DOESN'T CITY HALL
GIVE A DAMN?
O R E and more facts are coming: in which tend to
M
strengthen the case o f N Y C employees f o r a higher
—substantially higher—cost-of-living increase than the
$250 which has been o f f e r e d by the administration.
I t is simple justice, not only to the public employees
but to the residents of the City, that the administration
Igive the most pareful attention
these facts. Tt has not
done so to date, taking r e f u g e in a cloak of silence.
Fact Number 1:
Last week, the public employees of this City had an
opportunity to see a really competent report on salaries—
a document so superior in insight to that of the M a y o r ' s
salary committee as to make the latter look like a sloppedup job. This was the Report of the Fact-Finding Committee of the Board of Education, which recommends f o r
teachers and f o r non-teaching educational positions increases of f r o m $350 to $1,025 a year, averaging $ 7 8 0 —
or 16,3 percent. T h e $250 proposal made by City H a l l f o r
other City e m p l o y e e s — a v e r a g i n g about 8 percent—looks
sick. T h e education report, prepared by a distinguished
committee under A r t h u r S. M e y e r as chairman, is filled
"with statistical and factual data which hold f o r all public
employees, not teachers alone.
Fact Number 2:
Last w e e k you saw the warning by Manhattan Borough President Bob W a g n e r that the City would f a c e a
severe shortage of competent engineers unless action is
taken soon to provide sufficient compensation to attract
young graduate engineers to the City's service. Out of 102
names of young engineers on a civil service list, not a
single one was willing to accept employment at the salary
offered.
W h a t do you think is going to cost the City m o r e —

State Commission Tests
Held in ' 5 0 Set Record
A L B A N Y , Feb. 19—The State
Civil Service Department held 1,783 exams during 1950, an increase of about 9% over 1949.
President J. Edward Conway said
that the number was the largest
in the Commission's history.
Eligible lists established totaled
1,782; number of papers rated.
42,093. At the end of 1950, work
had not been completed on 319
exams, almost all of which had
been held in the lust four months
of the year.
Bruiisfurd ICxplains
Of the exams in 1950, 1,137
were open-competitive, C4ii promotion; 701 for po.^itions in State
departments and agencies, 1,082
for local governments.
The number of applicants in
1950 was 50,402, a drop of 37%;
the candidates examined, 38,050, a
decrease of
Tliomas L. Bransford, director
of examinations, attributed the
drop to tigiitening of the labor
supply, the Commission's policy of
giving priority to State promotion
exams, and tlie absence of large
clerical exams in 1950.
Mr. Bransford reported that applicants per exam fell off for both
open-competitive and promotion
tests for all jurisdictions except
school dl&tricts. In 1950, larger
proportions of candidates failed
to Shaw up when called to exams.
Applications for the College
Sei'ies of exams for junior professional and technical positions
fell off. These were held in January for the class of June, 1950,
and in December for the class of
June, 1951. There were 6,306 applicants for the January series
but only 3.868 for the December
serieci.
Quill Faces Fight by PBA
Against Police Joining CIO
Michael J. Quill has a fight on
l^is hands in trying to bring the
members of the N Y C Police force,
"from the Commissioner down,"
into the Transport Workers U n ion, CIO. The T W U president announced last week that he was out
to organize the 18,000 and later
said tha*; ratrolmen, and many unsolicited firemen, were visiting
T W U headquarters as enthusiastic
prospects. But the line organization of the Police Department
were holding aloof. President John
E. Carton of the Patrolmen's
Benevolent Association, one of the
line groups that Mr. Quill wants
to have the T W U supersede, issued a veiled warning.

Eligibles in Driver's Seat
At Clerk Hiring Pool
Nearly 500 eager eligibles attended the Clerk, Grade 2, hiring
pool at the Municipal Civil Service
Commission, 299 Broadway, N Y C ,
with the idea of getting a, job in a
particular department. One of the
strong magnets was the transportation pass, worth about $75 a
year, which made the Board of
Transportation, with 83 vacancies,
top attraction to them. Some
talk of "tin badges" obtainable if
one worked in the Department of
Correction or the Department of
Parks produced similar results.
Some departments did promotion work to get eligibles slanted
toward the desks where their personnel representatives sat, ready
to interview prospects. One union,
Clerical
Local
1140, American
Federation of State, County and
Municipal
Employees,
AFL
of
which Herbert S. Bauch is president, distributed circulars extolling
working conditions in the Department of Sanitation. The circular
described the department as 100
per cent unionized, and urged
"Choose the Department of Sanitation as your department."
Union members cleared the corridors and sidewalk of any of their
circulars the eligibles dropped.
(Departmental neatness habit).
Prestige a Big Factor
A strong factor in deciding eligibles was the prestige'of a de-
partment or agt'ncy. For instance,
jobs in the courts tire much sought.
But there happened to be only one
court — the Magistrates Coui-t —
with present vacancies, numbering
only eight, quickly gobbled up.
Eligibles sometimes had strange
notions. They thought that jobs in
the Board of Water Supply might
mean that they'd be working side
by side with ditch diggers; in fact,
the Board has handsome offices at
120 W a l l Street, where many of
the employees are high-powered
engineers.
The largest number of vacancies,
687, was in the Department of Hospitals, while 281 jobs existed in

Debt, Gloom at All-Time High
City employees, burdened with
deficit salaries, borrowed $5,252,.
820 against their pensions during
1950, setting an all-time record
high for this type of loan and putting the employees deeper into
debt and gloom. There are no
figured available on how much
City employees are in debt to the
Municipal Credit Union, banks,
finance companies, relatives, or to
loan sharks. But private conversations indicate the number is high.
Highest Total
The figures, found on Page 1274
and 1275 of the February 16 City
Record, show that even in the
depths of the depression, during
1932 to 1935, the total loans never
exceeded $2,690,000. The 1950 total borrowed exceeded the highest
previous total of $4,648,130 in
1938 by $594,690, and the 1949 total by $612,340.
During
1950, City employees
who mortgaged their pensions—
about the only cash security they
have—totalled
21,919, or
1,603
more than those who borrowed
$4,630,480 In 1949.
Lists Being Rushed in 3 Big Exams
The N Y C Civil Service Commission has decided to establish the
Patrolman, Surface Line Operator
and Railroad Porter eligible lists
in that order, and as fast as possible. Tliese three exams are being
given priority.
The eligible.s have not been notified of their scores because the
work involved in conforming to
the Mitchell amendment has been
so great, explained Samuel H. G a l ston, director of
examinations.
That law changed the veteran
preference method to one involving
additional points to the earned
scores of veterans. It required, in
effect, that claims be cleared
through the U. S. Veterans Administration before a list could be
established.
Some Surface Line Operators
are being hired as provisionals, as
the Board of Transportation in
hard up for competent bus drivers. The selections have been made
largely from can^ildates in the
Surface Line Operator test who
passed the physical and medical
and who apparently passed the
written test. As the key answers
have been published, the candi<.
dates can estimate their scores.

are the Mahoney-Douglas

The bill pertaining to increased

Mr. McFarland, in a major address, condemned the "trial balloons" which had been printed in
certain daily newspapers about the
salary negotiations in which he
had participated.
" I hope we can give you an
answer you can accept," he said,
and lauded the " f a i r manner" in
which Budget Director T. NormarH
Hurd had handled himself during
the negotiations. The Association
president had written to all State
legislators, and told the Syracuse
audience that 70 of them had answered, giving favorable responses
to the request for pay increases.
He pointed out that there are 6,800 vacant jobs now in State service, and "if defections continue,
eight of us will do the work of 10."

of making loans will be extended
to age 65. (3) Pension credit to
employees in military service will
continue without cost to them.
(4) The privilege of contributing
an additional 50% into the retirement fund, to make the final allowance greater, will be continued.
(5) A study will be made of the
advantages of social security for
the employees of municipalities
who might be ineligible for the retirement system.

Wage Adjustment Policy for State, Local
Employees in World War II Wage Freeze
Gave Wide Leeway, Imposed Few Restrictions
Preparftd by Research Department.
The Civil Service Employees Assn.
The problems of adjusting wages
and salaries of non-Federal employees are somewhat different
from those encountered by private
employees during periods of national emergency when wage and
price controls are in effect. During
W o r l d W a r I I State and local
governments were not required to
submit proposed pay increases of
their employees to the National
W a r Labor Board, although it was
desired that they conform to the
National
wage-stabilization program.
Statement of Necessity
O n November 12, 1942, the N a tional W a r Labor Board in G e n eral Order 12 assumed jurisdiction
over wage agreements entered into
by State and municipal governments. The action of the Board
set forth procedures to be followed
by agencies of the State or its
political subdivisions which sought
to increase wages of their employees. For wage adjustments which
would not raise wages or salaries
beyond the prevailing level of compensation for similar services in
that area, the order required that
the State or local agency file a
certificate of necessity with the
W a r Labor Board. The mere statement that the adjustment was
necessary to correct inequalities
as defined by the Board was accepted as adequate evidence of
the propriety of the adjustment.
State Sovereignty
The constitutionality of General
Order 12 was not clearly established. An opinion given in December 1942 by the W a r Labor
Board stated: "There is no doctrine more firmly established in
American jurisprudence than the
one that State governments and
their
subdivisions
within
the
sphere of their own jurisdiction
are sovereign. The sovereignty
cannot be interfered with or encroached upon by the United
States Government."
No Le^al Sancfi'ons
O n January 6. 1943, General
Order 12 was revoked and in its
stead General Order 12A was issued. This stated that a review of
multitude o f ' certificates of wage
and salary adjustments received
from State and local agencies offered convincing proof that statutory budgetary control had kept
.salary and wage movements of
State and local agencies within
narrow bounds, and that the
Board had not found It necessary
to question any adjustments that
had been made. The order repealed the provision in the original
ruling that required certification
of specified types of wage adjustments and contained a request
that for all other types of wage
adjustments the concerned agency
obtain Board approval. The Board
pointed out that no legal sanctions
would be Imposed upon States and
their political subdivisions but
pointed out that Congress clearly
A L B A N Y , Feb. 19—The H a l pern-Becker bill, guaranteeing job
protection to all employees of the
State and its civil divisions who
enter the armed forces, was signed
by Governor Dewey. The bill was
drafted by The Civil Service E m ployees Association. It was the first
bill on the legislative program of
the Association to be enacted.
The bill renews provision of
Section 246 of Military L a w to extend protection given to oterans
of World W a r I I to employees entering service since World W a r II.
The original section 246 was written by the Association and the
Association took aleading part in

of public employees were engaged
in the same kind of work as private employees the duty of public
employers to conform to that policy is as plain as that of private
employers.
No Need to Refer
In M a y 1943 a new joint statement of the National W a r Labor
Board and the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue provided that
henceforth wage adjustments of
non-Federal governmental employees would neither be approved nor
disapproved by the Board or the
Commissioner. Thus State and local governments had no need to
refer wage changes of their employees to either Federal agencies

In Testing
The Rorschach ink blot test
was recently used by the New O r leans, La., Civil Service Department as an aid in hiring a warden
for the city's house of detention,
says the Public
Administration
Clearing House,
The Rorschach test is one of
several psychological tests purporting to reveal personality. A
series of ink blots is shown to a
person, whose reactions are interpreted by a psychologist.
A consulting psychologist a d ministered the test to three candidates who had qualified in the
mental ability test. Results were
not used as a weighted part of the
examination, but the evaluation of
the psychologist was made available to the appointing authority.
The Baltimore City Civil Service
Commission uses a tape recorder
in stenographic examinations. T h e
machine W M recently used in an
examination in which 250 candidates were examined in groups of
40.
The agency believes that this
device assures greater uniformity
of testing conditions.

State Pay Negotiators
Approach. Climax
T
HIS w e e k will, it is hoped, see the successful conclusion of negotiations between the State administration
and the Civil Service Employees Association f o r salary
raises. T h e figures are all in. T h e arguments have all been
made. T h e negotiations have been carried on at a highly
mature level.
A "successful conclusion" is more than an end to negotiations; such a termination is one in which the result is
accepted with satisfaction by the employees, relieves their
sense of grinding f e a r over inflation — present and to
c o m e ; and conversely, renders to the State a corps of contented, zealous employees, their minds, hearts and hands
turned t o w a r d the j o b they are p e r f o r m i n g rather than introverted upon the "difficulty of getting a l o n g " these days.
Governor D e w e y once asked, rhetorically, H o w can
you test f o r zeal in public employment?
W e l l , here is one w a y . P a y adequate salaries.
N o good administrator can afford to overlook the influence of morale in public service. A survey of the prevailing climate of employee opinion indicates that this
is now a touch-and-go f a c t o r . A poor salary result will
make it plunge unwholesomely. Dozens of employees have
told the writer of this editorial that they simply w o n ' t
" a c c e p t " ^ p a y o f f e r which they consider unsatisfactory. A
good one would bring it up to unprecedented heights.
Good morale pays off in better work. In days to c o m e —
they may be somber d a y s — m o r a l e will be a tremendous
f a c t o r . T h e negotiators should keep this ip mind.
I t seems to us, moreover, that the negotiators must
look ahead. T h e y are settling salary not f o r t o d a y alone,
but f o r months to come, months when the economic condition of public employees may again be strained. A realistic salary adjustment will consider the rising line of living costs—what it w i l l be next June and next September, as well as w h a t it is now.
W e recommend to the negotiators a study of the mature Report of the Fact-Finding Committee of the Board
of Education, City of N e w Y o r k . W h i l e this applies to
teachers, its findings nevertheless contain much that is
relevant to public employees. One of the recommendations
is f o r a pay increase averaging 16.3 percent.

I N P E A C E O R W A R . every c i t i zen owes allegiance or loyalty to
the Constitution a n d to the G o v ernment established under it. T h i s
duty of allegiance or loyalty Is
binding upon citizens without reg a r d to w i y oath of allegiance or

our country deemed the loyalty of
public officers so important to the
continued existence a n d effective
functioning of our f o r m of g o v ernment, that they provided in the
Constitution f o r a solemn oath

those w h o meet such reasonable
qualifications as the Legislature

discussed below.

and
the Education

U. S. Agencies Get Leeway
In Retaining Employees
W A S H I N G T O N , Feb.
19—The
U.S. Civil Service Commission a n nounced the latest changes to be
m a d e in its recent
regulations
which put into effect provisions of
a n Executive
order signed
by
President T r u m a n on N o v e m b e r
13, 1950. T h e order directs t h a t
promotions,
reemployments, a n d
most appointments shall be m a d e
on a n indefinite basis.
O n e change was m a d e to take
care of employees w h o are given
indefinite promotions
and
who
move f r o m an agency office in one
location to a distant office of the
same agency.
W h a t A m e n d m e n t Provides
U n d e r the regulations as originally issued, w h e n the employee
was reached f o r separation by r e duction in force in his temporary
grade, he h a d to return to the

the Legislature to prescribe r e a sonable qualifications f o r a p p o i n t ment or retention in the public
service; that the statutes do not
abridge civil liberties, which do not
extend to advocacy or incitement
of the violent overthrow of the
government, because of the p a r a mount power a n d duty of the
government to protect its o w n
existence a n d survival; t h a t the
procedures prescribed f o r listing

organizations, comply w i t h
due
process of l a w since both the o r ganization a n d the individual have
a right to judicial review of the
listing or the disqualification; and
because of such opportunity f o r
judicial review,' neither statute is
a bill of attainder, which is " a
legislative act which inflicts p u n ishment without a judicial trial."
P a s t M e m b e r s h i p Alone N o t
Necessarily a Disqualifieation
W h i l e the decision
does not
mention past membership, it is
my opinion, that under either or
both the Feinberg a n d D e v a n y
laws, past m e m b e r s h i p in a listed
organization, u n a c c o m p a n i e d
by
immoral or Illegal acts, is not
necessarily a disqualification. La^t
year, a Federal Circuit Court held
pretation would h a v e required h i m
to r e t u r n to his old position i n
W a s h i n g t o n to be considered a
p e r m a n e n t employee.
U n d e r the a m e n d e d regulations^
he can be considered p e r m a n e n t
by moving either to his last p e r m a n e n t position or to one in t h e
same grade. T h e agency is t h e r e by permitted to keep the employee
in N e w Y o r k , if it so desires, w i t h out impairing his p e r m a n e n t r e tention rights.

of the highlights of the drive by
Federal employees for a pay ii>.
crease is that their organization®
are practically united and thus
have improved the chances ot
success.
The proposal is for a 17 per cenfc
raise for all U. S. employees r e ceiving up to $5,000 a year, with
$850 for all receiving $5,000 ojr
more.
The Senate Post Office and CJlvil
Service Committee, of which S e n ator Olin D. Johnston (D.S.C.) is
chairman, will consider the bill
tomorrow. The bill now bears his
name.
Public hearings have been assvr.
ed, but the employees realize that
they have a fight on their hands.
While many members of Congress
have promised support, others
have shown a luke-warm or n e g a tive disposition. No word has yet
been received of President Tr\»»
man's stand.
Comment By Fitzgerald
Patrick J. Fitzgerald, pre.sident
of Local 10, New York Federation
of Post Office Clerks, said that his
members are waging an extensive
letter-writing
campaign,
urging
that the raise be considered on its
own merits, and not in connection
with deficits in postal operation.
"A postal deficit is no rea-'on
why employees should continue td
run their homes on a deficit," he
said. "Employees should be paid
what they're worth, as the A m e r i can public demands."

Ticket-Selling Ban
Crimps Employees
A variety of methods are used
by N Y C departments to carry out
Mayor Vincent R. Impellitteri's
order banning the sale of tickets
by employee organlz;ations.
The
Sanitation
Department's
written order is detailed and extreme; the Fire Department printed a simple declaration of policy
in a Special Order. In the Police
Department no general written order has been issued, but the Instructions were given orally to the
heads of line organizations.
Raffles Too
AH departments now require a
written request for permission to
hold an aflair and sell tickets for
it. An " a f f a i r " is not only an entertainment and dance, but includes rafiQes. Many employee organizations depended on the income from such events and find
themselves financially crippled.
Ticket Invoices in Triplicate
The Sanitation Department order, issued by Commissioner A n drew W . Mulram, prohibits gatherings and affairs of any nature
for which an admission is charged
and tickets sold other than at the
box office, including "drawings or
other distribution of prizes" unless
permission is obtained in writing.
W h o Printed H?
The Commissioner requires the
application to state the number of
tickets to be printed, the name and
address of the printer or printers
of the tickets or other printed matter, and the name, address and
title of every employee concerned
in committee work, distribution
of tickets and receipt of proceeds.
Detailed invoices of printing
bills in triplicate must be submitted to the Commissioner in
advance of any ticket distribution,
and tickets may be distributed
only by mail to members, or at a
meeting of the association.
Tickets, placards and other ad^vertising
matter
may not
be
printed until the Commissioner
lias seen and O K ' d the proof.
Sworn Statement Required
Affidavits are required, stating
that there has been no other
printing of tickets than that
sliown on the invoices.
Welfare Employees Lead
As Blood Donors
A thousand members of the
NYC
Department
of
Welfare
have responded to the appeals of
wounded American veterans of
the Korean W a r for more blood
donors. Commissioner Raymond
M, Hilliard announced. Applications poured in after employee
groups throughout the department listened to talks by Korean
veterans.
"This contribution will bring the
Department of Welfare total up to
l,3O0 pints, the highest of any
City Department," said the Commissioner.
Three trips by the American
Red Cross Bloodmobile are required. On Wednesday, the Bloodmobile visited the Melrose W e l fare Center, Bronx; on Friday a
blood collection was made at the
department's Central Ofllce, 250
Church Street, Manhattan.
No sale may be made on department property during or after
working hours by either buyer or
seller.
Affidavits also are required, after
the affair is held, as to the number of tickets sold and amount of
money received and spent.
Failure to comply with the new
rules and regulations will result
in departmental discipline, the
Commissioner warned.
The policy is stated in General
Order 40, of 1951, which supersedes G.O. 97 of 1948.
Fire Department Order
The Fire Department's brief
notice, issued by Commissioner
George P. Monaghan and published in Special Order 6, follows:
"Members of the Fire Department shall not sell or distribute
tickets of any kind, nor shall they
sell or solicit advertisements of
any kind, without the written approval of the Fire Commissioner.
" N o application for such approval will be considered unless it
is specifically stipulated therein
that the tickets and advertisements
will be sold only to members of the
Department and their families.
" N o tickets for such affairs shall
be sold or distributed, or advertisements sold or solicited, for such
affairs until the written approval
of the Fire Commissioner is promulgated in the Special Orders of
the Department.
"This rule shall be strictly e n forced."
Practice in Police Departmeni
Police Commissioner Thomas F.
Murphy, in approving an application, publishes the announcement in the departmental orders,
which makes it effective. Permission is granted to organizations to
display placards in the sitting
rooms of station houses and in departmental offices. The sale of
tickets to businessmen, storekeepers and the general public is
"strictly prohibited" in each announcement, as is the solicitation
or publication of paid advertising
in journals or booster lists.
It has already been said that
the ticket order could severely
hamper or even ruin, the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association.

On Study Leave
Under G. /. Bill
Lawrence J. Redmond, who became a N Y C fireman in 1947 and
was granted leave to study under
the G I bill, is trying to get admitted to the Fire Lieutenant promotion test, although
he hasn't
attained first grade fireman status.
The exam was open only to those
who were in the first grade.
The Commission declined to admit him. The Fire Department
agrees that the Commission was
right.
The Commission has referred
the question to Corporation Counsel John P. McGrath, who is expected to render an opinion next
month. The Commission stated
that the matter has far-reaching
implications.
The Fire Department, in announcing return to duty from educational leave, formally states in
each case:
"The leave of absence does not
accumulate service credit for the
purpose of promotion or for the
purpose of advancement in grade.
Therefore the period of absence
. . . is not to be credited for departmental service."

Fire Commissioner lyionagiian
Is learning tlie Ropes'
GEORGE PATRICK
MONAGH A N is a chunky, earthy, easytalking,
cigar-smoking,
smiling
; Irishman who is cautiously feeling
'his way while learning the ropes
;as N Y C Fire Commissioner.
I
He admits frankly that there's
.much he doesn't know, that he's
still fazed by such things as the
j complicated working schedules, for
example. But he's sweating it out,
learning the hard way (there isn't
any easy way). He's been to twelve
fires already, and expresses unbounded respect for the kind of
tasks his men perform and the efficiency with which they operate.
He has learned that putting out a
fire Is a lot more than squirting
water ai a flame and chopping a
partition with an axe.
Fire Commissioner George P. Mtmaglian poses for photograpiier in
kis office a t Fire Department lieadquarters, but rarely lias time to take
his ease, os he seems to be doing here, what with Department
morale at an all-time low. The new Commissioner is still busy "learning
the ropes" of his exacting jobt.

Vef Preference Claim
Procedure Explained
The
Civil Service
Technical
Guild, CIO. queried the N Y C Civil
Service Commission about veteran
preference claims procedure. In
reply, the Commission advised the
Guild that a veteran should fill
out the forms to claim preference
on any list they're on. He may
withdraw the claim any time up to
appointment or promotion. H o w ever, if he waives preference for
any one test, he may not again
claim it for that list.

Puts in a Long Day
A stream of visitors comes into
his office daily — employee representatives,
citizens
with
complaints, firemen, and officers, official
bigwigs, Monaghan sees them all,
within the limits of the long day
he puts in. He rarely leaves the o f fice before 7 o'clock.
He's anxious to have under him
a department of men who do an
outstanding job, whose morale is
high, who are satisfied with their
working conditions. But he's not
telling them that. "I'd rather they
get to know me and how I think
than that I should make statements about it," he says. Right
now, with the Investigations, the
unsatisfied salary aspirations of
the men, and the feeling that nobody knows what's going to h a p pen next, morale is at an all-time
low.
Is He Tough?
Is he tough?
That's the talk
around the department, following
his action in ordering that men
must appear at Headquarters in
uniform, abolishing the sale of
tickets without special permission,
and clamping down on leaders of
employee organizations. But M o n aghan himself is surprised if he's
considered "tough." He wants the
men to like him. As for uniforms,
he says: "It's an old rule, and
we're just returning to a policy
which prevailed for years for the
good of the department. Moreover,
this is a semi-military organization; and the men should act and
look like firemen. I don't give a
damn personally; I'd just as well
talk to a man in his underwear."
The fact is that there's a very
divided opinion in the department
about the new Commissioner.

line cases during the past ten years
were handled by him. In 1947, he
sent to jail a notorious gang of
football fixers. He convicted a man
who was called the "biggest receiver" of stolen goods since the
turn of the century. He convicted
one robber so bold as to conduct
a jewelry holdup in the lobby of
the Waldorf-Astoria at 10 in the
morning.
Headed His Political Club
While not too active politically,
Monaghan has been president of
his Tammany Club In the W a s h ington Heights district, and is a
long-time friend of Prank S a m p son, Impellitteri's patronage-dispenser. Some of Monaghan's a n tagonists in the departmerrt say
he still takes orders too frequently
from Sampson. Monaghan himself
sighingly admits that, as a political leader, " I was a disappointment. I never had time to go to
meetings." Time is a precious
thing to the new commissioner,
with four children whose ages are
2, 4, 6 and 8.

Medical Employees
To Submit Wage Plan
Music Conservatory
Students Play in Bands •
The New York University-Bellevue Medical Center Employees,
Local 1133 of the American Federation of State, County
and
Municipal Employees, AFL, is preparing terms of a propo.sed contract to be submitted to the N Y C
administration.
The union said:
"For a 44-hour week, collegetrained
laboratory
technicians
earn as little as $135 a month.
For the same number of hours,
maids make $115, nurses' aides
$120. Kitchen workers take home
$88. The nurses and social workers total $200 and $225 a month,
respectively. It Is difficult to believe, with the ever-rising cost of
living, that hospital workers have
been asked to remain satisfied
with pre-war salaiies."
The Music Centre Conservatory
faculty includes 26 teachers who
have played with such name bands
as Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller
and Jimmy Dorsey. Students, including veterans on the G. I. Bill
who attend full time at the Music
Centre, in one day study theory
and arranging and spend .several
practical practice periods in various bands. The students' private
instrumental lessons are checked
periodically through the personal
recordings made in school.
The students get quite a kick
out of rehearsing with name bands
and hearing their personal recordings played back.
The conservatory is at 1924
Washington Avenue, corner T r e mont Avenue, Bronx.

T h e eligibles came upon a monitor as soon as they entered, who
asked if they had any particular
department they preferred. They'd
been handed mimeograplied sheets,
listing the departments and n u m ber of vacancies in each, and also
giving them additional information
and instructions.
Half of them had their minds
made up. but it wasn't always
easy to get into the department of
one's lirst choice, or even second
choice. T h e jobs in the most popular departments went fast. A disappointed eligible, seeing some one
seated at the desk with the rei>resentative of the department of
second choice, spoke to the personnel man of a third department.
Meanwhile tlie second choice job
would be filled. Thus many eligibles took what jobs they could get,
but preferred ones nearest home.

were abolished a few years ago.
Now that veteran preference a f fords point credits in exams,
there's no chance of revival of
credits for military

The rea.son given is that it would
constitute double preference on
points.
There's another side to departmental
award
credits:

would be inflicted on those disciplined by the department.

Commission went along with the

A N E W date has been set for the I
written test for promotion to Lieutenant, Fire Department. It is S a t urday, June 9, Samuel H. Galston,
director
of
examinations,
announced. The date is only two
days later than the one tentatively selected.
There are 5,828 candidates.
Holding the Fire
Lieutenant
promotion examination in the fall
would permit more firemen, pilots
and marine engineers, and engineei-s of
steamer,
to compete,
since the six months' of required
service would be completed by
more firemen.
" I n promotion tests," explained
S a m Galston, "the reference point
is always the date of the first
assembled test. This is usually the
written test, though in some i n stances there is no written test,
only a performance test."
T h e proposed scale of weights
for departmental awards follows
(applicable to one successful test
only):
Roll of Merit, Class 1 with
medal. 3 per cent; Roll of Merit,
Class 2 with meda, 2.5 per cent;
Roll of Merit, Class 2, 2 per cent;
Roll of Merit, Class 3, 1 per cent;
Service Record A, 5 per cent;
Service Record B, .25 per cent.
Award credits will be recognized.

others. There were also some solicitous fathers, mindful of their
daughters'
welfare,
although
there's nothing inherently dangerous about a girl attending a pool
in the Commission's large examination room. One fellow showed
up with the explanation that he
had a date with a girl eligible. He
found her after she'd signed up
for a job, they went out to lunch
to celebrate.
instructions to Eligibles
The mimeographed
sheet
the
Commission furnished warned all
eligibles that the certificate of the
appointing officer or a declination
notice obtained from a Commission
representative must be handed in,
as either paper proved one's presence. Otherwise an eligible would
be marked absent and his name
removed from the list.
The instructions included the
following:
"1. No pei-son will be permitted
to decline apointment in order to
wait for possible future apointment to a particular department.
"2. Declination on account of
salary will remove your name from
the list for that salary.
"3. Declination, on account of
tenrporary inability to be acceptable, must set forth the reason for
such declination.
"4. No person may decline on
account of location not being in
the borough in which he resides."
All told. 1,200 were called for
the two days, nearly 1,000 showed
up, and about 600 jobs were filled
at 12,110.
T H E American Federation of
State, County and Municipal E m ployees, A F L , through its general
representative, Jerry W u r f , attacked the $250 increase as inadequate and loaded with misrepresentation.
Mr. W u r f , who has called fo:
an increase of least $500 stated
that $250 would be of negligible
benefit to civil servants and would
bring on inequitable taxes,
" U n d e r the present plan," e x plained M r . W u r f , "the public will
be faced with a series of nuisance
taxes, and civil servants, by implication, will be labeled the goats
responsible for the taxes.
" T h e remedy lies in a substantial
increase to City employees, to be
paid from existing funds. Tiie p u b lic lias been misled into believing
that no such funds are available,
and that increases must be met
by additional taxes. At least $25,000,000 in accruals now lie dormant in the budget.
" T h e Budget Director has u n derestimated the City income and
overestimated administrative expenses.
" A n y money spent from the b u d get for wage increases for city
employees, will pay dividends to
the city in increased, more efficient and consequently less expensive service."
Welfare Employee
Reinstated by Court
Marguerite Smith was reinstated
as Social Worker in the W e l f a r e
Department.
O n M a y 12, 1949, Miss Smith
was put on a compulsory leave
basis because of refusal to submit
to a medical examination. She
was continued on a leave of a b sence status with pay until January 1 last, when her leave was
continued, but without pay.
In
April,
1950 Miss
Smith,
through her attorney, Samuel Resnicofl, sued to annul the leave
status to obtain
reinstatement.
Supreme Court Justice Hammer
dismissed the petition.
The Appellate Division reversed
the decision and directed Miss
Smith's reinstatement.
Fact Number 4:
Y o u ' v e been reading about price controls. T h e bigstory last week was that the staples of l i v i n g — m i l k , meat,
e g g s — a r e decontrolled. T h e Bureau of L a b o r Statistics
cost-of-living index is rising to 180. In N e w Y o r k City it always costs more to live than a n y w h e r e else. A n d then
there are the coming new taxes and rent rises.
Fact Number 5 :
L a b o r members of the W a g e Stabilization Board in
Washington last w e e k proposed a " c a t c h - u p " f o r m u l a
which would permit pay increases of 12 percent to cover
the rise in living costs f r o m M a y 24 to D e c e m b e r 15, 1950,
with cost-of-living adjustments monthly t h e r e a f t e r ; and
then w a l k e d out when the other Board members would
vote only 10 percent f o r this period. N e w Y o r k City employees got their last raise in July, 1948. N o w t h e y ' r e o f f e r e d $250, to cover the w h o l e period of inflation that's
come between then and now.
Fact Number 6 :
T h e city b i g w i g s sent Corporation Counsel John P .
M c G r a t h to A l b a n y , at a public hearing on the budget,
to ask more State aid. McGrath is a decent, competent
public official, but the A l b a n y boys pinned his ears back
with a snear about inefficient City operations. Sure the
City ought to get more State aid. But w h y didn't they
work it out in advance with the state administration? A n d
if that wasn't possible, w h y didn't Impellitteri and the
whole Board of Estimate g o up there to dramatize t h e ,
issue? W h y did they send M c C r a t h ? P l e a d i n g on budg e t a r y mutters isn't his j o b .
Did they really mean it, or was it just f o r headlines
that they asked f o r State aid ? A n d not getting more State
aid doesn't take them off the hook, so f a r as adequate p a y
raises are concerned.
H o w in Heaven's name do they expect City emp l o y e e s — t h e N e w P o o r — t o w o r k iit their best, to w o r k
and w o r r y about their f a m i l i e s and h o w to pay their
grocery bills?
H o w in Heaven's name do they maintain the cool
nerve to sit by and say nothing, w h i l e City employees
reach a point of real suffering, w h i l e City services deteriorate, while the situation builds up to an explosive
climax ?
Doesn't City H a l l give a damn?
