way that the Salary Board report

State employees' representatives in
the preparatory phases of the report, as well as the effect of having the report thrown at them at

Special to The LEADKR
ALBANY, Feb. 17 — J o h n ' T.
DeOraff last week directed a
virulent attack upon a d m i n i s t r a tion proposals to alter t h e provisions of the Feld-Hamilton law
a n d t o provide a "rubbery" 5-day
work week.
Mr, DeGraff, counsel for T h e
Civil Service Employees Association, pointed out t h a t m a n y prese n t protections are eliminated
f r o m t h e proposals, a n d t h a t t h e
power given t h e Budget Director
is so extensive as to be unconstitutional.
A summary of Mr. DeGraff's
criticisms follows:
Last Fall, the Budget Director
announced t h a t a five-day week
was to be put in effect for all
d e p a r t m e n t a l employees and t h a t
a t the next session of the Legisl a t u r e t h e administration would
recommend passage of a bill providing a basic work week of 40
hours for all S t a t e employees,
with overtime compensation for
working time in excess of 40
hours. T h a t bill has now been introduced. I t is by no means as
broad as the promise. It provides
in substance for a 40-hour basic
week for all State employees except those who shall be excluded
p u r s u a n t to rules made by the
Budget Dlreolor. It is one of the
most
amazing
delegations
of
power to a n administrative officer
t h a t I have ever seen. I t is so
broad t h a t the Budget Director
can give overtime to everybody or
to nobody. He can pay overtime
to one group for one m o n t h and
take it away from them t h e next
month. One might as well a p propriate 650 million dollars t o
be spent as the Budget Director
shall in his discretion choose.
This bill m^ist be amended to set
up definite a n d specific standards.
Such absolute surrender of legislative power to a n administrative
official is clearly unconstitutional.
More subtle, hut of the same
general character, are the proposed amendments to the FeldHamilton law which eliminate
basic safeguards and entrust all
salary policies to the discretion
of t h e Salary Board and t h e Budget Director. This bill must be
amended to correct the following
basic defects:
1. T h e provisions of the bill
which reduce present basic rates
must be amended. At present, t h e
minimum entering salary in State
service is $1,560. The bill reduces
this to $1,500. At present, t h e
entering wage for 10,000 hospital
a t t e n d a n t s is $1,690. T h e bill reduces this to $1,600. In the face
of the 18 per cent increase in cost
of living, this is no time to cut
salaries.
Bill Would Return
30-Day Military
Training Leave
2. The m i n i m u m salaries now
fixed by t h e Feld-Hamilton law
must be written into the new law.
Under t h e Feld-Hamilton law,
certain minimum salaries were
provided by t h e schedules for certain groups of positions. All these
minimums are tepealed.
They
must be restored by writing them
Into the law.
3. The new law must be revised
to Include Feld-Hamilton protection for positions In direct line of
promotion. T h e new plan Is so
flexible t h a t existing salary increases on promotion can, in the
discretion of t h e Board a n d t h e
Budget Director, be telescoped so
t h a t employees, upon promotion,
would receive relatively small
salary increases.
4. T h e principle of equal pay
for equal work must be preserved.
T h e provisions of the bill which
permit different rates of pay In
different areas of t h e State should
be repealed. It is wholly unsound
to pay different rates of pay to
employees holding the same title
and performing t h e same work.
The employees of the State regard the Feld-Hamilton law as
the Magna Carta of their rights
and liberties. They are outspoken
in their resentment of this a t tempt to nullify t h e basic safeguards contamed in the law.

Special lo The LKADER
Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 17—A bill of
general application to veterans
a n d others in t h e reserves, is t h e
Anderson-Ostertag measure for a
30-day leave of absence from
public employ for ordered military
d u t y by members of units other
t h a n the New York Guard, which
is already t h u s protected. T h e
S t a t e and its civil divisions would
be affected.
This bill extends the leave to
employees who, a f t e r April 1,
1942, became members of t h e n a tional guard, naval militia, or
reserve corps or force in t h e federal military, naval or m a r i n e
service. The bill gives this group
of public employees the same
rights to a leave of absence and
retirement protection during such
leaves as is now accorded to members of t h e Guard.
ALBANY, Feb. 17—Nurses employed by t h e State of New York
met in Albany to protest their
low scales of pay.
They pointed out t h a t by comparison with nurses employed by
NYC and by the Federal Government, their pay is out of line.
Here's how it lines u p :
NYC Nurses:
1st .year
$2,640
2nd year
2,760
3rd year
2,880
(Plus two meals a day while on
duty.)
New York State Nurses:
1st year
$2,040
2nd .vear
2,160
6th year
2,640
Thus, a f t e r six years, a S t a t e employed nurse reaches the f i n a n cial status which a New York
City nurse a t t a i n s in her first.
"The nurses also endorsed t h e
principal of equal pay for equal
work.
They asked t h a t a 40-hour, 5day work-week be adopted as
rapidly as workers can be recruited.
They seek compensation for
time worked beyond 40 hours, and
request t h a t the decision on this
m a t t e r be made mandatory, not
left to the discrimination of any
individual.
The nurses were addressed by
Dr. F r a n k L. Tolman, President
of The Civil Service Employees
Association.
Passage Called Essential
T h e provisions applicable to
this group of employees are the
same as those accorded to employees who were members of the
s a m e services prior to April 1,
1942.
Section 245 of the military law,
which accorded these rights to
members of the National Guard,
etc., was amended to stop t h e
p a y m e n t of differential pay to
public employees who became
members of these military organizations a f t e r April 1, 1942. This
a m e n d m e n t not only barred d i f ferential pay, but it also deprived
employees in this category of the
o t h e r rights accorded to t h e m
under Section 245.
" T h e passage of this bill is
essential to give members of these
military organizations t h e same
rights t o a leave of absence on
ordered military duty t h a t is now
accorded to members of the New
York G u a r d and to employees
who became members of t h e
s a m e organizations prior t o Ap»;;4
1, 1942," says T h e Civil Service
Employees Association, sponsor
of the bill.
"This bill continues a longestablished precedent and will
eliminate discrimination by p u t ting all members of these organizations on t h e same footing with
respect to ordered military duty
in time of peace."

MORE ABOUT THE SALARY STUDY
HE single valid conclusion t h a t can be drawn f r o m t h e d a t a in
the Salary Study of t h e Salary Standardization Board is t h a t
private industry h a s no definite wage p a t t e r n for white collar jobs
but t h a t t h e range paid for similar jobs is so great as to lead to t h e
inevitable conclusion t h a t each company h a s Its own wage plan or
p a t t e r n which differs widely f r o m t h a t of its competitors.
T h e range of pay outside S t a t e service is nearly always two or
three times as broad as in t h e S t a t e service and frequently broader.
In m a n y cases it is so broad t h a t t h e higher r a t e s are indicated only
by a + sign of $6,000 + .
T h e range of variation in salaries reported for Machinist in private industry is over $1,400; for Mason a n d Plasterer, $1,400 + ; for
Plumber a n d Gasfitter, $1,400 + ; for General Mechanic, $1,400
for Carpenter, $1,400 + ; for Roofer a n d Tinsmith, $1,200 + ; for
Maintenance Helper, $1,500 + ; for Maintenance Man f r o m $700
to $1,500
T h e r e is evidently little if any evidence of a u n i f o r m
pay rate.
Moreover in its comparison with State salaries, t h e Study does
not use t h e actual range in private industry. It uses only the middle
half ow t h e actual range. The median or average is the figure t h a t
is used chiefly for comparison. T h e going or ruling wage represented
by the various modes and high frequencies are largely neglected.
T
Larger Group
Not
Included
The study ruled out sales a n d production workers, a large a n d
highly paid p a r t of the wage picture in private industry. It directed
its field staff not to collect or to consider rates or scales of pay but
only actual wages paid, although t h e purpose of t h e study was to
collect d a t a comparable to t h e State's pay scales. I t did not use t h e
essential safeguard of every statistical sampling technique, which is
to be sure t h a t t h e sample is truly representative of t h e whole.
One is forced to conclude t h a t t h e Study is not a study of the
wages paid in private industry. I t is a study of picked samples of
white collar workers. I t is not in my opinion a n honest effort to fir/
prevailing rates in private industry for jobs fairly comparable with
the jobs in t h e S t a t e service. I t compares a n economically sick m a n
(the S t a t e Employee) with t h e sick wan in t h e industry (the white
collar worker). T h e S t a t e employees w a n t and deserve comparison
with normal workers in industry.
Revolving Fund
Employees Aided
By Assn. Bill
Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 17—The IrwinOstertag bill, extending to employees of the Revolving F u n d of
t h e Public Service Commission t h e
benefits of the Feld-Hamilton
law, is being strongly backed by
its sponsor. The Civil Service E m ployees A.ssociation.
The bill would affect all perm a n e n t employees but not experts
or other temporary employees
hired under special circumstances
and under special Civil Service
rules because t h e Feld-Hamilton
law, by its terms, is not applicable to temporary or seasonal
employees.
"The adoption of this bill Is
essential to remedy a long-standing discrimination in t h e Public
Service Department," says t h e
Association.
"Permanent
civil
service employees paid f r o m the
Revolving F u n d receive compensation on a per diem basis, while
other employees appointed from
t h e same Civil Service lists a n d
doing t h e same work are paid
from Budget .^unds on a per
a n n u m basis.
Want No More Discrimination
"There is no round reason why
this discrimination should be permitted to continue.
Revolving
F u n d employees paid on a per
diem basis are prejudiced in r e spect to sick leave, vacation a n d
salaries, a n d in m a n y other r e spects. They earn substantially
less t h a n Budget employees for
t h e same hours of work a n d have
been discriminated against in
m a n y other ways too nmnerous
to mention."
This bill Involves no cost w h a t ever to t h e State, because t h e
salaries of the Revolving F u n d
employees, as well as salaries of
Budget employees doing similar
work, are reimbursed to t h e S t a t e
by t h e utilities which these employees in.spect, explained J o h n
T. DeGraff, Counsel to the Association.
The bill is deemed necessary
not only to remedy a long-standing Injustice, but to be in keeping
with t h e policy of the S t a t e to
extend t h e Feld-Hamilton law
wherever practicable to provide a
uniform compensation plan for
all employees.

T h e f a i l u r e of Governor Dewey to r e c o m m e n d salary increases
in his budget message to t h e S t a t e Legislature, is so disappointing,
so unsound, so overwhelming in its effect, t h a t it h a s virtually dealt
t h e deciding blow a t t h e already weakened morale of t h e S t a t e
Hospital workers.
T h e S a l a r y S t a n d a r d i z a t i o n Board c a m e up with t h e careless

recognized as t h e prevailing r a t e ? W h o outside of a S t a t e hospital
h a s ever h e a r d of s t r a i g h t pay for overtime?
If t h e S t a t e hospital employees are as well paid as t h e Gove r n o r claims t h e y are, a n d if t h e findings of t h e S a l a r y Board are
based on fact, why is it t h a t t h e Institutions are actually begging tor
help, v h i l e like Federal Hospitals a n d private concerns h a v e no
positions to offer? W h y are t h e great m a j o r i t y of W a r d A t t e n d a n t s
obliged to work 72 h o u r s a week?

T h e incredible f a c t is t h a t t h e labor situation in these places h a s

why should people offer t h e i r services to t h e S t a t e a t $1,560, when
t h e y can get $2,160 for exactly t h e s a m e kind of work in any Federal
m e n t a l institution, with time a n d a half for overtime a n d double

T h e 40-hour week, with overtime for t h e additional eight hours,

Danger
Ahead
Since t h e F e l d - H a m i l t o n salary scales are based on t h e living
costs of 1937. a n d because t h e emergency bonus, w h i c h averages 22
per cent, a g a i n s t a commodity price rise of 52 per cent or more,
t h e wage of t h e average S t a t e Hospital worker is well below t h e
subsistence level. So, in order to m a k e ends meet, t h o u s a n d s of our
fellow-workers are, u n d e r w h a t m a y be t e r m e d a system of economic
compulsion obliged to r e t u r n to t h e 12-hour day. Those who c a n n o t
have overtime a r e forced to seek p a r t - t i m e e m p l o y m e n t on t h e outside
I n this way t h e S t a t e is r u n n i n g t h e ward services at a very
reduced cost. I t will continue to do so as long as t h e employees are
willing to work 72 h o u r s a week with only s t r a i g h t p a y f o r t h e
additional hours.
Let this situation continue. Let t h e S t a t e persist in its Injustice
to p a t i e n t s a n d employees alike a n d in its denial to t h e public of
t h e service it expects a n d deserves. Let t h e S t a t e persist, a n d t h e
whole M e n t a l Hygiene system, now in t h e stages of decay, m a y
well become one of t h e g r e a t scandals of o u r S t a t e as it sinks

A plan f o r t r a i n i n g t h e 30,000
employees of t h e B o a r d of T r a n s p o r t a t i o n in first aid a n d related
subjects is being considered by
t h e Board.
Two alernative m e t h o d s h a v e
figured in t h e discussion. Under
one, t h e B o a r d would u n d e r t a k e
t h e work itself. U n d e r t h e other
t h e work would be done in c o n j u n c t i o n with t h e Brooklyn C h a p ter of t h e American Red Cross.
If t h e Board does t h e work itself,
t h e t r a i n i n g would be given by
its s a f e t y educators, who will be
t r a i n e d themseves to be i n s t r u c tors. If t h e R e d Cross participates,
it would t r a i n its own instructors,
t h e shops would probably be used,
or, if a single location, t h e Red
Cross t r a i n i n g center in Brooklyn.
Dr. W a l t e r Ludlum, Jr., Medical
Director of t h e Board, is holding
conferences with his medical staff
on t h e subject.

C r o s s a n d t h e B o a r d joining h a n d s .
Besides first aid, t h e B o a r d expects to give o t h e r courses as p a r t
of a n i n t e g r a t e d plan for saving
life a n d p r o p e r t y a n d avoiding

ALBANY, Feb. 17—A bill with
considerable official backing Is
the Burney-PIllion measure to
extend the Feld-Hamilton provisions to employees of the Niagara Frontier Authority, This is
a bill of The Civil Service Employees Association.

ultimate objective of having all

proposal was approved by the Department of Public Works, which
exercises general supervision over
the activities of the Authority.
The proposal was also approved

Section 174, Rules and Regulations, 1937, insofar as it relates
to the assessments to be collected from m e m b e r s ,
was
amended to read as follows: Chief

pay for the department's 500 fire

The increase will be paid by the
Firemen themselves at the rate of
$1 a month from each man,
bringing the total monthly fee tor
bedmaking services to $5 per Fireman. Firefighters now contribute
$2 each semi-monthly payday to
matron wages, with officers passing
a somewhat higher rate. The Increase will. mean that Firemen
will pay a bonus of approximately
$120,000 a year to matrons, bringing the total amount paid annually to some $600,000.
