In 1938, the total number of non-competitive employees in the
State service was 22,309, slightly over one-third the total e
ployees subject to the State Civil Service Law, numbering 63,868,
Yearly appointments in each class are approximately the same.

In

appointed in the competitive

non-competitive and labor

ALBANY, Oct, 30—As State officials began the second week of consultation to deter-
mine the size of next year’s budget, reliable sources today declared that the likelihood of
wholesale lay-offs and large-scale reductions in salaries of Civil Service employees appears

remote.

Governor Lehman requested a “truce on politics” as Republican
and Democratic representatives and department heads began
deliberations with Budget Director Abraham S. Weber last week,

Some observers believe that increased business activity and addi-
tional revenue next year will enable the State to restore many posi-
tions which were abolished in last year’s sweeping economy drive.

Approximately 1,000 Jobs were abolished last year and another
1,000 vacancies which ordinarily would have been filled were left
open.

Officials of the Assn. of State Civil Service Employees predicted
last week that the Legislature would restore the mandatory salary
increments provided by the Feld-Hamilton law. These were sus-
pended last year and resulted in a saving of about $1,000,000 to the
State, but the association has made vigorous protests against this
sort of economy.

Budget hearings with department heads are scheduled almost
daily until Nov, 23,

Heading the list of departments which are presenting estimates
of the funds needed for next year is the State Civil Service Com-
mission, which met with the Budget Director last week.

Moving Ahead
I PROPOSED transfer of 15,000 non-
competitive jobs into the competitive

class in the State service is another great
step to advance the merit system. Coupled
with the program underway to extend Civil
Service rules to 150,000 employees of small
coun New
York State will soon take an undisputed
leadership in the merit system parade,

town and village services,

Most of the present non-competitive posi
tions are filled by appointing officers after a
“pass” exam, which is often nothing more
than the filing of an application. The bulk
of these positions are in the State corree
tional institutions and mental hygiene hos-
pitals.

The problem of holding competitive tests
for many of these positions will present dif-
ficulties which the municipalities do not con-
front, One hi che will be local residence
requirements instead of State-wide examina-
tions, Others will be proper classification
and pension rights, But, undoubtedly, these
problems will be carefully studied and a
practical solution worked out.

A Logical Step

registers of the U. S,

HE ELIGIBL

Civil Service Commission are bulging
today with names of persons readily avail-
able for most of the field positions to be
needed for the 1940 Census. It would seem
Jogic indeed for the Commission then to
avail itself of these registers instead of wast-
ing time and money to check the qualifi
tions of those appointed by intereste
parties.

Not only would this be fair to thou-
sands who have been invited by Uncle
Sam to qualify for appointment in the
public service, but it would relieve many
a Congressman of a headache. Need-
less to say, the public would benefit in
the matter of economy and a job well
done.

The suggestion that President Roosevelt
urge the Census Bureau to use these regis-
ters makes good sense. President Theodore
Roosevelt insisted that Civil Service r
ters be used to find field employees for a
previous census. It was the logical thing
to do then, and it is the logical thing today.

A Real Career Service
pounce LEHMAN has given Civil

Service a definite boost in disapprov
ing the proposal to transfer nine top-salary
administrative posts in the State Insurance
Fund from the competitive to the exempt
class. ‘hese positions, paying from $4,500-
9,000, have long been in the competitive

s, and there seems no good reason to
warrant the transfer.

More important, though, is the fact that
today the State is encouraging persons of
talent to look to the public service for career
opportunities. ‘The best way to do this is to
hold out to them the assurance that they
can look forward to advancement to the
highest administrative posts.

SCMWA Amplifies

Sir; In your issue of Oct. 10 yo
ry two stories of gains won t
|civil service employees in the past |
week, I refer to the reduction of
eligibility requirements for the pro-
motion to Clerk, Grade 2, and the
granting of leaves of absence to em- |
ployees serving their probationary
| periods after promotion. |
| Although both stories were fact
lly correct as far as they went, no
mention was included in either ac-
| count of the organization responsible
|for achieving these two gains, the |
State, County and M ‘ipal Work-
ers of America.

I should like to call to your at-
tention the fact that ever since the
State Civil Service Commission had
disapproved the original resolution
granting a waiver in the require-
ments for Clerk, Grade 2, our union
|has been conducting a campaign for
reconsideration of this action, Hun-
|dreds of petitions and letters have
been sent to the State Comm
|by our membership during the
|two months.

On Oct, 5, Paul Ziporkis, chair- |
man of our Civil Service Commit-
tee, appeared before the Commis- |
sion at Albany, presented the case
for reconsideration to the Com-
mission, and received the Commis-
sion’s assurance that the waiver
resolution would be reconsidered
if amended to exclude employees
who have not passed their pro
| tionary perieds, Mr. Ziporkis then

saw President Kern, who agreed to
| pass the amended resolution,
| In regard to allowing promoted
employees to receive a leave of
sence to serve their probat
periods, the SCMWA hi
the Municipal Civil Service Commis-
sion to effect such a change in its
rules to prevent the possibility of
|employees who are promoted and
fail to pass their probationary pe-
riods, from losing their former jobs
jas well,

In view of the important role
played by the SCMWA in achieving
both these gains, a fair and accurate
account of these achievements
should have included some mention
of the union.

—Epwanp Prius,
| Chairman,
Legislative Committee,
SCMWA,

| (The Leader fully recognizes the

part the SCMWA has taken in fight-|

ing numerous Civit Service battles.
Due to space limitations it was not
possible to give all the background
| material in the stories involved.)

y | matter, I remain,

Sir: I noted with great interest your announcement in Tuesday's
Leader that you will soon inaugurate a “Complaint Corner.”

ployees who spends his tine 1, qsmoOqOO0SO

‘Unbiased Manner’

Sir: You are to be con-
gratulated for the unbiased
manner in which you are
conducting your excellent
publication,

Unfortunately there are
too many problems that the
city employees have contin-
uously arising; but fortu-
nately you have Mr. H. Eliot
Kaplan available to answer
these problems,

As you know, city em-
ployees are not interested in
propaganda but in actual
facts dispassionately dis-
seminated, therefore I am
happy to see a paper on the
stands that has no axe to
grind.

—Hanrry E. Bass.
President,
Assn, of Competitive Em-
ployees,
Dept. of Sanitation.

| Use Printers List

Unlike other Civil Service
papers I believe that you are non-
partisan, non-political, playing no
favorites and a champion to the
prospective and present civil em-
| ployees and, of course, to the service
and its betterment.

The Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission, when it deems fit, places
eligibles of one list onto another, to
wit: Firemen are being placed with

the Dept, of Sanitation, etc., ete, You, |

no doubt, are aware of these changes
better than L

Yet I note with deep concern, that
the Commission intends, in the very
near future, to hold a test for Job
| Compositor which is a department of
the printing trades,

In the recent test for printer a
candidate had to be a fair expert at
job composing, lockup, proofreading,
‘and presswork, Isn't it only fair,
then, to these men as well as a sav-
ing of time and money to the city to
certify the printers list for the posi-

| tion of Job Compositor?

I am down at the bottom of this
list which has only moved three
places since being established. But
for those men who fought a tough
| assignment a little consideration is
forthcoming. I am confident that you
will do your utmost to right this
before it becomes a wrong.

I don't know as to whether there
is already an established printers
eligible group.

| ‘Thanking you in advance for any
efforts that you may extend in this

—S. Danren Gussiy.

[Ed. Note: The Municipal Civil
Service Commrssion has informed
the Leader that it will investigate
the appropriateness of the Printers’
list for positions as Printing Press-
men and Job Compositors.]

Feld-Hamilton

Sir: I have read every issue of The
Leader and find it interesting and
instructive. I believe your Ques-
tions & Answer column is especially
helpful to Civil Service employees.

many of your readers would appre-
ciate it if you would publish an

employees can join, regardless of past or present
affiliations.

Have Group Insurance Plan

One of the first acts of the new organization
was to form a group health and accident insur-
ance policy for members. Salient features of
the plan include monthly income for five years
from the date of accident and monthly income
for one year for employees disabled by sickness.

Heneghan has thought a good deal about
methods to improve Civil Service. He believes,
for example, that fifth grade Clerks, whose sal-
arjes start at $3,000, should receive mandatory
increases up to $5,000 over a period of 10 to 15
years; that pensions should not exceed $5,000,
and that the minimum should be half a man’s
salary. He also thinks that employees should
be permitted to retire after 25 years, even
though many would be in their forties, if this
were possible,

Dismissals, Heneghan claims, are too arbi-
trary. The right of trial and review should be
given to Civil Service employees, he thinks.

“The man in Civil Service has less chance of
& square deal than the man in private indus-
try,” he declares. “At least, the latter has a
Jabor union to fight for him.” However, Hene-
ghan doesn’t approve of labor unions in the
Civil Service field.

Wants Five-Day Week _

Other changes which outspoken Martin Hen-
eghan would like to see: 1) a five-day week and
a uniform sick leave law; 2) the selection of
one of the three Municipal Civil Service Com-
missioners by competitive exams; 3) a constitu-
tional provision abolishing the power of ap-
pointive officials to select any one of three eli-
gibles at the top of a list,

Heneghan has some bones to pick with the
Fusion administration and the present Civil
Service Commission; he opposes what he con-
siders favoritism toward men and women with
college degrees. He feels that the man without
higher education should get a better break.

complaint
corner

With this issue The Leader inaugurates a
new feature called The Complaint Corner, This
column is open to all our readers and offers an
opportunity for Civil Service employees to ex-
press legitimate complaints about their jobs,
their salaries, the conditions under which they
work, lack of promotional opportunities, etc.

Low Park Pay

“Only a short time ago the five borough Park
Dept. employees underwent an inspection in
Central Park. This inspection revealed the
shocking condition the men were in. Old
clothes, patched pants and time-worn coats
were worn by the majority of them.

“These men—laborers and skilled Assistant
Gardeners, etc——haye been clamoring for
years for an increase in their meagre pay, but
so far they have had only promises from the
present Park Dept. commissioner and vetoes
from our Mayor whenever @ bill to increase
salaries was presented to him,

“This situation has a sickening effect on all
the men and on their families as well. The
blame can be laid at the doorstep of the Mayor.
We hope he will realize what these vetoes mean
and truly live up to the name of a ‘humane
Mayor,’ by supporting a bill which the late B.
Charney Viadek would have sent through with-
out a moment's hesitation to grant our families
a chance towards a better living.

A Park Derr, WorxKER,”

Hospital Workers

“Perhaps you can make The Leader worthy
of its name by awakening the public to the
fact that the city is very unfair to the em-
ployees of some departments, especially the
Dept. of Hospitals. I think that the salaries in
the dept. are the lowest in the city, though it
is, next to the Police Dept., the most deserv-
ing

“My husband started as an attendant in the
Kings County Hospital three years ago at &
salary of $35 a month, We have two children
and we had to live on that amount. Gradually
he got increases until now, after three years he
makes $65. After rent, food and other necessi-
ties are paid for, what is left?

“My father has been working in the Dept. of

is the highest they get. If that isn't injustice,
what is?

DPUI Seniority Fight Continues

A warning that the Attorney General may soon be requested
to permit examination of records of the State Civil Service
Commission and of the Division of Placement and Unemploy-
ment Insurance in the Dept. of Labor was sent this week to
members of the DPUI Seniority Protective Committee by A. E.

Abramson, treasurer.

The committee is fighting to have eligibles in the Division re-
tain their status in face of layoffs on the basis of original
standing on the list instead of original date of appointment.
It is maintained that many received appointment prior to those

above them on the list.

Supreme Court Justice Peter Schmuck, ruling in the Tilles
case last month, denied an application to have the records of
the Commission and the DPUI examined before trial.

Without An Exam

Following a nation-wide search of
the Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission which brought in only one
unqualified candidate, the Com-
mission ruled recently that the pre:

lent incumbent in the position of |

Research Assistant, Hospitals Dept.,
be brought into the competitive
class without an exam,

The position, which pays $2,500, is
that of a cancer research expert.
Under rule 5-9-8, appointees who
have unique qualifications which
cannot be found elsewhere may be
brought into the competitive class
with no further ado.

The Municipal Commission first
rejected the Hospitals Dept. request
that this procedure be followed, but
changed its ruling when its search

|for qualified candidates ended in|

last Summer.

Time Lost If Suspended

When a arson is suspended fram
a list for three months, this does not
mean that after he is restored, three
months will be added to his term of
eligibility. The time during which
he was suspended is lost,

The best way to make the most of

fill out application forms carefully
and to respond readily to any in-
quires which the Civil Service Com-
mission may make. The Commission
gives ev pplicant a square deal.

If something happens which he
doesn't understand, the Commission
will furnish a full explanation if it

Name W, F. McDonoug
To Classification Boar

ALBANY, Oct. 30—William F. McDonough, Assistant J
rector of the Bureau of Milk Control in the State Dept
Agriculture and Markets, was appointed a member of j
Classification Board of the,.
State Civil Service Dept. to-
day.

A former president of the Assn. of
State Civil Service Employees and |
active in the affairs of this organiza-
tion, McDonough is expected to
champion the views of the employees
in classification matters,

The Classification Board was set
up under the Career Act, popularly
called the Feld-Hamilton Law, en-
acted several years ago. The three
member board is responsible for the |
classificatf6n and reclassification of |
titles of State employees on the basis
of their duties. Since salaries and
promotions depend on the titles of
positions, the composition and indi-
vidual attitude of members of the
board are of utmost importance to
State workers,

McDonough has been connected
with the State service since 1909
After public and business school ed
ucation, he entered the Dept. of
Agriculture and Markets, where he
is still employed. In 1924 he became
Assistant Director of the Division of
Dai s and Foods, and in 1934 was
made Assistant Director of the Di-
vision of Milk Control. He is also
Superintendent of the Dairy Ee
