No Delay Tolerable
In NYC Pay Raises
' J ' H E $18,500,000 pay raise voted by the Board of EstiJ mate to the 33,000 operating employees of the Board
of Transportation established the strongest kind of precedent
for granting the pleas of all the other NYC employees for
higher pay.
The necessity of meeting the requests, in function, if
not in degree, can not be sensibly denied. In fact. Mayor
O'Dwyer has taken a forward step in appointing a committee to weigh the various requests, and recommend what
unified course the City can follow. That the Mayor desires
to award salary increases may be taken for granted, for
he has consistently demonstrated not only a fair, but an
enlightened labor policy.
The transportation increases constitute a yardstick
to which the City administration stands committed. The
decreased purchasing power of the dollar requires that the
salaries be increased to a degree equal to the reduction in
real wages. It is not a question of whether at all, only of
hoiv much.
Prompt Raises Necessary
The employees themselves have received beneficial
treatment from the City. The relations between employer
and employee are of the compionable type, the kind that
makes for maximum morale. This has continued, despite
the suffering of the workers, with backs forced against
the economic wall by factors wholly beyond their control.
Public employees are appreciative, they know who their
friends are, they sense in such progressive measures as
the recently-adopted health insurance plan, a warm interest
by the City in their welfare, but there is a limit. The quality
of service to the City is bound to drop, by the very laws
of human nature, if financial worries over being able to
feed and house one's family and one's self are to torment
the minds and thus undermine the efficiency of employees.
The lowest paid, the last to benefit, the public workers
must not be asked to endure burdens beyond human strength.
The committee studying the overall salary situation,
on the broad scope that avoids danger and unfairness, must
hasten its efforts. The moment is tense. The consequences
ol" delay can become disastrous.

STARTED my early life with
* medical people," says Mrs.
Marie A. Owen, "so it seemed
n a t u r a l t h a t I should become a
nurse."
A native of Buffalo, she received
her early education in the western p a r t of the State a n d later
was graduated f r o m the Presbyterian Hospital School of Nursing
in Chicago. She has specialized
in the industrial field of nuising.
Her work h a s been mostly organizational and supervisory.
She
keeps a home and, when there is
time for relaxation, enjoys k n i t ting, reading and s t a m p collecting. She also enjoys t h e theatre
and sports.
For the past 17 years shs h a s
been associated with t h e Long
Island S t a t e P a r k Commission as
Supervising Nurse at Jones Beach
State P a r k and h a s become deeply interested in t h e local chapter
of the Civil Service Employees
Association, Inc.
At present, she is Secretary of
t h e Long Island Parks Chapter. ,
Unity of Purpose
Speaking of her Association activities, she says: "I a m a novice
with m u c h to learn, but I feel
a unity of purpose in serving not
only the S t a t e employees, but t h e
State as employer is t h e only way
to solve t h e m a n y problems of
both, and this is what t h e Association is doing by seeking good,
sound legislation and by conferences with officials. J u s t now I
am interested in bringing uu t h e
membership in our chapter, because I realize t h a t the strength
of the Association depends on t h e
strength of each chapter.
"I feel t h a t being a member of
the Association is a privilege a n d
t h a t this privilege should not be
used as a license to gain any selfish personal end. We should
work for the good of all. Cooperation between employer a n d
employee. Honesty in our service
to t h e people of the State should
be our motto."
NYC Should Create
Merit Award Board
Federal Exams
To Be Tougher
Than Pre-war
N
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29 — Not
all of the Federal war service
appointees will have t h e opportunity of competing for their jobs
a n a permanent basis during the
fiscal year 1947. I n f a c t , It will
take at least two years to complete the job of reconversion. I n
the meantime some war service
appointees will lose their jobs
because of reduction in force
War service appointees
are
vitally interested in knowing what
s t a n d a r d s they will have to .Tieet
when they take examinations All
standards will be at least as high
as those prevailing prior to t h e
war, said the U. S. Civil Service
Commission. In m a n y instances,
they will be higher.
There are some persons holding
war service or temporary appointments who do not measure up to
such standards, the Commission
admits. Unless these persons can
bring themselves to the place
where they can meet such standards, they will not pass the ? x t t m inaiions. And if they do not pass
the examinations, they do not, of
course, have any chance of remaining in their jobs on a n indefinite basis, warned Commissioner Arthur S. Plemming.
OW that the New York State Employees' Merit Award
Board has been appointed, to reward unusual and
meritorious suggestions and accomplishments of State
employees with cash awards, salary increases, medals
and certificates of merit, NYC and other cities of the State
should inaugurate the same type of encouragement and
recognition.
Having originally proposed the creation by the State
of such a Board, The LEADER now strongly urges that
the NYC Council enact a local law to establish a similar
Board and recommend that the Board of Estimate make
an appropriation to finance the awards. The State did
that by acts of the Legislature amending the civil service
law and voting the Board a modest appropriation.
The proposal t h a t NYC should follow suit is in line
with having the metropolis
a municipal example.
MutualsetProfit
It is foregone iliat the State itself will profit by its
initiative, even moi'e than the employees rewarded, since
improveil methods and procedures -are bound to result,
and even greater personal efficiency by employees generally stimulated. This was the splendid experience of the
Federal goveiiunent, whicii inaugurated a comparable
plan during the war.

Published every Tuesday, by

Tuesday, OcloWr 29, 1946
S p e c i a l to T h e
LEADKR
READER, referring to our
column of October 15 dealing
with classification under Sections
49 and 49-a of the Civil Sei-vice
Law, h a s inquired whether the
reclassification — without—examination provisions of Section 48-a
sanctions the covering of tempor a r y war duration employees into
p e r m a n e n t jobs. On t h e assumption t h a t other readers also may
be interested in t h e possibility of
war duration appointments becoming p e r m a n e n t without examination, a review of the subject
m a y be in order.
Cannot Become P e r m a n e n t
I n the first place, it should be
clearly understood t h a t no temporary appointment can m a t u r e
into a p e r m a n e n t appointment by
a mere lapse of time. A tempor a r y appointee has no tenure of
office. He h a s no rights or status
in his position t h a t cann»>t be
t e r m i n a t e d by dismissal in t h e
exercise of his appointing officer's
discretion. Nor does t h e tempor a r y employee's veteran, status
aid him. The courts have consistently held t h a t a temporary
employee is not entitled t o the
hearing on charges prior to removal accorded to " p e r m a n e n t "
veterans. Legislative a t t e m p t s to
"freeze in" temporary veterans
have been held unconstitutional.
By the same token, temporary
employees occupying positions u n der n o n - s t a n d a r d titles t h a t are
reclassified to s t a n d a r d titles under Section 48-a of t h e Civil Service Law do not thereby acquire
the new titles on a p e r m a n e n t
basis. At best they can continue
therein on the same tempo'iary
basis.
Obsolete Provision Repealed
One common source of confusion was the provision formerly
contained in t h e Civil Service Law
which prohibited the transfei to
t h e competitive class of employees
who did n o t have three years of
previous service in the position
involved. This provision, although
a limitation on t h e right of such
transfer, was often misconstiued
as granting a n authorization for
such a transfer. Viewed from <.he
historical perspective, it is readily
seen t h a t this provision was a n
obsolete carry-over from the early,
transitory period when the "civil
service system" was first adopted
in this State. Accordingly this
provision h a s been dropped f r o m
t h e law by a repealing statute.
However, t h e feeling t h a t this
provision is still in force ann e f fect persists in some quarter.?
along with the old misconception
as to its purpose and scope.
Into Competitive Class
Although temporary appointments cannot ripen automatically
into p e r m a n e n t appointmen<3. it
is possible for employees in e x empt and non-competitive positions to be covered into t h e competitive class.without examination.
I n a s m u c h as non-veterans a n d
persons who are not exempt volunteer firemen have no tenure of
office in exempt and non-competitive class jobs, their t r a n s f t i f b
t h e competitive class with t e n u r e
would, in a sense, be comparable
to a t r a n s f e r f r o m a temporary
competitive class position (lacking
tenure) to a p e r m a n e n t competitive class position (with t e n ure).
T h e courts in this S t a t e have
held t h a t where a person h a s been
legally appointed to a n exampt
or ncm-competitive class position
and such position h a s been reclassified to the competitive class by
the Civil Service Commission, on
t h e ground t h a t competitive examination therefor has become
practicable, the incumbent must
be carried over into the competitive class with all the rights a n d
privileges (including tenure of o f fice) t h a t apply to competitive
class positions. The basis for thi.-?
conclusion advanced by the courts
is t h a t to hold otherwise would
permit a civil service commission
to reclassify a n exempt or n o n competitive employee out of his
job without the consent of t h e
official who appointed him.
I t should be noted t h a t t h e
authority for this type of covering-in is not found in the Civil
Service Law. It is purely judgemade law.
I n conclusion, we have seen
t h a t while a temporary a p p j i n t e e
carmot become a pei*manen': a p pointee without examination a n
exempt or non-competitive e m ployee can become a competitive
class employee without e x a m i n a tion.

CONTACT AGENT EXAM O K.'d
Editor, The LEADER:
H a r r y Newman, in The LEADER of October 22, stated his
opinion t h a t t h e recent examination for Contact Representative,
given by the U, S. Civil Service
Commission, was u n f a i r because,
in his words, "out of 80 questions
asked, 32 contained words t h a t 98
per cent of the candidates never
heard of."
I wonder where Mr. Newman
obtained these figures. Has t h e
Commission released t h e i n f o r m a tion which this sentence appears
to contain? Or is this merely Mr.
Newman's evaluation of the test,
based upon his own obviously u n f o r t u n a t e experience with the
exam?
Almost every exam "held biings
a protest f r o m some disgruntled
candidate. I took the particular
one in question, and did not find
more t h a n four 6r five questions
which were in the least degree
difficult.
Incidentally,

with him t h a t the Contact R e p resentative exam was unfair, not

HEALTH
INSURANCE
PLAN NOW IN EFFECT
With adoption of the Health Insurance Plan by the
Board of Estimate, NYC employees will be among the
first groups to become eligible for the benefits. The payroll-deduction coverage provides for general medical,
specialist, surgical and obstretrical care; laboratory and
diagnostic procedures; periodic health examinations,
therapy treatment, blood or plasma transfusions, eye refractions and visiting nurse and hospital nurse.
The cost of the plan to the employees will range
from $18.50 to $55.50 a year, depending on the number
in the family. The City will contribute an equal amount.
At least 75 per cent of the employees in a department, agency or unit must sign up before the administrative group can be accepted.
Further information may be obtained from the Health
Insurance Plan, 100 Centre Street, Manhattan.

35. "A rule of evidence holds
t h a t possession of t h e f r u i t s of a
recent crime creates a p r e s u m p tion of p a r t i c i p a t i o n
in
that
crime." T h i s rule is (A) wise because i n n o c e n t persons occasionally possess illegal or stolen a r ticles; (B) unwise because c r i m inals keep stolen or illegal articles
until t h e y can be disposed of
safely; (C) unwise because a p e r son m a y merely be holding t h e
f r u i t s of a crime to shield a f r i e n d ;
(D) unwise because such a rule
compels criminals to dispose of the

quickly. An.swers: 34,B: 35,E

No Matter How You Stretch It
2 0 CENTS A DAY
Doesn't Buy Much
You do not h a v e to be a statistician to know t h a t :
Any housewife—particularly t h e wives of Civil Service employees -can tell you right down
to t h e last mill j u s t how f a r 20 cents will go today.
You c a n ' t buy even a q u a r t c o n t a i n e r of m i l k w i t h 20 Cents. I n f a c t , t h e r e a r e pitifully
few t h i n g s you c a n buy with 20 coppers or two dimes or four nickels.
Yet, 20 Cents a Day is the sum total increase in take-home
pay granted to citp
firemen
since 1939.
We r e p e a t t h a t ! Since 1939, t h e s u m total increase in t a k e - h o m e p a y received by our
firefighters h a s been 20 Cents a Day.
And if t h a t needs a n e x p l a n a t i o n , here it is: I n seven years t h e basic salary increase
g r a n t e d city firemen h a s been only 5 per cent of his 1939 pay. T h i s m e a n s t h a t his t a k e - h o m e
wage, including basic salary a n d bonuses, h a s been increased by $3 in e a c h s e m i - m o n t h l y p a y check. T h a t ' s 20 Cents a Day, isn't it?
Let us be realistic a b o u t this. T w e n t y C e n t s a Day isn't a d r o p in t h e bucket c o m p a r e d to
pay raises g r a n t e d in p r i v a t e i n d u s t r y a n d business. Newspaper h e a d l i n e s tell us d a y a f t e r day
of deserved salary a d j u s t m e n t s being g r a n t e d to workers in practically every line of endeavor,
increases t h a t will go a long way t o w a r d relieving t h e h a r d s h i p imposed u p o n t h e middle class
wage e a r n e r by t h e spiraling cost of living.
B u t w h a t about t h e f i r e m a n ? I n s t e a d of a larger paychfeck, h e h a s a s s u m e d a larger
b u r d e n of debt. I n s t e a d of money in t h e be,nk, h e h a s notes to m e e t a t t h e loan agencies every
pay day.
It has been a case of High Morale and Low Pay. Loyal Service Deserves a Fair
Reward,
A Fair Reward is a Living
Wage!

If you would like to know how a fii-efigiiter a n d his f a m i l y live these d a y s of f a n t a s t i c a l l y rirfing living costs on t a k e - h o m e p a y t h a t s h r i n k s e a c h time a n o t h e r price ceiling is t a k e n off,
let u s talk to t h e wife of F i r e m a n J o h n Doe. She is a real, f l e s h - a n d - b l o o d person, not a figm e n t of t h e imagination. We call her Mrs. J o h n Doe, i n s t e a d of h e r real n a m e , because h e r
experience is typical of t h a t of t h o u s a n d s of o t h e r fire wives.
Mrs. J o h n Doe's h u s b a n d is a first grade fireman. T h e y h a v e two children. Every fifteena n d - a - h a l f days h e r h u s b a n d receives a gross t a k e - h o m e pay of $145.83. Deducted f r o m t h i s

pay, leaves Mr. a n d Mrs. J o h n Doe $i 14.68 to live on for two weeks.
We will let Mrs. J o h n Doe t a k e u p t h e story f r o m h e r e :
-How do we manage?
Well, we just don't. I try to budget, but before the next pan day
comes 'round, I find I have to borrow from my mother.
That means more debt and usually a
larger loan the next time my husband has to go to the credit
people.
''Here's what it cost us to live, even with scrimping and scraping: Rent, figuring half our
monthly rent, is $30 for the two-week period. Milk costs $3; meat, when we can get it, $20;
bread and groceries, $25; vegetables, $9; laundry and tailoring bills. $8; gas and electricity,
$5;
clothing and shoes for the children, $10; and insurance,
$6. We cut down on cigarettes,
but
we can't give them up entirely, so for both of us that's another
$3.
"All told, it costs us JUST TO LIVE $124 from pay day to pay day. That's nearly $10
more than my husband brings home after all deductions
are taken out of his pay. We are
running
into greater and greater debt instead of being able to put anything
away Jar an
emergency. Also, the budget I have given does not make allowances for medical expenses,
church
and charity offerings, gifts for tfye children and school expenses.
Don't let anyone tell you that
firemen's wives feel secure because their h%isbands have CivU Service jobs. When i/ou consider
the nature of a firemen's work, the dangers he is exposed to and general occupational
hazards,
it is just the other way
around."

Now t h a t we have seen t h e economic p i c t u r e of a fireman a n d his f a m i l y , let us look a t
certain cold f a c t s obtained f r o m official records.
While t h e firefighter's salary h a s r e m a i n e d virtually static, t h e cost of living in New York
City h a s risen 48 per cent between J u n e , 1939 a n d August, 1946, according t o t h e B u r e a u of
Labor Statistics. Considering t h e publicly-acknowledged d o w n a r d bias of t h e B u r e a u of Labor
Statistics, t h i s e s t i m a t e m a y be a d j u s t e d in t h e light of o t h e r surveys so a s t o a d d a n o t h e r 5
per cent, bringing t h e a c t u a l increase in living costs in t h i s city as of August, 1946, t o 53 p e r
cent above t h e 1939 figure. A f u r t h e r s u b s t a n t i a l Increase h a s occurred since August, resulting
f r o m t h e Presidential order to decontrol m e a t a n d nearly all o t h e r commodities.
On September
18, last, the New York Times quoted Mayor O'Dwyer as follouis:
"What caused it all v>as the lifting of Office of Price Administration
controls on
cost-of'
living items and other essentials.
It is only natural, when costs go up as high as they have
gone up in the last two months, that workingmen
toiU ask more
money."
Well, t h e u n i f o r m e d m e m b e r s of t h e N e w York f i r e D e p a r t m e n t a r e asking f o r m o r e
money, N O T BECAUSE T H E Y W A N T T O B U T BECAUSE T H E Y HAVE T O . T h e r e a r e a
variety of reasons, almost desperate reasons, w h y firefighters need a salary increase, a n d n o t
t h e least of these is t h e a n o m a l y of t h e i r position. As a group of professional, u n i f o r m e d
workers, they are considered t o be in t h e m i d d l e class economic brackets, despite t h e i r low
salary level. T h e i r families are not entitled to f r e e c a r e in city institutions. T h e y m u s t k e e p
up a p p e a r a n c e s . T h e y are called u p o n to d o n a t e to c h a r i t y . T h e y m u s t pay f o r t h e i r own
u n i f o r m s a n d personal equipment—50 per cent more costly today. T h e y p a y a n d pay a n d p a y . . .
And their only pay boost since 1939 has been 20 Cents a Dan!
