T h e idea appeals to t h e Association of S t a t e Civil Service E m ployees a n d several regional c h a p t e r s are already organized or planned. W h a t is a regional ciiapter? T o answer this, we m u s t first ask a iiard question: Wliat is a region? Tiie answer Is necessarily vague. A region is a n a r e a t h a t h a s strong common interests. T h e best example t h a t comes to m i n d te t h e "Capital District." Albany Is not Troy a n d Troy is n o t S c h e n e c t a d y , b u t each city is s t r o n g e r and more vital because of t h e neighboring cities. Albany boys a n d girls in large n u m b e r get t h e i r education not only in Albany b u t in Troy or In Schenectady. T h e d o m i n a n t i n d u s t r i e s — S t a t e government in Albany, electricity a n d locomotives in Schenectady, textiles a n d education in Troy— p r o f o u n d l y influence t h e common life of t h e Capitol District. No iiound p l a n n i n g can be done which does not t a k e into accovmt t h e e n t i r e Capital District. I;'. S. LI.SICS SAMK IDEA T h e U. S. Census h a s t a k e n i n t o account this factor in determ i n i n g t h e regions which it calls Metropolitan Districts in New Sfork S t a t e . T h e y d i f f e r e n t i a t e several. I.e., New York City a n d s u r r o u n d i n g country, including p a r t s of Connecticut a n d New Jersey, With a total population almost equal to t h a t of t h e S t a t e itself; o u r Capital District; U t i c a - R o m e Metropolitan District; Syracuse M e t r o p o l i t a n District; Rochester Metropolitan District, and t h e B i n g h a m t o n Metropolitan District, including B i n g h a m t o n with its f o u r neighboring villages. E a c h of these Metropolitan districts h a s very definite and diff e n t characteristics. No one could be mistaken f o r a n y other. T h e proposed Civil Service regions follow t h e s a m e general p a t t e r n . T h e r e is t h e B u f f a l o region, a n d t h e Central New York region, w h i c h are already functioning. T h e New York City C h a p t e r is really a regional Chapter. A M I I X R N ; F O R ISOI.ATION T h e purpose of a regional c h a p t e r is to overcome t h e isolation of t h e various chapters, to i n t e g r a t e a n d t o reinforce t h e e f f o r t s of all c h a p t e r s in a geographic i-egion; to promote better u n d e r s t a n d i n g of t h e problems of promoting t h e common interests of employees a n d m a k i n g possible increasingly intelligent service to all t h e people Of t h e State. As Clarence S t o t t of t h e B i n g h a m t o n group defines i t : " T h e regional organization is a bridge designed to p e r m i t t h e flow of t r a f f i c in ideas f r o m each c h a p t e r to all of t h e others and between all of t h e c h a p t e r s a n d the S t a t e Association at Albany." W h a t does t h e regional organization m e a n to t h e local c h a p t e r s ? I t m e a n s added power and p u n c h to each chapter. T h e various local c h a p t e r s become more articulate, more intelligent, more alive. P r o posals are carefully examined, debated a n d perfected. T h e c o m m o n opinion a n d t h e common will of t h e members receive definitions a n d a d d e d emphasis. By t h e same process t h e wisest propo.sals are chosen a n d t h e partial and biased ideas are discarded. T h e wheat Is winnowed f r o m t h e chaff.

CIVIL SERVICE ATTENDANCE RULES ON MARCH 30, 1944. Section 10 of t h e Civil Service Law wa^ • m e n d e d to authoris^e a n d require t h e Civil Service Commission to a d o p t rules governing sick leave, vacations, time allowances a n d o t h e r conditions of employment affecting employees in t h e S t a t e Bervice. L 1944, c h a p t e r 372. T h e m a n i f e s t purpose of t h e law and t h e rules to be f o r m u l a t e d was to establish u n i f o r m i t y of practice and equal consideration of « n employee's needs and privileges wherever h e might be employed In t h e S t a t e service. T h e need was obvious a n d acute. Tile Civil Service promptly began work on rules for employees In institutions a n d f o r employees in t h e S t a t e D e p a r t m e n t s . Tlie first d r a f t of t h e proposed rules did seek to establish uniformity. I t was definite as to working hours, vacations, sick leave, etc. T h e n something happened. After long delay a new and d i f f e r e n t d r a f t was prepai-ed. E x a m i n a t i o n showed t h a t t h e definite provisions h a d been watered down a n d t h e u n i f o n i i i t y h a d evaporated. I n n e a r l y all i m p o r t a n t m a t t e r s t h e old vicious system r e m a i n s : t h e rules are whatever t h e liead of t h e D e p a r t m e n t may determine « n d decree. ASSOCIATION VOICES R E P E A T E D DISSENT T h e Association of S t a t e Civil Service Employees h a s repeatedly registered its dissent in respect to t h e proposed rules. I t insists t h a t t h e purpose of t h e rules be u n i f o r m i t y of t r e a t m e n t of all employees. S u c h m a t t e r s as t h e working hours a n d t h e work week c a n n o t be toy-passed in a n y reasonable code of rules. U n i f o r m rules for all S t a t e employees is a " m u s t " principle which cannot be compix)mised In any personnel p l a n for t h e State. I suggest t h e following s t a t e m e n t of principles to be embodied tu the rules a n d to be used as a touchstone in their i n t e r p r e t a t i o n : I t is the piu-pose of these rules: <1> To establish u n i f o r m practices in the various d e p a r t m e n t s a n d institutions as to working hours, vacations, sick leave, overtime credit, etc.. a n d (2) To provide for m a x i m u m efficiency a n d economy in the S t a t e service by reasonable consideration a n d prevention of fatigue, ill health, bad working conditions and other preventable h a n d i c a p s to good work. REVISION OF RULES No revision of these rules or t h e exercise of any discretionary power conferred by these rules shall be effective until approved m u t u a l l y by t h e proper a d m i n i s t r a t i v e officers, a n d by t h e recognized representatives of the employees involved. Tliese rules m a y be suspended only in an emergency to the e x t e n t made necessary by the n a t u r e of t h e emergency on written request by t h e h e a d of a d e p a r t m e n t , with approval of t h e Civil Service Commission. If these principles are sound, and we believe t^hey are, t h e y m e a n l!he restoration of definite provisions concerning hours of work, t h e work week, sick leave, applying to all S t a t e employees wherever employed.

Bradley (Ret.), MUitary Editor N. H. Masrer. Businesa Manager By H, J, TUESDAY, MAY 7, 1946 M EMBERS of the NYC Employees Retirement System, who did not select the 55-year retirement plan, have until October 1 next to do so, under a new law and •hould seize this splendid opportunity. They number now about 30,000, or one-third of the total. Every so seldom a law is passed opening this possibility, otherwise exercisable only at entrance. Four yisars have passed since the 55-year option was previously opened up. There is no assurance that the widened opportunity will recur. Additional cost to the member is normally small, but, small or large, remember that the city more than matches every dollar the member puts up. To elect the right to retire at age 55 with increased service fraction, file Form 74. To members who have just entered city service, the cost is slight. For example, at entrance age 25, a male Clerk, instead of paying 4.30 per cent of salary for the age 60, 35-year, half-pay benefit, would pay 6.45 per cent of salary for the age 55, 30-year, half-pay benefit, could pay it for five fewer years, and would be in position to draw half pay five years sooner. For entrance age 40, corresponding rates are 5.45 per cent and 8.05 per cent. An employee who has contributed at the lower rate for years, and now elects age 55, would have to make up his arrears by the time he reaches age 55. Many employees with long service, and past age 55, will find it interesting from the viewpoint of contributions as well as benefits, to consider the age 55 and 30-year, half-pay benefit. For example, a Laborer, age 58, with 30 years of service, may add 10 per cent to his account, retire in 30 days, draw half pay three years sooner and contribute three years less. Likewise, a Clerk, age 60, with 30 years of service, may add 1 / 6 to his account, retire in 30 days, draw half pay five years sooner and contribute for five years less. A member over 55 who completes 30 years of service with contributions on the age 55, 30-year, half-pay basis, if he completes 30 years of service with contributions on the age 55, 30year, half-pay basis, if he does not retire, may elect to discontinue contributions. Whether or not he so elects, the city will continue to add its 1 / 1 2 0 pension for each future year. Isn't that a swell proposition? State Standardization Appeal Must Be Heeded The State Association is continuing to appeal to the Salary Standardization Board to correct difference in classification and standardization of persons doing the same type of work. For instance. Power Plant Helpers apparently appear at times under Feld-Hamilton service and grade and other times as "N.S." (non-statutory) and still others, as laborers. The Association states: "Nothing but trouble is caused when some employees holding the same titles are under the Feld-Hamilton law while others doing the same work under the same title are in non-statutory positions with a difl'erent civil service classification." The Association urged that steps be taken to place all the employees, where such condition exists, in the appropriate jurisdictional classification, so that they may all be allocated to the same gi-ade. This is an objective that admits of no denial, and the recommended step toward scientific classification should be taken withoul; delay. SPENCER C. YOUNG As treasurer of the City of New York, Spencer C. Young, Is one of t h e "spendingest" m e n in t h e world. A little over 980 million dollars a year passes t h r o u g h his h a n d s as h e supervises t h e collection of all t h e money t h a t comes in a n d t h e money t h a t is spent by t h e city. He's been a n employee O'f t h e city since 1922. I n t h a t year h e was appointed to t h e Comptroller's Office f r o m an eligible list. (He was married on the same day t h a t he was certified for t h e job.) Two more civil service e x a m i nations in which he placed f i r s t on t h e list resulted in his promotion to assistant chief of t h e Real Estate Bureau in 1930. I n 1935, he was m a d e chief of t h e Bureau of Municipal Investigation and Statistics of t h e Comptroller's Office. T h e r e h i s job was to see how and why t h e city's was being spent—a logical stepping-stone to his present job. Immediately before entering t h e Comptroller's Office, Mr. Young held a variety of jobs i n private Industry which gave hint a valuable perspective on people a n d business methods. A World W a r I Vet Three weeks a f t e r U. S. entered t h e last war Mr. Young enlisted a n d served as a signal q u a r t e r master on t h e U. S. S. Seattle until September, 1919. Since t h e n h e h a s been active in veterans' affairs. I n 1934 he was C o m m a n der of F r a t e r n i t y Post, American Legion, a n d held various offices in t h e Kings County Legion. I n 1933 he was S t a t e vice-commander of t h e Legion, and t h e next year was appointed c h a i r m a n of t h e Radio and Publicity Committee. Unlike most men who advance t o positions of responsibility, Mr. Young h a s always saved time for extra-professional activities. We have already mentioned his Legion work. Athletics Is another of his Interests. Before his naval service, he played basketball f o r t h e Long Island Railroad YMCA. He swam for t h e Central YMeiJA and in 1915 was fancy diving champion f o r t h e S u n d a y School Athletic League of Brooklyn. I n recent years h e h a s t a k e n up golf and leaves more active sports t o his son. Spencer, Jr., who is now at Ohio Western University. J u n i o r Is a veteran of t h e last war, a n d spent 15 months in a G e r m a n prison camp a f t e r t h e battle of Kasserine Pass. He's aiming f o r a legal career. As another example of Mr. Young's wide interests, h e r e are some of his organizational affiliations: He is a 32nd Degree Mason, member of Auro G r a t a Consistory, Kismet Temple of t h e S h r i n e ; Kilwinning Lodge, F. & A.

Comment, Please Universal Vacation WE learn t h a t S t a t e employees again will enjoy their customary four-weeic vacations. T h e vacations cyt t o three weelcs during the war w«re restored to tlieir normal duration by Gov. Dewey. The phrase "State employees" Is misleading, as employees in institutions do not get four weelcs nor three weeks. Why not?—E. B. Appeals to the executive, legislative a n d administrative heads by the S t a t e Association have brought great Improvement in hours a n d leaves for State employees since 1930. I n . 1944. the A s t ^ i a t i o n obtained a law proTiding t h a t the Civil Service Commission should establish uniform hours a n d leaves, t h u s giving the force a n d effect of law to regulations governing such Important Looking Inside Exemption of Pensions Plain Duty of Congress WASHIKOTON BUREAU: 1203 Trenton Place, 8,E.; Tel.

The Civil Service Com mission, in December, 1945, issued limited rules covering institutional employees and at t h a t time pro vided a three-week vacation period for institutional workers. This was the same vacation period ac corded to departmental employ ees. T h e Commission h a s not yet issued general rules covering leaves of departmental employees It is expected, of course, t h a t the directive of the Governor to de p a r t m e n t heads providing a vaca tion period of four weeks will a p ply to all S t a t e workers.

IK Agencies No Longer Need Notify Board Of Efficiency Ratings Special to The LEADER Bernard a bill before Congress is so obviously just and • " necessary that it is impossible to present any logical argument against it, and still it doesn't mature into law, there is ample reason to feel aggrieved. Such a situation obtains regarding efforts to have public employees' pensions exempted from Federal income taxation, as Social Security and Railroad Retirement Law pensions are exempted. Public employees are a small percentage of th« 65,000,000 persons gainfully employed in this country^ It is to be feared that perhaps this relative smallness MI responsible, more than anything else, for the slowness of both Houses of Congress to recognize a meritorious objective. The immediate beneficiaries would be the former public employees now pensioned, a still far smaller number, so that there is even less political need to worry about the strength of their vote. But basic justice should be strong enough in this country to overcome the selfishness of political motivation, otherwise we are setting a sorry example to the rest of the world. Present Employees Should Back Bills If present public employees who themselves look forward to retirement on a pension would realize that they, in even greater numbers, will be affected, they would join with the pensioned groups in insisting that an exemption law be enacted. Telegrams are being sent to Representatives in hundred lots by pensioned groups, asking for favorable action on the bill newly introduced by Representative William T. Byrne (D., Albany), for a $2,000 exemption. This bill is H.R. 6140. The Association of State Civil Service Employees is lending every possible aid to Mr. Byrne in his earnest effort to get it adopted. More organizations of presently-employed public workers should follow suit, in cities, towns and villages of the State. And, since this is a national project, public employees in other States, and in civil divisions of such States, should do likewise. Then impetus would be given to a bill otherwise possibly destined to languish. Where Right and Duty Meet Short-sightedness by public employees should not be added to political chicanery in I^egislative halls. Organizations of public employees must realize that there are common objectives on which it is not only their right but their duty to unite. The present Federal income tax law allows an annual exemption from taxation, at 3 p.c. of the total amount that the employee contributed, until the cumulative annual exemptions equal the total amount he contributed. This disparity is both inexcusable and diabolical. The exemption of a flat amount, as proposed, in the bill, ahso would end the spurious distinction. Another Bill in House Another bill, introduced by Representative Eugene J. Keogh (D., Brooklyn), would match for public employees the $1,440 pension exemption under the Railroad Retirement Law. Pensioners would perhaps prefer the higher exemption, but all present and prospective ones should unite solidly on the principle of exemption, and could not be much offended whether Congress passes the one bill or the other. The battle is won the moment that a mere minority, though not particularly vocative, sweeps past the barricades of the reactionaries who put political cunning ahead of American justice! ISYC Circus Employees of the NYC Civil Service Commission almost witnessed a n exhibition of fisticuffs when a Commission official and a Public Works employee invited each into the street t o settle their differences. I t started when the Commission official said, "You're lucky you're not working for me." T h e P.W. m a n replied, "Anybody who isn't working for you is lucky." WASHINGTON, May 7 — T h e U. S. Civil Service Commission h a s notified departments and agencies t h a t reports of efficiency ratings to t h e Commission are no longer required. In t h e f u t u r e , agencies will report only cases proposing salary reductions, demotions or separations based on efficiency ratings for the prior approval of t h e Commission.
