A survey by The LEADER con-

Answer: Plenty, but that needs
explaining, too, No one can deny
it: Washington, along with NYC,
is the costliest place to live
in the country. But that doesn’t
mean prices are out of sight, For
example, this correspondent has
never heard a New Yorker say
he couldn't live here ag cheap or
cheaper than he does in NYC,
New Yorkers are used to combat-

cost to live in

ing high prices and they know
how to do it.

For example, Washington is a
city of rooming and boarding
houses, It's jam-packed with
them, The prices for room and

where they cook their own meals,
do their own laundry on Sunday
afternoons, ete. Thousands of
these Government girls send
money back home every pay day
and they don't appear to be
starving and they are dressed
well,

What about the deductions

from the employee pay-
cheeks that I hear so much
about?

Answer: Most every Federal
worker now is covered by the re-
tirement act and 5 percent a
month is taken from each em-
ployee's check. It was raised to 5
percent from 3% on July 1. This
money is placed in a fund from
which the employee will draw an
old-age pension when he gets up
in years, Then, too, every Fed-
eral worker is expected to invest
10 percent of his salary in war
bonds, If you can’t do it you
won't be fired, and if you can in-
vest more you'll be expected to do
just that. ‘The same thing applies
to industry, *

4, What's the average salary
of the average clerk hired
in Washington?

Answer: $1,400. Mrs, Roosevelt
said recently that she had checked
the War and Navy Departments—
the two largest hirers of person-

What’s my chance of ad-
> vancement?

Answer: Excellent; they couldn't
be better. The Federal service to-
day is experiencing the most rapid
turnover in its history. Men are
going into the Army and Navy
and new people are coming and
going all the time. The Federal
service is in a high state of flux,
Good people are needed and if you
watch your chance you can just
about pick your spot. Records
show that employees are being
promoted by the hundreds every
week.

What does this “appoint-

/ ment for the duration’?

mean, and will I soon be looking

for another job if I take the
Government position?

Answer: Well, all appointments,
except those in the field service of
the Post Office Department, are
for the duration of the war and
six months thereafter, But I
wouldn't worry about that, though
lots of people do. In the first
place, no one can see the end of
this war just now, and second, if
the war would end tomorrow ‘all
the people with duration appoint-
ments wouldn't be summarily
fired, We don’t have any inside
dope, but you ean bet that the
Federal government will need
many: thousands of people to re-

were all eventually covered in
Civil Service and given permanert,
appointments. The same thing will
be done after this war, observers
here believe.

7 Will I get the 6 per cent

* back that I’m putting into
the retirement fund if I work only
a year or two?

Answer: Sure, that money is as
safe as the Government itself, If
you remain in the service less
than 5 years you'll get a refund
plus percent interest, But if you
stay in 5 or more years you must
wait and draw an old-age pension,
And that won't be difficult to take
when you get old.

Within a month or two, accord-

“reach the top in its hiring wave’
and will from that point on 1

“We should soon reach capacity

ert told The LEADER this week.

“That means we should be adding
about 250 to the 0 employees
we now have. We're still hiring
from existing Federal registers,
After the 2,600 point has been
reached, we'll merely concentrate

1936,

Less essential Federal agencies

‘The equipment transfer order

Such proposals as that of
Councilmen Louis P, Goldberg and
Salvatore Ninfo to bring about
‘a $1,200 minimum for all city
employees ought not to be intro-
duced in the City Council at all
put rather in the Board of Esti-
mate, where it might have some
effect, Councilman William A,
Carroll told The LEADER this
week.

Commenting upon the $1,200
minimum idea suggested at the
most recent meeting of the Coun-
cll, Mr. Carroll pointed out that
his proposal for a 10 per cent in-
crease to all city employees is
atill in a dormant state, that an-
other such proposal “wouldn't do
much good in the Council aside
from putting the Council on
record. The place to get more
money for municipal employees,”
added Mr, Carroll, "Is in the
Board of Estimate. I suggest a

member of the Board be urged
to introduce a resolution to this
effect, Then there'll be action.”

Mr. Carroll held that “any
proposition to raise the salaries of
city employees is a good one,
especially in times such as these
when pensions and taxes and w:
levies make it hard to get along
‘on even more than $1,200 a year."

He said the city can afford to
pay at least a $1,200 minimum,
if not more. in order to “try to
t city employees back on a

wage level that. in effect, they
had ten years ago.”
He decried the continual at-

tempts to lower entrance salaries,
pointing to the recent destruction
of the patrolman's $2,000 entrance
figure.

Mr, Carroll insisted that “any
move in the Council to raise the
pay-minimum would merely be
an idle gesture.””

He revealed that a committee of

Is $1,200 Pay-Minimum
ossible Now in NYC?

Hospital Department seamstresses
visited him September 8 to urge
him to seek a way in which their
$840 a year salary could be raised
so they could meet the cost of
living. He said he intended to
“see Budget Director Ken Dayton
to see if anything could be done
for these folks who labor so
diligently yet don’t get incre-
ments and whom the city takes
advantage of without reason.”

Councilman Anthony J. Di-
Giovanna stated that establish-
ment of a $1,200 mintmum "is a
grand idea as far as placing a
floor on wages, This is somo-
thing that fits in with President
Roosevelt's suggestions, Such
wages as $840 and even $1,200 a
year for city employees are noth-
ing but starvation wages.”

He suggested that a system of
gradations be effected
Whereby married men with de-
pendents working for the city
might earn more than single
men without dependents ‘‘in
order to rearrange the lives of
municipal workers on an equitable
basis,”

Councilwoman Gertrude Weil
Klein agreed that “in principle
the idea. of raises for city em-
ployees is good but there is more
to it than the mere mechanical
application of a principle. When
workers in many industries here
in New York are suffering wage
cuts, you can't just go ahead and
ask the city to raise wages.”

Mrs. Klein contended the city
may not be in a position to raise
wages at all, that the budgetary
situation may be far from a
healthy one, that there may not
be current methods for raising
money.

“Tt is senseless to expect to
raise salaries just by applying any
simple formula,’ she said. “This
whole situation has to be studied.
There are many students just out
of school, for instance, who
wouldn’t be entitled to any sort
of raise at all.”

Those Sergeant
List Rumors

Here's the definite answer to

those sergeant list rumors
which spread like wildfire
through the Police Department

“The sergeant list certainly

of October, The examiners are
still rating the test.”

Harry W. Marsh, president of

sentence in our issue of Sep-

City Lowers
Passing Mark

“T got an average of 69% por-
cent on my test. The passing
mark was given as seventy per-
cent. Did I pass or fail?

“You passed!”

‘This will be the welcome answer
given in the future to the 69%
percent candidates or, for that
matter, the 69.2 percent candidat.s
on City examinations, At its
meeting last week, the Civil Serv-
ice Commission adopted a resolu-
tion to amend its rules and regul-
lations by adding the following
paragraph to section V, of rule V,
to be known as paragraph 4a:

“Whenever the pass mark either
fn the scoring of a test or in the
final average of an examination
has been established in terms of
a percentage, candidates obtain-
ing a rating within any fractional
part above the next lower whole
number shall be considered as
having attained such pass mark.”

‘The rule does not become effec-
tive until it is formally approved
by Mayor LaGuardia and adopted
by the State Civil Service Com-
mission. It will not be retroactive
to any examination held in the
past or now being held. It will
only apply to tests held sub:
quent to its approval by the May
or and adoption by the State Civil
Service Commission.

City Must Aid Its

Armed Men: Burke

Borough President James A,
Burke, of Queens, this week told
The LEADER a public hearing
ought to be called “as soon as
possible” in the Board of Esti-
mate to speed action on Council-
man Stanley Isaacs’ pension pro-
posal, ‘The resolution would have
the city pay regular pension de-
ductions for civil service selectees
to guard against their losing their
pension rights while in the armed
service.

Pointing out that the resolution
“doubtless hag a lot of merit,"
Mr, Burke said he most likely will
be inclined to ‘go along with the
idea if it turns out to be as good
as it sounds offhand after I get
a chance to study it.’”

Added the Borough President:
“There's no doubt that something

ought to be done for the poor
devils who are out there fighting
for their country and have no
means of keeping up their pension
funds. The only hitch is: what
about those in the armed services
who can afford to keep up their
payments?”

In short, Mr. Burke indicated
that if the proposal were to con-
cern “buck privates only," he'd

“most likely “be for the idea right

off the bat,’

Councilman Isaacs informed Tho
LEADER he is continuing to
press for a hearing in the Board
of Estimate in order to get action
on his resolution. He is waiting
for the board to place the item
on its calendar.

“Only the Board of Estimate
can appropriate funds for these
boys who are going to lose their
pensions if nothing comes of tho
idea,” he said.

Asst. Foreman List
In Sanitation
Looks Ahead

The boys on the Sanitation as-
sistant foreman list are the kind
who ought to go places, as we si:
vem up. They've formed an eli
gibles’ association, and one of their
projects is to show the public the
importance and dignity of the
work that Keeps this town clean,

There are, the boys inform us,
18 vacancies in the title which
should be filled immediately. Of
these, 13 are of assistant foremen,
and 5 of foremen.

The duties of an assistant fore-
man in the Sanitation Department
are quite comprehensive. He su-
pervises the men under him, both
drivers and sweepers; he helps en-
force the sanitary code; he is
charged with checking on all vio-
lations; he must see what com-
plaints are about; he canvas
his area to see that the tin-can
collection is going properly.

re Chief Sets Hrccodent

By Refusing 3-A Men Jobs

Help Wanted: Firemen, Only
married men with children need
apply!

‘This was the sign which should
have been hung out by the Fire
Department last week, according
to the impression received by eli-
gibles on the fireman list cer
fied by the Service Commis-
sion to the Fire Department for
the 200 September 16 appoint-
ments,

Only those eligibles with 3-A
draft classifications who were
married prior to September 15,
1940, were accepted by the Fire
Department for this week's sched-
uled appointments, Unmarried
‘eligibles in 3-A with parents, sis-
ters, brothers, or others depend-
ent upon them for support were
passed over by the Fire Depart-
ment, in addition to eligibles
married gince Sept. 15, 1940, and
those with 1-A and 2-B classifica-
tions and lads in military reserve
outfits,

One lad, married a few days
after September 15, and now the
father of a child, was passed over.

‘The sudden, unprecedented edict
by Fire Commissioner Patrick
Walsh caused some heated mo-
ments last week—perhaps some of
the most heated between eligibles
and commissioner in the City's
history.

Walsh puts it simply:

He can't afford to fill vacancies
in the department with men who

will be drawn off into Army sery-
fee.

The eligibles put
simply:

The Commissioner has no right
to refuse jobs to the men,

By late Friday, over 500 eligibles
whose names were certified by the
Civil Service Commission to the
Five Department in the order of
their standing on the list were
passed over by appointing officers
of the Fire Department, With the
acceptance of 150 men at that
time, the certifications made by
the Civil Service Commission had
reached number 1,657 on the list.

aw Says Unly 1-A

Under the Halpern amendment
to the State Military Law, the
Fire Department has the right to
pass over eligibles in 1-A and in
military reserve outfits. These
eligibles ave to be considered in
the same status of those already
in the armed forces, according to
the Halpern Act. When the first
200 appointments from the fire-
man’ list were made last July, the
Fire Department also passed over
lads with 2-B (occupational defers
ment) classifications. Reason for
this was that the eligibles would
immediately become 1-A when
they ended their defense employ-
ment,

First inkling of the new policy
of the Fire Department came last
Tuesday when 200 of the
eligibles certified by the Civil
Service Commission appeared at
the headquarters of the F.D.E.A.
C, in 31 Engine, 91 Lafayette St.
for the appointments, Ninety-five
of the 200 lads brought their 3-A
dvaft classifications with them,
However, 51 of these were either
unmarried or were married Jater
than September 15, 1940, boy's with
collateral dependents,

Each one of the 51 was told
that his name would be passed
over because of his draft status.
Only 44 eligibles with 3-A draft
classifications who had been mar-
ried prior to September 15, 1940,
were accepted for appointment by
the Department that day,

Next morning a committee of
five angry eligibles met with
Fire Commissioner Patrick Walsh.
They were told by Walsh that
their names were being passed
over because of an announcement
by Selective Service officials that
those in 3-A with collateral de-
pendents would soon be reclassi-
fied into 1A, Any eligible in 3-A
with collateral dependents who
could produce a letter from his
draft board to the effect that he
would not be reclassified Into 1-A
would be appointed, Walsh said.
The eligibles pointed out (1) that
no draft board issues such letters,
and (2) that the Commissioner
was acting illogally in refusing
appointments to -A men

Thursday night, the Fire Eli
gibles’ Association met in Wash-
ington Irving High School and de
cided to take the necessary legal
steps to protect the rights of those
skipped for appointment, Mean-
while the Fire Department re-
quested the Ciyil Service Commis-
sion to certify more names from
the cligible list in order to get
200 men from the list who were
married prior to September 15,
1940 and whose dependents rate
them a 3-A classification,

A3 The LEADER went to press,
officials of the Fire Department
were unable to estimate what
number on the lst they would
have to reach in order to get 200
men, with dependents, married

tractor operators in the Dep:
ment of Sanitation who were sus

cording to David A, Savage, at-
torney for the eight men, Sus-
pensions of eight days were meted

Cily Doesn't Pay

The eight men who are paid at
the rate of $9 a day refused to
work overtime on Friday, Septem-
ber 4, beeause the city does not
pay overtime, In sentencing the
men, Diserio eald that they were
not permitted to question their
superior’s action,

Savage pointed out that there
are 44 jobs for tractor operators
in the budget but only 82 tractor
operator ctually are working in
the Sanitation Department, He
suid that sanitation men class B

and C are operating tractars out
of titles, in direct violation of
civil service rules and regula-
tions,

The working of city employees
overtime without compensation is
a violation of section 160 of the
State Labor Law, according to
Savage.

Have Department. Heads a Right
To Deny Leave of Absence?

Many department heads in New York City are refusing leave

of absence to employees who desire to take jobs connected with

the war effort,

Hixve they the right to do this? They claim

they have, but the law ts against them, says David A, Owens, @

LEADER reader,

Sirs:

So that Mayor LaGuardia and
the heads of City departments
will stop thinking that they have
anything to do with employees’
Leave of Absence, let us look at

“The Civil Service Law’ (1941)
p. 108,
“Rule XVI. Reinstatement in

Service:

‘4, Any person who has held a
competitive position under the
Civil Service Fules and who has
heen separated from the service
through no delinquency or mis-
conduct on his part, by removal,
resignation, suspension, by leave
of absence without pay, may be
reinstated without re-examination
in a vacant position in the same
office, department or institution,
and in the same group, subdivis-
ion and grade, within one year

Practieal

Here's his letter, citing the law:

from date of such separation; ..,
Absence on leave for more than
one year shall be deemed tho
equivalent of a resignation from
the service upon the date of com.
mencement of such absence,”

“mm computing period of time
under this subdivision, time of ac.
tive service in the military or
naval forces of the United States
or the State of New York, and
time of emptoyment jn the pro.
duction, construction or manufac«
ture of equipment or supplies or
in war relief or educational worl
for such forces, shall not be con-

red.’

“Bligibility for reinstatement ov
reappointment at the,pleasure of
the proper appointing officer,

shall not be limited to one
year, but shall continue indefi-
nitely. .

Yours Oe Law and Order,

Two Patrolman Rosters Set Up;
Jobs Came Fast for No. 2 List

A decision by the Civil Service
Commission to adhere strictly to
the examination announcement
and establish two separate eli-
gible lists for patrolman and spe-
cial patrolman resulted in the
publication of these lists
Wednesday, six days after candi.
dates had been notified of their
results, Plans to combine the two
lists into one which could be used
to fill vacancies as patrolman in
the Police Department were
abandoned for the present time.

The decision was made after
the possibility of combining the
lists was thoroughly discussed

early last week with representa-
tives

of the Law Department.
W. Marsh, president of the
ipal Civil Service Com
sion, told The LEADER,
Commission decided to est
the lists exactly as announ
order to avoid future litigation.”
Sill May Combine

A possibility that the special
patrolman list might still be w
ut some future date to fill vacr
cies as patrolman in the Polic
Department was seen when Presi-
dent Marsh said, “If the first list
is exhausted, there is a possibility
that the second list will be con-
sidered by the Commi
Police Department.”

Mental Hygiene Shortages Become
So Serious Patients May Be Released

ALBANY — Almost 3,000 em-
ployes of State Mental Hygiene in-
have gone into the
armed forces or into higher pay:
ing war production jobs, Commi:
sioner Tiffany, head of the de-
partment, said this week. He de-
scribed the situation as ‘perturb-

Ih many cases women have been
found to fill in the vacancies and

Patients May Be Released

‘The Legislature this year passed
a bill which prohibits the employ-
ment of persons in thesa institu
tions under the age of 18, This
stopped- up a source of employ-
ment which the department had
looked to. A survey is being con-
ducted by Dr. Tiffany and his as-
sociates to determine how many
more patients may be released to
private homes,

He said the
women in men
definite enough to

“experience of
positions was not

whether they will eventually sup.
plant men in those positions.
Some Oppose Civil Service

Dr. Tiffany said that “civit
service” officials have been most
cooperative, Many here believe
that the jobs in Mental Hygiene
hospitals placed under civil sery-
ice never should have been so de
ignated, The low pay and hard
work involved, despite the bonus
and pay rise voted by the Legisla-
ture and Governor Lehman this
year, make the jobs among the
Jenst attractive in State service.

‘This situation, which may be.

campaign, is one that merits long.

Turn Back Funds

ALBANY, — War,

is also reducing expenditures in
others, with the result that most
State departments are turning
back into the treasury une.
pended balances of appropriations
made by the Legislature.

‘This is revealed in figures com-
piled by State Comptroller jo-
seph V, O'Leary which show that
some $5,400,000 of unspent funds
in last year’s budget will go back
into the treasury as compared
with $3,800,000 of lapsed, or un-
used appropriations the year
previou:

Under a new State act, all ap-
propriations that are unused
lapse at the end of the fiscal year
for which they are enacted with
payments permitted from th
appropriations however until the
following November 15. The fisc:l
year which ended June 30 showed
after adjustments, lapses of
about $5,400,000, a new high, Soma
of these may represent obligations
unpaid as of June 30 and which
will and must be paid by Novem-
ber 15, but the actual amount of
unspent appropriations revertiny
to the treasury will not be much
less than that figure, it is esti-
mated,

If You Wantto Beeomean Apprentice
In Industry, Here’s How to Do It

It's still time enough to be-
come an apprentice to help spur
the war effort.

One way to become an appren-
tice is to register with a local
United States Employment Serv-
ice office equipped with a record
of companies engaged in war pro-
duction.

The student either may expect
to be placed by the employment
service in a job—if he or she has
the necessary ability—or may seek
to find possible openings in the
field by taking advantage of yo-
cational guidance service offered
throughout the city, such as at
the Vocational Guidance Bureau
of the Board of Education at 239
Hast 1ith Street, Manhattan; the
Junior Intake Section of the Em-
ployment Service at 87 Madison

Avenue, Manhattan; the West
Side Y.M.C.A., at 5 West 68rd
Street, Manhattan; consultation

bureau of the United States Em-
ployment Service at 124 East 28th
Street, Manhattan, or at trade
unions, offices or the plant of an
employer,

Age: 16 to 23

Average age for applicants
ranges from 16 to 23; aptitude
and trade tests are offered at the
above-mentioned agencies to de-
termine whether one ought to
concentrate on an apprenticeship.

Industries are interested mainly
in those with a technical high
school education or its equivalent
—courses that equip an under-
graduate with a rudimentary
knowledge for a trade, Frequent-
ly an ordinary high school stu-
dent is acceptable if he reveals
sufficient aptitude,

The employer, on signing an
‘agreement with the apprentice,
agrees to provide sufficient oppor-
tunities for advancement; the ap-
prentice, in return, agrees not to
shirk any tas

Fields for Apprentices

Metal trades, shipbuilding and
aircraft are still the big fields
calling for apprentices,

Machine shop, mechanical draw.

the attractive cou

The Apprentice-Training Serv-
ice, under the Federal Security
Agency, ties up with the employ-
ers, and in bringing apprentice
and boss together. It is this serv-
ice that helps employers in setting
up training programs for appren-
tices in the plants—especially in

those plants engaged in war
work,
Wage scales vary for appren-

tices in each plant. The average
wage during one’s apprenticeship
is not less than 50 percent of a
journeyman's wage in that trade,

however, The whole picture is
actually a voluntary proposition
entered into between apprentice
and employer, and is designed to
suit varied conditions.

‘The apprentice course runs from
two to five years and this is
coupled with a minimum of four

hours a week of related training
amounting to 144 hours a year in
high school or university.

An apprentice who completes his
training qualifies as a highly
skilled worker or journeyman and
in time may become a foreman
or leadman

Here’s What NYA Offers
To Young Men, Women

Almost 3,000 students are being
skilled for the war effort by the
National Youth Administration in
the New York City-Long Island
area and the demand for more
women is growing daily

Machine shop, welding, sheet
metal work, electricity, automo-
tive work, power machine sewing,
radio technicians’ training and
clerical work are still the big of-
ferings at NYA in the local area,

All of the cou except the
radio technicians’ curriculum, last

ception is three to nine months.
Some of the courses have as many
as three shifts a day,

Applicants accepted for NYA
training are paid $25.60 a month
to defray expenses, They're ex-
pected to attend NYA work ex-
perience centers or related train-
ing units eight hours a day, mak-
ing a total of 160 hours each
month. Applications for training
in any of the units are being re-
ceived daily at 145 E: ind

Men who want to join the
Marine Corps aren't deluged with

Fire Commissioner

Vs. Fire Eligibles

i] N THE quarrel between the Fire eligibles and Com-

missioner Walsh of the Fire Department, it seems
to us that the eligibles are clearly on stronger

ground, This is why:
1, There is no I

I sanction available to a commis-
sioner to set up his own draft regulations, He can’t re-
fuse to hire 3-A men. The law is definite and precise on
this. It allows him to pass over only 1-A men,

2. By den jobs to 3-A men who may be called to
military service, the Commissioner is depriving them of
a right which should properly be theirs upon their return

from service

i¢ right to a job in the Fire Department.
The draft regulations are in a state of flux, and

must not be left to the whims of local officials.
4. If the Fire Department succeeds in keeping out
3-A men cn the frivolous excuse that they weren't mar-
ried on September 15, 1940—more than one year before

Pearl H you have set a serious precedent which
may be m
5. A wee is placed in the whole concept of protec-

tive civil vice law, and the merit system is the ulti-
mate sufferer,

Commissioner Walsh knows, as The LEADER knows,
that he had no answer to the first of these arguments,
when it was presented to him by the eligibles. The Law
Department knows that its approach to the attorney of
the eligibles (whom they called in when he threatened an
injunction) was only a request to “play ball”; the De-
partment asked him to think of the “moral” right of the
Fire Department to protect itself. It didn’t, however,
say that the men had a substantial moral right, as well
as a legal right, to the jobs.

We think this is an important issue. We hope that
Commissioner Walsh will withdraw from his position
before it results in a knock-down fight-it-out battle in
the courts.

! | alight in the most unusual places. Ncw vomes

the story that one James M Leonard, of the
Detroit Bureau of Governmental Research, points a hor-
rified finger at New York City as “a perfect example of
a city which is over-policed.”

Where, let us ask the gentleman from Detroit, did he
get his standards of what constitutes an “over-poticed”
community? Does he know that New York City for the
past several years has been severely below its allotted
quota of men? Is he aware that the men on New York’s
force work in accordance with the “10-squad chart,”
which means a longer work-week than that which pre-
vails in private industry? Does he know that large
sections of the city are insufficiently policed, by any
standard? And does he realize there's a war on—and
New York is a vulnerable city—and that in wartime we
need more, not less, police?

The gentleman from Detroit, we regret to
know what he is talking about.

COMING SOON
THE DRAFT AND YOU

Just what's correct and what isn’t in
the welter of draft information?
Here's information tor every man—

A LEADER Special Issue.

Sanitation Stingers

The Mayor's office isn't happy
about those $5 beeksteak tickets
which are being sold in the Sani-
tation Department ... Abe Kasoff
has been called in for conversa-
tions with the Commissioner re-
cently, which didn't leave him too
happy ... Abe, by the way, isn't
hitting it off with his former col-
leagues in the Joint Council of
Drivers and Sweepers... And we
hear he can't depend on the sale
of tickets to a boxing bout in or-
der to recoup his organization's
finances .. . And if those AFL
dues aren't paid up soon, Abe, you
know what will happen... The
proposed probe of the manner in
which tickets were sold for the
big Sanitation-Fire baseball game
has been quietly quashed.

And Other Things

Don't be surprised if an explo-
n comes out of the Health De-
One story has it t
Doe R'ce, former commissioner,
still on the payroll because he ha
years to go before retiring...
And Dr, Margaret W. Barnard ha
en the title of Assistant
Commissioner in the Health De-
partment, a title which doesn’t ap-
pear in the budget ... The Army
Signal Corps and the draft boards
are having their differences, be-
cause the draft boards won't al-
ways permit 1-A men to enlist in
the Corps... The U. S, Navy is
the largest employer of labor in the
country ... H, Eliot Kaplan, who
had been desperately ill with pneu-
monia, is back in his office, which
we are pleased to learn... The
Brooklyn Navy Yard is amazed at
the illiteracy it encounters—adult
Americans who can’t even name
the streets the eon!.., There
was a gross error about the patrol-
man list in last Thursda, City

The Problem of
City-wide Promotions

Sirs: In the midst of a mass of
progressive civil service action a
most vital promotional procedure

been unprogressively
pped.
result of an adverse court
decision abolishing city-wide pro-
s, the civil servic
nfortunately is
ituation can be remedied by
appropriate legislation. However,
the Commission in a totally in-
comprehensible reversal of its
former progressive attitude, has
osten: completely lost its in-
terest in furthering a career serv-
je it appe: to have made
no serious effort to secure the
pe e of legislation which will
once more permit city-wide pro-
motions.

Hundreds of clerks, bookkeepers
and accountants are at present
stranded in their respective de-
partments and cannot be pro-
moted to vacancies which exist in
other departments having no eli-
gible lists.

We wonder what the Commis-
sion intends to do about the very
pressing issue of restoring city-
wide promotions.

YOUNG MAN with a future in
New York City civil service is en-
ergetic, alert Donald Savage. At
25, a veteran of three City départ-
ments; Donald has established a
name for himself as an amiable
but tenacious fighter for lost
causes, a pleasant-mannered, per-
suasive advocate of the rights of
civil service eligibles and em-
ployees.

Before another year has passed,
Donald may have the pleasure of
seeing one of his favorite lost
causes materialize into a belated,
but just victory. This was the
fight to have the special patrol-
man (second) list used to fill va~
cancies as patrolman in the Po-
Department. For the past
two years Donald and a few other
persistent, undaunted associates
have been knocking on the M

. ing the Civil Sev
ion, the Police De-
ment, other necessary City
ficials, heads of employee organ-
izations, newspaper offices in at
tempts to convince the C
the boys w sed an xa
patrolman mental and physical
test with an average of seventy
percent or better were thoroughly
qualified to be appointed to jobs
as patrolmen.

Although Donald Jost out in the
fight to have the 483 names on
the old special patrolman list
added to the patrolman list which
just expired, his efforts were not
in vain. By the time the new pa-
trolman list came out, the City
was well-acquainted with the
arguments for combining lists one
and two. And it may yet be done.

In Queens Tunnel

Currently, a special patrolman

in the Queens Midtown Tunnel,

Men

Donald has seen service in a sim
ilar capacity in the Department
of Welfare and, for three sum-
mers, as a temporary playground
director in the Parks Department.
In a short time, Donald expects
to find his name on the payroll of
either the Police’or Fire depart-
ment, He stands number 444 on
the patrolman list just out, num-
ber 1,038 on the fire list estab-
lished last fall.

Donald’s work in reviving the
old special patrolman eligibles’
association in the fight for the
Police Department appointments
came in handy when the fireman
list was promulgated. He helped
get the fire eligibles association
started and was quickly elect-
ed vice-president. Meanwhile he
formed the Tunnel Police Benevo-
lent Association for the benefit of
his fellow-cops on the Queens
Midtown, He’s president of this
group. He is also a member of
the recently-organized Committee
for the Preservation of the Merit
System, He is probably the only
member of this committee who is
an executive in both an eligible's
association and an employee or-
ganization,

Law School

Donald hasn't spent all his
spare time fighting for the rights
of civil service eligibles and em-
ployees. Since his graduation
from Fordham in 1939, he has
been attending Fordham Law
School three hours a night, four
nights a week—no mean trick
when you consider that he puts
in an eight-hour tour six nights
a week patrolling his tunnel beat.
He took advantage of the wartime
schedule at Fordham and expects
to graduate from law school in
Februa

Naturally, Donald is specializing
in civil service law. In doing
this, he is following a precedent
established by his brother Dave,
+ who has a grows
ing ice practice, Some
day, Donald hopes to be associat+
ed with Dave,

‘This ambition might make Don-
ald sound like a dull, plodding
pedantic workhorse, On the con-
trary, he is decidedly alive, witty,
quick on the trigger, Slim, dap-
per in appearance, Donald flashes
a ready smile, is a smooth talker,
Civil Service law could use hi

Outside of civil service, Donald's
other interests lie in the Army Air
Corps—he's a member of the en-
listed reserve—and in a certain
young red-haired social investiga
tor he met while working as a
special patrolman in Welfares
We can't tell you her name but

QUESTION, PLEASE

Rating and Seniority

G. J. Ha: The rating assigned
city employees for record and
seniority on promotion’ examina-
tions is made up from two sepa-
rate sources. The first of these
assigned him for
seniority in the city serv:ce, Be-
ginning with a basic 40 per cent,
the employee is entided to one
half of one per cent for each year
of service in the city up to a
maximum of 10 years. The second
source is the service-rating mark
the.employee receives for work in
an eligible title for the examina-
tion.

In determining the seniority
part of your record and seniority
mark on the promotion examina-
tion for assistant foreman in the
Department of Sanitation, you are
undoubtedly credited with full
seniority for your years of city
service from the date of your
original appointment in 1928 as an
automobile engineman in the De-
partment of Correction. However,
in determining the service rating
part of your record and senior
mark, you were only credited
with the service ratings you re-
ceived while employed in the e
gible title of Sanitation Man,
Class C.

Although automobile enginemen
were admitted to the assistant
foreman test, they were later de-
clared ineligible for participation
in this examination. Consequent-
ly, the service ratings you re-
ceived while employed as an auto-
mobile engineman did not count
in determining your record and
seniority rating,

Eligible Lists
Last 4 Years

A. Z.: Eligibles who are placed
on preferred lists established by
the New York State Department
of Civil Service and the Municipal
Civil Service Commission of New
York City can remain on these
preferred lists for a period of four
years,

Resigning a Job

L. P.: If you resigned your
position of clerk, grade 2, in a
New York City department dur-
ing your probationary period, you
may request the Civil ,Service
Commission to restore your name
to the clerk, grade 2, list as soon
as you feel that you are willing
to accept another appointment in
the same title. Inasmuch as you
did not complete your probation-
ary period as a clerk, grade 2,
you do not have the privilege of
reinstatement to that position,

Conditional Rejection

I, K.: Patrolman candidates
who were conditionally rejected
have until the life of the eligible
list to correct the causes of their
conditions. If you were condi-
tionally rejected because of teeth
defects, you may write to the Civil
Service Commission and request
& re-examination as soon as you
have your teeth repaired,

It is always best to get these
ve-examinations over as quickly
ss possible, so that your name
will not be passed up if you are
reached for certification to any
position,

While we're on the subject of
shows, we might as well mention
that the Honor Legion will hold

and, as usual, paid-up members
who buy tickets will most likely
be exctised from duty that night.
Plans for this year’s affair will
be worked out at the first Fall
meeting of the Legion, Tuesday,
September 22, in the Florentine
Room of the Park Central, As
usual, Honor Legion members will
enjoy corned beef, cabbage and

If you are one of those jitter
bugs who likes something a little
more conservative than straight
jive, you might find the Plaza,
opposite the Brooklyn Paramount
‘Theatre, under the supervision of
‘Charles Carol, much more conyen-
tional than you suspected.

The ball room fs open for danc-
ing on Thursday through Sunday
from 8:30 p.m. to 1:39 a.m.,, with
special sessions on Friday until
4a. m, Saturday, On Thursday
and Sundays they have two orch-
estras, one sweet and one hot, so
that you are hound to be satified,
which ever you like, —

Cooperative
Apartment

Once upon a time, a group of ten=
ants decided they’ were going to
bulla themselves an ideal home at
minimum cost. ‘They made _ th
rooms large, put in everything th
could afford to. They picked a si
where the land wa cheap, they
landscaped the area with plenty of
gardens and play space for chil-
ren.

‘Time crept up on them, The sub-
ways moved close to their door, al-
though the cooperztive venture ‘w
originally restricted, today the
house is wide open, {ffiliated with
the Cooperative League of U.S.
and is under the supervision OF thé
New York State Board of Housing,
Thirty-three minutes’ riding time
from’ Times Square, they offer a
real buy. To obtain a lease of an
apartment, one must invest in
shares of the corporation—about
$500 per room, (You can become
a tenant with as little as $100 down,
If you want to drop out, you can

t your money back by’ giving 99

notice.)

you are shopping for a new
place to live, drop in at the Amal-
gamated Housing project at 80 Van
Gortlandt Park’ South, Mosholu
Park station on the east side line.
You will find the trip interesting,
to say the least.

Ployees for two generations, and
hey have been a life-saver to lots
of people needing money in a hurry.
Of course in the course of years
they have accumulated a lot of fine
things which are ayailable at less

Parks Short of Cash

The time is coming, of course,
when the Parks Department may
have to go back to the Board of
Estimate—and very soon—and ask
for appropriations to alleviate the
shortage in personnel, a depart
ment spokesman told The LEAD-
ER this week

However, there is this to con-
sider, said he: the maintenance
forces have held up better than
expected despite the severe man-
ner in which the draft has been
weeding out personnel. Most of
the boys in the operational divi-
sion are still in their jobs and
have a good chance, because of
advanced age and dependencies, to
remain there for some indefinito
period, It hag been the clerks and
recreational workers and the
younger attendants who have been
mainly removed from the depart-
ment, to date.

Older Men Threatened

‘The threatened removal of some
of these older men fvom the ope!
ational forces would cause the de-
partment to shudder and thini
seriously of running to the Board
of Estimate despite the fact that
Commissioner Robert Moses
wouldn't exactly relish a task of
this kind. At least not if his dis-
gust evidenced at the last budget
paring session was and js any in-
dication,

The report that a number of de-
partment people—engineers and
higher paid personnel—are worlk-
ing on post war planning while
others struggle with current bur-
dens isn't handicapping the de-
partment to any noticeable de-
gree, the department spokesman
pointed out; the reason, said he,
{s that not enough employees are
engaged in the post-war work.

It was admitted that the sum-
mer burdens of the personnel have
been particularly heavy “but this

has been as much because of the
gas rationing program, causing
many people to go into the parks
‘who wouldn't otherwise do so, as
to the shortage developing in the
department.” Then, too, The
LEADER was told, there have
been summer substitutes to help
carry the burden.

‘The shortage, in short, is going
to become critical from this point
on, if it is to become critical at
all, And the department is just
hoping its estimate of the type
of personnel in the operational
forces is correct. After all, there
must be a Parks Department.

Note to You

Now that the autumn season fs
on top of us, and no doubt you
are going to attend more meetings
and have more activities, why not
drop us a line regularly letting us
have notices of mestings and,
later on, what happened? Also,
how about keeping us informed
every week about what's going on
in your division?

Stenocode Course

‘As machinery takes the place of
manpower in industry, it has been
slowly encroaching on finger
power for stenographers, Steno-
code, an advanced form of steno-
typy, has been developed by E. A.
Kerwin, a court stenographer for
more than 20 years. The sys-
tem can be learned and written
without conflicting outlines in a
comparatively short time, very
much as a chord is played on a
plano, More definite than other
forms of machine typing, the sys-
tem oftentimes covers four words
with one depression, By the use
of phonetic writing, the operator
may report Spanish and other
languages on the standard key-
board machine, such as the steno-
graph and stenotype,
Kerwin gives free demon-
tions, and has managed ag
much as 140 words per minute
without difficulty.

Languages and Business

The Poza Institute of Lan-
guages and Business has added
classes in Spanish and Portu-
guese to the day and evening
classes in Commercial English for
Secretaries and Stenographers, at
no additional tuition charge. With
a view to the future commercial
ties between the U. S. and Span-
ish America, a course in Interna-
tional Commerce has been inau-
gurated,

The Exporting Course which the
Institute offers consists in addi-
tion to the theoretical studies of

the Commercial Geography of
America, Exporting Laws, Con-
sular Documents, ete., of prac-
tical exercises in which the stu-
dent learns the various steps
necessary to export to all the

countries of Latin America.

War Activities

The SCMWA Is heightening its
activities in support of the war ef-

fee, A service flag is going to be
dedicated to them with public

Distributes War Booklets

James V. King, the union
retary-treasurer, states that the
union is continuing with the dis-
tribution of literature regarding
the issues inyolved in the war.
Five thousand copies each have
already been distributed to civil
service workers of Vice-Presi-
dent Wallace's historic speech, the
Federal pamphlets, ‘Unconquered
People” and ‘Divide and Con-
quer,” the National Maritime
Union public letter on the need
for the immediate opening of a

second front, and the Leland
Stowe dispatch on the gravity of
the situation on the Eastern Front.
Arrangements are now being made
for a widespread distribution of
the pamphlet recently issued by
the Office of War Information on
the Four Freedoms.

The union has already conducted
several street rallies at different
points throughout the city in sup-
port of President's Roosevelt's
agreements with the Soviet and
British Governments for the open-
ing of a second front. King sald
that these rallies will continue
‘until the only sure guarantee of
victory for the United Nations—
the opening up of @ second land
front in Europe—ts realized.””

posal that all civil service em-
Ployees and their families be
