day? There is an advantage in the fact t h a t the seals would be oblivious to the wiles of the b a t h ing beauties, but would they be able to withstand t h e lure of t h e mossbunker dredges off shore? If not, disciplinary steps might r e quire suspension, but how can this be done—by their tails? Aside f r o m the n a t u r a l h a z a r d s present in t h e discharge of their duties, would it be safe to post them in those sections of t h e beaches which are patronized by the f u r coat industry? It might be difficult for t h e m to raise t h e alarm as their vocal expression h a s a marked similarity of sound to the common language of t h e beaches. W. C. DONNELEY, Borough Director To William H. L a t h a m F r o m : George F. Niebling Since I have a little something to do- with training our lifeguards. I might be accused of bias in critizing Mr. Mussell's plan to train seals, but here are some items I think should be considered. 1. Since I've never seen a larger seal floating on his back holding up a h u m a n adult, I must let this pass. 2. The seal's ability to swim and stay under water is unimportant to us. T h a t ' s our great trouble now. Our victims stay under water too long as it is. 3. There is no one t h a t pan t a m e a lifeguard. If you once told t h e seals they were lifeguards, they would act just as h a m m y as our boys do now. 4. T h e r e is the question of suitable uniforms. Certainly, once a seal became a member of our d e p a r t m e n t he would have to cease swimming in his birthday suit. Trunks, at least, would be required. 5. Then there is the Civil Service Commission. They would want a written test and an oral a*id t h a t would be very difficult, although, maybe to the seals t h e tests they give would make sense. 6. Then there is the Budget Director. If we fed the seals too much, he'd grumble and t h e seals would get lazy. If we starved them, the Budget Director would be happy and the seals would eat the customers. 7. Our revenue would fall off Sharply. Can you imagine having one of our beach or pool beauties trying to d a t e up a seal? There are some good points about this' scheme. For instance, although t h e ticket racket is under control now, having seals would make it perfect. Even t h e most highly bred seals have no pockets in their f u r coats, so they would be easily spotted if they tried to peddle tickets.

CITY NEWS CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Tuesday, October 9, 1945 Page Three EXAMS RUSHED Permanent Bonus FOR OCT. FILING; 5 ARE OPEN TO PUBLIC Council to Vote A poll of the members of the Council, conducted today by The Leader, shows that the three local laws to make the bonus a permanent part of city employees' salaries will be adopted by a big margin. The bills, amended to include employees previously omitted, and to afford equality of benefit, are before the Council's Finance Committeetee. They are to be reported favorably. Committee hearings on the subject already have been held. The drive for making the bonus permanent gained great momentum at a mass meeting held under the auspices of the Uniformed Firemen's Association at Manh a t t a n Center. \n tive touch of color was lent by the members of the Fire Wives Association, led by their president, Mrs. Florence Graetz. Headed by President Captain Winford L. Beebe, a delegation of the Uniformed Fire Officers Association was present. Other civil service organizations indicated their support of the Firemen's objective. Among t h e leaders introduced f r o m t h e floor were Ellis Hanen, international representative of t h e American Federation of S t a t e County and Municipal Employees (AFL); and Secretary Raymond E. Diana of t h e Civil Service Forum. William Croft of the New York S t a t e Fire Fighters Association pledged the support of t h e State group to t h e city firemen's drive. I n his talk, President Crane of the UFA stressed as t h e conditions in the Fire D e p a r t m e n t which call for correction, the 84-hour week, high pension rates, abuse of t h e merit s y s t e m , the manpower shortage in the department, failure to settle the $400 pay differential claims and failure to obtain release of city firemen from the armed forces. After passage by the Council, the p e r m a n e n t bonus measures would go before the Board of Estimate, and finally, if passed by t h a t body, to the Mayor for his approval. In view of Judge Goldstein's sympathetic talk, many of the firemen at the meeting reasoned t h a t the bills would receive the vote of Comptroller McGoldrick, his running - mate. Most of the Borough Presidents are expected to vote for the measures. Particularly enthusiastic in their supportof the bills were Councilm e n Michael J. Quill, Anthony J. DiGiovanna, William A. Carroll and Peter V. Cacchione. Before a capacity audience, which overflowed into the balcony, candidates in the November election appeared before the firemen a n d their friends and families. GOLDSTEIN AND MORRIS SPEAK Judge J o n a h Goldstein, Republican, Liberal and City Fusion candidate for Mayor, said t h a t the plea of the fire fighters for a perm a n e n t increase of $420 would receive his "sympathetic consideration" if he is elected Mayor. His running mate for President of the City Council, Justice Nicholas M. Pette, definitely committed himself to work for passage of the p e r m a n e n t pay increase if h e were elected. Newbold M o r r i s , No - Deal mayoral candidate, in his speech, said: "I wish the City of New York h a d all the sovereign powers of a S t a t e and could raise money other t h a n by real estate taxes alone, and t h a t we could then institute a rise a n d fall of income according to the cost of living. "I don't believe t h a t city employees should receive the same r a t e regardless of living costs, but under present division of powers, you must go to Albany. I'd r a t h e r h a v e the UFA and the PBA go up t o Albany in one united cause, to give our city centralised responsibility over our affairs, so t h a t your representatives shall never again have to take t h e Empire Express. T h e city should be r u n f r o m City Hall- Under divided responsibility, nothing gets done. If elected, I intend to deal with these problems with your duly elected representatives in the best American tradition."

Three bills are now on the Council's agenda. One provides t h a t the $420 bonus shall become part of the regular salary of the members of the Fire D e p a r t m e n t from the Chief of Department down. Another provides similar t r e a t m e n t for the Police Department, down from Chieif Inspector to Probationary Patrolmen. A third bill covers all other m u nicipal employees a n d provides t h a t those who receive the bonus shall retain it; those who do not receive it shall be given a n a p propriate „ increase and sets a maximum of salary plus bonus of $4,999 a year for those to be covered. The third bill, like the others, amends the Administrative Code as follows: "§ B40-9.2. Salaries of city employees.—1. Every officer and employee of the city except members of the uniformed forces of the police and fire departments now receiving additional compensation over and above his regular salary in order t o meet the increased cost of living, the total of which does not exceed four thousand nine hundred a n d ninety-nine dollars per a n n u m , shall continue to receive as regular a n n u a l compensation the total a m o u n t of such regular salary and such additional O'DWYER COULDN'T GO compensation as he is now receivGeneral W i l l i a m O'Dwyer, ing.

What many NYC employees feel was an inequality in the distribution of t h e cost-of-living bonus h a s been cleared up, according to the Budget Bureau. Budget Director Thomas J. P a t terson h a s authorized the g r a n t ing of $60 a d j u s t m e n t s to employees who were penalized by the rule prohibiting duplication of bonus a n d increments Those employees who received a n increment of $120 on July 1, 1945, were not given the bonus.

P a t terson. As now described by J a m e s Barry, business agent for the Pavers and Road Builders Union (AFL), back in 1941, when K e n n e t h Dayton was Budget Director, the road workers and the a d ministration agreed to put the men on annual wage and the workers dropped their claims for prevailing rates. However, it was agreed t h a t the salaries would be adjusted when the outside rate was increased. Now the union contends t h a t the outside r a t e h a s been raised a n d feels t h a t the municipal employees should also be boosted. The union is asking a temporary a d j u s t m e n t for t h e balance of the fiscal year, a n d a new rate for the 1946-7 budget period. Approximately 620 employees will be affected by the negotiations, including foremen of Asp h a l t Workers; Asphalt Workers; Pavers, Rammers, Flaggers and Curb Setters. The earlier agreement was arranged by Henry Feinstein, business representative of the Hod Carriers Union, Local 1022 (AFL).

Mager, Business Manager By H. J. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1945 W HAT has happened to the leave regulations for New York State institutional employees? For many months, the Civil Service Commission had been in process of formulating a new set of rules for employees in the d e p a r t m e n t s of Correction, Health, Mental Hygiene and Social W e l f a r e . Some time in July, a d r a f t of those rules was ready. Since then, no one knows w h a t has h a p p e n e d to them. Have they gone to the Governor's office? Have they been turned down as unsatisfactory, with a request t h a t a new set must be devised? Is the Civil Service Commission still holding on to t h e m ? The employees are entitled to specific information about these rules. If there is any reason why a sound set of regulations cannot be effectuated, it is the responsibility of the Civil Service Commission to explain why t h a t is so. If the rules proposed in July were found unacceptable and a new set is being worked on, t h a t is information wThich properly belongs to the employees. The LEADER'S editor recently visited employees in institutions throughout the State. He found a feeling of exasperation and frustration among these workers which is not conducive to t h e highest morale. This f a c t should be of concern to the State officials whose task is it to work out the new time-off regulations. There is no gain f o r anybody if employees feel they are being let down in this respect. Everyone admits the necessity of new rules. The old regulations, based on 1933 conditions, are clearly out-ofdate. There is much lack of uniformity, making f o r friction and recrimination. Other State departments need new leave regulations, too. How long must they w a i t ? These matters can be worked out with fairness and simplicity. No vast complex controversial issues are involved. The need of new rules has existed too long to m a k e f u r t h e r delay tolerable. This Civil Service Commission and the State administration should act at once. To W. H. L a t h a m F r o m R. C.

A few suggestions are s u b m i t t e d herein as examples of the way in which t h e a f o r e m e n t i o n e d objective m a y be achieved. 1. T h e struggle to remove t h e debris caused by storms, such as the h u r r i c a n e of last fall, could be easily alleviated by utilizing t h e larger p a c h y d e r m s such as elep h a n t s a n d hippos f o r s t u m p removal a n d the like. 2.

Nevertheless the unioneer r e p e a t e d t h a t t h e r e ' d be trouble if the t r u c k rolled. At this writing, tho t r u c k h a s n ' t rolled. T H E P R O P O S E D constitutional a m e n d m e n t relating to w a r veteran p r e f e r e n c e materially increases t h e p r e f e r e n c e in r e t e n t i o n of a job with t h e S t a t e or a n y of its political subdivisions. T h i s would be true no m a t t e r w h a t construction is placed on t h e passage t h a t a t t e m p t s to s t a t e t h e order of v e t e r a n p r e f e r e n c e , for v e t e r a n s are p r e f e r r e d in retention, a n d in any case, a n d t h e only question concerns w h e t h e r disabled a n d non-disabled v e t e r a n s are to be t h e very last to go. I n t h e veteran p r e f e r e n c e provision of t h e constitution t h e r e is now no r e t e n t i o n clause, but only a n a d v a n t a g e in a p p o i n t m e n t a n d promotion, a n d only to disabled v e t e r a n s (Article V, Section 6). However, t h e S t a t e Civil Service Law does provide modified r e t e n t i o n preference for veterans. T h e rules of seniority apply generally in cases of layoffs, a n d w h e n a veteran is reached, h e is not to be let out, if t h e r e is any o t h e r job t h a t h e is fitted to fill. He is to be t r a n s f e r r e d to t h i s job a n d his salary is to r e m a i n t h e same. However, it is to be noted t h a t t h e r e is a n "if." MODIFIED RETENTION PREFERENCE Section 22, subdivision 1, of t h e Civil Service law s t a t e s in r e g a r d to any "person holding a position by a p p o i n t m e n t or e m p l o y m e n t " in the S t a t e or its political subdivisions, who served in t h e a r m e d forces d u r i n g specified wars, a n d was honorably discharged, t h a t if t h e position . . . shall become unnecessary or be abolished f o r reasons of economy or otherwise," t h e v e t e r a n "shall n o t be disc h a r g e d f r o m t h e public service but shall be t r a n s f e r r e d to a n y b r a n c h of such service for duty in such posRion as h e m a y be fitted to fill, receiving t h e s a m e compensation t h e r e f o r , a n d it is hereby m a d e t h e duty of all persons clothed with t h e power of a p p o i n t m e n t to m a k e s u c h t r a n s f e r effective." Excepted are t h e posilions of private secretary, cashier, or d e p u t y to any official or d e p a r t m e n t . Conditions could very well arise under whioh t h e r e would be no position to which t h e veteran could be t r a n s f e r r e d . Even if t h e r e were a vacancy elsewhere, t h e veteran m i g h t not be deemedi qualified to fill it. ABSOLUTE R E T E N T I O N P R E F E R E N C E T h e proposed a m e n d m e n t to t h e constitution s u b s t i t u t e s for t h e elativo n a t u r e of r e t e n t i o n established in Section 22 of the Civil Service Law a n absolute preference. No longer would layoffs be ordered on a general inverse seniority basis, with t h e v e t e r a n g e t t i n g w h a t p r e f e r e n c e h e m a y w h e n h i s n a m e is r e a c h e d , b u t all n o n v e t e r a n s would be let out before any veterans. T h e only question a t present would concern a m i x u p in t h e choice of one word ( c o n strued in Sept. 25 issue). T h a t question would be w h e t h e r disabled v e t e r a n s or non-disabled v e t e r a n s would be t h e last to go, a n d t h e courts will have to decide it some day. T h e r e is no question t h a t n o n - v e t e r a n s would be t h e first to go, and, as to t h e m , inverse order or seniority m a y be expected to apply as usual.

Fixed Percentage Found W a n t i n g as Passing M a r k By H. ELIOT KAPLAN Executive Secretary, Civil Service Reform Association T h e Civil Service Law does not provide w h a t precisely shall constitute a m i n i m u m passing m a r k in e x a m i n a t i o n s . I t s d e t e r m i n a tion in each e x a m i n a t i o n is left to the discretion of t h e civil service commission. We h a v e accepted t h e practice of the m y t h i c a l p e r centage passing m a r k (70, 75 or 80) without a p p r e c i a t i n g its f a u l ty premise in its application t o civil service tests. Except f o r some of t h e routine objective e x a m i n a t i o n s such as f o r clerical positions, a percentage m i n i m u m passing m a r k is not only of d o u b t f u l validity, but serves a false purpose in civil service tests. Unlike school e x a m i n a t i o n s , t h e 'passing m a r k ' in civil service tests is as variable as the winds, a n d as elusive as Loki. Need as the Criterion I n civil service e x a m i n a t i o n s a fixed percentage passing m a r k is undesirable. T h e objective of a civil service competitive test is n o t to discover how m a n y c a n d i d a t e s m i g h t be f o u n d to be qualified based on a m i n i m u m s t a n d a r d of p e r f o r m a n c e , but to d e t e r m i n e only" t h e best qualified. W h a t should be sought is a sufficient n u m b e r of highly qualified eligible to meet t h e p o t e n t i a l needs of the service. Of w h a t use is i t t o h a v e a n eligible list of over 500 "qualified" c a n d i d a t e s w h e r e the prospective vacancies over t h e life of t h e list would never require m o r e t h a n 10? I t would be f a r more desirable if t h e passing m a r k were not b a s e d on a n y p r e d e t e r m i n e d fixed p e r centage r a t i n g . R a t h e r should i t be based on t h e n u m b e r necessary to provide f o r a reasonable eligible list. It is t i m e we discarded the shibboleth of a p e r c e n t a g e m i n i m u m passing m a r k in civil s e r v ice tests. We should substitute the better concept of a passing m a r k in competitive e x a m i n a t i o n s based on needs of t h e service. This would be m o d e r n a n d m o r e s e n sible. If it did no more, it would a t least avoid i r r i t a t i n g sensitive c a n d i d a t e s who view " f a i l u r e " t o obtain a n a b s t r a c t percentage m i n i m u m passing m a r k as a r e flection on their capabilities or professional qualifications. It would m a k e available to t h e p u b lic service only t h e best qualified candidates. T h e courts have upheld t h e practice of basing eligibility f o r a p p o i n t m e n t on t h e r e a s o n a b l e needs of t h e service, t h u s leaving the l e n g t h of a n eligible list i n each case to t h e discretion of t h e civil service commission.
