WHILK JOB SECURITY is one of the attractions of public
employment, t h a t security is seriously undermined when there is
little or no protection against unjust removal.
Undoubtedly the greatest protection any employee in public or
private job can have is fair treatment by management, since safeguards are required only as a protection against unfair treatment.
Representative Paul Fino <R., N.Y.), has introduced a bill In
Congress to entitle U.S. employees to a hearing before dismissal, and,
on being ordered dismissed, right of appeal to a Federal Court in
their own judicial district. Instead of having to sue in the District
of Columbia. While such a bill is sweeping in its effect, and would
grant greater safeguards t h a n exist in the presently more protective
State and local jurisdictions, perhaps the provocation is greater.
Under the U.S. Civil Service Commission's regulations regarding
non-veterans the removal must be for such cause as will promote
the efficiency of the service, another way of saying no valid reason
need exist, because the department t h a t decides against the employee
also decides whether its own action promotes the efficiency of the
service, and by coincidence it always does. The non-veteran has no
opportunity except to reply.
Next the aggrieved non-veteran wants to know whether he can
appeal to the Commission against an adverse disciplinary decision,
and the answer is "Yes. but," and note the "but" — only if the pre.scribed procedure was not followed, or if the removal was made for
political reasons, or resulted from discrimination because of race,
religion, national origin, or marital status, none of which has anything to do with the merits. And even then, after hearing the appeal,
and after finding the employee has been aggrieved, what power has
the Commission? It has the power only to recommend corrective
action. T h u s many words are used to disguise the fact there is no
protection, though the merits of the employee's defense may have been
overwhelming.
Under the Veterans Preference Act, appeals are allowed without
t h a t narrow restriction; the Commission's decision is not advisory
but mandatory, if only the department does not refuse to obey it,
and put the Commission in an embarrassing position.
Another bill in Congress would endow the Commission with a
"sanction" it does not possess, by enabling it to participate in court
suits involving dismissal cases, and, on obtaining a judgment, at last
have the U. S. Marshal behind it as an enforcing officer.
It is to the credit of civil service t h a t dismissal cases are not
numerous, and deserved hardly any public attention until the U.S.
separations under the loyalty and secvirity programs got under way.
I t is not to the credit of civil service, however, t h a t an u n j u s t dismissal can be inflicted, with almost nothing t h a t the injured employee
can do about it, and what little he can do, is so costly.
The two bills are in the right direction; if somewhat sweeping,
can be amended.

Overtime Pay
To Local Employees
nder well established principles of home rule, cities,
counties, towns and other local units of government
in New York Statehave assumed that they have the inherent right to pay overtime compensation to their employees. Many local units of government have found to
their surprise, however, that both the Comptroller of th«
State of New York and the Attorney General have issued
rulings to the effect that local units of government are prohibited from paying overtime compensation to various
groups of employees. Since an employee who works overtime must, in fairness, be paid for his oveii;ime work, the
local units of government have, in many cases, paid overtime compensation by subterfuges of one kind or another.
U
The Comptroller and the Attorney General have issued opinions to the effect that overtime is prohibited by,
adopting a strained construction of various laws, including section 21, subdivision 5 of the City Home Rule Law,
section 205 of the County Law and sections 160 and 220
of the Labor Law, and some rather ancient court decisions.
Competent attorneys entertain a very serious doubt as to
whether the rulings' of the Attorney General and the
Comptroller in this field would be upheld by the courts at
the present time. Nevertheless, these rulings are, as a
practical matter, binding on local governmental officers
who feel, in any event, an obligation to follow them.
A bill introduced by Senator Hatfield and Assemblyman Wilcox would remove the confusion that now exists
by an express declaration of the Legislature that local
units of government have the power to pay overtime compensation to their employees under such rules and regulations as they may prescribe.
The bill is permissive, not mandatory. It restores to
local units of government the powers which they have
always assumed they have had and which they should
have in the interest of good government.
The bill is so obviously "right" that it should become
law.

PUBLIC EMPLOYEE GROUPS are so fully occupied with their
own specialized problems that they seldom find time or opportunity
to support general projects in which they would benefit as members
of the body politic. Such general matters are often not even called
to their attention. More's the pity. When a proposal is before Congress to increase U.S. income tax individual exemption from $600
to $800 for 1954 (tax payable in 1955), and to $1,000 the following
year, a public employee group t h a t strives for a direct pay increa.se
might be anxious to help obtain an indirect one, through increase
of take-home pay. The minimum benefit, the fir.st year, at present
rates, would be about $45, the following year $90, for a solitary exemption. Husband, wife and two children, constituting four exemptions,
would provide about $175 minimum benefit the first year, $350 the
second.
A NATION.4L UNION of Federal employees, di.scus.sing a survey
of jobs in a Federal department made by an engineering firm the
Government hired, complains t h a t the investigators showed "a complete unfamiliarity with most of the duties" of the employees whose
jobs they surveyed. This is not an unusual critici.sm of "outside"
surveys, A certain air of unfamiliarity may be discovered in most of
them, but there is a compensating advantage. Engineering firms
experienced in surveying jobs offer freshness that internal surveys
often lack, and even propose changes without regard to the difficulty
of attaining them. For instance, one such survey in NYC proposed
an amendment to the State Constitution, an undertaking from which
even the most persevering would recoil.
If one takes for granted some degree of unfamiliarity as
unavoidable in "outside" reports, one avoids the mistake of dismissing
all recommendalion.s of the report.
Civil service administration, budget practices and policies, curing
of pay inequities, adopting scientific classification, and other forward
steps encounter a firmly embedded inertia. "Outside" engineering
firms, in exerting pressure to get things moving in the right direction. may be forgiven a few false steps that feet more familiar with
civil service roads would not take. (It is to be noted the experts
always leave the recommendation.s to be effectuated by the inexpert!)
GERALD FITZGERALD, legislative director of the Government
and Civic Employees Organizing Committee, CIO, turns out a readable weekly report on Federal legislation, though never in laudation
of the present national administration. If he pulls no punches, perhaps at least he has made one exception. Discu.ssing pay and livingcost charts submitted by government statisticians, that clid not too
strongly support an ample pay raise, he cited "proof of the adage
t h a t while figures don't lie, stalistieians wjll figure," instead of saying
t h a t while figures don't lie. etc.

T H E CLASSIFICATION BUIIEAU of the NYC Civil Service Commission expects to begin public hearings soon. T h e s t a r t could n o t
be begun until Budget Director A b r a h a m D. Beame a n d t h e Commission got together on a proposed overall plan. Meetings have been
held and it is expected a mutually acceptable scheme will be
announced soon.
T h e Commission h a d its own plan, Mr. Beame somewhat different ideas, and since both parties have equal responsibility, by
direction of t h e Mayor, agreement h a d to be reached.
' T h e plan will consist of a schedule setting u p a definite number
of grades, with m i n i m u m and m a x i m u m salaries for each, and with
each title to be fitted into a grade. Since t h e problem is considered too vast to tackle at one time, and not enough money is in
sight to effectuate complete revision, the job will be done piecemeal.
First to be considered will probably be t h e Engineering a n d
Technical Service. Agreement with employees h a s practically been
reached, excepting for money. If the reclassification of t h a t service
is voted as proposed, some plan to distribute t h e benefits over two
years, instead of granting t h e m all in t h e first year, may be worked
out.

W I T H A BILL before the Legislature to reorganize the NYC
Civil Service Commission, spirit is low among t h e Commission staff.
Public employees tend to take a sombre view of uncertainties, a n d
certainly Commissioners whose jobs may be a t stake can not avoid
doing so. . . . Much improvement in suggestion program, with more
extensive plans, broader aspects, a n d higher remuneration to winners,
may be expected this year, with t h e Federal government setting t h e
pace. T h e benefits to government are so large, compared to w h a t t h e
winners receive, t h a t t h e improvement is long overdue. Private industry awards are better, but even they fall short. . . . Civil Service Commissions received more anonymous letters charging employees with
being suspected of Communism, before the loyalty a n d security laws
were enacted, t h a n are received now . . . NYC h a s disqualified some
eliglbles f r o m a p p o i n t m e n t jobs in security agencies, b u t jobs in n o n security agencies are open to them, since t h e limited exclusion is t h e
extent to which t h e law allows t h e S t a t e or local Commission to act.
Federal law confers more powerful sanction.
WHILE NYC EMPLOYEES are deeply interested in t h e new
Labor D e p a r t m e n t in t h e government, and are watching t h e pro• posed reorganization of the Municipal Civil Service Commission, make
no mistake about w h a t interests t h e m most. I t is increased pay.
T h e Wagner administration is trying to find a way to g r a n t a n
increase t h a t won't be piddling.
T H E POSTAL UNIONS set t h e pace in Federal pay improvements. The recent rally of the AFL postal unions in Washington was
stirring. Emotional a n d convincing f a c t u a l appeals were combined.

Tax Exemption on Pension
And New Exclusion Plan

HOSPITAL EMPLOYEES
RENEW CHARITY DRIVE
The Employees Welfare Fund
of the NYC Department of Hospitals is conducting until May 31
its annual drive for contributions
to aid various religious and welfare groups. Contributions may
be given to the institutional representative in each of the 33 institutions of the department. Last
year donations totalled $12,472.
The organization hopes to double
the figure this year.
WASHINGTON, March 15 — 55—18.9; 60—15.5; 65—12.4; T O I n two resppcts the omnibus tax ILS; 70—9.8; '<5—7.5; 80—5.5;

Committee pectancy Is a little more, except
would reduce the taxable part of at age 80 or more, when it is a
pension receipts.
little less.
Only such part of pension or
retirement allowance as is taxable
is called income, under the Internal Revenue Act, hence taxable
income would be reduced.
The two ways are: 1, a 1
ed
exemption of tj?e first
of
pension receipts; and 2, a new
computation method that would
permit further exclusion of retirement receipts from taxable income, by using a formula based on
life expectancy.
Three Basic Points
A digest of the conditions under which the $1,200 exemption
would apply follows:
1. The taxpayer must be at least
«6.
2. The exemption would be reduced by any earnings in excess of
$900, dollar for dollar. Since e a r n ing $900 more t h a n the $1,200
exemption would kill the exemp^ tion, no benefit would accrue to
' t h o s e receiving income of $2,100
in excess of the retirement allowance.
3. The maximum allowable pension exclusion would be $240.
The income additional to pension would mclude all sorts of receipts, such as dividends, interest, rent, and wages.
The theory on which tlie proposed exclusion is based is mainly
one of need. The additional reasons, usually asserted by public
employee organizations, of the inquity of taxing some pensions,
while leaving others wholly-t^xexempt, and thus taxing money
when it is coming out, after having taxed It when it went in, is
ignored in the committee progran*.
Present Law's Provisions
Full tax exemption, up to a
certain amount, say, $1,800. has
been the demand of public employee organizations, with no
strings attached, regardless of
age or gainful employment during retirement on pension. The
Social Security aspects need not
be considered, for while limits
of gainful employment suspend
the pension, without attaining
such limits the recipient has a
100 percent tax-free pension.
Under the present law, limited
tax exemption now exists. For as
long as the benefit holds, 3 percent of retirement cost to the
taxpayer is reported as income,
and not the retirement allowance
at all. Subtracting the 3 percent
of total contributions, reported
each year, from the retirement allowance received, gives the amount
"forgiven" for t h a t year. When
the sum of the amounts forgiven,
year after year, equals the total
money the pensioner put into the
retirement system, the full retirement allowance is thereafter taxed.
The proposed substitution for
this method would require dividing the total the pensioner put
into the retirement system, by the
nu,mber of years of life expectancy
at the time paid retirement began.

Cavanagh
Impresses
UFOA Croup
The Uniformed Fire Offlcers
A.ssociation is much heartened by
the stand taken by NYC Fire
Commissioner Edward F. Cavanagh Jr. against reduction in the
number of Are companies.
One of the problems inherited
by Commissioner Cavanagh, a.s
well a.s by his predecessors, is the
number of firemen and officers
f o r k i n g out of title. It is estimated
t h a t each week a thousand firemen serve as acting lieutenants,
at fireman pay. Officers also fill
higher "acting" titles.
The UFOA has been stressing
t h e need for Increasing the n u m ber personnel of the uniformed
lorce to eliminate out-of-title
work. One of the major complaints
br UFOA over a long period has
been the number of captains who
«re acting as chiefs, and thus
saddled with the dual responsibilities of company officer and
chief officer. This is doubly objectionable to the captains on promotion lists. Commissioner Cavanagh
is now studying
the
possibility of making more promotions.
A UFOA delegation met Commissioner Cavanagh, was struck
with his interest in the welfare
of the department and its personnel. and estimated him to be a
man would be strict but fair.
Cavanagh Studying Problems
Tlie Commissioner, newly appointed after having served a.s
Commissioner of Marine ar^d
Aviation, is studying out-of-title
work, possible promotions, pay,
and other departmental prol)lems.
One of the arguments supporting the Commissioner's stand
against reduction in the number
of fire houses is the growth of
population in the suburbs, with
tens of thouands of frame houses
having gone up while the number
of fire companies has not been
increased. Also, fire insurance
rates have been rising, and these
are 'related in part to the degree
of Are protection.
The UFOA held a membership
meeting recently. The principal
topic discussed was a bill to increase the widow's benefit from
present $11 a week. An eftort
was made to obtain a certificate
of necessity from the Mayor or
t h e Council but not assurances
were reported from either t h a t it
would be granted. One would be
nece.ssary before the Legislature
could act on the bill.
