b Bills Are
Introduced

Spectal to The LEADER

ALBANY, Jan, 29—Pive bills in
the legislative program of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees marked the start of the
introduction of that organization's
measures in the present session
of the State Legislature. The 5
were:

Unemployment Insurance bill.
Introduced by Senator Halpern
and Assemblyman Barrett, this
Measure would include State em-
Ployees in the benefits of une:
ployment insurance. Now if a
State employee loses his Job he
has no benefit of any such in-
surance, The bill contemplates an
‘agreement between the State and
the Federal Government for State
reimbursement of Federal pay-
ments made to’ State employees
who lose their jobs.

Time Service bill. This was in-
troduced by Assemblyman Barrett
and considerably modifies the bill
that he introduced last year. The
object is to prevent dead-end jobs,
by providing tenure increments
The employee, after serving 5
years in the maximum of a Feld-
Hamilton grade, is to get one in-
crement, another after a total of
10 years and another after a total
of 15 years. Hence the measure
is also referred to as the 5-10-15
bill, It is limited to employees
receiving less than $4,000.

Hospital Nurse bill, This would

lift the Hospital Nurses in the
Department of Mental Hygiene
into the Professional Service

_ ($1,800-$2,300), whereas now they
are in the Sub-Professional Serv-
doe ($1,600-$2,100)

The Merit Award bill. This was
introduced by Senator Halpern
and Assemblyman VanDuzer, It
follows the General Electric Com-
pany's and the Navy's

leading to administrative improve-
ments,

“The Forest Ranger bill. Now in
the exempt class, the Rangers
‘would be brought under the Feld-
Hamilton schedules. Introduced
by Senator Stokes and Assembly-
man Lawrence.

Other Bills Ready

After Governor Dewey's budget
goes in, the Association will ar-
range for the introduction of bills
to give war emergency compensa-
tion, the same as provided in the
Governor's budget for depart-
mental employees, to employees
of the judiciary and the legis-
Jature. These bills have already
been drafted,

Other Association bills already
ready for introduction relate to
minimum pensions and to vesting
Of retirement allowance, also
Known as deferred retirement
allowances, These are two new
bills to carry out the program of
the Association's committee, Two
memos on these bills have been
drawn,

“We hope to appoint 4,300
Patrolmen between now and July

| Arthur W. Wallander said today.
“By that time we expect to
achieve our quote of 18,790. We
are appointing men as fast as
possible now.”

The Commissioner added that}
he has asked the Municipal Civil

tions, so he can promote 6 Patrol-
men to Sergeants and 3 Sergeants
to Lieutenants, to fill vacancies.

request the holding of promotion
examinations, he answered in the
negative, and cited the fact that
the existing lists have ample time
to run, before the 4-year legal
limit of life is reached. He knew
the expiration dates from memory.

The expiration dates of the
Police promotion lists follow:
Expires

Lieutenant Nov. 9, 1947
Captain . Feb. 8, 1947,

Police Lists Revised

Promotions are expected’to be
made as soon as practicable from
the existing lists, The chief dim-
culty is the manpower shortage.
Promotions have to be supported
by recrultments, so the ranks can
be filled, Also, revision of the lists
to comply with the veteran prefer-
ence amendment is necessary. The
Police Captain promotion list was
the first one thus revised (pub-
lshed in The LEADER last week).
The Patrolman list has been r
vised since then. These two, and
the Trackman (Board of Trans-
portation) list gave the first
opportunity to assay the effects
of veteran preference on both pro-
notion and open-competitive

Permanent Pay Drive —

To Be Fortified By
Listing Of Salary Facts

Special to ‘The ng

ALBANY, Jan, 29—Charles M
Armstrong, Chairman of the Sal-
ary Committee of the State Asso-
cintion of State Civil Service Em- |
Ployees, spoke confidently today
of the effect that a salary listing
to be issued by the Association
should have on salary increases to
be superimposed next year on this
year's raises,

“The listing setting forth the
facts as to the salaries paid to
New York State employees and
which the Committee hopes will
make wholly clear the need for
substantial increases in State
pay,” said Mr. Armstrong, “is well
on its way to publication.”

Mr. Armstrong noted that the
basis for the State Association's
plea is already well known to
State officials.

“Tt rests primarily upon the dire
need of many thousands of State
workers for income to meet the
increase in cost of essentials of
individual family life,” added Mr,
Armstrong, “It is likewise a con-
cern of State government because
to retain and recruit efficient
workers the State must compete
with private wage scales which |
in industry generally have kept
pace with rising living costs and |
are 45 per cent higher than in

pre-war,” continued Mr,

+| strong.

Referring to data bearing upon
wages and salaries, a spokesman

for the Association pointed to &| this

recent statement of the General
Electric Company showing that its
hourly rate in 1935 was 72 cents
whereas in September, 1945, it
was $1.09, an increase of approxi-
mately 46 per cent.

“And an additional increase in
General Electric salaries seems to
await only agreement Lp tor
the Company and its emplo} ial
added the spokesman.

In this connection, reference
was also made by the Association
to a recently reported observation
of Lloyd K. Garrison, of President
Truman's Fact-finding Commit-
tee, that salaries and wages in
industry had risen in about the
same ratio.

Dr, Frank L. Tolman, President
of the State Association, stated
that active Interest was apparent
among the over 600,000 civil serv-
{ee workers in municipal and Ped-
teal positions within the State, in
the Association’s efforts to’ make
known the tremendous need of
State employee for substantial
salary relief.

Eyes on Dewey and Legislature

Speaking of the task of stand-

ardization and rectification of

basis, Dr. Tolman said:

“Public employees generally, of
whom there are very many in
State, will have eyes focused
upon the Governor and the Legis-
Iture and the policy which
adopt with reference to the real
wages of workers. It is a difficult
and complex problem.

“However, with the facts before
them as to final inadequacy of
emergency adjfistments, we have
every hope that the State of New
York will meet the salary issue
in a clearcut and practical man-
ner.”

Need Recognized

“Federal employees will have a
substantial offset to living costs
in the total 36 per cent increase
voted by ah United States Senate
for those lower salary
grades and el the graduated in-
creases for the higher salary
brackets.

“Recognition of the need for
| salary adjustments in Federal pay
| was ‘general on the part of the
| United States Senators from New
York, all adjoining states, and by
a large majority of the members
of the Senate and we feel this is
the common thought among our
leaders of State government at
this time.”

An enthuslastic group of State |
employees spent an informative
interesting evening at the
Town Hall Meeting of the NYC

Chapter of the Association of
State Civil Service Employees,
held at the Washington Irving

High School auditorium

‘The meeting was opened by the
President of the Chapter, Charles
R. Culyer, who explained that
William K. Hopkins, of the Law
Department, chairman of the em-
ployee committee which arranged
for the event, was unable to at-
tend because of a death in his
family.

Mr. Culyer introduced the first
speaker, Joseph Schechter, Coun-
gel of the State Civil'Service Com-
talssion, who praised the idea of}
the open meeting as o valuable
means of acquainting the State
employees with the {acts of Civil
Service which play an important
part in tneir lives. His talk was
on a 2-fold topic. “Kecjing up

He stressed that preference to|

to December 31, 1950 or to 5 years
from the veterans’ date of dis-

He listed 5 qualifications which |

layoffs. He also explained the
means by which an employee could

The second speaker was Dep-
uty State Comptroller Edwin B.|
Kenngott, who presented best|
wishes and greetings from State
Comptroller Frank C, Moore.
Devoting his time to an en-
lightening discussion of the State
Retirement System, Mr, Kenngott
stated that the purpose of the
Comptroller was to make the op-
erations of the System under~

the Retirement office. He urged
employees to take advantage of
their opportunity to write to the
Retirement office for full explana-
tion of any retirement matters on
which they were doubtful

4, interesting point mentioned
by Mr. Kenngott is the fact that
the Comptroller's staff is being
reclassified to allocate many em-

ployees to their proper salary
group.

Among recent changes, Mr.
Kenngott listed the installation

of automatic office equipment to
speed up the posting of accounts,
and explained that bills to be pro-
posed to the legislature would
not, in any manner, reduce the
benefits of employees, but would
simplify the retirement law, mak-
ing it a readable and understand-
able document for the employees.
He noted considerable interest
among employees in the 55-year
retirement proposal of the Asso-
ciation.

.WATCHMAN, WHAT OF THE NIGHT? °

“NEW YORK ADVANCING, Victory Edition” aims to give the
true official picture of NYC in the last year of war and the first
half year of peace, Planning plays a Jarge part in this popul
report to the people on the stewardship of Mayor LaGuardia an
his official family.

In the section devoted to the work of the Civil Service Com-
mission, plans for post-war civil service are briefly outlined.

The first and most important task is to end the makeshifts
and special regulations which were required by the manpower situa-
tion during the war period. Temporary and war duration appoint-
ments and promotions must be abandoned. Examinations must be
raised to their former selective potentialities and universally used
in selecting from the best qualified candidates that can be interested
in the public service. Salaries must be adjusted to present market
prices for high ability, Merit and fitness must again be the objec-
tives of the commission, “An accelerated advance” toward the
improvement of the Civil Service has already begun and must be
continued, The entire functional organization of the Civil Service
has been revised. A “streamlined set-up" is prepared to cope with
the new problems of the new era,

DIFFICULTIES EXIST

The new veteran, the war worker, the generation of young nien
and women who eft school and college, the new municipal services
—all these present difficulties in: providing a fair field and no favors
to all those who seek to serve the city and the city’s citizens. Im-
provement in classifications, better public relations, better rules and
regulations, more selective examinations, better induction and in-
service training—these are some of the civil service devices which
will keep the city advancing.

What of New York State? The Governor has painted a bright
picture of the future of the commonwealth, but we have as yet
no word from the State Civil Service Commission as to its polities
and problems,

Does the State Civil Seryice Department plan to reconvert to
peace and if so, will it do a thorough. job of reconversion swiftly?

Is reconversion enough? Should not the State Civil Service
Commission plan for the future rather than merely look back to the
past? Is merit and fitness to be the slogan for the future? Is the
door of opportunity to be opened for the great mass of the people
or will that door admit only those who know the pass word. Will
incentive pay be used to attract unusual ability to the service of
the State, and to keep it there? Will politics or patriotism prevail?

Readers of this column may re-
call the report on the mix-up in

the civil service status of three
telephone operators in the City of
Yonkers when the 16-year-old
transfer of one of them to another
position was Javed egal by
the courts,

The story, recounted in the
March 1945 column, told of

the plight of a Board of Edu
tlon operator who, after appoint-
ment from an open competitive
list in 1927, was transferred by
the Supevintendent of Schools to
& position of registrar. The
position this operator left wi
filled by the appointment of
another eligible from the same
list in 1928. In 1936, after a
second telephone operator posi-
tion had been established, the
third operator was appointed.

Things went along smoothly for
7 years, Then a court action was
brought by a former registrar,
which resulted in a judicial
declaration that the transfer of
the first operator to the registrar
position had been illegal

How First Act Ended

As a result of such court case,
the Board of Education restored
the first operator to her old posi-
tion and, having only two tele~
phone operator positions, dis-
missed the third operator. The
latter took the case to court and
succeeded in getting a decision

that, while the transfer of the
first operator may haye been il-
legal, still she had acquiesced in
it and, therefore, could not prej-
udice the rights of the second
and third operators who had been
legally appointed to their jobs.
This left the first operator “out
in the cold.” ‘Thus ended the first
| act of this courtroom drama.
The moral then drawn was—
The illegality of your own trans-

fer cannot prejiidice the em-
ployee appointed to fill the job
that you vacate. So make sure
your transfer is yalld to. start
with,”

The Second Act

In not upholding her reinstate-

The higher court noted that the
transfer had been made by the
telephone operator's superiors;
that the operator was not to
blame if the transfer turned out
to be illegal; that the error had
been properly rectified by restor-
ing her to her old job and drop-

the least seniority of the three,

Conclusion to Be Drawn

If the latest decision in the case
stands, then an appointee from a |
list to an apparently unclaimed
vacancy cannot be certain that
his tenure will not be challenged
as the result of an improper

having greater seniority. This

for the insurance of loans of mem-
bers as described hereafter. |

1.—INSURANCE OF LOANS

It has been a modern develop-
ment during the last fifteen years
for finance companies, banks, and
other loaning institutions to ar-|
range for the insurance of loans
in the event of the death of the
borrower, Thus the creditor insti-
tution is protected and no loss Is
incurred by the estate of the bor-
rower, which is a highly desirable
objective. When a member finds
it necessary to borrow, there is
probably a greater economic need
by his dependents than in the
case of a non-borrowing member.
The Committee believes that with
operating safeguards the
{f the insurance feature could
yt within 1 per cent of the
t income on loan!
s true that the greater con-
tribution accumulations of the
older members combined with the
greater risk of death at the older
ages and the fact that a member
has the right to request a loan at
any time present certain problems
so that som sti Lions would be
necessary Committee feels

The
that with proper safeguards the

able and has con- |

proposal is work:
restrictions, |

sidered the follo
Le.

(a) ‘That the maximum insur-
ance on loans be limited to $1,000. |

(b) That there be a waiting
period of 60 or 90 days before the
insurance shall become effective,
during which time the member
be on the payroll at full
salary.

(c)} That the law provide that
insurance on loans shall be paid
from a sum made up by taking
50 per cent of the annual loading
charges or some lower amount and
that such fund shall, so far as
possible, be self-supporting with
the right to the Comptroller to
change the maximum limit of in-
surance at any age, change the
waiting period, or adopt other
rules within his discretion.

The fact that there is a fairly
constant demand for loans by
members who are in good health
should warrant consideration of
the proposal. A substantial volume
of insurance (say $9,000,000)
could be secured on present ex-
isting loans,

11.—HOSPITAL OPTIONS

At present members of the New
York State Hospital Retirement
System receive a retirement allow- |
ance which terminates on their
death, Members of this system
¢annot select an option to protect
their wives and children, We
recommend an amendment which
would give the members of this
system options similar to those
contained in the New York State
Employees’ Retirement System so
that they can select the retire-
ment allowance which will meet
the needs of their families,

Preference Serves Youth;
Large Effect Is Assured

yl eg first announcement of NYC eligible lists revised
on the basis of the veteran preference amendment,
which principally grants to non-disabled veterans a prefer-
ence that did not previously exist, shows that the effect
of preference will be large.

The number of lists made public to date is too small,
and an insufficient number of representative groups have
been covered, to make comprehensive observations pos-
sible. Yet the doubt previously expressed by some that
the promotion lists are not likely to be seriously affected
for a long time, is completely resolved. Some pro-
motion and a high percentage of open-competitive lists
previously promulgated will be subject to a very large
change, The same general effect will be produced on
lists to be promulgated.

The list for promotion to Captain (P.D.) was the
first one announced in revised form by the NYC Civil
Service Commission, There were no disabled veterans
on the list. The 26 veterans out of the existing list of 63
moved up an average of nearly 15 places, The smallest
numerical advances were made by those now among the
top dozen, who moved up an average of nearly 5 positions.
But the trailers among the non-veterans showed the
smallest change. The last 5 men on the list moved down
only an average of one position.

How Non-Veterans Fared

Among the non-veterans, however, was the former
No, 1 eligible, who, under the revision, slid into 27th
place, No. 2 of yesterday is No. 28 today. The former No.
6 is now No. 29. The average for the men who formerly
constituted the first 5 is a drop of 24 positions.

This is the telling count that gives with full force the
effect of preference. The tally would be unchanged if
there were disabled veterans on the list, since they would
simply be among the 26 veterans, the disabled preceding
the non-disabled,

Two other revised lists announced include the
open-competitive ones of Trackman (Board of Trans-
portation) and Patrolman (P.D.). These lists consist pre-
dominantly of veterans, because they are male lists and
call for duties which are attractive to men who were within
the unlimited service draft category, Besides, previous
prpgintment of non-veterans raised the veteran represen-
ation,

A young man’s list will consist largely of veterans,
and preference will adyance the disabled ahead of the
non-disabled.

Effect on Promotion List

It is in the promotion egory, however, that the
State and city employees have the greatest interest. Pro-
motion lists are likely to be small, especially as promotions
ave often restricted to employees of a given department,
or even of a division or bureau. Small lists will be hard to

until a large number of them haye been recast
ing to the preference law, for otherwise they rep-
resent more or less isolated cases. For the higher positions

the preference effect may be expected to be amaller on
promotion lists, except where the positions require physical
ag and prowess, like Captain (P.D.). Preference
otherwise seems particularly to be a young man’s paradise,

Clean Slate on Overtime
And Vacations Is a Necessity

AYMENT by the State-for unused vacation and for

past overtime, at regular rates, but including even
such overtime as may not have been within the terms of
a too-strict law, would wipe the slate clean. For this
proposal the Association of State © Service Employees
should be enthusiastically applauded,

Work performed during extra hours, whether during
a period that would otherwise represent vacation, or
during periods additional to the regular work day or week
should be paid for as a matter of conscientious principle
and simple justice, Even admitted lack of authority for
overtime payment during a single fiscal period, or, as to
accumulated overtime only when there were unfilled
positions in the budget, presented precautions now

found to have been unnecessary. They were taken to
insure gaining some benefit for the employees, while
protecting the State. Charges upon the State treasury

in great excess of what the Administration might have
deemed acceptable were in no danger of occurrence,

When one deals with work already done, the pos-
sibility of enormity, often a mirage, most certainly does
not exist. No sound argument can be presented in oppo-
sition to a proposal to pay a man or a women for the
work that he or she has done, It would not be in keeping
with the democratic system to continue insisting on dis-
arity between bases of payment in privateindush'y and

government,

IRVING H. SAYPOL
IN 1921 Irving H. Saypol got a

job as an etrand boy, working
after school hours, dashing all
over town, picking up briefs for
attorneys and delivering them to
courthouses all over town, His
pay was $5 a week. Now he’s
First Assistant U. 8. Attorney for
the Southern District of New
York. Friends who have known
him since boyhood say that they
fully expected such a rise to take
place, because he possessed so ob-
viously all the qualities of good
citizenship, industry, fairness and
the brains that make for advance-
ment,

Throughout college, he hung on
to the messenger boy work, thus
proving that he really was indus-
trious, and next started a similar
business together with his wife.
He still maintains an interest in
the United Lawyers Service,

Works Under McGohey

The scope of legal matters
handled by the U. S. Attorney's
office is large and includes civil as
well as criminal cases, The U. 5,
Attorney, John F. X. McGohey
(also a LEADER Merit Man)
directs the activities, and ap-
preciates Mr. Saypol's effective
assistance. Immigration, nar-
cotics, income tax, and black
market cases are among the many
on the current calendars.

Mr. Saypol likes our legal sys-

tem.

“Of all legal systems,” he says,
“ours is the best. People don't
realize it, but there is a great
informality in the law. It isn't at
all rigid, There's a lot of com~-
mon sense in it—and like all
common sense, it contains its
minutae of stupidity, too.”

He watches currently the deve-
lopments in administrative law
(that is—law administered by
governmental agencies) with two
views:

“As our civilization becomes
more complex, such law takes in
ever more activities. On the other
hand, law so administered can be-
come more oppressive if we aren't
areful. It sometimes happens in
administration bodies that the
man who makes an investigation
is also the judge of @ case.”

Mr, Saypol would like to see

the law and the facts of cases
which come up before admini-
strative agencies.

Inadequate Checks

“As it-4s now,” he feels, “ad-

ministrative law creates a hybrid
division of Government which has
the power almost of life and
death over citizens, And there are
inadequate checks of this power
as yet.”
In 1927 and 1928, he served as
a competitive civil service em-
ployee in the NYC Law Depart-
ment, and between 1929 and 1934
he was Assistant Corporation
Counsel,

Then he went into private prac-
tice, serving intervals as coun-
gel to various committees of the
State Legislature. He helped the
Committee on the Judiciary of the
New York State Constitutional
Convention in 1938, as Counsel,

He is square of build
above middie height, with a
rugged, pleasant face. He likes to
walk around while he's talking
dresses simply, and lke as not
you'll find him with o cigar or
pipe in his mouth.

ASKED BY

Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, Jan, 29—In his
en to Congress, President

man emphasized the need for
fn upward revision of Federal
@mployees’ salaries, to stop the
sacrifices that workers make to
yserve the Government. He called
‘for unemployment compensation

‘employees who lose
through reduction in force.
‘The President said:
“The rapid reconversion of the
Pederal Government from war to
ce is reflected in the demo~-
jon of its civilian person-
mel. The number of these em-
; vg in continental United
ites has been reduced by more
protimately 2.900.000 employed in
900, employe
the final months of the war, I
| expect that by next June we shall
have made a further reduction of
, 1 magnitude and that there
be continuing reductions dur-
ing the next fiscal year, Of the
special wartime agencies now re-
maining, only a few are expected
to continue actively into the next
year.

i) Namber of Workers Reduced

+ “At the same time that we have
urtatied the number of em-
; we have shortened the
‘work-week by one-sixth or more

have restored holidays.
“The process of readjustment

,Surnover in the remaining per-
gonnel—particularly by the loss
of some of our best administra~
tors. Thousands of war veterans
have been reinstated or newly
employed in the civil service.
Many civillans have been trans-
ferred from war agencies to their
* former peacetime agencies. Re-
/,erultment standards, which had
to be relaxed during the war, are
now being tightened.

but by no means offset by the

advantage to serve the nation.

Plea for Adequate Salaries

“Adequate salaries will result in
economics and improved effi-
ciency In the conduct of govern-
ment business—gains that will far
outweigh the immediate costs. I
hope the Congress will ite
action on salary legislation for all
Federal employees in all branches
of the government.

“The only exception I would
make is in the case of workers
whose pay rates are established
by wage boards; a blanket ad-
justment would destroy the sys-
tem by which their wages are
kept aligned with prevailing rates
in particular localities, The wage
boards should be sensitive now,
as they were during the war, to
changes in local prevailing wage
rates and should make adjust-
ments accordingly.

Health and Safety

“I hope also that the Congress
may see fit to enact legisintion
for the adequate protection of the
health and safety of Federal em-
ployees, for their coverage under
a system of unemployment com-
pensation, and for thelr return at
Government expense to their
homes after separation from war-
time service."

“If we are going to be fair to
Government workers," Mr, Ran-

“we should see that they get in-
creases comparable to those in
private industry. It appears that
industrial increases will average
between 16 and 20 per cent, And
I will put up a fight to see that
they: get it.”

Mr, Randolph, of course, is only

House, But as chairman of the
Civil Service Committee, he is tn

Truman Ask

By CHARLES SULLIVAN

Sbecial to The LRADKA

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 — The

* *LEADER can now reveal that sur-
viyor’s insurance for Federal em-
ployees apparently is just around
the corner.

‘Tt may take a few months. Con-|

eeivably, it might take a year,
» But one way or another, it’s defi-
nitely coming—and when it ar-
? wives, Federal workers will find it

those covered by Social Security—
already have survivor's insurance.

run as high as $85 per month.
#}» Now Government workers are
going to get the same thing.

‘The Ciyil Service Commission,
which administers the Federal
| employees’ retirement, has its ex-
| perts at work, grinding out the
YY details of a .urvivor’s insurance

“Restore Peace Jobs,

will be fairly apt to up to 11 per)
cent proposed by the Senate. |

Also, there's a growing feeling |
that House action on the pay bill
will wait the outcome of current
industrial disputes. Mr. Randolph,
for one, thinks {t unlikely the
House will be willing to act while
major strikes are still In progress.

And for that reason it’s quite
possible that his committee hear-
ings on the bill, now tentatively
scheduled to start about February
1, will be postponed,

Incidentally, Mr. Randolph has
changed his mind—and decided
he wants very brief hearings.

Truman's Aide
Has a Soft Spot
For U. S. Workers)

Special to The LEADER |
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29—Inside
word here fs that Robert L. Mc-
Keever, recently appointed by
President Truman as liquidator of
the war agencies, intends to make
it one of his chief jobs to see that
the liquidation hits U, 8. workers
with the least possible impact.
The executive order setting up
Mr, McKeever's position mave him
two main jobs:
1, To expedite liquidation,
2. To do everything possible to
aid Federal workers who lose their

s Congress

| ‘This plan definitely will be sub-
| mitted to Congress as soon as it's
ready. And there's good reason
| to, believe Congress will approve,

The biggest question before the
| Civil Service experts is this: Can
| the Federal Retirement system af-|
|ford to pay survivors benefits
without increasing the present 5-
per-cent-of-your-salary reduction |
for retirement,

The Commission's actuaries are
inclined to say “No,”

Prospects of Employee Cost

But other Commission officials
—including some very high ones—
are definitely skeptical, They
think the Federal employee Re-
tirement Fund—it now has more
than $2,000,000,000 invested as a
pool for the payment of retire-
ment claims--is quite capable of
supporting retirement insurance.

And they are taking something
of a “show me” attitude towards
the figures of the actuaries.

Good bet: Federal employees
will get survivor's insurance, And
they'll get it without an increase
in the & per cent deduction.

Health Bill And Pension Aid
Getting Fast Congress Action

Special to The LEAD

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29—Two

' portant pieces of Federal em-
wee legislation now are ticketed
jor fast action in Congress

1. The Federal employee health
bill, which would let U. 8. agencies
set Up medical units to safeguard
the health of employees.

2. A bill to give former Federa’
employees who retired before 1942
the same pensions as those who
Fetired after that date,

‘The health bill has been ap-
proved by the House, but waits

approved once by the Senate Civil
Service Committec, but was sent

sideration by the committee.

While it proposes that Federal

BILL PROVIDES
DOUBLE PAY
FOR HOLIDAYS

Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29-—A
bill to provide double pay for
Federal employees who are re-
‘quired to work on holidays has
been introduced into the House
of Representatives and referred
to the House Civil Service Com-
mittee.

The bill, introduced by Rep-
resentative Green of Pennsyl-
vania, ides that employees
required to work on any day set
by Federal statute or Executive
order as a holiday shall receive
double the basic rate of pay.

Federal employees have long
considered the lack of extra
holiday compensation a source
of complaint. The Green bill
has been approved by the Amer-
ican Federation of Government
Employees.

_ So eee

eral employment, there {s a large
dose of hope for U. 8. workers in
the way it restores thousands of
peacetime jobs which were elimi-
nated during the war. Fi

The new budget anticipates that
Pederal employment will drop, by
June 1947, to 1,600,000 employees
—or almost 1,000,000 less than
the total today, That, of course,
is a tremendous decrease. And It
means that thousands of U. 8.
workers who would like to keep
on working for Uncle Sam inevi-
tably will find it necessary to seek
other jobs,

Second Look

However, the budget definitely
is worth a second look, and here's
why:

‘The reduction it proposes will
be made at the expense of “war
work.”

In agency after agency, how-
ever, thousands of peacetime jobs
will be restored.

And in agency after agency, jobs
which were considered of an
“emergency” nature during the
war have now been shifted over
to the “regular” payroll, with
every expectation that they will
be continued,

A good example of the latter
situation is Bureau of Labor Sta-
tistics, which developed vastly
more comprehensive Inbor figures
during the war than it had pre-
viously, And no doubt will be au-
thorized by Congress to keep on
compiling them,

The Veterans Administration
has issued regulations with respect

ployees Compensation Commisaion
may not be jeopardized,

The regulations are In consider-

U.S. Weighs
1-Year Limit
To Its Lists

Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29—The
U. 5, Civil Service Commission has

revealed that the task of estab-
Ushing new regulations, looking
toward the end of all war-service
regulations, will be such a large
one, that the new conditions must
not be expected to become effec-
tive before March 1,

Just what the regulations will
provide, the Commission itself
does not fully know now, but in-
dications are that the peacetime
practice of having jobs really
permanent will be reinstituted. To
accomplish this a long lst of
formal examinations will haye to
be given.

War-service appointees
compete with non-Federal
Dloyees.

Tt is expected that after the
regulations go into effect the sys-
tem will call for no final service
other than with status, {e., classi-
fled competitive rating, which is
associated with security.

Registers are likely to be estab-
Hshed with an estimated life of 1
year, maybe less, This will give
added opportunities to returning
veterans and at the same time cut
down the work of the Commission.

Dr. Gregg pointed out the high
cost of medical education; higher
for students in tuition fees and
in the length of training than for
other professions; more expensive,

NYU Offers Refresher
For Civil Engineers

Two refresher courses for veter-
ans who graduated in civil engi-
neering and who entered service
with little or no active practice
will be offered by the New York
University College of Engineering
at the Washington Square this
spring, Dean Thorndike Saville
announced last night.

One course will be in structural
engineering and will include a re-
view of the elementary theory of
| structures, steel design, and rein-
}forced concrete design. The other
wil be in sanitary engineering and
will review the fundamental prob-
lems of water supply engineering,
sewerage and sewage treatment

‘The courses will be given one
evening a week for nineteen weeks
beginning in February. Both
meet the requirements of the Vet-
erans Administration for the “GI
Bill of Rights” and other veterans’
legislation.

Pace Counsels Vets
On Study Courses

A comprehensive counseling
program for the returning service
men and women who may elect,

in professional or business courses,
is now functioning at Pace Insti-
tute, 225 Broadway, Manhattan,

In formulating the program, the
Institute has taken full advan-
tage of the experience gained
from its extensive training and
| employment program carried out
for returning veterans immediately
after the end of the first World
War. An Advisory Board com~-
posed of veterans of the first
World War who have achieved
notable success as certified public
accountants and in business since
the time of their own attendance
at the Institute, will act as a
liaison between the Institute and
the C.P.A. profession and business.

Pace Institute does not intend
to establish a separate admini-
strative unit for war veterans be-
cause experience after the first
World War demonstrated that
returning veterans preferred not
to be considered a group apart
from other students.

‘The best position for running is

lifting the knees wastes a lot of

cent of the total eligibles because
of veteran preference, This was

change than was expected.

On open-competitive lists, espe-

cially large ones, like Sanitation

Man, the percentage, judging by
liminary observations, will run

‘The longest list so far adjusted
to veteran preference is that of
Trackman (Transportation), but
in 10 days the much-larger Sani-
tation Man list will be revised and
announced.

There are approximately 1,000
eligibles left on the list, which
originally contained almost 8,000
names.

A large number of appointments
of these men are expected, to fill
vacancies, also positions now held
by provisional employees. During
the war, when so many men were
in service or engaged in war work,
it was impossible for the Depart-
ment of Sanitation to find men to

and Sanitation men were hired by
the Department as needed.

Until lists are made to carry out
the preference amendment, certi-
fications are held up. This is true
in State, county and town services
as well as in NYC. The preference
amendment affects all these,

able coincidence. Of the first 16

eo interesting fact about
this list is that of the 36 veterans,
all moved up 15 positions, except-
ing 5, and gained 1, 11, 11, 13 and
14 respectively, The average gain
in relative position by veterans
was 14 places.

The first number in the follow-
ing list is the present relative

Deanna Durbin takes a turn for
the lighter side in her most recent
film, “Because of Him,” showing
at Loew's Criterion. The story is
somewhat a rehash of many we've
seen (poor waitress aspires to
Stage career) but the cast is good.
Pranchot Tone is the “him” and
Charles Laughton is as good as
ever for laughs, playing a corny
actor,

Ever-dependable Babs Stanwyck
has now been screened in a
dramatic story of a beautiful
(naturally!) young widow who
falls in love for a second time,
thereby involving herself and two

it residing st the
Strand Theatre and titled “My
Reputation.” Orrin Tucker and
boys handle the musical assign-
ment and Peter Lind Hayes sup-
plies the laughs, This is well-
balanced entertainment fare.

Betty Hutton is a record-breaker
if ever we saw one. She's doing it
again at the Paramount where
“Stork Club” js still golng strong.
Lovable Barry Fitzgerald and
darling Don DeFore have support-
ing roles in this swell picture.

A complete new revue is on the
stage of Leon & Eddie's and the
material is original stuff which
makes any evening spent there a
fun-fest,

works found @ surprisingly en-
thusiastic audience overseas, testa-

holds for any audience at any
time.

Guidance Consultant
Tests Aptitudes

The Guidance Consultant, lo-
cated at 521 Fifth Avenue, will
test your aptitudes and abilities
and find out what types of work
you can do best. Ex GI's are
especially invited. Veteran prob-
Jems are dealt with by a former
serviceman, experienced in per-
sonnel counselling and aptitude
testing. The man who is aware of

| his own abilities is way ahead of

the game and on the right track
to success, says Guidance Con-
sultant.
