HERE'S WHAT Senator Bstes
Kefauver thinks about civil ser-
vice. His opinions are, of course,
important to all persons in pul
le positions, as are the opinions
of all prospective United States
presidential candidates.

This column submitted a series
of questions to the candidates, The
first responses came from Senator
Kefauver. They have this virtue:
They are terse, direct, to-the-point

—even when they may be in con-
flict with some of the views held}
by public employees. Kefauver re-|
sponded quickly and didn’t evade |
any questions.

The questions and Senator Ke-
fauver's replies:

1. What is your view with re-
spect to the proposal that all Fed-
eral positions, with the exception
of top policy-making posts, es |
be brought under civil service? }

ees Association will meet this
week with representatives of the|
State Civil Service Commission to

discuss a proposal that would abol-
ish heat leaves for State workers.

At a meeting early in April, the
State Personnel Council adopted
® resolution to the Civil Service
Commission asking that the cur-|
Fent and long-standing practice
of granting State workers free)
time off on days when the mercu-
ry soared, be done away with,

Instead, the Personnel Council's
resolution asked that a procedure
be adopted by which any indi-
vidual employee who felt unable
to work because of the uncom-
fortable position be allowed to
leave, but time so taken would be
charged against that employee's
sick time,

At it’s meeting last week the
Commission received @ letter from
the Civil Service Employees Asso-
ciation asking for a meeting on
this subject. Representing the As-
sociation will be William McDon-

president; Dr. Wayne Soper, at-

BINGHAMTON, May 26. — So-
cial security for public employees?

‘The question is one upon which
there is a great deal of thinking
among State and local employees,

One group of local employees
set out to get some answers. David
Tingley, chairman of a committee
on the subject in the Broome
County chapter, Civil Service Em-
ployees Association, communicated
with three authorities in order to
| get a clear picture of the situation
as it is now. He received answers
from William FP, McDonough, ex-
ecutive assistant to the president
of the EA; H, Eliot Kaplan,
Deputy State Comptroller, and
| George E. Rawson, regional repre-
| sentative of the Federal Security
| Agency. Exerpts from their letters
follow

Mr, McDonough said

| “You may secure from the local |

Social Security Offices a booklet
entitled "Your New Social Secur-
ity’ and some printed forms which
explain very clearly just how
Social Security applies under all
| cireumstances,

“While Congress authorized the!

extension of Social Security to
public employees in various states
where such public employees were
not covered by a retirement sys-
tem, this cannot be applied in New
York State to those employees of
villages, towns and school dis-
tricts, ete,, who do not now have
State Retirement System cover-
age, until the State Legislature
|passes a statute which provides
for the collection of Social Secur-
ity benefits and for other admini-
stration by the State as Federal
laws require. There must be Fed-
eral as well as State Legislation to
authorize such extension of Social
Security, The prospects, therefore,
for any early Social Security
coverage are not bright,

| “The Association is watching the
situation very closely and I be-
lieve the Legislative Committee
is urging a thorough study by
the Legislature with the idea of
| bringing forth some helpful plan
of integration of the two plans or
supplementing the Retirement
| System benefits.”

Mr. Kaplan writes:

“Under present provisions of the

Social Security for Public
Employees? They Begin
To Get Some Answers

| Zederat Social Security Act none

of the political subdivisions of the
State may provide Social Security
coverage for their employees un-
less and until the Legislature
authorizes the State to make an
agreement with the Federal So-
cial Security Administrator to pro-
vide for such coverage,

“For your information the prob-
lem is still under study by the
State authorities.”

Mr, Rawson said:

“Effective January 1, 1951, one
of the amendments of the Social
Security Act provides for the
| coverage of certain state and local
government employees pursuant
to volunteer agreements among
States and the Federal Admini-
strator, The coverage of employees
of a State or any of its instru-
mentalities or political subdivisions
is not automatic but depends on
what action the State desires to
take. However, under the present
law any agreement may not in-
clude the services performed by
employees of any coverage groups

in positions covered by an exist-
ing retirement system.”

Political Parties Have Stake in Merit
System, Stearns Tells Herkimer Aides

ILION, May 26. — Addressing
75 county, town and village em-
ployees at Ilion Gorge, J. Allyn
Stearns of White Plains, 3rd Vice
‘resident of the Civil Service Em-

ployees Association, stated that
| political parties should favor the
merit system in civil service, as
‘do taxpayers and the public em-

wrer; Joseph Callahan, banquet chairmen,

ployees themselves. He pointed out
that “it is a fact that a properly
rewarded merit system pays for
itself through insuring that the
best fitted and most efficient
workers will enter and in
the public service.” Mg. s
continued, “Under our two-party
system a political party eannot
afford the luxury of inefficient of-
fice holders—not if it wants to
remain in power.”

Speaking at the spring banquet
of Herkimer Chapter of The Civil
Service Employees Association at
Remington Inn, Mr, Stearns
stated that “the Association is
dedicated to the principle of
merit and fitness in the public

ployees’ interests runs parallel
with advancement of the interest
of the public at large and with
betterment of the public serfice,”
Purther, “that the Association has
achieved wide recognition for its
success in harmoniously advanc-
ing the interests of the employees
while at the same time improving
the public service for the general
welfare.”

He stated, “theoretically, all em-
Ploying authorities are in favor
of the merit and career system in
public service because it has a
high-sounding appeal and the de-
sirability of such a system is hard
to argue about. However, in prac-
tice, its installation is discouraged
and evaded by every possible

means in many areas and when

service and to the belief that ad- |
vancement of the public em-/

installed, ft is unfortunately beset
by every type of effort to circum-
vent it or to debase its proper
operation in many more juris-
dictions that I would care to
mention.

“One of the biggest jobs of the
Association is the attempt to see
that the merit and career system
is given full opportunity to oper-
ate freely in the public service
without the baleful influence of

| the spoils system.” The backing

of the Association by all public
employees is needed for this pur-
Pose, he stated.

The Association vice president
also discussed the defeat of the
Mahoney Bill to abolish the State
Civil Service Commission and sub-
stitute a single personnel admini-
strator answerable only to the
Governor. Defeat of this bill in
the Legislature was accomplished
largely through the efforts of the
Association both in Albany and
through the concerted action of
the Chapters, he said. The Asso-
ciation favors revision of the Civil
Service Law but not along the

“ripper” Ines proposed in the
Mahoney Bill, Mr, Stearns con-
cluded.

New Uniform

for Female

Attendants Foreseen in
Mental Hygiene Department

ALBANY, May 26 — The Mental
Hygiene Department’s committee
Investigating complaints on at-
tendants’ uniforms will visit Ro-

chester this week to confer with
representatives of upstate instl-
tutions on the matter,

Headed by Daniel Shea, assist-
‘nt secretary to the Mental Hy-
giene Commission, the committee
includes Mrs.. Margaret Farrar,
director of public relations, and
Mrs. Cecelia Abrahamer, assistant
director of nursing services.

The women, a Department
spokesman said, were named to
the committee in order to maintain
the female outlook on this trouble-
some fashion question, and their
appointment had nothing to do
with their official positions,

Employees at 11 of the depart-
ment’s 27 institutions have filed
complaints against something
about the uniform. Some refer to
the manner in which the skirt
“hangs.” Others object to the
shape and fit of the sleeves.

Still other complaints concern
themselves with the colors chosen
or the materials used.

Designed New Uniform

One enterprising group at Pil-
grim State Hospital went to the
trouble to design and construct a

new uniform. Models wearing this!

design appeared at the committee
hearings for downstate institu-
tions when the group visited Long
Island a week or so ago.

A sample of the Pilgrim State
Proposed garment is now being
shown by the committee as it
makes rounds. While, the garment
itself does not answer all the ob-
jections, including the important
one of expense, still it does show
an improvement according to at-
tendants who have viewed it.

New Uniform Foreseen

In the eyes of the committee
“there seems to be no way out of
finally adopting a new and dif-
ferent uniform which will embody
as many of the proposed improve
ments as possible without increas-
ing*the cost too much.”

At present, attendants buy their
own uniforms and pay prices
ranging from $5.95 up.

Another factor under considera~
tion is the ease of laundering.
Since most institution laundries
already are taxed to capacity, the
committee must come up with a
new uniform which will not strain
these facilities more.

Following completion of its
scheduled talks with employee rep-
resentatives the committee ex-
pects to meet with manufactur-
ers in an effort to work out the
new uniform,

State Senator Seymour Halpern,
veteran Queens law-maker who
hag initiated some of the most
progressive civil service legisia-
tion, has been designated the “out-
standing native-born New Yorker
for 1951." This was announced by
George Archinal, President of the
New York Society for the City of
New York.

‘The 38 year old Senator Halpern
received the society's plaque at a
Testimonial Dinner in his honor
at the Hotel Astor on Saturday,
May 24th. The award has in the
past been presented to a long line
of native New Yorkers, starting
with the late Governor Alfred B
Smith.

More than 1200 persons promi-
nent in the city’s civic, business
and industrial life paid tribute to

should be named the chapter
“Jack in the Box” as it was noted
that Henry was always coming up

gestions at the Armory Employees
conference meeting. Nice going,
Henry.

Room 905, New York City, Cort-
landt 7-9800.

Was nice to see good friend
Frank Emmrich, former employee
of Kingsbridge Armory, now en-
Joying his days on the retired list,
dropping in to say hello to the
gang. The very best of health to

;| you, Prank, for the many pleasant

years to come.

President Bill Maher introduced
Brigadier General Hugh Cox,'C.G.,
42nd Division Artillery, New York
National Guard. The General
praised the armory employees for
the extra and long hours of duty
usually imposed in armories, and
stressed the importance of recruit-
ing in the New York National
Guard. He asked the help of all
Armory employees to make the
New York National Guard the best
in the country and also mentioned
the fact that all young men be-
fore they become 18% years of age
(and who have not yet been noti-
fied to take a pre-induction phy-
sical examination) who enlist in
the National Guard are then mem-
bers of a Reserve Component of
the Dept. of Defense, and are
thereby deferred from the draft.

Some of the many opportunities
for National Guardsmen are:
Eligibility for appointment to the
U. S. Military Academy, West
Point; a commission in the Guard,
same pay scale as regular Army,
athletic facilities, social events,
and also two weeks of field train-
ing. The Guard also enables young
men to continue their studies and
still be of service to their country.

We are sorry to hear that Joseph

’} Dunn, Supt. 106th Infantry, Bklyn,

was not up to par. Glad to hear
you're feeling well again,

Mr. Maher thanks Brigadier
|General Hugh Cox, Officer in
Charge and Control of the King:
bridge Armory, Supt. Edward Cul-
len, and the staff of the Armory
employees of the host armory for
their fine hospitality.

The chapter extends sincere
sympathy to the family of Edward
H. Pfaff, Supt. of 33rd Fleet Divi-
sion Armory, Staten Island, New
York, who died May 7. Mr. Pfaff's
hove is a great lost to the Chap-

ter.

The son of James McKeon, an
Armory Employee of the 244th,
has been home on Shore Leave
after completing his boot training
in the U. S. Navy.

Mrs. Milton Holbritter will join
her husband, an armory employee
of the 244th AAA Bn, who is now
stationed in Japan. Bon Voyage
Mrs. Holbritter.

those enjoyed by other public em-
ployees in New York State.

The Broome County chapter of
the Civil Service Employees Asso-
ciation has petitioned the Board
of Supervisors to act on this re-
quest, The chapter's resolution
makes these points:

1, The State has long recognized
the desirability of providing ade-
quate rest for its employees in the
form of vacation amounting to
approximately one month a year;

2, other municipal units 6f
governments are providing in-
creased vacation benefits ap-

Proaching those of the State;

3. Private enterprise is finding
it economically sound to grant
longer vacation periods.

Therefore, the Broome employ-
ees say, they, “who are devoted to
maintaining @ fully efficient pub-
lic service within the County, and
after a thorough review of the
facts, urge upon the Board of
Supervisors that action be taken
to grant all salaried County em-
ployees who have had five or more
years of continuous service in-
creased vacation allowance above
the existing two weeks per annum
to three weeks per annum to be-
come effective June 1, 1962,"

55-Year Retirement Plan
A Real Opportunity

EMBERS of the State Hmployees Retirement System

have what is likely their last opportunity to gain

the benefit of the liberalized age-55 retirement plan. The
new deadline is September 30, 1952.

The additional pension benefit to the members by the
employer is 16 2/8 percent. The employee, for his part,
would have to pay additional contributions to his annuity
savings account in the future, The employer's guarantee

” eovers the entire period of the employee’s membership in
the System. The employee, however, need make only a
token contribution, and only in the future, of one percent
er one-half percent, in regard to the years of service
prior to making the switch, and only if he is under age
65. Also, the employee has the opportunity of putting his
annuity account at par with what the employer will pro-
vide, Unfortunately, this annuity opportunity has been
referred to as “arrears” or “deficiency,” both words being
wo frightening that they probably helped to keep down
the number of converts to the liberalized plan during the
eriginal application period. Additional annuity may be
purchased now, but nobody ever considered that harrow-
ing. If the so-called arrears were considered as an oppor-
tunity to buy supplementary annuity, the bugaboo would
be annihilated.

The members of the System include employees not
only of the State, but of communities that are employer-
members of the System.
haven’t seized the opportunity should do so without delay,
for the benefit of their loved ones and themselves. They
do not have to worry about the employer's greater gen-
erosity causing their own annuity accounts to remain
possibly less than sufficient to match that grant. It would
enly be a case of the employer doing more for the em-
ployee than the employee is willing or able to do for him-
sclf. What does matter is that a real opportunity is about
bo expire.

Two Groups Sue, Get
Admitted to Clerk Tests

All employee members who|"*%,

Twenty-four junior accountants
and bookkeepers have brought
two septrate court actions to re-
quire the NYC Civil Service Com-
mission to admit them to the
exam for promotion to clerk,
grades 3 and 4. The suits were be-
gun on May 15, the exam was held
on Saturday, May 24, and the)
tases were argued in the New York |
County Supreme Court on May 21
and 22. The Court ordered that
the petitioners be , conditionally
acmitted to the tests. Decision on
the merits will come later.

The junior accountants say that
they were promised opportunity
for from both the clerical and
accounting titles.

The bookkeepers point out that
they were allowed to take the last
clerk, grade 3, test.

Both groups stress that they
were promoted to thelr present
jobs from clerk titles and there-
fore they are in proper line for
| iepiaiinaa to clerk, grades 3 and

is bound by a Court of Appeals de-
cision which requires that titles!
eligible for promotion must be In
the same category as the promo- |
ton title. The petitioners answer
that they meet this requirement

as clerks and their present titles |
are of jobs clerical in nature,

T. J. McHugh

BUFPALO, May 26 — A grand
sendoff was given to “a grand

Parole Board, by about 200 State
‘and local employees on May 12.
Mr, McHugh who as one of three
Parole Board Commissioners is
assigned to the New York City

pivison of Parole for ten years.

‘He had been for three years |

linquency.

State Senator Walter J. Ma-
honey, a Republican, called Mr,
McHugh “a grand guy." Former
Common Council President Peter
J. Crotty-referred to him as “a
man’s man and a citizen's citizen.”
The Very Reverend Francis L,

Klein, an employee of
tne NYC. NYC Civil Service Commis-
sion, now a student at New York
Law School, Phd the result of
& survey of Jegal jobs, in the
spring edition of the school’s Law
Review,

Mr. Klein points out that
salaries paid to lawyers by
City are nothing to brag about,
citing Jess than $5,000 is paid in
73 percent of the 625 legal jobs.
Only 7 percent pay $7,500 or more,
the exempt jobs included. More
of these jobs should be reclassified
from the exempt Class, Mr. Klein
recommends, to improve promo-
tion opportunities, which he calls
“slow and limited.”

He points out that the Board of
Transportation, the NYC Housing
Authority, the Comptroller's office
and other agencies have their own
Jegal staffs, the total membership
of which is greater than that of
the City’s own Law Department.

The City’s Law Department has
often been described as the larg-
we single law office under one
roof.

On the score of pay, ® question
asked by former Presiding Justice
Edward Lazansky of the Appellate
Division, Second Department, is
recalled, though not in the article.
He asked what was the present

counsel job he had held nearly 40
years ago. When told it was $5,000
he said that’s what he got when

(Continued frum page 1)
Senate Kefauver’s answer: I
would favor any proposal bringing
all Federal positions with the ex-

the | ception of top policy-making asco bh

under civil service.

2. Do you feel that the present [eit
loyalty and security procedures
have helped, hindered, or been of
no effect on public service? Would
you suggest abandonment, altera-
tion, or implementation of these
Procedures?

Senator Kefauver's answer: I
feel that some loyalty and security
Procedures are necessary; how-
ever, the present ones might well
be improved.

3. What is your view with re-
spect to the proposal that all ad-
vancement in government service
should be through competitive pro-
motion examination?

Senator Kefauver’s answer: I
favor following merit systems in
advancement,

4. The Hatch Act curbing the
political activities of employees
paid through federal funds has
long been a matter of controversy.
Do you feel that the political
rights of federal employees should
in all respects be similar to the
political rights of those in private
industry? Or that the political
activities of federal employees
ought to be curbed?

Senator Kefauver’s answer: I
favor the Hatch Act.
5. Would you care to comment
on your views concerning the ques-
tion of unemployment insurance
for federal employees?
Senator Kefauver’s answer: I
favor unemployment insurance.

6. What suggestions would you
propose for dealing with the pres-
ent widespread tendency to de-
grade and smear public employees?
Senator Kefauver’s answer: I
have the feeling that much of this
sults from the lack of informa-
tion available on what the various
government bureaus and agencies
are actually doing. I would adopt
a policy of making everything that
is not absolutely connected with
the national security public in-
formation. There can be no suc-
cessful smear when the facts are
known and available, Among other
things that I think would help
would be the passage of legislation
which I have sponsored for a
question and answer period on the
floor of Congress in which heads
of bureaus and agencies would ex-
plain their policies.

7. What is your view concerning
such questionnaires as the one
proposed by Newbold Morris?

Senator Kefauver’s answer: In
general, I think that a public em-
ployee should be willing to answer
any pertinent questions concerning
his Income and activities.

for improving the qualit;

industry, as well as in line with
the cost-of-living. 1 also feel that
& promotion system in each
of the civil service departments,
based on merit, would do much to
encourage high-quality work as
well as provide an incentive for
each civil service employee.

The Total

Taking the total of Kefauver's
answers, this is what comes out of
them: He favors the competitive
civil service merit system; but he
also would retain restrictions
which have long irked public em-
ployees and which*many charge
infringe on their civil liberties—
like the Hatch Act and special
questionnaires like that proposed
by Newbold Morris. He says he
would retain the loyalty and se-
curity procedures, but “improve”
them. How? He doesn’t indicate,
His statement that “a public em-
ployee should be willing to an-
swer any pertinent questions re~
garding his income and activities”
indicates a blind-spot to what has
become one of the deep questions
of our time—whether a public em=
Ployee is to be a first class citi-
wen, With all the dignity, privacy
and rights of any other American
—or whether he is to be consider
ed a second-class citizen, hemmed,
hedged and restricted, with his
fe open to all prying eyes, his
views subjected to a thought-con-
trol process, and his activities so
immobilized that he becomes a
kind of “neuter”—a machine doing
government work.

Understands Needs of Employees

Senator Kefauver fortunately
understands the importance of
proper salary, a merit promotion
system, and unemployment insur~
ance in building and retaining a
corps of competent employees. But
his response to question 8 elicits
no “brave, new ideas” for improv-
ing the quality of civil service. Of
course, it is not to be expected
that a candidate will have all the
answers, will have done all the
thinking, on all the questions and
all the subjects put to him. There
is, however, a willingness on Ke-
fauver's part to expand all the
facets of civil service.

His attitude is much like that of
the civil service reformers: Keep
the civil service non-political;
treat public employees as a spe-
cial corps not entitled to all the
Political rights and privileges held
by other citizens; couple this with
relatively good working conditions,

How will public employees take
to Kefauver's views: About 60-40,
They will like his answers to ques-
tions 1, 5 and 8, they'll be wary
of his responses to question 2, 4,
6 and 7.

Presidential prospects about their
views on pertinent civil Service
questions and will record and
analyze their responses in future
lissues.)

Growth to Employees at

Hudson River State Hospital

POUGHKEDPSIE, May 26—The
growth of membership in the Civil

Mr, McFarland explained that
when the Association started 43
years ago, it had fewer than 400
members, all from the Albany
area. Today, he added, there are
50,025 paid members, including 9,-
€76 from the county division. He
eontinued:

Valuable Services

“This increase has been due to
the valuable services provided for
the employees both in the state
and county divisions through the
chapter conference and state level.
We were instrumental in initiat-
ing higher pensions for our re-
tired employees. In 1051 and 1952
we negotiated successfully with
the administration on the salary
question, Although we did not
achieve our goal of 7% per cent,
we were able to bring the 1% per
cent increase offered by the State
up to 6 per cent.” He gave great
Fe work to the salary committee for
work in bringing about the

aM: ‘McParland said that Henry
Galpin, salary research analyst,
‘was constantly in touch with cost-
of-living figures and, as » member
of the salary committee, was most
valuable in his capacities.
Kilpatrick Speaks

Other speakers were Dr. O. Ar-
soa Kilpatrick, Sentor director of
the hospital, and Henry Emmer,
Senior Business Officer of the hos-
ital. Dr. Kilpatrick welcomed Mr.
Farland on behalf of the hos-

ding (Cheney Memorial) will
be dedicated on June 12. Mr,

ident of Matteawan State Hospital |

the chapter, appointed Louis I.
Garrison, past president, as chair-
man of the publicity and legis-
lative committees. G. Carleton

mittee. Assisting him on this com-
mittee are Howard Chase,

pital on May 30. An appropriate

tery in Troy, N. Y.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Joseph, Beame Expected
To Head NYC Merit Award
Board; $10,000 in Prizes

NYC is getting ready to put its
merit award plan into effect. Of-
fices are being provided on the
sixth floor of the Municipal Civil
Service Commission’s suite, $10,-
000 has been appropriated for
clerical hire, another $10,000 will
be voted soon for prize money, and
Mayor Vincent R. Impellitteri is
preparing to appoint the three-
member Board. They are expected
to be Comptroller Lazarus Joseph,
Budget Director Abraham D.
Beame and a representative of the
Commission, under whose juris-
diction the Board will function.

The City is preparing to operate
the suggestion plan on a most
modern basis, frankly using
methods derived from the exper-
fence of the Federal and State
jovernments, and private industry.

fTers of full freedom to copy the
administrative set-up, the forms
and the practices of all of these
employers have been received by
the Commission.

No Awards Without Money

The City is expected to provide
both substantial monetary awards
and certificates of merit, but cer-
tificates would probably not be
issued without at least some ac-
companying money reward. Also,
the financial saving to the City
resulting from the adoption of
suggestions, is not to be stressed,
as a matter of policy, but rather

ietangible benefits. The suggestion
system as @ morale and employee
eee builder is to be the key-
nm ,

At a recent meeting of the New
York-Philadelphia Regional Con-
ference of the National Associa-
tion of Suggestion Systems the
Commission was represented by its
secretary, Dr. Prank A. Schaefer,
and his administrative assistant,
William H. Rocker. The adminis-
trative work of the merit board
will be directed by Mr. Rocker.

Won't Be All—Inclusive

The City departments proper
will be covered by the NYC sugges-
tion system, but whether any of
the independent or semi-inde-
pendent agencies will be, has not
been decided. The success of the
plan depends considerably on the
departments, since they must pass
on the validity of suggestions that
affect their own operations. Some
of the independent agencies have
not signified that they would want
to undertake this work, some of
these have thelr own suggestion
programs, and speak of the unde-
sirability of duplication. There is
no present certainty that the
Board of ‘Transportation, the
Bridge & Tunnel Authority, the
Triboro Bridge Authority, or the
NYC Housing Authority, would be

included under the City plan, al-
though they would be welcome.

years, and “experts” were saying
not much more than that. He ex-

himself as dubious over
the idea of a one-man civil serv-
fee commission. We need strong
civil service in this town, “The
bi-partisan arrangement which
now prevails is a good one—if
good men, and not stumblebums,
are appointed.”

Answerable to the People

Mr. Feinstein also warned
against the idea of a top civil
service administrator selected by
civil service examination. “This
is ® position in which the man
selected has to be responsive and
answerable to the people, more

best | than in most jobs. A man selected

by civil service may be a capable
technician, but that is no assur-
ance of our getting a dynamic
fighter for a strong merit system.
Td rather take my chances with
an appointed man who could be
removed if he didn’t work out
and who would do his policy-
making with a realization that
labor is an important force to
reckon with.
Tells of Response

His union, Mr. Feinstein added,
has hada remarkable response
from City employees since its
formation was officially announc-
ed. “The one big union idea hits
the employees right,” he stated.
“They're tired of the petty little
squabbling outfits that have been
trying to organize them up till
now.

Bscawe Raises Give
Fire Officers Fairer Break

day night, May 22, at the Hotel
Martinique,

‘The membership expressed its
“deep appreciation of the Looe
efforts of the executive board” of
the UPOA in backing up the fight

for graded percentage increases.
‘The citywide formula in the 1952-
53 budget is 12 per cent on the
first $2,000, 6 per cent on the next
$2,000, and 5 per cent on the re-
mainder of salary, with raises
limited to $500 maximum, and no
salary to be brought above $10,500
through raises.

UFA Aid Praised

The membership was told that
the UFOA and the Uniformed
Firemen's Association, which

Gratification over the NYC Ad-
ministration’s policy of granting
@raded percentage increases in

al meeting of the Uniformed Pire

felt that the efforts helped to
greatly produce the desired result,
Effect of Conferences
UFOA and UFA delegates had
conferred with City officials, and
the UFOA had conferred with Dr.
Luther B, Gulick, executive di-
rector of the Mayor's Committee
on Management Survey. That
committee received @ pay report
that incorporated the principle for
which the fire forces were battling.
The UFOA felt that in this field,
too, its arguments had not been
without effect.

The executive board of the
UPOA, which consists of repre-
sentatives elected from the vari-
ous ranks, acts as the general
salary committee, although salary
questions also arise in the legis-
lative committee, the publicity
committee and other UFOA units,
as well as in the Central Trades |<
Labor Council, AFL. They are |
cleared through the UFOA execu- |
tive board,

Battle Against Downgrading

The fight against what the
UFOA considered the downgrading
of officers, resulting from set
amounts having been added to
| pay in the past, was boistered by
the argument that not only did
the officers have to contend with
salaries too low to meet modern
conditions, but that the difference
in pay between the supervisor and
the supervised had contracted so
much that officer morale had been
sinking steadily. Now, it was con-
ceded, all that has changed. Also,
it was added, the raises do not un-
fairly benefit the officers

Battalion Chief Gilbert W.
Byrne presided at the meeting.

Deputy Chief Robert McGannon,
retired, spoke on proposed elimina-
tion of fire houses, and said that
he had heard with dismay of the
proposed reduction in fire pro-
tection,

Arthur Flynn was introduced as
a future speaker on public rela.

members of the uniformed police
force be equalized with those of
other City employees,

“The inequality now existing be-
tween the vacations of police and
other City employees is unfair
and should be corrected immedi-
ately,” the Mayor said.

The new schedule, the Mayor's
office announced, will provide a
total vacation allowance of 30

tion of the normal time off during
this period, will result in an ac-
tual vacation allowance of 25
working days,

‘The police work tours of 8 to 4,
4 to 12 and 12 to 8, with 48 hours
off after six tours. Therefore va-
cations can be so arranged that
the 48 hours off will precede the
literal 25 working days, giving the
men 27 working days off.

The Police Department had not
officially announced when the va.

LEADER presstime, but it was
stated unofficially that the plan

Appeal Notice

ALBANY, May 26 — The State
Civil Service Commission, at its
meeting last week, reduced by ten
days the Jength of time in which
@ candidate in an examination
may serve notice of intention to
appeal,

The Commission acted to re-
duce the time allowed for such
notice in accordance with its cur-
rent policy aimed at speeding the
entire appeal procedure,

The Civil Service Employees As-
sociation had urged the Commis-
sion to act on the ground that
many appeal results were not

ad | aes Sone) Oe Sey ars

months from the date of filing.
This lengthy period, the CSEA
pointed out, worked against the
candidate who was successful in
his appeal. It was explained that
often the job for which the can-
didate had been determined eli-
gible was already filled by the

time the determination was made.

New Time Schedule

Last month the Commission set
up a time schedule procedure for
handling appeals once they were
received by the Commission. This
newest action was aimed at speed-
ing the appeal procedure up to the
time of filing.

While the Commission reduced
from twenty to ten days the time
allowed a candidate to serve no-
tice of intention to appeal, it left
unchanged the twenty-day period
allowed a candidate for preparing
and filing an appeal.

Jesse B, McParland, CSEA
President, called the action a
move in the right direction.

As It Stands

As the system stands, under the
procedure adopted last week, a)
candidate now will have ten days
from the date his notice was
mailed in which to signify his in-
tent to appeal the result, He will
have 20 ars from the date his

Health Dept.
Issues New

Handbook

ALBANY, May 26—A new de-
parture in employee handbooks
was instituted this week with the
issuance-by the State Department
of Health of a publication de-
signed to inform department work-
ers.

In a foreword to the 47-page
booklet, Commissioner Herman E.
Hilleboe said it is felt that “em-
ployees will do a better job if they
know the total mission of the
department as well as its admin-
istrative structure.”

Dr. Hilleboe said the handbook
was designed to help department
personnel become successful work-
ers “who know and understand
the objectives of the team and
constantly work for their achieve-
ment,”

Others Could Follow

Livil Service Employees Associ-
ation President Jesse B., McFar-
land told The LEADER, “while I
haven't been able to do more than
skim through the book, from what
I have seen I would say that it is
an effort which could very well
be followed by other departments.
}Too many employee booklets do
| little more than tell what vacation
jand sick benefits are. The em-
| ployee needs to know more about
the aims of the department, where
its various parts are located and
what they do. He should know the
whole setup, so he will know bet-
ter exactly where he fits.”

The booklet is being distributed
to all Health employees together
with a form letter asking for sug-
gestions and criticisms.

State Insurance Fund

AT A STATE Insurance Fund,
executive board meeting held on
May 12, Certificates of over 80%
membership in the Association
were presented by President Bill
Price to the representatives of the
Underwriting, Policyholders Ser-
vice and Safety Departments, Al
Greenberg, Yola Tentone and Miss
Gold respectively, The members of

these departments can feel justly)

proud of this fine accomplishment
Chapter membership now stands
at an all-time high and continues
to grow rapidly, It is expected that
the opportunity presently being

corded Fundites to obtain Asso-
istion Group Life Insurance will
swell the chapter membership
rolls, Full measure of credit for
the tremendous chapter growth in
the few short years since it was
organized must be given to the
policies which had as their aim
the improvement of employee wel-

fare. Illustrative of special offers
made available to Fundites was a
recent cookie “buy.” The response
to this offer was enthusiastic, and
one day last week a great many|
Pundites could be seen leaving the
building with their gayly wrapped
cookie purchases.

Hailed at this meeting was
the decision by management
to permit the use of certain bulle-
tin boards for the exclusive use of
the employees. Plans were formu-
lated for the use of these bulletin

to keep the employees
aware of chapter activities and to|
encourage their participation.

Best wishes are extended to
“Army” Armstrong for a prompt
and full recoyery, To Murray|
Greenfield and Al Agran, Pundites
extend wishes for their speedy |
recovery and return to the offic

With the approach of the Dec
oration Day holiday we realize
that summer and vacations a

approaching, The chapter, how-
ever, hopes to carry on in its
netivities to promote employee
welfare. To all employees wishes

are exiended for a wonderful vi
cation time.

To the Bowlers, there is only
one news item of importance. And
that is bowling. The last bail of
the season has been thrown, the|
final pin felled, and the team posi-
tions finally ' determined. ‘The
bowlers and the League deserve
® word of praise for their fine
Sportsmanship and good citizen-
ship in their relationship with|
each other. A word of thanks i
certainly in order to the ague
managers without whose consist-|
ent attention to scores, handicaps, |
team positions, prizes, ete. the
Teague could not function as eMf-
ciently as it has. The final stand-

ings of the teams are as follows:
Team w. L. Pts,
Orphans 53% 35%, 76%
Claims Srs. 51 639 = 66
Medical 4744 42% 65%
Payroll 46% 4445 60%
Accounts 45 45 «60
Claims Sophs 44 46 50
Bafety 43% 45% 54%
Underwriters 42 48 54
Personnel 40% 49% 53%
Policyholders 3644 5344 51%

The closeness of the race is ex-
emplified in the standings. The
second and third place teams are
separated by only one half of a

int while only @ point and one
alf separate the fourth, fifth and
sixth place teams,

Individual high score honors at

the May 13 meeting went to

|Hores of Underwriting with a
team

seore of 235 high games
went to Claims Srs, with 889, Medi-
cal with 936 and Payroll with 883.

For the season, the Orphans
not only won first place but took
the Hon's share of the prizes. Its
@ sure bet that they will have a
good time at the Bowling Dinner:

Season Team High Honors for
each team are as follows:

Claims Senior, L. M, Cloonan 244
| Medical, PF. Hanson 229
Payroll, M, Flamholtz 224
| Accounts, S, Teitelbaum 264
Claims Sophs, M. Thompson 234
Safety, B. Riccardi 229
Underwriters, T. Hores 235
Policyholders, R. Heatley 243
Personnel, W. Ginsberg 232

And it's a sure bet that these
winners will have a good time at
that dinner as well. The dinner is
an outstanding annual social event
in the State Fund and bowlers and
non-bowlers alike are sure of a
wonderful time. Team captains in
all departments have tickets. See
