Ideas Wanted!
NEWARK—The Office of De-
pendency Benefits is in the
market for ideas—and is willing
to pay its employees up to $250
for suggestions which will im-
prove the operations of the of-'
fice.
And an idea which will save
large sums of money may pay
the employee up to 5 percent
of the savings to the Govern-
ment, «
On each floor of the building
is a ygestion” box, And to
make sure that all ideas are
judged anonymously, the of-
ficial blank on which the sug-
gestion is submitted carries a
number—no name, The em-
ployee who drops his plan into
the box retains a numbered stub
which will identify him if his
idea is put into effect
Committee Meets Weekly
The ODB “Ideas for Victory”
committee will meet weekly and
consider all employee sugges-
tions. Major Edward H, Hamet,
executive officer of the fiscal
division; Captain Joseph C, Wo-
towa, of the control branch;
and Carl C, Redinger, chief
clerk of the service division, are
serving on this group
If they think an idea has
merit, they submit it to the chief
of the ODB division which it
may effect. If it gets the nod
there, it goes to Brigadier Gen-
eral H, N. Gilbert, head of the
ODB. When the suggestion goes
into operation, the employee
gets paid. But, if it’s an idea
that can be applied to other
branches of the War Depart-
ment, it will be forwarded to
the War Department Board of
Civilian Awards, and there’s no
stated limit to the reward which
the employee may get
‘Types of Ideas
These are the type of ideas
the ODB is looking for
1, To conserye manpower,
time or space.
2. Eliminate unnecessary pro-
cesses, or improve existing meth-
ods.
3, Improve conditions
ing shfety and health,
4, Increase production.
5, Also, the invention of any
mechanical device which proves
of value
6, Improve morale of employ-
ees, or relations with the public.
Rewards paid at the ODB will
range from a low of $5 to the
affect-
$250 top, but there is no limit
on the number of cash awards
any single employee may re-
ceive,
“This campaign provides every
ODB employee with an oppo!
tunity to show what his or her
imagination and initiative can
contribute to the war effort,”
said General Gilbert, discussing
the new campaign for ideas
from the staff.

An ODB employee has joined
one of America's most exclu-
sive clubs. It's the “Gallon Club”

ABSENTEEISM
Clean Bill
WASHINGTON—Federal em-
ployees got a pretty clean bill of
health here this week on the
subject of absenteeism,
A special committee of the
Council of Personnel Adminis-
tvation brought in a report on
the matter. It had made a six-
month’s study. Its general con-
clusion: Most absenteeism in
Govertiment is not the fault of
the employee—but definitely the
fault of management.
At the same time, the commit-
tee offered a number of recom-
mendations for the correction of
absenteeism,
Here are the 6 most import-
ant:
More and better medical pro-
grams to safeguard the health of
employees.
Safety programs to prevent
accidents,
Better training programs for
supervisors. If the supervisors
. are on their toes, the committee
said, employees will be on their
toes, too,
Better orientation programs
for newcomers. The committee
said too many employees never
have ‘their job really explained
too them.
Elimination of unnecessary
work,
Better scheduling of work.
Again that’s a job for the super.

POSTAL
Order of
Postal Merit
The work “of the Post Office
has been a “remarkable achieve-
ment” during 1943, That's the
ist of & message from Postmas-
ter Prank C, Walker to the pos-
tal employees.
Looking back, the Postmaster
General cited the difficulties un-
der which the department had to
operate. Depleted forces, inex-
perienced personnel, gasoline and
rubber restrictions, restricted air
and rail service, and economy
measures, all coincided with an
unsurpassed volume of mail, but
the work was carried on ef-
ficiently, he feported,
Giving credit to the old-timers
on the force, who he said make
possible the high standards of
the work, he proposed the for-
mation of The Order of, Postal
Merit, Veterans of twenty years
or more in the postal establish-
ment would be eligible for mem-
bership, and would receive in-
signia and certificates of mem-
bership.
Postmaster General Walker
said that he was appointing a
committee to discuss this sugges
tion with representatives of po:
tal organizations, and if found
practicable, to start work on the
project,
Salary Front
On the salary front, Mr.
Walker said that the Post Office
had the lowest percentage of em-
ployees receiving over $3,800 a
year among all Government
wencies, “It may be that we
too low in this in this re-
spect," he added
The salary schedule of the
Post Office indicates that the
average postal worker is in the
$2,000—$2,500 class, and that a
large group fall under the $1,200
salary class.

Of Applicants
Approaching the half-way mark
of the application period for the
present series of examinations
for City jobs, the Civil Service
Commission wasn't swamped
with applicants, but they expect
the lists to be swelled by a last-
minute rush as usually happens,
There has been considerable
interest in the stenographer and
bookkeeper tests among Federal
civil service employees, who are
looking towards the future, and
feel that a place on City list of
eligibles will represent insurance
against post-war unemployment,
Many applications, the Commis-
sion reports, have been taken out
by Federal employees, and when
they are turned in, they will add
Substantially to the number of
candidates.

Plication period, which closes

You Apply for Test, Uncle Sam
Grabs You—So What’s Next?
Many candidates for civil service jabs wifh the City
find themselves wearing Uncle Sam’s uniform when the
test for which they had applied is given.
What to do about them came
up at the Commission’s meeting
last. week,
It is required by State Law
that special examinations be
given candidates for promotion
tests who are unable to appear
because of absence in the armed
forces.
But the rules of the Commis-
sion include this: “No candidate
shall be given a second or spe-
cial competitive test in connec-
tion with any examinations held,
unless it be shown to the satis-
faction of the Commission that
his failure to take such test was
due to. Compulsory attend-
ance before a court or public
body or official having the pow:
er to compel attendance. . .
“The United States Govern-
ment has the power to compel
the attendance of candidates for
military service when they are
reached in the draft,” said Miss
M. B. Upshaw, director of ex-
aminations, who thought that
this ruling would assure special
examinations for all open-com-
petitive candidates who miss a
test because they are in the
armed forces,
She asked the Commission to
clarify the matter, but they de-
cided to let it rest for a while,
and will decide the standing of
these candidates at some later
date.
At present a person who has
entered the service before the
date of an examination for
which he has filed is advised
by the Commission that he has
two alternatives,
He is provided with a form
to fill out which withdraws
his application for the test, and
gets him a refund of his fee.
He is also advised “Please do
not inquire about the return of
the fee, as some time may pass
before its refund.”
—He is advised to sit tight
and wait till after the war, in
the hope that some legislation,
will be passed setting a proceud-
ure for the treatment of candi-
dates for civil service jobs who
are on military duty.

HOW TO PREPARE TODAY Be
TO COMPETE FOR TOMORROW'S JOBS
Competition is an old story to government workers;
there will be even more of it after the war—keen com-
petition for new jobs, for promotion, perhaps for the
very job you hold now.
How well you meet the challenge of tomorrow’s compe-
tition depends on what you do today. The future offers
not fear, but rich opportunities, to men and women uni-
versity-trained in a specialized business skill.
Whether you ultimately decide to use such skill to win
promotion in Government service or to make a career
in business, you can prepare now to fill a significant
place in tomorrow's world. Choose from among the
specialized fields listed below. Z

there have been any lay-offs, or
that layoffs are pending, but at
least one administrator, Maud
M. Hamilton, has been notified
that she is about to be demoted
to case supervisor, and her at-
torney is taking the matter up
with the Civil Service Commis-
sion.
How It Happened
She charges that she is not
next in line for dismissal or re-
duction on grounds of seniority.
Here's what happened:
She took an examination for
the administrator's job. The
Civil Service Commission noti-
fied her that she had failed.
Then she appealed on the
grounds that the Commission
had made an error in marking
the paper, and she won the ap-
peal, was placed on the list,
and appointed.
But this process took about
three months, and during that
time there were other appoint-
ments made to the upper-
bracket jobs,
Now, she says that her senior-
ity should rate from the date
when she would have been ap-
pointed if the Commission
hadn't gummed up the works.
which would put her higher up
on the list, and put someone
else under the axe.
The department bigwigs are
stil maintaining a discreet si-
lence about the matter of laying
off any $3,000-a-year-phis em-
ployees.
SUBWAYS
Aliens Accepted
Aliens are now being accepted
for laboring jobs in the City Sub-
way System. The City Civil
Service Commission has given its
approval, and the hiring office
at Room 1, 250 Hudson Street is
awaiting men who are qualified
for the jobs, and who are friend-
ly aliens.
The board pays 75 cents an
hour, and the work-week is be-
tween 45 and 48 hours, depend-
ing on the division to which the |
man is assigned. About 100 men
are currently needed.
Two positions are open:
Trackman: The work is with
gangs on the tracks. Men must
be strong physically, pass a sim~-
ple mental test, know how to
handle heavy tools.
Maintainer's Helper, Group B:
(Coal Passer), to work in the
BMT and IRT powerhouses.
Same qualifications as for track-
man.
These positions are called
“temporary,” but will probably
last as long as the war.
Men must be deferred from the
draft, or over thirty-eight.
Those up to fifty-five or sixty,
who can do the hard work, will
be accepted.
Accountant Post
Goes Competitive
The City Civil Service Com-
mission last week placed the po-
sition of chief accountant on the
Board of Transportation in the
competitive class. The position
had formerly been an exempt
job which could be filled by po-
litical appointment.
LAW DEPT.
Quick Fill-Ins
Law Department needed a
couple of clerks, grade 1, to fill
in as military replacements.
‘They offered the jobs to peo-
ple on the eligible list, but those
persons couldn't see taking a
$1,200 job on a temporary basis.
Then they poosted notices
around the office asking the staff
to recommend the jobs to any-
body they knew who might be
interested.
The spots were filled in a few
days.
HEALTH
Baumgartner
Gets It
Direction of the program of
assistance to wives of service
men who need maternity aid has
been placed in the hands of Dr.
Leona Baumgartner,
This is a new addition to the
many department jobs already
held by Dr. Baumgartner. Her
present positions include: Direc-
tor, Bureau of Child Hygiene;
Day Care Agencies and Institu-
tions; Foster Homes; Maternity |
Service; Midwives; and now the
i
new job.
The Health Department will
handle the task of providing
hospital facilities and other as-
sistance to wives of men in the
service. The Federal Government
pays the bills.
Unfilled Job
The Chief Clerk post in the
Health Department, vacant since
Matthew A. Byrne was promoted |
to Secretary of the Department,
is still vacant, and will probably
remain unfilled.
The department hasn't asked
permission of the Budget Office |
to fill the spot. If it asked,
there’s a question whether
would be allowed to make a pro-
motion.
The Budget Office seems to|
feel that Mr. Byrne, with his new
title, can still perform all the
essential functions of his old po- |
sition, too,
Civil E
Restricted In
ployees
Filling Vacances
Here's a ruling of the City
Civil Service Commission which
should interest a lot of em-
ployees.
A vacancy left by a person on
military leave can't be filled by
temporarily giving the job to
a regular civil service employee
holding a lower paid position.

ssignments to Army Training and Job
This is @ continuation of General Bradley's series of articles
ealing with education in the armed forces. They will appear in
foveral succeeding issues, and cover the various opportunities avail-
ple to servicemen and women to continue their peacetime training,
arn new skills, go to college. Many questions have been received
rom readers concerning this data, General Bradley cannot under-
to answer them individually. However, those questions of
ral interest will form the basis of additional articles in this
olumn,
ah
The armed services are Interested in two things about new
nen: How will they behave in battle? and What military job will
kney do best? The first question can be answered only in combat.
‘rhe answer to the second depends on classification and assign-
iment officers, :
The Army and Navy classification systems have absorbed the
jessons of twenty years of industrial personnel work and the pro-
cedure of forty years of psychological testing. Yet classification is
still a hard job. By civilian standards, Army and Navy life is
apnormal. Civilian jobs are represented in the armed forces by
service jobs, but an efficient Army or Navy requires a maximum
‘of combat troops and the barest minimum of service troops to
keop the combat units.in operation, Furthermore, war demands
that the serviceman be classified and assigned to the position
where he will do the Army or Navy most good, not necessarily to
the one which will do him most good.
The problem is to fit the skills and talents of a man to the
needs of the armed services at a particular moment. If the focus
of warfare changes from deserts to jungles, the assignment officers
will get requisitions for different kinds of troops. When a new
division is being formed it will ordinarily draw its troops from
near at hand, One soldier may have the same needed skill as
another, but if the latter can be more quickly put into the combat
team, the former must be utilized in another way.
Suppose the inductee is a highly trained teacher, The Army
needs only a very few teachers. Between February, 1942, and
March, 1943, it was getting about six teachers per thousand in-
ductees. If the inductee was one of those, he had about one
chance in a hundred of using his teacher’s training in the Army.
During the same period, the Army was getting 27 sales clerks
per thousand inductees. It needs practically no sales clerks. It
was getting a number of lawyers and needing practically none.
But it was getting five cooks and needing 25, 14 automobile me-
chanics and needing 18, less than one airplane mechanic and
needing 30 or more. In general, any mechanical skill can be used
in the Army and Navy; there is no e of mechanical skills.
Bul the professional men (outside of medicine and dentistry) and
the so-called white collar workers may have to turn their abilities
into different chann
SOME INTE! uh FACTS
The Army has found out some interesting things about the
relation of civilian occupations to military ones, For example,
certified public accountants have become excellent mess sergeants
~—better, in many cases, than men who have been club stewards
in civilian life. Musicians have repeatedly been found to do better
at radio work in the Army than some experienced radio “ham:
When an unusual number of failures was reported by one Army
school for cooks, at which most of the students had been cooks
in civilian life, it was found that these men had been working
48 cooks only because they could not get other jobs they preferred.
Personnel is never static. A man who promises to be an
txcellent mechanic or machine gunner when he enters the service
may within a few months develop aptitudes that make him a
Potential anti-aircraft gunner, tank commander, or officer can-
didate, Therefore, classification must be a continuous process
during the entire period of an enlisted man’s active service.
Proper classification will help to use the inductee's technical
skills where they are most needed, send him to the right special
Schools, minimize the number of his transfers. from regiment to

Popular Men
Two popular men have just
retired from the Borough Presi-
dent of Manhattan's Office
with honors tendered by their
co-workers, Last Thursday, a
luncheon was held for Larry
McNally, ex-chief clerk of the
Permit Division
Henry Muiler, retiring dis-
patcher at the Borough asphalt
plant, will be feted by his co-
workers at a dinner at Caruso’

President Nathan, have been

What Goes Here?
Inspectors in the Department
of Water Supply, Gas and Elec-
tricity, like so many other City
employees, think they should be
earning more money.
So, they took up the matter
with the department officials
and reported that they expect
some good news soon,
But the Budget Bureau says
the department hasn't made
any request to get more money
for them, and the “please’’ to
the Budget Office is the first
step before paychecks can get
any bigger,
FIRE
Decision Due
For the 3-A's
The case of the 3-A fireman
candidates who were passed over
for appointment will finally be
decided once and for all within
the next few weeks
David Savage, attorney for the
men, who brought action against
the City and won their right to
the jobs, only to have the City
appeal, reports that the hearing
will come up in the Court of
Appeals during the week of
October 4th.
This is the highest court of
the State, and the decision will
settle the question of whether or
not these men get their appoint-
ments with seniority from the
time when they were skipped
ovef, And it will set a precedent
for other men who haye been
refused City jobs because they
were in 3-A, 2-B, or draft classi-
fications other than 1-A,
Case of Chiefs
Comes Up Again
The Civil Service Reform As-
sociation is meeting the La-
Guardia Administration in court
again this week.
The fight is over the
recent appointment of 15 deputy
chiefs in the Fire Department.
The Reform Association con-
tends that there were only five
vacancies at the time the
15 promotions were made, and
the Budget Director and the
Fire Commissioner had no pow-
er to appoint an extra ten of-
ficers,
H. Eliot Kaplan, of the Asso-
ciation, is presenting its side
of the situation before Judge
Ferdinand Pecora of the Su-
preme Court.
But it’s more than just a dis-
pute between these two parties.
One group of Battalion Chiefs
in the department figured that
these promotions ruined their
chances of having a crack at a
promotional examination for the
next higher job and hired Albert
De Roode to protect their in-
terests, They feel that it's
questionable whether the ap-
pointments were made before
the expiration of the eligible
list for the promotion, and are
challenging the whole 15 promo-
tions, as well as the validity of
the extra ten,
Seymour B. Qual, assistant
corporation counsel, is rep-
resenting the City, and the
men who got the appointments
have retained George C. Lake

The position of Senior Hospi-

week,
‘The new position in the Hos-
pitals Department pays from
$1,200 to $1,440 a year without!

All hospital helpers who are

Better Pay
For several months, the Hos-
pitals Department of New York
City has been trying to obtain
pay raises for various groups
of its employees in order to
slow down the shift to better-
paid outside positions,
After public hearings held last
week, the City Civil Service
Commission approved new salary
schedules in various categories
Here is the new list of maximum

We Wonder
Ramspeck Committee was going to accomplish by
Wi rsne what happened to all the good work the
probing Federal personnel policies?
Wonder what happened to the fine ambition of the
Federal Civil Service Commission to utilize the services
of handicapped?
Wonder why the excellent War Department plan
to pay employees for ideas isn’t extended?
COMMITTEE FOLDING?
Well, we can tell you a little about the Ramspeck
Committee.
Dillard Lassiter, its chief examiner, says
he’s resigning to take the job of War Manpower Director
for Atlanta, Ga.
In view of its picayune accomplish-
ments, some members of the committee feel it should be
discontinued altogether.
Yet,
the committee started
with brave resolves, asked employees to contribute in-
stances of malfeasance or inefficiency in their offices—
and everybody thought it would really contribute heavily
to better Government work. But it has fizzled badly.
Its future is up in the air.
A PLAN THAT ISN'T WORKING
The plan of the Federal Commission to use the serv-
ices of the handicapped was widely—and properly—
haled.
That was a year ago.
since on the subject.
Fine surveys were made and committees set up.
Not a pipsqueak has come out
Meanwhile the manpower situation
tightens, and the services of the handicapped, which
ion admitted could be used in wide areas
, are left to lie fallow. Get going on this
again, Commissioners Mitchell, McMillin, and Flemming!
PAYMENT FOR IDEAS
On page 2 of this issue, you'll find the story of the
way Office of Dependency Benefits (a War Department
unit) pays its employees handsomely for ideas.

and again.

tronage note: Governor Dewey
had 80 unfilled jobs in an up-
state county, so he called in
the GOP leader and turned the
windfall over to him. But the
Republican politico, who ordi-
narily could fill any number of
jobs, could only fill 3 of the
posts this year, in view of the
manpower shortage. he
called in the Democratic leader
and said, in effect: “Look, I
can't fill these jobs. You may
as well have them.” ,fhe Demo-
erat leader couldn't fill ‘em
either, so finally they had to
advertise in the help wanted
columns of the newspapers
Look for lots more political
scandal headlines in the papers.
Reason: Upstate, the Demo-
crats have been endorsing Re-
publican candidates for local of-
fice. Knowing they can't win
anyway, they figure they can
reduce Republican activity and
the vote by endorsing GOP men.

THE FASCINATING THING
about Kenneth Mytinger’s job is
that he’s supposed to know
everything. Not just in pleasant
Information Please fashion, but
in a way that has to be used
every day in making decisions
that have life-and-death mean-
ings to business. He must know
about cosmetic cases and air-
conditioning units and the Jamp
industry and machinery and
newspapers. If it’s a manufac-
tured product, it’s in Kenneth
Mytinger’s sphere. Moreover, he
has to keep constantly on tap
about the available quantities
and the uses of hundreds of dif-
ferent materials—metals, plas-
tics, woods, resins, paper, cloth,
synthetics. It’s more than just
knowing what the “critical” ma-
terials are. ‘The critical material
of today may become relatively
easy to obtain tomorrow, And
the product that’s keeping an
industry going today may have
to be switched over to war pro-
duction tomorrow.
Mytinger’s whole job is mak-
ing decisions about these things.
Manufacturers come to him with
really tough problems. As Dis-
trict Appeals Chief of the War
Production Board, he must be
able to iron out the problems as
painlessly as possible, yet in
such a way as to aid the war
effort.
In his office in the Empire
State Building, overlooking the
expanse of the East River, My-
tinger sits with a tiny staff—3
men and 3 girls—and_ handles
the whole huge mass of appeals
that come from the New York
area.
Went Through It
He's particularly qualified for
the work, since he went through
the loss of his own business be-
fore taking on Government em.
ployment. Listen to him tell
“I was in the air-conditioning
industry, and because of priori-
ties I was forced out of busi-
ness, Well, I went to Washing-
ton for relief. And I went so
often that they finally threw
up their hands and said: ‘You've
been crying, on our shoulder
long enough. How'd you like to
have somebody cry on your
shoulder for a change?’ So I
took a job as appeals specialis'
That was 18 months ago.
Since then, Mytinger has risen
through the post of senior ap-
peals specialist to his present
position.
It has gotten so that he can
usually size up a business man’s
situation in a first interview.
For example, a manufacturer is
forbidden to produce about
1,000 items in iron alone. And
moreover, he can’t even use sub-
stitutes! An instance is the case
of bedsprings. You're not per-
mitted to manufacture bed-
springs of iron. So the ingeni-
ous manufacturers began to
manufacture them of wood. But,
said the WPB, “wood is getting
too scarce to use for such pur-
poses, You can’t use wood,
either.”
But it isn't always in that
direction. Very often, a busi-
ness man speaking to Mytinger
will learn to his surpise that the
situation is easier than he
thought. Thus, only very re-
cently, your bedspring manufac-
turer has again received permis-
sion to work with wood.
In many cases, a quota system
has been set up, whereby a
manufacturer gets a percentage
of the material quantities he
‘used in a previous year, usually
1941, That's true of gold, sil-
ver, paper.
Lots of companies try to “get
away” with evading the “spot
orders” of the WPB. But the
WPB knows what's going on,
He's Efficient
Mytinger’s New York office is
considered a model of its kind
by Washington headquarters.
And Mytinger himself got an
E for efficiency. “Like a report
card,” he beams.
His pet hates are procedures
and red tape. “Do what has to
be done, and think about the
procedures afterward,” that's
Mytinger’s approach,
Mytinger is a business man
who came up with such jobs as
having charge of labor construc-
tion for the International Nickel
Company, with whom he stayed
for 15 years. He's been in the
banking investment business.
And he was a prime mover in
the development of the freight
trailer.
Kenneth Mytinger was born
in Red Bank, N. J., but he's
a Brooklyn boy. That's where
he got his education. And that’s
what he calis home.

Social Securit
Sirs: I saw in your last week's
edition an article on Social Se-
curity and in regard to same,
I for one, can say that if they
pass this, it would be one of
the best rulings that could hap-
pen to Federal Employees, es-
pecially those that were hired
for the duration.
In the first place, I believe it
is ridiculous when they deduct
5% off your salary every week,
and when you are separated
about 15% is deducted for
holding your money. If you
deposit this same amount in a
Bank you draw interest.
_ I would also like to see passed,
a ruling on unemployment in-
surance the same as private in-
dustry, where an employee has
some protection if he or she
loses their job.
T hope you agree with me,
H, ROSS.
Doctor Makes It Clear
Sirs: You announc. that the
per session doctors in the Health
Department will get an increase
of 50c a day in the new budget.
let us examine what that
means, Those men, whose work
is daily and who put in 350 ses-
sions per year, will reach the
maximum of $1,799 sooner than
they did formerly when paid a
flat $5.00. The result is they
will be compelled to stay at
home more often than they have
been doing.
Of course, to be paid more
for less work is in effect an in-
crease in remuneration, but it
strikes me that these are “not
the times to take it out on the
public which will get a further
curtailment in services.
S. B. ROSS, M.D."
The article “Rights and
Privileges of U. S. Employees
in the Armed Forces,” which
began last week and was
scheduled to be continued in
this issue, is being held over
for one additional week. See

POLICE CALLS
Tours in the (7th
This week we continue with
- our letters which are still com-
ing in in large numbers. The
one that foilows is a simple
complaint from a cop in the
17th Precinct, and it’s about a
minor difficulty that needn't
happen:
Sirs: Men of the 17th Pre-
cinct wait patiently for each
new “Police Calls” in your Civil
Service LEADER. This is our
grievance, Since the Harlem
trouble, our men instead of do-
ing a later tour, find themselves
assigned to a 4 a.m. to 12 noon,
then go out the following tour
and do a regular late tour.
In heaven's name, one finds
himself doing two tours in one-
half a night and half a day.
Men doing a 4 p.m. to 12 mid-
night shift or tour instead re-
port an 8 p.m. to 4 a.m.
Why can't we do a regular
tour instead like our regular
shift? Some of our men live
as far distant as Staten Island,
so you can have an idea -how
much time they must travel.
Our physical system is bad
enough without this additional
amount being inflicted.
Please publish this in your
paper. We have called it to
the attention of our delegate
but no good. Keep up your
good work.
MEMBER 17TH PCT.
Sure we'll publish this letter,
and glad to do it. This is a
legitimate grievance, and there
doesn’t seem to be any reason
why the 17th Precinct should
operate differently. A proper
system of tours should be put
into effect immediately.—Editor.
More About Harlem
And here's another letter in
the same vein, from the point
of the Harlem fracas:
“To the Editor: Attorney Gen-
eral Biddle’s Report on Race
Riots of August 11th stated, in
Part:
“The Detroit Police Depart-
ment is, in spite of the increase
in population, actually 280 men
short of the budget allotment.’
How true is this of New York
City. What did the shortage
have to do with our Harlem
Riot?
“‘Many of the present police-
mén are not well-trained be-
cause of the number of men who
have been drafted and whose
Places are filled with over-age,
dissatisfied, and inadequate per-
sonnel,’ What reason, if any at
all, does the inadequate person-
nel furnish for the confusion
prevailing amongst the ranking
superiors during the Harlem
Riot?
“Crime is greatly on the in-
crease among juvenile delin-
quents; the racial problem is
tense; overcrowding and shifts
in population make the police
problems far more difficult than
heretofore.’ Would the 37 Po-
lice Lieutenant vacancies, if they
were restored to the budget and
the list promulgated, plus the
Placing of a full-fledged Captain
in charge of each Juvenile Aid
Unit and in charge of each De-
tective District reduce the above
problems? Do you think the
Placing of full-fledged Captains
in every Division would help to
reduce the above conditions?
And don't you think that if all
the superior officers wishing to
retire now in the New York
City P.D. were permitted to do
so, and the necessary replace-
ments made quickly, the entire
crime situation quoted by Mr.
Biddle would change in this
city?
“Of course the above would
create only about 100 more va-
cancies in the patrolman rank.
And what is 100 more when we
have always had, for the past
8 years, close to 1,000 patrol-
man vacancies.”
PROMOTION ELIGIBLE,
Wrong Men In Charge?
Here's a letter with a different
kind of beef. It doesn't come
from within the department,
however,
Brooklyn, N. Y.,
September 12, 1943.
I noticed in, the September
7th issue of The LEADER under
the heading “Police Calls” an
article entitled “Favoring the
Failures.” This article, unusual
as it was, gives the average per-
son something to think about. I
have known many men in the
Police Department who in the
absence of the Captain were in
charge of the precinct and it
was my opinion that they had
passed a qualifying examination
or else they would not be se-
lected to fill in for the Captain.
After reading this article and
pondering over it for a while I
am convinced that there must
be some truth to it because the
men that I referred to are still
Lieutenants, and from what in-
formation I could get they never
passed any examination for
Captain although I have been
informed that one in particular
competed in at least three of
them but failed to pass. Today
this man boasts of thirty-eight
years of service in the Police
Department and is placed in
charge of a precinct in the ab-
sence-of the Captain. Why is it
that a Captain recommends to
an Inspector who shall be desig-
nated to assume charge of his
precinct in his absence? This
seems to be a bad practice and
I don’t believe the Mayor of this
city knows that failures are
chosen to fill vacancies while
those who have proven their
ability are ignored. It seems to
me as am outsider that some
sort of a rule could be issued
to prevent such practices, and
the best man selected to fill
the vacancies wherever they may
exist. Surely’the inhabitants of
the City of New York would pre-
fer a man who has proven his
ability to take charge to one
who has failed to do so, Al-
though the heads of the present
City Administration claim that
the City is being run more
efficiently than under any of
the past administrations a con-
dition of this kind makes one
a little bit skeptical of such
claims.
I think your paper is render-
ing a great service to the em-
ployees of this City and to the
citizens as a whole by exposing
such practices.
SUBSCRIBER.
Well, what do you men think
of the interesting question raised
in this letter? If a man fails
an examination, should that bar
him from holding a higher spot
in an “acting” capacity? Let's
have some opinions.—Editor.
Smallest Class
At the Academy
The graduation of a class of
305 probationary patrolmen
from the Police Academy last
week, leaves the department still
about 1,200 men short of its
quota for the uniformed force.
And the next class at the
Police Academy is expected to
be one of the smallest ever
turned out because of the dif-
ficulty of finding draft-free men
within the age limits and physic-
ally acceptable to the Depart-
ment.
Service ysevolvers were the
prizes awarded to the graduat-
ing “rookies.”
Top award, the Bloomingdale
Trophy, for the highest general
average in all subjects went to
James A. Guishard, who also
won the Masback award for the
highest score in slow time and
repeat revolver shooting during
training.
The Mayor's Trophy, for the
second highest general average
in all subjects. was taken by
Earl J. Campazzi, and the Po-
lice Commissioner's Trophy for
third highest average was
awarded to Irving J. Klein.
Memo to Pat Harnedy
Still no answer to that letter
on why no vote for the men in
the PBA?
Don’t you like the members,
Pat? Don't you think they
deserve an explanation? Or do
you think that just snubbing
them is the easiest way out—
that the whole’ thing will die
in time?
Chance for
Police Clerks
Those men who filed applica-
tion at Police Department head-
quarters for jobs as civilian
cierks, will be hired in the
next week or two.
The budget office has just
given its approval to taking on
the men at $1,500 a year for
the duration, but the B.O. had
its own idea about how many
were needed.
Police Department wanted to
hire 200 right now, and prob-
ably more in the future.
‘The men who have to OK the
deal said, “Only 150 now.” Fu-
ture chances for men who want
these jobs and aren't hired in
the first batch are vague.
Trouble?
Reports that a supervisor had
been suspended on serious
charges made by employees
under his supervision, were softly
denied by Charles J. Reichert,
manager of Veterans Adminis-
tration’s New York office at 346
Broadway.
Here’s what happened as Mr.
Reichert told me the other day
“Grace Sollaway, a typist, CAF2,
resigned. She came into this
office with a story. She named
names and stated facts, and the
employees involved were invited
to come into the -ffice and tell
their stories.
“There seemed to be enough
strength in the allegations made
to warrant further investiga-
tion,” Mr. Reichert added, “and
the matter is being looked into
by officials of this agency.
“Meanwhile we felt it better
that Mr. Inhat (George Inhat
is the supervisor involved)
should not stay at his post until
the matter is cleared up. He is
off now on annual leave.”
Mr. Reichert was unwilling to
discuss allegations made against
the supervisor, lest he be ac-
cused of pre-judging the case,
but said that the statements of
the employees were being typed
up and that as soon as he had
a chance to examine all sides
of the situation he would de-
cide the matter.
Superstitious ?
This week, the leading sub-
ject of talk around 346 Broad-
Way is che Thirteenth Floor. It's
a nice airy floor, with good ven-
tilation and plenty of light
From the 13th Floor you can
get a beautiful view of the
downtown New York. But he
13h Floor is very, very empty,
and is used for nothing at all.
On the twelve lower floors,
these days, people are sitting in
each other's laps and getting in
one another's hair. There are
about 500 extra workers who
have been taken on for three or
four months and the place is
certainly crowded.
Down in the stockrooms is
enough furniture to fit out the
top floor and relieve some of
the congestion, and the poor
crowded Vets wonder why it isn't
being done. . . . Maybe somebody
on the 4th Floor is superstitious!
NAVY YARD GAZETTE |
The New Annual Leave
Regulations
At long last Navy Yard work-
ers have been apprised of that
long talked-of “liberalized leaye
policy”. However, so far as we
can see, this policy is liberal only
insofar as annual vacations are
concerned and does not really
allow the employee more time
off. As a matter of fact, in
many instances, employees are
finding that it provides less time
for fewer contingencies. For
example: formerly, marriage was
considered an emergency and ac-
credited with two weeks leave in
addition to all leave previously
granted, provided the employee
could be spared. Under present
regulations, leave for marriage is
granted only as a part of the
regular twelve-day annual leave
allowance.
‘The new leave policy however,
is more systematic and, when
carried out properly, should be
beneficial to everybody, It pro-
vides:
1, Vacation, Civilian employ-
ees are permitted to take an an-
nual vacation not exceeding
twelve working days (such vaca-
tion can't commence on Satur-
days), This may be broken up,
as heretofore, for purposes of
rest and recuperation, as well as
vacation,
2. Personal Business. In ad-
dition to the twelve days, time is
allowed, at the rate of one half
day per month, for personal
business such as shopping, bank-
ing, legal business, doctor or
dentist, on days other than
Saturday. Leave for personal
business is not cumulative. For
example, if the half-day is not
taken one month, it will not
make a whole day available the
next month.
3. Emergenciés. In addition
to the foregoing leave, the em-
ployee is entitled to leave for
such emergencies as ceath or
sickness in the family, and un-
scheduled layoffs.
The Employee's View-point
In the good old days of leave
at the rate of one half day per
week, small groups of employees
whose work was closely inter-
dependent, had informal agree-
ments among themselves as to
what days or half-days they
would take for leave purposes.
The idea worked out well and
there was no noticeable reduc-
tion of efficiency in the group as
a whole, A policy based upon
this idea might very well elimi-
nate a great deal of red tape and
would certainly go a long way
toward improvement of morale.
Problems under the new leave
Policy are arising thick and fast.
For example, one employee who
had already taken his six days
vacation, desired to claim six ad-
ditional days for vacation.
However, the official decision is
that this employee is entitled to
only two more days and not six
because he had already taken
four additional days, under the
old policy, for personal business.
Those Cumbersome
Government Checks
The Federal Reserve Bank in
New York complains that Navy
Yard employees who fold or
mutilate thei paychecks are giv-
ing them many a headache be-
cause these mutilated checks
jam their machines. The only
safe place for such a check is
the employee's wallet. Thi of
necessity, causes the check to
become folded. The check,
usually being at least one
quarter of an inch wider than
the wallet, is naturally subject
to further mutilation. In order
to prevent these mutilations, it
would seem only logical that
checks be made either half the
size or somewhat narrower and
of a paper which is more pli-
able. Possibly another solution
would be to hand out checks at
such time as the employees may
be immediately able to cash
them,

NEW YORK, DEPARTMENT
hereby certity that a certificate

that i appears therefrom that
Board of Estimate, and th
Sanitation
Sanitation averages about 30
retirements monthly, and within
a few weeks after applications
are made, the investigations are
completed and the pension pay-
ments begin, A number of the
employees who were planning to
retire last summer, waited until
the July 1 pay raises came
through to boost their average a
bit, then filed their papers.
Since January 1, 1943, there
have been 247 retirements from
Sanitation.
Police Department
The Police Department only
allows the retirement of 40
members of the force each
month, That applies to regular
retirements. However, there is
no limit on the number of dis-
ability and accident disability
retirements. BUT, there are now
1,332 applications for retire-
ment on file at the offices of
the Police Pension Fund.
This means that a man reach-
ing retirement age in the Police
Department today, can expect
a wait of at least three years
before he can leave the job and
get his pension,
Fire Department
The Fire Depariment also has
a quota for monthly retirements.
Their figure has been set at 25,
but the backlog of retirements
waiting to be acted on is smaller
than among the police. The
fireman who files now, can ex-
pect action on his papers in
about ten months,

ie whole thing is usually ac-
complished within a few weeks.
But the Police and Fire Departments have their own
pension systems, and the Department of Sanitation has
the old Street Cleaning Retirement Fund, to which the
older employees of that department belong.
And here’s what happens in these departments:
Retirements Are Different WATERSUPPLY
In Police, Fire, Sanitation
In some City departments, retiring after you reach
the retirement age, and have enough service in, isn't just
as simple as thal. Employees who are members of the
New York City Employees Retirement System, which
cover most City departments, have little trouble.
file their application for retirement, either directly with
the Retirement System Office, or through their depart-
ment. Then the list is printed and presented to the
Layoffs
Suffering from priority
trouble, the Board of Water
Supply has had to cut down its
activities to such an extent that
seventy members of its engi-
neering staff are being laid off.
Most of these men were work-
ing on upstate projects of the
Board, and the completion of
some sections of the water sup-
ply system, and rulings of the
War Production Board which
made it impossible to carry on
planned expansion left the en-
gineering employees with no
work.
Layoffs will be in order of
last-come; first go, the Board
says, following civil service pro-
cedure for such cases,

No Wage Cuts in
Mental Hygiene
Acting with unusual speed to
correct a situation which might
have fast grown disastrous, the
State administration late last
week said definitely that no
omployee would receive a cut in|
alary as a result of the new/
alary classification schedules |
which go into effect October 1
That such a cut was in prospect
for many groups of employees
was brought to the attention of
the Governor by Harold Fisher,
president of the Association of
State Civil Service Employees.
Meeting last Thursday with
Charles Breitel, Counsel to the
Governor, Mr. Fisher pointed
out that the new schedule .pen-
alized older groups of employees, |
particularly those in the Mental |
Hygiene Department who were
earning $1,732 or over under the
special increment law which had
been put into effect in lieu of
the deferred Feld-Hamilton pay-
ments. Mr. Fisher's meeting
with Breitel came on the day
after delegates of the ASCSE
had met in Albany and analyzed
the situation. Present at the
meeting with Breitel was John
T. DeGraff, counsel to the
ASCSE. The Governor's office
issued the following reassuring
statement on Saturday:
Governor's Statement
“The establishment of salary
standardization and mainte-
nance for employees in mental
hygiene institutions will benefit
a majority of such employees by
increased pay schedules. Be-
cause of some technical provi-
of
sions in temporary laws affect- |
ing these institutions, a small
number of such employees of |
long service might find the cash |
compensation received by them |
reduced in aggregate amount as
compared with the past two |
years. Accordingly, the adminis-
tration has adopted measures
which will preclude any such |
cash reduction. Not one em-
ployee in the Department of
|
Mental Hygiene will receive less
cash compensation beginning
October 1 than he has been|
receiving on September 30."
Mr. DeGraff explained that
through a process of appeals, the
employees would probably not |
have suffered in the long run.
But appeals take time, and
meanwhile the employees would |
have suffered a reduction in pay

‘Day Off If You Sell $100
In War Bonds
: LaGuardia
Any City employee will get a day off for selling one-hundred dol-
lars in war bonds during the Third War Loan Drive,
That's the latest ruling from the Mayor's office, and -he sent a
memo around to all department heads late
grant the time off.

Even essential employees like police and firemen will be able to
get a day of relax
ition in return for convincing someone else to lend
Uncle Sam $100 or more, and the important thing is to get bonds
sold, If the City employee sells himself that amount of bonds he's
entitled to the time too.
And says Lester Stone of the Mayor's staff, it an employee
wants to spend a day selling bonds, he should get that day off.
The day off is promised free of any catches.
It won't be de-
ducted from vacation time or sick leave; it's one of the City’s war
contributions,
Just go to your department personnel officer, and he has the

The Government will find

at between $5 and $6 per week
For a 48 hour week, the pay
is $1,560 a year. Two shifts are
worked, 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m,, and
3:50 p.m, to 12
a.m.
Tabulating, listing, card
punch, sorting and other ma-
chine operations will be taught
applicants.
Men must be fairly certain of
draft deferment to qualify for
these jobs, and no persons now
in essential occupations can be
taken on.
Applications are being accept-
ed by Mrs, D. L, Strock, at the
United States Employment Serv-
ice, 10 East 40th Street, 12th
Floor. She has the authority to
hire on the spot, and the Gov-
ernment wants these jobs filled
in a hurry.
THE DRAFT
More Deferments?
WASHINGTON—O fficials
here think they see a good
chance that the number of Gov-
ernment draft deferments will
be expanded once Selective Serv-
ice begins to call pre-Pearl Har-
bor fathers.
So far, that's completely un-
Official. And because of the
many uncertainties in the whole
draft situation, Federal employ-
ees should not bank on it too
strongly
Definitely, however
is in the wind:
something
| Federal neies, especially
Justice Department, have
complained vigorously to the
President in recent weeks that
they are being “wrecked” by the
drafting of vital workers.
)—One wide juoted story here
this week had it that Mr
Roosevelt had assigned Justice
Samuel I, Rosenman, his new
White House “counsel,” to study
the whole deferment problem as
it affects Federap offices.
3-10 this is true (and there is
no confirmation), it could
mean only that the White
is thinking about a more liberat
policy.
4.—Finally—and most import.
ant—it is known definitely
that Selective Service has as-
signed a special committee of its
top officials to try to work out
& formula for the granting of
mote liberal deferments in essen-
tial industries,
Government essential
Now Government, all of it, is
@n essential industry
At the moment, however, it
doesn't do you much good to be
™ an essential industry unless
you happen to haye an “essential
job" or a “critical job.”
In Government, it's even
tougher than that: In addition
to being on the “essential” list
or the “critical” list, you also
have to be on Government's
“key job" list
This has meant, in practice
that many really vital emloyees
have found it impossible to get
deferments. For example, per-
sonnel officers ordinarily are not
considerable deferrable. Neither
are budget officers, classif.cation
experts, auditors, and many,
many others whose work in Gov-
ernment (while little publicized)
is often extremely important.
“Key List” Expansion
If Selective Service decides to
expand deferments in essential
industry generally by expanding
its “essential” list, Government
is expected to follow suit by ex-
panding its “key” Job list.
How far such an expansion
might go is anybody's guess.
JOBS
Cradle Robbing
Is Out!
“We're not robbing the cradle,”
said Postmaster Goldman's of-
fice. He was referring to a re-
port that the Post Office is hir-
ing boys under sixteen for extra
york during rush season pro-
duced by the early flood of
Christmas -packages for service
men and women overseas.
The P. O, prefers men over 18
for temporary jobs as clerks,
chauffeurs and labors in the
Post Office. They'll take boys
over 16 who have their working
papers. They aren't looking for
part-time workers, and can't
take anyone now in an essential
Job,
Aplicants are invited to call at
Room 4500, N. Y. Post Office,

RATING
You Have 50-50
Chance to Win
WASHINGTON—Why not ap-
peal your efficiency rating?
That is, of course, if you don't
like it,
Figures released this week
show that the average Govern-
ment employee who does appeal
has slightly better than a 50-50
chance of winning his case,
Specifically, out of 378 cases
heard by appeal boards here
since April 1, 187 have resulted
in higher ratings, six in lower
ratings, and 175 in no change.
In other words, if you're
honestly dissatisfied with your
rating, it would appear that
you've got an awfully good
chance of wininng an
and very little chance that you'll
take @ real setback.
They're Impotrant
Now the importance of effi-
ciency ratings is this: They de-
termine your chances of pro-
motion under the Mead-Rams-
peck law, which grants a one-
step raise every 18 months to
highly-rated lower-bracket em-
ployees; and a one-step raise
every 30 months to highly-rated
upper-bracket employees.
Up until this year, efficiency
rating appeals generally were
common only in Washington,
Now, however, they have been
extended to the field, although
most cases are handled here—
by correspondence.
If you want to appeal, see
your personnal office. It should
have complete information.
