Regrettable Tactics

T is a perversion of the Conflict of Interest Law to hold

that a Federal employee may be prosecuted criminally
for helping a former employee to get back «a job from
which he was dismissed.

Though the Department of Justice may find some
narrow technical basis for its ruling that prosecution ap-
plies, Congress never had any such intention, and the in-
tent of Congress must govern, As we pointed out in an
editorial in last week's Leader, issue of December 25, a
fast remedy is needed—enactment by Congress of an
amendment to safeguard employees who help other em-
ployees in that way.

It is common practice for unions to wage efforts to
obtain reinstatements, so that the Department of Justice's
ruling, besides being unrealistic, is a blow to unions.

Resort to technicalities in relation to activities of
employee groups is growing. New York City, usually for-
ward-looking in such matters, has recently contributed
to the chaos,

Remedy Worse Than The Ailment

By an order of Mayor Robert F. Wagner City em-
ployees may be granted time off to discuss departmental
personnel matters before official City boards and depart-
ments, but only in relation to departmental matters. The
heads of various union locals are City employees. They
may discuss only such matters as relate to employees of
the department in which they work. Does this conserve
City time if employees from a dozen different depart-
menis must be granted authorized time off, when one
spokesman would suffice, if he could cross departmental
lines?

The rivalries of competing organizations has resulted
in crude resort to technicalities, and unnecessarily foment-
ed much trouble. The bull in the china closet can do a
lot of damage but the china closet endures as an in-
stitution, while the bull does not.

A case may be made out for technical compliance,
in the Feedral and City cases, and in State and other
local jurisdictions as well. But so long as public officials
ignore the necessity for substantial justice, for solutions
that are fair and equitable, even if not necessarily over-
liberal, employees themselves, as organization members,
suffer and government renders itself a disservice that it
will live to regret.

Better Hours for All

HE 40- hour week having been fairly well established

in State and local governments, the n «t move is
toward the 35-hour week, About 20 percent of the states
have it already, as do many corporations. Such division is
natural in the early stages, but the definite trend is toward
85 hours for all,

The difficulty arises in applying any liberalization
generally, Even in maximum 40-hour public jurisdictions,
many office employees work $7'4 hours, and it would be
easicr to get their hours reduced to 35 at the expense of
others, But the others are equally entitled to benefit, and

include employees of institutions, and police and fire for-

cos, all of whom encounter the greatest obstacles to ob-
taining a reduced work-week,

The liberalization must be made applicable to all,
ultimately, even if current financial consideration might
require a staggered basis of universal effectuation as a

puuler ‘

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR

ee ee er ee

NEED OF RETROACTIVE
SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFIT
Editor, The Leader,

T commend Deputy State Comp-
troller Willinm M, Girden on his
letter published in the December
18 Leader, presenting the respec-
tive moncy values and the marked
superiority of his plan of Social
Security supplementation over in-
tegration,

It should be made clear that
under supplementation no reduc-
tlon of State Retirement System
benefits will exist If the employee
pays his Social Security contribu-
tions (1956 maximum is $84 a
year) in addition to his present |
retirement deductions.

May I suggest that Mr. Girden
do an equally good Job of prepar-
ing flgures for The Leader show-
ing Ue amount of reduction in
the monthly Social Security Re-
tirement benefits of each employee
which will result In New York
State does not make Social Secur-
ity coverage retroactive to at least
January 1, 1956, Available figures
show & potential 5.5 percent aver-
age reduction in the monthly So-
cial Security Retirement benefits
for the employee now 43 years old,
12 percent for the employee now
age 54, and 32 percent for the
person new 62 years of age, if
such retroactive coverage is not
entablished,

If retroactive coverage is estab-
lished; each dollar so invested by
the State will prevent an average
loss after retirement of $20 for
the employee now 62, $8 for the
person now 54 and $3.60 for the
employee now 43, without count-
ing additional loss of spouses
benefits’ ete, and with smaller
losses to younger persons.

To calculate the total that each
person stands to lose on this basis
during his retirement, just mul-
tiply each figure by $178.50, the}
maximum coxt per person.

Law Cases

Counsel Sidney M, Stern report-
ed to the New York City Civil
Service Commission on law cases
hy follows:
| Appellate Division, First
Department

Monroe v. Patterson, The court
affirmed unanimously the order
of Special Term dismissing the
petition, The petitioner was dis-
missed as railroad clerk after he
persistently refused to undergo #
physical examination to determine
his fitness for the Job, Special
Term held such refusal was in-
subordination and that he was
Jawfully removed from service.

Bergerman y. Wagner, Petition-
er sought to compel the Mayor
and Commissioner of Purchase to
reveal the extent of the inventi-
gation made ax to the qualifica-
ons of a person appointed us di-
rector of purchase, The qualifca-
tions for the exempt position are

escribed in the City Charter
and th is alleged ihe appointee

THE METHOD USED by local

wavernments to train persons for
hard-to-fill Jobs has been sticcess-

ful, the Civil Service Assembly
reports,

In New York State an examin-
ation will be held next year for
bank examiner trainee. College
graduates, or those who will have
a dogree by June, 1957, are eligible
for the training program being
offered by the State Banking De-
partment and certain designated
banks. Those chosen will spend
the first year actually working in
a bank and the second in one
of the five district offices of the
department, While at the bank,
the trainee must conform to the
bank's employment rules on at-
tendance, working hours, and
conduct, although his salary
comes from the state.

Detroit's Experiences

The training division of the
Detroit, Mich,, Civil Service Com-
mission says that more than one-
third of the City’s employees had
Job training Inst year, Bricklayers,

| Public Administration

machinists, plumbers and elecs
triclans were included, as well as
workers In more specialized felds,
such as hospital bill collectors
and auto body repairmen. By
training young persons, the City
maintains a staff of skilled works
ers in areas of acute shortages,
Without the training programs,
Detroit would find it almost tm-
possible to operate iis power and
water pumping plants, the As
sembly adds.

Santa Monica's Incinerator

Santa Monica, Calif, trained
workers for a municipal inciner=
ator even before the plant was
built, according to the Assembly.
Otherwise interested persons em-
ployed by the department spent
a day with the inspector on the
job during the building of the
incinerator plant. If interest was
maintained, the employee stayed
with the program, This method
not only provided a skilled staff
for the completed installation, but
created a reserve ready to fill
vacancies, says the Assembly.

DEBATE STILL RAGES OVER
25-CENTURY-OLD PARADOXES

ZENO, a Greek mathematician, propounded four paradoxes more
than 25 centuries ago, and they are still being debated,

He left no written record of the paradoxes, but in the same cen-
tury Aristotle, another great Greek mathematician, inclided them
in rhetorical form in his “Physica.”

Zeno made positive statements, but he did not swear to them
before a notary, and there is reasort to believe he had his profound |
tongue in his cheek?

THE FIRST ARGUMENT
Prom Aristotie (Zeno speakinu)
“The First Argument, Dichotomy

of patring):
“The first is the one on the non-existence of motion, on the

ground that what moves must always attain the middle point sooner
than the end point,

This means that the moving object when it arrives at the mid-
point has half the distance yet to go, when it reaches half the re-
maining distance, has one-quarter the way to go, and so on, to in-
finity, ao never “gets there.” Really, the problem challenges mathe-
maliclans to solve the elusive pairing of inflnity and continuity.

Zeno does not deny the reality of motion, but complains of the
means used {or considering motion mat!ematically.

So far his challenge bas not been (ully met, and perhaps he did
not think it probably would be, but the more important implications
have spurred rich advancement

‘The first argument, like the others, may sound plausible to the
ear but not to the mind,

THE SECOND ARGUMENT

Aristotle left out some necessary elements of the second problem,
passibly on the assumption that mathematicians would consider them
understood. However, I had added them in futl face type.

“The Second Argument: Achilles and the Tortoise,

“The second iy the so-called Achilles, It consists in this, that
in a race between two competitors in which the slower is given a
head start, and in which each advances at his ewn uniform pace,
the slower will never be overtaken in its course by the quicker, for the
Pursuer must always come first to the point from which the pursued
has just departed, so the slower must necessarily be always more or
fess in advance.”

‘The second ta substantially the same paradox as the first, clever-
iy and perhaps even mischievously restated.

‘as the Greeks called the act

Zeno well knew that the pursuer would catch up with the pur-
sued. He'd no doubt seen many handicap chariot races and he knew |
that the penalized competitor often does catch up with the recipient |
‘of the advantage, If what Zeno contended were correct, then he had |
found the secret of perpetual mortal life, To live forever, two persons |
would have to do no more than compete in a handicap race, al
it never ends.

This paradox is a repeated call for new and better mathematical |
Methods, and more accurate terminology.

Aristotle Caught Zeno at It

Zeno emphasized space, but he deliberately slighted time, to
theow the unwary, and even the wary, off the track, But Aristotle |
spoterd that quickly, and in the first sentence of his own comment
sald “Time and space are divided into the same and equal divisions.”
He iso exposed Zeno's abuse of terms. The word “infinite” has two
different applications, one to number, the other to time or space,
‘The two are not interchangeable. Infinity of munber cannot even be)
@rasped by the mind, but infinity of division can be, because it ap-
proaches a timit,

While Aristotie took the Zeno paradoxes literally, others see in
them a symbolism that rises above the fallacies to which the Eleate
genius appeared to subscribe.

Zeno’s argument was that the sum of an infinite series must it-
self be infinite, Aristotle held the araument was fallacious, as we!
know it was,

Aristotle might have added that. since the distance between the
twe competitors finally becomes infinitely small, so does the thme it
takes Arhilles to cover that distance, hence the two are equal, and
the contestants come abreast.

Numerical Version

The Achilles takes its name from the fuct the problem was also
presented ax # race between Achilles and a tortoise, and may be
expressed thus:

“Achilles runs a race with # tortoise who Is given a 297-foot
handicap. Achilles runs 30 feel in one second, the tortoise 0.3 In
one second. Achilles will never catch up with the tortoise.”

But in each second Achilles gains 29.7 feet on the tortolae, To
overcome the 297-fo0t handicap will take him 297/29.7 seconds, equaly
10 seconds, How far would he have to rin to catch tip? At 30 feet a
second, in 10 Leconds he would 20x10 feet equals 300 feet

By the time Achilles gets to the point where the tortoise started,
the tortoise has gone 1/100 of the handicap, or 297 feet; when
Achilles ix at tho second position the tortoise tefl, the tortoise bas

Jone 1/100 of 2,97, or 0.0297 fect. This,
0.000297 the sum of which is 200,

‘Today we reduce auch a case to an evanescent sequence in which
every torm has @ successor, Dividing distance in half, then in half
again. ele, we get by, 4, 1/68 which we call a geometric progres-
ston that Approaches Las a limit. ‘Though the sum can nover exceed 1,
ft can and does equal 1 at finality. This té further proof that the sum
of an infinite series can be Anite.

THE THIRD ARGUMENT

Again quoting Zeno via Aristatie
“The Third Argument: "The Arrow

Summary

All four paradoxes have these factory in common: (1) a move
ing body; (2) time-space; (9) the infinite: (4) eontinuity.

Zeno made the Greek mathematicians take notice of reality, By |
invoking time, space, motion, continuity, and infinity, Zeno may)
have payed the way for the formulation of the infinite by Cavaliers
the aggregate by Galileo (1638), the calculus and the infinite
series by Newton and Lelbnite (1677), the special theory of relativity
by Binsteln (1905), the general theory of relativity by “instein
(1916), and the unified Meld theory by Binsteln (1929), But same of

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31 — The
arguments-for and against a 35-
hour week for Federal employees
will be debated in Congress,

Senator William A. Purtell (R,,

Conn.) will Introduce a bill calling
for a 35-hour, five-day week, but

adds that the principal reason ts to
bring out all the facts, He favors
& shorter work-week. He notes
that it is gaining favor In private
industry and feels that it i# tn-
evitable finally, both in private
and public empioy.

He named 20 states, including

| his own. in which public employ-
cos have work-weeks of less than
40 hours.

Problems in connection with a
shorter work-week Include leaves
and overtime rates,

Employee groups are backing a

State Hiring Rate Stiil Lags

For each of the Inst 6 years the State Department of Civil Servier
has conducted a Hiring Rate Study of beginning level positions which}
Includes such Jobs as Clerk, Stenographer, Carpenter, Truck Driv
er, ete.

We regularly analyze these studies from two points of view. First
and of greatest importance Is the relationship of the hiring rates
themselves between private industry and the State because it is these
rates that determine the ability of an employer to hire, Second, we
look at the relative rates of change. This will tend to measure whether
it ts easier or harder for an employer to hire,

The study shows that in only one category is the State equal
to the labor market, In all other occupations the State is below the
| hiring rate by from 4 to 21%. On the average the state ts about 19%
| behind, according to this study. The following is a table that shows

OYEES ASSOCIATION, INC,

The hiring rate study is only one of several measurement tech-
niques in determination of the adequacy of the State's level, but it
provides students of the subject with an objective measurement

As we have pointed out previously there has been » sharp Increase
in the application of the variable minimum. In light of what the
hiring rate study shows we understand better why.

The hiring rate study has been conducted for 6 years, Hach year
shows the State behind private employment, This consistent deficiency
calls for the State to place itself in better adjustment to the Jabor
market by a general pay raise.
