Assn. Members Urged
To Keep Up Effort for
Pay Raise, Real 40 Mrs.
Special to Tlie LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 24—The adoption by the Senate and the Assembly of Governor Dewey's budget was described by The Civil
Service Employees Association as
separate from the budget bill to
convert the Peld-Hamilton schedules into the Salary Standarizatlon Board's setup, and the effort
to amend the substitution went on
strongly until the Association obtained concessions tSee p. 11,
leaving the fight for a pay increase stil Ito be won and the
40-hour week to be cleared up
completely.
The Statement by Association
The Association statement, issued before the victory on safeguards, follows:
"The fact that the Governor's
Budget passed in the Senate and
the Asssembly does not mean that
the campaign of the Association
is closed. The important Budget
Bill which converts Peld-Hamilton rates into new schedules is
still under consideration and the
Association is still active in attempting to obtain the incorporation of essential safeguards of
promotion rights and salary floors
in this legislation.
"As to saljiries, the Association
will introduce a Bill providing an
emergency cost of living bonus
for the year 1947-48 to fairly reflect the increases In cost of living. When this is introduced
every Association member should
do his part in attempting to win
the approval of his representatives in the Legislature."
Members were urged by the
Association to the following action:
"In the meantime It Is very important that the work which has
been so well begun should be
kept up. Continue to urge on
yoitf Assemblymen and Senators
the need for a real 40-hour, fiveday week with pay for necessary
overtime and for a 55-year retirement bill.
"If you have not done so, please
send in your nominations for employee committees to represent
the chief occupational groups
covered in the salary survey
study. It would be well if such
persons would begin now to collect wage data to cover rates paid
in their vicinity for jobs similar
to their own. Active committees
and salary information will be
valuable now and later in appeals
to the salary board.
"The Association can hope to
be successful in its campaign only
if every member does his part.
Your olScers and committees are
coimting on you wherever you
live and whatever your position."

LEGISLATIVE STUDY PROPOSED

Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 24—A proposed
joint resolution, Introduced in the
Legislature, proposes a survey of

ground that changes in social concepts since the System was established 26 years ago, require
study and action.. A comprehensive revision is the goal of Senaator William F. Condon and Assemblyman
Malcolm
Wiliams,
both of Yonkers.
The resolution states the purpose as removal of "the inconsistencies and inequalities now existing, pertaining to the contributions and salary deductions
made and the retirement rights,
allowances and benefits accruing
to oflRcers and members of the

ALBANY, Feb. 24—The Democrats in the Legislature, through
Senator Elmer Quinn, and Assemblyman Irwin Steingut, minority
leaders in their r e s p e c t i v e
branches, announced that their
party opposes repeal of the FeldHamilton law for the set-up proposed by a new salary standardization act, also the act which
would confer on the Budget Director power to determine what shall
be considered overtime for State
employees and the act to give him
"the right to repeal any appropriation by refusing to issue a

ALBANY, Feb. 24—Representatives of The Civil Service Employees Association and the Association of Ciiief Engineers and

Institutions met with J. Earl
Kelly, Director of Classification,
and his assistant, Granville Hills,
for four hours In an effort to obtain a sufficient nimiber of positions in their proper title in the

forces at the various State institutions, to compensate employees
properly in these services.

and W. C. MitcheU, Head Stationary Engineer, Wassaic State
School. Joseph D. Lochner, Executive Secretary, represented The
Civil Service Elmployees Association.
A uniform organissation for the
power house service at the State
institutions was discussed in detail. At many State institutions
positions of sufficient title are
lacking for proper compensation
of employees for the services performed, the employees contended.
Many of the employees have appealed to the State Classification
Board for adjustment of their
titles to bring them in line with
work performed.
"If a uniform set-up can be
established for all institutions it
it hoped that many of these justifiable appeals can be taken care
of," said Mr. Lochner.
Quinn and Steingut, issued before the Civil Service Employees
Association reached a compromise
with the Dewey administration
on the Peld-Hamilton features,
said:
"The salary standardization bill
is opposed because of its failure
in general to compare jobs in the
public service with like jobs in
private Industry. The inadequacy
of the samples taken for many
jobs, the failure to use reasonable
discretion in the statistical interpretation and failure to recognize
the rapidity of change in war
rates and in the post war period
as written In the salary standardization bill would deprive State
employees of equal pay for equal
work and result in the lowering
of service to the State as well as
general lowering of morale.
"The remaining two bills are
being opposed because they would
permit the Director of tl\e Budget
to arbitrarily rule on working
hours, vacations and overtime
compensation of State workers
without regard to fair practices or
State pay, and because all powers
of contract would be concentrated
in the hands of the Director of
the Budget."
Assemblyman Wilson V. Van
Duzer (R., Orange County) came
out strongly against repeal of the
F'eld-Hamilton law. He said in an
appeal mailed him to voters, on
official Assembly stationery:
'Tor a quarter of a century, the
Civil Service employees and their
friends In the Legislature fought
for a career law which would interest high type people in entering the service of their State.
Such a plan finally became law
through the efforts of Feld and
Hamilton and although not perfect, the Legislature had the
power to amend, revise and change
it upon the request of the people
who elect them.
"The present
administration
now proposes to abolish the FeldHamilton Act and substitute the
recommendation of the Salary
Standardization Board which will
give the Budget Director through
the Standardization Board, complete control over every matter
pertaining to the welfare of the
employees of the State.
"The acceptance of such a plan
constitutes what seems to me to
be an act of abdication on the
part of the Legislature. This is
only one of many acts which are
changing representative government in New York State into a
government of men instead of a
government of laws.

Tips Given Members
Of State Assn. Who
Hold Health Policies
Himdreds of State workers,
disabled by accident or sickness,
receive monthly cash benefits
under the group plan of accident
and sickness insurance made
available to members of The
Civil Service Employees Association. Very few difficulties arise
relative to settlement of claims.
The few that do arise could be
averted if policyholders would
observe the following rules:
1. When you become disabled,
notify immediately the nearest
claim adjusting office of the Commercial Casualty Insurance Company, or TerBush & Powell, Inc.,
423 State Street, Schenectady,
N. Y. Don't wait until you have
recovered—sent the notice when
you take sick, or have an accident.
2. While disabled, see your
physician at least once in every
seven days unless you have permission from the insiu-ance company to do contrary.
3. While you are off the State
payroll for any reasons whatsoever make certain that the insurance premiums that are ordinarily deducted from your salary
are sent in cash to TerBush &
Powell. Inc.
4. Check your insurance policy
today—look over the answers
relative to your medical history
that you gave when you applied
for the insurance. If these answers are not accurate, or are not
complete, get in touch with TerBush & Powell and advise them
of
the correct
or
complete
answers. This may have a bearing on whether claims under your
policy can be paid so it is worthwhile investigating.

The Conference Method At Work
ECENTLY a high s t a t e official stated at the close of a conference t h a t he liked the Conference method but t h a t It h a d its
dangers. J u s t what these dangers are, h e did not say but a few
days later another high State official stated in the course of a conference, t h a t the conferees h a d arrived at the danger spot. The
Issues h a d been presented and discussed at length and the differences
sharply defined and n o agreement seemed in sight. The conferees
were back just where they started from. I t was t h e n suggested t h a t
t h e whole matter be reviewed to see just where agreement was near
a n d just where it was farthest from achievement; t h a t t h e points
of agreement and disagreement be clearly defined with all suggested
solutions of each difficulty, and t h a t the advice of a higher authority
or neutral advisor on each propostion be obtained. As a result,
complete agreement was reached.
There are dangers in the Conference method. First there is the
chance t h a t the Conference is in f a c t no conference at all but
merely an occasion for telling one party "where it gets off."
Then there is the danger t h a t one or both sides refuses to make
the small concessions t h a t are necessary to final agreement.
Then there are the trivial but very real personality difficulties
where agreement is not reached because someone doesn't like the
looks or the necktie or the haircut of the other fellow, or where some
persons follow an ancient grudge or deep-seated prejudice.
One of the deepest reasons for failure is lack of confidence in
t h e integrity of the other party. It is feared t h a t confidential information will be used improperly, t h a t agreements will not be
observed, that what you say privately will be used publicly against
you.
Then there is the fear t h a t one party or the other will not stick
If the going gets rough—that they will bolt the conference, and
cast the blame on the imfairness of the other party. This sometimes leads to the fear t h a t the conference method is inherently
dangerous and that final decisions must be imposed by the powers
t h a t be and accepted by t h e employees.
Strangely enough, conferences either are refused or fail because
t h e case of one party is so weak or badly presented t h a t it will not
stand up in the give and take of vigorous analysis. The very weakness of the case leads to blind insistence on the supposed merits, and
t h e lack of clearness of details make adjustments almost impossible.
To be successful, the conferees must be honest, fair-minded,
able to see both sides, ready to give as well as to take, able to judge
f a c t s and to discover errors, true advocates of those they represent,
but ready to see the point of view and the facts of the other party.
Like politics, conference is the high art of compromise—compromise in which you give away no essential element of justice.

clause" of the Salary Board's report.
The Administration at this session of the Legislature proposed a
sweeping amendment to the FeldHamilton Career Law. The Association immediately opposed the
measure, contending t h a t it virtually destroyed the Feld-Hamilton Law by removing certain apparent safeguards.
Dr. F r a n k L. Tolman, President
of the employees' group, characterized the proposal as "totally u n acceptable to employees in the
State service in the form in which
it was presented." After a series
of conferences with t h e Association, extending over the last three
weeks, the Administration has
agreed to amend its bill.
T h e Association h a s assisted in
raising the minimum entering
basic salary in State service from
$1,200 to $1,600. The amendment
will effect the change.

Salary Floors
The employee group also proposed an amendment which would
set definite salary "floors" below
which the salary for certain positions could not be lowered, and
an amendment which would guarantee substantial salary increase
upon promotion to higher positions. T h e Administration asserted
t h a t to include such restrictions
would result in a rigid and unworkable salary plan.
After long deliberation, amendments acceptable to both sides
were agreed upon. T h e amended
bill will provide for a salary floor
of $2,280 for positions involving
professional, administrative
or
technical training.
Plan of Reallocation
It will also permit the Salary
Standardization Board to reallocate salaries in the following
manner:
All positions In a promotional
series shall be allocated to successive grades, the salaiy of which
shall properly reflect t h e varying
degree of responsibility, training
and duties to be performed. All
positions in the competitive class
in direct line of promotion, as determined by the Civil Service Commission, shall be allocated or reallocated In the following manner,
according to the Association:
"(1) The minimum salary of
the higher position shall be equal
to or greater t h a n the maximum
salary of the next lower position
with respect to all positions which
on J a n u a r y 1, 1947, were allocated
to a grade in which the minimum
salary was equal to or greater
t h a n the maximum of the next
lower position.
"(2) I n all other cases, the difference between the minimum salary of the next lower position
shall be not less t h a n the differences between such positions on
J a n u a r y 1, 1947.
TTnequal Pay Safeguard
"T?ue amendment f u r t h e r provides t h a t the Salary Standardization Board, without changing t h e
allocation of any other position
In a promotional series, may allocate or reallocate a given position
to a higher salary grade. It also
fixes the floor on salary reductions
by providing t h a t no reduction
may be made which would lower
the salary t h a t prevailed on
April 1, 1947, f a r t h e r t h a n one
grade downward In the new salary
schedule.
"The Association also opposes
the provision permitting unequal
pay for equal work in various
areas of the State. The Administration assured the Association
t h a t the provision was designed
only for emergency use and would
be employed very sparingly. The
conferees agreed to subject the
proposal to a one-year trial.
"The Association conferees feel
t h a t the proposed law, as amended. should have a trial. Dr. Tolm a n stated:
"This is confessedly a compromise. It Is f a r from perfect, but
it can be amended or repealed
next year If, in the light of actual
experience with its application,
such action should be warranted."
How to provide
a debt-free
home for
your family
Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, Feb. 24—The State
Department of Conservation Is
supporting the bill of The Civil
Service Employees Association to
bring to the Forest Rangers the
benefits of the higher pay and
other advantages of the FeldHamilton law, on the same basis
as now enjoyed by Game Protectors.
J o h n T. DeGraff, Counsel to
the Association, wrote Budget Director Jolm E. Burton t h a t the
bill deserves to be enacted now,
as full time for study has been
afforded since last year.
For 25 years, up until 1942,
Forest Rangers and Game Protectors have been equal in salaries, although during practically
all t h a t time the Game Protectors
have been in the competitive class
and the Rangers in the non-competitive class.
I n 1942 the Conservation law
provision fixing Game Protectors'
salaries was repealed, whereupon
the Game Protectors were classified under Feld-Hamilton at a
salary range from $1,500-$2,000.
The Forest Rangers remained a t
the old salary rate which began
at $1,200.
"In view of the fact t h a t R a n gers and Game Protectors have
always been considered to have
equal responsibilities. It seems
unjust t h a t the Game Protectors
should have a higher salary range
and the advantages of the FeldHamilton increases, while the
Rangers receive no consideration," said Mr. DeGraif.
The bill repeals the present salary applicable to Forest Rangers,
thereby
automatically
placing
them under coverage of the FeldHamilton law where the salaries
paid are lixed upon an equitable
basis in accordance with estabhshed Feld-Hamilton procedures.
No appropriation Is necessary In
the bill, because Forest Rangers
are paid from a lump sum appropriation .which Is sufficient to
take care of any increase in salaries t h a t may be made during
the current year.
Walter M. Stokes, of Cooperstown, introduced the bill in the
Senate (S.I. 259), .
N e w Mortgage-Cancellation Insurance, now offered
by 'The Dime' to home owners and home buyers, will provide free and
clear homes for many families instead of unpaid mortgage debts.
Through a new, low-cost life insurance plan, coupled with an
easy pay-like-rent Dime mortgage loan, you can now provide a debtfree home for your loved ones. This insurance automatically cancels
the entire remaining mortgage debt on your home in the event of
your death.
The cost is low—Only $2.85 monthly at age 35, on
a $5,000 mortgage, payable monthly over 20 years.
Inquire about this extra service when you borrow money to buy or
build a home, or if you have an old-fashioned fixed mortgage that
can be refinanced.
Come in and discuss your mortgage with us,
or mail the coupon below for our free booklet.

FAILS
The NYC Civil Service Commisison h a s denied a request made
by the Transport Workers Union
t h a t the height requn-ement (5
feet 6 inches) for Surface Line
Operator, be waived. T h e union
sought to have this waiver included so t h a t provisionals now
holding such jobs would be able
t o compete- I t is reported there
• r e 62 of them.
The Commission holds t h a t to
m a k e t h e change would require
readvertiaimg the
exainination,
opening another filing period,
amd postponing the written test,
set for March &, until a t least
six montlas later, because a tent a t i v e list of examination datffi
for the year has laeen established
and affords no earlier opening.
The undon argued t h a t there

Threat of Picketing
It stated t h a t t h e provisional
Surface Line Operators were given
their present jobs during the war
period, when height requirements
were not followed, so persons
could be obtained to fill t h e jobs.
The Commission advised t h a t the
provisionals could apply for Railroad Clerk. Applications for Railway Clerk will close on Friday.
The Surface Line Operator filing
period closed recently.
T h e Commission, for which. Commissioner Joseph A. McNamara
was the spokesman, realized t h e
desirability of retaining in the
city service provisionals who could
pass a competitive examination
for p e r m a n e n t appointment, because they already have t h e experience a n d proved themselves

T h e union also stated t h a t the

"3'. Previous examinations rigidly tested t h e qualifications of
the candidates in all phases of
police services and administration. As a result, t h e D e p a r t m e n t
today is the most progressive and
efficient in the entire world.
"4. Departtire from this type of
examination and giving solely 100
multiple choice questions will
have the following detrimental
results:
(a) Penalize the student who
has conscientiously prepared.
(b) Permit the element of
chance and luck to be a determining factor.
(c) Lower the caliber and efficiency of superiors.
(d) Seriously impair the morale a n d efficiency of Department.
"5\. Therefore, we, t h e undersigned, respectfully petition the
Civil Service Commission to:
(a) Conduct a n examination
which will intensely probe t h e
qualifications of all candidates
by testing their ability as to
knowledge, initiative a n d administration.
(b) Restore t h e average passing m a r k to its previous s t a n d a r d
of 80 per cent (seniority and written)."

State Pay Raise
Is the Next Move
COMPROMISE effected by State employees with the
Dewey administration provides salary-floors f o r cerA
tain classes of work, raises the $1,200 minimum entrance
pay proposed by t h e Salary Standardization Board to
$1.600, and introduces allocation and reallocation safegv^irds.
The officers of The Association of Civil Service Employees, who were parties to t h e a g r e e m e n t and. indeed
attained it, got less t h a n they asked, but t h e f a c t
t h a t they did m a k e so much h e a d w a y is a compliment
to t h e m and the membership t h a t backed t h e m up. Preservation of protective f e a t u r e s of t h e Feld-Hamilton law
w a s a p a r a m o u n t necessity. The power of organized employee action m a d e itself felt, for the Salary Board was
confident t h a t its plan would go t h r o u g h unchanged. Now
it knows better.
There are other objectives f o r which a h a r d effort
must be made f r o m now on out, to convince t h e administration and the Legislature t h a t a general pay raise must
be granted and that a real 40-hour week, on a firm basis,
should be enacted. The Association's pay increase bill is
about to be introduced. Not only Association members,
but all interested in f a i r wages f o r State workers should
get behind it. Considerable progress h a s been made
toward t h e 40-hour week safeguards, with some concessions already assured.
The short time in which the Association h a d to work,
through no f a u l t of its own, was one of t h e handicaps.
Now, as a d j o u r n m e n t of the Legislature nears, t h e handicap is still g r e a t e r ; but t h e possibility of victory is there,
and if every one rallies to t h e cause t h e r e is a prospect of
getting concessions on t h e p a r a m o u n t remaining issue,
more pay.

Concerning t h e r e c e n t e x a m i n a t i o n for Chief of D e p a r t m e n t

t h e c a n d i d a t e s t h o u g h t it was
wide open f o r a n y s t u d e n t of fire

decision in t h e h a n d s of t h e examiner.
I t was a f a i r e x a m i n a t i o n a n d

Appreciation was expressed by
all for t h e courtesies a n d assistance given by Director Samuel
H. Galston, a n d t h e Proctors,
couldn't h a v e been m o r e h e l p f u l .
A vote of t h a n k s is due to t h e
Chief of Staff a n d O p e r a t i o n s
for excusing us t h e n i g h t before

I believe examinatioxis f o r coming p r o m o t i o n a l tests will be along

Why S t a t e Employee Resigned
Editor, T h e L E A D E R :
I t is of m u c h interest to m e to
follow t h e report of t h e S t a t e Salary Standardization Board and
t h e t u r m o i l it h a s created, as I
was f o r m e r l y a S t a t e employee.
I a m a n R.N., g r a d u a t e d f r o m
t h e Craig Colony School of N u r s ing in 1938. I worked a t Pilgrim
S t a t e Hospital f o r 5 years as W a r d
Charge. I n 1943, because of t h e
low salai-y, our work, a n d too few
employees f o r t h e work load, I
resigned a n d in 30 days I was
e a r n i n g n e a r l y twice as m u c h as
t h e wages I h a d been receiving.
A f t e r t h e war, I moved m y f a m ily u p s t a t e , w h e r e I p u r c h a s e d a
house a n d went to work f o r a
dry-cleaning company, where I
average over $65 a week.
T h e S t a t e t r a i n e d m e to be a
Psychiatric Nurse, I like t h i s work
a n d by r i g h t s I should be working
a t m y profession, b u t one h a s t o
f a c e t h e f a c t s . I h a v e a wife a n d
t h r e e c h i l d r e n to s u p p o r t . I could
n o t go back to work f o r t h e S t a t e
a t $40 a week w h e n I c a n e a r n
$65 for a non-skilled job.
T h e S t a t e pays t h e consequences
of low"salaries. T h a t m e a n s t h e
public suffers.
T h e r e are m a n y places in R o c h ester where one c a n e a r n $50 or
m o r e per week as a laborer, c a r penter, electrician, plumber a n d
other t r a d e s m e n , as t h e y receive
$1.50 a n h o u r a n d more. W h y
doesn't a professional person in
S t a t e work r a t e t h e s a m e pay or
better? No wonder I a n d others
in m y position r e f u s e to go back
to S t a t e sei'vice when we r e a d t h e
S t a t e salary scales in T h e LEADER, t h e n pick up t h e daily p a p e r
and read where printers and engravers h a d their wages raised to
$74 a n d $79 a week for 37»/a hours
work.

Remember that any State employee is eligible for a n a w a r d if
his suggestions or a c c o m p l i s h m e n t s are
deemed sufficiently
worthy a f t e r t h o r o u g h i n v e s t i g a tion by t h e Merit Award B o a r d .
All you h a v e to do is get your
idea down in writing a n d s u o m i t
it to t h e office of t h e B o a r d oi
t h e 26th floor of t h e G o v e r n o r
Alfred E. S m i t h S t a t e Office B u i l d ing, Albany, N. Y.
Incidentally don't let a n y m o d est opinion of your literary skill
keep you f r o m sending in your
ideas. You don't have to be a
Ph.D. in Public A d m i n i s t r a t i o n or
a Nobel Prize w i n n e r in l i t e r a t u r e
in order to qualify for a m e r i t
award. T h e Merit Award B o a r d
is not r u n n i n g a c o n t e s t f o r t h e
most a t t r a c t i v e l y presented suggestion. I t is interested in your
idea, n o t in t h e color, t e x t u r e or
a r o m a of t h e p a p e r upon w h i c h
it is written, p r i n t e d or typed.
Idea Should Be Definite
T h i s does not m e a n , however,
t h a t you should not t a k e p a i n s t o
m a k e your writing legible a n d
your t h o u g h t s coherent.
Your
suggestion should be expressed i n
your own words a n d should be in
sufficient detail so t h a t it r e p r e s e n t s a complete idea.
T h e B o a r d recognizes t h a t a
m e c h a n i c , f o r example, with a n
excellent idea m a y not find it easy
to set his idea down on p a p e r . If
a n y classification of a suggestion
is needed, t h e B o a r d ' s staff will
write f o r additional i n f o r m a t i o n .
However, t h e r e m u s t be s o m e t h i n g

a definite or specific m e a n s of
i m p r o v e m e n t is useless, because it
is too vague to p u t into effect.
B u t don't neglect to send in a n
idea j u s t because you lack confidence in its u l t i m a t e value or a c ceptability. Let t h e Merit Award
B o a r d decide t h a t . So d o n ' t hold

D o n ' t forget t h a t all suggestions

substituted f o r t h e a u t h o r ' s n a m e
before t h e suggestions is processed.
Standards of Merit
T h e Merit Award B o a r d h a s
p r e p a r e d a s h o r t list of s t a n d a r d s
as criteria in j u d g i n g suggestions.
T h e y m a k e a useful check list t o
apply to your suggestion. B u t r e m e m b e r t h a t n o t all t h e eight
questions apply to your .suggestion,
so d o n ' t hold it back merely b e cause it doesn't answer each q u e s tion in t h e affirmative.
The standards are:
1. Is t h e suggestion original?
2. Is t h e suggestion feasible?
3. Will t h e suggestion improve
4. Will t h e suggestion increase
safety?
5. Will t h e suggestion increase
efficiency?
C. Will t h e suggestion f u r t h e r
the use of e q u i p m e n t ?
7. Will t h e suggestion help to
conserve n a t u r a l a n d physical r e sources?
8. Will t h e suggestion improve
h u m a n relationships between e m ployees, officials, a n d citizens of
the State?
Remember the Jeep
No discussion of t h e types of
suggestions t h a t " m e r i t a w a r d s "
would be complete without
a
recital of t h e Army classic. I t

solution t h a t saved t h o u s a n d s of

T h e simple expedient h e suggested

Introduced a bill which would a u thorize a hearing for a Civil SerrIce employee who
brought up o n
charges of Incompeteocy or misconduct. before su(di employee is
remoYcd. T h e present law requires only t h a t written charges
be furnished s u c h employee, with
a n oKMjrtunity to answer.
"The proposed diange," S e n a t w
H a l p e m estiriained, "does n o t curtail the existing right to appeal
such removal to t h e Civil Service
Commission or t o t h e courts after
the punishment h a s liera: imposed.
The bill extends these rights to
all New York State civil service
employees and to employees of
cities or civil subdivisions thereof,
except those In the exempt class.
"This bill gives the employee an
opportunity to defend himself."
