STATE A N D C O U N T Y NEWS
S t a t e Forums W i l l Explain Titles of 27 Lists
A g e - 5 5 L a w t o E m p l o y e e s Established by State
By H. J. BERNARD
ALBANY, July 24.—The State
Retirement System will bring the
new age-55 retirement law right
to the members of the System
themselves through question-andanswer forums.
The first sessions will be held
on Friday, August 4 a t 80 Centre
Street, NYC, when Deputy Comptroller H. Eliot Kaplan will discuss the new law a n d answer
questions a t 9:30 A.M. and 3:30
P.M.
State onployees will be granted
time off to attend one session, if
their request is approved by their
personnel oflBcer.
H i e meeting for employees in
t h e NYC area is expected to a t t r a c t a large number of State employees.
The sessions will be held in
Room 659.
Simlliar " f u r t h e r exposition" session will be held for employees In
t h e Albany area at a date not yet
decided, but which is expected to
be after August 4.
"The object is to reach as many
members of the System as possible," explained Deputy Comptroller Kaplan.
Prompt Action Asked
The Retirement System advises
all of its members who are t h i n k ing about switching over to the
new age-55 plan to declare their
intention at once.
Although t h e deadline for applying Is December 31 next, the
Retirement System warns t h a t
those who delay may do so to their
disadvantage,
whereas
nobody
•who declares his intention early
stands to lose anything.
The System fears t h a t there will
be thousands of applicants j a m ming its facilities toward the end
and points out t h a t those who apply now will receive prompter service. as to reports on rates, nominal
deficiencies and the like.
Arrears Bother Some
One of the points t h a t has
proved confusing to a considerable
number of members of the System
concerns those very deficiencies
or arrears. The members want to
know why a deficiency arises and
whether it constitutes some unexpected obligation on their part.
The System will devote considerable effort to clearing up all
points, including a detailed analysis of the deficiency situation.
The so-called deficiency does
not represent any debt but arises
from arrears in the annuity account compared to the employerpaid pension benefit and is therefore is a comparison and not a n
employee liability.
Why Switch Is a Gain
T h e new law gives an added
pension advantage of 16 2/3 per
cent, since It makes possible,
though doesn't assure, retirement
at age 55 at half pay after 30
years of service. Instead of at age
60 a f t e r 35 years of service, and
a t about the same pension a f t e r
the shorter period t h a t was previously granted a f t e r the longer
one. T h a t alone makes the switch
from any other plan to the new
age-55 plan advantageous to all
members.
New employees, making their
selection, should also accept the
new age-55 plan, for the sam^
reason.
The half-pay goal, for 30 years
of service, is achieved if, and only
if. the annuity account is large
enough to purchase an annuity
equal to the pension. Since the
pension, wholly paid by the employer, is based on quarter pay,
the employee, through his contributions to his annuity account,
naturally would have to make up
the other quarter to achieve half
pay. So it's a question of how
much will he, or can he, do for
himself? The employer is out of
this part of the picture.
Crnx of Deficiency
T h e pension is based on the
average of five censecutive years
of salary. Naturally the best five
years are selected, normally t h e
United Has

most recent ones, since pay rose
during those years. Multiply this
average by 1/120, the pension
fraction, and multiply by the number of years of member-service.
The result is the pension figiu-e.
The pension therefore is fixed by
law.
But the annuity is not fixed by
law. It depends on the size of the
member's own annuity account.
His rate contribution may have
been set when his salary was low,
a n d besides his salary was much
lower in the earlier years t h a n it
is now, so he has been paying a
low rate and against low pay,
whereas the pension, relatively
speaking, is based on a 1/120 rate
charged t h e employer and higher
pay. It can be seen t h a t t h e pension will outstrip the annuity
benefits, unless the employee h a s
made or will make up the difference. I t is this difference t h a t constitutes the deficiency, or arrears,
not a debt, not an obligation, and
not a charge against the employee,
but r a t h e r an opportunity, since
there is a limit to how much a n nuity a member may buy and
this extends the limit.
The only exception to t h e nonobligatory feature is t h a t , as a
minimum, a token payment of 1
per cent of salary must be made
by the member who comes under
the new plan and has arrears to
make up. Whether he actually
makes up all of them, after having
started, or does no more t h a n
contribute the 1 per cent toward
arrears, does not reduce in anyway his right to the increased
pension benefit provided by the
State or local government. The
member gets t h a t increased pension benefit just the same.
To the extent t h a t the member
fails to make up the arrears completely, assuming he has bought
no additional annuity, he fails to
achieve half pay at age 55 after
30 years of service. On the other
hand, even if arrears aie not made
up in full, the employee, if he
stays on long enough a f t e r age
55, may build up his annuity from
future pay, and thus retire a t
half pay, or even more, although
at an age higher t h a n 55.
Advisability Not Affected
The age-55 plan requires an increased contribution of about 50
per cent for the future, for those
who switch from the "normal"
age-60 t o the new age-55 plan,
and, besides the token 1 per cent
toward any arrears, but t h a t is the
extent of the requirement. Making
up arrears in full and buying additional annuity at 50 per cent of
the "normal" rate—no more, no
less—are the only other ways of
swelling the annuity. T h e whole
annuity problem is only a question of how much the member
can afford to put into his annuity
account, not whether it's advisable
to choose the benefits of the new
law.

Exam Progress
Reports Needed
HE state Civil Service Department's (iiscontinuance of
T
exam progress reports six months ago because issuance
of eligible lists three months after the tests would render
reports unnecessary has far from justified itself. Lists containing a few names frequently do come out on schedule, but
not even all of these. When lists are merely medium-sized,
and certainly when they are large, the three-month goal is
not nearly attained.
The idea that three months is soon enough to give a
candidate any inkling of exam progress is unsound in the
' first place. Candidates who pin their career hopes on the
results of exams have a deeper interest in the test's progress
than the department seems willing to admit. Also they paid
j »n application fee and may rightfully expect more service
L^an they get in a Federal test for which no fee is chaCrged.
pjftoreover, an operating department wants its employees fast
-—when it needs them.
An inspection of 20 State eligible lists, both open-competitive and promotion, published in recent consecutive issues of The LEADER, shows a total of 111 eligibles and a
mathematical total of 64.25 months between exam and issuance of the list.
Dividing the number of eligibles into the computed
time gives a reasonable figure of merit. The answer is 21/2
weeks per eligible. On this basis the average number of eligibles on a list coming out three months after the test
would be 5.
Among 20 recent State lists issued, those out in less
than four months total 14. Not one of the 14 contains more
than 20 eligibles. Another list, 21 eligibles, took 7 months.
Indeed one with 5 eligibles took 91/2 months.
The two Staff Attendant lists for the Mental Hygiene
Department were established on May 26 last. The 20 examples were charitably selected from later lists, for the two
Staff Attendant ones were published not three months but
eleven months after the exam. The total number of eligibles
on the two lists: Institutions, 1,343; schools, 229. That is
what happens when an exam of any considerable size is
held. So while the vast majority of lists may be out in three
months or less, they affect only a minority of candidates.
The State Civil Service Depai-tment was formerly the
'only one issuing progress reports. It performed the task
expertly. The information was up-to-date and confined to
progi'ess prior to completion of the eligible list. Stoppage
progress reports is considered by many a disservice to thousands of candidates each month, and represents a detour
from the democratic process of civil service administration.
The trail once blazed is now dark again.

By Dr, Frank L,
Tolman
President T h e Civil Service Employees
Association Inc. and Member of E m ployees Merit Award Board
FULL VETERAN STATUS FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYEES
IN MILITARY SERVICE
THE ASSOCIATION has been the chief champion
and defender of the war veteran on the principle that
public employees should lose nothing but should gain
much in civil service employment because of military
service to the nation. The Association was the chief
architect of the provisions in the military law which preserved all the civil service rights and privileges to public
employees in substantially all kinds of military service.
The Association was not responsible for the curtailment of the law in 1946 which limited the effect of the
law to service before the year 1947.
The Association fully endorses and applauds the
action taken by the Governor authorizing a year's leave
of absence for volunteers who serve in the armed service.
This will, we believe, mean differential pay or a guaranteed total wage equal to his regular salary, as soon as
the necessary legislation can be passed. Legislation probably will also be required to suspend or modify certain
civil service laws and rules relating to pay, leave, increments, promotions, examinations, reinstatement, etc.
It may also be necessary to redefine some outworn
terms such as "state of war" and "military service" to
include the present resistance to armed aggression in
Korea as military sei-vice, to make provisions for enforcement of the United Nations ordinances a legal obligation
of the State of New York, and to provide more definitely
for war service under the flag of the United Nations.
See Unity on
Protection
I am hopeful that the present undeclared war will
not set the world on fire but I hold that it is later than
we think where our lack of home defense and our undefined international obligations are concenied. I am sure
that nearly all the public employees in the State are ready
and anxious to contribute to the protection of their wives,
their children, their neighbors and th«ir friends whether
or not they can protect their property and their homes.
They will follow with deep interest the planning of
General Lucius D. Clay, Lawrence Wilkinson and his staff
and the various local Defense Committees. What they
want, as I see it, is what the citizen in general wants. They
want an answer to the question "What can I do about it?",
and they want more than a stereotype answer. They ask
an answer that will fit the entire present scientific and
world predicament as a perfect civil service examination
paper answers the many and different examination
questions.

A New Terror
Takes Shape
utstanding victims of the push toward internal
^'security" in the United States are the Federal employees. A ready target for unprincipled politicians, these
men and women who work for the United States have for
many years had to "take," silently, the oft-vicious barbs
hurled upon them. It is little wonder that individuals
whose talents the government needs often think many
times before they are willing to undertake the mercurial
hazards of Federal employment.
Now comes an action by Congress — fortunately not
yet completed — which would more thoroughly than ever
inflict a reign of fear, trepidation, and timidity upon the
individuals who work for the United States. The House of
Representatives has already passed, and a Senate Committee approved, a bill which would ertable the heads
of eleven departments to dismiss, summarily and bluntl#f
any employee as a "security risk." No appeal. No need
of presenting evidence. No determination by a jury of
peers. No inquiry by anyone: Is this dismissal justified?
No definition of where "healthy dissent "ends and "security
risk" begins. The bill simply gives "absolute discretion"
to the agency head to fire.
,
Fundamental Liberties at Stake
How can such a bill be looked upon but as a further
•whittling away of traditional American liberties? The
Federal loyalty program, as now set up, however open it
may be to criticism, at least permits to the accused a
series of appeals. And the validity of these appeals is
demonstrated by the cases which are reversed by higher
boards.
Senator Wayne Morse, in discussing the "absolute
discretion" measure, properly, we feel, described it as
an instrument granting "police state powers." For this
measure deprives the employee of any recourse if he is
wrongfully dismissed. What a field day it would provide
for the venting of personal animosities, for wrong-headed
whim, for "dealing with" an employee who might be
disliked or unwanted for other reasons. Why go through
the procedure of finding other reasons for dismissing an
employee — reasons wliich he could appeal — when all
you have to do is call him a "poor security risk" and out
he goes? This is too great a power to grant unrestrictedly
to any administrator.
Employees As Targets
In the United States, public employees everywhere
have fought for acceptance of orderly procedures in dismissals, protection against arbitrary action by superiors.
This fight has been made necessary simply because abuses
do exist. The American climate of opinion has, by and
large, accepted this view. The proposed Federal action
is a harsh, horrible reversal of all that has been gained.
The Korean war cannot justify this.
The writer of this editorial was recently speaking
with a long-time Federal employee, a man of brilliant
mind in the middle echelons of government. In the course
of the conversation, he made this comment: "Why should
I try to work out new ideas in my department? I'm better
off just doing my job in a routine way and not getting in
the limelight. There are too many ways and too many
people waiting to 'knock off' Federal employees these
days." Is this cynicism? Rather let it be considered a
, sombre commentary upon what is happening.
The eminent Washington Post, one of the finest newspapers in the United States, ran a full-page editorial not
long ago referring to the present situation as Terror in
Washington. Any observer can verify that this terror
exists. It does not make for courageous advance in government. It does not present a siren call for our best people
to enter government service. And today, more perhaps
than ever before, we need our best people in government.
I
A Dangerous Bill
The bill granting absolute discretion to fire an employee, and even to ruin his. subsequent life with the
charge of "poor security risk," is as dangerous a piece of
business, as unworthy a precedent, as has come out of
Washington since the war. It will only further buttress
the Terror, the emotional edginess, which is the accompaniment of existence in Federal agencies these days. The
Senate should resoundingly reject the measure. And if,
unaware of or unwilling to see the ramifications, the Senate
does permit it to pass, then it deserves the sharp veto of
the President.

Van ISame Argues for
Tax-Exempt
Pensions
ARGUMENTS
IN favor of exevipting
the pensions
of retired
government
emplojjees at least to
the same extent as Social
Security pensions are exempted
from
Federal income taxation were set
forth by Ralph L. Van Name, secretary of the NYC Employees
Retirement
System,
in a letter
to
Senator Herbert H.
Lehman.
Mr. Van Name also wrote to
Senator
Irving M. Ives,
thanking him for attempts
to
amend
the Social Security Bill, and now
the Tax Bill, to the same
end.
Mr. Van Name hoped for a *'nonpartisan
movement."
Senator
LeLhman
is a Democrat,
Senator Ives a Republican,
ccnd both
are from New
York.
Mr. Van Name's letter to Senator Lehman, a copy of which he
also sent to Senator Ives,
follows:

p r i v a t e employers, a n d t h e i r employees.
U n d e r existing law, these Social Security pensions a r e totally

As t o t h e r e a s o n s Justifying
t a x exemptions of pensions, w h e t h er in or outside Social Security,
pensioners should be given special
t a x t r e a t m e n t because o f :
Fixed income.

Employees' Desire
T h e r e c a n be n o doubt t h a t if
employees f r o m ages 20 to 65
were polled as to w h e t h e r p e r s o n al income t a x should c o n t i n u e u n til d e a t h or a t a slightly h i g h e r
r a t e until 65 ( t h e Social Security
r e t i r e m e n t a g e ) , t h e overwhelming vote would be in f a v o r of cessation of personal income t a x a t i o n
a t 65. T h e p r e s e n t plea is n o t for
complete exemption b u t f o r extension of t h e p r e s e n t $1,000 a n d
proposed $1,800 e x e m p t i o n of S o cial Security to retired governm e n t a l employees who will be only*
10 per cent to 15 per c e n t as n u m erous.
T h e requested extension will cost
little; it is e m i n e n t l y f a i r a n d j u s t ;
it will correct a t a x discrimination
of m o r e t h a n t e n years' s t a n d i n g .
Exclusion f r o m Social Security
As to reasons for exclusion of
g o v e r n m e n t a l employees f r o m Social Security coverage, n o t to be
c o n f u s e d with t h e above s u b j e c t :
W h e r e local g o v e r n m e n t s are
bound, as in New York S t a t e a n d
its subdivisions, by a Constitu-
t i o n a l provision (Art. V, Section 7 ) H
to r e g a r d m e m b e r s h i p in a gove r n m e n t a l pension f u n d or r e t i r e m e n t system as " a c o n t r a c t u a l r e lationship, t h e benefits of w h i c h
shall n o t be d i m i n i s h e d or i m p a i r e d / ' If g o v e r n m e n t a l u n i t s
e i t h e r desired or were compelled
to include Social Security coverage, t h e y could not offset a n y p a r t
of Social Security expense or b e n e fits by elimination or r e d u c t i o n of
existing local pension benefits o*:
cost.
F r o m t h e s t a n d p o i n t of o u t s t a n d i n g , relatively well-paid local g o v e r n m e n t employees, s u c h
as t e a c h e r s , policemen,

James E. Rossell, Director of the
Second Regional Office of the U. S.
Civil Service Commission, assures
full speed in completing eligible
registers now in process. He plans
to visit all defense areas in the
district t h a t have a major mission
in the present emergency.
What Regulation Provides
Section 2.114(h) of the Civil
Service Regulations provides for
emergency-indefinite appointments
as follows:
"Whenever the Conunission de-
termines t h a t it is in the interest
of national security to do so, it
may enter into a special agreement with an agency stipulating
t h a t where it is impossible to make
an appointment to a position directly connected with the foreign
assistance or defense program in
accordance with regular civil service procedures, the agency may,
with due regard to the provisions
of veteran preference make an
emergency-indefinite appointment
to the position subject to the approval of qualifications by the
Commission. Such appointments
shall not extend beyond June 30,
1952. Persons so appointed will
not thereby acquire a permanent
civil service status. Such special
agreements shall clearly specify
the conditions under which this
authority is granted."
The following are some of the
conditions of emergency-indefinite
appointments:
Persons given emergency-indefinite appointments do not serve a
probationary or trial period.
The condition "subject to Investigation" is imposed In connection with emergency-indefinite
appointments.
Persons given emergency-indefinite appointments are not thereby subject to t h e Civil Service
Retirement Act (Executive Order
No. 9945 of April 9, 1948),
Persons given emergency-indefinite appointments are in retention Group B for purposes of reduction in forcc.
They are permanent employees
within the meaning of the leave
regrulations. They are entitled to
receive periodic within-grade salary advancements and additional
within-grade salary advancements
as rewards for superior accomplishments.
They are not subject to displace;Daent under section 10.112 of the
Regulations until such time as the
Commission determines t h a t displacement will not interfere with
the national security or the foreign
assistance program.
W'hat Prospects May Be
The uncertainty of t h e situation notwithstanding, the experience of the pre-World War n
days Is »tUl sumciently fresh In

mind to allow for reasonable speculation as to the shape of the
coming expansion.
Since we will be fighting on
f r o n t s thousands of miles from
the continental limits of the
United States, the Navy will again
have to be depended upon to
carry the men and materiel for
victory. T h a t means jobs in the
Navy Yards — at Brooklyn and
elsewhere — for riggers, dockmen,
timekeepers, guards, longshoremen, checkers and the rest.
The titles of the agencies may
change from the set-up last time.
We may no longer call the boards
to be established by t h e familiar
Office of Price Administration,
War Production Board, or War
Manpower Commission. However,
price control, industrial mobilization and manpower distribution
will have to be taken care of, and
t h a t means the establishment of
agencies.
Agencies mean jobs. Disregarding names of agencies, look for jobs
in the following categories: clerks,
typists, stenographers, public relations people, economists, statisticians, investigators, inspectors,
guards, lawyers.
The Government has issued a
tentative list (details in the July
4 issue of The LEADER) of exams
to be held during "the next six

situation may bring on changes in

R e - E m p l o y m e n t Rights
O f M i itary M e n D e f i n e d
WASHINGTON, July 24 — The
U. 8. Civil Service Commission has
issued a statement clarifying the
re-employment rights of Federal
worker^ who are ordered into active duty from the reserves, or who,
as reserve ofHcers or enlisted men
volunteer, or non-members of reserves who are drafted.
"Any permanent Federal employee," said the
ConunLssion,
"whether a member of a reserve
unit or not, who i s inducted or
enlists for miltary service is e n titled to re-employment rights and
benefits for the period of his first
enlistment, or induction, not e x ceeding three years."
As to the law regarding reservists. the three-year rule applies,
but if the military service exceeds
three years, re-employment rights
exist if the employee applied for
his job back as soon thereafter as
he could obtain his release.
T h e Law About Reserves
The statement on reservists follows:
" O n J u n e 30, t h e 81st Congress
approved Public Law 599, t h e
Service Ej^tenslon Act of 1950,
which extends t h e Selective Service Act of 1948 for a jjeriod of
one year. Until J u l y 9. 1951. t h e

Mr, Noto. who lives in t h e
Bronx, joined t h e M a n h a t t a n District, t h e w a r t i m e atomic energy
project, in December of 1943. D u r ing t h e p e r f o r m a n c e of his regular duties as a n inspector of rolled
u r a n i u m rods, h e observed t h e
need f o r a better m e t h o d of h e a t ing u r a n i u m billets prior to rolling.
Although t h e development of such
a process was beyond t h e scope of
his responsibilities, h e devised a
procedure which p r e s e n t o p e r a tions indicate will result in a s a v ing of a t least $25,000 a year.

reduction In the number of provisionals.
James S. Watson, President of
t h e Commission, said that the total number of so-called provisionals, now in excess of 17,000, includes m a n y seasonal employees
a t playgrounds, swimming pools
a n d beaches. He mentioned playground directors, attendants and
others, listed in the budget as a
seasonal, yet Included i n the 17,000 provisionals.
•"niese positions are temporary,"
h e said, "while provisionals are
persons who didn't pass an e x a m
for the permanent Job they are
filling pending t h e establishment
competitive, serving i n a different
of a list."
The listing of all provisionals
will be divided into open-competitive titles, which involve the m a jority of jobs, and pnxnotion ones.
i»rovlsional promotees are perma n e n t employees in a lower title,
promoted provisionally because of
t h e absence of an eligible list, or
filling a job while its permanent
occupant is on leave.
Another grouping will show the
number of employees holding provisional jobs in excess of the
legal time limit. A cursory examination has shown that some provisionals have held their jobs for
as long as five years. Commissioner Paul P. Brennan is looking into
this phase. He said that prompt
action would be taken to get rid
of such provisionals. In the opencompetitive titles, where provisionals are most numerous, replacem e n t s should be rapid w h e n the
eligible lists come out in September
and
continiiing
regularly
thereafter. Clerk, Grade 2 and
Surface Line Operator are two
of the principal titles.
It is expected that the Commission will show, in support of the
timetable, the reduction of provisionals it expects to accomplish
at least by the end of the year,
and possibly by next spring.
The categorical listing will include a roster of those who are
filling in for persons on leave,
usually provisional replacements in
maternity and Illness cases. Such
replacements are listed as "provisional." but the employees are
competitive, serving i n a different
title, and their number will appear in the "nominal provisional"
colimin.
IT'S GOING to be hard for departments that want jobs put in
the non-competitive class. B y this
method a department can hire
about anybody it pleases and it
is often used as a means of retaining a provisional, through the
Commission's approval, and that
of the State Civil Service Commission, would be necessary. However,
the NYC Commission, consisting
of three new appointees, has decided unanimously that since the
Btate Constitution requires that
Jobs be competitive, so far as
practicable, departments seeking
t o have presently classified c o m petitive jobs converted to noncompetitive must put up a n overwhelming case, or else.
ONE OF the recent acts of the
Commission has been to erect placards, warning of the penalty for
Impersonators. Also, the general
notice of examinations includes a
detailed warning on the subject.
T h e policy of the Commission is
to be firm with impersonators,
both those who benefit by impersonation — the candidates — und
those who serve as stand-ins for
others, usually for relatives.
The impersonation warning in
the notice of examination reads
as follows:
"Impersonation: Section 24 of the
Civil Service Law provides that

is now feuding with the Board of
Elections, is urging that Commissioners of the Board of Elections
be selected from civil service lists.
PRESIDENT Watson, on the job
a month, said i n response to a
question t h a t h e liked his job
very much.
"My training in private law
practice and on t h e bench comes
in handy," he observed, "and helps
in the solution

EVERY CANDIDATE at a hearing before t h e Commission now
takes a n oath before h e gives his

W i t h no central agency responsible for t r a i n i n g employees, t h e
NYC d e p a r t m e n t s give courses or
don't, as they prefer. And when
they do, t h e courses are occasionally comprehensive and useful, but
mostly not. Employees deplore t h e
lack of a co-ordinated training program, a n d m a k e sarcastic contrasts
with w h a t t h e S t a t e is doing in
its training of new a n d long-time
employees. An outstanding example of t h e City's best training
for new e n t r a n t s , t o familiarize
themselves with t h e work of t h e
department a n d t h e job they are
to do, as well as Intermediate a n d

The Housing Pattera
A p a t t e r n h a s been set by t h e
Housing Authority which includes
orientation, or t h e instruction of
t h e newly appointed; intermediate
o n - t h e - j o b t r a i n i n g ; and, finally,
promotion training.
The
Maintenance
Training
Workshop of t h e Authority, located in Vladek Houses, h a s been
hailed as a n outstanding example.
I n addition, twice or t h r e e times
a year a n intermediate course is
given t o all who were appointed
since t h e last course, a t which
division heads lecture about t h e
work in great detail a n d a field
trip is m a d e to some Authority
housing project which is studied
from top to bottom.
At t h e workshop o n - t h e - j o b
training is conducted on a comprehensive scale. All t h e equipm e n t is present t h a t will be found
in a n a p a r t m e n t house t h a t t h e
Authority constructs. M a i n t e n a n c e
men are shown t h e complete m e t h od of w h a t to do when there's
trouble with door, refrigerator,
bathtub,
toilet-bowl,
electrical
equipment, boiler, windows and
all other appurtenances.
Better Letters One Goal
On t h e office level, stenographers a n d even their supervisors are
t a u g h t how to write better letters,
receptionists are given t h e Inside
track to rendering best service to
t h e public, a n d safety is t a u g h t
by one of t h e few men f r o m outside t h e d e p a r t m e n t who ever
stood before a lectern in t h e dep a r t m e n t ' s training school—Alfred
Latiener. who is directing t h e citywide safety training for NYC.
Promotion t r a i n i n g coiu-ses are
taken by employees either on their
own time or on a 50-50 basis, b u t
t h e indoctrination courses in City
departments generally are on t h e
employer's time.
700 Students
Promotion courses are given a t
night. I n t h e Housing Authority
they are extremely well attended,
tendance h a s been a t least good.
W h e n other City d e p a r t m e n t s
have given promotion courses a t tendance also h a s been good
a n d sometimes everybody entitled
to t a k e t h e exam a t t e n d s t h e
course.
I n t h e Housing
Authority's
orientation group—the newcon^ers
—there m a y be as m a n y as 700
students, while In other courses,
particularly where a specialty is
the subject-matter, t h e class m a y
consist of only a dozen.
T h e Authority expects to double
its staff of employees in t h e next
three or f o u r years a n d its complete training courses have t h a t
prospect in mind.
Sanitation Dept. Training
T h e S a n i t a t i o n Department's
new training center In Brooklyn
provides a t h r e e - d a y course for
recruits, in which they are shown
t h e operation of equipment they
will use, including t h e simplest
operations, like sweeping. T e a c h ing extends also to higher ranks,
when special circumstances r e quire, such as teaching public
speaking t o supervisors. While
supervisors know their jobs well,
it h a d been found t h a t they
couldn't always address public
gatherings with conviction.
T h e d e p a r t m e n t h a s recently
expanded its orientation course
for t h e
newly-appointed
and
h a s established a thorough safety
training program t h a t provides
broad coiu-ses for promotion tests,
particularly promotion t o Assista n t Foreman. Incidentally, t h e Assistant Foreman test is tentatively
in t h e Civil Service Commission's
m i n d for spring opening.
T h e Sanitation
Department's
course includes public relations,
since Sanitation Men are in cons t a n t contact with t h e public; also
it comprises full information on
employee rights a n d benefits. O p eration of motor equipment is
explained, also how to h a n d l e a
broom, a p a n scraper a n d a can
carrier. T h e students spend half
a day sweeping against traffic, so
t h e Sanitation M a n m a y see t h e
vehicles coming, for safety.
Slides a n d movies depict t h e
correct method of refuse disposal.
It's refuse, n o t garbage, in t h e
new terminology of t h e d e p a r t ment. Also t h a t cylindrical container is not a garbage can any
more but a refuse receptacle. I n
the old days t h e men were called
street cleaners and t h e d e p a r t m e n t was known as t h e D e p a r t m e n t of Street Cleaning. T h e more
dignified terminology on a large
scale stems f r o m t h a t change a n d
is t a u g h t to all newcomers.
Handling of complaints, garage
operation, courtesy, neatness of
u n i f o r m a n d other subjects are
discussed by instructors.
T h e d e p a r t m e n t feels t h a t t h e
overall results are highly satisfactory.
T h e training program Is under
Henry I4ebman, Director of Operations. Assistant Director Charles
J. Labdon is i n charge of t h e
training center.
He^dth Department
T h e Health D e p a r t m e n t h a s i n doctrination a n d o n - t h e - j o b t r a i n ing courses, particularly for p u b lic h e a l t h nurses a n d sanitary i n spectors. Rights a n d opportunities
under t h e Civil Service Law are
included among t h e subjects. Arf
a t t e m p t is m a d e to impress t h e
students t h a t t h e employees of
t h e d e p a r t m e n t are acting as a
team. T h e t r a i n i n g officer is G e r ald English. T h e personnel director of t h e d e p a r t m e n t is William
Brody.
T h e d e p a r t m e n t covers both i n troductory a n d promotion aspects
in its training.
Welfare Department
T h e Welfare D e p a r t m e n t h a s a

four weeks of intensive p r e p a r a tion for their jobs. T h e only promotion title f o r which a course is
given a t t h e I n s t i t u t e is f o r those
who aspire to become Assistant
Supervisors, t h e next higher step
in t h e promotion ladder.

Promotees United
Although t h e petitioners state
t h a t they are interested in changing t h e policy only, a n d not i n dividuals, t h e 96 eligibles recently
promoted to Lieutenant have a
keen personal interest in t h e outcome. They have united to back
up t h e Commission in its defense
of t h e suit.
T h e trial will be held p u r s u a n t
to a decision by Supreme Court
Justice J a m e s B. McNally.
T h e courts have decided t h a t

W h a t McNally Wrote
" I t is t h e contention of t h e p e t
titioners," Justice McNally wrote
in a n opinion setting f o r t h why
he ordered a trial, " t h a t t h e certiflcate in respect of t h e 96 p r o motions herein challenged doesn't
conform to said s t a n d a r d . T h e
defendants a n d intervenors (promotees) on t h e other h a n d , c o n tend otherwise. T h e r e are present
factual issues which should be
resolved only a f t e r a trial on t h e
merits. Accordingly, t h e motion
is granted to t h e extent of directing a trial to determine whether
tho disability certittcates meet tU«
requirements."
