Not Sent To

Speolat to Pho LRADER

ALBANY, April 2—The Associa-
tion's bill to provide retirement
after 25 years of service or at the
age of 60 for uniformed prison
personnel in the State Department
of Correction institutions was
passed by both the Senate and
Assembly. However, the Senate
did not pass Assemblyman Leslie
G. Ryan's bill and the Assembly
did not pass Senator John Con-
don's bill, so the proposal did
not go to the Governor for his
consideration.

There seemed to be a general

disposition on the part of the)

Legislature to view favorably the
Association's proposals for liberal~
ization of the State retirement
system along substantial lines, but
there was also @ definite wish to
await more information from the
State Comptroller as to the costs
to the State and to the municipal-
ities that are members of the
system, The State alone was in-
yolved in the Conden-Ryan bills,

but approval would be followed by
requests from municipal groups,

The action of the Senate and
Assembly in passing the 25-year
proposal for Prison Guards is a
distinct step toward this goal and
wus due in large measure to the
activity of the special committee
of prison employees headed by
William Paterno, which presented
& detailed study of costs as made
by George B, Buck, Actuary of
the State Commission on Prisons.

In conference with Dr, Prank
L. Tolman, President of the Asso-
clation, Governor Dewey stated
that he would request State
Comptroller Frank ©, Moore and
retirement system officials to make
a complete study during the com-
ing year of the proposals of the
Association to Mberalize the re-
tirement system. The various
bills of this year for increased
minimum allowances, increased
death benefit, 55 year retirement,
and vested rights, failed of ap-

proval,

in the present law arising
from the fact that In some cases
an employee who receives such @
partial increment would have been
eligible to receive a full increment
in his old position if he had not
been promoted. This amendment
remedies the situation by provid-
ing that an employee who is pro=
moted shall, in all cases, receive
@ full increment on or before the
first day of the next fiscal year.

Tem Service

porary

(3) Liberalization of the law
with respect to Increment credit
for temporary service when the
employee receives a permanent
appointment, The present law
provides that an employee who
has credit for such service upon
his permanent appointment if he
is appointed to the same or @

similar position. Consequently, if -

a clerk is appointed on a tempor-
ary basis at $1,200 and serves for
three years, receiving three $100
increments, she is eligible to re=
ceive $1,500 upon her permanent
appointment as a clerk, but would
have to take a reduction to $1,200
if she receives a permanent ap=
pointment as a stenographer. This
bill corrects this situation by per-
mitting the temporary service to
be counted for increment purposes
if the appointment Is to any posi-
tion in the same occupational
service and salary grade. This bill
has the enthusiastic support of
the Association and will do much
to improve the administration and
operation of the Feld-Hamilton
Law.

CIVIL SERVICE FEAT STRESSED

It is fortunate that two important recent books on the internal
@dministration of the League are now available and that a review)
of both appears in the Winter 1946 issue of the Public Administration
Review, From the review:

“Probably the best thing that the League of Nations was able to
@o was to demonstrate conclusively the feasibility of establishing a
truly international civil service—of assembling and organizing a
group of highly competent officials and employeés owing exclusive
loyalty to the international organization itself, having a remarkable |
esprit de corps and capable of taking a completely unbiased point of
view in the consideration of problems in which the interests of the
countries, of which they were themselves nationals might be in-
volved,”

‘The failure of the League (and they were many and momentous)
was not because of any failure of its civil servants, They were
in general due to jack of support of the member states. |

Could the League have succeeded if the tables had been turned,
if the nations had stood firm in support of world peace, but the |
secretarial had been politically minded and partisan? The answer
4s obviously “n |

‘The UNO will need a Civil Service at least equal in ability and
in devotion to that of the League. The needed qualifications are
unbelievably difficult, as for example ability to read, write and speak
diuently some fifty languages and dialects. |

. The UNO will need to adopt the 3 ruling principles of an inter-
ational career civil service: |

1, Devotion to the preservation of peace through interna-
tional collaboration as a sine qua non in appointments.

2. Salary scales generally higher than prevail in the civil
service of the member states.

3. A liberal pension plan specifically devised to attract men
and women to devote the best, but not the most, years of their}
lives to international service. |
‘As believers both in the merit system and in the UNO, we urge

the member nations, the delegates, the Secretary General and the
Personnel Officer of the UNO to adopt a model civil service system,
6o that the best may serve the cause of peace.

NYC Reclassification
Would Remedy a Mess

HE much-needed reclassification for NYC personal

service, to put titles and duties in their proper places,
is being backed simultaneously, although independently,
by the Civil Service Reform Association and the Citizens
Budget Commission. Mayor O’Dwyer is interested. So
the prospects seem bright.

It would help if the employee organizations would
get behind the project.

All who have studied the subject know that the pres-
ent classification is a mess, How anybody can oppose
cleaning up a mess is hard to understand,

What some employees may fear is that a reclassific-
tion would result in downward revision of some pay
seales, Certainly it would. The rule is that NYC em-
ployees are underpaid. The exception is that some are
overpaid. However, even the Budget Commission, an
unofficial body, is in sympathy with protecting salaries
of incumbents. The small percentage of downward re-
visions would then affect new incumbents only. The vast
majority of pay changes involved in a related salary
standardization would be upward.

ROBERT R, HOPKINS

ONE OF the sparkplugs of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees is Robert R. Hopkins,
completing his third term as
President of the large Buffalo
Chapter this June. His chief in-
terest outside of his important job
as manager of what is probably
the largest unemployment insur-
ance office ip the world, with some
32,000 claimants, is working to-
wards a liberalization of the State
Retirement System,
His fluent talks on the pension
system and other State employee
topics have made him sought-
after as a speaker, He was char-
acterized by the stenographer at
the last Association meeting as
“the fastest speaker on the pro-
gram.”

Matter of Inheritance
His interest {n employee prob-
Jems is a family trait. His father,
James E. Hopkins, was a pioneer
labor organizer for the AFL
United Brotherhood of Carpenters
and Joiners and covered 44 States
in his long years of service with
that union. A brother, Herbert
M., recently finished his third
term as Secretary-Treasurer of
the largest local of International
Order of Machinists.
Prior to entering the State
service, Bob Hopkins worked for
Postal Telegraph and Western
Union, supervised more than 600
workers for the N.Y.A. was a
Postal clerk and did sales work,
He started with the State in 1937,
He modestly describes his hob-
bies as “family, Insurance, people,
reading.”

His Philosophy

His philosophy of labor relations
de summarizes as:
“Economic security is not the
only objective of a worker. He
must also have what might be
called moral security which in-
volves the personal integrity of
an individual in a work-situation,
and springs from a respect of
function and reciprocal respect of
superior and subordinate.”

Attendance Rule
Action Is Sought

Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, April 2—The State
Association has again appealed to
the Civil Service Commission to
establish definite attendance rules
for State department service.
The Association has appealed
for reestablishment of the 4-week
vacation and a definite number
of days for religious observance
for all State employees,
It has also urged the immediate
adoption of the same hours for
office workers in institutions as
apply to the departmental service.
The matter of closing all offices
on Saturdays, at least during the
summer period, with any adjust-
ment of hours necessary to assure
full carrying on of the service to
the people, has also been urged.
Delay Is Deplored

y

The Civil Service Department
has indicated that meetings are
now in progress at which con-
sideration is being given to the
omulgation of rules under the
law sponsored by the Association
in 1944 authorizing the Commis-
sion to establish uniform attend-
ance rules covering all State serv-
ices,

An Association spokesman today
stated:

“The emergency help condition
which existed during the war is
clearing up rapidly and there
seems no longer any need for
withholding the establishment of
definite, Uberal rules covering
hors, vacations, religious holidays
and other leave rules,

Civilian Jobs

Based on Military Rank

Spocini to The LEADER

WASHINGTON, April 2.—The
Civil Service Commission's new
Government job application form
asks 5 different questions about
the service ranks of veterans seck-
ing jobs.

Question 36 asks the applicant's
“grade or rating at the time of
separation” from military service.

‘The same question asks the ap-
plicant's serial number — which
also could serve as & means of
determining his rating.

And Question 17 asks about his
former rating 3 times,

Some veterans immediately
Jumped to the conclusion that
the new questions were designed
to make sure that servicemen
were placed in civilian Govern-

this emphatically, and issued the
following statement:

Spocial to The LEADER

WASHINGTON, April 2.—The
House sub-committee voted the
following recommendations on the
U. 8. pay bill:

1, A flat 17 per cent increase,
instead of the lower scale adopted
by the Senate.

2. Double pay for employees who
work on holidays, Instead of time-
and-one half. As the rules now)
stand, the employee who does not}
work on a holiday gets one day's
pay. The employee who does work
gets one and a half-days’ pay. |

3. A 10 per cent pay differential |
for all night work. At present
this differential can be paid for
only 5 days of the week, and can-
not be paid for night work that
falls on a holiday.

4. Special raises for employees
in Grades 9 and 10 of the Crafts,
Protective and Custodial Service.
These workers were omitted from
a CPC pay raise bill approved by
Congress in 1942. The sub-com-
mittee’s plan would grant them |
raises of $210 per year to make)
up for the omission. Then it
would add the 17 per cent on top
of that.

The sub-committee voted to re-
tain the present $10.000 ceiling on
Government executive salaries.

of the executive salary scale, In-

after military service in accord-
ance with provisions of the Selec-
tive Training and Service Act
(and other statutes and regula-
tions providing for restoration)

fit of both the 1945 pay raise bill!

House to Act

be to give them this raise first—

20 per cent on the first $1,200 of
their pay; 10 per cent on the next
$3,400; and 5 per cent on the
rest, Then the 185 per cent in-
crease would be added on top.

For a $10,000-a-year man this
would bring a jump of $12,875.
A $12,000 man (there are only a
few) would get $15,345. And the
$15,000 Cabinet officer would get
$19,078.

Other Recommendations

The committee also recom-
mended:

1, Double pay, instead of the
Present time-and-one-half pay,
for Federal employees who work
on_ holidays,

2. Raises of $210 for workers in
Grades 9 and 10 of the Crafts,
Protective and Custodial Service
—with the 18.5 per cent in addi-
tion. The $210 would make up
for the fact that these emoplyees
were omitted from a 1942 pay
raise bill,

3. The choice between time and
one-half pay and compensatory
time off for employees who “occa
sionally” work overtime, Previ-
ously, employees got this choice
only if they worked more than
eight hours of overtime.

4. Eighteen and one-half per
cent increases for Congressional
and judicial employees. Also,
Congressional workers would get
a Small additional increase. They
now get a 10 per cent bonus, in
eu of overtime pay, on the first
$2,900 of their salary. Under the
Committee bill the bonus would
be made permanent, and the $2,-
900 limit would be removed,

Representative Jennings Ran-
dolph, committee chairman, sald
he hopes to get the new bill to the
floor of the House on Wednesday.

military substitutes must
dropped when the regular incum:

| jobs may pay less than the sub:
stitute spots.

| In other cases, existing provi-
sional employees had been given
provisional promotions to higher
to fill military vacancies.
| Then, when the regular employee
|reported back, the former provi-
sional promotee had to get back
old position and pay.
However, in these cases, the dis-
placed employee receives full in-

" Pay Cut

Proves False Alarm

Reports were rampant among
the 13,000 provisional» emp\ovees
of New York City that they had
recgived a pay cut of $120, but
what
happened, accordirig to the City

Also, one of the large City de~
partments misinterpreted the in-
structions of the Budget Bureau
on this matter, so that provi-
sionals lost increments on return
to thelr original Jobs, but correc-
tions are being made in any cases
where employees have suffered.

Purther evidence that the re-
ported pay cuts were a false alarm
-|is derived from these facts:

With the pending promulgation
of a new Clerk, Grade 2 list, re-
ports were circulated that many
provisional Clerks, Typists and
Stenographers In Grade 1 would
~| be cut from $1,560 to $1,440. The
Commission {s planning to certify
persons on the pending Grade 2
lst to Grade 1 positions at $1,440,
‘These appointees will replace pro-
visionals receiving $1,560, but
there was no cut in provisionals’
pay. The practical effect of the
promulgation of the new list
would necessarily be to force the
discharge of provisionals, as the
Civil Service Law provides that
the provisionals must be replaced
within 10 days by competitive
civil service appointees.

Navy Yard Vets to Get
Right to Appeal Ratings

Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, April 2—Vet-

erans who complain that unfair

efficiency ratings have forced them
out of jobs in Navy yards and
similar plantg may soon get rellef
from the Civil Service Commis-
sion.

A forthcoming Civil Service or-
der will give all such veterans the
right to appeal to the Commis-
sion.

However, the new ruling will
apply only to per diem veterans
—and others not covered by the
standard Government efficiency
rating system,

Government white collar em-
ployees already have the right of
appeal to the Commission if they
think thelr ratings are unfair.

Blue collar, per diem workers,
however, can now appeal only to
thelr own agency.

Effect of Rating

If a veteran gets an efficiency
rating of less than Good, he's in
the same boat as non-veterans
when it comes to layoffs. However,
if his rating js Good or better
he holds his job until all non-
veterans in his particular unit
have been laid off,

Many veterans, particularly
those in Navy yards and similar
establishments where layoffs have
been unusually heavy, have com-
plained that their ratings have
been unfairly forced down to the
less-than-Good point.

Incidentally, it will a) only
to veterans. For non-vel the
only appeal will continue to be to
the agency. Civil Service
Commission has authority under
the preference act to extend its
appeal system to former service
men. But it lacks the authority
to do the same for non-vets,

Vets Can Complete
High School Course

A special department to enable
veterans to complete their high
school education, to be able to
qualify for college training under
the G.I, Bill of Rights, has been »
set up by the American School.

tails of this home study training

New Wage Policy
Begun by NYC

(Continued from Page 1}
rates averaging 55.5 cents | *
an hour higher, or about
$320,000 a year more. This
averages more than $15 a
week net increase per em-
ployee. The back pay differ-
ential ranges in general
from $3,500 to $5,000 for
each of the 400 men. The
men, although on a per-diem
basis, are guaranteed a mini-
mum of 250 working days a
year.

The policy change consists of
meeting half way the demands of
Jaborers, workmen and mechanics
engaged on public works, instead
of opposing the claims at every
turn and dragging them out for
years, sometimes as long as for
nine years of costly litigation.

by Joseph

While the policy applies only
to employees covered by Section
220 of the State Labor Act, which
requires NYC to pay to such work-
ers the prevailing rates paid by
private industry for the same
work, the change is believed to
foreshadow a general change in
NYC pay policy from a narrow,
technical basis to a lberal one.

The new policy was proposed
by Comptroller Joseph and met
with the full approval of Mayor
O'Dwyer, who, with Budget Direc-
tor Thomas J. Patterson, actually
made the settlement. The Mayor
had held conferences with several
union leaders before the terms
were finally agreed upon.

depending on the nature of the
work, whether construction- or
maintenance, a distinction that a
Court of Appeals case in the Wat-
kins case permits the city to make,
if it can prove the reality of main-
tenance, as against construction
work. This old bone of contention
is now eliminated.

No More 10 per cent Deduction

Also the employees are to suffer
no deduction on account of the
city’s contribution on their behalf
to the pension account, nor pay
deduction for “holidays or vaca-
tons. These particular points
followed n recent decision of the
Court of Appeals, holding that the
provisions of Section 220 were ab-
solute, and the deductions,
amounting to 10 per cent for
these purposes, that the city used
to make, were unauthorized by
Jaw (Ralph Giannettino vs, Mc-
Gokdrick)

The $2,000,000 differential back
pay represents a compromise of
the back-pay differential claims
at 50 per cent of the full con-
struction rate.

ing rate of has changed

during the period covered by the
claims, hence a good deal of work
has to be done in the Comptrol-
ler’s office to ascertain just how
much each man should get.

Tt is expected that payment of
the back-pay differential will not
be made in much less than six
months, or by about Sept. 1. The
regular addition to current pay
checks because of the increased
rates probably will begin with the
July 1 pay roll, although retro-
spective as to amount to yester-
day. Thus for about three months
the payroll will carry checks
equalling the old rate. Next comes
@ pay check with the higher weekly
draw included, plus the current
increase as accumulated for 13
weeks. In three monthhs more
comes a weekly pay check plus
$3,500 to $5,000!

Seven-hour Day Now

Besides compromising the back-
pay issue, the men also agreed
to accept a seven-hour work day,
although most of them had been
working eight hours a day. How-
ever, the pattern followed was
that found generally in private in-
dustry, not only as to rates, but
as to number of hours a day,
which in industry are seven. The
men accepted the seven-day
status. This doee not preclude the
city, however, from having the
men work eight hours, when neces-
sary, and for which they will be
paid at the new hourly rate for
the extra hour,

‘The seven-hour day makes the
$320,000-a-year estimate of the
increase applicable, for a con-
tined eight-hour basis the amount
would have been about $375,000.

The varying prevailing rates of
previous years were also stand-
ardized at the new settlement
rates, Carpenters and Electricians
had claims of varying rates dat-
ing back 11 years, while Painters
and Plumbers went back eight
years.

Payroll Protest Waived

Whether or not the claimants
signed the pay roll under protest
is made immaterial for claims
covering periods from Jan, 1, 1938
forward, but claims for any prior
period will be checked for protest
of payroll. By law the city may
require that the payroll be signed
under protest before settling a
claim. Thus this term of settle-
ment also represented a compro-
mise, by dividing the period.

Whether or not an employee
filed a claim will be affected by
the same rule, i.e. no claim need
to have been filed for the period
beginning Jan. 1, 1938, but one
must have been filed to collect
for the any prior period, and in
addition, of course, the payroll for

UrgedonO' Dwyer

Ellis Ranen Dies;
Was a Leader in

Dewey to ‘Heed Plea
That Vet Division Jobs

By Reford Group :

Mayor William O'Dwyer was
urged by the Civil Service Reform
Association to recommend the

inclusion in the city budget of «| has there

special appropriation of $100,000
urgently needed for a survey of
Positions in the NYC service based
on actual duties performed and
responsibilities assumed by the
180,000 employees of the city, in
& letter addressed to the Mayor by
Charles Burlingham, Chairman of
its Executive Committee, and H.
Eliot Kaplan, its Executive Secre-

tary.

Stating that “no scientific over-
all survey of the city's personnel
has been made, at least not within
the last 25 years,” the letter to
the Mayor supports the Municipal
Civil Service Commission's budget
request for the special appropria-
tion as “an essential expenditure
in placing the City personnel sys-
tem on a sound basis.”

Present Condition Haphazard

Classification of the city serv-
ice has been “haphazard and w
scientific,” the Association al-

25.

“Neither the Commission nor
any other city agency has ever
been granted sufficient authority

and financial means
general survey of the “Cui net oars
fee, ." the letter set forth. “Neither
ever been developed a
uniform pay plan based on the
principle of equal pay for equal
work performed, A sound pay
plan for the City government can
hardly exist without complete
inventory of positions.

Neglect in providing scientific
classification of the service and
a sound pay plan, states the let-
ter, has led to gross inequities
among employees and unreason-
able distinctions between positions
with substantially similar duties,

Real Economy Expected

Responsible city officials would
be able through a classification
survey to re-examine the person-
nel needs of the City departments,
the letter states, and if objectively
applied and administered would
result in real economy of admin-
istration and improved morale of
the City's employees.

“We believe,” the letter con-
cludes, “the special appropriation
sought will prove a good Invest-
ment for the City taxpayers and
that its results will rebound to the
credit of your administration.”

such prior period must also have

All the gains are effective as of
yesterday, but action by the Board
of Estimate is necessary, for modi-
fication of the 1945-46 budget,
covering the period from yester-
day until June 30 next and for
raising the money to pay the past
differential. Then the funds to

certain, especially since the Mayor
and the Comptroller have taken
part in the settlement, and in-
dorse it wholeheartedly, and other
Board members were consulted
and indicated that they would
vote favorably.

Practically all the employees
concerned are on a_ per diem
basis. About a dozen Electricians
and Plumbers who had accepted
@ per annum basis under the La
Guardia administration, although
against the advice of union lead-
ers, have now reverted to a per
diem basis. The argument that
@ per annum basis assured a
minimum of 250 working days a
year disappears under the terms
of the settlement, which guaran-
tees them that number of days.
It is expected that the effect of
the settlement will finally result
in skilled, semi-skilled and un-

The end of per-annum employees
in the laborer-workman-mechanic
groups is believed in sight. The
agreement, however, covering the
four titles is applicable pas to
the men concerned, and the any
wider application would have to
be the result of new developments,
‘There are almost 13,000 ‘Cc em~
Ployees affected by Section 220.

The city, in making the settle.
ment, took full cognizance of the
fact that it requires a higher de-
gree of skill, and greater variety
of skill, of its laborers, workmen
and mechanics than does private
industry, and that the men in
these categories in city employ
have a most excellent performance
record over the years,

U. S. PREFERENCE

WASHINGTON, April 2—The

Army and Navy Bulletin, an un-
official publication for ex-service
men, calls the present preference
system an “insult” to the veteran's
intelligence. It suggests that vet~
erans be given absolute preference
for Government jobs,

The Bulletin says:

range $1,500 to $2,100; Village of
Pleasantville, salary range $1,404
