The Social Investigator exam­
ination notice was approved by
Budget Director Thomas J. Pat­
terson and the N Y C Civil Service
Commission scheduled it for in­
clusion in the January series.
The application period for the
January tests will be from Tues­
day, January 11, to Wednesday,
January 26.
The total pay on appointment
is $2,710 a ytar. No college degree
is required but senior high school
graduation or equivalency diplo­
ma is.
Job Opportunities Rise
Job opportunities for veterans
increased greatly by an enlarge­
ment of the period during which
experience may be claimed, to the
last 10 years. Instead of 6. That
makes pre-war experience count;
otherwise veterans in general
could not meet the experience re­
quirements.
There are lour mandatory an­
nual increments of $120 per annimi; however, the salary reached
by mandatory increments may not
exceed $2,280 per annum.
Applications must be filed in
person on forms furnished by the
Commission.
Such application
forms may be obtained from
the Application Section, 96 Duane
Street, Manhattan, N. Y. 7, from
9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays and
from 9 a.m. to 12 noon on Satur­
days, and must be filed there dur­
ing these hours. Applications must
be notarized and must be accom­
panied by the prescribed fee of $1
cash, dheck or money order. Applicatiorui which are properly
executed and accompanied by the
prescribed fee will be accepted
from anyone who presents him­
self as an agent of the applicant.
Many Vacancies Expected
Pees are not refunded to per­
sons who are absent from exam­
inations; refunds are made onljr
to those candidates not permitted
to take examinations by the Com­
mission because they lack the
necessary requirements.
Promotion Opportunities: E m ­
ployees in the title of Social In­
vestigator, Grade 1, are eligible
for promotion to Assistant Super­

At the same time, he added, para­
doxically, that he himself does not
like the Condon bill.
As reported In last week’s
LEADER, much of the evidence
adds up to a possible last-minute
“blitz” with another bill to take
the place of the Legion’s Condon
measure. The Mitchell bill forces
are preparing for such a conting­
ency, and argue that: (1) It would
Indicate the unacceptability of
the Condon bill to the public; (2)
another measure would have little
chance In the Legislature, which
doesn’t want to be led around by
the nose on this Issue.
Want to Talk It Over
Mitchell bill proponents — and
this Includes the major civil ser­
vice organizations— are eager to
sit down with Legion representa­
tives on this Issue, and solve It
amirably. They point out that ob­
jections to the Mitchell bill either
are unrealistic or could be met by
statute. Thus, for example, it is
said that the Mitchell bill doesn’t
provide for disabled veteran re­
tention in case of layoff. The an­
swer is that retention is written
into section 21 of the Civil Ser­
vice Law. It is pointed out that
the Mitchell bill doesn’t provide
preference for the widows of vet­
erans who died in combat.
Neither does the Condon bill; and
if additional legislation seems de­
sirable to accomplish this. It can
be talked over without in the
meantime hampering the Mitchell
bill.
It Is pointed out, too, that if
a matter of “face” is involved, tiie
Legion would not lose face by
backing the Mitchell measure,
which is a vet preference pro­
posal that has the best opportun­
ity of getting public support at
the polls.

Thomas E. Dewey, two days be­
fore the Christmas holiday,
granted two days oft to all State
workers, the Friday preceding
Chrlstma.<3 and the Friday pre­
ceding New Years.
The Governor also advised the
Civil Service Commission to noti­
fy all institutions and the State
Police that employees unable to
have those days off will receive
equivalent time off when they can
be spared. Tlie second directive
of the Governor came after the
Civil Service Employees Associa­
tion had called to his attention
that institutional and State Police
employees would not be as free
as other workers to get the two
Fridays off. The Governor Im­
mediately agreed to make the “in

President. I%e Civil Service Employees Association, Inc., and Member
of Employees' Merit Award Board.
THE BEST POSSIBLE PUBLIC SERVICE
H A P P Y N e w Year!
The 40,000 and more members of the Civil Service
Employees Association rightly look to their Association to
do everything possible to ma k e the year 1949 a happy one.
The members can, I think, count on their officers to labor
day and night for their c o m m o n welfare. The officers cannot
promise universal success, but they can promise unceasing
effort.
In m y philosophy, I hold the welfare of public employees
to be important, because the welfare of all the people, and
the proper and efficient functioning of our democracy de­
pends largely on the kind of jobs and services turned out
by all the servants of the people.
What Government Is in Essence
It cannot too often be “repeated that good government
is important. Governor De w e y once said that the govern­
ment is, in essence, what all the thousands of public e m ­
ployees are and do.
W e have the testimony of Governor D e w e y as to what
the public employees of N e w York State are and h o w well
they do their jobs, and his statements should bear weight.
“N e w York,” wrote the Governor, “is fortunate in hav­
ing an incomparable civil service group. In w ar and in
peace, they have continuously showed a steadfast devotion
to their duties and responsibilities as public servants.”
The Hard Way
There is a bit of old-fashioned philosophy that holds
that the universal road to success is by earning it through
hard work and self-improvement. This philosophy is im­
bedded in the civil service more firmly than anywhere else,
and is one reason for the vitality of the merit principle.
As a civil service association, the same belief in fair c o m ­
petition and promotion on the basis of performance — on
merit and fitness permeating the entire public service — is
a sound foundation for all their policies and objectives.
W e are, I think, right in urging the best possible public
service to all the people of the State. W e are, I think, right
in believing and proclaiming that that kind of service is
achieved only w h e n the best qualified are selected to serve in
government positions.
They Measure Up
W e are, I think, right in believing that N e w York State
public employees measure up very well indeed, w h e n com ­
pared with the employees of any private business in the
State, or in the United States. W e are, I think, right in
urging the constant improvement of the body of the State
and local public employees through better observance of
civil service, and the provision of better educational oppor­
tunities.
Danger of Over^rganization
W e are, I think, right in feeling that the great danger
of all big organizations is over-organization, and neglect of
the persons w h o m ake the organization work. W e are right,
I a m sure, in the belief that the worker is the really import­
ant element in all h u m a n undertakings; and finally, w e are,
I'am convinced, right in claiming that the laborer in gov­
ernment as elsewhere, is worthy of his fair hire.
The year 1949 is reminiscent of the wonder years of
1849, the last great epic of the pioneer in America, Yo u
will be the architect of your year 1949. Y o u can do muc h
to m a k e it a happy one by being a pioneer in your job, and
by finding the gold in your m a n y opportunities for service.
Your Association can function best if all of its members
live up to their high calling of ministering to all the people.
M a y your year 1949 be full of real satisfaction.

ALBANY. Dec. 27— Dr. Frank
L. Tolman, president of the Civil
Service Employees Association, Is
continuing his offensive to do
something about the “malorganJzation” of the State Division of
Placement and Unemployment In­
surance, which has resulted in a
heavy spate of firings. The DPUI
claims lack of Federal funds com­
pelled it to take tlie drastic dis­
missal action.
Dr. Tolma.n enlisted the aid of
private Industry last week, on
the ground that the dismissals
are detrimental to the Interests of
workers and management through­
out the State. He wrote, among
others, to Martin F. Hilfinger,
president of the Associated In­
dustries of New York State, Inc.,
of Buffalo, suggesting that this
organization has a legitimate in­
terest in the situation.
Mr. Hilfinger has told Dr. Tolmaa the interest la there. “I
in D P U l
can assui-e you we have taken an
active part,” he wrote, “in trying
to assui-e from the Federal gov­
ernment a proper amount of mon­
ey.” Mr. Hilfinger agrees with
Dr. Tolman that “ it is an unfair
situation, and I hope something
can be done in Congress to al­
leviate the condition.”
More than 300 employees have
lost their positions as a result of
the retrenchment. Dr. Tolnian’s
attitude was expressed in these
words:
“Here is one of the most help­
ful laws ever placed upon the
statute books, yet it rests upon
uncertain appropriations from
Congress with tragic results to
business and to workers, . . If ,he
Federal Government is failliv in
providing the funds
y to
carry on the service, I U ‘lio<c Ine
State should supply llio-n
this
time and until the Federal luiids
are available.”

Substitute Employees— The bas­
ic rate of pay for substitutes is
$1.29 an hour. After the perform­
ance of one year of satisfactory
substitute service, including time
served as a special-delivery mes­
senger, the basic rate of pay Is
increased 5 cents an hour each
succeeding year until a maximum
pay of $1.79 an hour is reached.
This increase is made at the be­
ginning of the quarter following
the completion of a year of satis­
factory service in the next lower
grade.
Regular Employees— Basic rates
for regular employees are based
on a 40-hour week (five 8-hour
days). Clerks in offices of the first
and second classes and carriers
in the city-d»livery service are
divided into eleven grades, the
basic salaries of which are $2,550,
$2,650, $2,750, $2,850, $2,950, $3,050, $3,150, $3,250, $3,350 $3,450
and $3,550 a year, respectively,
and will be promote successively
after 1 year’s satisfactory service
in each grade, to the next higher
grade until the eleventh grade is
reached. When a substitute em­
ployee is appointed to a regular
position, he is assigned to a sal­
ary grade corresponding to his
salary as a substitute. Promotions
of both clerks and carriers will be
beginning of the quarter follow­
ing the expiration of a year’s
satisfactory service in the next
lower grade. In offices of the first
class provision is made for pro­
motions to 3 grades in addition
to those shown above, up to a
maximum basic pay rate of $3,850 a year, upon completion of
the required amount of meritor­
ious service. Clerks and carriers
of grade 9 and above are eligible
for promotion to other postal posi­
tions in their respective offices,
and if for any reason such clerks
and carriers in grade 9 and above
are not available those clerks and
carriers in the lower grades in
such offices shall be eligible for
such positions. The salary named
is in each case subject to a re­
tirement deduction of 6 per cent
of the basic salary.
Night Work — Employees who
are required to perform night
work are paid extra for such work
at the rate of 10 per cent of their
hourly basic pay per hour. For
this purpose, night work is de­
fined as any work done between
the hours of 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Overtime — Regutar employees

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27. — Al­
though the long-awaited Hoover
report has not yet been Issued,
certain of its tentative features
have already been revealed.
It appears probable that one of
the recommendations will be that
favoritism be outlawed from the
public service. Under this provi­
sion, any federal officials who
would hUe, promote, or fire a
civil service employee for personal
or political reasons would be him­
self dismissed.
Officially, the attitude of the
government is that discrimination
has no place in the public service.
However. It is common knowledge
that discrimination occurs — for
political, personal, racial or re­
ligious reasons. President Roose­
velt was squarely on record against
discrimination In the Federal ser­
vice. President Truman in Feb­
ruary 1947 issued a flat sts^tement against discrimination in

While the primary object of at­
tending commercial and trade
schools is to prepare oneself for
one’s first job on the basis of the
valuable training thus acquired,
another reason is to provide a
safeguard for those presently em­
ployed.
There are certain basic skills
constantly in demand, an addi­
tional, reason for taking courses in
these bram'hes of endeavor. Also,
some persons would like to change
from theit present occupation, in­
dependent of economic conditions.
They take school training a,s the
best mean? of providing the
means.
Tlie greatest difliculty in obtain­
ing a job Is faced by those who
say they can “do anything,” which
employers take to mean that they
can do nothing in particular. The
fact may well be that the job­
seeker is capable, resourceful and
Industrious, but the employer must
have some proof of skill. Training
is taken as excellent proof.
Study Courses Pay Oflf
Civil service commissions rate
candidates onljr on their training
and experien'Ce, for jobs for which
there is no great competition, be­
cause the field is limited and the
degree of skill, experience and
expertness is usually high.
Being equipped with definite,
useful skills has always paid out,
either for original entrance into
the ranks of the gainfully em­
ployed. for transferring to some
other occupation or for providing
oneself with at lea.st one alternate
opportunity for fUJing a well-paid
job, if for any reason a present
job turns out to be not at all that
one desires.
Those employed by branches of
government take study courses to
improve their scores in promotion
examinations and to gain as high
an efficiency rating as possible.
Academic courses as well as spe­
cialized ones are taken by a m­
bitious public employees. Efficiency
Merit Enterpri.ses, publishers of
“Haridbook for New York City

Civil Service Commission U. S. Workers' Pay
Reminds Hoover It Doesn't On Par With Industry'
Do the U. S. Hiring
Asked by Commissioii
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.— The
U, S. CJivil Service Commission
called attention to the fact that
despite the reports of the news­
paper interviews with former Pres_
ident Herbert Hoover, in favor of
restoration of direct hiring by
departments, it does not hire
Federal employees, except Its own
personnel; and that except f<H* a
few isolated Instances in war
emergencies, it never has done so.
The Commission Issued this
statement:
“The Commission holds com­
petitive examinations for specified
positions when there is a need
for government personnel, sets up
registers of the applicants who
have successfully passed the tests,
and certifies names of persons so
qualified to appointing officers in
the agencies. The agencies now
hire, and have always hired, their
employees from these lists, and
fired them also.
"Decentralization has already
become the policy of the Civil
Service Conmiission. Since Ex­
ecutive Order 9691 of February
4, 1946, the Commission has given
authority to Committees of Ex­
pert Examiners and Boards of
Examiners in Government agen­
cies to issue announcements for
examinations for certain types of
personnel, and to hold the tests
for these positions. This decen­
tralizing of examining procediires
is a part of the Commission’s
program and is under supervision
of the Commission. In the field
service (outside of the departmen­
tal service in Washington) a large
percentage of the examinations
has been held by these examining
boards.
“For specialized positions, this
method has been found satisfac­
tory in most instances. Not all
agencies have taken advantage
of It, and there is a general feel­
ing that for large groups, such
as stenographers, typists, clerks,
accountants, etc., the general ex­
amination held by the Commis­
sion on a wide-area basis, has
proven to be the most satlf^factory and least expensive.”
Mr. Hoover heads a special

torial, page 6.— Ed.]
Latest straw In the wind
statement made by James M.i
chell before the Columbia P^e
tion of Federal Employees Unii
The statement is significant
cause Mr. Mitchell is the ne
appointee to the U. S. Civil
vice Commission — appointed
President Truman only last
mer.
Mr. Mitchell said that the
scale of .Federal workers “shff
provide pay comparable to
received in industry.” He add
“While pay Is only one facto
employment, all too often
Government has suffered from
lack of such a pay scale. Inm
cases it has not been able to
tract the best-qualifled per.
and it has not been able to
the best-qualified personnel
some categories.
Truman’s View
“At the time President Trun
signed the Federal Employees
ary Act of 1948, he said that
act met neither the needs of
employees nor those of the G
ernment. He added: ‘In the
terest of correcting this In
erable situation and strengthen
and improving the career sen
I shall urge that the Congressr'
legislation which will set I
eral pay scales at the proper!e
for all employees, including me
bers of the Cabinet and thenef
of the Independent agencies,
well as persons who are occupy
key positions in the professio
scientific and technical fielo^
modernize and simplify the^‘,
ification Act of 1923, and J
again provide a proper reiai«
ship between jobs.’”

Gertrude McNally, NFFE secprior to the inaugural. The Congiess would not get down to ac­ retary-treasurer, said:
“The Federation hopes that
tual legislation until the latter
part of January or early in Feb­ the Congress wiU act as early as
ruary. Meantime, rtiany bills de­ possible on revision of the Classi­
signed to carry out employee pro­ fication Act, using the Flanders
grams will be introduced in both Bill of the 80th Congress as a
base. This measure passed the
Houses.
Senate and represented a soundly
progressive approach to the whole
problem.”

S ick L e a v e R e c re d its
ytting O nes Job for M ilita ry Duty
iffies N o Restoration Rights
I ^urNrTTON, Dec. 27— The
tfilSei’Vice Commission has
?H Its regulations to prohdt war-servlce and temwdeflnite employees who
positions after Dec^ 1948 , for active service
1-med forces will not have
rights to their civilian
ns after the completion of
“Military service.
"p h a v e been two types of
-fafion rights for Federal emle a v in g civilian positions
/ iiifArv service. These are;
Satutory” restoration rights,
L on provisions of the Seleotrfralning and Service Act of
V and the Selective Service
f.i 1948,which apply only to
nfpes leaving nontemporary
MIS and (2) “regulatory”
ation rights, based on pro­
visions of the Commission’s regu­
lations, which apply to war-ser*
vice or temporary indefinite em­
ployees. Only regulatory rights are
affected by the (diange which has
been made, and only the rights of
war‘ S e r v i c e and temporary indefi­
nite employees leaving after Dec­
ember 31 are affected.
Under regulatxxry restoration,
employees were restored to their
former positions or positions of
like seniority, status, and pay in
the same geographical locality.
There were certain limitations
placed on these restorations, such
as the provision that their re­
employment may not require the
removal of an employee with a
higher retention preference, an
employee* with permanent status,
for instance.
One of the principal reasons for
B ro a d e n e d fo r 2 C ro u p s
not granting regulatory restora­
tion rights to employees leaving
after December 31 is the likeli­
hood that they may build up false
hopes oonceining the possibilities
of restoration to their positions.
By the time employees who enter
active duty after December 31
complete their military service,
few would be eligible for restora­
tion. By that time, it is expected
that most positions will be filled
by employees with permanent sta­
tus as the result of the Commis­
sion’s post-war conversion prograrrt. Employees with permanent
status would therefore retain the
posltlqns, since they would have
greater retention preference rights,
even though returning war-servlce
and temporaay indefinite employ­
ees had been granted restoration
rights.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27— The
U. S. leave regulations have been
amended to provide for the recrediting of unused sick leave to
two additional classes of e m ­
ployees when they return to posi­
tions under the Sick Leave Act of
1936 covering practically all pos­
itions in the Washington, D. C.,
area. Employees who will benefit
by the amendments are:
1. A wax-service or temporary
indefinite employee separated from
a position by displacement order
of the Commission will be re­
credited with his sick leave upon
his return to a Federal position
within one year after notice of
his proposed separation. This pro­
vision has previously been appli­
cable only to employees separated
by reduction in force.
2. Employees who, between Jan­

left positions under the Sick Leave
Act of 1936 for positions under
other leave acts (Foreign Service
po.sitions of the State Depart­
ment, for example) may, upon re­
turn to a position under the Act,
be recredited with the sick leave
they had when they left their or­
iginal positions. -In order to qual­
ify for this provision, employees
must not have had a break In
Government service of sufficient
length (depending upon the per­
iod in which it occured) to cause
forfeiture of their leave. The reg­
ulations have previously provided
for recrediting sick leave for per­
sons under the Sick Leave Act af­
ter July 1, 1946, but contained no
provision for persons who left dur­
ing the preceding 18-month period.
The amendments are effective
immediately.

(Continued from Page 1)
The city has so far strictly ad­
hered to the policy of making
permanent appointments at the
entrance-pay level. Since some of
the provisionals — those who
passed no test to get their un­
steady appointment— later passed
an examinatioTT, and meanwhile
had been given salary increases,
they would revert to the present
entrance salary. The Commission
has one provisional clerk, for in­
stance, who would lose $600 on
receiving permanent appointment;
the Welfare Department has n u m ­
erous clerks who would lose up to
$240; other departments have simjlar examples.
No de<;ision has been made by
the Budget Director as to any
cutoff level, but an effort will be
made to hold the reduction with­
in reasonable limits and to avoid
Inflicting hardship.
Some heads of departments have
felt that if provisionals, in gain­
ing the permanency that goes with
regular appointment from a com­
petitive list, lose $180 a year that
is a fair price to pay for the bene,
fit of a steady job, with incre­
ments that will bring them! back
to where they were. Increments
usually, but not invariably, carry
an employee in the Increment
group to the top of the grade.
“I don’t think, that many will
lose much more,” said Mr. Pat­
terson. “I know that some of
the provisional employees are up­
set, especially as e^’gible lists like
Clerk, Grade 2 and Typist, Grade
2, are soon to be published, and
Incumbent provisionals are re­
ceiving more than the appointment
rate.
“I think the trouble is that we
gave Increases in permanent pay
to provisionals and now ithat
friendly gesture is coming home
to haunt us. It used to be that
v^hen we appointed a provisional
we gave him a job. Period.
A Promise on the ‘Unusual*
“So far we have held to the pol­
icy of appointment on a perman­
ent basis at the budgetary ap­
pointment rate. If there are any
claims of unusual reduction in
pay, such special appeals should
be addressed to us by the depart­
ment heads and we’ll see whether
the cases come within the cate­
gory of unusual exceptions.’*
Beside the permanent pay ad­
dition from which provisionals
benefited, 'some receivcl incre­
ments, and th^ result is that they
are hundreds of dollars beyond the
entrance pay. If they receive
perma;ient appointments while
some provisionals are still retained,
provisionals get more pay than
permanent employees, though only
for a while.
Mr. Patterson showed concern
over any large reductions In pay
resulting from application of the
policy of appointment rates for all
named from a list, whether provisionala or not. He pointed out
that if such a policy were not
generally pursued, there would be
a multiplicity of appointment
rates that would snarl the city’s
budget.

The eligible list for promotion
to Sergeant (P.D.) is being re­
processed and was expected to be
In final form by January 11,
so it can be used for certifications.
The Commission got busy as soon
as a decision by the Appellate Di­
vision, in a case Involving the list,
made it possible.
There are 260 Acting Sergeants,
or provisional promotees, practi­
cally all of whom expect to be on
the revised eligible list.
The first revision was necessita­
ted by a Court of Appeals decision
holding that only one “best”
answer could appear in the official
key, as the notice on the examina­
tion paper required. Of the nine
disputed questions, the Commis­
sion changed its key to honor
one answer only, in each of seven,
but eliminated the two other ques­
tions. The petitioning Patrolmen
sued to compel a “best” answer
for these two, also, but lost in
the Supreme Court and unani­
mously In the Appellate Division.
They’re seeking Court of Appeals
authority to appeal. The Appellate
