Dltect election of officers of the
Patrolmen's Benevolent Association by the members of that organization will become a reality.
One of the most controversial issues in NYC police circles is
speedily rolling to a successful
conclusion, after a vote by delegates of the PBA, Instructing the
present Board of Officers to poll
t h e entire membership on these
questions:
1. Shall the election of PBA officers be by direct vote of PBA
members?
2. Shall the election of PBA officers by delegates be continued?
198 to 23 Victory
The delegates voted 198 to 23
for the proposal that the issue be
solved by ttie Patrolmen themselves.
For many years the question of
direct voting has figured in the
election of officers. The PBA method of operation, whereby delegates
are responsible for everything—
no membership meeting is ever
held—has opened the organization
to widespread criticism among its
own members.
Efforts to alter the situation
have always failed. On several
occasions Ray Donovan has polled
t h e membership on their feelings
In this matter. At the October
meeting of delegates, Mr. Donovan
Introduced a resolution calling for
direct voting, but it failed of passage.

M'Goldrick Sued
By Wilkinson
The dispute between the NYC
Corporation Counsel and Comptroller McGoldrick over the Comptroller's establishment of a rate of
$1.50 an hour for Wireman has
gone to the Courts for determination.
In papers filed with the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court, Corporation Counsel Wilkinson asks for a writ of certiarorl
to reopen the matter and review
the findingji of the Comptroller.
The city, through the Corporation
Counsel, states that the rate
established for the Wiremen is too
high; that the employees involved
are electrioians, not wiremen; that
the duties of these amployees were
not promulgated until 1943 and
t h a t prior back-wages should not
be paid; that the wiremen employed by Consolidated Edison
whose earnings were used as a
basis for comparison are specialists which is not true of th»
municipal wiremen.
At presstime, the manner la
which the Comptroller would meet
the legal battle was not decided
It was considered possible t h a t

might be faced with the tasic of

2. "In searching a man, put him
face against a wall or with his
back to you; keep your gun away
froiA his back; watch out for his
legs; pull his coat half-way down
his back as if you were starting to
take it off as this will restrict the
movements of his arms and
hands; handcuff his hands behind
him, if possible, never in front.
When you subdue a m a n do it
properly and if you search for a
weapon spend all the time necessary to do it properly. Do your

Budget Memo
Assures Yets
Of War Bonus
NYC employees in service have
assurance t h a t their rights will be
protected, accroding to an order
to departments sent out by Budget
Director Thomas J. Patterson.
The Budget Director reminded
department officials t h a t those
employees applying for reinstatement within 90 days a f t e r military discharge must be rehired
and that they are to receive the
cost-of-living bonus and any m a n datory increments they had missed
while in service.
However, a short wait for the
bonus payments by returning veterans is indicated. Recyaests by
departments for bonus adjustments for veterans will be made
once a month, a t which time backpayments will be made, to all veterans who returned during that
month.

VETERANS ASKING FOR TESTS
SHOULD RECEIVE THEM
U. S. CIVIL SiRVICE MOVES
TOWARD SOUNDER HIRING
n indication that the it. S. Civil Service is now moving toward a more realistic recruitment policy is
A
found in the notice of examination just issued for Stenographer and Typist. Although the appointments are to be
war service, they are to be made as the result of competitive examinations of standard pattern, with written and
practical tests. Thus the eligibles w h ^ accept these
positions will be in a much better position than those warservice appointees who did not pass such a competitive
examination, but will have to pass one finally, if job
security is to be theirs.
Also, the U. S. job of Messenger is now open to
non-veterans, whereas it was formerly restricted to veterans. Since jt has been difficult to fill these positions also,
there is nothing gained for the Government or the veterans
by getting fewer applicants than there are vacancies.
Veterans get first choice, but in soliciting civilians as well,
a pool may be created from which appointment may be
made. Vacancies are very numerous.
The general resumption of standard examinations,
rather than reliance on rating for experience and training
only, would be a further improvement.
What is really needed, however, is an end of warservice appointments, since positions of such nature do
not induce belief that the jobs will last.
Congress might at least declare an administrative
peace, and let the noncombative technical military war go
on. An executive order could cure the situation, too. L\
the interest of sounder recruitment the present situation
should not be permitted to continue much longer.

In court cases on which the F.B.I,

slavery, OP.A. violations, bankruptcy fraud. Food and Drug Act
and Immigration Act violations
and even race-track rackets have
come within her sphere of action.
The NYC Civil Service Comjnission is finding it more and more
difficult to answer the growing demands of returned -veterans thai
they shall be permitted to take the part of an examination that
they missed because they were in the armed forces.
Some of the veterans, while in the service, received letters from
the Commission, saying that they would be given that opportunity.
On return they learned that the Commission had found it impossible
to fulfill its promise. This must create embarrassment in the Commission, but the feeling tftiat Is generated in the breast of the veterans
Is much more intense.
One veteran put it this way: "If the veterans hadn't won the wa»
there wouldn't be any Civil Service Commission, and the Commissioners would be goose-stepping down the Avenue of the Americas."
COMMISSION'S REASONS
I
On behalf of tihe Commission, it is stated that there is no desirS
to deny the veterans the opportunity they ask, but that the facilities
of the Commission simply do not permit it. There is not enough
help. Also, with veterans of ttois class returning in small groups,
repeated examinations could not be given without exhausting the
possible questions. Also, it would be impossible to draw the line
anywhere. Examinations in which a single veteran competed wouil
result. To cap it all, the Commission does not decide on its own
financing. Like the other city departments, it is subject to the budget,
and there are no funds to permit all this activity. It might be added
that it is no secret that money is holding up the Fireman examination, and the money question will have to be solved in connection
with tOie proposed Patrolman (PJ3.) examination.
*
,
LINE NOW BEING DRAWN
The argument is not entirely on one side. But it Is not clear
that enough is being done to give the returning veterans what they
feel they are justly entitled to, regardless of whether the blame rests
at City Hall or at 299 Broadway. As for drawing a line, one is being
drawn now, with Fireman and Patrolman candidates who passed
their written tests being given competitive phyisicals on their return
from service. U more lists were given the same consideration, even
If not all candidates on all lists were, the feeling among the vetera«is
would change. The public would like the result much better. As it is,
the defenses and excuses are not as strong a^ the protests, and that
indicates on which side the preponderance of evidence lies

of the New York State Joint Legislative Committee on Interstate

Hardy L. Shirley of the New York

Dr. Shirley stated, "Government sponsorship of scientific research has been an underlying

Great Britain expanded their scientific research and their training of scientific workers more t h a n

He added^ "In America we not

"It is evident t h a t Congress and
the people of our Country now
want to regain the ground lost
during the war and to build up
research to the highest level.
"An entire new'concept of the
role of research Is coming Into
being," announced the Assistant
Dean. "Heretofore research was
looked to for t h e solution of concrete technical problems t h a t confronted agriculturists or industrialists but it was not employed
on a grand scale as a tool for

it was said, would be generally
applicable to all the big examinations.
"The plan appeals to me," said
Director Patterson. "It would give
returning veterans a better opportunity over a longer period.
Those not yet back would have an
