Citizens Budget Comm., Powerful Civic
Croup, Joins in Support of Amendment 3
The Citizens Budget Commission urges the approval: by the
voters of Constitutional Amendment Number Three to permit increases in pension payments to
retired civil service employees.
The Commission sharply criticized the loosely-drawn wording
of the amendment, but declined to
sacrifice the pressing need for
temporary pension adjustments to
ineptitude of draftsmanship. The
Commission pointed out t h a t the
defects could be corrected by
.skillfully drawn legislation which
is needed to give the amendment
proper effect. It urged the immediate appointment of a joint legi.slative committee to write the
enabling act, and also to prepare
a further amendment to clarify
amendment number three. The
clarification could not become effective before 1954, and the Commission
held
that
pensioners
should not be forced to wait till
then for relief from the harsh
squeeze of inflation.
The full text of the Commission's conclusion follows:
Proposal
This pioposed amendment to
Art. v n . Sec. 8 of the State Constitution was offered to permit the
use of State or local funds to increase the "pensions of any member of a retirement system of the
State or of a subdivision of the
State." Its purpose is to relax the
prohibition against the use of
State or local funds as a gift to
an individual. T h a t prohibition
now prevents increasing benefits
to retired pensioners.
Need for Amendment
Retired members of various
State and local pension systems
have been, caught in the squeeze
between a fixed retirement allowance and a rising cost of living.
For many pensioners, the retirement allowances are insufficient to
cover living costs. The federal
government and many private
corporations have taken steps to
increase the pensions of retired
employees. The ""Social Security
System, membership in which is
closed to governmental employees,
has recently raised its benefits to
former privately employed wage
earners. Failure to pass this permissive amendment would make
it impossible to afford New York
State and municipal pensioners
any relief, other t h a n welfare relief, before J 954, the earliest date

(5) There is possible abuse by
legislative action on behalf of Influential
former

drawing relatively high pension
benefits. It is unlikely t h a t this
abuse could go far, especially If
relief is limited to hardship cases;:
and there is reason to believe t h a t
possible abuses could be blocked
in the courts.
Recommendation
There is reason for misgiving
about Amendment Number Three
because of its loosely-worded
phrasing. But we believe t h a t t h e
need is so pressing t h a t possible
pitfalls should be met by watchful care in drawing the implementing legislation rather t h a n by
defeating the amendment. We
therefore urge t h a t :
(1) The voters approve Amendment Three.
(2) A joint-legislative committee be designated to draw legislation to effectuate the a m e n d ment without exposing the public and retired civil servants to t h e
dangers inherent in the inept
language •f the present proposal.

to be adopted. Implementing legislation can and should be drawn
to insure proper application of the
principle of the proposal.
(3) The proposed amendment
does not affect the actuarial
soundness of the systems. Bxl.sting
requirements for reserves are not
tampered with. The implementing
legislation need not and should
not charge the teniporary increase
in pensions against actuarial r e serves. Indeed, at the present
time, pensioners from t h e actuarial systems who would be
likely objects of relief under t h e
proposal are in the minority. I t is
true t h a t an Indefinite increase in
the public's contribution could
conceivably threaten the ability
of the public to continue the increase in payments, and therefore
undermine the system. But this
should be a diminishing rather
t h a n an augmenting obligation if
the implementing legislation is
limited to hardship cases resulting
f r o m t h e Inadequate systems of
past years.
(4) The additional benefits, u n der sound implementing legislafflon, would not become an Inflexible obligation

with the
tive if this one fails.
Legal and Financial Consideration
(1) There are doubts as to the
legal effectiveness of this proposed amendment. For one thing,
it is by its terms applicable to
"members" of a system. It can be
argued t h a t after retirement an
employee is no longer a member.
Again, applicability of the amendment to localities might be coritested on the ground t h a t the
amendment appears only in the
article dealing with State finances
(Art VII). There is no corresponding change proposed in the companion article dealing with local
finances (Art. VIII).
Although the amendment is defective, nevertheless^ a poor bill
is better t h a n none, and inflationtorn pensioners cannot wait tmtil
1954.
(2) There have been scTeral
misconceptions about this proposal. It does not add anything to
the rights of pension-system members not yet retired, ^ d e r existing law their benefits can be Increased a t any time by legislative
action. The propased amendment
is not self-executing; it is dependent upon implementing legislation

LOCAL GOVERNMENT
With this issue, the CIVIL SERVICE LEADER
begins
a regular column dealing with public administration — practical day-to-day problems of local communities.
We hope to
make this column as useful as possible to State and local
public officials. Among items to be covered: New products
useful to municipal departments;
new ideas in local government; new ways of doing public jobs; local
government
needs of all kinds. The cooperation of local officials is invited. Are you using some piece of equipment
in a new,
more efficient way? Has a new program been found workable in a local agency? What are your purchasing plans for
the year? W hat problems are you up against? This column
invites communications
from local government officials, and
hopes to be a clearing house for many types of

CITY TREES MAY LOOK
TO A LONGER LIFE
City trees may soon be enjoying a healthier life. Says t h e
American Public Works Association: Growing trees successfully in
areas covered with pavement isn't done with a new wonder drug —
b u t with a new type of porous asphalt being tried out in Providence,
R. I. I t is hoped t h a t t h e new asphalt will prove a covering able to
w i t h s t a n d foot traffic and at t h e same time allow ample water to
get through to t h e roots of t h e trees.
Few cities have h a d success in planting a n d growing trees in
paved areas, because they cannot provide adequate open ground
a r o u n d the bases of t h e trees. Watering just around t h e t r u n k is not
sufficient to provide t h e necessary moisture. T h e new paving plan
m a y be t h e answer.

in the form of gains, whether in pay, working conditions
or fringe benefits. The postal workers are strongly organized. The value of stix)ng organization is apparent at
all levels of government.
While it is true that other Federal organizations
put up a strong effort to get a raise, the fact that the postal group was most effective is verified by the amount of
the raises. The postal clerks and carriers got a flat $400
and other Federal employees 10 per cent with a $300
floor and $800 ceiling. A small percentage of classified
U. S. employees, of course, get up to twice the postal raise,
but those in the pay groups under $4,000—the vast
majority—get less than the postal employees.

QUOTE INJUSTICE
Editor, The LEADER:
We, the junior statisticians employed by NYC, feel t h a t we are
the victims of a gross salary injuctice. The following are the
salaries paid to statisticians and
accountants by the City:
Statisticians: Jr. statistician,
$2,400; statistician, $3,421; Senior
Statistician, $4,020.
Accountants: Junior accountant, $2,821; Accouniant, $3,421;
senior accountant, $4,020.
You will note that junior statisticians receive $421 less t h a n the
comparable junior accountants,
while the two higher grades receive equal pay.
The educational
background,
type of exam given and duties,
are similar for statisticians and
accountants, hence the equality
in pay for the higher grades. For
some unknown reason, junior
statisticians are not receiving t h e
same pay as junior accountants.
We are now protesting to Budget Director Thomas J. Patterson,

1,217 Are Appointed Grade 2 Clerks by NYC
Sylvester Connolly, director of

to Secretary Frank A. Schaefer
t h a t 1,632 appointments have been
made from the clerk, grade 2 eligible list.
Mr. Connolly reported t h a t 1,217 were appointed at hiring pools,
where large groups of candidates
meet personnel representatives ol
many departments, all in one
room as a hiring time—saving
device.
The number of declinationa,
said Mr. Connolly, was 4,260,
which would be about 2>/2 times
the number of acceptances. Many
declinations, however, were conditional; and .such eligible-s* namM

unique idea—an employee counselling- service—noW
is available to civil servants of New York State.
Operating under the Public Employee Personnel Relations Board, the program aims to correct local grievances,
to help check irritations at the source, to aid employees
whose personal problems may be affecting their work,
to show how transfers and other amenities of public
service may be obtained, and even to assist in certain
family difficulties. Genial Janet Macfarlane, long and
favorably known to State employees, is in charge of the
program.
A public "ear" for gripes strikes us as a wonderful
thing. We hope State employees will make fullest use
of the new service.

Part-Time Job
Unit Set Up in NYC
A p a r t - t i m e job employment unit
h a s been set up In NYC. Operated
witliout cost to those seeking
spare-time work, t h e agency was
established by t h e Federation E m ployment Service, with oflBces at
67 West 47th Street. Its president Is Walter A. Miller.
Real Need
"Experience at Federation E m ployment Service h a s shown us
t h a t there are a great number of
people in need of p a r t - t i m e employment in order to maintain a
minimal s t a n d a r d of living. Most
people who come to us seeking
p a r t time employment come out
of real need and not just to earn
'pin money' to secure a few extra
luxuries."
Mr. Miller points out t h a t t h e
new service could be of value to
employers as " a n untapped reservoir of manpower." He said
t h a t t h e Federation Employment
Service was planning to launch an
Intensive drive among employers
to acquaint them with t h e availability of p a r t time workers
through his agency's facilities.
Who Is Eligible
Under this new program, Mr.
Miller said t h e agency was p r e pared to serve the following types
of p a r t time employment applications:
1. The young person who might
be forced out of high school or
college unless he can find p a r t
time work.
2. The older person whose p e n sion or other income sources Bice
inadequate for maintenance.
3. The housewife whose husband
is ill or does not earn enough to
support the family, a n d t h e wife
is able to work only p a r t time
because of children who require
care.
4. The handicapped person with
a p a r t - t i m e work tolerance.
5. Groups of persons now r e ceiving private or public financial
assistance who otherwise could
become self-supporting,
Because t h e need is videspread
in the community for p a r t time
employment, Mr. Miller said t h a t
applicants for service under this
new program will have to satisfy
the agency t h a t their needs can
only be met t h r o u g h p a r t - t i m e
employment.
Since 1934, when t h e Federation
Employment Service was founded,
it has served over 25,000 men and
women annually with vocational
guidance and full-time job placement services.

" I t doesn't mean you have to
live 20 years to reap the benefit,"
he said.
T h e representatives also discussed the possibility of improving
retirement benefits by some form
of inclusion under Social Security.
T h e number of exempt jobs in
the State came in for adverse
criticism. Speakers said t h a t the
opportunities for competitive e m ployees getting the highest-paying jobs are limited. In some i n stances where there is a wide gap
between competitive
piomotion
grades, no promotion exams are
ever held for the higher jobs,
others said.
Some titles in the State service are both in tlie competitive
class and in the exempt class,
and t h e employees work side by
side, it was said.
The State Commission was
complimented for its
current
study of the exempt jobs and hope
was expressed t h a t a remedy will
result.

number of grades to nine, f r o m
11. T h e new e n t r a n c e pay is $3,270. Annual advancement of one
grade, with accompanying raise
of $100 each time, takes place for
nine years, until $4,070 is reached.
After t h a t , three seniority Increments are granted.
Hourly employees receive 20
cents an hour increase.
Those employees who entered
t h e postal service a f t e r J u n e 30,
1945 will be raised two grades, if
they h a d not received such benefits under prior legislation. T h e y

these employees get both t h e benefit of grade advancement a n d t h e
salary increase t h a t applies to t h e
grades into which they go, a total
of about $600. T h e effect is to
