Jobs for 150 Sanitation Men are open now in the NYC
Department of Sanitation, paying $2,280 a year each.
This is a new high figure, as the bonus is now granted to

arising in part because 140 men left Sanitation jobs to
become Patrolmen (P.D.).
T h e r e a r e no educational requirements, but- applicants must

Increased Cost of Liying
Since '45 Cited by Tolman
In Urging Special
SpRclKl t o T h e L E A D E R
ALBANY, Nov. 5—Commenting
upon the teachers' appeal for a
special session of t h e Legislature
to a d j u s t their salaries, Dr. P r a n k
L. Tolman, President of the Association of S t a t e Civil Service E m ployees, stated today:
" T h e Association is in full accord with t h e teachers in their
efi:?rts to secure a fair salary.
There are teachers in S t a t e service. T h e teachers are an importa n t branch of t h e public service
a n d suffer with the S t a t e woikers
generally f r o m an inadequate m come. Public workers are all operating u n d e r similar conditions
of inadequate salaries."
Dr. Tolman stated t h a t the
S t a t e Civil Service
employees
t h r o u g h o u t the S t a t e are anxiously awaiMng a special session of
t h e Legislature to bring relief
f r o m the serious economic plight
of S t a t e workers caused by t h e
increase in cost of living since
t h e emergency bonus declared by
t h e Governor and t h e Legislature
last year. He stated t h a t t h e Association had been looking to t h e
Salary Standardization Board for
action as a result of a n intensive
salary study being carried on by
its staff during past months, b u t
was told by t h e Board a t t h e
Association's a n n u a l meeting on
October 15, t h a t any a d j u s t m e n t s
recommended by t h e Board m u s t
wait upon t h e next Legislatuie.
Delegates Unanimous
Said Dr. T o l m a n :
"The more t h a n 250 delegates,
representing all S t a t e employees
In all S t a t e Services, unanimously
urged a special session of t h e
Legislature a n d a n Increase i m mediately dt 25 per cent in order
to m6et in p a r t at least t h e rise
in commodity prices.
" T h e emergency compensation
granted S t a t e employees by t h e
Governor for t h e fiscal year beginning April 1, 1946, was recommended in early J a n u a r y a n d was
obviously based upon t h e cost of
commodities prevailing in December, 1945, a n d prior thereto. This
was added to basic salary scales
established in 1937. Inability of
t h e Federal G o v e r n m e n t to m a i n t a i n price controls plus t h e removal of controls h a s b r o a g h t
a n d increase In t h e cost of food
of a t least 25 per cent since t h e
present bonus became effective.
We realize t h a t a special session
of t h e Legislature should wait
upon a serious need. T h a t need
is here. I t is not reasonable t h a t
so m a n y t h o u s a n d s of public
workers including teachers should
justly wait for t h e m a n y m o n t h s
which m u s t r e m a i n until t h e next
session of t h e Legislature can

Power of Ideals in Civil Service
A
N AMERICAN historian, E p h r i a m D. Adams, once wrote a little
book on t h e power ol ideals i n American History. H e showed
t h a t t h e story of America c o n t a i n s m u c h of t h e stuff t h a t d r e a m s
are m a d e from, a n d t h a t the m a s t e r d r e a m of democracy is still
p o t e n t in American life.
Civil service c a m e i n t o being as a great d r e a m of a b e t t e r way
of life for all citizens in t h e i r relationships with government. I t
aimed to bring g o v e r n m e n t close to t h e people, by h a v i n g t h e best
qualified people o p e r a t e t h e complex a d m i n i s t r a t i v e m a c h i n e r y of
g o v e r n m e n t in t h e peoples interest. It aimed to t a k e control of
t h e public agencies out of p a r t i s a n politics a n d to m a k e public
service a respectable a n d i m p o r t a n t career open to all who could
prove t h e i r fitness f o r office. T h e back door to p a t r o n a g e was closed
a n d b a r r e d and a new broad p a t h to a n open f r o n t door was f r e e
to everyone on t h e sole basis of his ability a n d capacity t-o serve t h e
people. Public service was recognized as a public t r u s t . Service t o
t h e people was t h e highest privilege a n d d u t y of all civil service
employees.
IT hat (livil Si'rvicv Plan^ Is
I have spokqn of civil service as a n ideal or a dream. It was a
bold t h i n g in those days even to d r e a m of t h e end of t h e spoils system
a n d t h e b i r t h of t h e service-to-the-people s t a t e . T h e r e m a r k a b l e
t h i n g is t h a t in New York S t a t e so m u c h of t h e d r e a m h a s come true.
Civil service as it is in f a c t , is a p l a n for t h e efficient, n o n p a r t i s a n operation of t h e public business of t h e S t a t e . I t is a plan
t h a t works—a p l a n t h a t works well w h e n t h e law a n d t h e principles
behind t h e law are observed—a plan t h a t is a s a f e g u a r d to t h e
people even w h e n l i t t l e - m i n d e d m e n t r y to b r e a k down t h e civil
service for brief personal or p a r t y a d v a n t a g e .
Public a d m i n i s t r a t i o n h a s become largely a science based on t h e
efficient a n d h u m a n e t r a n s a c t i o n of t h e public business. I t h a s its

Job Exchange Needed
For Ex'U. S. Workers
OT»HE increasing rate at which Federal employees who
X were hired for the war period are losing their jobs, a
fact accentuated by the dropping of 10,000 paid employees of the OPA Local Boards, points up the need of a
closely-integrated job exchange.
A central clearing house, coordinating the activities
of the USES, the U. S. Civil Service Commission and the
departments and agencies themselves, while it would not
create jobs, would improve the job prospects of those
who are the sufferers under U. S. reductions in force.
The USES obtains job in private industry for applicants. It reports that in some categories, for instance
clerk, there are already far more applicants than' jobs.
Even so, the work that clerks performed in the w^ar
agencies is well known to the Fedej-al Government and
is a matter of official record. The selection of best qualified personnel would be enhanced by coordinated effort
between the U. S. and the USES, even with the USES
returned to the States, as it is to be on November 15. The
exchange of data between States and the U. S. Government, which had a heartening upswing during the war,
may well be continued, pai'ticularly in this good cause.
Truman and Governors Can Help
So far as present methods permit, the U. S. Civil
Service Commission is doing what it can to refer dropped
employees to jobs in other goveinment departments and
agencies, but is handicapped by the fact that nearly all
of these units are reducing the number of their personnel.
Both the cessation of need of services and enforced reductions to meet the economy riders of the appropriations
acts passed by Congress, combine to limit the Commission's possibilities.
In the private industry field, however, the USES continues to function, and will do so indefinitely. The release
of supplies, the freeing of the market from controls (the
act that cost OPA employees their jobs), and the filling
of needs accumulated thi'ough the war years, W'hile the
public is well supplied with money, make private industry
Ihe principal hope of dropped Federal employees. Therefore the closer the link between the USES, with its many
job contacts and proven system of hiring, assumes unique
importance, which the Governors of the various States
should recognize. A declaration o n their individual parts
of ihe need for the coordinated job exchange would do
much to accomplish it.
President Truman is knowji to be interested in the
well'ai'e of those who served the Federal government capably when the Government needed their services desperately, and the job exchange would be a fine way to
put that sentiment into practice.

is how free and easy the S t a t e

On the question of jobs, t h e

who formerly were State employees, and who necessarily became
Federal employees when, during
the war, the U. S. Government
took over the recruitment program
for private industry and, to some
extent, the Federal Government.
Those Federal employees who were
hired on a war-service-indefinite
basis are not afforded any protection.

ing said t h a t operating officials
must participate directly in recruiting and rating applicant^ for
positions, prepare work assignment sheets for their emplovees,
apply classification standards, to
such work sheets and decidr the
grades in which jobs belong. Also,
he added, they must train employees to work more efficiently
and must be responsible for identifying and dismissing disloyal
employees.
By such decentralization of staff
functions, he said, responsibility
could be placed definitely, without
buck-passing; personnel aspei^t' of
administration would be turned
over to operating oflncials. but
they would have definite standards for operation and the best
available technical assistance

Time Enough For Cheering
When We Win
Our Fight For A Living Wage
The resolution unanimously passed by the City Coun'cil urging the Board of Estimate to
grant pay increases to city worlcers making $5,500 a year or less was a step in the right direction.
But it was onljj the first step!
T h a t brighter and better pay day is still a long way off!
There will be time enough for cheering when we win our fight for a wage t h a t will help us
keep our heads above the flood of high prices and the mounting crest of living costs.
Meanwhile, the next step is up to the Board of Estimate. We feel t h a t the Board will be
as realistic as the City Council. We feel, too, t h a t each individual member of the Board recognizes from his own experiences during past months and years t h a t the Civil Service Dollar
has become pitifully small when measurect in terms of present-day living costs.
It is estimated t h a t the proposed pay increases will benefit 110,000 city workers. A great
many people! Taken together with their families t h a t many people could make up the whole
population of a major metropolis. More important, t h a t many people should be able to make
themselves heard!
One of the more significant aspects of the pay raise resolution passed by t h e Council is the
fact t h a t the action was taken a f t e r the Finance Committee brought the economic plight of
city workers out into the open at a public hearing. T h a t ' s democracy in action!
It was also a fine example of cooperative effort.
The Uniformed Firemen's Association worked lor that resolution. But we were not alone.
Sfioulder to shoulder with us were the representatives
of other Civil Service groups and labor
organizations made up of city workers. That was team work! And team work muat
continue
until the fight for a living wage ends in final victorjj.
TIIEKF:
BI: TIME E N O U G H FOK CHEERING W H E N
WE
WIM
W H A T HAPPENS NEXT
Is Up to You
The open forum is an instrument of democracy. The City Council, the Board of Estimate,
the State Legislature, Congress, are all a p a r t of t h a t system. So, we do not think we are
being unreasonable when we ask for an open forum on the subject of pay increases for Civil
Service workers. In fact, we respectfully but emphatically urge the Mayor of the City of New
York to submit the matter of the City Council resolution to a public hearing of the Board of
Estimate.
The Central Trades and Labor Council, comprised of American Federation of Labor locals
in Greater New York and vicinity, and with which the U. F. A. Is affiliated, already has gone
on record to propose t h a t the Mayor call a special hearing of the Board to consider its recommendation for a general Civil Service pay increase.
It is the firm belief of this organization t h a t the resolution of the City Council can not
fail to win approval of the Board of Estimate If it receives the full support of- all interested
parties at a public hearing. It should be plain to every one of the 110,000 civil employees who
would benefit under the pay proposal t h a t the fight will not be won until the first paycheck with
the increase is actually issued. So do not relax, now. Add your voice to ours—ask for a public
hearing of the Board of Estimate. THEN ATTEND IN PERSON OR BY REPRESENTATION!
The U. F. A. publicly thanks the Democratic Majority of the City Council and the entire
membership of the Council for its recognition of the crying need for a pay increase to help
lighten the terrific burden on the city worker.
But the resolution will be just a gesture if the citjj-service-wide
appeal for economic security does not reach fruition through the passage of local legislation, signed and approved by
the Mayor. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT IS UP To YOU! You. the city fireman, the
sanitation
tcorkcr, the policeman, the clerk, the hospital worker, all of you and all of us, must keep our
eyes on City Hall and work, work, work imtil that badly-needed pan raise is ours.

IF FACTS ARE NEEDED

RESORTS
The City Council resolution stated t h a t figures were advanced during hearings on city
worker wages to show a marked disparity between present earnings of municipal employees and
the cost of living. T h a t ' s one way of putting it. Here is another way, taken from an official
survey of the economic situation confronting one class of city employee—the fireman.
"The most important single item in the fireman's budget," the survey states, "is food. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the purchasing power of the normal food dollar has
decreased from nearly $1.08 in June, 1939, to approximately
58 Cents in August. 1946. Further
substantial increases in living costs (resuting in decreased dollar value) have occurred since last
August, with the Presidential order decontrolling meat and nearly all other items.
"Authorities recognize the need and importance of inaintaining purchasing power for wage
and salary earners. Only bp maintaiining such adequate purchasing power can prosperous times
be contimied. This factor is immediately relevant in considering the instant matter,
especially
since the purchasing power of the New York City fireman (and other city employees) is far
from adequate today and far equal to their pre-war purchasing
power."
These are facts, not mere words. If more facts are needed, they can be found at the neighborhood grocery, or the meat market, or the clothing store or the restaurants. It's just a case
of simple arithmetic. So simple, indeed, that even small children can figure it out when their
father's paycheck is too small to give them enough to eat or to put enough clothes on their
bodies.

Pension Reforms Sought SPREAD OF STRIKES
DEPLORED BY LEAGUE
By Post Office Group
Recognizing t h a t the rLsing cost
of
VJ living may necessitate another
ampaign for salary increases for
est office employees, the major
legislative objective of the Joint
Conference of Affiliated Postal
Employees of Greater New York
and Vicinity, for the present is to
seek revisions in the Civil Service
Retirement Act.
n i e proposed revisions:
1. Change the formula, to be
identical with the Congressional
retirement system, of computing
an employee's annuity to 2Vz per
cent of his best annual salary,
multiplied by the years of seivice
not exceeding 30. with optional
retirement after 25 years of service.
2. Change the $30 base used by
the government to $40, which
multiplied by the same 30 years
of service would insure a minimum of $1,200 as the contribution of the government to the retirement allowance of an employee.
3. Compulsory retirement v. age
60, with a t least 30 years of service, provided t h a t a five-year grace
period e permitted to those a f fected by the enactment of this
amendment, none given grace to
be permitted to go beyond 70
years of age.
4. A widow's annuity of 60 per
cent of the amount received by
the annuitant, provided the m a r riage of the annuitant antedated
his retirement by 10 years, including an additional benefit of 10
per cent for each dependent.
5. Similar benefits for widows
of postal employees dying in active service, unless widow remarries.
7. The elimination of the ton-
i

tine deducting,
8. All Federal annuities be tax
exempt.
I t was further agreed t h a t these
revisions should be made without
any increase in pension deductions. The Joint Conference is
opposed t o any attempt to merge
the Civil Service Retirement System with Social Security System.
In line with these objectives,
New York Congressional candidates were polled. The results
wex-e reported as gratifying. Quite
a few candidates were interviewed.
They promise whole-hearted support, Among these were Representatives Rooney, L. W. Hall,
Buck, Marcantonio, A. C. Powell,
Jr., and Eugene J . Keogh. Representatives Rayfiel and Rabin informed the Joint Conference t h a t
they agree with the Conference's
proposals. Representative Klein
stated t h a t he a ^ e e d with the
Conference regarding the necessity for such retirement revisions,
and will do everything possible to
aid passage, if the proposal? are
introduced in the 80th Congress.
The other legislative objectives
of the Affiliated Postal Employees
are 26 days annual leave and 15
days sick leave, which would
bring them to equality in treatment with all other Federal employees; amendment of Public
Law No. 134 as to retroactive
longevity pay. Also sought are
time-and-one-half overtime for
substitutes, meritorius grades for
Mail Handlers, single line classification for the railway mail service, and time and one-half compensatory time for Saturday, Sunday and Holiday work; m a n d a tory seniority legislation, court of
appeals, and a government health
program for Federal employees.
