V J supervision exercised over t h e Stores Clerks by Clerks of higher grade. The entire m a t t e r of supervision is over-stressed and should be reconsidered. Most times, the duty at h a n d is carried out wholly without any supervision of a Clerk of higher grade. The Stores Clerk does not just assist in the job—he does the job! In other States (New Jersey, Connecticut, California. Minnesota, Kansas. Michigan), there is a smaller difference in salai-y between Senior Stores Clerk a n d Stores Clerk. The average of t h e differences in these States is $426, while the difference in New York State is $644. We Stores Clerks would like to ask the State Classification and Compensation Division to take into honest consideration, the points used by the Stores Clerks in their appeals; plus the facts brought at the July 29tli hearing; plus the opinions of the immediate supervisors, and if need be, to make a fit^d survey of t h e Stores Clerk position. We feel t h a t if this is done, the Stores Clerk salary grade will re-allocated to G-4.

Nov. 3—There will be a new chapter of the Civil Service Employees Association In New York City. The Board of Directors granted approval to the Employment Section of the DPUI to split away and form Its own chapter. T h e Board, acting at Its meeting on ThtJr.tday. October 30. thus gave Its decision on a matter t h a t h a s festered for a long period, h a s been before the Board since last June, and was explored by .several committees especially set u p for the purpose. The special committee report recommending approval was read by Estelle Rodgers, Its chairman. T h e new chapter announced t h a t it is immediately recruiting members within its Jurisdiction; and t h a t those seeking i n f o r m a tion could contact Alfred Reinh a r d t at the 40 East 59th Street (NYC) office. The Debate The Board's action came a f t e r strong debate between Grace Nulty, who admitted t h a t .she had spearheaded the drive for the new chapter; and Albert Corum. Joseph A. Oster. and Henry Shemin. all speaking for the NYC Chapter. Mr. Oster was proxy for Solomon Bendet. NYC chapter president, who was 111. Miss Nulty argued t h a t the NYC chapter had not grown over t h « years, t h a t it h a d not provided t h e .services needed by the member.<i in the Dlvi.slon of Placement a n d Unemployment Insurance, that membership growth In t h a t division depended upon formation of a separate chapter, t h a t a petition .showed the va.st majority of member.s on the Employment side wanted their own chapter. Mr. Shemin, Mr. Corum and Mr. Oster argued t h a t the propased chapter was really a "title" group, representative primarily of e m ployment interviewers, t h a t t h e splitting off of such groups would have weakening effects upon t h a Association, t h a t the NYC body is able to mobilize a large variety of employee talents for all kinds of projects, t h a t the DPUI h a s .segments which are unrepre.sented in the new chapter, t h a t the petition to which Miss Nulty referred was Invalid, and t h a t the splitting - i l l lead to still f u r t h e r divisions. I t was also hinted t h a t this was n o t the end of the controversy. $150 Advanced T h e Board of Directors chose^ by a substantial majority—30 to 8 —to approve the recommendation of Its committee. It approved also a motion to advance $150 to t h e new chapter when its c h a p t e r is approved. Neale: Dick Moon; Nina Perry; Arnold and P. Swain, Greenhou.se; Tony Hansen; Infirmary Building J.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1952 The New President And the Merit System s this issue of The LEADER goes to press, the nation A is preparing to ballot for a new president. The campaign has been a fierce one, encompassing many issues and pseudo-issues. One tremendous factor in the conduct and operations of government has, however, been lightly skimmed. That is the civil service. The platforms of both political parties had statements dealing with the merit system: they are "for" it. But in the talk of corruption, of malfeasance in office, of governmental operations good or ill, that thundered out of campaign headquarters, an air of unreality prevailed. And our new president, who must deal with reality, is now confronted with problems for which he together with the 83rd Congress must find successful answers. What will be done about the merit system? How will it be strengthened? What will be done to attract superior persons to Federal service and hold them there? How will government employment be plucked out of the mire of criticism that has engulfed it? Will the second-classcitizen provisions of such laws as the Hatch Act be allowed to remain on the books? What will be done about the aura of fear that hangs over many Federal employees, nevev certain when the next blow will strike down their reputations or their ability to earn a living? What defenses will be erected to protect them from whimsical charges by vicious men? The next president must think about such matters as unemployment insurance for public aides, modern labor relations machinery, promotions by merit. Security for Federal employees goes along with a deeper vista of a career service, which must be developed in the United States. Legitimate Demands Of Armory Men ew York State's armory employees perform duties N which take on growing stature in these sensitive days. The work is ditiicult, the hours often long, and the responsibilities increasingly heavy. While they are civilian workers, these men operate under the State Military Law, not the Civil Service Law. Thus, certain prerogatives for appeal and redress are unavailable to them. United, they have inched ahead in recent years, winning improvements both of pay and working conditions. But there is still much that must be done. The armory men are a tough group, and know how to put up a good fight with courage and dignity. They have not hesitated to use the legislative means available to them. Last year they failed in obtaining increases particularly needed in the classes of armorer and armory engineer. Their pay is fixed by statute. They didn't seek overwhelming amounts. When they put the bill into the Legislature this year, the amounts will again, we learn, not be heavy. The State can do no less than see to it that the men ai'en't required to put up a battle for rates of pay that should rightfully be theirs. It would be an act of wisdom if the administration would place its approval on the requests of the armory men, so that a legislative battle won't develop out of a legitimate Bet of wage and title requirements.
