AI.BANY, April 9.—Thirty officers, members of the Executive
Committee, and Chairmen of
standing committees of the Association of State Civil Service Employees met at the DeWitt Clinton
Hotel to consider a broad agenda
of interest to State civil service
employees.
Also present were Emmett Duerr,
President of the Ray Brook Chapter, who attended as a Representative of the Central New York
Chapter Conference group. Executive and field officers of the
S t a l e Association's headquarters
0tarr were present, too.
Dr. Prank L. Tolman, President
of the Association, presided.
Dr. Tolman announced t h a t the
'Association Salary Committee is
busily engaged in research and
planing to deal with presentation
on belialf of State employees of
Complete data to the Salary
(Standardization Board in connection with f u t u r e studies of basic
lialaty classes and grades. The
next meeting of the Executive
Committee will be held on May 9.
J o h n T. DeGraff, Counsel to the
Association, reviewed the legislative activities during the session
of the Legislature just closed.
Pay Raise Paramount
Tho Association sponsored more
t h a n 70 measures which would
have benefited all of its members
or certain groups having special
problems. Thirty of the bills
eponsored passed both houses and
were sent to Governor Dewey for
his approval or disapproval. Fifteen bills passed only one house,
either the Senate or Assembly. A
targe number died in one committee or another.
Mr. DeGraff stated t h a t the increase in emergency pay, which
result ed in a 14 to 30 per cent increase over basic scales effective
April 1, coupled with the statem e n t of t h e Governor t h a t he
felt the emergency
increases
Should become a permanent part
Of the basic scales, and the inclusion of the emergency increases
f o r all retirement purposes, were
t h e major gains made this year.
Awaits 30-Day Result
He stated t h a t the full extent
Of progress made in improving
conditions needing improvement
Would not be known until the end
of the 30-day period and the Governor has indicated final action
on the bills before him.
It was t h e general feeling of
t h e committee t h a t substantial
THEODORE BECKER
progress had been made in bringing before elected officials and
citizens generally the need for
liberalization of t h e State Retirement system and that, although
the bills along this line sponsored
this year by the Association were
not enacted, t h a t the way had
been paved for favorable consideration next year. I n addition.
Governor Dewey has assured the
Association t h a t he has directed
Comptroller P r a n k C. Moore to
conduct a study of t h e costs of
the proposals.
Committee chairmen reported
relative to education, publicity,
regional conference groups and
extension of membership to municipal employees.
Special Committee Appointed
President Tolman announced
the appointment of a special committee to study revision of the
constitution and by-laws, as provided in resolution adopted by the
meeting of delegates on February
28: Theodore Becker, Chairman;
Charles H. Foster, William C.
Foss, Robert C. Killough, Paul McCann and C. R. Cox.
Resolutions were adopted calling for a return to the four-week
vacation schedule which was
abandoned during war years, and
also for approval of the operation of offices with skeleton forces
on Saturdays during t h e summer
months without reducing the total
hours per week. The resolutions
will be sent to the Civil Service
Dongan Guild Hears
Talk by Father McCowan
Speaking at a dinner of the
Dongan Guild, the Rev. Joseph
J . McGowan, S.J., described his
experiences as a missionary for
14 years in India and the Philippines. Father McGowan is now
Chaplain of the NYC Goldwater
Memorial Hospital on Welfare
Island.
The dinnea-, held at the Carroll
Club, preceded t h e Guild's m o n t h ly First Friday meeting, presided
over by President Lawrence V.
McCluen. Also officiating were
Mae MacGrOvern, Vice-president;
Michael Carroll, Treasurer and
Mae Murray, Seca^tary.
In illustrating a point on Americanism, Father McGovern drew
on the historic letter of Commander Shea to his son, in which
h e said, "If you are a good C a t h olic, you have to be, as a consequence, a good American." The
Chaplain in his remarks also
noted t h a t the Guild "was built
on faith, and not for social advantage."
He described his work among
t h e sick and inflnn at Goldwater.
He said of a patient, "It is the
merest accident t h a t he is in bed
a n d I am not."
Speaking on the social aspect
of his church, Father McGowan
said: "Among men and nations,
It is historical t h a t the Catholic
Church has been a powerful agent
in the construction of a whole6on\e h u m a n society."

on April 24 at 12:15 p. m. by the
spiritual director, the Rev. Bern a r d J. Fleming, at St. Andrew's

W H A T MAKES A JOB IMPORTANT?
"A HABIT has become widespread of paying supervisors (administrators) in direct proportion to the number of positions they can by
persuasive justification get added to their units rather t h a n in some
proportion to the number they can eliminate and still do the job,"
writes H. S. Person in Advanced Management for December, 1945.
The same criticism h a s frequently been made of the State Service
and it has even been claimed t h a t the S t a t e is more obsessed by this
delusion of size t h a n is private industry.
Is a big book of more value t h a n a small book? Is a big-boned
man of greater potency t h a n a smaller man? Is a long editorial
better t h a n a snappy, short editorial? Is a big State bureau or
division necessarily more important t h a n a smaller one? We think not.
TIGHT, LITTLE COMPARTMENTS
Classification experts like to put jobs in tight, little compartments. They look for criteria t h a t will distinguish positions in terms
of their difficulty, t h e preparation required, the minimum experience
required, the personal characteristics desirable, the "extent of supervision" and the size of the office force. These factors may be import a n t but they are only tools by which some of the characteristics
of the job are determined. The art of classification requires living
with a job long enough to know intimately its nature, its functions,
its potentialities, t h a t is its f u t u r e as well as its past.
Nearly all really big jobs are one-man jobs. The staff of the
top man is nearly always a smaller staff. Policy formation and planning are a t least as important as execution. The general staff wins
the battles as literally as does the field conunander.
CLASSIFICATION AS AN ART
Let's forget about size as the m a j o r factor in determining t h e
value of related jobs. Industry pays men for what they will return
to the corporation either directly or indirectly in profits. Only in
routine standardized work does it use the narrow techniques of
standardization.
, .
I venture to suggest, not t h a t classification is useless or obsolete,
but t h a t classification is truly an art rather t h a n a technique, t h a t
in essence it consists of becoming intimately acquainted with a multitude of inherently different jobs. Its prime use is to fit the jobs to
the able men and women, not to try to fit the employees to t h e
standardized positions or to its formal description.
WHAT EVERY STATE EMPLOYEE SHOULD KNOW
Court Holds Veteran Connot Be Punished
For Matters Hot Proved at Hearing on Charges
By THEORORE BECKER
THE COURTS in the past have
stated the rule t h a t an appointing
officer cannot charge an employee
with one act of incompetency or
misconduct and find him guilty of
another not charged.
Analogous to this ruling is the
recent pronoimcement o^ t h e
courts t h a t an appointing officer
cannot predicate the punishment
for action of which an employee
may be guilty on considerations
not supported by adequate proof.
Veteran Involved
The case arose out of the failure of a Supervisor of Maintenance and Operation of the Department of Pubhc Works in Rochester to take t h e necessary
steps to have the city streets
cleared by snowplows during a
1944 snowstorm. He was charged
with a violation of the department rule requiring snowplows to
be used when there are four inches
of snow on the city streets. Despite warnings by the Weather
Bureau and the snow inspector,
he h a d neglected to order out the
snowplows.
Being a veteran, the emploj^ee
was entitled to a hearing on the
charges before his appointing officer. The hearing was held and
testimony was taken. The veter-
on was foimd guilty of the charges
and dismissed from the service.
Appeal to the Courts
The veteran, taking f u r t h e r advantage of the special rights accorded to veterans for a court
review of the record of the hearing upon which their removal is
based, applied to the courts for
reinstatement. The case was referred to t h e Appellate Division.
The court examined the record
and decided t h a t there was sufficient evidence adduced at the
hearing on the charges to sustain
both the appointing officer's determination that the employee
was guilty as charged, and his
action in inflicting the punishment of dismissal.
However, the court uncovered
a factor which caused some doubt
regarding the propriety of the
punishment imposed by the appointing officer.
Hybrid Basis For Punishment
The court noted t h a t in the decision of the appointing officer
appeared language indicating the
employee's dereliction of duty resulted in a situation which impelled the City Manager to declare a public emergency, and that
"the consequences of t h a t incompetent dereliction of duty to the
public welfare are sufficient to
warrant his discharge from office."
From this last statement, the
court assumed t h a t the punishm e n t of dismissal from the service was at least partly based on
the conclusion of the Commissioner that the public emergency
resulted directly from the incompetency, misconduct and dereliction of duty on the part of the
employee.
But the court could find no
proof in the record f r o m which
the conclusion could be drawn
t h a t the public emergency actually resulted from such a cause.
Public Emergency Unavoidable
On the contrary, the Court ai)solved the employee of all responsibility for the emergency. It
stated:
"It is a matter of common
knowledge, of which the court
takes judicial notice, t h a t the
emergency conditions, to which
reference was made in the decision, were a part of conditions
prevalent throughout a large part
of New York State, which emergency condition could not be
avoided by any means within the
control of Mr. Hanoven (the employee) and the City of Rochester."
Matter Referred Back
Having reached this conclusion,
the court referred the entire m a t ter back to the Commissioner of
Public Works (the appointing and
removing officer) to decide what,
if any, discipline or penalty, should
be imposed on the employee, bearing i n mind t h a t the employee
h a d nqt been responsible for the
public emergency conditions but
had been guilty of a violation of
a departmental rule. (Hanoven
V. Wagener.)

Vetoed as Needless
Speiial
to The
LEADER
ALBANY, April 9 — Governor
Dewey i n vetoing a bill which
would h a v e fixed $1,200 as t h e
m i n i m u m salary of all f u l l - t i m e
S t a t e employees, said t h e m e a s u r e
was unnecessary.
"Presently," t h e Governor said,
"it would aflfect n o employees because n o n e received less t h a n t h e
m i n i m u m specified in t h i s bill.
Moreover, as I r e c o m m e n d e d in
my a n n u a l message in J a n u a r y
t h i s year, the S a l a r y S t a n d a r d i z a tion B o a r d will, in t h e ensuing
year, review completely the salary
schedules of S t a t e
employees.
Legislation of t h i s
character
should await t h e conclusion of
t h e i r labors. T h e bill is disapproved."
T h e bill was sponsored in t h e
legislature by Assemblyman Ellsha
T. B a r r e t t , Suffolk county R e publican.
Officials of t h e S t a t e Association, expressing d i s a p p o i n t m e n t

t h e Governor, said t h a t i h e m e a s ure, sponsored by Assemblyman
B a r r e t t , was designed p r i m a r i l y
to aid S t a t e Troopers. T h e Association h a d hoped for t h e $1,200
m i n i m u m , because with t h e w a r
bonus, Troopers a n d some i n s t i t u tional workers j u s t under t h e
$1,200 figure would have received
almost $1,600 in pay.

Workers reported to work at our

The office occupies two floors
In the building but since this is
a commercial building there was

Mayor's proclamation. We were
sent home one hour after we reported for duty.
We have learned t h a t all of the
employees who wex-e sent home
are going to have this time
charged against their vacation
leave. This ruling will affect approximately 250 employees in
this office and since we do not
feel this ruling is fair in view of
the fact t h a t we turned up to
work but were forced to leave and
t h a t all during the war we
worked every holiday without any
renumeration.

Plea for Patrolman 'Temps*
Editor. The LEADER:
The term of service of 238 Temporary Patrolmen who were appointed for the duration and six
months thereafter will expire on
June 30, 1946. They have served
NYC in the various communities
to which they were assigned weJl.
To dismiss these experienced
police officers when the police department Is in gi-eat need of reinforcement would be not only
unwise fi"om the viewpoint of the
citizens of our city, but unfair to
the men who have sacrificed a
great deal to render a much
needed service during the war
emergency. Seiving at a salary of
$2,000 a year, out of which they
purchased uniforms and equipment amounting to upwards of
$250, they let the opportunity for
earning high war time wages go
by in order that they might guard
and protect the life and property
of our people.
Although some have been in the
service for two years, they now
fa<!e unemployment.
The majority of these men are
veterans of World War 11. As a
citizen, it seems to me t h a t the
sensible thing to do would be to
give a permanent rating to all of
these men who have good, clean
records, and who have proven
themselves capable of filling the
job satisfactorily,
ROSE MARIE GIANGRANDE
OTTO BRANDENBURG
HE'S BEEN a confidant of every
M a n h a t t a n Borough
President
since 1910, but their secrets, if
any, are safe with Otto Brandenburg. No m a n may be a hero to
his valet, but Brandenburg has
been chauffering Borough Presidents around for 36 years and says
"They've all been O.K. I got along
fine with them all."
"My principle." he said, when
asked if he couldn't tell just one
or two anecdotes, "is to keep my
mouth shut and my eyes open."
He's just been honored by the
Greater New York Safety Council
and t h e M a n h a t t a n
Borough
President for driving 1.000,000
miles through City t r a f f i c without an accident or traffic violation.
Family Man
You've probably guessed how he
spends his days off. He piles his
family into his own car and drives
them out into the country. And
while he's reticent about discussing his employers, present and
past, he's voluble about his family.
"My children?" Your reporter
evinced the information about a
son, Robert, now in a West Coast
Merchant Marine Academy preparing for a deck commission in
the Maritime Service. He'll be
back East at t h e Kings Point
School to finish the training
course. Then, in quick suocession.
more information about daughter
Joyce, 21, who does editorial work
for a magazine in the fashion
field. She does pattern layouts.
No Back-Seat Driver
As for driving, he hasn't any
advice to others about how they
can drive 1,000,000 miles without
bumping into another car or into
J o h n Law, but he does t h e driving
for his family. T h e kids or the
Mrs. don't get a chance to get
behind the steering wheel of the
Brandenburg
family
chariot.
Therefore there's not a back-seat
driver in the family.
He's impressed by the power of
t h e press. After his n a m e appeared in the papers, he got clippings from papers all over t h e
country which ran the story of his
awards for the long safe-driving
career.
The city chauffeurs who have
their own little clique in t h e lobby
of the Municipal Building subject

he's been awarded on his jacket;
but he hasn't received them yet.
The Interview came to a quick
finish when Borough President
Hugo E. Rogers appeared from
the elevator all ready for another
safe inspection trip.
before the Board of Estimate,
Justice Daly finds the kind of
hearing intended was not given.
Court's Opinion
Justice Daly in his opinion
said: •
"When the matter appeared before the Board of Estimate on
August 23, 1945 (second time),
counsel for the petitioner argued
it was not possible for the Board
to weigh the evidence and evaluate it. without hearing and seeing
the witnesses.
"The President of the Borough
of the Bronx moved for a hearing
before the board, with the right to
the petitioner's counsel to crossexamine the witnesses and to adduce such evidence as he .may
have available. This was defeated
by a vote of 13 to 3.

Kingston became the first city
to make a decision under the new
Public Welfare reorganization. It
decided to drop the city plan and
go on with the county system. The
bill died in the State legislature,
but there will be just time enough
to cure the defect if the next
Legislature works fast, as the city
Mayor O'Dwyer's drive against
gamblers isn't pi'edicated on any
notion that people can be p e r suaded to give up their ancient
habits. He was a cop, a judge a n d
a Prosecutor too long to have any
such idea. W h a t he aims to do is
to prevent NYC from becoming a
center for racketeers of commercialized gambling.

Kingston has budget difficulties

Promotion Exams A r e
A n Enduring Problem
will be debated endlessly.
The National Civil Service League, in a report, "Employee Organizations in the Public Service," contributes
clear-headed thinking on the subject:
"The inherent difficulty in making promotions is that
intangible judgments are necessarily required from a
superior with respect to the subordinate's ability to control
the conditions and direct the people on a new job. His
(the subordinate's) success on the job in which he is at
the moment engaged is not the primary consideration.
Objective ratings or judgments on the qualities required
for the higher job should be used so far as possible and
only when approximately equal ability is involved should
seniority be a large factor in promotion."
The League admonishes legislators to resist pressure
groups that seek to make promotions automatic, instead
of earned. Administrators in some instances could benefit
by a little admonition, too, including those who may have
exercised personal or political reprisal against seniority.
There is broad room for improvement before we approach
an impeccable civil service; meanwhile we may freely
reproach a peccable one.

Forest and Field Fire Hazards Told

ALBANY, April 9 — Warnings
t h a t the most serious fire hazards
in years will exist throughout New
York State forests and fields
shortly a f t e r the snow is gone this
Spring were issued today by the
Conservation Department.
These fire hazards are intensified by the great amount of
slashings left by heavy lumbering
to meet war needs and the exceptionally lush growth of vegetation during the past two years, all
of which will become highly in-
flammable under the drying-out
influences of low humidities,
bright sun and fresh winds which
prevail during early Spring, KInn
F. Williams, Superintendent of
Forest Fire Control, explained.
"Nine out of 10 fires are t h e
result of h u m a n carelessness in
some form," Mr. Williams .said.
"Smokers who don't put out
matches or burning

material cause about 40 per cent

Chief of D e p a r t m e n t was w i t h drawn.
few m o n t h s ago, Mr. DiFalco introduced a bill to reorganize the
votes of t h e B o a r d by recognizing
present conditions a n d g r a n t i n g
t h e UFOA m e m b e r s h i p on the

Critics of t h e present bill view
it as a n t i - l a b o r , because it reduces
the influence of the UFOA, a n AFL
afaiiate, by splitting t h e vote
among so m a n y . organizations.
They say, "If you're going t o let
every group have a voice o n the
Pension F u n d , why n o t t h e Holy
Name Society, Naer T o r m i d , St.

D u r i n g t h e last season of t h e

bill to e x t e n d t h e disciplinary

W h e n T h e LEADER a n d Fire

a n t i c i p a t e d t h a t he'll follow precedent t h i s time w i t h t h e current

SULLIVAN
WASHINGTON, April 9—The U. S. Civil Service
Commission will not lose any of its authority to supervise
examinations or appointments made directly by Federal
agencies. Acting on an appeal from the Civil Service
Reform Association to protect the Federal Merit System,
President Truman has taken action to assure that interim
appointments, made directly by agencies, are under Civil
Service observation and in full accordance with regulations.
Fears had been expressed in many quarters that
action to reduce the power of the Commission in these
matters would lead to a restoration of the "spoils" system
in the Federal Government. The Commission will control
all examinations and moreover is training the Boards of
Examiners who will function at agencies.
