Cost of Living Still Increasing
On the front pages of our daily newspapers during the past few

Up,
Lip, Up
...
On two successive days during the first week of October, the
newspapers reported increases in the following prices—one automobile manufacturer announced Increases of certain 1957 models
ranging from $57-$233; a large oil company raised the prices of
fuel oils from 0.2 to 0.5 cents per gallon—depending upon the grade
and location; a manufacturer of washing machines, driers, and freezers announced a price increase of $10-$30 a model; a popular magazine will now cost 35c Instead of 25c on the newsstands; a large
manufacturer of paints raised Its prices from 3-5% per gallon. A
paper company "-aised the price of its paper bags 2%, its wrapping
paper 5%; a shirt manufacturer changed the price tag of one of
Its standard brands from $3.95 to $4.50 and raised Its price on men's
underwear 15c per item; a producer of phonograph records upped
the price on its product from $4.98 to $5.98; a manufacturer of
citrus products raised the price on orange oil from $1.25 to $1.75
per pound; a manufacturer of dyes increased the cost of tinting
one cent per yard, and a group of railroads are seeking a 15% Increase in freight rates.
These items are not front page news, but singly and collectively
they reach into the pocket of each and every consumer. They
are part of a trend which has been going on for some months—the
same trend upon which we reported earlier when we noted the
price change In beef from 79c to $1.25 a pound In one month.
These items also when fitted into a table may not cause too
much of a statistical change, but one thing they will do. Is to take
extra pennies, dimes and dollars out of the purses of the shopper.
With the possible exception of freight rates, each and every one of
these items are those which Mr. and Mrs. Ordinary Person buy—
automobiles, shirts, underwear, washing machines, magazines, etc,
The significance of these comments for the public employee is
obvious—the salary resolution just adopted by the Association is
a must.

Merit System an Arm
Of Civil Defense, Too
H E merit system is more than words. This f a c t was
amply demonstrated in the recent report on the Office
of Civil Defense by Charles Preusse, City Administrator
of the City of N e w Y o r k . A section of that report deals
with personnel, and it ought to be required reading f o r
every government executive and every politician. For it
demonstrates in the most graphic w a y that the merit system and good sei'vice to the people are tied t o g e t h e r ;
and conversely, where an agency has circumvented the
merit system, the people can expect a good deal less than
competent conduct of their business.

The City Administrator'.s report lashed out hard at the
Office of Civil Defense, and its findings indicate that the
absence of a true merit system is one of the agency's
major faults. The report states:

specifications or duties f o r the 54 emergency defense
positions (these are the top .jobs in the a g e n c y ) , and thus
no accurate w a y of determining levels of responsibility
f o r the salary received.
In some cases employees are
clearly working out of title. In certain instances, civil
defense aides with lesser salaries are supervising employees with higher .salaries.
" I t is obvious that certain of the 'emergency defense
posilion.s' are not in fact 'unique and peculiar to civil
defense.' "

Why Fire Lieut.
Goes to College
Arthur C. Klevins, 42, father of
two children, Is an acting lieutenant in the New Y o r k City Fire
Department, a.ssigned to Engine
Company 214, Brooklyn. W h i l e
serving as a fire-fighter, he is attending Brooklyn College.
" I ' l l be eligible for retirement
f r o m the Fire Department at the
end of 1P58," he said. ' I'd like to
teach elementary school after I
retire from the Fire Department."
In
T h e report also called f o r more liaison between the
various levels of employees in the depai-tment, with staff
meetings, clearer lines of authority, and an opportunity
f o r employees to participate in creative work.
T h e report is a courageous document. Mr. Preusse,
who had a m a j o r role in the creation of N e w Y o r k City's
Department of Personnel and its new classification system,
«hows once again that he is a friend of the merit system,
l i e deserves the plaudits of all in civil service.
A Start for Competitive
Federal Promotions
to
Human Relations
Program Begins
Rocoiiiiiiends
T h e City Administrator makes clear-cut I'ecommenflations: That all " e m e r g e n c y defense positions" be
studied with a view toward classifying them ; that where
positions are found to be comparable to positions in other
City agencies, they be filled by competitive civil service
employees under the merit system; that job descriptions,
requirements, and salary grades be established f o r all
positions designed as emergency defense positions; and
that job-holders who fail to meet the requirements be
dropped or transferred.
1938, friends asked him
join them in going to Delehanty's
Institute to study for the fireman's
exam. Mr. Klevins did, and topped
the list of ellgibles in that year.
Mr. Klevins maintains a better
than " B " average in his college
courses. He also holds a Class A
Fire Department award for his
daring rescue of four children
trapped by flames.
A new program dealing with human relations in supervision and
administration was inaugurated by
Personnel Director Joseph Schechter.
This series of conference ses•sions is led by Charles Rutkoff, assistant director of the Training D i vision.
T h e participants and the New
Y o r k City departments they represent:
Theodore M, Aubertel and Leonard Braunfeld, Air Pollution Control; Joseph W . Dalton, Eileen
Murphy and James V. O'Reilly,
Chief Medical Examiner; Joan De
Mase, Sheriff's Office; Joseph D.
Javoco and Joseph F. Masopust,

Stegman, Municipal Broadcasting
System; Muriel Strong. Board of
Estimate; George T . W h i t f i e l d
City Clerk; David B. Heyman, L i censes, and John T. Olbala and
Robert Taylor, City Planning.
This program was devised for
the smaller City agencies.
H I L E so far-flung, intricate and precarious a system as the Federal civil service could hardly be
overhauled overnight, it is encouraging to find the U. S.
Civil Service Commission preparing to make at least
some promotions competitive. U p to now, promotions have
been based on personal or official choice, with overall reBults less than satisfactory.
W
The Commission plans to propose competitive tests
f o r promotions in the lower ranks, and a more rigorous
jtnd searching effort to advance the best qualified present
und future employees to the higher positions. A t least
Vhis is a good start. Moreover, it portends the ultimate
extension of competitive testing f o r filling even the higher p o s i t i o n ^

St. Albans Naval Hospital needs
women nursing assistants (medical
and surgery) at $3,175. Requirements are one year's experience,
graduation as a practical nurse, or
an equivalent combination. Apply
at the U. S. Civil Service Commission's Second Regional office, 641
Washington Street. New Y o r k 14,
N. Y.; the Board of U. S. Civil
Service Examiners, N, Y . Naval
Shipyard, Naval Base, Brooklyn 1,
or at any post office except in
Manhattan or the Bronx, through
Thursday, October 25.
Letters have been written to all
the Board of Estimate members,
asking the eligibles be given a public hearing by the Board.
Contempt Charges Possible
If the eligibles have to wage
their court case all the way to the
Court of Appeals, a costly process,
and if they win, they say they have
no recourse save to have City o f ficials cited for contempt of court,
if disobedience to the law, and the
court order, continues thereafter.
T h e present case differs f r o m the
others of the same nature because
brought while the list was still
young. Previous cases dealt with
lists nearing their expiration date.
Hence success in the Instant case
could mean the promotion of an
additional 200 to lieutenant. T h i s
fact the eligibles cited to refute the
City's assertion that the issue is
negligible, and that the " a c t i n g "
assignments are merely Intermittent. T h e $749,507 saved in about
four months is at the rate of $2,248. 521 a year, they point out, e m phasizing that the City treats the
problem as if it were i n l y budgetary, and without regard to legal
requirements.
"Ours Is a government of laws,
not of money," say the eligibles.
Charles and Garrison Help
Mr. Barry
assigned
Clinton
Charles and Harry Garrison, m e m bers of the U F A executive board,
to aid the eligibles to gain their
objectives, Messrs. Charles and
Garrison accompanied Mr. C o r coran to an interview with C o m missioner
Cavanagh.
A l l three
firemen emerged with the COQviction that the Commissioner U
strongly ia their coraer.

Exam Closes Notable Brief
For Hospital
Soon for Social
Investigator
New York City, with nearly 800
vacancies in the social investigator
title, has its welcome mat out for
candidates for the February 2 test.
Submitted
Raises
In support of its argument for higher pay for the New York
City nursing occupational group. Local 237, Teamsters, submitted a
memorandum that lmpres.sed some of the members of the Salary A p peal Board as a model. It was comprehensive, detailed, searching and,
as the Hospital Department itself voluntarily admitted, fair to t h e
department. Tiie union has long recognized the personnel difRculties
confronting the department.
The following is a digest of the brief:
" T h e Career and Pay Plan—
first model and first style—was
unveiled last year.
"Like any first model, it was
understood there would be bugs
requiring remodeling and restyling.
"One bug was caught before
the model was ofT the assembly
line and out of the factory.
" W e refer to tlie Nurses Aides,
originally
omitted
from
the
Nurses Occupational Group, who
were finally put in.
"The model wasn't on the road
too long before you had to eliminate a bad body rattle by adjusting the problem of the Head
Nurses.
"Your plan. 1955 style, has
been tested for more than one
year by the 15,000 employees in
this sen'ice. Their
unanimous
finding is that it has given no
better performance and mileage
than models in years gone by.
They now recommend that a
complete retooling job be done
and that a drastically revised
plan, equipped to meet the needs
and requirements of the 1956
market, be done.
"Nursing Service employees are
not looking for a Cadillac Plan.
They will be satisfied with a car
that will give them performance
and mileage."
