Pay, Politics
And Public
ivil service is indivisible. Like waves of the sea, what
happens in one place rolls outward and affects, in
ways large or small, what happens elsewhere. There are
about 650,000 public employees—local, State, and Fedtral—within New York State. These 650,000 are followiniT the present salary situation of State workers with
unique intentness. They are aware of the things that are
happening—the impasse in negotiations; the production
#f a report by the State which is being kept secret and
whose statistics are favorable to the employees; the Governor's message that, while offering a conversion of emergency bonuses into base pay, yet skirted the core issue
•f salary increases; the facts and figures that show conclusively how State workers have fallen behind their
fallows in private industry.
Some 650,000 public workers are watching all thij^
watching it with a combination of hope and apprehension. Should the salary negotiations result in comparatire success, the hopes will be justified; should negotiations result in failure, their apprehension is bound to make
toelf felt. For these employees are not inert, downtrodden peasants; they are politically alert, in contact
with the currents of the day, and in exceedingly close
•Otttact with the people of their communities.
C
T h e y H a v e A Stake
All these employees—all of them taxpayers—feel they
have a stake in the State salary picture. Their support
foea strongly to the beleagured State workers. They
know that if the State employees continue to drag up
the rear in the salary picture, all public employees will
•uffer thereby. They know that wage deterioration at
the State level means diminishing recruitment of competent personnel, high staff turnover, and job dissatisfaction and reduced work quality. If State workers fail in
getting an adequate pay raise, the chances of all public
workers are jeopardized.
The Administration and the Legislature have a reiponsibility to the people; and that responsibility extends
to the civil scrvice employees, who do the people's work.
These employees, as is now well known, received no pay
increase last year, even though living costs continued to
•oar, and employees in private industry outstripped th^m
again and again. A secret survey by the State as of last
y€ar indicated that the employees had fallen behind 6.7
per cent. It wasn't a political year, and the Administration resisted doing anything. This year, another survey
was conducted; it shows, in cross-section, that the State's
workers are now behind by about 10.5 per cent .
Docs anyone think that this key fact will remain dormant; that the public will be unaware of it; or, having
been apprised of it, will shrug its shoulders in ennui over
th« lack of fairness in a picayune pay raise? Hardly.
Failure of the Administration and the employees to agree
amicably upon a formula satisfactory to both would, inevitably, leave a residue having long-term effects.
In his special message to the Legislature on February
jit, tiie Governor said:
'Un 1942, the starting salary in State employ was
a disgraceful $900 a year—today it is $2,180.
In 1943, the average salary paid State employees
was less than $1,800—today it is $3,698 . .
Six paragraphs below that quotation is another inter••ting one:
''Through a system of supplemental allowances,
wo eased the economic plight of low-income retired employees whose retirement dollars had
been halved by the impact of inflation- . .
W h a t D o e s the Public .Think 7
Now if the dollar of the retired employee has been
halved by inflation, so has the dollar of the person now
•mployed. And that would mean that the $3,698 which
tb« Governor cites as the ^'averagey salary today isn't
worth much more than half that in ifeal dollars.
What of public reaction?

State W a g e Negotiations
Fluid; C S E A Calls Special
Meeting of Its Directors
ALBANY, Feb. 15 — T h e New
York State salawy-increase situation. as it now stands, is still in
status quo,
1. There ia as yet no specific
salary offer ready for presentation to t h e employee representatives. I n negotiatiorxa, t h e Civil
Service
Employeeg
Association
has not moved f r o m its 12 per
cent pay increase bid. The Administration desires to introduce
a new wage structure. T h e Governor has already come forward
in favor of covering t h e emergency bonus in as p a r t of base pay.
He h a s said t h a t a d j u s t m e n t s in
pay will be nwessary. T h e State
has conducted a survey whose results show t h e need of upward
pay adjustments. But a meeting
between representatives of t h e
Administration and of the Civil
Service Employees Association held
on Monday, February 8, was indeterminate in results.
Specific Proposal Due
2. Another meeting between the
negotiators has been set for Tuesday, February 16. And John F.
Powers, president of the e m ployee organization, has called a
special meeting of the Board of
Directors for Thursday, February
18. There was some evidence t h a t
a specific proposal would be available for presentation to the Board
on t h a t date.
3. The Association presented a
strong statement to members of
the Senate Finance Committee
and members of the Assembly
Ways and Means Committee.
4. Employees around the S t a t e
have acted to win strong support
among legislators and local cotuoiuoiijr leadeiv. There
uibtiUu^
tial evidence t h a t they h a v t won
such support.
Mr. Powers' statement to m e m bers of t h e two legislative committees follows:
"We appear here today on behalf of all S t a t e civil service employees, of whom approximately
58,000 are members of The Civil
Service Employees
Association.
We are here to protest with all t h e
vigor a n d intensity at our comm a n d the failure of the 1954 budget to contain a single penny for
the upward a d j u s t m e n t of State
employees' salaries.
" I n October 1953 the delegates
of this Association, assembled at
their a n n u a l meeting, adopted a
resolution calling for an average
salary a d j u s t m e n t of a t least 12%
a n d for t h e correction of inequities t h a t may be f o u n d in the exLsting salary plan. This resolution
was adopted a f t e r thorough consideration and year-long study by
the technical committees of the
Association. I t was not a figure
pulled out of t h i n air, but was
amply Justified by all of the
studies which t h e
Association
has done, and by all reliable Indices of public and private salaries.
State Found IQi.^ %
• "We do not ask you to accept
the 12% figure based on our own
studies a n d research alone. The
S t a t e Administration itself has
found t h a t State salaries are at
least 10V2% behind outside salaries. On Monday, J a n u a r y 11,
1954, t h e Knickerbocker News
carried a n article discussing the
results of t h e State's comparison
of hiring rates in private industry with S t a t e salaries. T h e article
quoted a report i-eleased by t h e
S U U to firoM whkta p«rUcip«ied
in the State's surv^r hi part M
follows:
'During t h e period from October 1951 to October 1953, h i r i n c
rates of t h e companies participating in t h e study have showiL
for these titles, a n Increase off
about 10V3% — almost identical
to the r a t e of increase shown bf
the composite index of wages a n d
salaries in t h e United States M
published by t h e Federal Resenre
Bank ol New York. The Utles r e ferred to above are typical —«
clerk, typist, stenographer, c a ^
penter, electrician, t r u c k drives^
cleaner a n d elevator operator.
" T h e last a d j u s t m e n t
girm
State employees was based on t h e
figures available on Octobcr
1951. Thus, t h e inescapable coivclusion f r o i a t h e State's own figures Is t h a t an average increase
of at least 10!4% te presenter
jtistified,
Freeae-in Not Enough
" J u s t last week the Governor
submitted
to your
honorable
bodies a special message in whlcii
he recommended a freexe-ln of
the present emergency compensation and referred to the necessity
for 'correction of inequities withla
the State salary plan and the possible necessity for other a d j u s t
ments.' The freeze-in of e m e r t ency compensation,
welcome
though It may be, does not coal
the S t a t e one cent nor add %
single cent to S t a t e employeei^
salaries. The correction of Inequities and upward a d j u s t m e o t
of salaries should be m a j o r b u d getary considerations. I n spite of
all these facts, the ultimate f a d
remains — there is no appropriation In this year's budget foe
either of these factors vital l a

says:
T h a t under existing law, e m ployees of t h e State Employment
Division are subject to frequent
lay-offs because of fluctuations in
work loads, but m a n y can't qualify for benefits because of the oneyear rule. In the course of t h e
calendar year, 1952, the division
laid off 1.523 employees. Some of
these had been hired for a few
weeks only; others h a d been with
the division for years.

ALBANY, Feb. 15—"Let me assure you t h a t I have no intention
of making any changes in policy
or organization in the immediate
future."
T h a t was the message given
employees of the S t a t e Civil Service D e p a r t m e n t by Oscar M. T a y lor, the New York Telephone Company executive who was selected
by Governor Dewey as his new
Civil Service administrator.
Mr. Taylor, who took over the
post of president of the Civil Service Commission F e b r u a r y 1, told
The L E A D E R in an exclusive interview :
"^"I am impressed by t h e knowledge of the people in this department. I have asked them to carry
on as usual, while I have an opportunity to study the department, its organization and functions."
Stud/lng His J o b
Mr. Taylor said he had spent
his f i r s t week in office studying
the department, meeting its employees and "just getting acquainted" with his new job.
"Now, I know how a new employee feels in starting work," he
said.
Asked if he had found any
marked differences between private industry a n d how a S t a t e department operates, Mr. Taylor re^
plied: "No, I find the people
aren't any different a t all> They
have the same desires, the same
ambitions and the same willingness to work."
He added tliat if there is a difference between private industry
and government, it probably is
the f a c t t h a t some things are dictated by law for a governmental
agency.

Mr. Taylor, who succeeded J .
Bklward Conway in the Job, met

Hudson Training
School
SUPERINTENDENT
Abraham
Novick returned recently from
two week's study of the Pennsylt a n i a Training School for Boys
and Girls at Canonsburg, Pa.,
and will recommend changes in
4Bie school's relationship with the
community
and
the
juvenile
court system of the State, as part
of the study. Mr. Novick reviewed
the school's program, organization and functioning, at the invitation of the school's board of
trustees and the Pennsylvania
State Department of Social Welfare.
"New York State is f a r in advance of most areas of the country, in adequate training and rehabilitation programs for juvenile
delinquents," Mr. Novick said.
"New York State's
personnel
standards and classification system make it possible to secure
employees of the calibre to meet
problems of delinquents," he added.
Through the cooperation of the
Adult Education
Program
of
Hudson, the following courses are
being offered at the Training
School for Girls, for the benefit
of employees as well as the general public: shorthand, typing,
foods and nutrition, and Spanish.
The staff gave a dinner in
honor of Mrs. Blanche Holte McDonald, director of education,

Facts You Should Know
About Your Mental State
Note this startling fact — one in ten persons in
New York State at one time or another becomes
mentally ill. Obviously, the conditions in New York
State's Mental. Hygiene Hospitals and Schools
vitally concern you.
But the record is not altogether grim. The mental
hygiene employees in the State service have
achieved a surprisingly high percentage of successful rehabilitation.
The word "surprisingly" is used deliberately. These
mental hygiene workers are overworked and underpaid. Institutions must be manned every hour of
the year. Most employees have to work at least
48 hours a week because it is impossible under
present wage scales to get sufficiently trained and
adequate personnel.
Mental hygiene employees are the poorest paid in
State service. Over 13,000 are employed at an
entrance pay based on a $35 per week level. In
addition, daily contact with patients and inmates,
generally in crowded quarters, puts these employees under constant threat of diseKise and injury.
Naturally, these conditions affect the sympathetic
and expert care institution workers want to give
the patients dependent on them — and often cannot
because mental hygiene workers are so overworked.
Remember the one in ten — and remember that
failure to give proper care to mental patients can
cause serious problems in your community — even
in your own family.
Protect the health, help the recovery of mental
patients...

twelve months there will be over 29,320 appointments to U. S.
Government jobs in this area. *
These will be jobs paying as high as $316.00 a month
to start. They are better paid t h a n the same kinds of jobs
in private industry. They offer far more security t h a n private
employment. Many of these jobs require little or no experience
or specialized education.
BUT in order to get one of these jobs, you must pass a
Civil Service test. The competition in these tests is intense.
In some ca^es as few as one out of five applicants pass!
Anything you can do to increase your chances of passing is
well worth your while.
Franklin Institute is a privately owned firm which helps
thousands pass these tests each year. The Institute is tHe
largest and oldest organization of this kind and it is not
connected with the Government.

Mental Hygiene Employees
The NYC Police Department Is
organized on the basis of regular
supervisory functions exercised
principally by the precinct command within its own borders. The
captain supervises
lieutenants,
lieutenants supervise sergeants,
and sergeants supervise patrolmen. Also, some lieutenants from
district and borough offices have
supervisory responsibilities, too.
They, like the others, always wear
their uniform while at work. T h a t
was the only methbd In existence
until the shoo-fly system was
superimposed on It.
Under the shoo-fly system. Independent squads, operating directly from Police Headquarters,
cover the entire City, but do not
wear uniforms. Patrolmen point
out t h a t two of the necessary elements to constitute one a spy are
operation by stealth and being in
disguise. They consider t h a t when
operating against their fellowpolicemen, and not wearing uniforms, the shoo-fly squad members are In disguise. The stealth
Is shown by the fact the shoo-fly
operators show u p unexpectedly at
any place, any time.
For performing shoo-fly duties
the lieutenants are reported to receive the pay of an acting captain. or about $40 a month more.
While policemen recognize that
anybody who Is obeying orders Is
himself not personally responsible,
they have been told t h a t the shoofly operatives are volunteers, lust
as all spies are volunteers. T h a t
belief, plus the additional money,
makes the shoo-fly doubly hateful to the policeman.
sist of captains and acting captains operating from Police Headquarters, and covering the whole
city, as distinguished from the
precinct supervision by preolnct
officers and sergeants, all in uniform'. and the supervising squads
operating
from district
and
borough headquarters, also all in
uniform. The combination of discarding uniform and working
directly out of Headquarters constitutes a revival of the shoo-fly
system, the PBA says.
The Commissioner in his statement says he is always glad to
disciLss departmental matters with
delegates of police organizations,
and department members. Mr.
Carton has been In to see him
several times, though his visits
proved unproductive.
Police Report on Fellow-Police
An order to detectives to report
the Identity of the least efficient
member of any squad they command, and, if there are more t h a n
20 members in It, report a minimum of two least efficient, was
another subject of protest. Detectives, in civilian clothes, cover
crime cases generally, as distinguished from plainclothesmen, who
concentrate on vice and gambling
cases. I t Is reported the names of
more t h a n 140 men have been
turned in, many of them regretfully, with the commanding officer
of a squad sometimes apologizing
by explaining t h a t he had to
obey official orders. One case was
cited of a patrolman high on
the sergeant eligible list. The
squad commander minimized the
effect of reporting this man on
the ground t h a t he was least
likely to be hurt, with promotion
coming up soon. The bad report
would not afl^ect the promotion.
The order about the detective
squads, though not in writing,
came f r o m the Chief Inspector's
office.
2 items, specific knowledge of

5 items, knowledge of first aid.
11 items, English grammar.
5 items, vocabulary.
The heavy preponderance (more
t h a n 55 items) of specific knowledge questions which are included
In P a r t I is unwarranted. The Inclusion of location questions Is
never warranted unless the responses to them are validated as
significantly distinguishing between consistently good police
performers and poor ones.

P a r t II (75 items, one of which
was later stricken out) reveals
a much finer distinction and appreciation of the purposes of the
induction examination. The second
half employs Items calling for responses more conducive to an appraisal of capacity and potential
to benefit from police training. It
Is imfortunate t h a t the good selection of test Items In Part II is
warred by the Inclusion of ques-
tion Nos. 90 and 111-135. which
call for a knowledge of legal a n d
quasi-legal terminology and i t e n ^
No. 88 and 89. which also call
upon specific knowledge of loci^
tions.
Evaluation Summary
An overall evaluation of the
amination as a recruitment Instrument for Induction purposes
Indicates t h a t the test does not
fulfill its purpose because of toa
many specific knowledge questions.
For example, one recent
course In government or criminal
law could have enabled a candidate to obtain a score far out of
his relative standing in brightness
or intellect. A much more vahd
testing device could have been
achieved, perhaps, if P a r t I would
have consisted of a standard Intelligence test with a critical
score equivalent to an I.Q. of 110.
Part II might have consisted e(
the items which best measure wp
to the standards of good personnel testing and which put a
premium upon evaluating raw i n telligence, capacity to learn and
absorb new materials, memory
for names and faces, verbal facility, reasoning power,
maturs
judgment and other traits and
faculties Indicative of a reasonably high level of Intelligence.
It is only through the refinement of our selection devices as
auxiliaries to the important aspects of larger-area recruitment,
higher level salaries and psychiatric screening t h a t we may eventnally further dipnify and bring to
police ranks, the working conditions, the recognition, and staioa
of a police profession.
