By a u n a n i m o u s vote, t h e

t h e C h o n u n g County c h a p t e r of

following conferences with CSEA

I F A VACANCY has t o be flUed
In « competitive job and there Is
no appropriate eligible list, a persoQ may be nominated for iirovisional appointment until a list Is
established. If the nominee Is
found qualified by the proper
civil service comjnission, he becomes what Is known as a provisional. The theory Is that until
a civil service commission can
certify a regular eligible list It
cannot object to an appointing
officer's filling of the vacancy
with any qualified individual.
However, t h e Civil Service Law
places some limitation on t h e d u ration of provisional emplojnnent,
which shall not c o n t i n u e longer
t h a n six m o n t h s , nor beyond t h e
period of 20 days a f t e r t h e e s t a b lishment of a n a p p r o p r i a t e eligible

Draining Not Mandatory
Under t h e s e circumstances, the
Court declined to compel the City
to fire its provisional surface line
operators. I t felt that until a new
list was c r e a t e d no one wa^ prejudiced by the retention of the
provisionals. T h e Court was careful to point out, however, that if
t h e r e was a change in circumstances so that di'opplng the provisionals might be proper, It would
be entirely In order for a request
to t h a t effect to be presented to
t h e Court, I n o t h e r words, if a n
a p p r o p r i a t e list c a m e out a n d
t h e r e were enough eligibles willing t o accept jobs t o fill all t h e

By Dr, Frank

Tolman
President T h e Civil Service Employees
Association Inc. and Member of Employees Merit Award Board
DEMOCRACY A N D CIVIL SERVICE
MANY PUBLIC EMPLOYEES look on civil service
chiefly as a sort of closed shop for the employees. They
would like to have the door not only closed but locked against
possible competitors.
The primary function of democratic civil service is
something quite different. It is to obtain the best qualified
persons to fill the jobs that are essential to government and
consequent to the peace, prosperity and vv^elfare of the people. The first requisite of civil service is, therefore, to create and promote a merit system of public employment which
shall attract, hold and advance to higher positions the persons best qualified for the public service.
The testing of candidates in the merit system must
be by fair competition, both for original appointment and
for promotion. Formal examinations borrowed largely from
the Chinese civil service and from the schools is the generally used method of discrimination and selection among
candidates, but certainly no one can seriously contend that
our civil service examinations, as they fire now, are equal
to the task of putting the best available talent at the top
of all the hundreds of lists of eligibles.
Civil Service has been more and longer concerned with
examination than with any other element of public administration. The growth of the public'service has resulted in
making examining a wholesale public activity expanded to
a point where little creative thinking or experiment is attempted. In spite of the easy advantages of the somewhat
formal and rigid procedures still in use in examinations,
civil service will continue to fall short in its initial purpose
until the widest variety of practical tests are used with
proper discrimination as to their validity in various occupations.
Civil service should be concerned with the education
and training of every employee through his entire work life.
No change of policy, in my opinion, can compare in importance with the injection into the civil service of the idea
of continued learning and increasing skills for every employee. This means a great increase of opportunity t a advance on the basis of merit for all civil servants.
The general direction in civil service progress seems to
me to be toward creating new opportunities, more liberty,
less sterile routine and great individual initiative for the
public employees. It will be difficult to humanize and to liberalize public employment. Many of the restrictive phases
aimed at absolute security and preference in the job must
be tempered with reason and tolerance before much progress
can be made.
There is great need for the better administration of
civil service, both in the departments and in the central
agency, the Civil Service Commissions. That, however, is
another story that must come later.

and college students and last year drew about 30,000 candidates. The
series will be opened for receipt of applications in October, according
to present plans. During each of the six months some exams will
be opened.
Do Not Try to Apply Now
No applications will be issued or additional information given by
the Commission until the opening dates are specihcaliy and officially
announced. Uo not attempt to apply or to obtain f u r t h e r information
until the oix-ning has actually taken place. Watch The LEADER for

'ihe complete list was sent to personnel c'irectors by W. A. McCoy,
Chief, Examining and Placement Division. The Commi.ssion emphasized that the list is subject to change, as circumstances may
alter personnel needs.
One of the lirst tests to be actually opened will be t h a t for

At
One Year's
Probation
Held Best
A one-year probationary period
is just righf, said J a m e s E. Rossell. Director, Second Regional
Office, U. S. Civil Service Commission. He added t h a t the Federal Government had had a six
months' period, then a year, then
six months again, and was now
back to a year. There is no prospect of any change.
After a candidate pa,sses a civil
service test his name goes on a
regi.ster of eligibles.
If he is certified for appointment, he may be one of many;
not all who are certified are appointed.
When Probation Begins
Only a f t e r expressing willingness to accept a n appointment
offered and m t e r being reached
for appointment does the eligible
get the job.
As soon a^s h e starts to work
his probationary period begins.
T h a t is a trial period, really a
part of the overall exam. A written, practical or other test, or
combination of tests, may have
been given, but the testing isn't
over until the appointee gains
permanency or status. He or she
has to make good on the job to
lie retained.
"The one-year probation period
is good," Mr. Rossell said, when
a.skcd by The LEADER to comment on the best length of time.
"We found t h a t the six-months
period was too sliort."
In the Federal service the appointee can't be promoted during the first six months.
May Be Dropped
Asked whether an employee
could be dropped during the probationary period, he answered:
Yes, he may be dropped, taut not
without receiving written notice
of charges. While no formal liearing is required, the reasons for
dropping him must be sound and
supported by convincing actual
evidence."
Many of the best jobs, he
thought, require more t h a n six
months of probation, since the
employee may not have a real opportunity to prove his finer points
until a f t e r he has acquired familiarity with the job. During t h e
second half of the year's probation, Mr. Rossell felt, t h e employee gets his second wind.
State and NYC Differ
"Both the agencies and the individual employee are better oft
lor t h e year-probation period, as
both are given a better opiX)rtunity,"* he coinmented.
NYC recently reduced it,s probation period from six months to
three, while the State's probationary period is .six months, both
with some exceptions.
U. S. Secretary List
In Use, Says Rossell
Some appointments have been
made from tlie Secretary eligible
list. Grades 5 throush 7, said
James E. Rossell, Director, Second
U. S. Civil Service Region.
"However," he added, "the use
has been strictly limited and, in
our opinion, the future use will
be practically nil unless there
should be some sudden expansion
in the Government structure.
"Another use of the aforementioned register which h a s been
quite general is t h a t whicJi appointing officers make of t h e m in
connection with promotions from
within. This is brought about due
to the fact t h a t a large portion of
the eligibles are persons with competitive status already in the employment of the Government.
When it is desiied to promote one
of these eligiWes who has competitive status, no f u r t h e r examination is necessary."
United Nations Jobs for
Russian Translators
T h e United Nations wants Russian language translators. Apply
until Friday, July 14. Letters of
application should be addressed
in Russian to the Examinations

Candidates' mother tongue must

English is necessary. College education, preferably in Russia, or
an equivalent is essentia). Experience in translating, ed}t)ne,

N i n o
A p p l y N o w for
1 , 4 0 0 N Y C Social
I n v e s t i g a t o r Jobs
The period for receipt of applications for the NYC job of Social
Inve.stigator is open again.
The Civil Service Commission said that as soon as possible a f t e r
the closing, on Friday, July 21, the written test would be held and
all possible effort made to expedite the issuance of the list of those
who passed.
The Commission reopened tl>e exam because it hoped to attract
many who failed to apply during May. At t h a t time they were out
of town at college. While no college degree is required, and even
the two years of college training might be waived in favor of related Experience or other substantial equivalent, the Welfare Department likes college graduates for the job.
Fay May Rise
The present pay is $2,710 but Welfare Commissioner Raymond
M. Hilliard is trying to have this raised to $3,000. An increase like
ths^t would pi-oduce fewer declinations of job offers. In the pa.st
declinations have run high. Also, the Commission hopes t h a t t h e
new list will be fully productive, so t h a t it won't have to hold t h e
exam again for at least a year. I t is trying to reduce the recurrence
of large exams a.s much as possible.
I n May, 5,871 men and women applied. The Commission hopet
t h a t at least 3,000 more applications will be received and t h a t the
eligible list will consist of at least 4,000 names. There are more t h a n
1,000 provisionals now in the jobs in the Welfare Department, while
the new budget provides for 429 new positions in the title. Tlie two
figures may be added together to obtain approximate job prospects.
List of 4,000 Not Too Large
The eligible list will have a maximum legal life of four yeait
and in t h a t period the number of positions to be filled miglit exceed
4,000, so that an eligible list of 4,000 wouldn't be too large. However,
experience has shown t h a t exhaustion, r a t h e r t h a n expiration, kills
a list, so t h a t the pj-ospect of another such test in mucli less t h a n
four years is good.
There are some vacancies also in the Department of Health.
Apply a t the Commission's Application Bureau, 96 Duane Street*
NYC, two blocks north of City Hall, just west of Broadway, opposite
The LEADER office. The hours are 9 to 4, excepting Saturday, July 15,
9 to noon.

U. S. Eligible List
For Steno and Typist
To Be Out in Record Time
The job prospects of candidates for U. S. stenographer and typist
positions in NYC, Suffolk and Nas.sftu are improving, a LEADER
survey disclosed, p t u t i c u l a r l y because of expan.sion in the Social
Security offices and In the Wage and Hour Division of the Labor
Department.
J a m e s E. RosseJJ, Director, Second Regional Office of the U S.
Civil Service Commission, reported that 10,379 candidates applied
and t h a t the written test will end in two weeks. In some of the outlying sections, he added, it would probably end sooner.
T h e total number of appllcaUons was extremely close to h»a
original estimate ol 10,000 made two weeks before the exam opened
He assigned stall membert aecordingiy, so he was able to cope with
the exam expeditiously.
An innovation intiroduccd! was to sUut the written test before the
application period ended, to expedite Uie issuance of the list of the
ehgible liat. A problem was to avoid duplication of questions. Thin
has been accomplished, eMamjner<; reported, and it is expected that
the speed attained in bringing out the eligible list will set a local
record lor such a large exam.
