sound position classification w hich
is n o t accom panied by co n tin u ed
review a n d to p n o tc h a d m in istra ­
tion, It ca n be ren d ered useless.
As is always th e case in every o r­
ganization, th e re m u st be th e
will to do th e job.
B at there are positive values
in the adoption of a thoroughgoinir position classification. It
sets up a program that challenges
adm inistrators to give good ad­
m inistration. It provides them
w ith the m achinery for doing a
good job. It gives em ployees in­
centive. It gives them som ething
T h e U ngraded Service also in ­
cludes “assista n t fire m a rsh a l,”

c h itec t” a n d “senior engineer” are
n o t in th e E ngineering a n d A r­
ch itec tu ral Service, b u t in th e
A dm inistrative Service.
T he A dm inistrative Service is
thoroughly confusing, a n d so is
th e Miscellaneous Service.
It
m akes no sense to continue doing
th in g s th is way!
L et us pursue Just one m ore il­
lustratio n. In th e previously m e n ­
tioned U ngraded Service ap p ear
titles of A ssistant G ardener, G a r ­
dener and H ead G ardener. T h ere
is an o th er title called “F o re m an
of G ardeners.” If th e words m e an
anything, th e F o rem an of G a r d ­
eners would be th e n ex t h ig h e r
prom otion step in a G ard en e r se r­
vice. B ut, th e title of F o re m an of
G arden ers Is to be fo im d else­
w here in th e City’s black book u n ­
d er “Inspection Service.”
All
these titles could be m ore a p ­
propriately associated in a single
occupational grouping, so th a t
a n employee’s line of prom otion
would be clearly defined. Today,
the line of promotion la in m any
instances as obscure as words can
make it.
W hat Can the Position
Classification Do?
We have briefly viewed w h at
position classification is in theory,
an d we have ta k en a look a t w h at
th e City of New Y ork uses fo r a
classification system.
I f there is no sound system to
begin w ith, th e door is open for

A stud y to develop a position

w h o’s been a Commission ex am ­

Civil Servant's $ Keeps
Shrinking; Paul O'Dwyer
Sees It as the Big issue
Civil servants above all groups
In A merica sta n d to benefit from
a reduction in th e cost of living,
in th e opinion of Paul O ’Dwyer,
brotlier of New Y ork’s M ayor W il­
liam O ’Dwyer, who is ru n n in g for
Congress in the 21st Congression­
al D istrict on th e D em ocratic an d

Mr. O ’Dwyer, in a sta te m e n t to
T h e LEADER, asserted th a t C on­
gress should therefore be urged
to devote its efforts to finding th e
answ er to rising prices an d in ­
flation.
N um ber 1 Issue
“T he problem of the high cost
of living,” he said, “is th e n um ber
one issue of the cam paign. And
it alfects civil servan ts m ore th a n
anyone else. Tlieir salaries are
pegged by law, and w henever a
raise is talked about th e problem
of th e civil servants is th e last
to be considered.”
Mr. O ’Dwyer, a noted labor a t ­
torney, added th a t groups such
as m ine an d steel w orkers can
th re a te n to stop work w hen th e ir
co n tra cts ru n out. However, he
continued, th e civil serv an ts do
n o t have a sim ilar w eapon—th e
sam e th re a t to a stoppage of pro­
duction.
$2,500 Becomes $1,800
“Because of th is,” he said
“ Congress should atta c k th e p ro b ­
lem from the cost of living itself
A civil servant m ay get $2,500 a
year but find th a t because of d e ­
valuation and the rising cost of
living he is getting actually $1,800
a year. Wo certainly m u st pay
our governm ent employees a de­
c e n t living wage. W e d o n ’t w an t
6,000,000 civil servan ts In federal,
s ta te an d city jurisdictions, th e
govern m en t could never have
functioned.
‘T he a tte m p t now to cast sus­
picion on th e m ,” he asserted, “ is

to d rag aw ay a tte n tio n from th e
