THEY TOO ARE VETERANS It is no w onder th a t death reap s a rich harvest among retired public employees. They gave th e ir best skills and energy fo r long years to the State u n d er th e illusion th a t the State in retu rn would give a m easure of security and com fort to th e ir last years. There are, of course, pensioners who have generous pensions. They are th e favored few who received the la rg e r salaries, who m ade the highest possible contribu­ tions to retirem en t annuity, or who w orked beyond the stan d a rd th ree score and five years. The vast m ajority of pensions receive a nominal pension, too small to sui)port life—to say nothing of comfoi-t—in these years of high prices. The average pension is between $900 and $1,000 a year. They Kttvn\ Too ^ No doubt th e Governor, th e Com ptroller and the of­ ficials of th e Retirem ent System know th e facts as well as I . No doubt they receive letters from fo rm er associates and employees from all over the world, as I do, asking for the substance promised in th e ir retirem en t contracts with the State, and refusing by reason of th eir great need to be satisfied with elusive statem ents of constitutional limitations or federal interference with money and credit, or the incidence of inflation, or the universality of high prices. I am sure the seriousne.ss of the problem is recognized in high places. W hy then has so little been done to pro­ tect the good faith of the State in its dealings with its form er employees? Old and Disvoura^od In my opinion, the first reason is that the peiisioriers are not strongly organized and have no real voice in the Legislature and in the D epartm ents concerned. The pensioners are widely scattered. They are old and dis­ couraged. They have, either from ignorance or from negligence, mostly allowed their memborsliip in the Civil Service Employees Association to lapse. They have al­ lowed th e ir attention to be diverted to a minor issue at W ashington which, while im portant, is not the crux of the m atter. D o n ’/ Dpveive Them It is quite possible th a t the pensioners will be put off again with uncertain promises and u nim portant bills. They should not be deceived or deluded. The only solution to the g re a t need is emergency pension increase. This should ih my opinion take the form of (1) applying to present pension paym ents the same percentage emergency in­ creases th a t have been applied to the salaries of state employees or (2) apply a minimum pension plan th a t may be enacted to apply to present pensions as well as to future retired employees. Ju st and even generous action is'lo n g overdue. The Civil Service Employees Association will do w h at it can. Every retired employee can help through memborsliip in the Association, In his article.

A Sif(n of Strength The Legion sponsored the Condon m easure last year. W h a t th e enactm ent of this measure would mean to gov€*rnment— and the bitterness it would create between vetei’an and veteran— have already been amply documented. It would be evidence of bigness and strength on the Legion’s p a rt if it w ere to get behind the Mitchell bill, and toi^ether with the other civic and civil service groups, help enact it into law. The alternative would be a bitter, costly, knock-down drag-out fight. This is not w h at the Legion w jp ts. This not w h at any of the groups behind the Mitchell bill want. It w’ould leave awful scars. It would help nobody. Unity behind.the Mitchell bill is the answer. The I^EADER asks the Legion to join in getting the effective, fairly-drawii Mitchell bill enacted into law.

T h e bills: 1. M ilitary Credits Bill: T his w ould allow th e am ount of tim e s p e n t in th e arm ed forces in th e com p utatio n of a veteran 's salary grades. Passage of th e m easure would m ean an n u al salary in ­ creases ranging from $200 to $400. 2, S alary Lcgrislation: A salary Increase of $1,250 is sought. T h e F ed eratio n feels th e need of such a n increase is indicated by B ureau of L abor S tatistic s figures, in or­ d e r to restore c u rre n t pu rchasing pow er to th e 1939 level. S alary legislation now pending before Congress calls for a n increase of $650; However, an effort is being m ade to revise th is figure upw ard to $1,250. 3. A m endm ent to C om pensation a n d In ju ry A ct: C om pensation now paid in cases of p erm a n en t in ju ry according to law is based on th e salary th a t th e postal em ­ ployee received ten years ago. T h e objective of th e am en dm ents is to base com pensation on th e existing an n u al salary. 4. Liberalized V acation an d Sick Leave: O bjective of th is bill Is to b ring postal vacations a n d sick leave up to th e sam e level as th a t g ra n te d to all o th er U nited S tates G overnm ent Employees. W hile th e y receive 26 days of a n n u a l SERVICE Tuesdaf, Jamiary 25^ LEADER v ac atio n and 15 days of a n n u a l sick leave, th e po stal em ployees are g ra n te d only 15 days of v a ­ c a tio n a n d 10 days of sick leave. 5. Longevity C redit: T h e C lass­ ification Act of 1945 stip u lated additional Income foi’ those of a sta te d len g th of service. How­ ever, Its provisions did n o t In ­ clude service perform ed prio r to th e passage of th e Classification Act. T h e am endm ents now p ro ­ posed would order th a t all em ­ ployees w ho h av e served th e r e ­ quired num ber of years be given longevity pay. 6.

M cG rath. T h e opinion more closely d e ­ fines th e lim its of retro ac tiv e Beniority. T he C orporation C ou n­ sel h a d previously rendered an opinion on th e subject. He says, in effect, th a t Inverse Beniority, w hich perm its a v e te r­ a n to sh are th e seniority of th e eligible next lower down on r.he list who h a d been appointed or pro m o ted, Is no t to be based on (Standing gained a fte r such p rio r a p p o in tm e n t or prom otion. The rulings on retroactive Beniority are im p o rta n t n o t only because of th e weight of seniority in prom otion exam inations, bu t even eligibility to tak e such p ro ­ m otions. T h e retroactiv e se n io r­ ity m akes m any employees eli­ gible who otherwi.se w ouldn’t be. Mr. M cG rath in h is opinion in te rp re ts Section 246, subdivisions 6. 7, 7a an d 7b, of th e S ta te M ili­ ta r y Law. T h e au th o rity to g ra n t re tro ­ active seniority is expre.ssed in th e s ta tu te as follows: public employee a p ­ pointed from such special eligible list or from such prom otion eli­ gible list, a fte r passing a com ­ p a ra b le exam ination as h ere in provided, shall, for th e purpose Of com puting seniority credit, an d tr a in in g a n d experience cre d it up o n prom otion and seniority In th e event of suspension or dem o­ tion , be deemed to have been a p ­ po inted on th e earliest d ate upon Which any eligible, who was lower on th e regular prom otion eligible list, was appointed. * * *'’ F orm er Opinion I n his previous opinion, d ated J u n e 25, 1948, Mr. M cG rath a d ­ vised Budget D irector T h om as J. P a tte rso n th a t a di.sabled v eteran w hose place on th e list p ro m u l­ g ated a fte r com petitive ex a m in ­ a tio n was 8.3 was en titled to p rim a ry preference a n d should be regarded as being No. 1 on th e list, for purposes of ap p o in tm en t or prom otion. He recalled: “I th e re fo re concluded th a t a p e r­ son th e re a fte r retu rn in g from w ar service whose stan d in g on th e list was 7.5 was not entitled to r e ­ troactive seniority back to th e d a te of the disabled v e te ra n ’s a p ­ po in tm en t.” T he answers given to two new questions are in th e sam e d irec­ tion. T he key is th a t th e v eteran is entitled to have his seniority lig h ts com puted to th e d ate of a p p o in tm e n t or prom otion of an eligible whose nam e was lower down on th e list by ap p o in tm en t o rd er as of th e tim e th e first m ention ed app ointm ent or p ro ­ m otion was made. Answers th e Q uestions M r. M cG rath th e n continues, addre.ssing th e Commission: “T h e questions asked by you are answered by th e ap plication of th is ocnclusion to th e fac ts of th e following two typical cases: “ 1. C andidates A and B pass a com petitive exam ination, A a c h ­ ieves a stan din g of No. 10 on th e list an d B achieves a sta n d in g of No. 4, However, because A is a disabled veteran, lie is en titled to th e first ap pointm ent so th a t, in a legal sense, he is No. 1 on th e ‘eligible list.’ B leaves for m ili­ ta ry service and wliile he is away, A is appointed. T h ereafter, B re ­ tu rn s and is appointed. "N otw ithstanding th e fa c t tlia t B h a s become a disabled veteran . he is not entitled to retroactive sen iority based upon th e d ate of A’s ap pointm ent. T h e reason for th is result is th a t “A” was never “lower on (the) eligible lis t” w ith ­ in th e m eaning of M ilitary Law S ection 248 subd. 7. W hen A was appointed “B ” h a d no sta tu s as a disabled veteran w hich would have required his ap p o in tm en t to t h a t of A. “2, C andidate A passes a com ­ petitive exam ination an d achieves a sta n d in g of No. 10 on a list. However, because C andidate “A” Is a disabled v eteran, w ithin th e m eaning of th e C onstitution, A r­ ticle V, Section 6, he is en titled to an d receives th e first ap p o in t­ m ent, so th a t in th e legal sen.se, he is No. 1 on th e ‘eligible list.’ At th e tim e A is appointed, B is ab sen t on m ilitary service. There-* a fte r, B retu rn s to City service an d is perm itted to take a com ­ p arable exam ination, p u rsu a n t to M ilitary Law Section Section 246, subd. 5. He achieves a place upon th e list equivalent to No. 8 an d is appointed. “N otw ithstanding th e fac t th a t B is a disabled veteran, h e is no t entitled to retroactive seniority based upon th e d ate of A’s a p ­ pointm ent. T he rea.son for th is result is th a t A was never lower on th e ‘eligible list’ th a n B, w ith in th e m eaning of M ilitary Law S ec­ tion 246. subd. 5. A was, in legal effect an d for purposes of a p ­ po intm ent, No. 1 on th e list. At th e d ate of A’s app ointm en t, B h a d no sta tu s as a disabled v et­ e ra n w hich would have en titled him to app ointm ent prior to t h a t of A. B did n o t achieve h is dis­ abled v e te ra n ’s sta tu s u n til h e retu rn ed from m ilitary service. B is th erefore en titled only to retro active seniority from th e d ate on w hich he was actually passed over by th e ap p o in tm en t of a n o n -v ete ra n lower th a n he on th e list. T his result would follow w hether th e persons involved were disabled or non-disabled v eterans or oth er persons entitled to r e ­ troactive seniority u n d er th e M il­ ita ry Law, such as m em bers of th e M erchant M arine or th e R ed Cross.” Y O R K LEADER C IT Y (C o n tin u e d fr o m Tuesday, January, ^3 N EW S S u it b y 1 ,0 0 0 A sk s C a rto n P a g e 1) nam ed as plaintiffs, lives In Queens.
