To Westfleld Board

ALBANY. Feb. 26 — Governor
Dewey sent to the Senate for confirmation the reappointments of
Miss Jean Davis, of Aurora, and
Mrs. Julius Ochs Adler and Dr.
Leonard Blumgart, both of NYC,
as members of the Board of Visitors of the Westneld State Farm.
They were reappointed for full
wven-year terms.
Last year the Legislature created the State Commission Against
Discrimination and charged it
with the responsibility of enforcing provisions of the statute designed to combat discrimination
in employment practices on account of race, color, creed, or national origin.
There was little doubt that this
responsibility covered private employment. However, it was not so
clear whether the Commission
had any jurisdiction in cases of
public employment. In order to
resolve whatever doubts existed in
this connection, the Commission
requested an opinion from the
Attorney-General on this important point.
Based on Constitution
Requested and given this month,
the opinion of the Attorney General clearly indicates that the
State Commission Against Discrimination has jurisdiction over
discriminatory employment p m c tices of "the State, its agencies
and tiie subdivisions of the State."
The Commission had
asked
whether it had jurisdiction to
consider "a complaint relating to
the oflicers and employees of a
New York City Hospital.
The Attorney General called a t tention to a provision of the State
Constitution which provides:
"No person shall, because of
race, color, creed or religion, be
subjected to any discrimination on
his civil rights by any other person or by any firm, corporation,
color or national origin of any
person, deny to such person any
employment, promotion or increase of salary, or disjnlss or
suspend such persons from employment."
Remedies Under Civil Serviee

The Civil Service Law provides
a procedure for remedying a violation of these provisions.
First, any person who believes
he has been discriminated against
In violation of these provisions

He pointed out t h a t the antidiscrimination law was enacted in
fulfillment of the constitutional
provisions; t h a t it declared the
opportunity to obtain employment
without discrimination because of
race, color, creed or national
origin is a civil right; and t h a t
it defined as an unlawful employment practice for an employer,
because of the race, creed, color
or national origin of any individual, to refuse to hire or employ or to bar or to discharge
from employment such individual
or to discriminate against such
individual in compensation or in
terms, conditions or privileges of

as are made from lists subsequently established. If a veteran's
merit and fitness are established
by the appearance of his naane on
"any" list, he "shall" be appointed before any other appointment
is made therefrom on and after
J a n u a r y 1, 1946. Legislative and
administrative machinery for establishing eligible lists h a s long
been in existence.
Such lists are presently available for a great many of the positions which are now to be filled.
The reference to "any list" in the
amendment indicates t h a t it was
framed and adopted "with reference to existing laws, which were
intended to give to it immediate
practical operation" (Peo. ex rel.
McClelland v. Roberts, 148 N. Y.
360, 369).
Clear Indication
A final clear indication that the
amendment was designed to have
immediate application by its own
force to existing lists is found In
the 5-year limitation on the preference to non-disabled veterans.
Such preference is accorded until "I>ecember thirty-first, nineteen hundred fifty, but in no event
for a period less t h a n five years
next following the honorable discharge or release under honorable
circumstances of a member of the
armed forces of the United States
who served therein in time of
war." T h e prescribed date is 5
years from the effective date of
the amendment and t h e limitation is so phrased as to give all
veterans preference for at least
a 5-year period from such effective date. This includes those who
were theretofore discharged in
World W a r II as well as after
service in any prior "time of war"
such as World War I. Those discharged or released a f t e r January
1, 1945, will have five years from
the date of discharge or release.
The others are limited to the period ending December 31, 1950.
If application of the' preference
must await either legislation or
the establishment of new lists, the
prescribed 5-year period would be
cut down by the time consumed
in accomplishing those actions.
T h a t is a result obviously not intended and plainly not permitted

Commons Vfants Civil Servants
In Britain To Be Better Mixers
By G. M. YOUNG
If you watch the London papers
carefully you will come on an advertisement from time to time
saying t h a t on such and such days
the Civil Service Commissioners
will hold an examination for filling so many places in the. Administrative, or Executive, or Clerical
grade of the Civil Service, Any of
the King's Subjects being of the
right age, male or female, black,
white, yellow or red, may present
himself, and the examinations are
designed to give a fair opportunity
to all comers and to exclude the
remotest possibility of political influence. The candidates who come
out highest in this test can within
limits choose their own departments: after a year's probation
they become established, and must
thenceforth rely entirely on their
ofBcial virtues lor advancement
and honor. Every civil servant on
entry is ren\inded t h a t any a t tempt to secure promotion by influence will be taken as a confession that on his merits he does not
deserve it.
Industry, accuracy,
incorruptibility.
The English civil servant has
the highest standard in the world.
But you will hear at times complaints t h a t while examination
may attract the best brains it does
not attract the liveliest characters; t h a t the civil servant is likely
to play for safety and pension:
that he becomes a creature of
precedent and routine; t h a t his
office is his world, and of the
world outside he knows too little.
There is some t r u t h in all this,
and a Committee of the House of
Commons has been busy with
plans for enlarging the outlook of
the civil servant, making him a
better mixer and letting him rub
off seme of his departmental
angles in company with people of
other professions and a different
background.
They are-even talking. I hear,
of a new device: instead of interviewing the candidate for half an
hour, the Civil Service Commissioners are to see him at large,
and I trust, at his ease, in the
country for 2 or 3 days on end
W h a t are the official virtues? and size him up accordingly. It
is a promising idea a n d would not
be very difficult to carry out.
You see, the English civil service is really very small. In figures, it is a million strong, but
t h a t Includes all the postmen, all
the messengers, all the typists and
all the telephone girls. Its thinking part—the administrative grade
—numbered in peacetime less than
1,500; and Whitehall represents
some 500 senior officials who prepare and administer the laws
which are made just across the
way in Westminster.
The tradiUon of the Civil Service is to keep inside its powers
rather than to go outside them.
Britain's local authorities, counties and boroughs, a r e quick to
resent and resist any encroachment on their rights. And. finally,
any excess of authority by Whitehall is certain to produce an echo
in Parliament. So when people
talk of bureaucracy in England,
the answer
"You have just as
much bureaucracy as Parliau\ent
chooses. If you think you have too
much, you must go to Parliaanent
for redr«is. If you won't take the
trouble, thcu you can't complain."

persevering effort he achieved the

Bowling Club League, With one
more round of play remaining,

Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 26—Last call for
State employees to qualify for the
Group Life Insurance Plan of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees without a medical examination!
This provision expires on Feb.
28. after which a medical examination will be required of new applicants. Under the present noexamination waiver

rejected for tliis insurance on the
basis of a medical examination.
Discussing the merits of this
coverage, Charles R, Carlisle, Representative '>f the insurance firm
of Ter Bush and Powell, said•'Since ijae plan started on June
1, 1939, m>^e t h a n $1,500,000 has
been paid to beneficiaries. Claims
are usually paid within 24 hours
of the time the Association or insurance company receives notice
of death. Claims have arisen in
eveJT State institution and department, The Association has in
its files many letters received from
beneficiaries attesting to
the
prompt and efficient service on
claims.
"Because of satisfactory loss
experience under the plan, for the
CHARLES R. CARLISLE
policy year beginning Nov. 1, 1946,
each insured member is given the
$250 additional coverage. For the
policyholder 39 years or younger
this means free additional coverage worth $1.80 yearly."

BILL FOR VESTED PENSIONS
ASKS ONLY SIMPLE JUSTICE
L
EGISLATIVE support ia increasing for the Vested Retirement Pension Bill. It is believed that if State employees will impress on the Senators and Assemblymen
the necessity of this bill, it will be adopted. It is expected that Governor Dewey would sign the bill, despite
the extra cost to the State, which isn't large, because of
the equitable principles involved, already invoked in two
other phases of the Retirement Law.
The purpose of the bill is to have the State recognize
a pension as a benefit bestowed on the basis of annual
member service, and therefore not to be forfeited upon
resignation. A deferred benefit, at age 60, is provided for
those with 5 years or more of member service.
