CRANE, President THE LID'S OFF COST OF LIVING SOARS HIGHER AND HIGHER THE CIVIL SERVICE DOLLAR GETS SMALLER AND SMALLER T h e National Government la ripping away all wage controls! Nearly all price ceilings have been removed! All of which leaves people who work for t h e City in a tough spot! A really tough spot, m u c h tougher t h a n those outside Civil Service realize. Yes, we know it's tough for nearly everybody nowadays. With steak at a Dollar a pound, the cost of milk, bread a n d clothing going up, with t h e prices of other commodities keeping pace, there are b u t few of us who fail to feel t h e present-day economic pinch. But unlike Civil Service workers, wage earners in private industry and business have h a d access to relief not available to city employees. Both the S t a t e a n d Federal Governments have set u p machinery by which t h e economic b u r d e n on t h e private worker h a s been a d j u s t e d and lightened through pay increases to m a t c h t h e m o u n t i n g cost of living. At this point, it might be well to mention f o r the record the f a c t t h a t city employees receive a cost-of-living bonus. But, at t h e same time, let us see just w h a t the cost-of-living bonus means in t e r m s of today's Dollar Value. T h e bonus was given to city employees in July, 1944, to help t h e m meet t h e upward trend of prices. Since then, however, living costs h a v e nearly doubled. Meanwhile, workers in prac- • tically every line of endeavor outside Civil Service ranks have enjoyed increased wages, with t h e promise of even greater salary boosts. SINK OR SWIM FOR ALL OF US As Uniformed Firemen of the City of New York, we recognize our economic plight as being the same as t h a t of every other city employee. W h a t is happening to one group is happening to all. T h e case of t h e city fireman is a good yardstick with which to measure city wages in the light of today's economic conditions. T h e city firefighter h a s received a ba.sic salary increase of only 5 per cent in pay since 1939. W h a t this actually m e a n s is t h a t t h e fireman's take-home wage, including basic salary a n d bonuses, has been increased by $3 in each s e m i - m o n t h l y paycheck. T h a t ' s 20 cents a Day, when you stop t o figure it out. Twenty Cents a Day! Not a very h a n d s o m e pay boost, when you consider t h e per-hour pay increases granted to workers in private industry. It's almost tragic when you m a t c h it against the 40 per cent per day increase in the cost of living. I t takes a lot of money to shelter, feed a n d clothe a family. T a k e the case of a fireman with a wife and two children to support—and t h e r e are many, m a n y firemen with more t h a n two children. T h e 20-cents-a-day increase in t a k e - h o m e pay since 1939 does not even meet the increase in t h e price of t h e milk his family needs. You can easily understand why so few firefighters a n d other city workers are able to make both ends meet today. W h e n t h e average city fireman gets through paying t h e r e n t and buying the bare necessities of life, there is little or n o t h i n g left to give him t h a t margin of security which is every m a n ' s right to expect and receive. There was a time when t h e element of security was one of t h e principal attractions in a Civil Service job. I t isn't today, because it Isn't there. For how can a m a n feel secure when h e can't properly feed or clothe himself a n d his family? How can a m a n feel secure with t h e spectre of debt and h a r d s h i p for his family dogging his footsteps and h a u n t i n g his dreams? ORGANIZED LABOR WILL HELP IN THIS FIGHT T h e Central Trades and Labor Council of G r e a t e r New York. American Federation of Labor, is squarely behind t h e move to Improve t h e economic conditions of t h e city worker. T h e Council already h a s gone on record for increased civil service salaries. Here are Its recommendafcions, which will shortly be m a d e to Mayor O'Dwyer a n d the Board of Estimate: To make t h e cost-of-living bonus p e i m a n e n t for all municipal employees. For a 35 per cent increase over present salary schedules for all municipal employees. T h e Central T i a d e s and Labor Council also proposes a special meeting of t h e Board of Estimate to consider its recommendations and w m submit a formal request to t h e Mayor t h a t such a special meeting of the Board be called. It is our belief t h a t no program can succeed, regardless of merit, unless it receives the full support of all interested parties. Our appeal f o r a salary increase for all city employees certainly h a s merit because it seeks only to obtain a m a r g i n of security for a class of workers now facing economic hardship. But It can not succeed unless all of us get behind it. T h e Uniformed Firemen's Association of G r e a t e r New York is solidly In line with t h e program of t h e Central Trades and Labor Council. We ask t h a t all Civil Service groups as well as labor organizations made up of City employees, actively support this progressive move. It's now or never! JOHN P.

Guy DeCordova, President of the Hudson River S t a t e Hospital Chapter, presided in t h e absence of Gordon S. Carlile, whose mother died. Mr. DeCordova gave all h a n d s a n opportimity to express their Ideafi, if they so desired, a n d m a n y did. One of the assertions h e a r d repeatedly was t h a t pressure must be put on the Legislature t o get bills passed t h a t died in previous sessions. These bills were designed to cure inequalities in Mental Hygiene institutions a n d bring better conditions for both employees a n d patients. Farrel Cites Membership William J. Farrell, President of the Brooklyn S t a t e Hospital Chapter, cited the membership gains of the State Association achieved through the Mental Hygiene group, a n d gave statistics to prove how solidly the Mental Hygiene members are behind the S t a t e Association. T h e gain was 283 last year, 533 to date this year, he reported, a n d would reach 700 this year. Joseph D.

He said t h a t there were m a n y issues to be brought up this year, a n d m e n tioned among them liberalization of the retirement plan. He expressed the wish t h a t all members of the staff at S t a t e School join the Association's local Chapter because of the benefits the Association hopes to gain during t h e year.

As you will recall, a t the last a n n u a l dinner of your Association this past F e b r u a r y , Governor Dewey gave his a s s u r ance t h a t the W a r Emergency Compensation would become p a r t of basic salaries In t h e next b u d get for t h e S t a t e fiscal year b e ginning April 1, 1946. He also stated t h a t salaries gencally would be surveyed a n d t h a t present inadequacies in basic scales would be corrected. Remedy for Inadequate Pay ' "I am informed t h a t technicians of the staff of the Salary S t a n d ardization Board have traveled throughout m a n y States surveying salaries paid in private i n d u s try, in Federal service a n d t h e services of other States a n d m i m i cipalities. T h e information concerning salaries thus gathered is presently being compared with salaries for like positions being paid in our State Service. As a taxpayer, as well as an Assemblyman, I a m vitally interested in a t t r a c t i n g to State Service and in retaining the highest type of p e r sonnel, from t h e standpoint of qualifications, training and experience. As a business m a n , I know t h a t efficient personnel means economy in the long r u n .

Mager, Business Manager By Arthur 5. h e appointment of a special committee to consider the overall wage situation of NYC employees by Mayor O'Dwyer augurs well for a general pay raise. That the municipal employees are entitled to it is beyond dispute. The final settlement of the NYC salary question is one which should be made on an equitable basis for all employees. Some employees may not like the new setup, which provides for submission of employee claims through the department heads, but the question of more pay to meet higher living costs is too general to permit continued attempts at piecemeal solution. The fact that such attempts can't solve the problem was the basis of an editorial in a recent issue of The LEADER. What has happened is really the inevitable. The Mayor's committee might well consider sliding scale salaries, based on the retail-price index, with an appropriation included in the 1947-48 budget for the purpose. All employee groups are asking higher pay, some 30 per cent, others 85 per cent, and the united efforts to achieve a deserved end must result successfully, and in the not too distant future, the Board of Estimate can act now. It need not wait upon the Legislature. The State is moving fast in the direction of pay increases, but must have sanction from the Legislature.

Mr. Ritchie wants a bus strike on the 19 lines of the New York City Omnibus Corporation, which are used by a million passengers a day.* The Transport Y/orkers Union of America does not want a sfrike. THE UNION WANTS TO ARBITRATE In the interests of the people of our city, the Transport Workers Union has proposed to the Company that we submit all our differences to an impartial arbitrator for decision. On Tuesday, October 15th, 1946, the Transport Workers Union of America sent the following letter to the New York City Omnibus Corporation: oc Arrogantly, John A. Ritchie has not seen fit to reply to o u r offer. Instead h e has published ads in the newspapers, attempting t o justify his untenable position. If Mr. Rilchiereally believes his own figures and theories, why does he lack the faith to submit them to an impartial arbitrator? ,Why does h e insist o n f o r c i n g y o u o f f h i s buses, instead of having an impartial judge decide w h o is right and w h o is wrong, ^ ^jtve ol V/ot •VLets •Ctv ot^S ot^ twe^ ol te' ase oi ^ot ^^ \3V W e are willing to accept the j u d g m e n t of an impartial arbitrator.
