55-Year Bill

1950 Agenda
ALBANY. April 11—In an e x ­
clusive interview w ith T h e L EA D ­
ER, S ta te S en ator Seym our
pern promi.sed to “m ake p assage
of th e 55-year retiaem ent bill tlie
num ber 1 item on m y agend a for

latu re.” S en ator H alpern, w ho
w ith A ssem blym an N oonan had
introduced th e bill a t th e session
recently ended, said he would try
to get th e bill in as th e first
m easure of any kind to be in tro ­
duced. “I w ant it to bear in tro ­
ductory num ber 1 and print n u m ­
ber 1,” h e added
“T liat w ay
everybody will x'emember it.”
T h e m easure, sponsored by the
Civil Service E m ployees A.ssociation, was close to passage at the
recent session, and S en ator H a l­
pern says th a t if it h ad come
to a straigh t vote, “it surely would
h ave p assed.” T h e m easure was
stym ied, near th e se ssio n ’s end,
by action o f th e G overnor’s oflice
and of legislative leaders.
Senator H alpern said, however:
“I feel as certain as I can of

ring som e unforeseen situation
th a t no one can predict — the

ALBANY, April 11— Tlae M itchell
bill, passed overw helm ingly by
both hou ses of th e Legislature,
m ay still face th e tou ghest flght
o f its storm y career. T h ose who
had steered th e bill through safe
passage tw ice in th e Legislature,
m et liist Saturday to determ ine
its future course.
A move is under w ay loo, am ong
■some strategists o f th e three major
veteran organizations, T he LEAD­
ER learns, to organize a s ta te ­
wide drive to d efeat th e bill at
the polls in November. Should
this m ove becom e m ore su b stan ­
tial. it could herald a wide sp lit
in th e ranks of th e veteran or­
ganization s on th is subject.
A co n stitu tio n a l am en dm ent,
backed by civil service and som e
veteran groups, th e M itchell bill
would set up a point preference
for veterans in civil service a p ­
pointm ents. It d efeat would leave
the non-disabled veteran w ithout
preference in 1950.
T h e Background T hinking
B eh in d th e talk in som e v e t­
eran circles for a statew ide c a m ­
paign against th e bill is th e fe e l­
in g th a t its d efeat would give
th em a “m and ate for a Oondontype b ill” at th e 1950 session of
th e Legislature.
In addition su ch a cam paign,
if successful, is expected to re­
store the sh attered prestige which
certain leaders of the veterans
organizations sulTered w hen the
L egislature overw helm ingly passed
th e M itchell bill in preference to
th e Condon m easure, w hich the
A m erican Legion h ad sponsored.
One big talking point now being
used is th a t d efeat of th e M itcliell
bill would “save absolute pref­
erence for th e disabled veteran,”
w hich ho is slated to lose under
the new am endm ent. N on-disabled
vetfMans, on th e other hand, are
am ong th e strongest opponents of
such “absolute” preference, cla im ­
ing th a t m an y so-called “disabled”
veterans aren ’t really disabled.
T he Jokers
W hether the big drive can be
pulled off. liowever, is considered
questionable. T hose veteran lea d ­
ers who know practical politics
realize a “hidden joker” in th e

"ACCORDING TO MERIT AND FITNESS"
O NE frequently w onders at tlie publications of the
State of N ew York. Many of them, of course, are
written and printed because they are required by law.
Some are supposed to impart necessary information about
departm ent functions and activities to the members of
the Legislature. A number are chiefly concerned with of­
ficial orders and information for the staff of the depart­
ment. A small minority are written for the people to
read. V e iy few of the great public read any of these
publications, and only a sm all minority of these few read
them gladly.
It is, therefore, som ew hat o f an event when a live,
attractive and interesting booklet on Civil Service as the
servant o f all the people and the key to good public ad­
ministration makes it appearance. It is a novel experience
to find new policies clearly explained, technical matters
discussed in simple, intelligible language and the reason
given for new devices and novel experiments.
B r e a k i n g A tv a y F r o m T r a d i ti o n
“Civil Service Administration in New York State”
marks a break with the conventional past and an adven­
ture into the uncertain future. “In 1948,” writes the Com­
mission, “we broke aw ay from traditional m ethods . . .
a lot of old ideas went into the trash basket and new ones
were m arshalled. W e w anted to show the kaleidoscopic
variety and the endless fascination of work in the public
service, for the public good. W e w anted to tell about the
contributions public servants have made to our w elfare,
our material w ell-being and our culture. W e wanted to
inject color and the breath of life into the old words
‘civil service’
There are brief sections on “ Paying the Em ployee”
and “Training the E m ployee” which every em ployee will
wish to read. The aim of the training program is “to
help the employee develop to the limit of his capacit.v
and to give the taxpayer ( “p eople” would be better)
better service by stepping up efficiency in government offices.
The test of any public service lies chiefly in its in­
telligence and its vitality. It is a common mistake to over­
organize until fixed patterns take the place of life-giving
blood and creative brains. That w ay lies stagnation.
In this confession of faith by the Commission, the em­
ployees may, I think, take much satisfaction. The Com­
mission declares its role to be that of the “Steward of the
Merit System ” . It may, therefore, be expected to fight
side by side with The Civil Service Em ployees Association
to build a single, unified merit service rather than a loosely
knit federation of separatist departments. It must recog­
nize in deeds as fully as in words, that it is the agency
beyond all others that m akes the public service tick as a
single igreat team w ith common ideals, common methods
and a single aim of service and fair play.

GAS RATES
a l l
r a is e
in
h a v e
t w e n t y - s ix
In the face of all this we simply couldn't
contiaue to cut electric rates as we have
done again and again. And since we were
losing m oney on o u r gas business, an
adjustm ent in gas rates became absolutely
necessary.
y e a r s .
I t costs more to make electricity and gaa
th an it did a few years ago. Ju st as you
need more to live on these days, it costa
Con Edison more, too, for fuel, wages,
taxes, materials and supplies.
A t the same time, we m ust earn enough
to offer people a fair return if they invest
their savings w ith us. We need their money
to build the new plants and other facilities
called for by New York^s ever-increasing
demand for more and more light, heat and
power—an expansion program th a t is
costing 435 million dollars.
There was nothing else we could do b u t
appeal for increased gas rates and ask th a t
th e cut in electric rates ordered early this
year be held up.
B oth requests have been temporarily
granted, b u t the m atters are still being dis­

How's the State
Commission Doing?
h e s t a t e Civil service .Commission has shown so
remarkable a forward spiu*t in the past year that the
present favorite indoor sport of some people, known as
“knocking the block off" the Commission, looms as irrespon­
sible, if not worse.
i’roper criticism of any department is desirable. This
newspaper has never hesitated to point out what we deemed
deficiencies in the Commission’s attitudes or procedures.
But ii-rcsponsible blatherskite is something else again. And
criticism based on ignorance of the facts cannot be excused.
The facts are:
Improvement in the relationship between the Civil Ser­
vice Commission and public employees has betm greater than
in any other department. The “conference method,” pro­
viding for full and free discussion of all problems, has
operated exceedingly well in this department, to the ad­
vantage of all. Early antagonisms and suspicion have evapoi-ated, as the Commission has learned the desirability of
woi-kiiig closely with the employees.
One individual who knows State government extremely
well told The LEADER: “There has been more improve­
ment in the Civil Service Commission within the past three
yeai*s than in the preceding 30."
The I.EADER wouldn’t go that far. The statement is
mentioned to indicate the fact that people are becoming
aware of a new atmosphei*e within the precincts of Stat^
civil sei’vice.
T
Improvements in Procedures
The LEADER has already pointed out certain impoi-iant improvements in procedures. The Commission sup­
plies fai* greater information about its activities than ever
bcfoi-e. The time-dilferential between the holding of exnminations and the appearance of eligible lists has been
fchai-ply reduced, and the Commission is trying for a threemonth interval—just about the fastest work of this kind
being done any\irfiere. New experiments in types of exam­
inations and in he selection of persons eligible to take the
exams, are getting a tryout in Commission headquarters.
This year, the Commission has gone in for a strong
p]‘ogram of in-service training. The enormous popularity
of this program shows that it is on the right track. Ad­
mitted, it took a lot of pushing to get the Commission behind
the pi*og]-am. But one of the characteristics of the agency
is just that— even though it may be slow to start something
new, once the plaii’s merit is indicated, the Commission goes
all out to do it well. In this respect, we note the endeavor
of the (^omnn'ssion to get the best ability for the State, from
the universities and wherever else it can be found. We

interpreted in som e D em ocratic
quarters as a shrew d political m ove
if O ’D wyer in tend s to n m again.
H ere’s w hy: N ew York C ity’s ca b ­

Y ou’ll see. T h is opp osition goes
back long before th e D en n y Lewis

bies see it as cops vs. ta x i drivers.
T h ey consider O ’D w yer a cop and

popular M eehan, a lth o u g h

T he present w ire-tap p in g m ess

R yan m ay be a stron g factor in
O ’D w yer’s decision to i*un or not
to run.
B ut w hatever th e decision , it will
h ave to be an nou nced by July,
probably earlier, in order to p er­
m it an elim ination am on g pros­

th e paftty a ch a n ce to build up

view, th e m aterial available to th e
D em ocrats does n o t a t th is point
look overw helm ingly rew arding,
an y m ore th a n does th e available
m aterial in th e opposition ranks.
It ca n be predicted th a t if
O ’Dwyer is out of th e run ning, a

Surrogate C ollins
If O ’Dwyer were out o f th e race.
Surrogate C ollins’ n a m e would be
heard w ith ever in o ie a sin g fr e ­
quency in th e clubhouses. As a
m atter o f fa ct, even on e G O P
leader h a s been ta lk in g about g e t­
tin g Collins, a D em ocrat, on th e
R epublican ticket. H ere’s w hat
h e told D on ’t R ep eat T h is:
“F usion an d th e R epub licans
really h a v en ’t got anybody. W in dels and th e rest are flat. T h e
only big possibility is R obert P a t­
terson, but h e ’s n o t available.

D ew ey to reestablish th e G O P in
th e City, h e m ig h t ask Surrogate
C ollins to run. A fter all. it was
D ew ey who m ad e C ollins a Surro­
gate, and o f course th e D em ocrats
h ad to go along. D ew ey an d C ol­
lin s are p ersonally friend ly. A t
th e sam e tim e, C ollins is on e o f
th e m ost popular D em ocrats in
N ew Y ork.”
I f Oollins could be sold th is
Idea, h e m ig h t be a cin ch. H e
m ig h t conceivably even be n o m ­
in ated on both tickets. I f th e race
were to. be betw een C ollins and
O ’Dwyer, it would be a tou gh one.
B u t if Collins knew th a t O ’Dwyer
were running, h e p io b a b ly would
not enter th e lists ag a in st him .
In fa ct, h e ’s said m an y nice th in gs
about O’Dwyer. T h e ch a n ce o f
Collins d oing a Jo n a h G oldstein

Moreover, alth ough h e on ce w anted

The Defects
l'>i‘fecls are, of couj’se, present. Perhaps the greatest
of tiu'se defi'cts can be described as timidity. The Com­
mission has, in our opinion, too often been guilty of yield­
ing to pressui-e, Thei'e has been too deep a tendency to
play it safe— and play it safe with the people who have
powei-. But even here, we are bold enough to suggest that
the lessons of the past few years are so clear that the com­
promises and the yielding will not seem the only ways of
dealing with problems in this area. There is a quality in
“standing up” for what is right that brings respect. And
even in the heavily-cliarged atmosphere of Albany politics,
it is possible to work towai-d the improvement of merit
in
goverimient. We think the Civil Service Commission
more and more is coming around to this point of view—
and acting on it.

Tips on Passing
Physical Test for
Sanitation Man
■y
H.
J.
BERNARD
T here are two fu n d am en tal co n ­
siderations w hich all cand id ates
who w ant to pass high in th e only
com petitive asp ect of th e S a n ita ­
tion M an <^CIass B ) exam ination
— the physical te st— m ust respect.
T he two are: 1, P ractice; 2 , F o l­
low a gradual system of physical
training, w hich requires starting
well in advance of the exa m ­
ination.
T he w ritten test is scheduled
fcr S aturday. June 11, th e m ed ­
icals will follow, but both are
q ualifying only, th a t is, no per­
cen tage ratings are given. T he
phy.^jical test will be given only
In th ose w ho pa.ss the two other
tests and will begin th is summer.
T he eligible list is expected to be
ready before the end of th e year.
One o f th e elem entary rules
iibout physical preparation is to
do it wisely, not too m uch of it
in any one day. w ith never so
much, exercise th a t one become.s
slifl' or stale.
Start with Hour a Day
It is advisable to start with an
hour's physical effort a day, keep
that up foi two m onths, th en try
two hours a day. Im provem ent will
c(jnf,inue riglit up to th e day of
the phy.sical test.
In the w eig h t-liftin g the sam e
rule o f mioderation applies. D on ’t
start w ith an 80-pound weight.
Start w ith 40 or 50 iJOunds, so m e­
th ing th a t you can lift w ith one
arm w ith ease. G radually increase
the weight. T en -p ou n d steps are
con.sidered advisable increases, in ­
troduced two weeks or so apart.
T he schools th a t have courses
in phy.sical preparation for th e ex am in alion h ave the schem e all
worked out, so th a t th e candidate
.simply follow s instructions.
Fellow s who are overw eight, or
who have weak abdom inal muscles,
will find th a t th e stren gth test
will prove difficult. P ot bellies
cause disqualification, not because
th e y ’re listed in th a t way, but b e­
cause can d id ates who have them
c a n ’t lie down, have a heavy
w eight on their necks, and rise to
a sittin g po.sition. N either can
the fellow s w ith weak abdominal
muscles.
n i e physical com petition will be
slilT. Y oungsters will be com ­
peting again.st youngsters, in th e
21 to 29 age groups, and besides
th ere’ll bo those in th e 30 to 35
category: th ese will find th a t th e
physical test provides the keene.st
com petition.
O verw eight also becom es a d is­
qu alifying factor in the agility
lest, w hich is a stand ing broad
jum p, because th e fattie.*; ca n ’t
make th e grade. B u t th is test is
a paradise for th e sk inn y guys, as
well as th e fellow s w ith sinew y
m uscles and no fat.
Broad Jum p Tip
In th e broad jum p, take th is
tip. P ractice it. D o n ’t try to
jiunp far th e first few tim es. A l­
ways try to m ake th e n ex t d a y’s
be.st jum p cover greater d istan ce
th an th e best one o f the day be­
fore. Also, and th is is extrem ely
im portan t, alw ays fall forward at
the ju m p ’s finish, never back­
wards. T lie trouble w ith th e back
flop is nhat you get credit only
for th e point w here you land. If
your hand or h a u n ch es h it the
ground behind your feet, your feet
d on ’t get th e credit, but th e other
member does. Your score is great­
ly lessened. A nd remem ber th a t
th is is th e physical test, th e only
one in w liich th e percentages are
given.
“I t ’s a considerable w aste of
tim e, effort and m oney,” said Paul
M. B renn an, director of the NYC
Civil Service C om m ission’s M edi­
cal-P h y sica l B ureau, “to pass the
w ritten and th e m edical test, only
to flunk th e physical test for lack
or proper preparation, or to pass
th e w ritten, only to be disqualified
in th e m edical for being under
h eight, blind in one eye or d eaf
in one ear.”
K angaroo Jumi>crs
T he p hysical com petition will
bring out “can d id a tes w ho jum p
like kangaroos,” Mr. B ren n an
added, so a fellow who neglects
to train, unless h e is exceedingly
ath letic, is likely to wind up b e­
hind th e eight ball.
“In sh ow in g up for th e physical
te st,” added Mr. B ren nan , “th ere’s
no need to bring any fa n cy gym
suit. B a th in g su its will do, or ru n ­
n ing trunks and sleeveless shirt.
No ju m pin g shoes are needed, nor
spikes, but ordinary sneakers will
suffice. D o n ’t com e in your S u n ­
day su it w ith a starch ed w hite
shirt. You c a n bring your old
test cloth es in a bundle, bag, or
sa tch el.”
T he
C om m ission
is
getting
stricter and stricter about a b ­
sences. W h en you’re called for
the p hysical test, show up th a t day
and on tim e. Y ou m ay n ot be
given an oth er opportunity. If you
fail the test, d o n ’t squawk. Tiiere
are no reruns, unless som e u n ­
toward circu m stan ce h as prevented
fair com petition, like a fellow g e t­
tin g bum ped w h ile jum ping, or
being in terfered w ith in som e
other way.

The population of New York City in 1940 was 7,454,995.
Jn 1949, it is (NYC Health Department estimate) 8,146,000.
Yet fewer firefighters are available to protect the City than
there w^re nine years ago.
The City persists in leaving all Fire Department ranks
short of men, in refusing to raise the personnel quotas, in
keeping men— sometimes for years— as “acting” lieutenants,
“acting” captains, “acting” chiefs, instead of making the
necessary promotions.
