Salary Committee Receives Report at Special (Meeting -—Armstrong Interprets Findings Special to The LEADER ALBANY, Dec. 11—The Salary Committee of the Association of State Civtt Service Employees at a special meeting revealed t h a t data presented to the Committee Indicated that basic salaries of State employees are 45 per cent lower than wages In industrial employment. "This is the reason that the State finds it difficult to »€cruit workers in various fields of State service," said Charles M. Armstrong, Chairman of the Commit[ tee. [ "Increased living costs and also C > taxes which were not required by L^, the Federal Government of State n employees when basic salary scales were largely determined in 1937, so reduce the take-home pay as to seriously impair the State employee's standard of living." Experts Render Service The committee is composed of expert research men and women in the various departments of State Government. When their report is finally completed, it will be used in conferences with executive and Legislative officials to support the Association's appeal for substantial adjustments in basic scales, as well as for a sound plan of inflation insurance to stabilize the purchasing power of the wages paid in State service. One Change Made In Key Answers $5,000 List O.K/d For $3,000 Job The tentative key answers to the recent General Promotion Examination to Clerk, Grade 2, given by the Municipal Civil Service Commission, have been adopted «s the final key with one change. In, question number 73, "Correct" is substituted for the tentative answer "Had-Would." The use of the NYC Personnel Officer eligible list to fill vacancies as Administrative Assistant in the NYC Housing Authority was approved by the Municipal Civil Service Commission. The Housing Authority jobs pay $3,000; the test was given for the $5,000 a year job of Personnel Officer. WASHINGTON, Dec, 11 — A show-down vote Is expected on the Downey pay-increase measure for Federal white-collar employees. Debate on the measure started last Thursday. Senator Downey, sponsor of the measure, is presenting powerful argxunents for passage of the bill, which would provide a general increase for the Government workers. "The Federal employees," said Senator Downey, "desperately need more money now to pay rent, buy food and clothes and to provide medical care for their famines." He is reported to have gained more support for the measure. He cited cases of Government employees who have been forced to cash in war bonds and borrow money from loan sharks to meet their minimiim living expenses. Senator Byrd, who has generally been considered the spearhead of the economy bloc, told reporters that he favors "a fair and just increase in Federal wages based on the cost of living." He saiid he is willing to accept figures showing an increased cost-of-living of 33 per cent since 1941. He added: "I am opposed to the flat 20 per cent provision. I believe a graduated scale should be worked out to allow a higher percentage increase to employees in the lower brackets who have really felt the pinch of higher living costs." FIRST COMPLETE FACTS ON EXAM FOR PATROLMAN Veterans Get Special Late Filing Privilege—All Applications Must Be Obtained and Filed In Person. No Minimum Weight Is Required The eligibility requirements have been liberalized in some important respects for the NYC examination for Patrolman (Police Department), for which filing opens tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9 a.m. and lasts until Dec. 28 at 3 p.m. Most important of the changes are these: 1. The minimum weight of 140 pounds is no longer required.' The S'S'' minimum barefoot height requirement stands, but the candidate who attains the acceptable height minimum need be only of approximately normal weight and height. 2. The weight given to the written and the physical tests has been changed in the direction of stressing the mental test. Formerly the weights were equal, 5050. Now they will be written, 60, and physical. 40. O i ^ r Differences Noted Other differences between the present examination and the last one. held in 1942, include: No applications will be issued or received by mail. All applications must be obtained and filed in person. Honorably discharged veterans may file conditionally, even if they exceed the maximum age limit of 29,'provided the actual age, less the period of service in the armed forces, comes within the maximum age requirement. Also, those veterans who were unable to ffie during the regular period may file to within 10 days of the date of the written exam(Continued on Page 3) Big, New Exam for Clerk ^ Denials of Pay Heads 9 Live U.

Messengers, Attendants, Speuiul to Tii« LEADES ALBANY, Dec. 11—The Association of State Civil Service Employees has strongly protested to the heads of the Department of Correction and the Department of Mental Hygiene and to the Budget Director, interpretations of Chapter 765 of the Laws ot 1945 relating to cash payments to employees for vacation periods, pass days, eto., whereby benefits were denied to employees for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1945. In communications addressed to the officials. Dr. Frank L. TolPresicteut of tti« Amciatiou. pointed out tbat the principles set forth in the statute and the spirit in which the statute was written called for liberal interpretation and that to deny payments for such overtime as in the case of. workers at Albion and Westfield, and to other classes of workers, seemed to constitute a nullification of the statute. Action was urged to bring about a correction cf the rulings, as f a r as it is possible to correct them at this time. Support of a proposed amend, nent to the law to make such correction mandatory was aske<i Training Officers and Vocational Advisers Needed in a Hurry One of the most popular positions in the Federal service, for which 2,000 applicants are desired, is now being offered—Clerk at $2,100 a year, with $315 extra for a 44-hour week and $630 extra for a 48-hour week. The respective totals are $2,415 and $2,730. Vacancies exist in NYC and vicinity. Both veterans and non-veteram may apply. The examination Is open to both men and women. Although the appointments are war-service indefinite, the facts that a standard examination is given and there is a constant need for clefks, improves the possibility of conversion to classified status (job security) when regulations are adopted for such conversion. Experts have given their unoffl- cial opinion that candidates should not hesitate to apply. Veterans will receive the benefit of statutory preference—10 points for the disabled, 5 points for non-veterans. 8 Other Live Opportunities The Clerk title is one of 9 titles in which live job opportunities exist in the Federal service. These 9 are the only real opportunities now in the Federal service of the Second District (N. Y. and N. J.). Eight of thsee jobs are open to both veterans and non-veterans. One of them—Vocational Adviser —is restricted to veterans. This iM {Continued on Page 16) More Sfafe News Page$ 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, I Ij Page Tvrm II. S. NEWS e l m IfeRVldE LEADER Rulings Clarify Ciying Security To Disabled Vets By CHARLES SULLIVAN WASHINGTON, Dec. 11—A copy of regulations of the U. S. Civil Service Commission applying to President Truman's executive order on conferring permanent competitive classified status on veterans with a least 10 per cent disability was released today. The order required the veteran to have completed "a trial period of one year ' in a Federal civilian position, whereupon the head of his agency could certify him to the C. S. Commission, if be rendered satisfactory service during that period, for permanency. "\^,r-service indefinite employees ale included. "One-Year" Explained The one-year provision in the executive order (9644) is explained as follows in the Commission's regulations (Departmental Cirotilar No. 546): "A person subject to the provisions of this order who (1) is now serving a trial period under D.C. 536 and (2) who has completed one year of service under an appointment not limited to a period of one year or less in any department or agency, is eligible f o r a Competitive Classified status. However, after acquiring such status, the provisions of D.C. 536 regarding trial periods apply as in any other transfer cases. Also the service of an employee for the purpose of this order shall include service under any appointment not limited to a period of one year or less, in any Federal department or agency." Thus the statement is made war-service indefinite appointees are subject to the benefit and that the probationary period can date back to original war-service appointment. Who May Qualify Definition ol who may qualify as a war-service indefinite ap"Ijointee is given in the regulations as follows: "Any veteran serving under a war-service indefinite apT>ointment has been construed to include, in addition to those who received an original war-service indefinite appointment since March 16, 1942 or since October 23. 1943 in the Postal Service (field), the following groups: "A. Those who had been serving under Rule VIII, Executive Order 8257, Executive Order 8458, or Ex(.^mtive Order 8564, and were converted to war-service indefinite appointees when the War Service Regulations -became effective. "B. Those transferred f r o m War Service Regulations from excepted positions or from positions in which they were status quo. "C. ThOie appointed in thirdclass post offices since October 23, 1943 who were converted to warservice indefinite appointees October 15, 1945, the effective date of the classification of clerks in third-class post offices." Limited to Disabled Vets The benefits are for the disabled veterans alone, not for their wives, nor does the order apply to veterans' widows. The date of certification by the agency Is the effective date of attainment of status, say the regulations. A disabled veteran on a reduction in force list who has not been actually separated from the Federal civilian service should be considered for certification, the regulations add, while, if separated on or after Oct. 19 last, should be considered for reappointment, so that he can qualify for status. The regulations contain the following additional classifications: Official Requirements "II..Persons to whom the order Applies "A veteran serving under a war-service indefinite appointment who "(1) Presents to the appointing officer evidence of disciiarge under honorable conditions, from the armed forces; "(2) (a) Was employed in a civilian capacity on Octobei: 19, 1945, the date of the order, or has been appointed since under a war-seivice indefinite appointment, or "b) While not on active civilian duty on October 19, 1945, has since been restored to duty under War Service Regulation XTTI, following military service. "(3) Furnishes evidence of a service-connected disability by presenting to the appointing officer one of the following types of evidence: "A. Veterans Administration "1. An official statement from the Veterans Administration, dated within 6 months, showing that the ex-serviceman or woman has a presently existing serviceconnected (Usability of not less than ten per cent, or is receiving compensation or pensiion for disability of service origiin. "2. An official statement showing that the ex-serviceman or woman is receiviing disability retirement benefiits. "B. War Department or Navy Department certifications. "1. An official statement from the War or Navy Department (gr the original orders) showing that the retired officer or enlisted man is receiviing retired pay for disability incurred in line of duty." The regulations are signed by L. A. Moyer, Executive Director and Chief Examiner, U. S. Civil Service Commission, Washington, D. C.

DAY BY DAY Disabled vets at the Veterans Administration in NYC are anxiously awaiting action by their personnel officers on having their war service indefinite appointments changed to classified status. Many of the divisions at Vets in NYC are working overtime each evening to whack the backlog. WASHINQTON. Dec. 11—James B. Burns, President, American Federation of Government E m ployees, says that a new bill may be introduced for unemployment and travel i>ay for U. S. workers separated from their jobs. He said: "Already hundreds ol thousands of Government employees have been dismissed and the Government has made no provision tor tiding t h « n over until they get new jobs. Some of them, of course, have had new jobs waiting for them, and others, notably the older people who are eligible for retirement, and wives whose,husbands were in the military service, plan to withdraw from the labor market. But there are still a great many employees who have lost their jobs with Uncle Sam and need others. Many of these are short of funds because their pay in Government work was low and their expenses were high in crowded centers where war work was so generally concentrated. Discusses New Bill "Now Senator Downey h a s indicated interest in their behalf, and suggests that Senator George, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, may introduce a new bill to take care of them. Presumably the Senate would favor it, and it was reported on the House side, when the unemployment compensation was before it, tiiat Staffers are being taken on at 346 Broadway at CAP-3 and CAP« 4 (one year of experience is required for the CAP-4 grade).

Final selection of interns to participate in the program will be made on the basis of careful study of the candidates' past work records, the agency recommendations, written examinations, and personal interviews.

Have a minimum of two years of successful, progressive work experience; "2. Not be above CAF-9, P-3 or Brooklyn Local 251 of the ^ National Federation of Post Office Clerks Is energetically pressing its campaign for a salary increase for post-office clerks. David Silvergleid, President of the local j with Harry Stiunkofl and I r v l n « Penchuk, attended a WashingtoL^ wmference. The first basic increase in pay for postal employees in 20 years was signed by President Trumann on July 6, 1»45. This was predicated on a 48-hour week. The r e t u r n to a 40-hour week will mean a reduction of 30 per cem in take home pay. "President Truman is fully aware of the deplorable status of the postal employee and other federal employees," said Mr. Silvergleid, "and is on record for a 20 per cent increase. However, certain groups in Congress prefer so-called economy to fair t r e a t - ^ ment of under-paid government-^ workers. As a result, we are compelled to organize for a direct appeal to our real employers, the American public." 4 APTITUDE TESTS M Manufocturingr & Deallnr POIilCE A N D M I I J T A R T EQUIPMENT l i E A R N yoar aptitudes and c a p i t a l i s e on them.

House Committee Approved 3 Bills WASHINGTON, Dec. 11—Three bills of interest to civil service employees have lieen reported favorably by the House Civil Service Committee. One is the Vinson Bill, which would include members of Congress under the Civil Service Retirenient System. This would I^ovide a minimum annual retirement pension of $2,SOO a year and also calls for retirement deductions on Coi^gressional salaries. Senator Downey is reported to have a similai- bill ready for in- troduction to the Senate. A Senate-approved bill to provide that veterans should not be required to make up pension payments for their time on military duty also won approval of the House group. Another bill with prior Senate approval which won an OK from the House committee would extend the time limit during which Federal employees covered by the Ramspeck - Mead Act of 1940 could be converted to i-egular Civil Service appointees. equivalent grades at the time of nomination; "3.

Answers ^ill appear in next week's issue, along with more study material. At the end of this article are the answers to last week's questions. Read the followiing passage carefully and then answer the questions following the paragraph relating to it. By the "corpus delicti," i.e., the body or the substance of an offense, is meant the existence of a criminal fact. Unless such a fact exists there is nothing to investigate. But, when a criminal f a c t is discovered, its existence must be established fully, completely, by the most clear and decisive evidence, or in other words, by direct proof. A good example of this is the case where a dea^ body is found with the skull smashed in upon the brain, under circumstances which exclude any inference of accident or suicide. This would be direct evidence of the death and proof of the violence, establishing the existence of a criminal act. When these facts have been proved, the "corpus delicti" is established, even though no one, as yet, knows the identity of the victim or the culprit, l ^ e identity of the victim or the perpetrator of the crime may be established by circumstantial evidence beyond a reasonable doubt. According to the Penal Law, "no person can be convicted of murder or m a n slaughter, unless the death of the person alleged to have been killed, a n d the fact of killing by defendant, as alleged, are each established as independent facts; the former by direct proof and the latter beyond a reasonable doubt." Answer questions 1 to 5 below on the basis of the above paragraph. • Question 1 According to the preceding paragraph, before a person can be convicted of manslaughter it is necessary t h a t (a) the death of the victim be established beyond a reasonable doubt, (b) the fact exists by virtue of the "corpus delicti," (c) he is given a complete and unbiased trial by jury including the establishment of a criminal fact, (d) the fact of killing by the defendant is established as well as the "corpus delicti," (e) the accused is alleged to have done the killing and the fact of death is proved beyond a reasonable doubt. lishing the identity of the perpetrator of the criminal act, (b) before any criminal fact can be established, the "corpus delicti" must be in evidence, (c) a dead body is prima facie evidence of the "corpus delicti," (d) the Penal Law i s ' the basis for criminal justice in this State, (e) where a person is guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, he may be convicted of murder or m a n slaughter.

Special attention to OIvH SerTire Kmployees Question 5 Judging from the information given in the above paragraph, it would be most correct to state that (.a) a person charged with manslaughter could not be convicted solely on the establishment of the killing as a fact, Cb) where a crime is not alleged to exist, there is no absolute basis for investigation, (c) direct proof is the only way whereby a criminal fact may be discovered, (d) proof of violence may not be established by inference, (e) circumstantial evidence is the general means whereby tiie identity of t h e perpetrator of a crime is established. Each of the following passages contains one word which is not in keeping with the meaning which the passage is evidently intended to carry. One of the five (bold faced) words does most to spoil the true meaning of the passage. Read each passage carefully and then answer the question immediately following. Question 6 Bigamy is permitted where a person who is already legally married, marries another person during the life of his or her wife or husband. The one bold face word does most to spoil the true Question 2 meaning of the above passage is The preceding paragraph would (a) bigamy, (b) permitted), (c) indicate t h a t when a criminal already, (d) marries, (e) during. fact is discovered, it should be (a) reported to the police authorities Answers to last week's study without delay to establish its ex- questions: 1.

At no time was the original goal of the UFOA forgotten, t h a t is ijetter hours for all company officers no matter when promoted. An impasse was finally reached, no more officers could expect to receive the 8-hour day until the 200 Lieutenants who were working as Firemen would start performing their duties in their rightful officer rank. Kept On Fighting The UFOA never stopped fighting and now the Association is happy to announce t h a t these 200 Lieutenants are going to be placed in companies as regular officers. T h a t will mean practically all Captains and Lieutenants in the five boroughs will be placed on an 8-hour day by New Years.

I m mediatly the Executive Board of the UFOA drew up plans and schedules to use all officers available to permit them to work an hourly schedule commensurate with the m e n available. In September, 1945, a new strategy was instituted and contacts were made witli Mayor LaGuardia in addition to Commissioner Walsh.

Mager. Business Manager TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1945 GAIN ON HAZARD PAY A TRIBUTE TO STATE ASSN. ACCEEDING to the request of the State Association of INCivil Service Employees to provide, under the FeldHamilton law, extra compensation for those State employees performing duties of more than ordinary hazard and strain, Budget Director John E. Burton rightly stresses the need of accurate information so that those employees who are to be benefited can be identified. Without any loss of time the work is being done in various State departments. Most certainly, now that so much ground has been gained, there is every reason to expect that all departments will heave to with a vengeance. The task is no slight one, but neither is the need for prompt application of the remedy. Difficult tasks of comparative analysis of duties remain. The actual benefit will date back to October 1 last, regardless of when the appraisal is completed for each department, but that must not be any incentive to delay placing in the hands of the Budget Director all the data he needs to carry out the policy he has declared. The fight is not completely won until the payment of the benefits is made to all who deserve them. It is greatly to the credit of the Association that it has proceeded in this matter, as it proceeds in all other matters, with a patience that in no sense tempers courage or determination. Confidence in the success of other projects proposed by the State Association is more than justified by the recent accomplishment, which, however, is only one of a long list of achievements to the State Association's credit. Analysis of the Short-List Plan In NYC Patrolman Examination I T IS VERY INTERESTING to observe how an eligible Msi closely apportioned to the number of expected vacancies works oui, especially as the plan will be applied, for the first time in a large NYC examination, to Patrolman (P.D.). The system in brief is this: If there are to be about 3,00f vacancies during the year following the promulgation of the eligitoi® list, the final number of eligibjes will be limited to 3,000, or to • small percentage extra, to allow for declinations or other contingencies. I n this way the life of the list is limited by expiration t o on* year, more or less; barring exhaustion, a long list would have to tos kept alive, on account of legal requirements, for four years. THREE OBVIOUS CONCLUSIONS There is no reason to believe t h a t predetermination of the number of eligibles would reduce the number of applications. About 30,0<M are expected to file applications for Patrolman. There are certain obvious conclusions to be drawn from t<h« situation. 1. The total number of jobs obtainable is neither reduced nor increased by limiting the size of the eligible list to the number estimated vacancies. 2. Ten per cent (3,000) of^ the number of applicants (30,00W will make t h e eligible list, hence 90 per cent will fail. 3. If t h e number of failures is 27,000 out of a total 30,000 applicants, then some consideration must be given to reducing the normal application fee, in view of the possible 75 per cent reduction in t h e life of the eligible list, and the abnormally large percentage 9i failures. RESULTS NOT SO OBVIOUS Not so obvious, however, is the effect of the i^ort-list system on veterans. This effect will be primarily: 1. Fairer distribution of opportunity among a larger number oi veterans, because annual examinations and apportionment of vacancies leave a reserve of police jobs for which members of the armed forces may compete in later tests, if military service prevents t h e m f r o m taking a pending examination. Otherwise they would have to wait four years. 2. Application of veterans' preference, which becomes effectiv* on J a n u a r y 1 next in this State—prior appointment of (a) disabled veterans a n d (b) non-disabled veterans, provided they pass t h s examination—^without at all increasing the number of jobs t h a t competing veterans will get. The broader opportunity, by holding examinations once a yeaar, is deliberate, but the non-increase in the number of job opportunities for those veterans who pass t h e examination is \uiavoidable under this system. The result is mathematical. AN INSIGHT INTO THE RATIOS With an eligible list limited to the number of vacancies, the overall job opportunities for veterans, independent of time, are t h e same as those for non-veterans, since all eligibles get appointments. The constant ratio is 1:1. With a n eligible list exceeding the vacancies, the excess will be non-veterans, because veterans head the list and will be appointed first. The veterans are then favored, directly as the ratio of the number of eligibles to the number of vacancies. Now the ratio is variable and greater t h a n 1:1, in favor of the veterans. The obsei'vations hold for sizeable eligible lists t h a t have at least a normal percentage of veterans. The observations m a y hold for small lists t h a t exceed the number of vacancies, but not if ,the percentage of veteran representation is appreciably subnormal. ^ ^ ( i WILLIAM M. FOSS Sex appeal Is a major weapon used in the campaign to extermin a t e one of the forest's most destructive Insect pests, the gypsy ^ moth, William M. Poss, Superintendent of ttie Bureau of Insect a n d Pest Control in the N. Y. State Conservation Department, revealed when announcing the start of a campaign against these Insects in Columbia and Dutchess * Coimties. The war against the i pests in other Infested areas in the State already is under way, he added. T h e sex-appeal method was used during the summer control work when traps were baited with a liquid permeated with the sexv organ odor of the female moth. • Romantic males, thus bamboozled, ^ were attracted to the traps from comparatively long distance and thus disclosed the presence of the insec tin t h earea. The present campaigns are follow-ups in the Infested districts to determine the Amoun tof infestation and t o pre^ pare for later spraying with insecticides to eradicate t h e pest. Use of airplane for spraying h a s proven highly successful, Mr. Poss said. "Some States have suffered severe damage from t h e gypsy moth," Mr. Poss continued. "But, so far, New York has h a d only bghit, spotty cases. I t is our hope •o be able to wipe out the pest before it can gain a foothold." One of the very dramatic stories about the service which HE sudden increase in the work load of the NYC Civil t h e State renders its people lies the manner by which our Service Commission is only a portent of what must nec- in forests are protected.

Special to Th« L.BADKR ALBANY, Dec. 11—The State Civil Service Commission, in its official promulgation today of the eligible list for Assistant Administrative Director, Civil Service, confirmed the exclusive story published in The LEADER two weeks ago, that Willian J. Murray of Lynbrook is the sole eligible. He is former Acting Secretary of the NYC Civil Service Commission and is now a n Administrative Assistant in the NYC Board of Education. H i e summary issued by the State Comjnission says t h a t one candidate passed, 19 failed, 2 were disqualified and 20 were disapproved, making a total of 42 applicants. The open-competitive test was held on July 21 last. The salary range is $6,700 to $8,200. The State Commission may make an appointment if it so desires, but, since there are fewer than 3 names on the list, may continue the employment of the provisional incumbent, J. Palmer Harcourt. As Mr. Harcourt has filed an appeal from the rating and is a war veteran, if his appeal is granted and his contentions sustained, he would go to the top of the list. He was one of the 20 accepted candidates. The promotion is as Assistant to Administrative Director Charles L. Campbell. Four Principal Changes Discussed at Conference Of Retirement Croups Special to The LBADER ALBANY, Dec. 11—^Representatives of various groups of members of the New York State Retirement System, meeting here with Edwin B. Kenngott and other officials of the State Retirement System, discussed recodification ©f the State Retirement Law. Dr. Prank L. Tolman, President of the Association of State Civil Service Employees, suggested a number of changes intended to protect fully the members of the System. Following the meeting on recodification of the Law, a number of the representatives remained to suggest ways and means of promoting liberalization of the statute at the coming session. Richard Hall, Chairman of the New York State Public Welfare Employees, Syracuse, acted as chairman of the meeting and there was a general discussion as to future action. The 9 Points Discussed William P. McDonough, Executive Representative of the Association of State Civil Service Employees, told of the Association's program of 9 points brought forth by a special committee of the Association in 1944. He stated that the Association has presented this program to the Governor and to the Comptroller as embodying desirable changes in the State Retirement Law to bring it in line with sound concepts of social security. Urged particularly were the minimum pensions, separation benefits, increase in ordinary death benefits and optional retirement after 25 years of serviice. Reduction of interest rate on loans of members, insurance of loans and other improvements were also part of the Association's program, Mr. McDonough said. • Committee Membership The Association's special committee on liberalization of the Retirement Law has been engaged in promoting the Association's program since September 19, 1944 when the first report was made public. This committee is composed of Charles C. Dubuar, Chairman, Theodore Becker, Leo M. Britt, Charles H. Foster, Leo P. Gurry, Jesse B. McFarland and Milton Schwartz. 3 Are Appointed To Job Council Special to The LEADER ALBANY. Dec. 11—Governor Dewey today reappointed Harold J. Gamo, of NYC, and John L.

The Association of State Civil Service Employees SALARY PROPOSALS T HERE were many resolutions relating to State salaries approved at the annual conference of the Association. It is ray purpose to discuss some of these from time to time in this column. I have already spoken of a major salary proposal; the cost of living adjustment proposal -and urged its strong support by every member as the first objective of the Association this year. I pointed out the probability, if not yet the certainty, of inflation. In this proposal we are asking not for a wage increase but simply for the same real salary as we received on the average during the years 1935-1939. I emphasized the hardships we experienced after World War I when the salary dollar had less value than the normal 50cent piece. It should be remembered that this proposal is nearly as old as the career law itself, that it has generally been approved by the legislators, that it once was a leading plank in the republican legislative program, and it has worked well in the cities and states where it is in force. Time and One-Half Time and a half for overtime work is so common and so just that no argument for this almost universal wage policy should be necessary. Indeed the chief reason for the proposal is no to encourage overtime but to abolish it wherever possible. The enactment into law of this proposition will do more to eliminate overtime than any measure short of the absolute prohibition of overtime work by statute. "Time" Increments In the institutions payment of "time" increments after 5, 10, 15, 20 and other periods of service was the rule until Mental Hygiene Hospital employees were put under Peld-Hamilton salary schedules. There has been much complaint by older employees of their sacrifice of their vested rights and the proposal is now made for the payment of an increment to each employee in the State service who has served at the present maximum salary for five years, and t h a t similar single increment be paid each five years thereafter. It should be noted that these "time" increments would be given to all State employees, departmental as well as instiutional. Whether such increments should be retroactive and based on the total years of service, will have to be worked out. If so, an employee who retires after 35 years of service would receive a total of eleven or twelve increments. Proposals that will be discussed in future weeks include: Equal pay for equal work for men and women. Adequate salaries for registered Professional Nurses. Adequate prison guard pay for attendants at Dannemora and Matteawan and at the Women's Prisons. Research A mqst important proposal is for the establishment of a Salary Research Office in the Headquarters of the Association. The resolution directs the officers of the Association to establish and maintain the necessary facilities for the preparation of wage and employment data for use in conferences with the Crovemor, the Legislature, and with Administrative Agencies. I know from experience in the Salary Standardization Board how essential such a basis of fact is to any solary adjustment. Any appeal is usually just as srtong as the wage data presented, and that data unfortunately was mostly either totally absent, woefully incomplete, obviously partisan or absolutely incorrect. I shall do my utmost as President of the Association to establish on an eduring foundation a n able Salary Research Comimittee with skilled leadership.

Reverses Lower Court When the case got to the Court of Appeals, however, the story was difficult. Referring to the conduct of which the lower court fotmd the employee guilty, the higher court commented: "That formulates a charge other than the one made. Of that newly formulated charge the petitioner may or may not be guilty. It was not the charge litigated. * • The Legislature has been explicit in forbidding the removal of a veteran except for incompetency or misconduct shown after a hearing 'upon stated charges, and with the right to such employee or appointee to a review pursuant to article seventy-eight of the Civil Practice Act.' So careful has been the Legislature of the rights of such a veteran that it has made special provision that the burden of proving incompetency or misconduct shall be upon the person alleging it. In view of that we may not say that one charge may be made and t h a t the accused, after faithful performance of his duties for almost a quarter of a century, be found guilty of another. We may not say that although the only proof adduced is that the accused did not do that which is charged, that nevertheless he may be dismissed from service." The order should be reversed and the determination annulled, with costs. Aocordingly, the Court of Appeals reversed the deqision of the couit below and ordeived ttie reinstatement of the veteran.

The regulations had been many months in coming, and their issuance at this time, it is anticipated, will reduce the number of complalnte which have coane from employees because of the lack of uniformity which existed under the former rules, and because of the long period of time during which employees were kept on "tenterhooks" awaiting the new arrangements.

Saunders, Treasurer. a f t r e the Commission h a d put together a tentative version of its proposed regulations. The Letter of TransmiBBion to Departments There Is transmitted herewith a d r a f t of the Attendance Rules for institutional employees in New York S t a t e departments, which embodies the most recent thoughts of t h e Civil Service Commission. The Commission wishes you to note particularly the changes made in the text, subsequent to its conference with the representative of the heads of the departments concerned, and to submit any suggestions or comments on the Rules. These changes in text are listed below: 80 t h a t tile principle involved wfll be consistent with t h a t contained in the first sentence under the vacation rules for permanent eimployees. Furthermore, there was passed In 1945, a law, designated Chapter 577, permitting appointing officers to grant sick leave for per diem employees up to a maxim u m of 30 days a year. 9. LEAVE DUE TO DEATH OR SERIOUS ILLNESS IN IMMEDIATE FAMILY O F EMPLOYEE: The number of working days granted with pay for such a b sence was changed from 3 to 4 days. There was also added to the definition of the immediate family of an employee, the word "grandparents." 10. LEAVE DUE TO INJURY OR DISEASE INCJURRED IN THE PERFORMANCE OF DUTY: (Third sentence) The recredlting of earned sick leave consumed during absence because of Injury incurred in performance of duty h a s been made mandatory by the RULE I 2. WORKING WEEK: The department head (instead of institutional head) shall establish the working week. The institutional head still continues to establish the beginning and ending of working hours, a n d the time off for meals, but such determination shall be subject to the approval of the department head. It is thought that this change will tend to produce uniformity in hours of employment. 8. OVERTIME: (First paragraph, second sentence) T h e revamping of this sentence retains t h e original thought but makes t h e wording consistent with the language used in the third paragraph on Page 3 of the Rules, which paragraph begins with the words, "Because of the n a t u r e (Third paragraph) There was added to this paragraph the words except as required and approved." This permits the appointing officer to use discretion where, in unusual situations, h e deems it ad«visable to make a n allowance in overtime for travel. 5.

Mental H y d e n e and Social Welfar* FOREWORD In promulgating the Attendance Rules for institutional employee*, the S t a t e Civil Service Commission is mindful of the existence of special laws, such as t h e Mental Hygiene Law, Correction Law, and others, which give definite powers to administrative officers and certain rights and privllegee to the institutional employees. Correspondingly, there is no i n tention on the p a r t of the Civil Service Commission to include in the Rules any- provisions which may be in contravention of existing statutes. The State Labor Law places definite restrictions upon the m a x imum number of days each week and of hours each day t h a t persons m a y work in the ward, guardv and similar services in the institutions covered by these Rules.

"In recognition and in appreciation of their services, I have requested t h e heads of all State departments t o treat the Monday b e f w e Christmas, December 24, and t h e Monday before New Year's, December 31, as holidays for State employees, and t h a t compensatory time allowance be made for those employees who are required to perform their duties on these two Mondays (meaning those employees in State institutions.)
