Seniority
Will Count
High in NYC
The NYC Civil Service Commission is working out a plan to increase the weight given to seniority
in promotion examinations. Under
the Rules, record and seniority
' count 50 per cent. The "record"
part has to do with the efficiency
ratings, called service ratings.
There has been much criticism of
service ratings as not being objective, and the plan now afoot,
and which in some form or other
is definitely slated for adoption, is
an attempt to take from the record
* weight and add to the seniority
weight.
This could be done without any
change in the Rules, a procedure
requiring. the approval of the
Mayor and the State Civil Service
Commission. All that would be
needed would be the adoption of
a resolution by the NYC Commis* sion.
Apportionment of Weight
The apportionment of weight as
between record and seniority is
accomplished at present as follows for a rating of Satisfactory:
Record—To a basic 70 per cent
add 1 point per year for up to 15
years.
f
Seniority—Add one-half point
per year up to 10 years.
Total maximum 100 (anything
over doesn't count).
The weight could be shifted to
seniority by giving the 1-point
credit there, and the half point
to record.
President Harry W. Marsh of
the Commission acknowledged that
the subject was being given consideration, but said that he could
not discuss it for publication at
least until the expected report was

Higher U.S.
Pay Lags
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23—The
bill to increase Federal pay by 20
per cent is having tough sledding,
because Senators in particular
feel that little progress can be
made until President Truman
takes a recognizable stand on general wage policy.
Committee hearings on the bill
were postponed on this account.
The President's declaration of
policy is expected to speed up
passage of the bill.
W A R SERVICE
APPOINTMENTS
NEARINC END
By CATHERINE C. BRIGHTHON
Opportunities for permanent jobs exist in various
titles in the Maintenance service of the U. S. Government,
it was announced today. Regular examinations will be
held. Appointees will serve probationary periods which,
if successfully completed, will result in classified status.
The stoppage of open recruitment after V-J Day, plus the
limitation to war-service appointments, made it difficult to fill certain jobs. The Maintainer jobs
are among first ones offering a
career service since duration appointments were made exclusive
in 1942.
The exam notices will be out in
a week or 10 days, admitting veterans and non-veterans. Revenue

Preference Is Explained
I n OneSentence, 410 Words
By H. J. BERNARD
It is difficult for voters to ascertain just what they are being
asked to vote on, when constitutional amendments go to referendum,
and the proposed war veteran preference is a convincing reminder
of this fact. What the proposal means in fact the protagonists
and opponents must explain, spending their own time and money,
although it is a governmental function to give the layman a good
idea of the meaning of the context.
The Board of Elections of the City of New York made circulars
available at the polls on registration days, and is distributing them
otherwise, purporting to set forth
the contents of the six amendments
and one proposition to the satisfactory elucidation of the voter.

More Jobs
To be Given
To Disabled
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23—More
jobs will be open to the physically
handicapped in Federal service,
according to the U. S. Civil Service Commission.
In the future, the Commission
said, the job-analysis program will
include a greater number of jobs
of the non-industrial type. During
the war. the studies were concerned primarily with jobs in the
trades and in manual occupations,
because the labor shortage was
most acute in those occupational
area. Increasing attention will
now be given to the physical demands of administrative, professional and clerical positions. This
will mean that a greater number
of jobs in Washington, D. C.t will
be surveyed. The Commission said
that the assistance of the employing agencies would be necessary
in making these surveys, and
urged that each agency begin at
once to select jobs for the physically handicapped. Those selected
will be studied either by medical
personnel of the agency or jointly
by the agency and the Commission.
where a sufficient supply of veterans are not available, non-veterans will be hired. Persons interested in the jobs can apply
either at the Civil Service Commission (641 Washington Street,
Manhattan for the New York-New
Jersey area) or directly at Veterans Administration facilities.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER
Navy Yard Men
Protest Overtime
Without More Pay
New York Navy Yard employees
are peeved at the curent policy
of asking employees to take compensatory time in payment for
overtime work or Saturday work.
In a report to its members, the
Federation of Architects, Enginers, Chemists and Technicians
at the Yard said:
"The Union's analysis of the
Federal Pay Act of 1945 shows
that the Yard has no legal right
to ask an employee to work occasional overtime outside of the
basic 40-hour Monday to Friday
week and require that the employee take compensatory time off
during the week in order not to
pay overtime money. The NCPI
(Naval Civilian Personnel Instructions) which is the Navy Department's digest of the Pay Act, says
that a per annum employee may
be furloughed without pay during
the "pay week" in order that he
may work an equivalent time outside the basic week, but not for
the purpose of avoiding payment
of overtime money. We contend
the following: (1) The practice
which has been folowed in the
Design Office, of asking men in
on Saturday—in one case for 16
hours—and asking them to take
compensatory time off during the
week has been for the sake of
avoiding payment of overtime
money; (2) The practice of asking
a person to take time off for
overtime already worked is definitely illegal; (3) When an employee is asked to work occasional
or irregular overtime, he is making an unequal sacrifice compared
to his co-workers and should be
paid at a bonus or overtime rate.
Accounting division pay officers
are behind the times as far as
the new Pay Act is concerned."

Commission today announced that

Navy Department to serve as

Post office workers in Manhattan and the Bronx, who recently
lost their Saturday overtime pay
for "compensatory" time off, have
an additional source of complaint.
The overtime was cut with the explanation that the return of men
from military duty provided ample manpower.
But back in September, 1943,
the number of deliveries daily in
this section was reduced. The

were cut from 4 to 3 daily; residential areas were cut from 3 to
2 trips a day. If there is an ample
supply of manpower, the carriers
feel that their old schedule should
be restored. The full program of
deliveries calls for a larger number of carriers and supervisors
than the reduced plan. With the
curtailed deliveries, there is a possibility that former regular carriers returning from milita^r duty
may find no routes to service and
be placed back on substitute duty.
Some of the local Postal officials
share the men's feelings, but there
has been opposition from Washington. Some Postal officials feel
that New York City is the only
section which received four deliveries daily, and that isn't necessary. Local Postal executives point
out the tremendous Postal revenues produced in the City and
say It justifies the extra service.

On Postal Raises
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23—Mail
Equipment Shops employees who,
on June 30, 1945, had complied
with the 18 months' service, efficiency rating, and other applicable conditions entitling them to
automatic salary increase on July
I, 1945, under the act of August L
1941, are entitled to have their
salaries, as increased, used as a
basis for initial salary adjustment
effective July 1, 1945, under the
Postal Service pay statute of July

This ruling by Comptroller General Warren was based on the provision that, before applying the

The city claims that the men

the men get pension benefits

the union rate should prevail. In
other words, it denies that for the
type of work involved, $1.85 constitutes the prevailing rate.

entitled to four $120 increments
from January 1, 1941 (a total In
crease of $480). From this is to
be subtracted any individual increases ($30 or $60) granted since
January, 1941. Future pay is to
be based on the 1941 salary, plus
these increments.
However, the women have another issue on the cost-of-living
bonus. They have been granted a
bonus of $180 but contend they
should have received $360. This
point is still being negotiated.
It is expected that the awards
to most of the women will come
to about $500 to $700 in cash.
David Savage is the attorney in
the negotiations.

Bridge Painters Give
City a Tough Problem
Complaints filed with the NYC
Comptroller's Office by a group of
30 Bridge Painters have important implications to hundreds of
City workers who have made
agreements with the City to accept per annum rates in place of
prevailing rates.
In the current budget there are
81 Bridge Painters who have accepted a yearly late of $2,940 and
45 who receive $12.60 a day. The
30 men who filed complaints have
charged that their rate of pay
is below the accepted union scale
of $1.90 an hour and are asking
for an adjustment.
Comptroller Studying It
This complaint has been report-
ted to the Comptroller for study.
If the men win their plea for
a wage adjustment it will have
the effect of nullifying the per
annum agreements which have
been made in recent years between city and groups of skilled
workers. The men contend, and
some municipal officials share their
view, that their right to the prevailing rate of pay is established
by State law and that it is a right
which c a n t be signed away. If
the Bridge Painters are successful, it will pave the way for other
skilled workers who have been
placed on a yearly-salary basis
to file for an increase wheneve
the private industry rate for th
type of work is increased.

Dear "Froggie":—
Everybody but me wants to know where
you get that super, duper SKV-RITE airmail paper and envelopes. Bill bought it
for me because the watermark "Sky-Rite"
intrigued him. I have used SKY-RITE for
a year or more. SKY-RITE sure is handsome and white and crisp, and still so
lightweight. Expensive-looking and practical,
that's what. I told the gang SKY-RITE
was sold at all good stores, and you will
probably have the sky full of SKY-RITE
letters coming your way.
Everybody sends love—me, too.
NAN.
Dear Nan:—
Be sure you get Genuine SKY-RITE—
not a "phoney." Send a penny post card
to Aunt Emma for sample sheets and envelopes of SKY-RITE Stationery. Address:

Boro Superintendent
Ruling Is Announced
Candidates in the recent examination for Borough Superintendent (Department of Housing and
Buildings) were granted experience credit for the time they
6erved in the positions, although
the 1939 list was invalidated by
the Courts.
The original examination was
voided by the Court of Appeals
because of irregularities in the
holding of the test. Then the incumbents were reappointed to
their positions as provisionals.
However, the Commission agreed
to allow seniority credit up to the
date the test was invalidated by
the court for services in the Borough Superintendent title.

Dominic A. Ranabare was denied
preference on the Sanitation Man
A list, but was approved for preference on four appropriate lists:
Attendant, Messenger, Watchman

Fourteen new bowlers have joined the Municipal Women's Bowling League, according to Kay
Mahoney, of Public Works, president of the league.

fee if they don't take the test
according to regulation of . the
Commission adopted today.
The new regulation provides
that where the candidate withdraws from a special military test
before the date of examination,
he is entitled to a refund of his
fee.
N. Y. CITY NEWS
Preferred Lists
Special Military
Persons who have been laid-off
from City positions rate reappointment before special military lists may be used, according
to a ruling of the Municipal Civil
Service, announced today.
The question arose in connection with appointment as Court
Attendant. A preferred list (layoff) for Sergeant-on-Aqueduct and
a special military list for Patrolman had both been declared appropriate for the post. The question arose as to which list took
precedence over the other.
Legal Opinion Rendered
In an opinion on this matter—
,which may affect numerous future
appointments—Sidney M. Stern of
the Commission's Legal Division
said:
The substance of this issue as
raised is whether the preferred
list for
Sergeant-on-Aqueduct,
which was declared appropriate
for Court Attendant by this Commission takes precedence in certification over a special military
list for Patrolman, which was also
declared appropriate for Court
Attendant.
I am of the opinion that the
Section 31 preferred list takes
precedence over any and all special
military lists established pursuant
to the provisions of Section 246
of the militiary law. Section 246
of the military law provides in
effect that a special military list
shall be certified before certification shall be made from a subsequent eligible list for the same
position.
The query is— Is a preferred
list which came into being subsequent to the establishment of
a special military list subordinate
to such special military list in the
certification process? I believe
service law.
It appears, therefore, that a
section 31 preferred list is not
considered like any other eligible
list for the purposes of granting
disabled veterans preference. Likewise a section 31 preferred list is
to be distinguished from an ordinary eligible list because persons
must be reemployed from it on
the basis of pbsition on the list.
There can be no one of three appointments which is true of an
eligible list, whether open competitive or promotion.
I, therefore, conclude that a
section 31 preferred list is always
to be preferred over a special military list, even though there be
names upon such preferred list
which have been placed thereon
after and subsequent to the establishment of a special militiary
lisit as provided in section 246,
subdivision 5 and 7 of the military
law.
Not An Eligible List
That a section 31 preferred liist
is not an eligible list is further
emphasized by the fact that the
Court of Appeals has held that
disabled veterans whose names
appear on a section 31 preferred
list do not have preference as
provided in section 21 of the civiil

that the answer to that question
is no. I base my belief and opinion
on the fact that the phrase "subsequent eligible list for the same
position" does not have any thing
to do with preferred lists under
Section 31 as such. A section 31
list is not a true list within the
meaning of the term "eligible
list." Actually a reading of section
31 indicates very clearly that it is
not an eligible list as such at all
but it is merely a roster for reemployment of persons who have
been laid off in the City Service
in the order of their seniority. It
has none of the indicia of a recognized eligible list. It is not promulgated or established as such. Persons whose names appear upon it
are persons who have already
qualified and been employed. The
list is not established in any order
of competitive merit and fitness
such as the ordinary eligible list
for open competition or promotion
is established. It is a list established on the basis of seniority
from among persons who have already qualified. It is merely a reemployment roster of persons
whose names appear upon it at
different times for different periods of eligibility, depending on
when their names originally appeared on it, the seniors appearing
first and expiring first, the juniors
appearing later on and expiring
later on.

Official Abstract on Preference

Tolman New President:
A Congratulation Dilemma
(Continued
election of Dr. Frank L. Tolman as President of the
THE
Association of State Civil Service Employees represents a wise choice indeed, for Dr. Tolman is one of the
most erudite and masterful men in State service. He possesses both the know-what and the know- how. Under his
able leadership much accomplishment can be expected.
But cmly so f a r as he is enthusiastically supported can
that leadership be fully effective.
It is hard to decide whether to congratulate Dr. Tolman more strongly on his election or the Association for
obtaining a man of such towering intellectual stature as
its head.
Dr. Tolman last June received the Harold J. Fisher Memorial Award, donated by The LEADER but awarded by a select committee unconnected in any way with
The LEADER.
"I can't think of anyone who more appropriately deserves this award," were the words of Governor Thomas
E. Dewey as he handed over to Dr. Tolman the large
silver trophy cup signifying that the pleasant, gentle employee of the State Educaiton Department had won the
first of the annual awards. Dr. Tolman, the State Director of Adult Education and the Library Extension Division had been selected by a committee consisting of
Charles Burlingham, Howard Kelley and Eliot Kaplan, all
of the Civil Service Reform Association. The award goes
to that employee deemed to have contributed most effectively to the improvement of the State service. It was
set up by The LEADER in memory of the former president of the Association of State Civil Service Employees,
who died last year.
Mr. Fisher was an outstanding president.2 Dr.
Tolman is certain to be another outstanding president.
It is highly creditable to the Association that it selects
men of such high standing.
Repeat This!
JAMES E.
SIMPSON
After twenty years of service in
the State Department of Mental Hygiene, Jr-roes E. Simpson,
Supervisor of Physical Training
and Recreation, feels that he has
profited by his work for the State.
He says that his work was more
than just a job and that he could
always feel he was making a
valuable contribution to society
in his work with those who had to
depend on the State in their time
of illness.
During his long term of service
for the State he has noticed many
improvements in the care and
treatment of the mentally ill, and
has seen a change in the public
point of view towards the unfortunate afflicted. Two score yeai\s
ago mental ills were something to
be mentioned only in secret, he
recalled, and a mental institution
a place with foreboding walls and
deep mysteries.
Today, mental
illness is recognized as being an
ailment no different from physicall illnesses and responsive to
treatment. The institution of today, says Mr. Simpson, is not a
place of confinement, but a place
of cure, with ultimate goal, the
personal improvement of the patient.
His retirement after 20 years is
a result of physical disability.
"The State service offers a fine
career possibility," he said, "and
1 am glad to note that conditions
and opportunities are improving
all the time. The ultimate goal
may be far off, but the idea that
the employee is a person and not
a commodity is already fully recognized."

The "Abstract of Proposed Amendment Number Six" is a restatement of the contents of the preference amendment, and the
only trouble with it is that it consists of a single sentence 410 words
long. Now, I'm sure that the average voter hasn't the endurance
necessary to complete the reading of a sentence that long, and 1
protest that if he could reach the end, he would be breathless a n d
staggering from mental exhaustion, knowing scarcely more, ov
possibly less, than he did when he ventured upon the perilous task.
HERE IS THE PROOF
Lest you have any doubts, here is the 410-word, single-sentence
abstract:
"The purpose and effects of this proposed amendment are a ) t o
alter the provisions for preference in appointments and promotions
in the civil service of the state and its civil divisions now existing
in favor of honorably discharged soldiers, sailors, marines and nurses
of the army, navy and marine corps of the United States disabled
in the actual performance of duty in any war, to an extent recognized by the United States Veterans' Bureau, and who are citizens
and residents of this state and were such at the time of their
entrance into the military or naval service of the United States
and whose disability exists at the time of his or her application
for such appointment or promotion, without regard to their standing
on any list from which such appointment or promotion may be
made, to include any member of the armed forces of the United
States who served therein in time of war, who is a citizen and
resident of this state and was a resident at the time of his or her
entrance into the armed forces of the United States and was honorably discharged or released under honorable circumstances from such
service, and who was disabled therein to an extent certified by the
United States veterans administration, and whose disability is certified
by the United States veterans administration to be in existence at
the time of his or her application for appointment or promotion,
without regard to his or her standing on any list from which such
appointment or promotion may be made; <2) to extend similar
preference in appointment and promotion, after such'disabled m e m bers of the armed forces shall have been first preferred, to any
member of the armed forces of the United States who served therein
in time of war, who is a citizen and resident of this state and was
a resident at the time of his or her entrance into the armed forces
of the United States and who has been honorably discharged or
released under honorable circumstances therefrom, such latter preference to continue until December 31, 1950, but in n o event lor a
period less than five years following such honorable discharge or
release under honorable circumstances, and '3) to grant to any such
member of the armed forces preference in the retention of any
position held by him or her, in inverse order of the preference by
said amendment provided, upon the abolition or elimination of positions in the civil servioe to which such preferences are applicable."

By FRANK L. TOLMAN
President, The Association •* State Civil Serrloe Employees
WITH MIXED EMOTION, your President takes his pen in hand
to report to the Association of State Civil Service Employees for the
first time in his new capacity.
___
I am deeply conscious of the honor and of the immense responsibilities entrusted to me as President. Without your constant sudport and active aid I can do little. But you 28,000 members of the
Association and its officers and committees, working closely together,
can accomplish much.
We need live and active workers within the Association everywhere in State service and 100 per cent membership. Headquarters
cannot solve local problems. Only strong local chapters can. We
need more and more active committees, both local and State, to study
the larger problems of State service and to recommend solutions.
We need a program of progress on which all can agree. I believe
the delegates have provided this program in the resolutions adopted
at the annual meeting. [These resolutions will be described in The On the dais at the State Association meeting Lawrence I. Hollister, FieM Representative, is buzzing

fear and beyond reproach.
ever the session.
BROAD PROGRAM
Other needs are adherence to the principle of equal pay for
equal work. Women should no longer be denied their just desserts.
The creation of real career opportunities in the State Service;
salary scales sufficient to fairly reward merit and fitness and to
make possible an abundant and wholesome life for all, uneffected
price inflation or price deflation; adquate promotion and transfer
opportunties and the elimination of blind alley jobs; a fair pension
system which will really protect—are other important planks.
The veteran should have equal right to a State job he is qualified to fill. But he should not ask vested rights to jobs he cannot
competently hold. Good government should not be jeopardized for
selfish interest of any group.
Should the Veteran's Preference Amendment be adopted, there
is still important work to be done. Within the limitations and contradictions of the amended constitution, there are many points to
be clarified. A constitutional law must be drawn up and this means
a law that will preserve the merit system to the greatest possible
degree as well as the veterans' preference. The seeming discriminations against disabled veterans will probably have to be incorporated
in the new law, but the knotty problem of what constitutes disability
must be defined. The Association must take an active part in the
formulatioiT of the best and fairest law possible.
My able associates, the executive committee, and the many
special committees must of necessity bear the chief burden of building into reality the many reforms you proposed and adopted at the
annual meeting.
HE WAS DRAFTED
Without our efficient lieadquarter's staff, I should be completely
sunk. Without our devoted field workers, the Association would
disintegrate. I promise every effort to multiply manifold the visits

I shall seek new helpers for important new and old committees.
I shall, however, retain the tried and true experienced men who

I have not sought the office. I was drafted. I was not allowed
to refuse. I am your servant and I cannot serve you well unless you
watch my every act and tell me whether each is well or ill devised.
I have no confidence that I know all the answers. I shall seek the
facts and your advice before I act on any matters. I shall not act
alone, but I shall act with you.

Shoro in Report Reviews Cains
One of the most significant
civil service documents
within the
past year is the Report of the President,
prepared by Clifford C.
Shoro and read by him at the October 16 annual meeting of the
Association
of State Civil Service Employees at Albany.
Carefully
documenting
the problems and achievements
of the employees,
it
constitutes
"must" reading for all State public workers.
Mr. Shoro
read his report as his final act in the Presidency
of the
State
Association.
Report of the President
The following review of the activities of our association during
the year that ends tonight constitutes the annual report which, as
your president, I have the privilege to make.
The year started with misgivings in the minds of many of us
as to the possibility of accomplishing some of the major objectives
of the program which you had outlined by means of the resolutions
presented and adopted. We had already realized the need for cooperation with the administration in the persons of the Governor
and his assistants and members of his Cabinet, and with members
of the legislature in working out our problems and obtaining solution
by legislation where needed and by administrative regulation where
that would suffice.
The first and major difficulty that faced us was the proposal
to amend the salary schedules in the Field-Hamilton law by deleting
the occupational groups and salary grades then in the law and
substituting a schedule of all salary grades now in the law plus
such new ones as were deemed necessary to improve the administration of fne law and allow for many upward salary adjustments
that were recommended but which could not be made under the
salary scales then included in the law. While we agreed that subsalary grades were needed in some occupational groups, we also

were adamant in our determination that the occupational groups
must be kept in the law.
HOW WORK PROGRESSED
Accordingly, we entered into a series of conferences with
members of the staff of the Director of the Budget, the staff of the
Department of Civil Service, and some of the members of the
temporary Salary Board, with Judge Conway, President of the Civil
Service Commission acting as chairman and by this means proposed
amendments to the Civil Service Law were written into a bill which
passed the legislature and became law upon signature by the
Governor. You all know the contents of those amendments and it
is not my intention to detail t h e m here. I a m sure that this legislation was the biggest single accomplishment of the Association
since the Field-Hamilton Law itself was passed. I cite this as an
example of the many problems that were worked out and successfully settled by cooperative effort and frank discussions of the
principles involved. I believe it is safe to say that this year has
been the most fruitful in accomplishment, particularly through
legislation, that we have had since the Field-Hamilton Law was
enacted.
EMERGENCY PAY
In the most serious period of our national history when just
wage and price adjustments were difficult to chart, your Association,
by its constant and intelligent presentation of the State employee's
needs, obtained a cost of living bonus for the present fiscal year
equal to the most favorable paid in any other public jurisdiction
of which I have record.
The over thirteen million dollar increase in pay, ranging from
20 to 10 percent above basic scales and reaching to all pay levels,
more than double the adjustment of the previous fiscal year, wais,
I a m sure, heartily appreciated by very many State workers. We
all know that this emergency increase did not offset the increase
in prices or the increase in taxes. These facts were pointed out
to the appropriating authorities. The emergency pay was the best
the State of New York would do.
We face a greater challenge in permanent salary planning. The
Association with its unselfish will to raise the living standards of
its members, its outstanding record along this line, its splendid
contacts and its honorable standing with the citizenry of the State,
is of course the only medium offering promise of successful progress
in the future. You must keep it strong with your loyalty to its ideals.

PERSONNEL COUNCIL
Today you heard of the Personnel Council from its chairwoman.
We have great hopes that this new agency, which is an answer
to Association appeals for the establishment of overall uniformity
of action with relation to sound employment practices, will become
the means of resolving favorably countless major and minor grievances in a constructive way.
The Association has nurtured the merit system and made it
strong in law. It h a s sought and obtained in the State Classification
Board, the State Salary Standardization Board and the Personnel
Council, the most progressive and modern machinery known to deal
with employment matters. It remains to be seen, in large measure,
if there can be recruited by successive administrations men and
women possessed of the wisdom, the sympathy and the moral courage
to establish successful employer-employee cooperation in New York
State civil service.
The machinery to do this is ready to their hands and its
establishment is the result of the strong spirit of employee cooperation present in your Association.
*
*
*
Not all of our efforts met with success, however. We have failed
in our many efforts to obtain consideration of employee problems
by the chairman of the Public Service Commission. Here we have
an instance of complete disregard of cooperation in maintaining
good employment conditions. It seems that our only recourse in
that department is through court action.
DELAY ON HEALTH LEAVE AND HOURS OF WORK RULES
T h e President of the Civil Service Commission, in spite of
many promises to me personally to promulgate rules and regulations
on vacations, sick leaves, hours of work and other matters of conditions of employment, has failed to put such rules into effect. I
am frank to confess that I know no reason for such procrastination.
Several officers of our Association, including the chairman of our
committee on this subject, sat in conference at least three times
with Judge Conway and members of his staff to discuss the contents
of such rules. We were given to understand that at least those
relating to institutions were in form for submission to the Governor
for approval. T h a t was months ago Where these regulations are
now, and when they will be promulgated is a question that I cannot
answer.
FINANCIAL STATUS
H i e report of the Treasurer will show that our net assets at the
close of the year are $26,720.34. This compares most favorably with
last year's report which showed total assets of slightly in excess
of $20,000.00. Last year, after reviewing the financial transactions
of the Association, which totalled over $100,000, I realized the neces
sity for setting up a financial plan at the beginning of the year,
which plan would be in the form of a budget, showing estimated
receipts and a plan of activities reflected in anticipated expenditures
that would necessarily be kept within the anticipated receipts.
Accordingly, on May 1 at a meeting of the Executive Committee, X
appointed a special committee of which Mr. Charles H. Foster is
chairman, for the purpose of studying the financial records, working
out a planned budget for next year and to install a modern system
of accouuts. Mr. Foster and his committee have done an excellent
job and the new system of accounts is installed as of October 1.
The budget that has been prepared and which has the approval
of the Executive Committee, is based on the supposition that you
will, at this meeting, adopt a n amendment to the by-laws increasing
