Another indication that there is
no love lost between Mayor La-
Guardio and Judge Goldstein is
that when an anonymous letter
informed the Mayor that the
holder of a $7,000 job was the
Judge's nephew the incumbent no
longer incumbed.

On July 17, this column pre-
dicted the appointment of Henry
Epstein as manager of William
O'Dwyer’s campaign for NYC
Mayor. It came through.

Domestic Scene

“Romance ain't what it’s cracked
up to be” is the sad plaint of
some girls in the Municipal offices.
Anticipating the return of boy
friends from overseas service, the
girls go out and buy their trous-
seaus and get a leave from the
office. But the returning service
men, ft seems, aren't all matri-
monially minded. In one city of-

Orange blossoms and soft music—
Grooms asked “out.”

Besides the need for post-war
planning for large open-competi-
tive examinations, and for carry-
ing on the usual promotion tests,
the commission is faced with a
steadily increasing number of spe-
cial military examinations.

Work Is Increasing

These are now proving an oner-
ous burden, the commission staff
finds. The number is expected to
increase yery sharply. Now con-
fined mainly to promotion tests,
these special military exams soon

petitive tests that returning vet-
erans missed because of military

Post-War Tests
In NYC Stymied
Over the Budget

The reason for the absence of post-war planning activities of the NYC Civil
Service Commission was revealed today as due to failure to obtain additional per-
sonnel requested of the Budget Director's office. Requests made for thirty-three
more employees resulted in the granting of permission to appoint one, it was re-

ported, and when a proposed transfer from another department had been arrang-
ed for this purpose no budget certificate was obtainable,

Reorganization

By Truman Seen

By HAL MILLER
Special to The LEADER

WASHINGTON, July 31—President Truman is ex-
pected to start his promised reorganization of Government

when he returns from Potsdam.

He can use his authority

under the War Powers Act, without waiting for Congress
to act on reorganization bills introduced on his request.

State Exam
Series Is Set
For Oct. 6

Special to The LEADER

ALBANY, July 31—The
State Civil Service Com-
mission announced today
that the next series of open
competitive examinations
will be held on Oct, 6, The
last series was held on July
21, except that one examin-
ation was postponed and
held last Saturady.

‘The notices of examination will
be sent to the printer probably
during th first week of August
and will be ready for the public
about the middle of that month.

So far six titles are included in
the series, but more are expected
to be added, especially if there
is any considerable increase in the
number of returning veterans,

The positions already selected
for inclusion are in the medium-
pay brackets in which the compe-
Uon is usually large.

The Classification Director test
was held Saturday because of the
number of candidates who also
filed for the position of Assistant
Administrative Director, Civil
Service Commission, (6,700.$8,.
200), Twenty-two filed for that
test, ten for the Director of Classi-

If he proceeds in this manner
Congress would later be asked to
approve the changes, which other-
\ise would be only temporary.

Congressional leaders believe
that such action would be bene-
ficial Im that it would prevent
lobbying by agencies who want to
be exempted,

One of his first acts may be to
move Reconstruction Finance Cor-
poration over to the Treasury De~-
partment, where the agency's
former boss, Fred Vinson, is now
in charge. Reduction in the num-
ber of employees might be ex-
pected from such consolidation
and from other reorganization
moves,

Long-overdue revamping of the
Federal labor agencies likely oc-
cupies a high place in such plans.
Already Secretary Schwellenback
has taken definite action toward
streamlining and coordinating ac-
tivities of the Labor Department,

The President, as part of the
reorganization, may take up the
subject of economy, This would
possibly connect with the present
Senate moves in that direction,

#cteran Preference

The provision recites the pref-
erence as established by amend~-
ment of July 26, 1944, but points
Up the fact that the yeteran must
actually be out of the military
service before the preference ap-
plies. There is a bill in Congress
to make the preference availatle
in cases of terminal leaves, but
dispatches received from Wash-
ington today indicate that no final
action on the bill need be ex-
pected in time to be effective
this year.

credit, a disabled veteran or
widow or wife of a disabled vet-
eran 10 points,

particular position reverts from
the appointing officer to the U. 8,

Unpaid Experience Credit

Credit will continue to be given
for unpald experie but it has
to be the type of experience that

for the job, and should involve

sponsible work. That restriction

Loss of overtime for failure
to wear identification badges

that a new penalty procedure
had been set up when employees

identification badges.

Por the first three offenses,

Major Decisions

Here are some major decisions:

1, The 10 per cent higher dif-
ferential for night overtime work;
the differential applies only to
the ‘regularly scheduled tour of
duty and employees will get only
overtime pay for work beyond 40
hours at night.

2.The employee must decide
whether he wants compensatory
time off for irregular overtime
worked or cash, but the agency
can set a time limit within which
time off may be requested and
taken.
3.1f an employee is lifted by
pay raises above the ceiling at
which his nomination is required
to be sent to the Senate for ap-
roval, the employee does not
ave to be nominated and con-
firmed in order to continue in

the job.
Text of Rulings

The Comptroller General's rul-
ings were transmitted by Acting
General L.

Prank
Xates sto Cleneral Pieming, Fod~

Administrator.
‘wal Pinning tenis danmeion
on a number of questions arising
under the pay Act (Public Law

106),

The General's questions and
the answers:

“Section 202 (a)

Q. Do the provisions of this
Section require the granting of
compensatory time off in lieu of
payment for overtime or may the
head of an agency by regulation
determine that all overtime shall
be paid for in money?

A. The issuance of regulations
pursuant to the section in respect
of compensatory time is not man-
datory; and it follows, therefore,
that the head of an agency may |
determine that all overtime serv-
ice ordered or approved shall be |
paid for in money.

Limitation of Period

Q. If the regulations of the
Agency permit the granting of
compensatory time off in leu of
payment for overtime, but limit
the period of time in which such
compensatory time off may be
granted, should any such over-
time to the credit of the em-
Ployee at the expiration of the
period be paid for in money?

A. Unlike the provisions of the
War Overtime Pay Act of 1943,
section 202(a) of the new statute
does not vest any discretion én
the head of an agency to grant
compensatory time off from duty;
but, on the contrary, said section
is to the effect that overtime
compensation shall be paid for
all overtime service unless an em-
ployee specifically requests com-
pensatory time off from duty in
lieu of overtime compensation for
occasional or irregular overtime
service performed in excess of 48
hours per week. However, the
head of an agency may by regu-
lation fix a limit of time within
which such compensatory time
off from duty may be requested

improper to provide by adminis-
trative regulation that upon fail-
ure of an employee to take the
compensatory time off from duty
which he had requested within
the time prescribed he would lose
his right to overtime compensa~
tion, However, there would be no
authority to deny payment of
overtime compensation where the
failure to take the compensatory
time off from duty within the
period prescribed by administra~
tive regulation was due to an
exigency of the service beyond the

ence is made to the decision of

under the provisions of the War

Commission issue
which decision may
be of assistance in formulating
administrative tions under
section 202(a) of the Federal Em-
Ployees Pay Act of 1945.

Disposition of Balance

Q Should any balance of com-
Pensatory overtime to the credit
of an employee on June 30, 1945,
be paid for at the rates in effect
on that date or at the rates in
effect at the time payment is
made?

A. This question is understood
as referring to the payment of
overtime compensation in leu of
compensatory time off from duty
which an employee failed to re-
ceive through no fault of his own
on or prior to June 30, 1945, for
overtime work performed in ex-
cess of 48 hours per week prior
to July 1, 1945, under the terms
and conditions of the War Over-
time Pay Act of 1943 and the
regulations of the Civil Service
Commission thereunder. If that
understanding of the question be
correct, you are advised that the
payment should be made at the
compensation rate in effect for
the employee as of June 30, 1945.

Night Differential
Other holdings of the Comp-
troller General:

“The night differential of 10
per cent is payable only for that
Portion of a “regularly scheduled
tour of duty” falling between 6
p.m. and 6 am. The differential
is not payable for any period out~
side of @ regularly scheduled tour
of duty. In other words, the dif-
ferential is not payable during
the period over which overtime
compensation is paid, regardless
of the time such overtime service
may be performed. When
words, “regularly scheduled tour
of duty,” are considered in con-
nection with the words, “at a

NYC Bonus;
Sign Protest

“Protest” signatures on
the NYC payrolls for July
15, tallied today, indicate
widespread dissatisfaction of
distribution of the 1945-46
cost-of-living bonus.

Loudest complaints came from
those employees in the increment
@roup who are scheduled to re-
ceive a regular increment on

4, January 1, 1946, and were there-
fore left out of the bonus distri-
bution. That was done at the
orders of Mayor LaGuardia with
the explanation that there was
to be no duplication of bonus plus
increment.

Many of the employees, how-

© ever look upon the increment as
a right after having been pro-

moted, and they feel that they

are being penalized by loss of
the bonus pay for six months.
While no figures were made!
Public, it was believed that sev-|

esting facts:

1. According to the figures of
July 20, 1945, there were only
363 Captains “In Service” out of
an “Allowed” total of 366.

2. There is no existing list
Captain, no test offered and
old list was dying.

3. If the 35 promotions were
added to the “In Service” figure
of 363 the new total would have
been “In Service” 386 Captains.

Lyons Asks City
To Stop Refusing
Tests to Vets

Borough President Lyons of the Bronx today offered
a resolution for adoption by the Board of Estimate to

insure that veterans will be

given the part of an open

competitive examination that they missed because of

military service.

‘The State Military Law requires
that the missed examinations be |
given in promotions, but does not
require them to be given in open
competitive tests. Mr. Lyons makes
the point regarding the open tests
that, “there is no law that pro-
hibits giving these specal exami-
nations.”

Tn all cases the candidate must
have passed one part of an ex-
amination, usually the mental
test. The request is often for per
mission to take the physical test

President Lyons was moved by
the case of Sgt, Marvin Altshuler
of the Bronx. He was the yeteran
to whom Civil Service Commis-
sioner Esther Bromley wrote re-
gretfully that the requested ex-
amination could not be given.
The letter appeared in full in
The LEADER last week

Mr. Lyons wrote to the Board
of Estimate:

“Sergt. Altshuler took a com-
petitive examination for Pireman
and passed the mental test prior
to his entry into military serv-
foe, He entered military service
before he had the opportunity
to take the physical examination.
He was advised on August 15,
1941 by the Civil Service Com-
mission that if he could not re-
port before August 30, 1941 he
would be given the opportunity to
take a special physical examina-
tion. A letter from James A. Der-
mody, Director of the Bureau of
Information of the Civil Service
Commission gave him this assur-
ance.

Sees No Legal Ostacle

“The Civil Service Commission
now tells him that he cannot be
given a special physical examina-
tion, but will have to await the)
reguiar examination, which may
not be held for several years. This
is unfair treatment on the part
of the City of a vete who has
served his country with distinc
tion,

“There is, however, no law that

cial examinations, It is simply a

Kings D. A. V, Acts
The executive committee of the
Disabled American Veterans of
Kings County, at a meeting held
at Livingston Manor, adopted a

resolution heartily approving ac- |

tion by the appropriate officials to
enable veterans who are appli-
cants for Civil Service positions
to take the second part of an ex-
amination, or to have the second
Part waived, Leonard J. Meisel-
man, Senior Vice-Commander,
proposed the resolution.

The Bronx D. A. V. is expected
to discuss the subject, as are
other veteran organizations. Rob-
recently elected

If favorable action by officials
cannot be obtained locally, it is)
expected that Governor Dewey
will be requested to include a
suitable amendment to the Mili-
tary Law in the agenda of the
special Legislative session due to
be held in September, though not
yet called. The main reason for
the session is State Welfare re-

Rank-and-File Voice
Vital to State Personnel

or less with changing political trends, :
workers, therefore, become the core of public service and

actually determine the efficiency and the completeness of

the service rendered,

Under the merit system, all appointments to State
service, except in the most unusual instances, are to be made
after competitive examinations, The Constituiton says “so
far as practicable” with regard both to examinations and
as to whether they shall be competitive. The courts have
pointed out that only unusual and exceptional considerations
should sway the State to recruitment by other means than
competitive examinations. The whole spirit of the merit
system calls for fitness deermined by the competitive tests,
from the highest to the lowest of the non-elective positions
in public service.

Elected officers are required to run the gauntlet of
public scrutiny and analysis as to character and fitness,

Elected officers may feel that they wish to choose depart-
ment heads and a few confidential assistants without benefit
of open-competing tests. But there is no real substitute for
the competitive type civil service test for all positions
other than the political policy-forming group at the top.

This brings up the status of the great mass of interested
public servants with reference to employment policies, The
point is brought to the fore now by the announcement by
the new State Personnel Council of its list of representa-
tives designated by each State department in connee-
tion with discussion of Personnel Council matters. The
identities of these representatives indicate that of the nine-
teen chosen, eight are outside the competitive or non-com-
petitive class. In other words, theirs are positions filled by
appointment of department heads and without competitive
test and not classified nor allocated as are the rank-and-file
positions. Of the remaining eleven representatives, prac-
tically all are in high-pay brackets. This is no criticism of
their ability or their loyalty to the service or of the wisdom
of the department heads in choosing any of these repre-
sentatives. The evidence may point quite the other way.
For the most part each is the person who has hitherto
looked after personnel matters within the respective depart-
ments for the department head.

It does emphasize the desirability and even the necessity
of greater emphasis by the Personnel Council or other desig-
nating authority to select an employee in each department
who will speak for the rank and file of competitive employees.
Where there are substantial numbers of non-competitive
employee they, too, should have a representative. A per-
sonnel board in each department composed of representa-
tives of the administrative heads and of the rank and file
is a vital need to the bringing about of that fine spirit of
cooperation which employees so much desire. There is a
pressing and timely need, and a broader competitive repre-
sentation should be adopted without delay: lest a dubious

xperiment grow into a settled practice.

Unemployment Pay Up 47 P.C. in June

ALBANY, July 31—Benefits certified for payment to unem-
ployed New York workers during June totalled $1,476,862, or 47 per
cent more than in May, according to an announcement today by
Edward Corsi, Industrial Commissioner. Benefit checks were issued
to 27,671 eligible claimants during the last week in the month,
compared with 14.496 during the last week In May,

f The Unemployment Insurance Fund totalled $954,655,990 on
June 30, @ gain of §$3,578.366 since May 31. The estimated surplus
to be allocated to qualified employers in the coming year in the
form of credits against future tax payments ix $76,500,000.

More than one-third of the increase in total benefits from
May to June was due to the upward revision in the maximum benefit

rate, effective in June, from $18 weekly to $21. More than 80 per

cent of all payments under the revised schedule during June were
made at the $21 rate
Garment Industry a Factor

Temporary unemployment in the apparel industry in NYC, cut-
backs at war plants, particularly in Buffalo, the reduction of the
waiting period from two weeks to one, and the start of a new benefit
year, were other Important factors responsible for the June increases
in unemployment benefits,

Claims of unemployed veterans for readjustment allowances
continued to increase during June to new record highs for the

program. A total of 5,171 claims were received during the last
week of the month—1,000 more than in the last week in May.
Payments during the month amounted to $298,708, compared to

$269,443 in May, Some 2,159 ex-service men received allowances
for the first time during June

David P. McKean

IT’S A LONG jump from a fire
truck to the judicial bench, but
Magistrate David P, McKean
made {t with his-recent appoint-
ment as a City Magistrate by
Mayor LaGuardia.

Back in 1938, Mr. McKean was
appointed a probationary fireman
and assigned to Hook and Ladder
Company 157, Brooklyn. The first
day he was on the job his fellow-
firemen discovered that they had
& lawyer in their midst, and ap-
Pointed him their unofficial legal
adviser. His advice enabled «
fireman to settle a case resulting
from a three-car collision and
that convinced Mr. McKean’s co-
workers that the legal rookie was

. Ke.

During the next two years,
while assigned to the Truck Com-
pany, Fireman McKean used the
time on his off tours to study
accountancy, economics and bank-
ing. In 1939, he received an extra
college degree, B.B.A.

Pretty soon, someone in Head-
quarters hears about McKean’s
legal and business training and he
was transferred to the Legal Staff
of the Department's Division of
Combustibles. In that capacity he
handled many cases arising from
infraction of fire laws and rend-
ered legal opinions to the De-
partment,

Sensitive About False Alarms

While Magistrate McKean has
a reputation of being a “good
guy” in the Pire Department, the
person who comes before him
charged with turning in a false
alarm won't find the bench sym-
pathetic. The Judge has his own
memories of being called out of
a warm bed on a cold winter
night to answer some prankster’s
call.

One of the first cases to come
before Magistrate McKean con-
cerned a woman charged with
turning in a false alarm. After
being duly admonished by the
Magistrate, she found herself fac-
ing @ ten-day workhouse term.

normal term of a City
Magistrate is ten years. is-
trate McKean got an interim
pointment that is almost as long
—nine years and one month. He
was appointed to fill out the un-
| expirea term of Magistrate Sav-
arese, who was elected Surrogate

the bench may hope for a break.
The rosewood gavel with which

c. C.F,

The act gave civil service pro-

Yes, An act of Congress ap-

leaves for atl Federal employees,
including temporary ones, except
those hired for construction work

Occupational Instructors

THE OCCUPATIONAL INSTRUCTORS form a group of em-
ployees that have been patiently awaiting classification and allo-
cation action the Department of Mental Hygiene and the
Classification Division of the Department of Civil Service.

‘The question involved in proper classification and salary allo-
cation for this group is complex in many particulars. The work
being performed by employees in this title in Mental Hygiene
hospitals differs in the emphasis placed upon therapy and upon
Production of manufactured goods. A similar difference exists in the
State school under the jurisdiction of the Mental Hygiene Depart-
ment, Some are carrying on programs directed almost entirely to
instruction of the patient or pupil, leading to the production of
Jarge amounts of manufactured goods. In other instances the pro-
gram is directed more specifically to the therapeutic value of
oecupational work. In still other cases there is a combination of
the two programs,

The Division of Classification desires first to complete its
hearings in all of the hospitals and schools before title reciassifica~
tion Is considered. The Department of Mental Hygiene has called
Meetings of the heads of the institutions specffically for the dis-
cussion of occupational therapy programs. The conferees are
attempting to find a common ground on which to base future!
Programs. The interests of employees who, because of their length |
and character of service are capable of carrying on the programs
despite lack of academic training, must be protected. I believe that |
both of the agencies mentioned are putting forth genuine efforts
to remove the inequities and inequalities between the employees
working under the title of Occupational Instructor and those work-
fng under the title of Occupational Therapist, and at the same
time to evolve a worth-while program that can be followed in the
hospitais and schools.

Duration Vacancies

The Association is concerned with a reported tendency on the
part of some department heads to overlook real helpfulness to
employees in the matter of duration promotions to positions made |
vacant in the various grades by reason of retirement, war time
absences, etc, Por example, where positions in the principal grades |
become vacant and seniors are advanced on war duration appoint-
ments, it is natural that the assistants who are undoubtedly called
‘upon to perform the duties of the positions of the seniors so
advanced, feel that they should have war duration appointments |
to the senior grade. It may seem not to involve many workers but
the advancement is of very great importance to the individuals
concerned. The civil service rules cover this procedure and sound
personnel administration demands it

Maintenance In Pension Cases

Under Chapter 784 of the Laws of 1945, “a member of the
New York State Retirement System whose retirement contributions
prior to October 1, 1843, have heen determined by the Comptroller
by fixing the value of his maintenance at one-half the cash compen- |
sation received by stich member, may, if his contributions to such
system have been reduced after October 1st, 1943 by the fixing of a
Jower value for the same maintenance theretofore furnished, elect
to have his contributions computed on the basis of the value of
such maintenance as established prior to October 1, 1943.”

‘The employee must file an election with the Comptroller if he
wishes to take advantage of this statute. We understand that the |
Comptrolle: will eventually notify the institutions or agencies affected |
of the procedure to be followed in making an election and doubtless
supply forms for use of those who wish to file. No one who wishes
the change in contributions should fail to make his election before |
April 1, 1946, regardless of any further general notice.

What State Employees Should Know |

By THEODORE SECKER

Court Reinstates Veteran Dismissed On Charges;

Notice of Contemplated Removal Was Lacking
Unlike other competitive class employees, World War I and IT
veterans, or exempt volunteer firemen, cannot be removed on
charges unless they are first given a hearing upon due notice and |
upon stated charges of incompetency or misconduct, at which
hearing they are entitled to representation by counsel.
But it is not enough to serve a
veteran with charges and to ad-
vise him that if he is an honor-
ably discharged veteran he ts en-
titled to make an oral explana-
tion and to be represented by
counsel, It must, in addition, be
made clear that if he ts found
guilty of the charges he may be
removed, In the absence of notice |
that removal on the basis of the|

to report to the official two days)
later, as ordered.

In addition, the employee was
charged with excessive latenesses
that took place during the preced-
ing three or four years,

The employee was notified to
make answer and give explanation
orally or in writing, or both, with
respect to the charges. Although

charges is contemplated, the re-/|
moval proceeding ts invalid.

The Appellate Division of the |
Supreme Court so held in a case
involving a New York City em-|
‘ee. The same principle would
ly in State service.

Removed after Long Service

The employee, a World War I)
veteran, after more than twenty-|
five years of service, during which

no charges or complaints had
been made against hin, was serv- |
ed with chfurges involving an at-

tempt to leave 45 minutes early|
on a Saturday afternoon; with|
replying to @ department official
"im a rude and insolent man-|
ner"; with being under the influ-
age of liquor; with acting “in a
joud and bolsterous manner”; and |
with failure to appear before or

he was informed in the same com~
munication containing the charges
that, if an honorably discharged |
veteran, he might be represented |
by counsel, still he appeared as a
witness without such represen-
tation,

Neo Word About Removal

The court decided that the em-
ployve apparently had no idea
that his removal was sought and
that he did not appreciate the
fact that if found guilty he would
be deprived of his pension rights.

So far as the lateness charges
were concerned, the court pointed
out that neither the present ap-
pointing officer nor his prede-
cessor had complained or warned
the employee of tardiness. The

employee cited the fact that had

the charges pertaining to his
lateness been preferred against
him, under the rules and regula-
tlons for employees of the depart-
ment, they should have been re-
ferred to the so-called Personnel
Board, and that the practice of
the department for years has been
to recommend deductions in sal-
ary in cases of excessive and In-
excusable lateness. The court
concluded, therefore, that there
was nothing in the charges to
put the employee on notice that
he would possibly be dismissed.
Law Requires Notice
The Court stated:

“Section 22, sub-division 2 of
the Civil Service Law reads as
follows:

“The person whose removal is
sought shall have written notice
of such proposed removal and of
the reasons therefor and shall be
furnished with a copy of any
charges preferred against him and |
shall be allowed a reasonable time
for answering the same in writ-
ing.”

“We are of the opinion that
the notice which was served upon
the petitioner did not comply
with the provisions of the law.
There is nothing in it which
might lead one to believe that
the petitioner was one ‘whose
removal is sought.’ The penalty
imposed would seem to be drastic,

“The failure of the commission-
er (the removing officer) to com-
ply with the provisions of Section
22 of the Civil Service Law ts such
as to render the proceeding in-
valid.”

“GREATER New York |

OREO Reem eee ROHR TEER EEE EEHEEEEEE EHH E EES O EEE EES

A great war production city. Very few
people know it—but New York has
been one humming arsenal all through
the war.

Sub-chasers made in the Bronx
« .. Airplanes in Queens . . . Bomb
sights in Brooklyn . . . Radar equip-
ment in Manhattan. The complete
S list is endless, astounding.

ToMORRO™
ae, Bei) Greater in manufacturing than any other city.

A lot of people are surprised at
that statement, too! They think of
New York mainly as a city of stores
and offices.

New York City leads America in
manufacturing. Nearly 50% greater
than the next city—Chicago. Two and
a half times the peacetime manufac-
turing output of either Philadelphia or
Detroit. (No disrespect to those cities!)

We're lucky in New York—our huge production facilities are distributed among
many thousands of plants. Activity doesn’t depend on one industry alone—or
even two or three.

That’s a big reason why returning servicemen will find New York business
ready with the opportunities they want. (Local plants recently surveyed tell us
they expect to employ 37% more people after the War than they did before.)

Hence all the stuff of which good times are made exists here: tremendous manu-
facturing facilities; a pent-up demand for goods; business eager to launch new
and improved products . . . and—under enterprising private management—an
abundance of dependable electric power to make those plans practical.

Jobs in Industry
Still Plentiful

Conditions in the fluctuating labor market are of
importance to job-hunters. Figures prepared by the War
Manpower Commission, made public today, show the
changing trend in employment.

‘Two full months after V-E Day, ,;§ — <<

demands for workers in New York
State continued high, Mrs, Anna
M, Rosenberg, Regional Director
of ¢he War Manpower Commis-
sion, said, The June total was
136,571, or 28% more than in May
and 26% in excess of the June,
1944, record,

Despite cutbacks in some war
contracts, federal employment of-
fices in the State filled 58,737
jobs in essential non-agricultural
industries, excluding canneries, a
rise of 18% over May. While
placements in ordnance, aircraft
and non-ferrous metal plants con-
tinued to drop because of lowered |
production, workers were supplied
in substantially greater numbers
to firms producing stone, clay,
glass, lumber, iron and steel prod-
ucts, chemicals, textiles, and ap-
Parel,

Seasonal Jobs

Increased seasonal activity on
and in food processing
plants, and sharply rising de-
mands for shipyard and raflroad
workers were largely responsible
for the substantial total increase
of job placements during June.

Tneluded in the high June total,
Mrs, Rosenberg pointed out, were
43.530 day-by-day job assignments
of alien laborers, prisoners of war,
migrant laborers and workers
from local labor pools, largely to
farms and food processing plants,
Only 17,633 such daily assign-|
ments were made during May. |

The rising tide of returning
war veterans resulted in 8,170)
placements of ex-service men as

Against 7.374 in May.

Homefront Jobs

There is still need for many/
more workers on the homefront.
Job-freeze regulations of the War
Manpower Commission are still in
effect, and one of the quickest
ways to land a job, or change to
& more essential job, is through
the offices of the U.S. Employment
Service. Transfer rules of the
WMC provide that no worker now
employed in an essential activity
may transfer to another job with-
out a Statement of Availability;
and no male workers who are be-|
tween 18 and 48 years of age may)
accept another job without a re-/|
ferral card from the United States
Employment Service or its desig-
nated agency, |

Listed below are some of the/
current Job opportunities: |

WASHINGTON, July 31
—New standards adopted
for the telephone operation

ustify it, the U. S. Civil

nounced today.

ous restricted lines,

Agencies Notified

Long-distance operating is
found in CAF-2, $1,440, and CAP-
3, $1,620, instead of in CAP-2
alone. The allocation now depends
upon combination of operating
duties with other duties or upon
the difficulty and complexity of
the work,

Telephone-information operat-
ing positions are eligible in CAP-
2 and CAF-3, The allocation de-
pends on the nature of the infor-
mation to be provided, how it Is
obtained, the amount of judg-
ment involved in determining the
correct answers, and upon wheth-
er the organization or the agency
is complex and the organization
changes frequent.

A letter has been sent to the
heads of agencies notifying them
of the revised standards and the
steps necessary for reallocation.

Queen Elected
Bronx D.A.V. Head

Robert I. Queen, World War IT
veteran, was elected County Com-
mander the Bronx Disabled
American Veterans by an over-
whelming majority vote. Past
County Commander Harry J,
Foster, who also ran, asked for
a motion from the floor that Mr.
Queen be unanimously elected and
withdrew his own name from the
ballot,

Mr. Queen is the first World
War I veteran to command a

ployment, and Director of County
Public Relations, since May of
1943. He has attended meetings
with officials of the War Man-
power Commission, United States
Civil Service Commissions, Veter-
ans Administration, and the
United States Employment Serv~
ice, endeavoring to create # closer
working cooperation between the
agencies and the veterans’ organ-
(aations,

New pay rates for substitute

regularly works 48 hours a week,
the average annual salary thus
amounts to $2,346.24,

“All basic salary is subject to a

“In addition to the basic salary,
10 per cent additional is paid for

She says that the termites eat

Veterans Await Official Decision

On Vital Rights to Re-emplo

ECTION 8 of the Selective Service and

ment
‘raining Act of 1940 pro-

vides that the veteran of World War I has a right to his old
= when he returns from military duty. Just how that section is

to be applied is a problem which is now faced by
officials. and the outcome may affect the rights
of 15,000,000 men in uniform.

Tt all came to the fore when # young vet-
eran of this conflict was reinstated to his job,
but this involved replacing a World War I

veteran with

credit for time in service), With
production cutbacks and military |
discharges coming at the same)
time this particular problem is
ene which will recurr in many
thousands of instances.

‘The Selective Service Law, which
was enacted long before Pearl
Harbor, when men were being
called up for what was expected
to be merely a year's military)
training before their return to
civilian life, says nothing about!
World War I veterans. Pearl
bor changed the whole picture, but |
Section 8 has never been altered
or claorified—nor hes it been
finally interpreted. |

This is the first time the prob-
Jem has come before any Govern-
ment agency in so definite a form,
although the general question has|
been kicked around Washington
for 18 months. |

The question concerns practic-
ally every labor union with a)
seniority syystem, and also such |
veterans’ organizations as the|
American Legion and the Veterans
of Foreign Wars.

Veterans and West Point

Young men now in service who
want to continue their military)
careers will have their way to a|
commission in the Regular Army
eased if a bill recently reported
out by the House Military Com-
mittee is adopted, It lifts the}
maximum age limit for admission
to the West Point Military Aca-
demy from 22 to 24 for veterans

t war,

The bill (H.R, 1123) provides
that appointments of cadets to
West Point may be made up to
the age of 24 instead of the pres-
ent age of 22, provided that such
appointees must have served hon-
orably in the armed forces during
the present war for at least one
year.

16,000 Veterans Placed in June |
Last month 16,000 veterans got |
Federal jobs through the U. S|
Civil Service Commission, bring-|
ing the six-months total 95,000, it
was revealed today.
For 2" years the total is 374,-

The monthly average is steadily
increasing.

In N. ¥. State the June place-
ments in the Federal service were
1,867, the largest number of total
veteran placements in June was
made in the War Department.
The Navy Department was next.
The Post Office, the Veterans Ad-
ministration, the OPA and the
Treasury Department were high
on the list.

G.I, Doesn't Forget Postal Zone

NYC Postmaster Albert Gold- |
man announced that our armed
forces overseas are very anxious
to get mail home quickly.

"There is a remarkably good)
percentage of mail being received)
with postal delivery zone numbers

Mayor's Veto

Higher Pay Ceiling to
Playground Directors

The situation of long-t
Parks Department was over!

in vetoing bills to increase the maximum salary and in-
crement range of Playground Directors, said Councilman

Louis Cohen (Dem., Bronx).

In his message to the Council,
LaGuardia said

“There is no reason for this
bill. The position of Playground
Director is and never has been in-
tended to be @ permanent job to
be held indefinitely running into

old age. It is, as I pointed out in|

this year's Budget Message, special
work for young people, mostly
graduates of institutions of higher
education who intend to take up
teaching or other professions and
want this position for the sole
purpose of gaining necessary ex-
perience, It requires young people
with enthusiasm, Experience has
indicated that older people do not
make good Playground Directors.
They do not have the patience;
they become indifferent; they are
irritable and get in the children’s
