M A C CURDY'S SURVEY FINDS
OFFICE MACHINES GREAT ASSET
Spfclal to T h e LEADER
ALBANY, July 16—The good
effects of the introduction of business machines to Improve and
speed up the work of the Department of Mental Hygiene were
hailed by Commissioner Frederick
MacCurdy today when he reported
the result of an analysis. The
transition to mechanical methods
in statistics, billing and inventory
is not yet complete, but Dr. MacCurdy looks forward to the day
when it will be.
Better business practices, research and speed-up of work are
well served by the machine method, he said.
The system was inaugurated by
Commissioner MacCurdy after his
appointment by Governor Dewey
in 1943. The statistical work of
the State's largest department and
the 26 mental Institutions which
it administers had grown to unmanageable proportions under the
old system, he said. There has
been a steady increase In the
population of the institutions until now more than 100,000 persons
are imder treatment. The older
methods were designed for an
admission rate of about 6,000 a
year, but the num/ber of annual
admissions is now three times
that.
"The mechanical system wsis
Installed to secure a greater measure of efficiency, and as a saving
to the State," he remarked.
Research Tool
Dr. MacCurdy explained that
accurate statistics showing the
number of -patients in the State
institutions and specifying admissions, discharges, transfers, capacity, and overcrowding are an
important tool of research and
administration. Such figures give
a picture of current and changing
conditions throughout the State
on which plans for personnel, new
construction, maintenance, appropriations, and futiure planning
may be based. "Already the system has proved beyond doubt that
it is as necessary to a large State
department as it is to any other
business," the Commissioner said.
"Valuable information is now
available at a moment's notice,"
Dr. MacCurdy said, and he cited
as an instance of recent check he
made on the apportionment of
chaplains in the 26 institutions.
"A tabulation of religious denominations in an institution of 6,800
patients, which would have taken
weeks by the old method took
exactly 22 minutes."
The importance of the new
system for research work is becoming Increasingly evident, according to Dr. Benjamin Malzberg. Director of the Department's
Bureau of Statistics. By running
punched cards through the tabulators, statistics have already been
rapidly assembled on the relations
between mental disease and such
factors as alcoholism, syphilis, and
education.
Close Checks Provided
Punched cards as a basis for
mechanical tabulation have al-
PREDERICK HacCURDY
ready been made out for all patients resident in or admitted to
State institutions on or after
April 1, 1943, and for all those
discharged or who have died since
that date.
Food supplies at the 26 institutions are now inventoried by
machine in Albany. Accounts are
kept for all food received and
issued and its price. Test machines have been set up at three
Institutions to calculate the per
capita cost and distribution of
many items of food, for all tiie
units within the Institution. The
results of this test will determine
whether or not other similar machines will be installed at all of
the State institutions.
The inventory and cost analysis
record made possible by these machines permits the department to
know at any time exactly what is
available in all categories at
every institution.
Commissioner MacCurdy pointed out that when institutions operate on a fixed budget the central office must be in a position
to judge their requirements when
they are submitting requests to
purchase. He added:
"The system also permits a
quick comparative analysis of the
rate of consumption and cost. It
also serves as a check on the adequacy of the dietary at the institutions."
Similar information will be
provided regarding clothing and
household supplies. With such
knowledge at hand surpluses at
any of the institutions may be
made available to others.

Speoial to The LKADRR
President, The Association of

IS BUREAUCRACY A NECESSARY EVIL?
BUREAUCRACY, as popularly used, is not properly an idea but
ftn emotion. It is not a word but a symbol. It is not a method of
defining a fact or a situation but a metiiod of confusing, pre,iudging
or prejudicing conclu.sions. It is a part of tlie familar red herring
iechnique, designed to gain assent without reason.
, Bureaucracy ha^s long been a term of honor in some countries
with long administrative and civil service traditions. Why is it a
term of reproach in our democracy where honest and efficient public
•erVice is essential to the common welfare?
( • A recent number of the Journal of Social Issues is devoted to
Bureaucracy in Government, in Industry, in Education, in the Army
a n d elsewhere. I t is worth reading for the appraisal of public service
and its comment on civil service.
,<1)
•(2>
(?)
;<4)
FOUR SELECTED CONCLUSIONS
Some of the conclusions reached are;
Many people have a disapproving attitude toward what they
understand of Bureaucracy. This disapproval rests mainly from
hearing the word used as a term of approbrium, and not out of
experience with Government.
The problems of bureaucracy, as tliey appear in business, schools,
colleges, social agencies and other institutions, are very similar
to the problems encountered in government. Bureaucracy is.not
an is.sue between big business and government; it is an unsolved
problem for every large scale enterprise.
The most serious frustrations of public employees seem to arise
because they are not allowed to render the service they would like
to give—the remedy is to increase the opportunity for full participation by the government worker in his ta.sk.
There is no reason to believe that officials in . . , municipal,
county and State offices are any freer from bureaucracy t h a n are
officials of the federal agencies; the actual difference is probably
in the opposite direction.
DEFINITION SUPPLIED
I found no good definition of bureaucracy in the monograph.
My impression is that if you tie up in one bundle all you don't like
about government, all your petty annoyances and frustrations at required procedures, laws and red tape, dump in all the propaganda
against government and public servants, add a good measure of personal feeling and envy of men in high position, and you have about
t h e conglomeration of emotions commonly called Bureaucracy.
If you object to the semantic definition indicated, I suggest a
more accui^ate one as follows:
Bureaucracy is the operation and administration of public office
under the limitations and conditions set by law and official regulations. Public business is not free in the sense or to the degree t h a t
private business is free to do what it likes. The Public Administrator
must serve t h e people under forms and limitations set by law. He has
t h e advantage t h a t he does not serve two mastei-s but only one—the
people. He has the disadvantage t h a t he is restricted to set forms
a n d procedures in rendering t h a t service.
Much can be done to free public service from its bondage to
narrow legalism and precedent. Possibly a main need is, as the
brochure suggests, better understanding and closer relationships t>etween the government and the citizens.
STATE NEWS
HARRY I . SCHWARTZ
ALBANY, July 16—New York
State employees of the United
States Employment Service are
watching with keen interest the
progress in Washington of legislation to speed the return of the
employment agency to State control.
The House of Representatives
accepted an amendment t o the
Labor and Federal Security Appropriation Bill providing fftr ret u r n of t h e USES to the States
by next November 15.
In preparation of such a move,
the State Civil Service Commis.sion has made arrangements to
integrate the employees who have
been hired, or promoted, while the
USES was under Federal control.
Employees who had been hired
f r o m State lists will be treated as
if they had been in the State employ throughout this period, and
those hired directly by the Federal
Government will receive equivalent credit for experience and
advancement under Federal Civil
Service regulations.
With the expanding fimctions
of the public employment agency
in post-war years, it is not expected t h a t de-federalization will
result in any drop in the number
of employees.
State Assn.'s High Ideals
Cited As Outstanding
After having watched the State
scene from the inside for 20 years,
Harry B, Schwartz, for 11 years
Representative of the Buffalo
State Chapter, Association of State
Civil Service Employees,
and
Chapter President, fears t h a t too
many jobs are being put into the
exempt class.
"I a m deeply concemed," he
said "about the number of positions in State service t h a t are
being placed in the exempt class
on t h e supposition t h a t they cannot be properly filled througOi
civil service examinations.
"If this situation continues. I
am f e a r f u l t h a t the merit system
will receive a setback."
Employee Viewpoint Stressed
He has spent considerable time
in studying State personnel problems, and proposed methods and
procedures for remedying inequitable conditions. He has misgivings about any administrative
plan t h a t fails to accord employee
representation or at least fails t o
get employee support, for want of
attention to the employee viewpoint. Said he:
"With respect to personnel

as well f r o m the top down. To
get the worker's viewpoint, to get
his cooperation and goodwill, so
t h a t he will render intelligent
and enthusiastic service day in
and day out, he must be consulted. And to consult the worker is
only respect for a recognized
democratic principle."
The State Personnel Council is
now formulating plans for active
work.
Worked His Way Up
He was placed in an orphan
home in Buffalo when he was 14
months old. He was graduated
from the Immaculate Heart of
Mary Academy, and a d j u n c t of
the orphan home.
At 16 he got his first job with
the New York Central Railroad
as a car checker. While with the
railroad company he atteneded

Hotel Corporation as a room clerk.
While with the hotel h e attended
the Bryant & Stratton Business
College, where he completed a
course in bookkeeping and accounting.
In 1926, he entered State service a t the Buffalo State Hospital
as an attendant.

DR. MARY KIRKBRIDE RETIRES
AFTER 32 YEARS' STATE SERVICE
Spprlal to Tlic LRADKR
ALBANY, July 16 — D r . Mary
Butler Kirkbrlde, 314 State Street,
Albany, retired as Associate Director of the Division of Laboratories
and Research a f t e r 32 years of
service in the State Health Department.
Dr. Kirkbrlde b ^ a n her scientific career at the University of
Pennsylvania. She later studied
»t the Philadelphia Polyclinic and

engaged in immunologic research
with Dr. A. B. Wadsworth at
Columbia when he accepted appointment as Director of the

Her immunologic studies are of
fundamental importance and her

during the war period in her appointment as a member of the
civilian commission on meningococcal meningitis of the War
Department, In 1935 a testimonial
,medal was presented t o her by t h e

For Employees
MOUNTING NEED for more able civil employees to help solve
municipal postwar problems is giving added impetus to established
State and municipal in-service training for public servants, according
to the Civil Service Assembly.
Many of the In-service programs that helped train some 200,000
public employees in 37 States dxu-ing the war are being "reconverted"
to better fill needs of peacetime civil servics on federal, State ami
municipal levels. Though many of these training programs are aided
by federal fimds on a matching basis, a good number of the projects
are organized, financed and conducted by States or municipalities.
All types of public servants, including police and fire personnel,
administrators and public health workers, are being trained by State
and local agencies, such as the Pennsylvania Public Service Institute
and the North Carolina Institute of Government. In-service training
by these organizations has been carried on for several years and is
not to be confused with similar training initiated under the G.I.
Bill of Rights.

UPWA Says Its Policy Was Non-Strike
By CHARLES SULLIVAN
Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, July 16—The
rider to the Department of Agriculture Appropriations bill, calling for the dismissal of Federal
employees who are members of
any union t h a t asserts the right
to strike against the government,
was denounced recently by the
United Public Workers of America. The rider is believed to be
directed against this CIO union,
but a statement by the UPWA
asserts t h a t the union has a nostrike policy and. besides, would
conform its constituion to any
legally
required
technicalities.
This is described by the union as
no change in policy whatever.
The change would dispose of any
strained construction of a regulatory clause in the CIO union's
organic law. Some locals of employees in private industry, e.g.,
cafeteria workers, can strike, imder the constitution's terms, but
the UPWA says it "will not con-

Veterans
Louisiana
On liaises and Vacations
Special to The LEADER
CHICAGO, July 16—^Louisiana
veterans returning to State civil
service jobs will receive pay increases to which they would have
been entitled had they not gone
into military service, the Civil
Assembly reported today.
The new provision by the Louisiana civil service commission
specifies t h a t a reinstated veteran
will be given a raise equal to the
greatest increase received during
his absence by other State employees in the same classification
and department.
If there are no other employees
in the same civil service class, the
returned servicemen's pay will be
boosted two steps up the State
salary scale, or up to the maximum rates for the class in which
h e Is employed.
As first proposed, the rule would
have made such boosts retroactive to August 14, 1945, or to the
date of the veteran's reinstatement, whichever was more recent.
However, several departments reported financial inability to put
the plan in effect on t h a t basis,
so the retroactive feature was
made optional.
Virtually all veterans in Louisiana State jobs will be covered by
the ruling, since Louisiana's civil
service system covers all State
departments and agencies.
The federal government, some
States, a n d a few cities have made
similar provisions for pay increases
to be granted civil service personnel reinstated following military service.
In addition to such pay-raise
policies, some cities are also giving reinstated veterans vacation
and sick-leave credit. When a

An Open Letter to All Men In the Written Exam for Fireman
DEAR CANDIDATES:
Only 4.000 of those who participate in the written examination on July 13 will be permitted to compete in
the physical test and only 1,500 o£ those will eventually be plai?ed on the eljgrible list. It is important to note
therefore t h a t in order to attain a place within the select 1,500 a higrh physical percentage will be required.
This can only be aooonniliHhod by men who are thoroughly. grained since the Strengrth, Afrility and Endurance
Tests are so difficult that men with haphazard or no training usually fall by the wayside.
Only Eight Men Received 100% in the Physical Test for Patrolman
Seven of These Eight Men Were Students of the Delehanty Institute:
ADAM J . AUGUSTINK
THOMAS 0 . GARLAND
CHARLES D. JONEvS
JOHN F. TRUSCH
THOMAS G. CURRY
ROBERT A. HOLT
JAMES MORAN
It is important before starting physical training that all applicants afford themselves a medical examination. Many men who rectived a high rating in the written test f o r Patrolman and who were well trained for t h e
physical were rejected by the doctors for dcffects which might have been remedied had they been pointed
out to them.
Our physicintis will examine you at hours to suit your convenience without charge. If you are found t o
be medically fit. you may, if you desire, enroll for physical preparation at our gymnasium where, as a student,
you will b«! trained to perfect yourself in ea^h phase of the test, the most difficult of which is the Mile R u n .
If you are found to l>e suffering from • physical defect which might result in rejection, you will be BO
advised so t h a t you will then be able to take t h e necessary steps to h a v e the condition corrected.
Our physical classes meet from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.on days and hours to suit your convenience.
My best wishes for your success in the written examination.
Sincerely yours,

ALBANY, July 16—The familiar
pair of golden eagles are again
hovering over Whiteface Mountain after a two-year absence, J.
Hubert Stevens, Secretary of the
Whiteface Mountain Authority,
reported. These eagles were soaring landmarks for nearly four

would come to pick up food left
for them on the retaining wall.
Mr. Stevens said the eagles nest
on Catamount Mountain but spend
most of their day high over Whiteface.

Court to Decide
Right of Police
To Exhort Mayor
The right of a member of the
NYC Podlce Department to speak
up when he has a grievance (similar to the recent action taken by
the city firemen against the "gag
rule" of their department) will be
the subject of a Supreme Court
hearing In Queens today, on a
petition for an order prohibiting
the Police Department from investigating tlae activities of Lieutenant David Fay as President of
the Pension Forum.
The organization is composed
largely of younger members of the
department, who united in an
effort to obtain a lower rate of
pension contributions for police
who have come into the department since 1940,

assignment of police to an 84hour week during strikes.
Inyestiyation Ordered

with departmental penalties for
having wired the Mayor without
having previously notified the
Department of his Intention to do
so, and was summoned for a hearing before Inspector George Mulholland of the Third Division.

EMPLOYEES GET NEW SCALE
The California State Personnel
Board recently acted to make the
$25-$20 emergency salary adjustment part of basic pay scales
and approved a $10 increase in
all State pay ranges, except those
with minimum salaiies of $400 or
jnore a month.
Herbert S. Bauch finds that the
agility of a ping-pong champion
and the vocal mannerisms of a
topkick help him in his present
capacity as vice-president of the
independent Association of Competitive Employees of the NYC
Sanitation Department.
He believes that the city employees should be active and even
vociferous in their efforts for
better conditions, and he's among
the first to raise his voice when
he feels that the clerical workers
are getting less than tlieir just
due.
Recently discharged from military service, he stepped right back
into the swing when he returned
to his clerical post in the Bureau
of Finance and Supply.
I n addition to his enthusiasm
for the employee organization,
he's taken an active part in the
affairs of Sanitation Post 1110,
American Legion. He is a member
of the Executive Committee of
HERBERT S. lAUCH

He was regimental supply ser- Battle of the Bulge before moving
geant with the 361st Engineers half way around the world to
Japan.
His favorite pastime is pingpong and before t h e war he represented Sanitation in the City
Employees Table Tennis League,
Also, he was regimental champion
at that sport.
A veteran of 17 years' service
with the city, he formerly worked
for the Board of Water Supply;
the Triboro Bridge Authority andBoard of Transportation.
