Life of State
Prison Guard List
May Be Extended

ALBANY.—A bill has been in-
troduced in the Legislature to
extend the State prison guard list

The present eligible list for
prison -guard, which expires by
faw on June 24, 1945, originally
contained 4,932 names, 163 per-
fianent appointments ‘have been
made from this lst. The last

Gust 7, 1944, went to No, 559

State Civil Service Commission
@stimates that 58% o° the eligibles
‘on this list are in military service.
‘Approximately 140 eligibles who
Stand above No, 559 are in mili-
fary service and, under existing
law, these eligibles are entitled to
preference in appointment after
their release from military serv-
fee. A number of substitute and
temporary war duration appoint-
ments haye been made from the

Because, if the list is permitted
to expire it can no longer be used
for either permanent or war dura-
tion appointments and, because
uch a high proportion of eligibles

military service, it seems to the
gponsors necessary to extend the
life of the list for a two-year

increase.
The Civil Service Commission
had to turn back certifications by

the Budget Bureau because Civil
Service Law had not been ob-
served in all respects during the

selecting of eligibles for promo-
tion.

Then the matter was taken up
at a conference between Mrs,
Esther Bromley, acting commis-

sion president, and the Budget
Bureau heads.
One solution proposed by

longer period of time before being
Permitted to take a promotion
examination, The result would be
shorter lists, and more certainty
of promotion for those who make
the list. By the time an employee
were reached for promotion un-

der this plan he would be at or
near the top of his grade.

sion: “Matter of request by the
Budget Director that eligibility
requirements for promotion be in
creased generally to two years in-

U. S. Employees Forced
To Work Too Hard?

WASHINGTON — Is the
Federal employee asked to
do too much work? Many
people might not think so,
but here are some revealing
facts which might change
their minds:

Two years ago there were
287,287 full-time employees on
the Federal payroll in Washington.

Since then there has been a de-
crease of 32,103, But has the work

decreased proportionately? Not by
@ long shot. It is common knowl-

doesn’t get done but it is a con-
stant struggle of the ones on the

edge that the work of the Fed-| job to catch up or keep up, with

eral government has been ex-
panding constantly. The same
situation holds in field offices,
They're Getting Tired Out
Authorities who really know say
that U. 8. workers are just plain
getting tired out, and here's one
reason why. There are approxi-
mately 199,000 vacancies in the
Federal service, Somebody has to
do the work not accomplished by
the vacancies. True, some of it

insufficient help,

Just what are the reasons why
Federal employees leave their
jobs? This should give a clue to
the work load situation,

The Statistics

First of all, 8 per cent of the
employees who leave get fired.
During November of last year a
check reveals that in the entire
service more than 168,000 em-
Pjoyees were removed for cause,

or 14.2 per cent of the 130,976
separations in November,

Reason for this is that bosses
are being forced to get rid of the
loafers and replace them with
those who can do a good day's
work.

One year ago statistics reveal
that only 5 per cent of the per-
sons leaving government did so
because of ill. health induced by
overwork and poor working con~
ditions. This year that figure has
more than doubled.

Other reasons for leaving in-
clude: to go into military service
—5 per cent; transfers to other
agencies—21 per cent; return to
school or enter private industry—
16 per cent; for miscellaneous
family reasons such as to care for
children, moving—9 per cent,

Surprise is that only 3 per cent
left because of not enough pay
and slow promotions,

Conferences toDecideFate
Of Fixed Salary Board

‘ALBANY —= Conferences;
between officials of the As-|

sociation of State Civil Serv-
ice Employees and the State
Civil Service Department
and Division of the Budget
are still under way on terms
of a proposed act to re-
establish the Salary Stand-

ardization Board as a per-
manent agency, @ move
recommended by Governor
Dewey.

A bill to set up an independent

board of nine members introduced |
under Democratic auspices was) some headway

solely by amendment of the con-
stitution.

pants in the conferences would
disclose what progress has been
made in the last three weeks,

Feld-Hamilton career law by re-
peal of existing statutory salary

It was indicated that once
agreement is reached upon a bill
satisfactory to both Gov, Dewey
and the Association, its quick pas~
sage by the Legislature is assured.
If no agreement can be reached,
finally, the present board may be
continued for another year with-
out change,

Few Federal
Workers Violate
The Hatch Act

WASHING “ON. — Federal em-
Ployees obeyed the law and stayed
out of participation in the recent
Presidential campaign,

Tt has been revealed to Congress
that out of the Government's
3,000,000 employees, there were
ny 946 complaints about Fed-
bin workers violating the Hatch

t.
And out of this number, after
thorough investigation, only 58
actual violations were found and
the employees were removed from
their jobs. In 89 cases, prelimi-
naty removal orders are being
withheld for Inck of sufficient evi-
dence. No violations were found
in 297 cases, and the Civil Serv-
ioe Commission still has 209 cases
under study.

The Commission feels this rec-
ord is @ tribute to its efforts to
keep politics out of the service,

U.S. Appropriates
$50,000,000. for
Retirement Fund

WASHINGTON.—Congress will
s00n add $50,000,000 to the Civil
Service retirement and disability
fund to handle payments to 1,-
$45,000 Federal employees who
will be eligible for fund benefits
by next summer.

This sum was included in’ the
Independent Offices appropriation
bill for the next fiscal year,

According to Gen. Hines, VA
head, when the national veterans
program is at its peak it will re-
quire from 80,000 to 100,000 per-
sons to administer it, He told the
House Appropriations Committee
that “vacancies in the central of-
fice and for nurse positions in the
hospitals have reached the point
where it is going to require some-
thing be done about it.”

He cited 2,881 vacancies in
Washington, and 7,894 in the
field.

Navy Hospital
Needs Laundry,
Mess Workers

100 Mess Attendants and Laun-
dry Workers are needed at St.
Albans Naval Hospital. In com-
menting on the need for workers
Captain L, L. Pratt, Medical Omi-
cer in Command, stated “We are
faced with the problem of sery-
ing thousands of meals each day
to patients. Food is such a vital
part of proper therapy that it is
otfen necessary to overcome the
shortage of workers by using
nurses and corpsmen who are
needed for other duties.”

Mess Attendants are paid 65 | 346?

cents per hour, and Laundry
Workers 74 cents per hour with
time and one-half after forty
hours per week. The jobs have
all U. &. Civil Service advantages
including 26 days’ paid vacation
and 15 days’ sick leave per year.

Aside from any monetary con-
sideration, there is no better way
for the American people to ex-
press their gratitude to the men
who have been wounded in the
defense of their country, than by
helping with the care of the
wounded,

Men and women interested in
patriotic employment under mod-
ern, up-to-date conditions should

Albans Hospital or to the U. S.

Price Administration?

If the answer is yes, or even
maybe, then you'll be interested
in this fact: close to 500 new
positions have been allotted to the
OPA in New York City by pata
U.S. Budget Bureau. These
sitions must be filled as rapialy|
as possible.

Last week, at a meeting be-|
tween Daniel P. Woolley, OPA
chief in this area, and James E.
Rossell, Director of the Second
Civil Service Region, it was de-
cided to set up an office directly

Selective Service View

Many cases have been reported
in which selective service infor-
mation has been used against em-
Ployees and prospective employ-
ees. Selective Service Headquar-
ters In New York City is known
to frown on the practice, holding
that such information is of a
purely military character, in that
it indicates a man’s availability
for military service, but does not
necessarily reflect on his capacity
to hold a civilian job.

No Increase
In Salary

Promotions, smnounced last
week in the NYC Board of Trans-
portation, effective on January 1
and 10, 1045, reflect the City's
Policy of limiting promotions to
those at the top of their salary
bracket, where the boost won't
mean any actual salary increases,

Many of the promotions had to
be made effective January 10, be-
cause the Civil Service Commis-
sion delayed promulgation of the
eligible lists in some divisions until
that date. Employees have pro-
tested this to the Commission, ask-
ing regular Jan, 1. promotions,

NYC Employees Asked
To Contribute More Blood

A new drive to keep up the flow of plasma to the fighting fronts
has been started by Judge Irving Ben Cooper of the NYC Court of
Special Sessions. As head of the Governmental Units section of the
American Red Cross Blood Donor Activities, Judge Cooper has super-
vised the blood-donation campaign among NYC employees for the

past three years,

Instead of the present method
of drives at frequent intervals, the
new plan proposes to send fixed
numbers of employees to the blood
donors’ centers each week. In the
past, when rushes came employees
were often turned away. At other
times, there were few volunteers.

In the future, the blood-volun-
teers will turn in their names to
their department. Then the
names will be sent to Judge
Cooper who will schediile the ap-
pointments and notify the donor.

Singled Out

Sanitation, Police and Pire De-
partments were singled out by
the Judge for special commend:

tion. “The Department of Sani-
tation,” he said, “has made over
6,500 donations. Over 50 Sanita-
tion employees are members of
the ‘Gallon Clul

“The Police and Fire Depart-
ments,” he added, “haye done a
grand job, As a whole, New York |
City employees’ responses to the
call for blood donations has ex-
ceeded that of any other group in
the metropolitan area.

Howover, I am trying to ar-
range blood donations in an or-
derly manner to allow for a steady
flow of the badly needed plasma.”

In a recent short wave broad-
cast, General Dwight D. Eisen-
hower said: “I want to express
the gratitude of men who would
have died except for the gift of
life from Americans back home.
Thousands of soldiers are living
today, many fully restored to
duty, because men and women
who could not go themselves, have
sent their blood Into battle.”

name of every city employee who
contributes blood. Just send us

Moses’ Request

The Board of Estimate, acting
on a request of Robert Moses,
Commissioner of Parks, appropri-
ated funds to pay salaries of vari-
ous engineering employees then
engaged in supervision of various
relief projects partially financed
by the city, which upon comple-
flon were to be wholly maintained
by the city. The appropriation as
approved was not in the entire
amount requested by the Park
Commissioner.

The Commissioner of Parks re-
turned the certificate, requesting
that it be modified by elimination
of certain limitations and to con-
form to the Board of Estimate re-
solution as approved. This the
Budget Director refused to do, sta-
ting as a reason that the resolution
as adopted was wrong, although
no effort was ever made to cerrect
the presumed error. Commissioner
Moses disagreed that any error
had been made, but the persistent
refusal of the then Budget Direc-
tor made it impossible to submit

To Lose Pension
If Bill Ils Passed

ALBANY — Senator Seymour
Republican, and

|pablican, have introduced a bill
| which will make it impossible for
any civil service employee to ob-

expense
who has been found guilty in
court of misappropriating public
funds or property, a fraudulent
| and corrupt act gn his official ca-
pacity, or mph felony relating to
the conduct of his office or em-
ployment.

“A pension contributed by the
public,” Senator Halpern said, “is
supposed to be a reward for faith-
ful public service. This bill will
help to put an end to the occa-
sional cases in which an officer or

{lc trust resigns under fire and
demands full pension rights, in-
cluding the part contributed by |
the public, It is carefully safe-
guarded and limited to cases of
}actual court conviction. It is
| hoped that it may have a salu-
tory deterrent effect on public
servants who are in danger of
succumbing to temptation.”

This bill passed the Senate last
year and ts sponsored by the Citi-
zens Union.

Interesting Means
Of Promotion
Used by Library

The Circulation Department of
the New York City Public Library
has its own promotion system
which contains some features that
| Might be considered by municipal
| officials interested in formulating
a “merit” system of promotion.

Clerical employees must have’
completed their high school edu-
cation; the college graduate enters
the library with a sub-professional
rating. With these high stand-
ards, Grade I is the entering title
for the college graduate, who has
earned at least eight credits in
brary school. When she has
completed her course and at-
tained a bachelor’s degree, she is
eligible for Grade I.

‘The Tests

After adequate experience in
Grade IT, and with satisfactory
service reports, she may take the
promotion examinations for Grade
Til. These are offered annually in
two divisions. The Contemporary
Affairs test, given each spring,

Civil Service Should
Ask Employees’ Advice

Shae to the NYC Civil Service Commission;

The recent promotions, to cletk grade 3 and

clerk grade 4 invited such varied and diverse re-

onses that officials of both the Civil Service Commission

and of the Budget Buremu felt it imperative to hold a
conference on the subject.

It is known that the official views on the manner in
which such promotions should be made clash with a loud
noise. For example, should persons who have not reached
the top of their grades be skipped over? A civil service
official would be apt to, say No; a budget director would
likely say, Yes. It is possible to make out a good case for
either view.

One proposal reported to have been made by Budget
Director Thomas Patterson is that a longer waiting period
be imposed upon employees in a given grade before they
would be permitted to take examinations for promotion
to the next higher grade (see story on page 1). And the
Civil Service Commission has this proposal on its eglendar
for action.

Our suggestion is that the employees should be heard.
That a public hearing should be held. That the views of
those most directly affected be ascertained.

And this brings us to the point of the week's edi-
torial, which isn’t promotion (we've discussed that pre-
viougly), but civil service procedure on matters of policy,
We would like to see the Civil Service Commission hold
public hearings even when not so required by law. The
present instance is a good example. The law doesn’t
require a public hearing on this issue, but the Commission
would wisely listen to as many views as it can get on the
subject. The same goes for other matters of policy, The
more closely the Commission maintains contact with the
employees, the more accurate are the solutions to its prob-
Jems likely to be. Administrative decisions involving the
employees of a city the size of New York should not be
made in vacuums,

The holding of public hearings is a chore for the
Commission, true. But the burden of work nowadays is
not such as to preclude the holding of more public
hearings.

How to you feel about this suggestion, Mrs. Bromley?

Conference of Mayors Comes Out

‘Against Sweeping Veterans’ Preference
Opponents of the Downey-Sherman constitu-
tional amendment to give State war veterans
sweeping civil service preference in sppointment

and promotion found a new ally last week when
the powerful State Conference of Mayors threw
itself into the fight against the proposal.

At the same time, however, the 52 members of
the war veterans’ bloc in the State Legislature,
consisting of legislators who are veterans of the

present and past wars, prepared to back the
Downey-Sherman measure to the limit, This is
the former Hampton-Devany bill, which Was pass-
ed unanimously last year, and must now be passed
again, after which it goes to the people for vote.

Acting through its steering committee, of which
Assemblyman Harold C. Ostertag, Wyoming
County Republican, is chairman, the legislators
also declined to act on the Wicks-Mitchell coun-
ter-resolution, which would give disabled veterans
a 10-point preference and those non-disabled a

§-point boost in their civil service
mar! ind would also grant them
preference in exempt, non-compe-
titive, and labor class jobs, (The
Wicks-Mitchell resolution was des-
eribed in last week's LEADER—

The legislative committee of the
Btate Conference of Mayors, re-
presenting 61 cities and 130 vil-
Jages, last week voted disap-
proval of the Downey-Sherman
proposal which has the backing
ef both Governor Dewey and
American Legion. The com-
mittee, with Mayor Addison

the matter is brought before the
entire group later on, despite last
week's action of the steering com-
mittee under Assemblyman Oster-
tag,

The League of Women Voters,
meeting in Albany, renewed its
opposition to the all-out vet pro-
posal and came out in favor of the
5-and-10 point measure with #
statement by Mrs. Robert Gordon,
legislative chairman, that the
Downey-Sherman measure would
“discriminate against disabled
veterans,"

Mrs, Gordon's main point was
this: “Under present law, when

for lack of funds or other reasons,
the last le hired are the first
to be lak . The Downey-Sher-
man bill was intended to favor
disabled veterans over other veter-
ans, But the effect of this bill
would be to keep a non-disabled
veteran with, say, one year of
service, ahead of @ disabled vet~
eran with possibly five years of
service,”

Frank P, Clements

HE'S A BROOKLYN boy, raised
in Greenpoint, in the old days,
when, as he describes it, “some-
times you could go to work in the
morning without a fight but gen-
erally you'd have to battle your
way home,

Back in May, 1913, he had just
finished public school and was
looking around for a way to add
to the Clements family treasury
when he noticed an “ad” about
the City needing office boys at the
salary of $300 a year.

Next thing, he found himself at
the Tenement Housing Depart-
ment as a file clerk.

Putting things away in alpha-
betical order didn’t seem to offer
too much of a career, so he went
to Pace Institute and studied ac-
ca@inting and commercial law at
night.

Transfer to Law Department

Next step was a transfer to the
Iw Department in ‘14. There he
worked in a bureau which followed
the progress of litigation, and gave
him a good chance to learn the
operations of City government.
Later he served in the Docks De-
partment, then went to Plants and
Structures (later Public Works).

During the time when Grover
Whalen headed the department, he
had the most fun, A large part of
bis job consisted of working on
the converted tugboat, "The Ma-
com” which was the City's official
greeting ship. Every time a notable
came into New York Harbor, the
boat would be decorated, packed
with top-hatted City officials and
sail out to meet the distinguished
guests, He didn't wear a high hat,
but worked behind the scenes, and
it was often a 24-hour a day job,
Worked Out Accounting System

Back in 1923, the old World was
complaining almost daily in edi-
torial about the mismanagement
of the City’s ferries, so Clements
was assigned to do something
about it, For months he studied
‘the accounting and revenue sys-
tems of private utilities and Ma-
rine towing companies and finally
worked out @ new system that was
put into operation on the mun-
icipal ferries and toll bridges,

He worked up the ladder, to

Clerk, Grade 5 by promotion ex-
aminations and managed to lead
every list on which he appeared.
City-wide examinations weren't
given then, but his grade often
was the highest among all depart-
ments. On the Grade 5 examina-
tion, he led his nearest competitor
in another department by 3 per-
cent.
By 1933 he was paymaster of the
Plants and Structures Department.
In 1938, when the departments
were reorganized under the new
City Charter, he became Director
of Administration of Public Works.
Among his varied duties are: per-
sonnel management, employee re-
Jations, trial officer of the de-
partment, in charge of accounting,
records, etc. He manages to keep
cordial relations between the em-
ployees and the administration. In
fact, it's hard to find anyone who
doesn't have a good word to say
about him, whether it’s an em-
ployee, an official, or a union re-
Presentative who has had dealings
with him, :

He even married into civil ser-
vice, The former Marie Ferris of
Plants and Structures is now
Mrs, Frank P. Clements of Forest
Hills, where two potential civil
service employees are growing up.

His chief hobby is “puttering
around the house,” where he is
the official repairman, electrician,
painter and plumber for household

repairs,

How to Make Friends and— ‘
“I NEVER knew I had so many friends,” complains an ofjicial im

the Manhattan Borough President's Office. In that department, for |
many years, the employees have been provided with their cigarettes
through the office. The cigarettes were purchased wholesale, distrib=
utd at cost to the sta/f. Now, despite the shortage, the Borough Presi~
dent's headquarters still gets its quota of smokes, This has mdde the
office ane of the most popular in town. People from other agencies
manage to arrange for a call to the 15th floor of the Municipal
Building. There is supposed to be a feud between Parks and the
Borough Prexy's dailiwick, but even Park people come in and try to
wangle a package. . . . One cute angle is the fact that Borough
President Nathan doesn't go for cigarettes, He used to be a cigar
man, recently switched to pipes. .

Letter of the Week

NYC BIGWIGS are chuckling over the letter which came im |
recently from a man who had worked on City snow removal:
“Please be advised that I have met with some unfortunate experl-
ence which has caused me to become invelved with the law, and 3
will not be able to appear for work assignments until the expiration
of the sentence which I am now serving in the New York County
Penitentiary. Therefore, under the circumstances, I must ask that
the wages due me by the Sanitation Department be forwarded te
the above address at the earliest possible moment.” . . .

POLICE CALLS j

About Those ‘Soft’ Details :

A lot of New York cops seem to have pretty soft indoor jobs, »
For instance, they are stationed at places like Selective Service Head~
quarters; or at Civil Service Commission hearings, and just sit around
and watch the proceedings, I ee ee

But the inside story is this: |the department are legally eligible *

for retirement; many aren't phys-

Practically all of the police who
get the “gravy” details are older
men in the department, many of
them eligible for retirement . . .
in effect are working for half pay
or less, For example: Plenty of
men are still on the force after
thirty years of service, They
could be retired on half pay, get
the money for staying home.
stead they put in their full week's
work with the department. Other
men, working on light duty, have
been injured on the job, could get
retirement with three-fourths
pay (about $2,250 a year), but
prefer to stay on the force and do
what they can.
One-Third Could Retire

Figures show that about one-

third of the men now serving in

sets were & rarity, neighbors used
to come in to hear faint sounds
over the earphones of the new-
fangled radio machine that the
Clements kid built,

On Mayor's Committee
He's an active member of the

fication of Procedures, and says
civil service employees oan expect
ements when that body
completes its reports to the Mayor,

ically capable of doing patrol,
duty, but can handle the seden-
tary assignments,

Another group from which the
“gravy” detail is drawn consists
of men who are below par physi-
cally; some with chronic ailments
that don't call for disability re-
tirement, but don't permit
to work regular tours either, They
are certified by direction of the ¥
Chief Surgeon for “all day tours.”
Others may be conyalescing from
iliness and are given a spell of *
light work.

In fact, legislation, now in Aly
bany, to provide that radio com-*
munications men in police departe
ments must be members of the
uniformed force, is designed te
open more jobs to members of the
department who can't go out on

any one year since 1920 was when
Nathan L. Miller was Governor.
During his regime in 1921; 218
exempt positions were created and
the total number of State em-
ployees was about 21,588. Then,
in the following years the number
of new exempt places ranged from
26 in 1930 (Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt) to a new high of 63 in
1938 under Governor Herbert H.
Lehman,

In 1943

In 1943, the first year of Gov-
ernor Dewey's administration, 36
exempt positions were created un~
der the Democratic-controlled Civil
Service Commission, From August
1, 1943 to July 1, 1944, latest fig-
ures available, the new GOP-con-
trolled Commission has created

Dewey
the Civil Service Commission,
headed by Judge J. Edward Con-
Way, have not created an unusual
number of political or policy-
making positions, outside civil
service, particularly since the
whole State government was sub-
Ject to wide reorganization,

Governor Dewey's record;of 28
new exempt jobs against a total
of nearly 60,000 civil service em-
ployees is regarded as highly fa-
Vorable, for instance, when com-
pared with that of Governor Mil-
ler's 218 against a civil list of
22.572 employees.

Tt is contended that as
State government grows larger,
the number of exempt policy-
making positions, likewise should
be proportionately greater. Of
course, the people in the competi-
tive civil service, the career men
and women, believe that they
should be given first consideration
when new job opportunities are
created. This philosophy is in con-
flict with that of politicians and
‘Some administrators who, perhaps
properly, defend the right to
name or remove at will employees
of their own choosing placed in
Positions of confidence and per-
sonal trust.

It was to be expected, say even
the advocates of the merit system,
that the new Republican-Dewey
administration would “raise hell"
with job holders. This has failed
to develop, as the records show,
Some even claim that the com-
Paratively low number of new ex-
empt positions under the Dewey
regime reflects a regard for the
operations and protection of the
merit system,

Certain advocates of the merit
system contend that the test isn’t
how many new exempt jobs are
added, but the total number,
‘They say that with greater ex-
pexiinoe in examining methods,

@ number of exempt positions
should even go down,

Manpower Shortage

Some factors have developed
that would tend to retard a
wholesale di of old-timers
im exempt jobs or in creating
large numbers of new ones. A
factor is the manpower shortage.
Another is the large number of

or “war-time” appoint-
ments that are being made, most
of them on a political basis be-
cause of the impracticability of
conducting competitive exams in
these times,

‘The LEADER below provides a
complete list of the existing ex-
empt positions in State govern-
ment, It does not include posi-
tions in the non-competitive
class. The roster, however, does
disclose how annual increases in
exempt positions finally have risen
to an astounding total,

The State
Employee

By CLIFFORD C. SHORO

President, The Association of
State Civil Service Employces

Capsule View of the Legislative Session
THESE ARE busy times in the State Capitol, Legislative com=

OF HEALTH (2) | Mittees are anxiously studying the hundreds of proposals having to

do with all kinds of human affairs, Association officers and com
| mittees are also holding many meetings relative to clvil service legis~
lation, Counsel DeGraff is busy with the preparation of bills and
conferences with legisiators. There is a possibility that this will not
be a long session after all, and adjournment on March 20th is

rumored,
The Pay Increase

TURNING OVER the bills hurriedly, it is apparent that the Gov-
ernor’s Budget with the 20%, 17%2%, 15%, 12%4% and 10% emer=
gency salary increases, holds the spotlight of employee attention.
This is assured of approval and it will be a substantial help in meet-
ing taxes and cost of living increases. The inclusion of employees
of the judiciary and legislature in the emergency pay will be sought.

Overtime Pay

A MEASURE renewing straight overtime pay for institutional
employees is continued and bills are in to provide time and one-half
if the legislature will approve. The Association is working on a
measure to assure that employees who are prevented from taking
vacation or holiday periods by reason of great pressure of work will
be compensated at the end of the year for time thus worked.
is no doubt that the strain of present work is best met by health

e | Care possible in vacation periods, but it is obviously fair that where
ry PEER ee eek eee ee Sy,

be compensated therefor.
nemployment Insurance

THE ASSOCIATION'S bill to accord unemployment insurance to
State workers has brought a number of inquiries as to whether em-
ployees would have deductions made from their salaries for such
insurance. The answer is “No,” Employees in New York State in
private industry do not pay for their unemployment insurance. Thi

cost of any unemployment insurance granted by the Legislature, This
bill was introduced last year but was not approved. We believe it is
particularly fair to inaugurate unemployment insurance for State
workers who may be unfortunate enough to lose their jobs at

any time.
\ Transfer of USES

H A MEASURE is being drafted to care for all of the various angles
incident to the transfer back to the State of the USES, Probably
some 2,500 former State employees would be affected by returning
their duties to the jurisdiction of the State. Of course, no one knows
when this may occur, but we ought to be prepared.

Efforts will be made to secure additional pay for civilian prison

Bills are in to grant death benefit to widows of prison employees
where employees are under the old Correction Department Retire-
ment Fund, and to permit benefits after twenty years of service.
‘There is no death benefit or other than a straight retirement allowed
in this system, which is now closed. Measures to protect Mental
Hygiene workers as to their retirement under new rates of pay which
include maintenance as compared to previous arrangement; and
retirement at different ages are also with the Pension Committees,

Extension of Feld-Hamilton Protection

MEASURES to extend the Feld-Hamilton coverage to parole
officers,-forest rangers and to the Niagara Frontier Authority are
under way and these should be helpful to the various groups.

Extension of present yearly protection of civil service rights for
Merchant Marine with broader coverage, Red Cross, and other safe-
guards for veterans; transfer of nurses to Professional classification;
extension of eligible list for prison guards; and possibly others; no
discrimination in pay or rights because of sex; to permit payment
for removal of employee and family effects when transferred at the
direction of the State, and a number of other measures to carry out
the mandates ‘of resolutions adopted at our annual meeting are
already in the Legislattre or on the agenda,

The establishment of a permanent Salary Standardization Board
and any necessary amendments to the Feld-Hamilton schedules-and
provisions are of tremendous importance, and thorough attention to
all of the factors is being given by the State agencies involved and
by the Association.

Letchworth Village

NEARLY a hundred Villagers
with their relatives and friends,
gathered at the Wayside Inn,
Route 9W, Stony Point, N. ¥., at
testimonial dinner in honor of Dr.
George W. T. Watts, retiring pres-
ident of the Letchworth Village
Chapter of the Association of
State Civil Service Employees. Dr.
Watts served three years. as Chap-
ter President, Leo F, Gurry, Pres-
ident of the Mental Hygiene Em-
ployees Association, acted as toast-
master. William F, McDenough,
Executive Representative of the
ASCSE, presented the gift (two
$100 War Bonds). Mr. McDonough
praised the constructive efforts of |
Dr. Watts on behalf of every pro-
gressive proposal of the Associa- |
tion both as Chapter President
and as a frequent delegate to con-
ferences at Albany. Said Mr. Mc-
Donough: “Here is 8 man who has
thé vision to see that the standard
of public service will never rise
higher than employment stand-
ards adopted for civil government.
He has spoken forthrightly on all
oceasions for the better hours and
pay and leave and other rights |

Hygiene institutions now enjoy.
He has set a pattern for attention
to employee welfare that will, we
are sure, be emulated more and
more by those in the higher posi-
tions who are so largely respon-
sible for personnel administration
in New York State service.” .. .
Fred J. Walters, Vice President of |
the Mental Hygiene Employees As-
sociation, addressed the gathering.
Charles McBreen, of Orangeburg,

Opportunities for Statistical Work
_ In State and Local Government

By DAVID M. SCHNEIDER
Directog Bureau of Research and Statistics
New York State Department of Social Welfare

STATISTICIANS as a group
have gained considerable pro-
fessional recognition in recent
years. In October, 1944, the reg-
istrations of the National Roster
of Scientific and Specialized Per-
sonnel of the War Manpower
Commission included 2,506 pro-
fessional statisticians. The lat-
ter does not include a large num~-
ber of registrants skilled in sta-
tisties who claimed other princi-
pal professional fields of speciali-
zation, particularly in the social,
agricultural and biological sci-
ences. Their occupational func-
tions include research, consul-
tant service, field work, collec-
tion and analysis of data, college
teaching, management, comput-
ing or machine methods and
technical writing.

On the basis of a survey of a
representative number of States,
it is estimated that approxi-
mately 1,730 statistical workers,
including 632 professional statis-
ticians and 1,100 statistical
clerks, were in the employ of New
York State agencies in Oct., 1944.
‘These figures do not include
many persons who are engaged
in statistical activities but do
not carry the payroll title of
statistician or statistical, clerk.

The Use of Statisticians

State departments of labor
and industries employ the largest
number of statistical workers,
both technical and clerical. This
group of agencies utilized the
services of more than one-fourth
of all statisticians and statistical
clerks employed in State govern-
ments. The relatively large pro-
Portion of statistical personnel
in the departments of labor is in
large measure attributable to
marked statistical and research
activity in such fields as unem-
ployment insurance, workmen's
compensation, price levels, em-

ployment and payrolls, and {n-
dustrial accidents and diseases,
Public welfare departments oc-
cupy second position with re-
spect to size of statistical staff.
These agencies have on their
payrolls one-sixth of the aggre-
gate technical staff and one-
eighth of the total clerical per-
sonnel. The statistical and re-
search activities of the public
welfare departments embrace
the fields of public assistahce,
hospital care,
child welfare, institutional care
of adults, and temporary and
special institutional care for
various groups of dependents.
‘The health departments rank
third, and employ more than
one-eighth of the professional
statisticians and one-tenth of
the clerical staff. The major field
of statistical and research activi-
ity of these agencies relate to
births, deaths and marriages,
population estimates, local health
services, reportable diseases, san-
itation and public health nurs-
. Considerable research and
statistical personnel are also em-
ployed by State Departments of
agriculture, taxation, education,
banking and insurance.

Growth

Although the growth of statis-
tical personnel in the State gov-
ernments has been retarded
somewhat during the national
defense and war periods due to
military induction and affiliation
with war activities, 40 State
agencies reported increases of
statistical staff during the past
five years, Progress in this di-
rection was indicated by all
types of agencies, particularly
those relating to health, agricul-
ture, and taxation and finance.

Sixteen of the 23 States which
replied to the questionnaire held
out bright prospects for in-

opportunitis for statis-

eI
tical Work, particularly during
the post-war period, This opti-
mism is largely due to: (1) the
large mass of statistical infor-
mation collected by the States,
only a small fraction of which
is being currently analyzed and
interpreted. The function of
Statistics as a tool of sound man-
agement is gaining increasing
recognition among administra-
tors, legislators and other pol-
icy-making groups: (2) exten-
sion of governmental services
with a resultant increase in re-
search and statistical programs,
and (3) newly created functions
assumed by the State agencies
during the post-war period.
Although opportunities for sta-
tistical work in local govern-
ments are not as great as among
State agencies, counties, and
cities py it a fertile field for
the development of research and
statistical programs. This is par-
ticularly evident in municipal
activities relating to health, pub-
llc welfare, taxation, education,
Probation, law enforcement, and
planning.

What's 2 Good Statistician?

It is generally agreed that the
Most essential attributes of a
good statistician include a
knowledge of theoretical statis-
tical techniques, famillarity with
thelr practical application and
an intimate knowledge of sources
of information. Some schools of
thought stress the desirability of
a knowledge of the field of ac-
tivity for proper analysis and
interpretation of statistical data,

‘The Training

How may the statistician of
the future receive that basic
training which will enable him
to become a valuable asset in
State or local government?
There is need for planned co-
operation between the States and
colleges or universities. in the
development ofa curriculum for
prospective statisticians which
will incorporate the cumulative

ground’ subjects,
courses including practical ap-
Plications of statistical tech-

— ~

niques, and a limited amount of *
field work. Cooperative arrange-
ments might also be made for *
the development of suitable ex~
tension courses for promotion +
purposes and for workers in
other fields who plan a statisti«
cal career, The training of sta-
tistical clerks would naturally
require a simpler curriculum, In-
volving in the main a brief ,
course in elementary statistics
and instruction In machine op-
eration, Similar procedures for +
developing statistical personnel
could be employed by local de-
partments that are within reach +
of educational institutions.
Those remotely situated might
find it feasible to participate in*
State planning for the education
and training of statistical per- |
sonnel.

In considering opportunities
for statisticians it should also be +
borne in mind that statistical
work is still in its infancy and
hence subject to considerable*

to a changing
economy presents a fertile field,
for well-trained statistical wark-
era.

Confer With Head
Of Classification

\ ALBANY—William F, MeDono-
ugh, Executive Representative of
the Association of State Civil Ser-
vice Employees, and John P. Rice,
Chairman of the Maintenance
Man and Maintenance Supervisor
Committee, met with J. Earl Kelly,
Director of the Classification
Board, on Tuesday, February 6th.

The conference was requested by
the Association to clear particu-
larly the reclassification of the
Positions, of skilled artisans from
the maintenance man class to the
jorneyman titles, Mr. Rice pointed
out that in general all trades have
similar requirements insofar as
education, training and experience,
hours of work, hazards, etc, and
therefore, all skilled tradesmen
should have similar classifications
in State employ.

It was felt at the conclusion of
the conference that certain of
these ‘positions not heretofore
changed will very soon be reclassi-
fied by the Board. Some positions
at Harlem Valley have been
changed and employees notified.

Mr. Rice is Senior Maintenance
Supervisor at Harlem Valley State
Hospital, Wingdale, and has been
in the employ of the Department
of Mental Hygiene since Sept, 12,
1935, He will continue as chairman
of the Maintenance Committee
until all appeals have been com-
pleted,

Last Year's Charges |

The year-end round up of po-
lice department charges found
plenty of cops who had committed
minor offenses taking their medi-
cine. The department usually |
takes time out the end of the year
and cleans the books of charges
filed in November and December.
A total of 67 cops who had
failed to ring in to the desk at
the appointed time; whose uni-
forms didn't meet the specifica-
tions of the sergeant; who had
neglected to fill out the required
white or salmon colored card on
different occasions, made a trip
to 240 Centre Street and heard
the bad news, Fines of one-half
day's pay were the most popular
award; some rated a full day’s
loss, a few got 2 days.

‘Three patrolmen whose charges
included “found to be intoxi-
cated,” lost 5 days’ pay for their
untimely libations.

On the other hand, 37 men
who appeared in the Trial Room
Just received a reprimand, and
15 others, who had a good alibi,
had the satisfaction of walking
out with the welcome words,
“Charges dismissed,” in their ears.
