ALBANY, AprU 17 — Governor
Dewey has signed the new veterans preference bill. Beginning
January 1, 1951, a new system of
extra points for veterans taking
civil service examinations goes into effect.
The measure is the result of a
two-year legislative and referendum battle to alter the former
"absolute" preference system. The
actual legislation resulting from
the amendment was prepared by
a Governor's committee consisting

Bill Seeks Aid for

WASHINGTON, April 17—Senator Paul H. Douglas (D.-Ill.) is
drafting another bill for government employees, this time one to
give severance pay or unemployment compensation to employees
who are laid off. Senator Douglas
hopes to combine this measure
with bis earlier bill to limit employee leave from 12 to 20 days a
year, based on years of service. He
wants both bills to be passed at
the same time.
The Senator favors public hearings on his bills and wants to find
out what employees and their representatives have to say. He stated
that he wouldn't be cold to amendments to either of his measures.

ARER MANY DAYS
AT LONG LAST the salary structure and procedure of
the State is completed with the appointment of the Classification and Compensation Appeals Board by Governor
Dewey.
I wish first to extend the best wishes of the Association to these veteran State officials who have volunteered or
who have been drafted to solve the very important and difficult problems of unfair and inadequate pay in the State
service, and to make needed adjustments in positions and
in pay.

Coast Guard Cadets
Get Vet Preference
Gifts for a lob well doa«, oftor mor* than 10 yeors in th* Recho»ter

sented by John W. Dennin, Rochester District Tax Supervisor (extreme

Afeltra and Willord E. Hardies, who have been transferred to Buffalo,
Syracuse oad Utica, respectively.
ALBANY, April 17 — C a d e t s of
t h e U. S. Coast G u a r d Academy
were memt>ers of t h e a r m e d forces
on active service d u r i n g World
W a r I I a n d are entitled to vetera n s preference in civil service
exams. S t a t e Attorney General
Nathaniel L. Goldstein so ruled
last week.
The members assume these duties as a labor of love for
good civil service administration. Their new duties are
added to those of their regular exacting positions and pay
nothing except the satisfaction resulting from a difficult
and often thankless job, well done.
Much Is
Expected
The new Classification and Compensation Appeals
Board is composed of T. Harlow Andrews, Raymond W.
Houston and Everett N. Mulvey from the old Salary Standardization Board and Henry J. McFarland and William E.
Tinney, new appointees. The Association expects much from
the new board and offers full cooperation to the end that
unusual merit and ability may be attracted to the service
of the State, that high efficiency may be stimulated among
all the personnel, that skilled leadership may be developed,
that merit may have its just reward.
The duties of the Classification and Compensation
Appeals Board as provided in the Civil Service Law are to
determine all appeals filed with the board. To this end the
board "shall examine and review any such appeals and
may make such changes in classification or allocation as
may be just and equitable." The board reports its findings
to the employee affected as well as to the Departments concerned, to the Director of the Classification and Compensation Division and the Director of the Budget.
Two important
ISeiv Elements
There are two important new elements in procedure
now in effect—
(1) Classification appeals now go to the new Classification and Compensation Appeals Board and not to the Civil
Service Commission.
(2) Salary appeals presumably will continue to be considered first by the Director of the Classification and Compensation Division and only when the Director's determination is not accepted by the appellant employees, will
appeals be made to the Classification and Compensation
Appeals Board. The Appeal Board is not specifically required
to hold hearings on appeals, although it is expected that the
board will establish in its rules, methods and procedures
the widest possible opportunity for all concerned to furnish
facts and information that are necessary to arrive at a fair
determination of the salary or classification problems.
Compensation and Classification are two of the major
subjects covered in our Civil Service Law. They are, of
course, of special import to all State employees. The Civil
Service Employees Association has been the chief architect
of the provisions establishing a career service through the
Feld-Hamilton and the Feld-Ostertag Salary-Classification
Laws.
Musi Not Become
Inactive
The Association worked with the administration in
drafting the present salary provisions of the Civil Service
Law and has done its full share in trying to make the new
plan work. We will continue our policy of using the Classification and Compensation Division and the Classification and
Compensation Ap;peals Board as the proper instruments to
obtain proper upward adjustments of jobs and of pay. We
do not propose to sit silent and unconcerned if and when,
as has happened in the past, these agencies become inactive
or seemingly the instrument of some higher power in the
State.
The entire question of the validity of the classification
and compensation plan of the State will be before the Commission to revise the Civil Service Law in the near future.
The Association should be ready to hold fast to all that is
good in the present law, but it should eciualiy strive to get
rid of the law's manifest limitations, delays and inequities.
More of this later.

DowngradingsThe True
Meaning
F
ORTUNATELY, the state has not yet taken drastic
action on the proposal to cut salaries of Unemployment
Insurance Claims Examiners. There will be public hearings
on
the proposal,
and there is a good prospect that reasonable
counsel
will prevail.
It is evident that the point made on this page last week
was a proper one; that the action to downgrade salaries
acts effectively as a barrier to employee appeals. Employees
will be most hesitant to appeal for upgrading when they feel
that to do so may jeopardize the salaries of fellow employees.
It was obvious in the instinctive reaction all over the State
to the proposed downgrading,
J
A Matter of
Justice
One of the effective arguments which employees have,
in appealing for higher salary allocations to the State Division of Classification and Compensation, is a comparison
with duties and responsibilities in other jobs. This is what
the Employment interviewers and Senior Employment Interviewers did in their appeal for upgrading. They proved
the nature and quality of their woi-k is equivalent to that
performed by the Claims Examiners and Senior Claims
Examiners. The Classification Board accepted the justice
of this and upgraded the interviewers, but at the same
time said, in effect, "The examiners are getting paid too
much. So while we are raising the interviewers, we are
lowering the examiners, and where they meet we'll make
them equal."
This isn't even a money-saving device for the State,
because the jobs are paid for out of Federal moneys.
In resolving to lower the allocation of Claims Examiners, in G18 to G17, the Classification Board performed an
unscientific action. It can only have done this if it had restudied all the jobs in GIB and all their proper relationship.
What possible reason can be given for selecting these titles
at random and giving them such t)'eatment? The Board
might argue that the case of the Examiners is "unique."
But this argument cannot stand up. The action is a precedent, and is so accepted by employees. There are no factors
in this case that couldn't be applied to others. The "uniqueness" is apparently a decision of convenience, an attempt
to fall in line with the proposals, floating around in the
DPUI, that various job groupings become interchangeable.
It isn't within the purview'of the Classification and Compensation Board, however, to attempt to forecast the future
by a reallocation. Outward paj'ity is not enough.
We have seen some of the facts gathered by the claims
examiners. And we have no doubt that, at a public hearing
to be scheduled, they will dramatically prove their right not
only to the salary they earn but even to a higher one.
The Inner
Significance
But the real crux of this situation is the loss of confidence in the Classification and Compensation Division.
Suddenly, State employees find that this sturdy mechanism,
which they had learned to rely upon foi- justice and equity,
is but a fragile and bending insti'unient. Suddenly they feel
that an appeal for justice to one may i-esult in a hurt for
others. It isn't at all impossible that they may decide to
forego all appeals, in view of the pi-ospective danger to colleagues on the job.
This is the inner significance of the situation. This is
why the Board, in the inte)-est of preserving its own effectiveness, cannot allow the downgrading of the claim examiners to stand.

Do You Meet t h e Residence Re
fiuirements for Veterans
Preference?
By THEODORE lECKER
W E R E YOU a resident of New
York S t a t e when you entered
upon active service in t h e a r m e d
forces of t h e United S t a t e s ? If you
were a n d c o n t i n u e d in such service in war-time, t h e n were h o n o r ably discharged a n d were a resident of t h e S t a t e , you meet t h e
residence r e q u i r e m e n t s for vetera n s preference. Of course, you
m u s t also be a citizen.
T h i s residence r e q u i r e m e n t is
set u p in t h e S t a t e Constitution
a n d is incorporated in t h e p r e f e r ence provisions of Section 21 of
t h e Civil Service Law.
The requirement t h a t veterans
seeking preference u n d e r New
York S t a t e Law m u s t have been
residents of t h e S t a t e when they
entered t h e a r m e d forces, is clearly designed to confine t h e preference to those who were bona fide
New York S t a t e residents when
they entered upon military service.
Another law which a p p a r e n t l y
h a d t h e same i n t e n t was t h e one
providing bonuses for war veterans
or their wido"ws.
Veterans Bonus Residence
T h i s law required t h e veteran to
have been a New York S t a t e resid e n t for a t least six m o n t h s i m mediately prior to his "enlistment,
induction or call to active d u t y , "
paovided h e served d u r i n g World
W a r I I between the dates of December 7, 1941 a n d September 2,
1945, both inclusive. T h a t t h e Vete r a n s Bonus B u r e a u is entitled t o
c o n s t r u e this residence requirem e n t strictly a n d literally was r e cently decided by t h e S u p r e m e
Court in Bronx County.
I n this case, t h e veteran h a d
resided with his m o t h e r in New
Jersey when appointed to t h e U. S.
Naval Academy at Annapolis • in
J u n e 1917. He was g r a d u a t e d in
1921 a n d r e m a i n e d in t h e continuous service of t h e Navy to t h e d a t e
of his d e a t h in Nov. 1944 (during
World W a r I I ) . He h a d married
t h e petitioner (now his widow) in
1921, h a d moved to Florida a n d
t h e n c h a n g e d his residence as
o f t e n as Navy duty required. I n
May 1941, t h e veteran was assigned to a vessel t h e n on t h e Atlantic Coast. He established residence in New York City, signing a
two-year lease for a n a p a r t m e n t
in Bronx County, New York, on
M a y 28, 1941.
U n d e r t h e bonus law, t h e widow
filed a claim for $250, which was
denied on t h e ground t h a t t h e
veteran h a d not been a New York
S t a t e veteran when h e entered
service in 1917. T h a widow t h e n
sued, contending t h a t t h e veteran
h a d been a resident of New York
S t a t e for a t least six m o n t h s i m mediately prior to t h e o u t b r e a k of
World W a r I I (May 28, 1941—December 7, 1941) a n d , t h e r e f o r e ,
t h e residence r e q u i r e m e n t s h a d
been met.
Clearly Ineligible
T h e Court, however, sided with
Veterans Bonus B u r e a u which,
a f t e r several hearings, h a d ruled
t h a t t h e veteran entered active
service in 1917, I t held t h a t t h e
s t a t u t e was clear a n d u n a m b i g u ous a n d m a k e s t h e bonus payable
to " t h e veteran or his n e x t of kin
conditioned upon t h e veteran having been a resident of t h i s s t a t e
for a period of six m o n t h s imipediately preceding his call to active
duty," T h e veteran in t h i s case,
h a v i n g entered active service in

For 45 Years' Service
Comptroller L a z a r u s J o s e p h p r e sented to J a c k Buchholtz, Chief
Clerk of the Comptroller's Office,
a public service scroll for 45 years
of service. A testimonial d i n n e r
was given at the T a v e r n on t h e
Green R e s t a u r a n t in Central P a r k
by his associates.
More t h a n 500 persons, including f o r m e r Comptrollers Joseph D.
McGoldrick a n d F r a n k J. Taylor,
attended.
Congratulations f r o m Mayor William O'Dwyer were r e a d by J a m e s
A. Phillips, secretary to t h e Comptroller's Office, who presided.
T h e speakers were Comptroller
Joseph, Deputy Comptroller Lewis
P. L a n g a n d Julius Wolff, Chief
A c c o u n t a n t of the Comptroller's
Office. T h e d i n n e r was t e n d e r e d by
Mr. Buchholtz'fe associates in t h e
Comptroller's Office.
Also a t t e n d i n g were Federal
J u d g e Sidney S u g a r m a n a n d Magi s t r a t e Samuel O r r , f o r m e r h e a d s
of t h e Excise T a x B u r e a u of t h e

1917 while a resident of New J e r sey, was ineligible f o r t h e bonus.
T h e f a c t t h a t h e h a d been a resid e n t of New York S t a t e for six
m o n t h s prior to his e n t r y u p o n
World W a r n activity was not s u f ficient, even t h o u g h World W a r I I
service was necessary to q u a l i f y
f o r t h e bonus.
Accordingly, t h e widow's petition was denied. (Wiltsie v. S t a t e
of New York, 3 / 8 / 5 0 N . Y . L J p
837 col. 7).
Effect on V e t e r a n s P r e f e r e n c e
T h e decision in t h e Wiltsie Case,
if it stands, would seem applicable
to veterans p r e f e r e n c e in a p p o i n t m e n t or promotion. U n d e r t h e r e a soning in t h a t case, t h e v e t e r a n ,
even if living, would a p p e a r to be
ineligible f o r v e t e i a n s p r e f e r e n c e ,
which merely calls f o r residence In
New York S t a t e (it could be a s
little as one d a y ) a t t h e time of
e n t r a n c e i n t o the a r m e d forces of
t h e United States.
Accordingly, a veteran who-was
a New Jersey resident when h e
e n t e r e d t h e a r m e d forces in 1940,
for example, would be ineligible
for p r e f e r e n c e even if h e e s t a b lished New York S t a t e residence
d u r i n g t h e entire year of 1941 a n d
continued
in military
service
t h r o u g h 1942. H a v i n g been a New
Jersey resident upon e n t r y i n t o
military service, his acquisition of
New York S t a t e residence t h e r e a f t e r , a l t h o u g h prior to " P e a r l
H a r b o r , " would not alter t h e situation. T h e only residence t h a t n e e d
be considered is t h e residence on
e n t r y i n t o service a n d if this is n o t
New York S t a t e residence, vetera n s p r e f e r e n c e would have to be
denied.

O ' D w y e r to Assume Responsibility
For Decisions in E x a m Fraud Cases
(Continued
from Page 1)
termined by Commissioner Shiels'
report.
Mr. Hogan felt that tliere was
ground for criminal charges. The
Grand Jury indicted Heaney and
t h e two men whom he impersonated, one in 1945, when the Civil
Service Commission majority consisted of other t h a n the present
one, and again in 1948. The
1948 impersonation was caught by
John B'errone, the Commission's
fingerprint
expert.
Criminality Doubted
After Heaney had passed an
exam for promotion to Senior
Stationary Engineer in January,
1950 the Commission removed
his card from t h e roster of ellgibles because of the previous impersonations.
T h e Commission, two of whose
members are lawyers, and the
Commission's legal expert, Sidney
M. S t e m , doubted whether there
had been a criminal offense, as the
Stationary Engineer license tests
Involved in the impersonaitions
are not under civil service and
are conducted by t h e Commission
only as an accomodation to departments. Also, the Commission
doubted whether Sanitation Department disciplinary action could
be taken against Heaney, since
Inefficiency or misconduct in official duties is the basis for such
proceedings.
'An Honest Decision'
T h e two lawyers on the Commission are President McNamara
and Darwin W. Telesford. The
hearing on Heaney's disqualification case was held by Commissioner Telesford and all three Commissioners—the third being Mrs.
Esther Bromley, Republican, appointed by the late Mayor F. H.
LaGuardia—agreed on the penalty.
"Three lawyers didn't think
there was ground for criminal
prosecution." said President McNamara. "Even if we were wrong
it was an honest decision."
Asked why Heaney had been
permitted to take the promotion
test, after his impersonation had
^ e n known, he replied:
"We investigate candidates after

In the two 1945 alleged impersonations Heahey didn't get
caught, but in the 1948 one h e
did.
T h e Mayor felt that it was
foolish for the Conimission to
hold the bag in c a s ^ of fraud.
Henceforth the Mayor, i n getting
duplicate reports on any such
cases from the Commission, will
send t h e m to the Department of
Investigation and then, if anything turns up. to the District
Attorney, in his own discretion.
The Mayor made it plain that h e
would assume the responsibility.
President McNamara said that
the Commission constantly refers
cases to the Department of I n vestigation. There are some on
the fire now. Complaints such as
candidates being Reds, or alledged unfair practices in exams,
are received often by both t h e
Commission and the Mayor.
Favor to Two Friends
T h e 1945 exam that Heaney
took as an impersonator d l d n t
get the impersonated candidate
anywhere. Although
Heaney
passed the written and practical
test for him. neither awJeared at
the oral test. Heaney was fingerprinted and signed cards i n the
name of the impersonated CEUididate.
Heaney told t h e Commission
that he had never received a cent
for the impersonations but h a d
simply acted to help out two
friends.
'Somewhat Shocked'
I n his letter to t h e Mayor the
District Attorney wrote:
"Those who could speak with
authority on the subject stated
With ONE UNION, there is no reason why Sanitationmen won't win
that it was the policy of the Comthe following long overdue benefits in the budget or through legislation:
mission not to report impersonation frauds to the departments
employing the culprits or to other
official agencies. Some of the reasons advanced In justification of
this policy were that attempts to
prosecute similar offenses, some
eight or nine years ago, had been
imsuccessful; that the Civil Service Commission conducts such
license examinatlwis simply as a
courtesy to the City Departments;
that it has no real responsibility
towards other departments; and
that it performj its duty to Itsrif
when it disqualifies cheaters and
frauds from further Civil Service
advancement.
"The Grand Jury . . . feels that
this policy is ill-founded, lax and
InefHcient. It is somewhat shocked
by the proposition that t h e Civil
Service Commission, a municipal
department,
having
discovered
dishonesty and criminality on t h e
part of City employees, owes n o
duty to report such matters.

Dime Bank, Brooklyn,
Helpful to Home Owners
An average of 125 families a
month are paying off their mortgages at The Dime Savings Bank
of Brooklyn and thus are becoming owners of their homes free
and clear of debt, said George C.
Johnson, president of the 90-yearold institution. The rate of mortgage satisfaction will steadily accelerate as full Impact of the
amortization plan of payments begins to be felt during the next 10
years, he added.
A total of 1,499 families satisfied
their mortgages at The Dime last
year and these were only the first
mortgages that came under the
amortization plan inaugurated in
1936. Since then, virtually every
home mortgage issued by the bank
earries a monthly or quarterly
payment provision.

D e w e y Signs Bill
Extending N Y C
Liberal Pension
ALBANY, April 17 — Governor
Thomas E. Dewey has signed the
Conrad-Clancy bill to extend until
June 30, 1952, the opportunity of
present members of the NYC Employees Retirement System to
- c o m e under the liberalized pension
plan extended last year. The e x tension is now in efEect.
The liberalized plan enables retirement at age 55 at half pay
after 25 years, instead of after 30
years of member-service,
with
•^benefits proportional for greater or
fewer number of years of service.
The member may retire later until 70, the compulsory retirement
ftge.
Pension a n d Annuity
The liberalized law increases the
fraction to 1/100 of final average
pay, from 1/120, for the pension
part of the retirement allowance,
paid for by the City.
The final average is that of any
five consecutive years, but this in
v.practice is that of the best con' secutive five years. The other part,
the annuity, is financed by the
employee from contributions from
' ealary. As the 1/100 fraction produces quarter-pay pension in 25
years, the employee is allowed to
Increase his annuity account so
that the annuity will equal the
pension, hence half pay retirement
allowance result after 25 years of
member-service, or proportionate-

ly more for greater length of member-service. The annuity is based
on the pay over all the memberservice years, not the best five
years, which explain why "arrears" should be made up.
Question of Age
An employee now age 55 would
have to increase his annuity account by about 20 per cent, which
might equal 40 per cent of a year's
pay. If he is 53 now, the 20 per
cent increase in the account would
be spread over two years, and the
amount required would be 20 per
cent of pay for each of the two
years. The younger employee has
more actuarial years to live, hence
the rate is lower than at age 55.

public employee safety will be held
at City College from May 1 to 5,
Dr. Harry N. Wright, president of
the college announced.
Alfred R. Lateiner will serve as

cities that have instituted such
a program. Detroit is first and
