There's Still Opportunity to Get Low-Cost No-Exam Insurance ALBANY, Nov. 29—I t ’s a special d ispensation, boys an d girls! F or ju s t a few days yet— an d no longer—you m a y ta k e a d v a n ­ ta g e of low -cost life in siu u n ce w ith o u t a m edical exam ination. T he fin al day of th is offer was November 30—b u t to allow for m ail delays a n d processing, a ^ew m ore days h av e been added. So if you’ll do It now, th e Civil S e r­ vice Employees A ssociation says you ca n still qualify. H ere’s th e se tu p : T h e employee m u st be or be­ come a m em ber of th e Associa­ tion in order to be eligible fo r th is offer, m u st be u n d er 50 years of age, a n d n o t hereto fore r e ­ jected for th e in su ran c e on th e basis of a m edical exam ination. T he A ssociation used th e tr e ­ m endous p u rch asin g pow er of its th o u san d s of m em bers in order to arran g e th is low -cost Life Instu’ance protection. Em ployees eligi­ ble should consider th e special featu res of th is p la n a n d ta k e a d ­ v an tag e of it fo r th e pro tec tio n of th e ir dep en dents a n d loved ones. T he low cost, b ro ad coverage an d o th e r featu res a re n o t found u n ­ der insurance obtainab le th ro u g h o rd in ary channels. The premium rates under the G roup Life P la n sponsored by th e Association are very low. F or ex­ am ple. a n em ployee u n d e r age 40 pay only 30c in su ran c e p ro te c ­ tion. T he cost to employees in th e h ig h e r age b rackets is slightly higher. U nder th e group policy, each insured m em ber is accorded free in su ran c e am o u n tin g to 10 per c e n t of th e in div id ual’s insurance, w ith a m inim u m am o u n t of f250. T his free in su ran ce is g u ara n tee d u n til November 1, 1949 an d will doubtless co ntinu e a s long as ex­ perience u n d er th e p la n continues satisfactory. Com m encing Novem ber 1, 1948 in sured m em bers of th e group p la n will be covered in th e event of d e a th th ro u g h accidental m eans in a n ad d itio n al am o u n t equal to th e G roup Life In su ra n c e issued to him . No e x tra ch arg e to th e employee is m ade for th is p ro ­ tection.

T h e A s­ sociation’s h e a d q u a rte rs files co n ­ ta in m a n y com m endable s ta te ­ m en ts received from beneficiaries m ending th e pro m p t claim service. Since th e inception of th e p lan over two an d a h a lf million dol­ lars h a s been paid in claim s an d th e p lan h a s proven a valuable co ntribu tion to employee welfare. A nother special fe a tu re of th e p lan is its easy m eth od of p re ­ m ium p a y ire n t. O nce th e in su r­ ance coverage is m ade effective, it is continued by sm all sem i­ m o n th ly deductions from th e in ­ sured m em b er’s salary.

The question asked w h at should be done by a policem an who loun d weapons, including a r e ­ volver, in a car, one of th e oc­ cu p an ts of w hich h a d a license to ca rry “such a w eapon,” Of four selective answers, two were adm ittedly inapplicable; th e Com­ mission gave D as th e best a n ­ swer—let th e m go. T h e court holds th a t A was th e best answ er —hold th em all—because a p e r­ m it to carry “siich a w eapon” is not, as required by s ta tu te , enough to cover th e p artic u la r weapon. Tlie sta tu te says “th e ” weapon, n o t “such a w eapon.” H ence th e decision tu rn s on one word. T he principal grounds of th e appeal will be: 1, T h a t th e Com mission h as ex­ clusive au th o rity in determ in in g w h at is th e correct answ er to an exam ination question, provided th e answ er Is n ot ai'bitrary, c a p ­ ricious or unreasonable, w hich it holds its answ er w'as not. 2, T h a t th e p erm it to c a rry "such a w eapon,” m eaning th e r e ­ volver, was sufficient reason for ittot holding th e autom obile oc­ cup an ts, because th e ph rase, In o rd in ary conversation, Is Inclu­ sive a n d therefore covers a p a r ­ ticu la r weapon, an d th e issue was n o t w hether th e w eapon’s serial n u m ber was th e sam e as th a t on th e weapon, b u t w h eth e r any oc­ c u p a n t did have a revolver p eim lt, an d he did, h en ce If any p resu m ption is Invoked it would nave to be In favor of legality, Bot Illegality.

S Page Sixteen NEW CIVIL SERVICE LEADER Tuesday,' Novemlier .U YORK CITY NEWS Promotion Approved for 513 In Five Titles as Some Pay Rises $ 4 0 0 to $ 5 0 0 a Year i ly MORTON YARMON Approval h a s been given by b u d g e t D irector T hom as P. P a t­ te rso n of applications to prom ote 513 NYC employees in five titles, effective J a n u a r y 1 next. R esolutions au th orizing th e tra n s fe r of fu n d s fo r th is p u r­ pose will be on th e calen d ar of one of th e m eetings of th e B oard of E stim ate to be held in Decem ­ ber. However, th e re will be o ther recom m ended prom otions i niCluded also, fo r th e y h ave passed th e p relim in ary sc ru tin y of W il­ liam F. S hea, Mr, P a tte rso n ’s aide, »nd are now aw aiting action by th e boss Jtiimself. T h e B oard of E stim ate usually accepts th e prom otion recom m en­ datio ns of th e B udget D irector as m ade, th erefore th e 513 are a s ­ sured; also a n add itio nal 100 to 150 m ay be expected. T h e idea is to get th e 4t'Solutions adopted before C hristm as, even th o u g h th e effective d ate of th e prom otions is J a n u a ry 1. Some R aised $400 to $500 I n som e Instances th e prom o­ tions will c a rry increases of from $400 to $500, p rincipally for dis­ abled v eteran s who, alth o u g h n o t em ployed an y considerable n u m ­ ber of y ears in th e ir titles, gained ea rly pro m otion because of th e effect of v eteran preference on th e eligible lists. T h e am o unts for th e prom otees in general ta p e r dow n to $1, th e minlm/um being fo r those now receiving top pay of th e p rese n t grade, who will get m in im u m pay of th e n ex t h igher grade. T h e cost o f th e prom otions, th o se alre ad y approved an d those to be included later, in tim e fo r J a n u a r y 1 benefit, is about $120,000 a year. T h e larg e st n u m b e r of p ro ­ m otions will be in th e D ep a rtm en t of W elfare. T h e new Clerk, G rade 3 a n d 4 lists a re being used fo r th e first tim e. O f th e 338 in v a r­ ious d ep a rtm e n ts to be prom oted to th is title. 184 are in th e D e­ p a rtm e n t of W elfare; of th e 120 to be prom oted generally to Clerk, G ra d e 4. th e C om ptroller’s office h a s th e to p num ber, 61, a n d F in a n c e h as th e next highest, 30, while W elfare gets 6. “T h e 531 a re am ong those who will be on th e cale n d ar of th e B oard of E stim ate d uring Decen-Jber,” said Mr. S hea, “ an d th e re will be more, a lth o u g h I c a n ’t say now exactly how m a n y more, as th ese ad ditio nal ones h a v e n ’t re ­ ceived oflicial approval yet. B e­ sides, o th e r prom otions will follow.” No S em i-a n n u al E vent He denied t h a t th e city is re ­ vertin g to its form er policy of se m i-a n n u a l prom otions. Asked how it cam e about, th e n , th a t be­ tw een 600 an d 700 prom otions will probably be m ade a t once, he replied: •“I t w as ju s t a coincidence. New p ro m otion lists were recently p ro ­ m u lg ated a n d t h a t afforded a n op p o rtu n ity to prom ote employees. Also, th e re h a d been an accum u ­ la tio n of requests fro m d e p a rt­ m e n t h ea d s for perm ission to m ake prom otions.
