Salary Question Box
As a service to its readers, The Civil Service LEADER will ran
&® question box where questions concerning the new State salary plan
ean be asked and will be answered. Your questions are solicited. They
will be referred to the staff of The Civil Service Employees Association
and to State officials, Questions of general interest will be answered
here, and those that are applicable to individuals only will insofar
as possible, receive a direct mail reply,
QUESTION: How will the increment that I received, effective April
1 this year affect any pay adjustment that I might get when the
new plan goes into effect?
ANSWER: When you receive your check for the wage adjustment due
you, it will be retroactive back to April 1, Any adjustment this year
will be limited to two new increments. The salary increase that you
receive April Ist by reason of your having received an increment
will be deducted from the total amount due you this year.
QUESTION: After I receive my increment April 1, I am still entitled
to receive one more before I reach the maximum of my salary
grade, If I should be put in a salary grade whose maximum is
higher than that which I now receive, am I entitled to any more
money?
ANSWER: Yes
after April 1, 1954.
QUESTION: In 1950, I was reclassified to a new job, Does this have
any effect on my eligibility for the “extra step’?
ANSWER:
reclassification was a promotion, then you would not start accumu-
lating eligibility for the extra step until you are at the maximum
of your reclassified grade. There are, however, many reclassifi
tions that are not promotions; and in such a case, for the purpose
of the additional increment, the 5 years at the maximum would
begin at the time one had reached the salary equal to maximum
pay of his position before the 1950 reclassification.
QUESTION: I have been at my maximum since April 1, 1949, I got
an unsatisfa¢vory service record rating in 1950 and 1952, What
effect does that have on my getting the extra step?
ANSWER: If you had satisfactory service for each of the five years
that you were at your maximum, you would be eligible for the
extra step now, However, since you had an unsatisfactory service
record rating for two years, this will delay your eligibility for the
extra step until you have had five years of satisfactory performance
at your maximum. In other words, when you have achieved two
more years of satisfactory service, you'll get the extra step,
@UESTION: I am a baker in State service. How big an extra cheek
will I get on October Ist this year from this new plan?
ANSWER: In the first place, you probably won't receive your “retro-
active’ check on October Ist. It will be some time after October
1st, but you will receive all of the extra money that is due you, and
that has started to accumulate to your credit as of April 1, 1954.
No one knows where the position of baker is going to be allocated
in this new plan, so that we are unable to tell you what your new
grade will be, No one will know this until some time after August
lst when the new allocations are announced.
QUESTION: I am a typist who has worked for the State two years,
My friend is a typist who has worked for the State three years.
Will we both get the same amount of raise?
ANSWER: No, Persons at different salary steps, in the process of
changing from the old to the new plan, will receive different
amounts of pay adjustment. The new plan more systematic
than the old one. You can't change from one scheduled to another
in this fashion wit ome rates mo Just
is
than others
of monies, However, all jobs at the same step within the salary
grade and title will be treated equally.
You are entitled to receive enough money to put you
at the same step in the new grade as you were in the old grade
We can’t answer that without more information. If the

of Appeals for the District of Columbia has held in three recent
eases. Once the department has followed the required procedure, the
ourts will not substitute their judgment for the department's, as to
whether the offense was sufficient to warrant dismissal.
The tightening of “the rule of specificity,” as the courts call it,
should act as a deterrent to departments acting hastily and improperly
in ordering dismissals.
Gallantry No Excuse
Some hesitancy by departments in supplying an employee with
specific, detailed charges arises from understandable motive. A morals
charge may be involved, and there is a natural tendency not to pub-
Hicize the names of the girls. The departments are now on judictal
specific, otherwise the employee is prevented from
disproving them, and, if removed, must be reinstated, the U. 8. Court

WASHINGTON, April 26—The | ——

Service Commission In disciplinary
cases was adversely criticized by
House Post Office and Civil Service
subcommittee. The group recom-
mended appeals be heard in local
areas, to end the long delays. It
now takes at least eight months
to get even a veteran's appeal
heard.
The subcommittee asked that

In one ense, the attempt to avoid publicizing the identities of the
accusers worked in reverse. The employee ordered dismissed found out
who they were and sued them for libel and slander. He won and col-
Jected ordinary and pur es,
A veteran has a stronger legal protection. No permanent or tn-
Gefinite veteran preference employee shall be discharged without
at least 30 days’ notice in writing, “stating any and all ri
cifically and in detail.” An opportunity to reply must be afforded.
But if the charges are vague and uncertain, to what shall he reply?
In reversing the dismissal of a civilian employee of the Army, the
sourt held that, though the other party to a morals charge was
identified, it was not infor enough when the department
accused the employee of “abnormal practices.” The specific acts
must be identified, too, and described, with time and place.
Kissing Bee Considered
A master mechanic in the forge shop, Philadelphia Navy Yard,
was accused of kissing girls at a surprise birthday party given in the
shop in his honor, as one of two stated instances of alleged “immoral
er notoriously disgraceful conduct.” He protested, in effect, what can
& fellow do when the girls crowd around him at his birthday party
and shower him with kis: He said they kissed him; he did not
kiss them. The court soberly held that if the Navy Department wanted
to make anything the kissing bee,
accused employee of the name of each and every girl who kissed him.
The same would be true of identifying two women at the party to|
whom, the department charged, he tried to make advances.
A vague charge like that of “making advances” is insufficient, no
matter how serious the overall nature of the alleged offense, the
court held, and the department may not resort to Executive Order
9835 to withhold the details of the charges, unless national security
would be endangered. It was not contended that a man kissed by
women at a party became a national security risk.
The court took pains to show what an employee is up against

ELIGIBLE LISTS ISSUED IN
STATE ‘COLLEGE SERIES’
ALBANY, April 26—Betty Jane
Gassner, 19, a graduate student at
New York University, led the col-
lege seniors and graduates who
passed the 1954 college series of
examinations for entrance to pro-
fessional and technical jobs in
Btate service.
The series of tests is held an-
nually to recruit collegians for en-
trance career posts in State serv~-
fee, About 1,500 applied for the
exams, held January 16.
Twelve eligible lists resulted
from the January tests. They in-
clude a “general” list of 204 can-
didates and special lists in 11
fields: engineering and architec-
ture, biology, chemistry, physics,
economics, mathematics, statistics,
yehology, journalism, law and
fibrary science,
Many Duplicate Names
The 12 lists include 674 names,
but many are duplicates because
candidates could compete in more
than one specialty and all were
scored for the general list, The
lists also indicated that 603 did
not pass, The remaining candl-
dates were disqualified or absent.
About 100 vacancies with vari-
ous State agencies are expected to
be filled from the lists. Other parts
of this year's college series to fill
oth:Y openings include the public
administration int ship exami-
nation, the results of which are
expected later this month,
Mis Gassner, who lives at 35
Port Hill Circle, Staten Island,
topped the general list
grade of 96.80. She was also first
on the mathematics and third on
the statistics lists. A 1953 grad-
uate of New York University with
a mathematics major, she also at-
tended Hunter College and Man-
hattan School of Music.
The first three names on each
list are as follows:
General
Betty J. Gassner, Staten Island,
96.80; Mark L. Wehl¢, NYC, 96.68;
Bernard T. Perlman, NYC, 95.40

Hope Rises for
A Little Larger
U. S. Pay Raise
WASHINGTON, April 26—Sena-
tors and Representatives back from
their Easter holiday had an even
better idea of the intensity of U. S.
employee need for a sizeable raise
Both the postul groups and the
classified (white collar) workers
Duttonholed their legislators in
home territory during the Con-
gressional recess, and stressed the
need of more than the pittance
raises in the Administration plan
for the little fellow, a plan that}
includes no raise at all for the two
Jowest classified grades,
Leaders of employee groups, who
eanvassed the legislators on their
return, reported that the situation
has brightened a little, that the
Eisenhower administration plan is
Nkely to be exceeded, even if the
President has to be overriden, but
that the raise will be no where near
$700 and $800 across-the-board
amounts the unions have been de-
manding. Substantial raises for
top and other upper categories
are certain, rather unsubstantial
enes for the others, though the
eriginal pittances will go by the
boards, the inquirers felt
‘The Eisenhower administration,
however, has given no sign of
budging from either its postal or
@lassified employee salary plan.
(See Newsletter, Page 17, for
prophecy of what the increased
raises will be.—Editor,)

Extensive revision of the Rules
and Reguistions of the Municipal
Civil Service Commission will be
necessary to conform to the new
Jaw that creates a NYC Personnel
Director, and a Commission, with
that Director as President. For in-
stance, the very first present Rule
states; “The Commission shall
choose from its own membership
a President, who shall serve dur-
ing its pleasure,” but the new law,
Chapter 354, provides the Mayor
shall select the Personnel Direc-
| tor-Chairman, who shall serve
only during the incumbency of
the Mayor,
At present the Commission cer-
tifies payrolls; after July 1 the
Personnel Director will do so, The
Commission conducts exams and
makes certifications, but the Per-
sonnel Director will administer
these duties, Many other transfers
of authority to the Personnel Di-
rector will require amendments to
the Rules. About 40 per cent of
the Rules will have to be changed.
| The new law is effective June
First Big Dilemma
Confronis Unappointed
Personnel Director
Director's job and two other Com-
missionerships are being consid-
ered, so everything will be ready,
but the new Department of Per-
sonnel, of which the Commission
becomes an adjunct, will not be
able to function under existing
Rules, That argues for prompt
selection of the Personnel Diree=
tor, and his co-Commissionera,
and decision by the new appoint-
ees, prior to taking office, as te
what they think the changes
should be,
Because the new law defines the
duties of the Personnel Director,
not much controversy over the
changes in the Rules is expected,
but the outgoing Commission
would have to vote them, the
Mayor sign them, and the State
Commission approve them, if the
changes are to be enacted prior
to the advent of the Personnel
Director era in NYC. Since the
statute was enncted later than
any of the Rules, an alternative
would be to operate under the
Rules not affected by statute, and
ee statute where it supplants

Transit Employees Seek
To Get Out of Graded Class
As Road to Higher Pay
Declaring that thousands of
| employees of the Transit Author-
ity are being denied higher pay
under Section 220 of the Labor
Law, because their titles are in
the graded service, Roy P. Mona-
han, attorney for some of the em-
ployees, has requested the NYC
Civil Service Commission to take
them out of the graded service,
He points out that some titles
have been left ungraded by the
Commission, so that men in one
group doing similar work get the
prevailing rate of wages required
under the Labor Law, while oe
ers, whose titles are graded,
the lower pay set by the TA,
The graded titles are in Part
39 of the Civil Service Rules. Mr.
Monahan wants the Commission
to put them in Part 38, in which
compensation is fixed at the pre-
vailing rate of wages.
No Luck in Court
‘The attempt to obtain prevail-
ing rates for laborers, workmen
and mechanics employed on pub-
lic works—the groups covered by
the Labor Law —has repeatediy
Social Security
Life expectancy today ts about}
21 years longer than it was in 1900.
‘This means that the average Amer-
ican now lives to be more than 70
years old. Thus, more of us can ex-
pect to live well into our seven-
ties, eighties, and even nineties,
Throughout life most of us have
sat down and taken stock of what
we were doing and where we were
going. Figuring up our assets and
Nabiliti we decided what to do
for a living, whom to marry, where
to live, how to bring up our chil-
dren, ete. In many cases this plan-
ning is not a very conscious proc-
ess; often we more or less drift
into things. As we grow older,
however, it is wise to make serious
and conscious plans for the future
— for the years after we decide to
retire or are forced to retire at
age 65 or later. Ranking high in
such planning should be a com-
prehensive plan aimed at meeting
Personal and family economic
needs,
Analyze Benefits
Tf, in formulating your plan,
you are fortunate enough to be
able to look forward to a civil
service pension; if, in preparation
for the proverbial rainy day you
have laid aside a portion of your
earnings in a savings account; if
wise investments have been made
from which you hope to derive in-
come; and if home ownership is
numbered among your goals or
accomplishments, you and your
family may indeed look forward}
with much confidence to a finan-
cially secure old age.
Don't let your planning stop
there, Don't overlook what may
very well prove the most important
plan in your entire planning pro-
gram your stake in Federal
6id- |-Age and Survivors Insurance,
In fairness to yourself and your
family, you should find out how
Social Security fits into your plan
for the future, Ask your local So-
cial Security Administration office
for free booklet No. 35, and if you
have any questions on this subject,
address them to the Social Secur-
ity Editor, The LEADER,
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
I OBTAINED a Social Security| 2
card in 1937 when I was working
in private industry, and used that}
account number until 1946, when
I began to work for New York
State. While I am still working)
for the State and am covered un-|
der the State Retirement System, |
I have an opportunity to work in|
private jobs under Social Security,
after regular hours, How do I
stand as far as Soctal Security?
R.B.
Answet—The earnings recorded
in your Social Security account
from 1937 to 1946 would still be
credited to you, If you now work
ered jobs use the same |
arity number, Your new
under covered employ-
earnings
ment will be added to those al-
ready credited to you. This means
that all the combined earnings in|
covered employment will be used
in determining whether you qual-

which may be payable to you.
I EXPECT to retire from the
NYC Police Department after 25
years’ service. I expect to work
under Social Security and con-

Mr. Monahan says the City uses
titles not descriptive of duties,
He cites mechanical maintainer,
group B, as an elevator mechanic
and repairer and maintainer of
escalators, in the graded service.
However, the elevator mechanic |
title, he finds, is in the ungraded)
service, to which prevailing rates |
apply, and the pay is much
higher. Bus maintainer, a TA ti-
tle, is really an. auto mechanic,
says the lawyer, suffering the
same disadvantage.
He adds that froms citywide
lists @ man appointed to the TA
gets less pay for doing the same
work a5 & man appointed to a
City department. The TA is a
State-City agency.
He lists 73 titles he requests be
shifted to Part 38 so that the
employees may obtain the rates
of pay prevailing in local private
industry. Comptroller Lawrence E.
Gerosa then would determine
what the prevailing rates are. The
titles:
Structure maintainer; structure

G; structure maintainer’s helper,
A, B, C, and D.

Answer — If an individual be-
comes eligible for Social Security
payments, he may receive those
Payments even though he may
also be receiving a public pension,
The receipt of a civil service pen-
sion or a private pension does not
affect the receipt of Social Secur-
ity payments,
WHEN MY HUSBAND died in
1950, I received one lump sum So-
cial Security payment, and was
told that on reaching age 65 I
would become entitled to monthly
widow's payments. Since I am now
working for the NYC Department
of Hospitals, and am under Social
Security, will I be eligible for the
monthly payments when I become
65 in December of this year? M.T.
Answer — When you become age
65, your Social Security payments
would be made, only if you are
earning $75 or less a month in
your present job. You would re-
ceive no payment for any month
in which you receive more than
$75 for gainful employment. Your
local Social Security Administra-
tion office will be glad to give ad-
diitonal details,
HOW CAN I find out how much
in wages is recorded in my Social
Security account. I have been un-
der Social Security for at _
eight years.
Answer — You may obtain from
your local Social Security Admin-
istration office a form to mail to
their Records Division, to get the
statement you mention, The form
you want is Form 7004.
CAN I COLLECT Social! Secu-
rity? I am a member of the New
York State Retirement System for
years, and am 65 years old. I
worked under Social Security for
oa months, in private jobs. C. P,
Answer Employees of New
York State. who are covered by
the State Retirement System, are
not under Social Security. Your
private employment for six
months would not be sufficient to
qualify you for Social Security
payment. You would need at least
1's years of such employment if
you are now 65.
T AM WORKING for 1‘) years
as a professional in the Depart-
ment of Hospitals, NYC govern-
ment. I would like to know
whether I am covered under So-
cial Security, A. M.
Answer—You should get in
touch with the personnel office of
your hospital, to see what your
status is. Many thousands of NYC
employees became covered by So-
cial Security in January, 1954.
You may be one of them.

Psychiatric Social -
Workers Have Solid Case
TATE psychiatric social workers are not a large group,
but it is patent that they are being unjustly treated
salary-wise; and are in need of upgrading. Take these
facts:
New Jersey has a salary range for psychiatric social
of $4,020 to $4,920; senior psychiatric social workers
range from $4,560 to $5,460.
Ohio has a starting salary of $4,320, with increments
going up to $5,280.
The Federal government starts psychiatric social
workers, $4,020 to $4,920; senior psychiatric social work-
ers range from $4,560 to $5,460.
And New York State? Here the range is $3,411 to
$4,212, substantially below the other units.
New York State has a training program and funds
under the National Mental Health Act to pay for school-
ing, but salaries in the State are so low that graduates
rarely stay longer than the year required of them.
The LEADER strongly recommends, in the interests
both of fairness and better service, that the upgrading
being asked by the psychiatric social workers be approved,
Resistance Is Growing
To Civil Service Attacks
ITH public employees so long on the chopping block,
it was good to see last week the vigorous defense
of them made by James R. Watson, executive director of
the National Civil Service League. Mr. Watson sharply

A Vicious Thing
One official told this column:
“This immunity from suit was the
most vicious thing that existed
legally. It was one of the reasons
why the Port Authority was so
arrogant toward éverybody — in-
cluding the Mayor. I give you an
example how vicious it is. If you

A Toll Is Forever
Another severe cause of irrita-
tion over the operation of author-
ities Is finances, There is constant
citizen grumbling that once a toll
is slapped on a bridge or a tunnel,
it's forever! That toll will never
be removed or reduced. Autoists
keep askin: ‘How many times
over has the Holland Tunnel been
paid for?” “Wi doesn’t the
money-making Triborough Bridge
Authority reduce the fees on that
bridge?” The fact is that while
this is supposed to be done, it
just isn’t done. The authorities
use their profits on one facility to
Nan and build others. Also, they
eep repeating the argument that
they have to maintain the fees be-
cause of their obligations to bond-
holders. But a top City official,
who knows authorities as well as
anyone in government, says this:
“That's a lie. Sure they pledge
fealty to the bondholders, But
why? They amass huge profits,
too, The theory is that when
facility is paid for, it's turned
back. But that doesn't happen,
The authorities pile up money at
a tremendous rate—and they have
to find ways of sopping up the
surplus, Yes, authorities are nec-
essary. But they represent un-
regulated, unrestricted ANAC =

“As you know, it is only through the career service
that government can be adequately staffed. But the polit-
ieal and publicity-seeking game of undermining and berat-
ing the civil servant creates a continuing personnel prob-
lem. It prevents our government from attracting that high
type of capable and dedicated employee it so badly
needs.”
Resistance is growing to the sledge-hammer blows
which for so long have been aimed at public employees—
particularly in the’Federal service. The time may yet come
when again the Federal worker can hold his head in dig-
nity, with a true pride in his work.

Question of Taxes
That's a lot of millions. Now
consider this significant point:
Suppose authorities paid taxes,
They take in huge revenues, amass
huge surpluses, build and grow,
grow and build, without having
to worry about the problems such
as are faced by private business
or by government. If their sur-
pluses could be shifted into taxes,
the burdens upon the communities
might be materially reduced. To
realize what it would mean if the
authorities paid taxes, take this
example: If the Port Authority
were paying on its investment of
nearly a half-billion dollars, the
amount would be about half its
$32,418,000 net—oand would still
leave the Port, Authority with sub-
stantial working surplus.

LOOK FOR a U, 8. pay increase that will grant $100 a year
raise to the two lowest grades, instead of nothing, 4 per cent for
those in other low and medium pay brackets, with substantial in-
creases In the upper and top pay levels. Also watch the postal pay
increase, now proposed as $100 average by the Eisenhower Adminis-
|tration, become $200, . . . Postal employees are in for a parity they
won't like. Now when ® pay period is up, they're paid “on the nose”,
In the classified service there's a 10-day wait. Postal employees will
have to suffer the same lag. Reason? Bookkeeping economy!
A NEARLY five-fold increase in the present number of U. 8,
Foreign Service employees to 6,000, is recommended by the State
| Department's Committee on Personnel. The Porelgn Operations Ad-
|ministration, the U. S. Information Agency and some groups of
| employees in the United Nations in the Foreign Service will be pro-
|posed for inclusion in the Poreign Service. The type of exam gived
for filling Foreign Service jobs would be revised, Language training
of diplomats would be increased. Allowances would be higher for
overseas assignments. Security clearances would be speeded, Diplo-
mats would be promotéd faster.
MEMBERS of the House Appropriations Committee rejected a
&@ recommendation for additional fringe benefits to Canal Zone em-
ployees, which was based on what such employees must forgo, The
members said many of their own constituents forgo as much, or more,
Booz, Allen and Hamilton, a management engineering firm, in making
the recommendation, gave these grounds: ‘The Canal Zone employee
forgoes TV, big league baseball, first-class theaters, art exhibits, sym-
phony concerts and even the opportunity to window show. And zoos
|are lacking.”
| CHICAGO HAS a continuous recruitment plan for policemen,

000 applicants, and considered the number too small. Ten thousand
showed up for the test, and an eligible list of at least 5,000 is being
sought. One of the two parts of the test may be weighted higher, te

Signing my job, how can it be
@one? L. P. W.
Answer—It can't. You must
beave your money in. That provi-
gion was included so that proflig-
te employees would not be pen-
— when superannuated. If you
ve reached minimum retire-
ment age, and have earned quar-
fer-pay pension, which would
Bot happen until you'd worked for
Bhe City for at least 25 years, you
gould withdraw from your annu-
By account the excess over the
f@mount that would finance quar-
ber pay annuity. That is the sole
exception,
I NOTICED in one of your col-
@mns that the writer did not
think there was any chance of
Bepealing the State constitutional! 11
amendment safeguarding pension
rights, but I do not remember the
exact nature ef those rights.
P. LD,
Answer — The constitutional
provision, Article V, Section 6,
states: “Membership in any pen-
sion or retirement system of the
Btate or of « civil division thereof
shall be a contractual relation-
ship, the benefits of which shall
not be diminished or impaired.”
‘The point being discussed In the
column was correlation of the
State Employees Retirement Sys-
tem with Social Security, and|™
Governor Dewey's remarks that a
constitutional amendment may be
necessary, to provide basis equi-
table to employer and employee.
Any repeal would not affect pres-
ent but only future members.
