will be the first revision
book since the City took
subway lines, Most im-
t to the employees is the
new rule on increments,

T oming increment regula-
tion provides benefits for transit
similar to those which
ty workers get under the
McCarthy Increment Law.

Beginning on July 1, 1944, em-
ployees of operating depart-
ments of the lines will receive
increases annually,

The annual increase to em~
ployees will average 5 cents an
hour, The employee will receive
this increase until he reaches
the top salary of his job, Fur-
ther advancement is through
promotion examinations.

> Quota Pay.

In some categories, such as
skilled maintenance men, there
is a “quota pay.” This is a spe-
cial rate earned by the men with

the highest skill at their job.
Employees in these groups may
advance by increments to the
rate just below the “quota.”
Then, when there is a vacancy
in the “quota” by promotion,
resignation or death, the man
next in line by seniority and
skill will move into the extra-
pay group.

Other Items,

new book:

ODB
Part-Time Jobs
For War Dept.

A large number of employees
are being hired on a part-time
work basis by the War Depart-
ment Office of Dependency
Benefits,

Any persons not now on the
Federal payroll—City, State,
County employees are eligible.

“The reason for the acute need
for additional personnel,” says
Brigadier General H. N. Gilbert,
ODB Director, “is the huge vol-
ume of extra work involved in
converting several million ODB
accounts in accordance with the
recent amendment to the Serv-
icemen’s Dependents Allowance
Act of 1942, increasing family
allowances to certain depend-
ents.”

Persons hired on a part-time
basis will work a minimum of
three nights a week from 5:30
to 9:30 p.m, and on the same
three nights of the week, each
week, They may choose to work
on successive nights or alter-
nate nights,

‘To expedite and simplify hir-
ing, the ODB has placed repre~
sentatives in the United States
Employment Service offices of
four key New Jersey cities: Jer-
sey City, Paterson, Newark, and
Elizabeth, The offices are lo-
cated as follows: Jersey City, at
2855 Boulvard; Paterson, at 219
Ellison Street; Newark, at 1056
Broad Street; and Elizabeth, at
1177 East Grand Street, The
ODB representatives are in these
offices from 9 A.M, to 5 P.M. on
the following days until further
notice; Jersey ity, Mondays;
Paterson, Tuesdays; Elizabeth,
Wednesdays; and Newark, every
day except Saturday and Sun

To further expedite hiring, the
Civilian Personnel Branch of the
ODB is open from 8 A.M, to 9
P.M. Mondays through “Fridays
and from 8 A.M. to 5 P.M. on
Saturdays.

The ODB is still hiring full-
time employees, General Gilbert
stated.

ice status by passing a simple

THE DRAFT
A "Break"
For Fathers?

WASHINGTON—High Federal
officials here hint that a new
attempt is in the making to give
Government fathers a break in
the draft

If necessary, it is believed,
they will appeal to President
Roosevelt over the head of

Judge Samuel I. Rosenman, who
now is .handling Federal em-
ployee draft matters for the
White House.

As pointed out in several pre-
vious articles in THE CIVIL
SERVICE LEADER, the Federal
employee stands to take a bad
beating in the father draft.

Outside Government, local
boards tend to give a “break”
to fathers in granting occupa-
tional deferments, as compared
with non-fathers—all other fac-
tors being equal. Inside Govern-
ment, however, Judge Rosenman
is insisting on the same stern
policy for fathers which gov-
erned non-father deferments.

If an appeal IS made to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, it probably will
have the tacit approval of both
War Manpower Chairman Paul
V. McNutt and Selective Service
Director Maj. Gen. Lewis B,
Hershey, In private conversa~
tion, both have expressed the
belief that the father draft will
fall very unfairly on Goyern-
ment men, if Rosenman wins
out, ‘

Here's Goad News: Looks Like Holidays
Are Coming Back for U. S$. Employees

By CHARLES SULLIVAN

WASHINGTON—Informed officials here think there
is a fairly good chance that Federal workers soon will get

their holidays back,

At present, Government ob-
serves only one national holiday
—Christmas,

‘Thanksgiving, for example,
was a work day. So was New
Year's Day, Washington's Birth-
day, Memorial Day, the Fourth
of July, Labor Day and Armis-
tice Day—all of which were
holidays in the past.

However, pressuge is mounting

to make those days vacation

days aghin. And insiders here

think prospects are good that

something will be done about.
No Uniform Policy.

Prior to Pearl Harbor, Gov-
ernment had no uniform policy
on holidays. Some agencies ob-
served them. Others didn’t.
Shortly after Pearl Harbor, how-
ever, the White House issued a

ruling which made Christmas
the only holiday at least so far
as Federal workers were con-
cerned.

In England, it is pointed out,
Civil Service employees already
have returned to the pre-war
holiday system. The government

there found it actually was los-
ing production by not giving
workers sufficient time off, Many
officials think the same thing
is happening here. Hence the
on to restore the holi-
lays.

So They Don't Fire You
In the Federal Service!

WASHINGTON—Civil Service
Commission has thoroughly
blasted the old myth which says
a Federal employee can’t
fired.

‘The Comission sent a detailed
report to the Ramspeck Con-
gressional Committee this week.

It revealed that almost three
out of every 100 Government
workers were discharged “for
cause” in the fiscal year which
ended.June 30,

Now it’s true that a certain
percentage of those reported as
discharged were employees who
simply abandoned their jobs.

Nevertheless, the Commission's
figures show conclusively that
Government actually DOES fire
incompetent workers -— contrary
reports notwithstanding,

Big Increase,

Moreover, the report indicated
that there has been a substan-
tial increase in such firings since
1938.

In that year (on the basis of
incomplete, but apparently re-
Hable figures) only .288 per cent
of all Government workers were
discharged for incompetency.

By contrast, in 1939, 814 per

cent were discharged; in 1940,
.735 per cent; in 1941, 1,031 per
cent; in 1942, 1.446 per cent, and
in_ 1943, 2.88 per cent,

In other words, the increase
since 1938 has been, approxi-
mately 10-fold.

Navy Discharges Lots,

The Commission told the
Ramspeck Committee that Navy
discharged 4.895 per cent in
1943, against 1.758 per cent in
1940.

Tennessee Vailey Authority
discharged 2.86 per cent in 1943,
against 1.395 per cent in 1940;
National Advisory Committee
for Aeronautics, discharged 9.952
per cent in 1943,
per cent in 1940,
Works Agency discharged 2.723
per cent in 1943, against .432
per cent in 1940.

Legion Asks Guarantee
Of Jobs to U. S. Veterans

Proposal Affects

War Service Posts

WASHINGTON—What about
the war veteran and Govern-
ment jobs when peace comes,

Well, already there are sig-
nificant straws in the wind.
One of them is particularly sig-
nificant—because it effects pres-
ent Civil Service workers almost
as much as it effects men in
uniform,

Briefly, here it js—

The Américan Legion is. on
record with a demand that Un-
cle Sam.offer an absolute guar-
antee of re-employment after the
war to Government's many War
Service appointees who have
gone into uniform,

This demand has taken Fed-
eral officials here somewhat by
surprise. The situation is an
unusual one for a number of
reasons,

War Service appointees are
Federal workers who were ap-
pointed after March 16, 1942.

They don’t have Civil Service
status.

Their Government jobs were
never more than temporary, In
fact, it was clearly stated that

they would last only for the
duration, plus ‘six .menths,
Ask Full Status

The Legion, however, is asking
that these veterans-be given ey-
actly the same post-war re-
employment, rights as veterans
who had full Civil Service status
when they went into uniform.

And if the Legion demand
prevails, officials say thousands
of regular, permament Civil Ser-
vice workers almost certainly
will have to be fired,

Officials here—including those
of Civil Service Commission-—are
in complete agreement that War
Service appointees now in uni-
form ought to get special treat-
ment of some sort when they
return, For the moment, how-
ever, they are inclined to stop
short of the Legion proposal,
feeling that it goes a little too
far.

On the other hand, these same
officials point out that the Selec-
tive Service Act itself says that
veterans are entitled to get their
old jobs back after the war, if
at all possible. With that in
mind, they are inclined to give

the Legion demands very seri-_

ous consideration,

RETIREMENT
Higher
Pensions?

WASHINGTON—Another ob-
stacle to increased pensions for
retired Federal employees was
removed this week.

Sen, Chan Guerney (R., 8.D.),
who blocked a previous attempt
to get the pension increase bill
through the Senate, now has
wtihdrawn his opposition, it was
learned.

‘This means that the bill—it’s
Sen. William Langer’'s S. B. 878
—now stands an_ excellent
chance of winning prompt ap-
proval in the Senate,

However, it’s chances in the
House are considered pretty du-
bious. There, important leaders
feel that such a measure prob-
ably would open the way for in-
creased pensions for veterans,
railroad workers and others,

Sen. Langer's bill would give
Federal employees who retired
beforé January, 1941, the same
retirement benefits as those who
have retired since. Also, as &
wartime measure, it would in-
crease the annuities of all Fed-
eral workers by 15 per cent,

TRAVEL
They'll Pay You
To Come to D. C.

WASHINGTON — Pro viding
Congress approves, all Federal
agencies may soon have the
right to pay the travel costs of
new employees,

War and Navy departments
already have this authority—by
virtue of recently ~ discovered
clauses in their 1940 apropria-
tion acts.

And now Civil Service Com-
mission, it is understood, is pre-
paring to ask similar powers for
other agencies. The Commission
is expected to act for a defici-
ency appropriation, which it will
divide among the various agen-
cies.

Big problem of most agencies
is that of persuading new work-
ers to come to Washington.
Authority to pay travel
should do much to overcom:
problem,

PROMOTIONS

Economy Group
May Hurt Them

WASHINGTON — The Byrd
Economy Committee is getting
ready to make the headlines
again with another sharp blast
at Government ‘agencies. The
group will call for an immediate
reduction of 260,000 in Federal
personnel.

It will criticize over-lapping
Government bureaus and agen-
cies, especially those in Agricul-
ture Department.

And, most important, it will
release sensational new charges
of too-rapid promotions in Gov-
ernment. (This comes just at a
time when a new plan is under
way to speed up promotions—
Ed.)

Advance word of the Commit-
tee's pending report leaked out
this week,

Persons who have seen it say
it charges that Railroad Retire-
ment Board promoted 42 per
cent of its employees in the first
six months of 1943.

Army's Office of Strategic
Service reportedly promoted 40
per cent.

And Central Administrative
Services promoted a similar pro-
portion.

The report will say that the
promotion average for Govern-
ment as @ whole for the six-
month period was about 20 per
cent. Old-time agencies will be
praised for granting relatively
fewer promotions.

One way or another, however,
the report seems certain to
bring Government another
chunk of bad publicity.

M ayor Promises Pay Rise to Finployees
Is Coming Through in the Near Future

By JEROME YALE

Mayor Fiorello H, LaGuardia last Sunday promised
a general pay raise to New York City employees. He
would not say precisely what the raise will be; he did,
however, indicate that it would be tied up with overtime

work by the employees.

By tying higher pay on

to additional hours of work, the Mayor ostensibly hopes
to accomplish two aims—(1) put through the raise for
some 150,000 employees, and (2) help relieve the City’s
desperate manpower shortage.

The Mayor may have been in-
fluenced by current practice in
the Federal government, U, 8S.
employees obtained a pay raise
last year through the medium of
overtime work—eight extra hours
a week.

In disclosing his plans to raise
pay in the city, the Mayor an-
nounced at the same time that
$120 and $150 increases would go
into effect on Wednesday, De-
cember 1, for some 4,000 nurses
in the Hospitals Department.
The general city-wide increase
is tentatively scheduled for Jan-
uary 1, 1944. ‘

There had, for several weeks,
been rumors that the -Aayor was
planning this move. Here's why:
1 Mayor LaGuardia called the

Commissioners together in a
secret meeting—talked pay raise
to them.
2 ‘The Mayor has several times

referred ‘to the plight of City
employees recently. It would be
hardly feasible for him to bring
up the subject if he didn’t in-
tend to do something about it.
3 He met with police and fire

representatives on the subject
of a pay raise for those two de-
partments.

~ sources,

4 He wrote a letter to an em-
ployee organization, in which
he Ninted broadly that a raise
may be on the way.

All City officials know it

would be impossible to keep
the City service going another
year without disruption if a
raise doesn’t come through,

All of these facts add up,
Most important is the meeting
of the commissioners. Those
who attended were sworn to say
nothing about it, From excellent
however, it has been
learned that the Mayor told his
men he wanted to provide a pay
raise—but it was up to them to
find the money. He asked them
to look around and see how they
could streamline activities, save
@ penny here and a dollar there,
maybe knock off some useless
jobs—and scoop out of the bud-
get enough cash to put a little
extra in the payroll each pay~
day. As a matter of fact, only
a few weeks ago, the Mayor had
sent a letter to each of his de-
partment heads for a breakdown
of the job-titles and how many
persons held them, The move
was widely interpreted as one

which would indicate sources of
financing raises,

What Kind of Raise?

What kind of a raise is it
likely to be when it does come
through? Best information ob-
tainable as The LEADER was
going to press—and don't bank
on this too much—is that it
would be a 10 percent raise, and
only in the lower brackets (pos-
sibly up to $3,000 or $3,500),
Also, it seems that those em-
ployees who get an increment
next July 1, won't be entitled to
whatever pay raise comes
through. e

In a letter which the Mayor
wrote to Ellis Ranan, of the
American Federation of State,
County and Municipal, Em-
ployees, AFL, he stated:

“T have the subject of an ad-
jutsment of splary under study
and am trying hard to do some-
thing along these lin

The union had written the
Mayor, asking that something
be done to relieve the critical
conditions of City employees
whose earnings are insufficient
to meet present day living con-
ditions.

The AFL letter also requested
participation of City employee
groups in drawing up the City's
budget for the next fiscal year.

Under the present setup, the
employees of the City have an
opportunity to be heard at pub-
lic hearings, but only after the
budget has already been drawn’
up and is being whipped into
final shape by the City Council,
and the Board of Estimate.

eligibles. The petitioners had ob-
tained an order from the Ap-
pellate Division, First Depart-
ment, requiring the Fire Com-
missioner ‘o appoint them to
the position of fireman of the
Fire Department of the City of
New York. The Fire Commis-
sioner had refused to appoint
these petitioners on September
16th, 1942, although they were
on the eligible list, Those peti-
tioners who held the draft classi-
fication 3-A were considered to
be subject to imminent induc-
tion, None of the petitioners
were in 1-A, nor were they in
the enlisted military or nayal
reserve of the United States
Forces. The Fire Commissioner
claimed that for all practical
purposes he considered the peti-
tioners to be in Class,1-A, and
that therefore he was entitled
to skip over their names on the
eligible list under the provisions
of Section 246, Subdivision 8-a,
of the Military Law.

First They Lost

The petitioners were originally
denied an order by Mr, Justice
Dineen at Special Term o! the
Supreme Court, New York Coun-
ty, to protect their civil service
rights from arbitrary action by
the Fire Commissioner.

The eligibles appealed from
the decision of Mr, Justice Di-
neen and the Appellate Division,
First Departmen unanimously
granted an order to the peti-
tioner directing that each of
them be appointed tothe Fire
Department effective as of Sep-
tember 16th, 1942 (which was
the date the Fire Commissioner
refused to appoint them and ap~-
pointed other men. from the
same eligible list),

Weht to Appeals Court

The Corporation Counsel of
the City, represented by Sey=
mour B, Quel, Assistant Cor-
poration Counsel, took an appeal
to the Court of Appeals from
the order of the Appellate Divi-
sion, The Court ruled that the
Fire Commissioner “exceeded the
discretionary power granted to
him by Section 246, Subdivision
‘T-a, of the Military Law” and
could not skip over any fire eligi-
bles unless they were actually
‘1 1-A under the Selective Serv-
ice Act, or in the Military or
Naval Reserve.

The Court modified the Ap-
pellate Division order -by ruling
that the Fire Commissioner did
not haye to automatically ap-
point the 48 petitioners, but
could select appointees pursuant
to Municipal Ciyil Service Rules
and in acordance with 'the deci-
sion of the Court. The matter
had been remitted to Special
Term, New York County, for fur-
ther proceeding which might be
deemed necessary, The decision

A

of the Court has once again
strengthened the safeguards
given to Civil Service employees
and those on eligible lists, The
Fire Commissioner's action, if
sustained, would have been a
severe blow to the merit system
because it would have opened
the door to all Commissioners
to reject eligibles from a list on
the grounds that a war emerg-
ency exists and that such eligi-
bles might not be deferred for
the duration of the war. If the
Court had ruled in favor of the
Fire Commissioner, there is no
doubt that the present city ad-

ministration would have been in
a position to make temporary
and. provincial appointments to
all vacant positions, if it desired,
Mr. Savage is expected to hold
a conference with Mr, Quel and
the Fire Commissioner within
the next week, at which time
the entire matter may be
straightened out to the satisfac-
tion of all concerned. It is to
be noted that the Court's deci-
sion specifically limited the Fire
Commissioner's right to skip only
those actually in 1-A as stated
tm the Military Law or in the
Milifary or Naval Reserve,

Law Dept. Clerks Ask 60%
Pass-Mark on Gr. 3 Test

A group of 80 clerks in the Law Department have
added their group protest to the-many complaints which
have poured in against the grade 8 clerical promotion

examination,

Representing them, the Ameri-
can Federation of State, County
and Municipal Employees, AFL,
has asked the Civil Service Com-
mission to allow all those who
made at least 60 percent on the
test to take the second part,

Last Four Questions

Among other objections to the
test, the clerks based their pro-
test on the last four questions
for which the Commission is
giving all candidates full credit,
whether or not they gave any
answer.

This, they maintain, means
that any candidate who spent

considerable time on the final
questions is being penalized.
Some of the candidates figured
they wouldn't have time to fin-
ish Question 76 and also Ques-
tions 77 to 80, so they skipped
76 and devoted time to the
others,

The one which they skipped
cost them credit. Those they
worked on represented wasted
time, They think that a ten-
point allowance and a chance to
take the rest of the examina-
tion would straighten matters,

a not, they say the Courts
will.

CLERKS
Also Wrong

Here’s another objection to
the Clerk, Grade 3” promotion
test, raised by a group of clerks
who participated in the exami-
nation.

The advertised announcement
of the examination listed the
following as the scope of the
examination: Budget, Civil Ser-
vice Matters, State Constitution
and Federal Constitution,

When the examination was
given, the only question which
had direct bearing on civil ser-
vice was number 21, they say,

Other questions dealt with
supervisory matters, trick logic,
and matters of personal judg-
ment.

“We didn’t get the examina-
tion for which we paid our ap-
plication fee,” say some em-=-
ployees. And they're considering

“legal® action to have the whole

test thrown out.
Lower Pass-Mark
Asked by Clerks

Acting at requests of clerks in
various City departments who
had’ taken the Clerk, grade 3
promotion examination, and felt
that it had been unfatr, the local
office of the State, County and
Municipal Employees, AFL, in-
terven on their behalf with
the City Civil Service Commis-
sion.

Ellis Ranen, general represen-
tative of the union, pointed out
to Commissioner Esther Brom~-
ley that she must be aware of
the general-impression of the
examination among the clerks
who took the test. .

“They think that the examina~
tion was too tricky and in)some
aspects unrelated either to their
work or the scope of the exam-
ination as advertised”, Mr. Ran-
en_ said.

The union requested that the
passing mark on the test be low-
ered to allow those who had
made 60 percent (the passing
grade was 70) to take part 2 of
the. examination.

This the union believes, would
allow a majority of those on the
borderline to compete in the rest
of the examination, and would
allow those with a reasonable
knowledge of the operations of
their department to place on the
promotional list.

As to the second part of the
test, for which no date has yet
been announced, the union sug-
gested that the questions should
be specific and deal with the
clerical work of the various de-
partments instead of essay type
questions,

While all indications are that
a tremendous flood of protests
has poured into the Commis-
Sion’s offices against the clerk,
grade 3 examination, Samuel
Galston, assistant director of
examinations, said that he had
no comments to make about it.

“We have our routine man-
ner of handling protests against
tentative key answers”, he said.
“They are turned over to a com-
mittee in the examining division
and are receiving consideration.”

The 60 percent pass-mark
figure isn’t the only one that’s
been mentioned. Others who
took the examination say that
the passing grade should be
brought down to 50 percent,

It seemed probable, as this is-
sue was going to press, that
court action may face the Civil
Service Commission unless (1)
& number of alternatives are al-
lowed on many of the questions,

and (2) the passing grade is low-
ered.

COMPTROLLER
Tough on Clerks

The Comptroller's Office is an-
other City bureau waiting for
Mayor LaGuardia to give his
OK to a bunch of promotions

The office is understaffed by
about 25 percent because of mili-
tary vacancies, That means
more work all around.

‘There are about 50 first grade
clerks in the office who are on
the list for promotion to grade 2.
Some of them have been at the
$1,200 level for the past five
years, and they can’t get in-
creases unless their promotion
is passed by the Budget Bureau.

It seems that officials in the
Comptroller's office have been
clamoring to give the employees
a break, but the powers-that-be
turn purple at the idea of pro-
moting them and making them
eligible for a $600 increase
spread over the next five years,

To make things even a bit
more difficult for the busy of-
fice, new employees are started
at a flat $1,200, without the
cost-of-living bonus of $120,
which those who started work
before July 1 are receiving. That
doesn’t make it very easy to get
more help. All in all, there are
worries at the Comptroller's.

CORRECTION

Engineman, Not
Officer

The City Civil Service Com-
mission last week denied a re-
quest, from the Department of
Correction to change the title ot
Auto Enginemen in the Depart-
ment to Correction Officer,

Im a letter to the Commission,
Commissioner Peter FP. Amoroso
of the Department of Correc-
tion pointed out that the auto
enginemen were working out of
title in his department. As they
are performing the duties of
custodial officers, he felt that
their title should be changed to
conform with their work.

The Commission refused the
request on the grounds that
there wasn't enough similarity in
the tests the men had originally
taken to allow the change.

Correction Men,
Not Whitewings |

A suggestion that. the list for
Correction Officer — Men be
made appropriate for appoin'
ments as Sanitation Man “B’
was turned down by the City
Civil Service Commission last
week.

Hyman Kirschenbaum wrote
im to the Commission with the
idea. As Sanitation wishes to

MEMBER AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS

Tuesday, November 30, 1943

We're Hoping, Butch!

E ARE pleased to hear, Mr. LaGuardia, of your
concern for the New York City employee, and your
promise to come through with a pay rise, You
didn’t say what that raise would be, Mr. Mayor—but
you know what the civil servant is facing in trying to
meet the staggering wartime price-structure,

We're rootin’ for ya this time, Butch—and make
those increases substantial!

Let's Consider New York's
Civil Service Commission

T ISN’T merely that the Grade 8 Clerk exam was a
I poor instrument for its chosen purpose. The signifi-

cant factor about this examination is what it reveals
about the Civil Service Commission, The examination is
a symptom of a condition that may be less healthy than
the citizenry of New York realize,

The Clerk Grade 8 examination would not have been
the fiasco it was if the method of its preparation, the meth-
od of “testing the test,” the primary purpose of the exam-
ination, had been kept brilliantly in mind, And if there
had been strong and objective supervision, There is rea-
son to believe that the President of the Commission knew
very little about this examination. There is reason to
believe that he did little supervision over its preparation,
or anything else about it. Beyond this, nothing in the
record indicates that he has requested of the Mayor
and Budget Director higher-quality examiners at the kind
of salary good aminers should earn,

If we may delve somewhat into the psychic interior of
the Commission’s President, we should say that he is
congenitally disposed to let well enough alone, maintain
a hands-off attitude toward many of the things that go on
in the Commission—and many things which concern the
Commission’s relations with people of the City. He would
like to sit off in a corner somewhere quietly and perform
his little tasks, and not be bothered by poking questions
from New Yorkers who want the full light of publicity
on what goes with the City’s jobs.

It seems evident that President Harry W. Marsh
didn’t know very much about the Clerk Grade 3 exam-
ination,

He didn’t know very much about the Police Lieu-
tenant list, which recently appear certainly a subject
about which the head of the City personnel agency
should be thoroughly informed.

He leaves too many items on the calendar to be held
over week after week. Is it a fear of coming to grips with
au problem?

Many months ago, a lot of supposed asphalt men got
their names on eligible lists by fraud. This attempt to
subvert the merit system should have been shouted to
the skies. But the Civil Service Commissioner was afraid;
he wanted it kept mum.

There is something seriously wrong here. This news-
paper points it out in a spirit of goodwill, but also be-
cause we deem it in the public interest.

New York City’s Civil Service Commission needs a
shot in the arm,

We intend to say more about this

Packing 48 Hours
In 5% Days

Sirs, The article on how to
improve civil service is fine, but
may I offer a concrete sugges-
tion? We Federal employees
must work a 48-hour week, How
about spreading it over 544 days
instead of 6? The 6-day week
is making everybody dissatisfied,
Last Saturday I was sick and I
took the afternoon off. I signed
out the absence sheet and to my
surprise, found that out of 160
employees in my unit, 60 were
on annual leave or sick leave
for the afternoon, I know your
interest in improving civil serv-
ice and I am certain that you
can suggest some means whereby
a 5%-day, 48-hour week could
be instituted.

Merit

HE'S BEEN WORKING for
the City since March 1, 1912,
and he hasn't ever missed a, day
or been late, That, despite the
fact that he’s a Staten Islander
and makes the long boat trip to
his office in the Department of
Sanitation, at 125 Worth Street,
Manhattan,

Another of Louis Baumann’s
distinctions is the fact that de-
spite his long years of service
with the City, he’s still alert and
on the search for new ways to
improve the payroll office of
the Department of Sanitation,
which he heads,

Should Know Many Jobs

One of his pet ideas in office
work is that every man in the
office should be able to do every
other man’s job, In his bureau,
no employee goes stale by sitting
at one desk doing the same thing
day in and day out, Every job
rotates among the staff,

For instance, each employee
of Sanitation’s payroll office gets
a chance to work at the cashier's
window. Tht acquaints him with
the problems of the department's
workers who come to the pay-
roll office,

The office also contains an
imposing array of office machin-
ery. In addition to the usual
lineup of computing machines
there are graphotype and other
reproducing machines. After an
employee has worked in the

time - off provisions were in-
Stalled. Let us know how you'd
like to have the week arranged,
Miss Gordon, and we'll be glad
to start the ball rolling for other
suggestions,—Editor,

Plight of Temporary
Post Office Clerk

Sirs: I am a temporary Post
Office clerk appointed for the
duration, performing the same
duties as all other permanent
employees, including memorizing
of schemes,

Subjected to performing all
these duties, the temporary clerk
does not receive any of the
privileges received by the perma-
nent clerk. I believe that tem-
porary clerks should receive some
protection like unemployment
insurance, also be able to par-
ticipate in some of the privileges
for the duration of the war,

I personally believe that if
temporary clerks are given the
same status enjoyed by the regu-
lars they will be contented and
the morale will be high as they
abide by the rules and regula-
tions of the Post Office Depart-

ment.

=,

well worth consideration and ad-
herence to the expressed ideas
of this article.” Also on Octo-
ber 26, 1943, this column sug-
gested broader application of the
training program among the
white collar workers. As already
cited in our last issue, the idea
has been adopted in the form
of Shipdrafting courses for New
York Navy Yard employees at
Brooklyn Technical High School.
Then, no sooner does the print
of that issue dry, the Yard comes
out with another announcement
in line with the ideas expressed
in this column, as follows:

“A special course in Person-
nel Management for the Shop
Personnel Supervisors and Senior
Shop Clerks is under considera~
tion. This course will be offered
in the defense training program
at Manhattan College and will
be-tailor-made for the shop per-
sonnel problems at the Navy
Yard. An attempt will be made
to conduct this course at a time
and place most convenient’ for
those interested.”

The Editors are mighty glad
to have had this opportunity to
contribute suggestions toward
Navy Yard progress. We would
like to carry this idea one step
further by suggesting even
broader application of these
“Tailor-Made” courses,

Another Suggestion.

We would suggest special
courses to meet the needs pecu-
liar to certain other highly spe-
cialized clerical sections in the
Yard, particularly the Accounte
ing Department , the Labor
Board, Identification Office, Per-
sonnel Section and Selective
Service Section, The courses
ought to be aimed at closer co-
ordination and correlation in
and between these departments
and the various shop offices,
since they have so much in com-
mon, and also, toward the elim-
ination of tremendous wasteful
duplication and otherwise need-
less work. In addition to the
exercise of more sound prac-
tices in Personnel Administra-
tion, there ought to be far
broader use of such time and
labor saving devices and meth-
ods such as the photostatic pro-
cess, the International Business
Machine, the Vacuum Tube
System and the Public Address
System within and between the
various offices. The training
courses should be correlated
with the use and application of
such devices and systems and
ought to include the repair and
maintenance of business ma-
chines, instruction in the most
modern business methods, na-
ture and types of modern busi-
ness equipment available and
estimation of time and labor

savings which each can accom-
plish under a given set of con-
ditions, t

—is that it was ordered by La~
Guardia as part of a deal for a
raise in pay, That raise is long
overdue—but you can be pretty
sure that if and when that raise
comes through, the only guy
who'll get credit for that “pres-
ent” is Butch himself,

months. Tsk, tsk, tsk! Whom
are they kidding? How long does
it take for a man to see that
everything isn’t as it ought to
be? Any man on the job two
months, talking with his older
colleagues, can see what's hap-
pening. A good reporter could
find out in an hour's time what
the morale situation is.

oo

EVEN THE GUYS who signed
that letter were careful not to
say that morale is high now,
They said: “We are happy to
state that the morale of the Po-
lice department has been at its
highest plane under the leader-
ship of Valentine.” “HAS BEEN”
—maybe. But what is it right
now? What can it be with men
unable to make a living? If the
men who signed that letter don’t
know how low police morale is
right now, they don’t know the
mood of their own members,
But the organization presidents
must have gagged at their own
words, for they had to add:
“Conditions arise occasionally
that cause dissatisfaction of one
kind or another, Such a condi-
tion exists at this time due to
the increased cost of living.”
Well, now, isn’t that just what
Liebman said? Why, then, this
gratuitous slap at him?

eee

ONE POLICEMAN we know
put it this way: “Here’s a mem-

ber of the PBA in trouble for
espousing the cop's cause,
Wouldn't you think the PBA
would back him up instead of
kicking him in the groin? In a
matter like this, if one is hurt,
all are hurt. Can't we depend
on our organization when we're
in trouble?

ANOTHER POLICEMAN said:
“If Pat Harnedy knows how to
write letters, why doesn’t he
write one to the Mayor to find
out why almost 900 cops aren't
getting the $400 which the Court
of Appeals decided they were
entitled to last January and
again last July?

at

A THIRD POLICEMAN said:
“If we DO get a raise in pay,
we can thank the Liebman in-
cident, because that brought our
Plight forcibly to the public's at-
tention.”

So, IF THE LINE organiza-
tions have refused to support
David Liebman, it seems as
though the policemen themselves
have rallied to his support. In
several precincts, spontaneously,
men have begun to take up col-
lections for his defense. We hear
that in_one or two cases su-
perior officers have said: No, but
we also hear that in other cases
superiors have encouraged the
move,

THEY'RE THROWING the
book—and the kitchen sink—at
Liebman. As for the first two
charges—discussing police busi-
ness and making derogatory re-
marks about a minority group—
the department may have
trouble making them _ stick.
Available witnesses are ready to
tell the side of the case which
was garbled in the first accounts,
In fact, one witness brought up
by the department itself at a

preliminary investigation at the
‘7th Division office, a Negro at-
torney, testified that Liebman’s
talk was a sympathetic, intelli-
gent. socilological discussion of
the Negro problem,

As for the ltter two chrges,
centering on the alleged dis-
courtesy of Liebman to a lieu-
tenant, Liebman’s lawyers say
there were enough witnesses to
the converstion who can testify
that Liebman wasn't discourte-
ous in the least

YOU MAY ANTICIPATE
many surprises at the forthcom-
ing trial. There may also be
several preliminary motions that
will test the legal talents of the
Trial Commissioner,

What to Do Before
A Clerk Test
Hi

e's a suggestion from
Harry Langdon, chief of the
Finance and Supply Office,
Department of Sanitation, to
prevent a recurrence of such
& muddle as the recent pro-
motion examination to Clerk,
Grade 3.

He'd have the Civil Service
Commission ‘poll,every admin-
istrative officer in the City
before giving a promotional
examination and ask each just
what. qualifications he would
demand of employees in the
job for which the test is being
given,

Then all the requirements
would be thrown into a hop-
per and would be used as the

basis of the examination,

How Can Civil Service Be Improve

The article which follows is recommended reading for ever,
administrator and every employee in a supervisory position. It
is a continuation of an essay begun three weeks ago, delving into
civil service personnel problems, Though dealing primarily with
New York State, its conclusions are applicable to Federal and
Municipal Government. The author: H. Eliot Kaplan, Executive
Secretary, Civil Service Reform Association,

Probation,

The probationary period of
service must be revitalized. 'The
mere passing of a competitive
examination is not enough to
demonstrate actual ability to
perform or capacity to assume
responsibility on the job. This
can only be demonstrated by ac-
tual performance on the job it-
self, The probationary period is
viewed much too casually by de-
partment heads. It is reall,; part
of the examination procedure
in determining the practical
value of the appointee in the
particular job, and the promise
of his capacity for more respon-
sible service in the future, It is
the department's responsibility
to guide and train the new ap-
pointee during the probationary
period, It is its responsibility to
scrutinize critically the perform.
ance of the probationer so as to
weed out the unfit and those
lacking promise; with the per-
sonnel agency, however, acting
as a safety valve protecting the
service itself from possible loss
of talent which may be directed
in other channels, if possible,

Coordination Needed

There is at the present time
little integration or coordination
of the personnel problems of the
operating departments and per-
sonnel agency's efforts. This is
due largely to the failure of the
State to recognize the need and
value of departmental personnel
officers whose responsibility it
should be first, to act as liason
men between the department
and the personnel agency in the
earlier stages of recruiting, selec-
tion, in-service training, etc.;
and, second, to be responsible for
the personnel phases of the d
partment beyond these, inclu
ing the problem of proper as-
signment of employees, handling
of employee relationships, griey-
ances, welfare, etc, To be sure,
some departments attempt to
cope with these collateral per-

sonnel problems, Few of them
have been really successful be-
cause the approach is only half-
hearted and the means inade-
quate, Personnel directors rarely
rise above the level of appoint-
ment officers with little author-
ity, and are ignored in the gen-
eral management program of the
department. The~personnel di-
rectors of the departments ought
to meet with the personnel
agency heads, and particularly
with the professional staff of the
Commission, to discuss periodi-
cally the mutual personnel prob-
lems that may arise in the hope
of effecting solutions or improve~
ment in personnel management.

The State civil service must
not be permitted to become
static, stodgy and unduly bureau-
cratic, It is, of course, essential
that we weed out the misfits and
those who do not measure up
to the proper standards or be-
come too careless in their per-
formance, It is just as urgent
to infuse new blood into the life~
stream of the public service, to
inject new vitality and bring
persons of demonstrated capac-
ity into the service to give it
elastic and more imaginative di-
recton, It keeps those in more re-
sponsible places in the service
alert and on their toes, and en-
courages @ more competitive
spirit. It helps to keep the sery-
ice out of the doldrums.

Revamping the Service

These are the major phases of
@ revamped personnel program
for the State. There are other
phases somewhat less important,
but nevertheless vital, th .t cry
for attention, Space will not per-
mit, nor is it necessary, to elab-
orate all of them. It will suf-
fice if we point to the problems
and hope to inspire thought and
attention, Among them are:

(1) Classification of Position,

strides in this direction, particu~
larly under the Feld-Hamilton
