City to Test Volunteers for Britain

More Than Eleven Occupations Qualify in New Plan; N. Y. C. Civil Service Gives Exams

Civil Service
gone “all out?

The Municipal
Commission has
for Britain.

This was disclosed when Paul
J. Kern, president of the Commis-
sion, announced that his office
would give qualitying tests to all
volunteer American technical
craftsmen for paid non-combatant
employment abroad in the Civil-
jan Technical Corps.

‘The Corps is a non-military body
of paid volunteer craftsmen in
ain skilled trades, open to
United States citizens, which has
been established by the British
Government to maintain and re-
pair highly technical equipment
used by the naval, military and
air forces of the British and their
allies,

Broadly speaking, thoroughly
experienced men from any of the
following general classifications
are eligible for membership:

Radio Mechanics and Engineers

Fitters of all kinds

Electrical Technicians

Instrument makers and re-
pairers
Watch makers and meter me-
chanics

Metal workers
Machine tool setters and oper-
ators
Wiremen and Ships’
cians
Sound Engineers
Automobile Mechanics
Ordnance and engine-room ar-
tificers.
According to President Kern,
the qualifying tests began this

electri-

Parking

The possibility of an entirely
new classification for Civil Ser-
vice employees, that of “mun
pal parking station attendants” or
some similar designation, was
opened up by Manhattan Borough
President Stanley M, Isaacs when
he proposed that the site of the
old Criminal Courts Building and

week with a group of auto me-
_chanie yolunteers being sum-
moned to appear at the Commis-
sion office, 299 Broadway, for ex-
amination,

Movie Started It

It all started when someone in
Washington, D, C., saw the Com-

mission's motion picture, ‘Merit
System Advancing,” which shows
city examiners testing skilled

trades candidates.

“You should get these people to
test applicants,” said the observ-
er.

Soon the wheels of progress
were in operation and the British
Consulate General here contacted
city officials,

The Commission subsequently
agreed to examine applicants for

the Civilian Technical Corps as
they do candidates for city skilled
trades jobs and licenses. And it
will all be done free except for
reimbursement for ‘“‘out-of-poc-
ket"” expenses.

Must Serve 3 Years

Volunteers must agree to serve
for three years, or for the dura-
tion of the war, whichever is the
shorter period. They will be as-
signed to posts in the United
Kingdom or elsewhere overseas.
Board and living quarters are pro-
vided by John Bull,

Distinctive clothing with spe-
cial insignia will be provided the
volunteers and they will receive
in addition to pay, other benefits
similar to those of’ airmen in the
Royal Canadian Air Force,

A volunteer does not forfeit his
American citizenship by joining
the Corps since he does not take
an oath of allegiance to the King,

Other provisions include that it
Uncle Sam should, at any time,
require the services of any of the
members of the Corps, the British
Government will agree to release
them immediately.

If @ volunteer passes the Civil
Service qualifying test and is ac.
cepted he will receive free trans.
portation to his point of duty in
the United Kingdom or elsewhere
and when his employment ends
will be sent back to his home
town at the expense of the British
Government,

See story “Britain Can Uso
Your Skill” on page 7.

Lot Attendant—New City Jobs

Many Opportunities Will Become Available, If Stanley Isaacs’ Idea Works Out

Tombs be converted into a city
parking space or garage,
According to the Borough Pres-
ident, various plans have been
suggested for utilizing the space
that will be available when the
Tombs and the old Criminal
Courts are torn down. He points
out that the opening of the new

buildings to replace the old
structures will attract “a great
many automobiles, city cars and
others,” and will “create a park-
ing problem.” His plan, he says
will provide space of some sort
for these cars on the site of the
old buildings.

“Dear Miss So-And-So

“If you will go up to I. J. Fox’s
Fur establishment on Fifth ave-
nue you may select any fur coat
of your own choosing up to $400
and walk out with it free. All
you have to do is get up there
and pick out the garment, There
is no strings attached to this and
you are not dreaming.”

What would you think of that?

What do you think your chances
are of ever picking up such an
offer?

Why, of course, it’s ridiculous to
even think it might happen.

But you do stand an opportunity
of getting a $400 coat at much less
odds if you are smart and enter
the Leader Beauty Contest.

Why?

Because, in the first place, the
only thing you have to do in or-
der to be in the running for that
free $400 fur coat is to send in
a photo of yourself,

Now that’s not much, is it?

Imagine, just send in a photo
and if the judges think you are
the most beautiful of the girl
Civil Service workers eligible to
enter the contest you go up and
get your coat.

‘Then, even if you don’t come out
first, you get another chance.
The runner-up gets a $200 fur
coat as second prize,

The department in which the
winning beauty works gets a sil-
ver cup. :

‘The contest is open to all Civil
Service employees—city, state, or
federal—living in New York State.
You must act NOW as the con-
test closes July 15.

You don't have to walk along a
boardwalk in a bathing suit or
anything like that. All you do is
send in a photo of yourself and let
the rest to the judges,

And men—don't you hesitate to
nominate that gal who works in
your office and is so pretty.

But you better hurry, hurry,
hurry, or you will miss the boat,
or should we say coat? All nomi-
nations—photos or names—will be
accepted if postmarked before
midnight of Tuesday, July 15,
Entries should be sent to Civil
Service Beauty Editor, 8? Duane
street, New York City.

Judges are: Newbold Morris,
President of the New York City
Council; Victor Mature, famed
screen and stage star; I. J. Fox,
eminent Fifth avenue furrier, and
Seward Brisbane, editor of The
LEADER,

A listing of all entrants will ap-
Pear next week,

Borough President has had his
draftsmen working on experimen-
tal designs for a one-story build-
ing, with parking on two levels,
which might be converted into an
air-raid shelter, There has been
no sort of official announcement,
however, on the selection of any
particular plan or design.

It is not unusual that Borough
President Isaacs should favor the
parking space plan for the area
which is to become available, On
many, occasions he has fought
against the adoption of transpor-
tation improvements which would
create additional traffic problems,

In the case of the Battery-
Brooklyn Tunnel, Borough Presi-
dent Isaacs insisted on under-
passes which would carry the flow
of traffic to and from the mouth
of the tube without adding to the
traffic volume on existing streets
and highways.

It is also known, that Mr, Isaacs,
in a large scale study of the Bor-
ough’s entire traffic problem, has
given careful consideration to the
parking problem and its large
contribution to New York's traf-
fic woes,

While insisting that he “natur-
ally” would oppose the city's en-
trance into any business where
competition with private enter-
prise woud result, the Borough
President admitted that the possi-
bility of self-supporting parking
areas conducted by the City was
one of the plans which was re-
ceiving consideration.

Paul Jerome Kern, president of
the Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission, confirmed the fact that
the position of parking station at-

tendant might shortly be avail.
able,

‘Will a new examination be
held for the job?” a LEADER 1e-
porter asked Kern,

“Probably not, though the pos-
sibility is not altogether elimi.
nated. We plan to use current
lists such as the auto engineman
list and the sanitation class A
list.”

“Men selected for the job woul
have to know something about
automobiles, would they not?”
‘Oh yes, that would be cssen-
tial, We shall have to use the
process of selective certification
to find the men on the lists who
know about cars what a station
attendant should know.” Selec:
tive certification is a process, re-
cently introduced, whereby the
Commission examines a given list
for men who may have particular
qualifications for a certain special
fob.

Moses Wants Playground

Other city officials have plans
for using the site of the Tombs
and old court building, including
Park Commissioner Moses, wlio
would like to make it another
park or playground or a combina~
tion of both,

Even then, eligibles on Civil
Service lists could look forward
to appointments if the new park
or playground idea was adopte:!

City’s Financial Methods
Are Brought Up-to-Date

A broad modernization pro-
gram of the City’s financial
methods has been completed.

‘As the new fiscal year begins,
a streamlined machine system,
designed especially to simplify in-
tricate fiscal procedures displaces
the high stools and bulky hand-
kept ledgers of “counting house
days.”

The modernization will save
$25,000 annually, according to
Comptroller Joseph D, McGold-
rick, and is the culmination of
three years’ labor by a staff of
experts under the supervision of
Joseph M, Cunningham, First
Deputy Comptroller.

As the new fiscal year began
last Tuesday, the Comptrol-
ler’s office saw alphabetic print-
ers, sorters, collators, reproduc-
ers, interpreters, verifiers and key
punches go into service,

“A multitude of advantages will
accrue from the new installa-
tion,” the Comptroller says. ‘'Sec-
ond to economy in importance are
the speed and completeness with
which this office will henceforth

be able to provide information to
the public and to operating of-

ficials. New summary reports will
be produced daily instead of
monthly, It will no longer 10
necessary for the city depart-
ments to keep duplicate sets of
books and these will graduelly
be eliminated, In brief, methods
of the old counting house days
are being supplanted by the most
complete and up-to-date accoti!it-
ing system available.”
No One to Bu Fired

Employees formerly assig
to hand bookkeeping have grail
ally been transferred to other
positions which were vacant, and,
although the total staff will b¢
reduced by this method, no e™-
ployees will be dismissed and sub-

stantial savings will be show:
Mr, McGoldrick said.
Early in 1938 Mr. Cunning

ham undertook a survey of the
accounting system and discover el
that a steady increase in the
city's financial activities hed
reached a point where the &-
counting work was falling behind.
Also, when special analysis were
to be made it was necessary !°

ments, As a result of the survey’

CIVIL SERVANT
EARNS FIRST
ARMY STRIPES

The distinction of being one of
the first selectees—if not the first
—to earn non-commissioned of-
ficer'’s stripes goes to Harry P,
Armus, of New York City, Cor-
poral Armus received his promo-
tion June 16, 1941,

Formerly employed by the City
of New York, Finance Depart:
ment, Armus is a resident of
Brooklyn, where he lived with hi
parents at 2337 8ist street. He
was inducted into the Army at
Fort Dix, N. J., Feb, 26, and as-
signed to the 8th Infantry Feb. 29,

Another distinction of Corporal
Armus' is that he has been desig-
nated as official photographer for
the regiment by Col. C. C. Stoke-
ly, which is an object lesson in
turning a hobby into a tangible
advantage,

Transit Board to “Even” Wages

Program Does Not Necessarily Mean Wage Increases

Following a series of conferences
between members of the Board of
Transportation and representa-
tives of subway workers,
payroll “equalization program,’?
estimated to cost about $5,000,000,
will be announced this week.

Adjustments of salaries have
been discussed in a serles of con-
ferences with various union lead-
ers including representatives of
the Transport Workers Union
(CIO), Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers, (AFL), Railway
Signalmen (AFL) and other
groups such as employee organ-
{zations representing supervisory
and ‘white-collar’ workers,

The program Is described as a
“Jevelling process” rather than a
salary increase program,

The whole idea, according to
LEADER information, is to

tion Counsel, Grade 4 (administra~
tive code) as appropriate for the

+ + reserved decision on a re-

quest of the Transport Workers
Union that the Commission ex-
tend from July 1, 1942 to Decem-
ber: 81, 1942 the date until which
the Board of Transportation is
authorized to carry on leave of
absence without pay B.M.T, and
LR.T. employes who will soon
be eligible for pension,
: O.K,'d two more resolutions
reclassifying seventy-eight B.M.T.
and 128 I.R.T, employees into the
competitive class

tion of salary for the same work.

Certain categories of employees
on the BMT, under the present
system, earn more than transit
workers on the Independent sys-
tom for the same work but less
than others on the IRT although
the duties are identical and the
work the same.

1,600 Rates of Pay

When the city took over the
private subway lines there were
some 1,600 different rates of pay
in 64 titles for about 28,000 em-
ployees,

The “equalization” process will
adjust the different rates of pay
to a more even basis,

One of the headaches under the
old system, it was pointed out,
was “piece work’ on the IRT.
This will be eliminated under the
new set-up. .

An even more bothersome
matter was the ‘‘fraction of a
cent’ payment under the old sys:
tem, This system found one man
getting perhaps 87 and a fraction
cent an hour while another re+
ceived perhaps 87 and another
fraction, ‘The new scheme will
eliminate this and equalize, a»
far as possible, all salaries.

The conference continued yes-
terday and a decision is expected
to be announced late this week,

When Fire Commissioner Pat-
rick Walsh promoted ten fire
lieutenants to the rank of captain
recently, thereby exhausting the
existing Civil Service eligible list,
it sounded notice that the Mu-
nicipal Civil Service Commission
would soon have to announce the
result of the test held last Octo-
ber for Captain, The Commission

Worked Saturdays,
Wants Pay for It

‘The case of the provisional who
fs suing the city for overtime pay
because he had to work on Satur-
days when others did not, has
been adjourned to October by the
First District Municipal Court.
Thus, city officials and employees
will have to wait until the Fall
for a decision, which, if rend-
ered in the plaintiff's favor, will
have a far-reaching effect on
Father Knickerbocker's pocket-
book.

Here are the facts in the case:
In February, 1942, Samuel Blut-
stein received a provisional ap-
pointment as an assistant director
of rehousing in the Housing Au-
thority at $1,260 per year. His
work proved so valuable that on
March 1, he received a raise in
salary to $1,800 annually. On
May 15, he was laid off because

of the lack of work. A month's
vacation, to which he was en-
titled postponed this lay-off until
June 15.

Mr, Blutstein claims that on 15
Saturdays he had to work as late
as 2p. m. On June 9, he brought
suit against the city for $120
overtime pay, His department
heads agree that he worked the

time stated according to their
records, However, they insist
that working on Saturdays is

that there is no
overtime pay,
askd for

part of the job,
appropriation for
and that no one ever
it before.
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Oscar Tucker, handling the case
for the city, stated that the
plaintiff had not signed the pay-
roll under protest, that he had
not filed his claim within thirty
days, and that the city was not
obligated to pay the overtime
anyway,

Politicos Ax Ramspeck Act;
Kill Civil Service for 39,000

Congress has again swung its
axe on the Ramspeck Act. Hay-
img already kept 18,000 Works

ployees and 3,000 National Youth
Administration employees frorm
Civil Service despite a plea fro,
the President, Congress last wer,
tossed back 18,000 jobs in the
Farm Security Administration jy.
to the lap of the patronage bog
when hardly any one was looking,

The tragic part of it all is thay
15,000 of the Farm Security joby
would have been brought undey
Civil Service on midnight of Jung
30. At 10:30 p.m., just an houy
and a half before the employee,
were to be brought under, Con.
gress approved a rider to the
ond Deficiency Bill that bang
Civil Service for Farm Security
employee:

It was a political stunt, pure and
simple, Now every employee ot
Farm Security Administration iy
scared he will be axed and some
politician be given his place.

The LEADEK will keep federal
empolyees fully informed about
the Ramspeck Ac!

operator, radio and
meteorologist.

Certain registers are being used
to fill positions ordinarily filled
from registers of their own. For
example, the statistical clerk reg-
jeter is being used to fill posi-
tions in the category of junior
professional assistant and the ac-
countant and auditor register is
being used to fill construction cost
auditor jobs. The general investl-
gator register has been used to

Hiring Program

Believe it or not, Uncle Sam
during recent months has hired
new employees at the rate of 1,631
each day. This is an astounding
record of expansion, but a prelim-
inary survey indicates that the
number of new employees hired
during May was even greater.
‘The federal government on May
1 had 1,251,283 employees on its
payroll for an all-time record.
During April the War Depart-
ment hired 26,205 employes, the
Navy 7,796, Panama Canal, 6,618.
Employment in the District of

CIVIL SERVICE IN

By MORTON YARMON

What Prison Guard Job Is Like

50 Appointments Have Already Been Made; More Coming in the Fall

Fifty appointments from the
newly-established Prison Guard
Jist were made yesterday, to fill
85 permanent and 15 temporary
vacancies in institutions through-
out the State, To get sufficient
acceptances for these jobs, the
Correction Department certified
down to eligible number 260,
with a rating of 87.828, Only 150
persons were canvassed, however,
as many of the eligibles with in
tervening numbers were disq
ifed physically, failed to appear
at the physical test, or are in
army camps.

‘The next wholesale batch of ap-

pointments is expected in the late
fall, when the opening of Green-

haven Prison calls for at least
100 guards to be put to work im-
mediatel; The bulk of these

guards will be taken from other
prisons, where vacancies will
then arise.

Between now and the fall, per-
manent appointments will prob-
ably come about from time to
time, at the rate of about five a
month, to meet the usual num-
ber of vacancies caused by death,

retirement, ete, In addition, it is
likely that military service will
bring about temporary vacancies.
Men appointed to stich jobs re-
main on the list for permanent
appointment. ‘The department
will make every effort to retain
permanently those who come in
on a temporary basis.
Important Facts

Here are some important facts
about the Prison Guard job:

Some institutions enjoy rotat-
ing shifts, but that is always sub-
Ject to circumstances,

Guards buy their uniforms at
dealers whose products meet the
department's specifications. ‘The
uniform, consisting of trouser
coat, cap, black tie, winter over-
coat, costs in the vicinity of $75.

Each year Guards must pass a
physical exam.

Guards spend two months at the
Wallkill Guard School, then
spend a third month on proba-
tion,

‘The Correction Department pen-
sion system is no longer in ex-
istence, and employees are mem-
bers of the regular State Retire-
ment System plan, yj

Lieutenant, Captain, Assistant
Prison Keeper, Prison Keeper,
Assistant Principal Prison Keep-

DPUI Promotion Lists

With two DPUI promotion
s—for Employment Counselor
neipal Clerk—just estab-
lished, the Civil Service unit of
the Division is now finishing up
on two open lists that have been
pending for quite a while,
Grandaddy of them all is the
list for Junior Economist, for
which the test was given March
80, 1940. Experience has just been
rated and the list should be out
shortly after the first of August.
The open list for Employment
Counselor is expected before the
end of July. The promotion list,
pst established, must be used up
irst, according to Civil Serv
Jaw. Of the 16 on this list, two
haye already resigned, About a
dozen provisionals are now work-

DPUI STAFF GETS
SERVICE RECORDS

Service record ratings went out
last week to the 3,300 permanent
employees of the Division of
Placement and Unemployment In-
surance, All appeals had to be in
the hands of the evaluation unit,
headed by Benjamin Kaplan, by
the end of the week. It won't
be before the fall, though, before
all such appeals are decided one
way or another as both officials
and employees are about to take
vacations.

The normal rate of appeal is
between five and seven per cent.
On the basis of past experience,
it is estimated that ultimately
about fifty appeals will be revised.

The rating of promotion exams
is held up while final adjudica-
tions on service ratings are made,
as they are weighted in the final
mark.

The DPUI evaluation system,
similar to that of other state de-
partments in that the marking
scale ranges from seventy-five to
eighty-seven percent, is probably
the most comprehensive in the
country, in private or public em-
ployment.

Future
State Tests

The State law says that titles
of open competitive lists required
by departments and institutions
must be publicly announced for 15
days before the State Civil Serv-
ice Commission takes action,
During this period employees who
believe there is a field for promo-
tion to the title are urged to com-
municate with the State Commis-
sion, The following titles are
now being advertised (the date
denotes when the fifteen days are
up):

July 9—Department of Taxation

July §—Kenssalaer County Pub-
lic Welfare Department — Re-

Got Salary Increases,
May Have to Refund

A number of State employees
who received salary increments
“by error’ last July and are de-
prived of an increment this year
are signing their checks and pay-
rolls from July 15 on under pro-
test.

These employees have been hit
by a recent ruling of Attorney
General Bennett. Bennett held
that State employees promoted
between January 1 and June 30,
1939, who received their incre-
ments last year were not entitled
to the increases.

‘The possibilities of court action
are now being discussed. Mean-
while Irving Raymar, Labor De-
partment employee, is urging all
others hit by this ruling to com—
municate with him. He can be
reached at the CIVIL SERVICE
LEADER, 97 Duane Street, New
York City.

1,000 DIDN'T TAKE
ATTENDANT TEST

Nearly 1,000 of the 6,000 candi-
dates who originally filed for the
June 2ist Hospital Attendant ex-
am failed to appear in the exam-
ination room, This disappointing
news comes from the State Civil
Service Commission, which re-.
cords that only 5,050 candidate:
plus about seventy-five in Platts-
burg, actually took the test.

The examinations division of
the State Commission is going
full speed ahead on the marking,
and the list is expected some time
in August, Last year over 90 per
cent of the candidates scered 75
percent or better and made the
If the same rate holds true
this year, a list of about 4,500

enfse positio:

"This list, which contains con-

High-Grade

A notice of particular interest
to persons experienced in man-
agement of important private or
public enterprises has been re-

ceived from the Civil Service
Commission, Washington, D. C.
Announcement is made of ex-

aminations for filling five grades
of administrative positions, mostly
in national defense agencies, as
follows: Executive Officer, $8,-
000; Chief Administrative Offi-
cer, $6,500; Principal Administra-
tive Officer, $5,600; Senior Admin-
istrative Officer, $4,600, and Ad-
ministrative Officer, $3,800 a year.
Positions at these levels are the
very highest ordinarily filled
through Civil Service, The stand-
ard of requirements is corre-
spondingly high.

No written examination is re-
quired but to be eligible a person
must show experience, acquired
either in public or private employ-
ment, involving important and ex-
tensive administrative responsi-
bility, or broad experience as a
successful consultant or adviser
in public or business administra-
tion, scientific or industrial man-
agement, The length of the ex-
perience required varies—a_ mini-
mum of nine years for the lowest
grade, and graduating upward for
the higher grades, The degree of

administrat responsibility re-
quired also increases with the
grade of the position, Under-

graduate and pertinent graduate
study in a recognized college or
university may be substituted for |
a part of the expertence,

New Procedure
An unusual feature of these ex-
aminations is the preliminary
classification, Applicants’ quali-
fications will initially be given a

tentative rating as to eligibility
only, If found eligible, they will
be classed in appropriate  cate-

gories of administrative skills and
fields of substantive knowledge.

Dirty Racket No. 1

EVALK about dirty rackets!
The defense program has provided one with a new
‘ twist,

The racketeers, taking advantage of the increase in
employment opportunities, and feeding on the eagerness
of men and women for work, promise jobs—in return for
a fee, thank you. It works like this: A smart-talking gen-
tleman visits the prospective victim, representing himself
as a foreman in a large aircraft concern holding defense
contracts, The caller may say he has been recommended
by the State Employment Service, or some other official
agency. Once he has wormed his way into the confidence
of his victim, he points out that a fee must be paid to
scmebody for “service” of one kind or another in sewing
up the job.

Don't be a sucker!

You needn't pay for a defense job. If anybody asks you
for money, don’t shell it out before you've checked up on
who he is and just why he has come to see you.

A racket which plays with the country’s defense is a

New York Gets
A Federal Agency

E’RE glad to see that the Internal Revenue’s

Washington division is moving to New York,

They're going to occupy a huge suite in the Em-
pire State Building, over 2,000 employees.

But it's not enough. New York is the natural second
capital of the nation, There's no reason why over-
crowded Washington shouldn't send its huge surplus of
federal employees here.

It probably wouldn't take too much pushing. But
unless New Yorkers really start asking for it, you'll find
a goodly portion of Washington's personnel going else-
where—Philadelphia, Chicago, St. Louis. No reason for
such decentralization, New York City is the place.

If Mayor LaGuardia really gave the matter a little of
his energetic attention, it could probably be accom-
plished.

How about it, Butch?

Merit Men

FROM ELEVATOR OPERATOR
to Custodian of the 40-story Man-
hattan Municipal Building and Su-

‘That's the Merit Man record of

course, you might notice that thin-
ning gray hal but don’t let that
fool you, either.

Bill is one of those rarities, a
native New Yorker. He was born
on the lower east side March 24,
1888,

Bill's Alma Mater is the St. Rose
of Lima Parochial School, Cannon
and Delancey streets, where many
boys of the neighborhood at that
time paraded to for their schooling.

Although Bill hustled himself a
job after graduation, he found time

in the evenings to attend a bust.
ness school for four years.
Began at $2.75 a Day

He entered the city service June
26, 1914 as an elevator operator at
$2.75 a day in the very building he
now is “Boss” to some 214 em.
ployees.

In 1917, when the war came
along, Bill was one of the firat to
have “‘private’’ tacked on to hig
name, He came out in 1919 as a
sergeant attached to the Inte)li.

Back in the city service, Bill
took a Civil Service promotion ex.

quently he was appointed in charg
of the Second District Municipal
Court, on Madison street, Later in
1985, he was transferred to tho

Hospital Attendant Complaints

Sirs: I want to cheer the sentt-
ments expressed in your editorial
last week entitled "What Happens
When Salaries Are Low,” urging
the State Legislature to provide
more funds for the Attendants in
the State's mental institutions.

I should like to go one step be-
yond what you said. You argue
that the salary of the attendant job
should be raised because there is a
scarcity of available men and
women willing to accept this kind
of employment, and the State must
compete with high-paying defense
Industrie

I, too, believe that the Legisla-
ture should raise the salary of the
attendant job, but for better rea-
sons, The hospital attendant is the
person. most directly in contact
with the mentally sick patient. He
sees the patient throughout the
day, in every phase of his life, It
is to the attendant that the pa-
tient looks for kind care, It is not
too much to say that the attendant
is the most important single in-
dividual in the life of the patient.

And what does the State do about
all this? It offers hospital attend-
ants $54 a month plus mainte-
nance, a Wage close to the bottom
of the industrial scale, It is hardly
any wonder, then, that those who
can't find jobs elsewhere make up
the bulk of the attendant popula-
tion in our institutions, Helpless
mental patients ave directly in the
js of men and women who
e no interest in them, who take
the attendant jobs as ais unpleas-
ant stop-gap until a better job
comes up

When the defense rush is over,
men and women will probably
again be available for the work,
They will be workers taken on

only in an emergency, who will
haye to fall back on Attendant
work when other opportunities
have faded, But that will hardly be
a solution,

The LEADER should start a real
battle now for better salaries for
hospital attendants, ‘The present
shortage is putting the spotlight on
low salaries and bad working con-
ditions in the hospitals. If salaries
are permanently raised as a result,
and if the Attendant position be-
comes the sought-after, valuable oc-
cupation it should be, present hard-

ships will not have been in vain,
S, M, ROBERTS.

Sirs: ‘To the end that enroll-

half of Fire Commissioner Walsh
to ask the courtesy of a line or
two in the current issue of The

Didn’t Work

Sirs: I remember the good work
of The LEADER in endeavoring (0
have the New York City Civil Sery-
ice Commission set up some method
of facilitating transfers from on¢
department to another, Well, the
Commission finally did publish its
Transfer Journal, but what came
of it? If I'm correct, not a single
person got a transfer as a ult
of it. It looked to my layman's
eye that too much red tape was in-
volved, The first department had
to consent, the second department
had to consent, the Commission
had to consent, and I don't know
who else had to consent, Anything
as complicated as that is bound to
fall of its own weight.

The problem still remains, I wis!
The LEADER would look into it
again, and see what can be done

Transfer in U. S. Job

J.M—In order to obtain a
transfer in the federal service,
you must first find a vacancy
in your title in the department to
which you wish to transfer, Then
you must obtain permission of the
heads of that department and of
your own department in order to
affect the transfer.

K, J.—Leaves of absence in the

Question 73

When a parking violation is ob-
served where violator is not avail-
able for service of a police sum~
Mons, the registered owner of the
vehicle will be summonsed by affix-

Ing a summons tag securely, ted
to the steering wheel, if possible, or
when not possible’ to the door

handle on the curb side of the vehi-
cle; however, such owner may
make a special appearance in court
and show he was not the person
who illegally parked the vehicle.
The constitutionality of the valid-
ity of the tag summons has been
upheld, (Art. 2 para, 143 Manual
of Procedure.)

uestion 74

Section 435 of the Charter pro-
vides, in part, that the Police Com-
missioner shill make such rules
and regulations for the conduct of
pedestrian . . . traffic in the use
Of the public’ streets, squares, and
laventies as he may deem necessary;
PROCEDURE: Such rules and
regulations shall not become effec-
tive until they have been filed with
the City Clerk and published in. the
City Record. Violations are triable
by a city magistrate and punish-
able by not more than 30 days im-
prisonment, or by @ fine of not
more than $50.00, or both.

Question 75

1, Dangerous Driving,
cludes many variations
turning corners, speeding,
ete., when circumstanced w
tain results, 2, Leaving the scene
of an accident. (Although the above
cases are the only two specifically
mentioned under Art 2, para. 118 of
M.P,; In rare cases a summons
may be issued for Driving while in-
toxleated (N.¥.C. Criminal Courts
Act)—or if a summons is issued for
‘a traffic violation in connection
with an accident the patrolman and
driver should generally appear in
the first instance, ‘The reason for
difference in procedure: Al-
though a complaint form is re-
quired to state the facts in all vio-
lations, those charged with minor
infractions generally plead guilty
and the complaints are prepared at
the Station house thus keeping
more patrolmen on actual patrol
duty; whereas in the above the de-
fendant generally pleads not guilty
and conviction for one of the abov
results in a criminal record and/or
compulsory insurance, therefor, tho
complaint is drawn up in the Com-
plaint. Room of the Court instead of
the Station house. To prevent de-
lay and expense on the part of the
city and the defendant, they are
both present in the first instance
to present technical evidence, such
as can be seen by the various acts
Included in Dangerous Driving.

Question 76

Any driver isa first offender if
he violates the Traffic Regulations
except, those classified as parking,
if he has not been convicted within
& period of twelve months, of the

which in-
such as

same traffic offense with which he
is charged at the time he desires to

ine. A conviction for different

Washington’s Gestapo

Charges that an officially-sponsored Gestapo, or secret squad of
confidential informers, spy on Washington policemen were made to
the House Police Investigation subcommittee by a Captain of the Met-
ropolitan Police Force, Harvey G. Callahan, Captain Callahan stated
that the squad contains men who have no police background or ex-
perience which would enable them to judge the actions of individual
patrolmen, “Such a squad is usually composed of men who have
passed the Civil Service tests for appointment and have been confi-
dentially appointed without the knowledge of other members of the
department beyond a very limited group. They have no acquaintance

with the duties of a patrolman, They may, and frequently do, bring
with them into the department certain prejudices against uniformed

Other charges made by Captain Callahan were: (1) The District's

e suffers from a “lack of adequate, intelligent supervision’;
higher brackets are ‘comparatively illiterate, ig-
ional knowledge"; (3) the selling of tickets
to police benefits is a “thinly-veiled form of public extortion’; (4) the
stem of promotions is ‘inadequate, unfair, unintelligent.” Upon
completing his testimony, Captain Callahan was praised by the House

Welfare

By HENRY TRAVERS
The State Picture

‘The 1940 annual report of the
New York State Department of
Social Welfare shows, in part,
that:

There were 406,938 cases includ-
ing some 949,000 persons receiv:
ing public assistance in the state;
a drop from the 1940 monthly
average of 423,680 cases, a 7.8 per
cent decrease over December,
1938.

The cost of public assistance
granted in December, 1940, was
$14,067,298, down 4.5 per cent from
the previous December, and 10
per cent under December, 1938,

Expenditures for 1940 were
$168,455,458, which was 6.7 per
cent below 1939 of this total,
65.9 per cent was spent for home
relfef, 21.9 per cent for old age
assistance, 11.7 per cent for aid
ta dependent children, 0.5 per cent
for assistance to the blind.

The localities contributed 50.2
per cent of the $168,455,458, the
State's share was 36.0 per cent,
and the Federal Government pro-
vided the remaining 13.8 per cent.

The report, Legislature Docu-
ment (1941) No, 68, is entitled, So-
cial Welfare 1940, It is terse, in-
formative, and persuasive.

The 500 members of the War

ly and collectively, to Civilian De-
fense Administrator LaGuardia,
Copies of the resolution, signed by
Commander J. J. McGaw ana
Adjutant A. J. Senger, have been
forwarded to the Mayor and Com-

olution follows:

AS: The President of

by May Andres Healy

May Andres Healy is granted the widest latitude
in expressing her views.’ Her opinions do not
necessarily represent the views of The Leader,

HE Board of Superintendents seems to have cut the Gord

I knot of ancillary licenses with its suggestion that the Ho,,0

of Education’s by-laws be amended to permit up to fifty per pe
of a teacher's time to be spent in teaching an out-of-the license sui,
provided the teacher knows and can teach that subject. Evo
a while one of the much-maligned boards (Education, Superintendeny
or Examiners) does something that appears to be really clever, which
makes the vast majority of us, who are prone to criticize, sit \i) und
take notice. If this can be worked out as practically as it app
from first study, something tangible and valuable has been acc
plished.

What really had many of us worried was the legal angle of ¢,
entire ancillary license problem, By creating a short-cut—pernion et
by by-law instead of by ancillary lcense—the Board of Superintendace
seems to have solved that problem. Its legal strength lies in tho fact
that it is a universal practice. Everywhere in the country—porhass
everywhere in the world—teachers in secondary schools teach about as
many classes outside thelr license as within its scope, ‘The larger tie
city, the less teaching outside the license, since the number of studenty
is the determining factor in creating the demand for a large numbor o
classes in a variety of subjects. Our own problem was created by the
shrinkage of the city’s student population, In small towns and {n
rural areas, where high schools of 250 to 1,500 pupils are the rule, the
teacher licensed in French is almost certain to have a couple of muisio
and a couple of drawing classes on her program, for example, b.
there are not enough music or art classes to permit the hiring
music or an art teacher. Out of license teaching 1s the rule, not the
exception, in the hinterland.

TRIPLES EDUCATIONAL COSTS

That means that no school-hating tax reductionist is apt to suc to
invalidate the new by-law. In the first place, the by-law is legal be
cause the practice is universal, In the second place, a taxpayer's suit
would threaten to double and triple educational costs, if it could be
promulgated successfully, because in the rural sections the schools
would be compelled by law, it our by-law were ruled invalid, to hi
teacher for every license subject taught, The only alternative w
be to strictly limit the number of subjects, making rural education
vastly inferior to urban education,

There are, of course, cases where in our own school system teach:
ers teach more than fifty per cent out of license. The high school
principals will have to get together and work out a solution to this
problem, transferring some positions fom one school to another. This
if a French teacher at New Utrecht,for example, happens to be teich-
ing two Spanish classes to each French class he teaches, a French
position at New Utrecht will have to be abolished, a Spanish posit
created there, and a compensating adjustment made in some ¢
school. This will involve a transference of teachers, but transference
is far preferable to losing a position

APPEAR UNDULY SEVERE
The proposed regulations of Superintendent Campbell to supple:

_ ment the by-law, at first glance appear unduly severe. On the oth

hand, the “appropriate license” from the Board of Examiners, ™

tioned as requirement after 1945, does not necessarily mean a 1

license secured after a competitive examination against nev

ated college students. It may mean qualifying examin:

probably does, since in Civil Service situations of a similar nature

test wonld be a qualifying, not a competitive one.

If the Board of Education's in-service coursé schedule is mot
accordingly, many teachers will be able to qualify under the alte:
requirement, ‘the minimum number of semester hours of courses !t
the additional field or subject required by the State Department of
Education for license to qualify a person to teach such field or st!
ject.” Tt must be borne in mind that teachers have, for the most 1!
been teaching as a second subject the one “minored’’ in at college,
many of them have also been taking alertness or other courses In th
second field to improve theit own knowledge of the subject, In »
cases, therefore, they are close to the State Department requiteme
now, if they have not already fulfilled it. :

One other cheering note brightens our summer vacation prospec!
‘The birthrate is soaring, It is higher than at any time since 1930, 0!
the population experts have revised their estimates. Instead of a ol!"
or declining population, a seven per cent rise is now predicted, Tit
climb, which started several years ago, is now accelerated, and witht
the next two or three years the enrollment in kindergarten and ‘!
early primary grades is expected to pick up sharply, Thus there #5!
will be a demand for more teachers.

Longevity Gets Action

‘There has been action on the longevity bill, The House Committee
which has been dabbling with the bill for ever so long, finally acted
on it—favorably, But, like a Congressional committee, they couldn't
resist slicing the bill down. The wage increases are limited to two,
instead of five—$100 at the end of 10 years; another $100 at the end
of 15 years, The terms of the bill would be put into operation next
year. Next job is to get the Senate committee to act favorably, and
to get the Rules Committee to give the vill a place on the calendar,

Charter Asked, Charter Opposed

Feathers flew last Thursday in the State Office Building, 80 Center
Street. The APOE was there asking for a state charter. Representa-
tives of the Joint Conference were there, too, asking that the charter
be denied, The hearing was before the State Department of Labor.
Spokesman for the APOE said his organization wanted to achieve
unity among the postal workers. Spokesmen for the Joint Conference
argued that the APOE is a ‘‘small, disruptive group, whose object is
rather to raid existing organizations than to achieve unity.” The Joint
Conference men pointed out that In over five years, the APOE had
failed to build any kind of appreciable membership. A further he
ing is scheduled for July 17. Representing the Joint Conference were
William McHale, president; William T. Browne, Jr., president of
Local 10, Federation of Postal Clerks; Harold McAvoy, president,
N.Y. Laborers Local 1; Eugene LaColla, Brooklyn Federation, Local
251; Ephraim Handman, secretary of the Joint Conference; James
Quinn, secretary of the Central Trades and Labor Council.

reads as follow:

In any case, prepare. Here are
some simple exercises,

Each day practice standing up
straight with feet spread apart

APTERS:

and regular,

Half-hearted exercise will help
no more than overdoing it.

Start with a few simple exer-
cises to loosen up the muscles.

At first the “conditioning” pe-
riod will seem tough. But if you
practice a ‘daily dozen" regu-

larly for a week, you will find
it will come along a lot easier,
Body building is important,
Training for Agility
After you prepare through the
“body

uilding exercises’ or so-
daily-dozen” prepare for
lity part of the physical by
running a short distance first to
regulate your stride. Then prac-

tice broad-jumping by taking
small jumps first and working up
@ foot at a time until you can
make the footage required.

Only continuous practice will
give you precision and speed.

Like training a horse as a
jumper in tho steeplechase races,
it is suggested you first perfect
jumping over a small hurdle until
you have complete confidence.
Then raise the hurdle as you go
along in practice,

Practicing for a fence climb
should be prefaced by chinning
a bar in order to strengthen your
arm pull. Then practice running
up against a fence or wall and
hit it with the ball of one foot,
giving yourself an upward push |
from the wall as you hit it.

The Columbia Association of the Post Office last week purchased
a $1,000 Defense Bond. In the photo above you see, left to right
