Overtime
Also Hopes for Larger Pay Increagg
WASHINGTON. — Sen. James
Mead (D. Y.), long-time
friend of Federal employees, says
he intends to sponsor two highly-
important changes in Government
pay legislation when the stop-
gap pay adjustment bill expires
April 30.
First—he will endeavor to get
a full-time-and-one-half for over-
time work, instead of the time-
and-one-quarter previded in the
stop-gap bill.
fecond—he
will endeavor to
have the stop-gap bill revised to
provide a flat 20 per cent raise
(instend of the present 10 per
cent) for employees not eligible
for overtime pay.
‘ge Increase
If Sen. Mead is successful in
putting through his proposal for
an “honest” time-and-one-half for
overtime, it will mean an increase
of approximately eight per cent
in the paycheck of the employee
who works 48 hours per week. At
present, the overtime pay of these
employees amounts to 21.6 per
cent of their salary. With a full
time-and-one-half for overtime, it
would amount to 30 per cent,
At present, Federal employees
work 260 days per year, But, for
overtime pay purposes, their daily
pay rate is calculated just as if
they actually worked 360 days.
However, if the daily rate were
changed to 1/260th of the annual
rate, as Senator Mead proposes,
then overtime pay would amount
to a full time-and-one-half.
In February
Sen. Mead expects to incorpor-
ate his proposals into a proposed
bill which will go to Congress
early in February, ‘The,

OnUnmeritedPromotions
WASHINCTON, — From now

to find it a lot harder to pick off
unmerited, fat promotion
The Civil Service Commission
has acted to put a firm brake
on such advancements. It has is-
sued a new set of regulations,
designed to make sure that major_
promotions go only to employees
who really merit them.
1 In order to be eligible for
« a promotion carrying an in-
crease of $300 or more in pay,
an employee must have served at
least six months in his present
job or one of equivalent grade in
the Federal service.
In order to be eligible for

least a year.

Draft Rating Be?
matter of 3-B draft classifica-
tions for its employees has been
both uncertain and confused.
In part, the situation is due
to War Manpower Commission
and its now-subordinate Selec-
tive Service System.
In part, it is due to White
House officials.
In part, it is due to local draft
officials, which have interpreted
3-B rulngs with a complete lack
of uniformity.
And in part, it is dua to indi-
vidual Government agencies.
May Be Called Early
The net results is a situation
in which thousands of married
men face the possibility of
being called to military duty
well before their scheduled time.
Moreover, although efforts to
clear up the muddle now under
way, they are proceeding very
slowly.
Last week, The Civil Service
LEADER pointed out that Gov-
ernment employees could be en-
titled to 3-B draft rating. It can
now be revealed that the source
of the article was a member of
War Manpower Commission, the
body which made up the list of 35
“essential activities” groups on
which 3-B classifications are
based. It can also be revealed
that this official saw the article
after publicatiom and expressed
himself as in thorough agreement
with it, [A number of local draft
boards still seem confused.—Ed.]
He -takes the stand that all may-
ried men (or men with collateral
dependents) ‘n Government are
entitled to be placed in 3-B.
Selective Service View
A slightly different view, how-
ever, is taken by officials in the
Selective Service national head-
quarters office here. They say
that a man with dependents is en-
his particular grade,
Two Grade Promotions
:-In practical. operation, these
rules mean that the agencies
must seek prior approval before
they grant two-grade promo-
tions to newcomer employees be-
low the $2,000 level in the CAF
service. And prior approval be-
fore they grant even a one-grade
promotion to newcomers above
the $2,000 level.
‘The Commission also ruled that
the same regulations will apply
to transfers between agencies.
titled to 3-B classification if he
works in an essential, war-sup-
porting unit of Government.
They add, however, that certain
units certainly cannot be consid-
ered wer-supporting. For one ex-
ample, they cite WPA, The im-
plication 1s thet the number of
non-essential unfts is, in their
opinion, fairly small.
Here's the Crux
However, both the War Man-
official and Selective Service
headquarters agree on one thing’
IF A GOVERNMENT UNIT IS
ESSENTIAL, THEN EVERY
MAN WITH DEPENDENTS IN
THAT UNIT IS ENTITLED TO
BE PLACED IN 3-B.
The difficulty is that local draft
boards do not agree on what units
are essential. Moreover, many of
them have persisted in deciding
on 3B classifications much as
they decide on 2-A or “essential
man” deferments,
And finally, White House advis-
ers have contributed their share
to the confusion. Agencies which
have taken their questions to the
President's advisors have been
told it would be ‘proper’ to re-
quest 3-B classification for men
(with dependents) whose jobs fall
in the long list of so-called critical
occupations that ordinarily is
used as a basis for 2-B defer-
ments. White House officials
have done nothing to prevent re-
quests for 3-B classifications out-
side that category, However, the
practical effect of their advice
has been to cause the agencies
not to request 3-B classifications
for such employees.
Emphatically, it can be stated
that the view of White House
officials, as expressed to the
agencies informally by the Presi-
dent's advisors, is not in harmony
with the Selective Service view, _
Moreover, it can be revealed
that these officials have called on
Selective Service to clarify the en-
tire situation just as soon as pos-
sible.
Here's the Source
On July 14, 1942, Selective Serv-
fce released a list of 34 broad
“essential” activities. One group
on the list was:

Abe Kasoff Is in the Soup
As AFL Gives Him the Works
Abe Kasoff is no longer a
“recognized” labor leader in the
Department of Sanitation, Last
week, .ommissioner Carey issued
a bulletin which was read to the
men three days in a row. The
bulletin, while it doesn’t mention
Kasoff’s name, virtually ki
away the final traces of his
power, for through this order,
Kasoff may: .
No longer use departmental
etime to organize or perform
any related activity,
No longer meet with any ot-
le ficial of the department to
discuss grievances or pzoblems
relating to working conaitions,
No longer collect dues, or
~ have any of his esho:ts col-
lect ducs, during working hours.
No longer act for the men in
‘¢ any recognized capaciiy.
This stripping or authority from
Kasoff 1s said to have the sanction
of Commissioner Carey, of Mayor
LaGuardia, of the Central Trades
and Labor Council, AFL, and of
Arnold Zander, national president
of the AFL Employees Union.
Kasoff is out, He's not wanted,
If he should do anything on city
time that could be construed as
violating the order issued by Com-
missioner Carey, he'll be swooped
out of the Sanitation Department,
which would make it the second
time, Only now, it’s not likely
he would come back,
The Charges
The AFL had serious charges
against Abe Kasoff—and has
made them stick, ‘The charges
were that Kasoff has failed to
pay up his per capita tax to the
AFL for 16 months, Brought up
on trial, Kasoff pleaded poverty,
promised that he would use the
money from a boxing bout held
last November to pay up, Pub-
licly he said he'd use the money
from the boxing bout to build up
his organization’s Death Benefit
Fund, But in the privacy of the
Commissioner's offices at 125
Worth Street, he said he'd use
- the money, Abe?
the cash to pay up his dues.
Without this promise, it is doubt-
ful that he would haye 1ece;ved
permission to soll tickets for the
boxi.g bout in t:me of war, when
any extra change might better go
into war bonds,
After, the boxing bout, he didn't
pay. No one questioned by The
LEADER (and that includes peo-
ple in a position to know) had
any idea where tie money from
that boxing bout has gone. They
say it was a packed house, at the
St. Nicholas Arena, 69 West 66.h
Street, Manhattan, ‘The boxers
were amateurs, so the cost for
talent was negligable, Where's
We'll be glad to
print your explanation,
Anyway, the AFL was pretty
much fed up with Abe Kasoff.
Arnold Zander and the Central
Trades and Labor Council had
held off taking action long
enough. When they did take ac-
tion, it was to boot Kasoff straight
out on his ear.
The Inside Story
Inside story behind this squelch-
ing of Kasoff is that Arnold
Zander took the matter up with
Mayor LaGuardia and with Com-
missioner Carey. The two city
officials agreed that Kacoff must
go. Zander sent a letter dated
December 18, 1942, vid air mail
from Wisconsin to a union of-
ficial in New York, outlining in
detail the conferences between
himself, LaGuardia and Carey.
In this letter, Zander made it
quite clear that both the Mayor
and the Commissioner were in
agreement about the necessity of
zooming Kasoff out of the pic-
ture. And the bulletin of Com-
missioner Carey, which was read
in every station of the Sanitation
Department, bears out the con-
tention that the City administra-
tion wants no part of Abe
Kasoff any longer. This change
of spirit is all the more remark-
able in view of the widespread
conviction that the City admin-
istration had apparently gone to
great lengihs to shield Kasoff;
and in view of the fact that the
original AFL affiliation had actu
ally been maneuvered by the
Mayor himself,
Kasoff the Union Man
Kasoff’s attitude as a union mon
evidenced in a two-page
paced mimeographed c
cular, in which he made broad
accusations against the AFL, at-
tempting to indict that or "6
tion for not performing work
which should haye been done by
his own local, according to all
trade union tenets.
Sald Abe's circular:
“In May, 1941, the Drivers’ Or-
tion; along with other lo
nto
als, Were practically forced
joining the 3.C, & M.E. of AFL,
There is no evidence presented
in the circular to support this
statement, Nor has any one
hinted that there was the sl’ght-
est element of coercion invoived
when Kasoff joined the AFL. Nor
was there anything in the inter-
vening time, to prevent Abe from
were
publi this fact if it
up the prestige of Abe Kasoff
gave it a respectability which it
had sadly lacked, Without inter-
vention of the official NYC fam-
ily, he probably could never have
succeeded in obtaining an AFL
charter,
Who Said It?
That circular which Abe issued
is an interesting document in
many ways. Says Abe:
“On this third venture into the
AFL in June, 1941, we were prom~
ised an increase in pay, 8 hours
a day of work, time and a halt
for overtime, time and a halt
for Sunday, and everything with
it that goes along for the pro-
tection of the employees in pri-
vate industries."’
But Abe doesn’t say who made
these promises. That's an excel-
lent program, of course, but the
kind that men usually get by
fighting for it. The central body
of the AFL is much too careful
an organization ta make any such
premises. And Abe is a big boy
now, so he knows that nobody
lere’s How the 6-Day
Working Out
and suggested staggering work
hours, wherever necessary, to
avoid Saturday afterncon chores,
Program Ready
Welfare quickly lined up its
program to comply in essence
with the Mayor's dictum but did
it on a 42-hour basis its own way,
which is the way most pleasing to
its employees who, after all, have
to turn out the work,
Health Department
Health said it is now working
a full Saturday in compliance
with the LaGuardia edict, Pre-
viously, it maintained a skeleton
crew on Saturday afternoons, It
has added four hours to its work
week through this arrangement,
Purchase Department
Purchase, which had been work-
ing a short shift on Saturday af-
ternoons, also reverted to a
full Saturday,
Public Works
Public Works was pretty much
on a full Saturday before, it
claims, and is in full swing all
day Saturday now, It pointed
out that those doing defense work
are still beng compensated for it
by time off on Saturday after-
noons, however,
The question of working six
full days a week in City depart-
ments and how it could be done
arose again about a fortnight ago
when the Mayor, in a talk in the
Department of Sanitation Res-
taurant at 125 Worth Street, Man-
hattan, to city officials insisted
that “string.nt measures would
have to be taken to ascerta n that
his order of January 7, 1942, is
upheld—and upheld as only Butch
wants it upheld, the way obsery-
ers see it,
‘These same obse: vers—respon:
ble parties in City Government—
have pointed out to The LEADER
again and again during the past
two weeks that the whole thing
cannot reasonably be obeyed to
the letter; that it is a whimsey
which will not increase efficiency.
However, most City departments
haye rushed to obey the com-
mand; others hesitated as to how
to put it into effect,
The LEADER quickly learned
that one City department dec:ded
to keep the old arrangement on
the ‘‘g.t.,"" that the Mayor just
wouldn't know the difference, or
would decide not to make an is-
sue of it,
It is believed that other City
departments are in the process
of or have already been manipu-
lating hours to carry out the es-
sence of the order and yet keep
employees satisfied, But they
are desirous of the strictest se-
crecy in order to avoid what they
consider that most terrible of ail
plagues for them: LaGuardia 1

Special List
For Police Jobs
Men on the New York City list
for Special Patrolman will soon
be receiving their appointments
as regular members of the ‘poli
force. 5
President Harry W. Marsh of
the Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission at its meeting last week
introduced a recommendation
that the men be certified to the
Department as soon as the No, 1
list is exhausted,
‘The last name on the No. 1 list
has already been certified to the
P. D., which leaves the way open
for the No, 2's to get their ap-«
pointments, With losses to the
draft and to war industries, it is
expected that the Police Dep:
ment will only with difficulty be
able to get its complement of 260
men from the last batch of cer-
tifieations and the second list will
be called upon,
The situation of those who have
taken jobs in the City service to
which ‘they were appointed from
this list is still undecided, The
men who are working as subway
policemen, tool takers, correction
officers, and in similar positions
Would in most cases take the Po-
lice Department positions if they

Against General Pay Raise
The odds are still 9 to 5 against
the City coming across with a
general salary increase for its em-
ployees in the lower brackets who
are having trouble meeting higher
living costs.
Manhattan Borough President
Nathan started the ball rolling
when he announced, two weeks
ago, that he favored a ten per-
cent increase for City employces,
and could show where the money
could be found.
Cashmore for Boost
John Cashmore, Brooklyn mem-
ber of the Board, came out for a
pay boost, fis statement:
“For some time it has been evi-
dent that because of the increaced
cost of living the salaries of City
employees are wholly inadequate
to permit them to carry the udd:-
tional financial burdens that have
arisen because of the war, Conse-
quently, i feel that cmergency
pay adjustments are necessary,
“I am in favor of a plan for a
general increase to correct the
hardships which City employees
are subjected to at this time, and
as a member of the Board of Esti-
mate I will do all in my power
to have such a plan adopted by
the City of New York immedi-
ately.”
Lyons for It
James J. Lyons, when reached
by The LEADER, stated that in
December, 1941, he had tried to
get the Board of Estimate to
grant a pay rise. , , the motion
which he made at the time was
referred to the budget director's
office, which the Deputy Mayor
said was
study of the situation,
has been done since,
In a letter dated December 17,
1942, and addressed to the Board
of Wstimate, Mr. Lyons writes,
“The Federal Government has in-
dicated a recognition of the situ-
ation confronting public em-
ployees by granting an increase.
I, therefore, again respectfully
request that a careful study be
made by the Budg.t Director and
a report be submitted as soon as
possible suggesting a program
that will aid civil service em-
ployees to meet the existing in-
creased cost of living.”
All five borough p:es:dents seem
to be in favor of the needed sal-
ary adjustments, BUT THE BOR-
OUGH PRESIDENTS HA V B
ONLY SEVEN VOTE3 ON THE
BOARD OF ESTIMATE (Man-
“making a complee
Nothing
Richmond, 1 vote).
On the other side of the pic-
ture, the Mayor, the Comptrotler,
and the Council President each
have three votes, which as civil
service employees know by now,
often are cast as a single bloc.
Where the Money Is
Private analyses of the city’s fi-
nanc‘al position have shown that
the legal tax limit has not yet
been reached, that the City has
32% million dollars in unused tax-
power; that the end of WPA, end
the food-stamp plan will add sev-
eral more millions to the munic-
ipal pocketbook; that cited fig-
ures have included employees who
are on military leave; that accru-
als total between 23 and 27 mil-
lion more dollars, and that a gen-
Queens Employees
Get the Once-Over
The first of a regular series of
“taxpayer tours” through the of-
fice of the Queens Borough Presi-
dent, to watch the civil servants
at work, was held last week.
Designed to show the citizens
the inner workings of their mu-
nicipal machinery, the tour at-
tracted a group of representatives
of taxpayers’ organization.
Despite the care with which
Herbert A, Koehler, assistant to
the Borough President, planned
the tour, the visitors refused to
lose sight of the objectives which
had brought them out on the
rainy afternoon,
The Lady Was Sour
The lady, who could not see why
every other house in Queens hed
paving in front of it, while hers
faced a patch of dirt, was in no
mood to listen to the finer dis-
tinotions between private and
city-owned streets, The fact that
she could ha
laid by _ civil
worker
of her property to the city
paying for a title search—was not
what she came out in the rain
to learn

puted failed to arouse great en-

ites, even when it was expl-ined

and women who had passed hard
tests. Most of the

clutches of their landlords by
owning a little home in the si

also call for an outlay of money.

City's financial structure,
Morris’ Stand
Newbold Morris, Council Presi-
dent, in an exclusive statement
to The LEADER, cited the ad-
ministration view:
“It is the duty of members of
the Board of Estimate to pre-
serve a balanced budget, Under
our financial system we finance
the day-to-day operations of the
City by borrowing on a short-term
basis, If our budget is in bal-
ance, the financial institutions
continue to lend money to enable
the city to mect payrolls, retire-
ment applications, and other ex-
penditures. If the budget is not
in balance, every paycheck and
every retirement allowance is en-
angered. As long as I am a
member of the Board of Esti-
mate, I do not feel I can yote
to appropriate funds which the
City hasn't got. This would be
a disservice to employees as well
as taxpayers.
“Some people forget that the
City's resources are limited. If
the State would assume the bur-
den of financing so-called State
functions, such as education and
the administration of justice, or
if the State would re-allocate
revenues collected from citizens
of New York City in proportion
to the amount collected, then
there would be an opportunity
for the City to alleviate the
lower paid City employees brought
on by war conditions,
“T do not know of any one in
authority who isn't anxious to
bring about a fair adjustment,
but as of today the money is just
not there.”

apology, leaving the final few
words to his subordinates.
If any one cares, the statue ot
Civie Virtue, wh'ch used to pose
in front of City Hall, is now out

Hell, but it didn't rate even a
glance from the departing tax-
payers, who probably put it in
the same category with all other
civil employees,

For the Sake of Accuracy
In the interests of accuracy and
The CIVIL SERVICE
desires to correct an
impression brought about by
three articles in its issues which
might have led to the belief that
it intended to imply that the
Civil Service Forum, an organ-
ization of Civil Service employees,
Municipal, County, State and
Federal, was then managed or
controlled by city-wide officers
who had recently been involved in
Civil Service frauds,
We refer specifically to the is-
sue of December 10, 1940, repor
ing a meeting of Sanitation eligi-
bles;, the issue of December 17,
1940, which quoted a letter writ-
ten by Paul J, Kern, who has
since been removed as President
of the Municipal Civil Service
Commission by Mayor Fiorello H.
LaGuardia; and the issue of De-
cember 24, 1940, which contained
an article repeating in substance
the statements of the said Paul J
Kern.
It was not the intention of The
LEADER, by those articles, to at-
tack the integrity of the Civil
Service Forum by impugning the
character of {ts then city-wide
officers, or by implying that any
of them had been involved in
Civil Service frauds, We regret
that the publication of such ar-
ticles may have created such an
inference. Any such inference is
not the fact,
We are glad to publish this
statement in the interests of ac-
curacy and fairness.

Is Reminded
Of a Problem
ALBANY. — The blue eyes of
redheaded Joe McGoldrick, comp-
troller of the City of New York,
blink brightly, despite the 17-
hour ordeal he has just been
through, as he shook his head
gravely, and sighed deep'y—
when asked:
“How will you vote on the pay
raise adjustment proposed by
Borough President Edgar Nathan
if and when it comes before the
Board of Estimate?”
Mr, McGoldrick had just
emerged from a marathon with
another comptrolier — Frank C.
Mcore, the Comptroller of New
York State, and some other guys,
‘They have been engaged off and
on—mostly on-in exploring the

‘Dead End’
ALBANY—State Senator Sey-
mour Halpern, Queens Republi-
ean and Chairman of the Senate
Civil Service Committee, last week
introduced in the Senate a bill to
eliminate the existing carriers to
inter-departmental promotions and
to put an end to the “dead-ends”
in the civil service system.
The bill vemoyes the limitation
in the Civil Service Law stating
promotions to fill vacancies in the
competitive civil service shall, so
far as practicable, be promotions
of persons ‘‘in the department, of-
fice or institution in which the
vacancy exists.” With this limi-
tation removed, the amended sen-
tence would read: ‘Vacancies in
positions in the competitive class
shall be filed, so far as practi-
cable, by promotion from among
persous holding positions in a
lower grade." ‘The bill makes no
other changes.
“Dead Ends”?
“At the present time there are
numbers of ‘dead ends’ in the
Civil Service, where the incum-
bents have no prospect of promo-
tion within the same department,
office or institution,” Senator Hal-
pern said. ‘The purpose of the
bill is to promote a genuine ca-
reer system and improve the in-
terest and morale of Civil Service
workers, by providing opportuni-
ties of promotion across depar
mental lines.
Aids Employes
‘In the Cornehl decision in 1940
the courts ordered the demotion
of 17 junior accountants who had
been promoted from other depart-
ments into the New York City
Comptroller's office by the use of
a city-wide promotion list in the
absence of a promotion list within
the department, and forced the
use of an open-competitive list as
preferable to what they held to be
Megal promotion, As a result
of
“The ¢
particular
City employees, on the other
other hand, feel that the ruling is
a ‘clear cut invitation to spend
their time outside of their work-
ing hours exactly as they please.
\The LEADER attempted to
check with several City depart-
ments to find cut the‘r attitude,
but was referred to the Civil
Service Commission. A spokes-
man for the commission indicated
that the who.e thing wes pure'y
a departmental affair, and none
of their business,
far-away Jook—as he stabbed the
crust of pie on which he was fin-
ishing his Ntrchcon.
His brown eyes took on an
earthly look as he volunteered the
startling information that he 1s
engaged—with others-in delving
into this pay raise business in re
sponse to ‘a page-long resolution
by: the City Cornelis, TE appeared,
you know, in the City Record.”
He said ‘he—they—would male

Was it possible that Comptroller
Joe's visit to Albany, his explor
ing trip, would result in his tind-

been able to discover some new
tax sources, the yield of wnich
would produce enough revenue to
meet pay raise obligations
The brown eyes turned to black,
and Comptroller Jce said:
“You can't quote me but. .
And just 1s Comptroller Joo was
about to tell’ all, Reuben Lazarus,
the LaGuardia lobbyist at the
Statehouse, leaned across the tabla
and gave Medoldrick's arm a tug.

said Rube.
And Comptroller Joe woke up

terious black but bright blue and
he turned to his questioner and

people who had never worked for
the City before displaced City
employees of long standing and
experience in comparative City
work, who had already completed
their probationary periods in the
new jobs, and the latter were
forced into lower positions at
lower salaries in departments
where some of them have no pros-
pect of advancement,
“In such circumstances it seems
clear that the public could often
get better service by the promo-
tion of persons already ‘trained at
public expense in ‘comparable
work in other departments, and
could alvo get better service in
the other departments, by giving
the employees there the incentive
of possible promotion,” he added.
“This bill would permit the
opening up of new lines of prora-
tion wherever the Civil Service
authorities of a municipality or
the State consider them appropri
ate, This should be of substantial
efit both to the public and to
the employees concerned. The in-
creasing number of vacancies due
to the war and the added dif
culty of filling some of them with
well qualified people make the
bill particularly appropriate at
this time."

Subway Situation
Is Getting Worse
Michael Quill was down with
appendicitis, Stoppages were
taking place in yarious parts of
the city, John Delaney was is-
suing sarcastic statements.
That, in essence, was the situa-
tion confronting the City in the
rapidly worsening relations be-
tween the Board of Transporta-
tion and the Transport Workers
Union last week,
The Board which the Mayor has
set up to study the problem had
made no public statement, But
the TWU had rallied to its side
a large namber of AFL, CIO and
unaffiliated un‘ons, and civ'e and
fraternal organizations have come
out in support of their drive for
a living wage,
Saul Mills, secretary of the New
York City CIO, and a veteran in
labor affairs, has been assigned
by the organ: ion to devote his
entire time to assisting the trans-
port workers in their struggle
with the Board for union condi-
tions and 'y increases,
Since the start of the campsign
for a raise, the union charges,
they have run egainst a brick
wall in the person of Chairman
John H. Delaney of the Board
of Transportation,
A special committee, headed by
Professor MacMahon of Columbia
University, and Professor
of N.Y. U., in
cized the Board of Transporta-
tion for its attitude towards ¢
employees, and suggested arbit:a-
tion as the only fair way of
reaching a penceful, equitable
settlement,
The War Labor Board, which
had refused to take the case, had
nevertheless urged the formation
of permanent labor-relation ma-
chinery on City owned enterprises,
and the settlement of disputes by
arbitration, But nothing has come
up to indicate that any such plan
is in the wind,
Sweatshop Tradition
The transport workers charge
that the City is running the sub-
ways in the best sweatshop tra-
ditions, and refuses to consider
their proposals for a four-point
program which would restore
Peace to the system,
‘The workers’ demands are for:
1. An increase of 15 percent in
wages to meet the “Little Steel’?
formula,
2, Union security, and the ap-
plication of a maintenance of
membership clause,
3. A revision of the rules to im-
prove working conditions,
4. A labor management commit-
tee for the purpose of expediting
the operations of the subway sys-
tem and saving needed materials
for the prosecution of the war.

‘Overhaul Civil Service,’
Says Legislative Group
ALBANY—Although the Joint
Legislative Committee to Inves-
tigate Civl Service will itself sub-
mit no specific legislation of a
vemedial character when it re-
ports, the committee will recom-
mend that the whole department
be overhauled, it was learned this
week.
‘rom our studies it is evident
that the law of civil service is an-
tiquated as are the rules and reg-
ulations of the department,” said
a representative of the study
group. “The State is getting poor
administration of a poor law.
‘There is confusion, over-lapping
of functions and the whole sys-
tem has got to be revamped.”
130 Recommendations
In addition to its own findings,
the committee received 120 rec-
ommendations for specific
changes from the Civil Service
Commission itself, it was re-
vealed,
“It is simply impractical if not
impossible to appiy 130 patches to
the fabric of civil service admin-
istration in this State,” said a
committee member. It was evi
dent that the committee would
recommend no piece-meal legisla-
tion and in fact will introduce no
bills except possibly some emer-
gency measures to ease up on
civil service requirements so as to
meet the eritical recruitment sit-
uation,
‘Temporaries
One of the startling disclosures
of the committee is that despite
the four months’ tenure provision
dor temporary appointees, of the
2,264 temporary appointees on the
State payroll in all departments,
1,314 have been on since January
1, 742,
“This is evidence of the failure
of the civil service law to func-
on, It is evident also that per-
scnnel aczninistration, involving
nuore than 70,000 State employees,
has broken down under the pres
ent cystem, The committee feels
that it has done all it can do up
tc now in pointing out what is
wrong and where. If the Legisla-
ture desires to proceed from that
basis and continue the survey to
work out a complete revamping
of the department, it will have to
authorize such action.’
Suggests
Here are some of the things the
committee suggests without, how-
ever, offering any legislation:
the appointment of a personnel
administrator “to take care of the
day-to-day details of civil service
administration without acting un-
der the influence of the Civil Ser-
vice Commi8sion"; _ introduction
of a unit payroll system so that
delays twice a year when the civil
service department checks every
payroll in the State can be
avoided.
Another proposal is for decen-
tralization of the department,
with sub-offices to be established
in New York City, Buffalo, Ro-
chester, ana possibly some other
points. The committee believes
also that the dopartment should
carry on a continuous recruit-
ment service but that original ap-
peintment qualifications should
be less strict und standards less
high then at present.
Not Admirals
“The United States Navy does
not recruit admirals, but seamen,
and we believe the State should
adopt a similar policy for the less
important but more numerous po-
sitions,” said a committee mem-
ber.
He pointed out that ‘when an
examination is conducted to pro-
vide eligible lists for clerks and
stenos and 100,000 participate in
such tests it takes two years to
score the papers and by that time
the good applicants, the ambi-
tious people looking for work al-
ready have gotten jobs, They just
couldn't wait that long. That's
one of the impractical aspects of
civil service as presently con-
ducted.”
He said also that there is con-
sion over the definition of
terms; that certain minimum
qualitications should be required
even for exempt jobs; that block
certification of names of candi-
dates should be adopted to speed
up appointments by appointing
officers,
Continuous Check
“Unfortunately civil _ service
seems to have been run as a ser-
vice for employees instead of to
service the departments of the
State government. Moreover,
there should be a continuous
check on ability and standards of
those at work. Civil service is
now a negative force when it
should be positive in the interests
of better performance by employ-
ees,” he said.

General
Bradley’s
Column
By
Brigadier General
John J. Bradley (Ret.)
Ths is the seventh of the weekly columns by The LEADER'S
Military Editor, General Jobn J. Bradley (Ret.).
General Bradley's column discusses such subjects as the effects
Brigadier
of the changing manpower situation on Civil Service employees;
opportunities that from time to time become available in the armed
forces; jobs and training for war industries; changes in selective
service regulations and their effect on every individual, with par-
ticular reference to those in Government employment. General
Bradley’s material is intended to be down-to-earth, and written in a
manner that can prove directly helpful to the reader. While the
General cannot undertake to answer individual questions, he will be
glad to receive such questions, and if they are of sufficiently wide
interest, to answer them in his column.
The System of Joint Recruiting
PLENTY OF QUESTIONS REMAIN UNANSWERED
about the new system of joint-drafting by the various services which
began this week. But one question that probably troubles many of
the persons who've been confused by the newspaper accounts can
be answered: namely, has the individual any choice about the serv-
ice he wants to enter, or must he go where he’s sent—Army, Navy,
Marine Corps, or Coast Guard?
Well, here's how it'll work. The man shows up at his draft
board in the usual manner. If he wants a specific service, he may
ask for it, and the draft board has the right to recommend him for
the service he wants, within the limits of a quota. But whether or
not he’s recommended, he still has a choice open: when he appears
at the induction station. Here he'll come up before a group of offi+
cers representing the various services. He has the privilge of re-
questing the service he desires. If his request can reasonably be met,
it wil’ be . .. You can anticipate further changes in this setup.
W ho Can't Be an Army Officer
New policies established by officer procurement service
sharply limit the opportunities of persons seeking to become offi-
cers directly from civilian life. You can’t be appointed an officer
directly if—
1, You've been classified by your local board as being in
class I-A-O, I-B-O, IV-E, or IV-LS;
2, If you've been notified by your board to report for induc-
tion;
3. If you've been deferred for the purpose of obtaining a
commission;
4. If the duties of the job can be performed by available
civilian personnel;
5. If you're under 35 years of age and have no previous com-
missioned service (unless you're in class IV-F because of a physi-
cal disability) ;
6. If you're between 34 and 38, but could be classified in
class I-A or class II;
7. If you work for the United States government (unless
your superior has given his written consent for you to seek a
commission).
A former commissioned officer isn’t subject to these re=
strictions.
This and That
The Marine Corps has begun to set up its women’s corps.
Merchant Marine next? ... No matter what the Army does about
its men over 38, the Navy intends to holds on to them. They vol-
unteered, says the Navy, and weren't drafted... The K-9 Corps,
or Dogs for Defense, has asked all who can contribute the animals
to do so. They're used to cut down sabotage, Dogs may be male
or female, 1 to 5 years old. Write to Dogs for Defense, 22 East
60th Street, New York City ... Watch for a widely expanded
aviation training program under the Civil Aeronautics Administra
tion... To all civilians between 18 and 38: you must carry not
only your draft registration card, but also your classification card—
at all times ... There's a vast need of sanitary engineers, for Army,
Navy, public health services, governmental agencies. If you've
had training in this field, apply at once to the nearest Procurement
and Assignment Service in your area...
Lawyers and the War
The lawyers won't be left out in the cold much longer, A
broad program of utilizing lawyers has been developed by the
American Bar Association and the War Manpower Commission,
The plan will use the services of lawyers in six specific projects.
Two of these have to do with providing legal service to war work~
ers; two are concerned with making individual lawyers available
for war production and other war work. The other two offer the

The City Picture
VERY once in a while, we like to stand off and
4 take a look at the shape of things in civil service—
1D just to make sure we have the picture in the right
perspective,
We observe that things are changing, and some of the
changes are for the better, some for the worse.
SPARE TIME JOBS
Take the Court of Appeals decision, which grants to
New York City employees the right to hold jobs in their
spare time, It removes a needl
source of aggrava-
tion and, at the same time, permits employees to feel
like other cit'zens, Up in Albany, civil service employees
have been encouraged to take spare time war jobs, and
the State's work hasn't
W:
help nearby farmers, The government loses nothing, and
ffered thereby. Down in
hington, government gals go out each week-end to
the girls return healthier, We never did see the justifi-
cation of the Mayor's order prohibiting outside employ-
ment. The Court of Appeals decision is a step forward.
Of course, outside work mustn't interfere with the
regular job.
6-DAY WEEK
Mr, LaGuardia’s conscience must be troubling him about
the six-day week, When he first instituted it, last year,
it just didn't work, and when he sought to modify it
again, he wanted to do it quietly, so no one would be
aware he was changing his mind. Week before last,
when he suddenly proposed his commissioners bring back
the long work-week, he asked them to ume the onus
themselves. Now, it isn't exactly the best thing for an
employee's attitude when he knows that a Federal worker
in the building across the street gets time-and-a-quarter
for overtime; while the NYC employee gets nothing,
PAY INCREASES
It makes it doubly tough that the city administration
shows no signs of granting pay increases. Newbold
Morris, who granted a long exclusive statement to this
newspaper which may be taken to represent the admin-
istration's point of view, speaks feelingly of the plight
of underpaid employees; however, says he, there’s just
no money, Now, it has been shown where the money
could come from, if the city is willing, Morris and all
other members of the Estimate Bodrd must be impressed
with the fact that the money is available. The employees
have been doing a well-nigh heroic job of fighting for
an increase in pay. They'll have to heighten their strong
attack—and fight with facts, They're fortunate in hav-
ing the facts on their side,
THE SUBWAY STOPPAGES
“The city has to decide whether or not a person not
an officer of our city government can run the transit
system”: quote from Mayor LaGuardia after last Wed-
nesday’s stoppages by IRT maintenance men.
But that isn’t the issue at all: it’s camouflage, The
real issue—
The city has to decide whether or not a person who
is an officer of our city government can bludgeon the
transit men into submission, leaving their grievances and
irritations up in the air; or whether a plan is to be
adopted whereby those grievances and irritations can be
carefully considered by an impartial body of citizens with
no axes to grind.
ABE KASOFF
One of the less savory aspectg of NYC's civil service
is Abe Kasoff, This newspaper went to some lengths to
expose this man, his antics, and his code of labor moral-
ity. So it’s not displeasing to learn that the AFL, with
which his Sanitation organization had been affiliated, has
thrown him out, with the blessings of a large part of the
citizenry.
Amen,

Postal Man
Wants Bonus
Sirs: Is there any just reason
why postal workers, among the
hardest workers in either Fedcral
or Municipal fields, cannot get
that long sought for $300 bonus?
The Government has more than
100 billion dollars to devote to the
war effort but refuses to give its
faithful postal people any sort of
a break despite the fact that they,
on their routes, are contributing
in their own way as much toward
the war effort as any other group
of persons, It's time that Con-
gress and President Roosevelt got
down to some sound thinking on
the effect on morale constant
stalling is having, The public
thinks that overtime pay should
be satisfying the postal personnel,
jut the truth is that this over-
time isn’t at all what it's reputed
to be, We're asking a $500 a year
wartime bonus as the only legiti-
mate reward for these hard wor'
ers to enable them to meet the
inereeased cost of living. Aside
from the fact that they've waited
more than 17 years for something
of the sort,

YOU'D THINK THAT the
dean of a college of engineering
(and one who knows more about
manpower than almost anyone
else in the country) would be an
old fogey, with a gontee, an ab-
stract air, and a face like a slide
rule, But Dr. Albert 8, Newman,
dean of the CCNY College of En-
gineering, and regional director of
the U.S, Office of Education, who
is in charge of the scientific war
training courses between Long Is-
land and Poughkeepsie, is a viola~

Right now, besides taking care
of his own job up at City College,
flying around the country on offi-

ganizing and regulating Engincer-

much else to do except for the
half dozen or so scientific com-
mittees on which he serves.
Women Wanted
His biggest headache now, fs
trying to get more women to £9
into scientific training for needed
jobs in war industry. Seems most
of the college gals are weak
in math, Without math, you
can't be a lady scientist, hence
there aren't enough females
around to wield slide rules and

Says the Dean: could use
50,000 women in engineering jobs
in tHe next 6 months. Probably
10,000 could be placed today, And
unless the women do their share
to replace men going into the
services, We may not reach our
production goals.’”
Explains that if more women
took.advantage of the free courses
offered through his program--
mostly college gals needed—they
would be able to get jobs starting
at about §2,000 with good pros-

long before the draft—the Com-
missioner had the funds available
for appointing at Jeast 900 patrol-

ucing a method of lowering the
Department's standards, of bring-
ing into the Department perma-

wrong if we suggested that the
plan is not even the Commis-
sioner’s, and that it originated a

Memo to the Mayor
The Police Commissioner is a
most uncommunicative gentle-
man, Mr. Mayor. So we address
the question to you: Whatever
became of the plan to use the
Sergeant's list for the appoint-
ment of men to plainclothes de-
tails? We've offered to drop the
whole matter as soon as a plau-
sible explanation is offered for
this deviation from the an-
nounced and much - publicized
plan. We repeat this offer and
eagerly await an explanation.
Outside Jobs?
‘That Court of Appeals decision
nullifying the Mayor’s 1938 ruling
prohibiting City employees from
holding outside jobs should not
cause a wave of policemen rush-
ing to employment agencies,
Members of the police force were
barred from such extra activity
long before the Mayor came on
the scene. Policemen have al-
ways been regarded differently in
the matter of outside activity than
have been other City employees.
We don't know where any po-
liceman can find the time to en-
gage in any other calling, but
can anyone tell us what the ob-
jection is to a policeman being
engaged as a carpenter or a
Plumber—or th any other calling
at which he may be skilled—if he
can possibly tind the time to do

Speaking of people, reminds us

employees are people too...
found out that he's been Indus-

that Welfare is the only govern-
ment department which has a
man like him just to keep things
rolling along smoothly .. .
The department has been cited
as having the most progressive
labor policy of any, Ranen fecls
there is room for negotiation of
labor unions and employee organi-
zations in the civil service.
He's written books and maga-
zine articles on his field and given

istration . . . Now preparing for a

Latecomers in the department
are beginning to worry about
their jobs .. . The case load is
dropping fast with people who
haven't worked for years getting
jobs on the war program . . .
Less cases mean less help used in
Welfare... No word from high
quarters, yet, as the draft has
been reducing the staff fast
enough to meet the cut in work,
but cause for anxiety. . .
‘Week of February 7-14 all the
Net York cops.
Crews this week
‘was to introduce a companion bill
to his bill of several weeks ago
calling for an increase in police-
men's and firemen’s salaries
throughout th ‘This sec-
ond bill would apply only to New
York patrolmen.
It 1s. Mr. Crews’ contention that
no problem exists insofar as the
State Legislature's power to com-
pel a city to increase the pay of
police appointees. In short, the
State legislature can order Mayor
“Butch” LaGuardia to do some-
thing about low patrolmen sal-
aries.
“And don’t think their salaries
aren’t low,” pointed out Assem:
blyman Crews. “Despite the pub+
lic belief that cops are well paid,
when you consider the general ex-
penditures they have on thelr
hands, they haven't any too much
on which to support families, as
most of them do.”
The first Crews bill has been
advocated by the New York State
Police Conference, comprising
more than 40,000 policemen, as
well as by the New York State
Fire Fighter Association. What's
more, the belief is that Patrick
Harnedy, president of the Patrol-
men's Benevolent Association in
New York, is for it.
“In my opinion,” insists Mr.
Crews, “where there is a plain,
bona-fide case of wage or salary
maladjustments, such as present-
ly exists in the pay of patrolmen
and firemen, the machinery for
correcting such wrongs—and it
amounts to just that—is there and
can be used if the way is shown
to those in authority:’”
They’re Really Trying
Here’s the inside story of the
program laid out by the four
police and the four fire organiza-
tions to assure a pay raise:
1. This week, the presidents of
all the organizations are up in
Albany, plugging away for the
Crews 15 percent pay raise bill.
In Albany, they'll meet with up-
State police and fire groups to
plan, joint strategy.
2. If they don’t get anywhere
in Albany, they have a bill ready
to be introduced in the City
Council, calling for a $50-a-month
increase to all cops. The bill
calls for a referendum to be held
among the people of New York
City.
3. If the bill gets through the
Board of Estimate and is vetoed
by the Mayor, the police and fire
groups will then try to get a
two-thirds vote in the Council to
over-ride the veto,
Looks like they mean it this
time.

By ARTHUR RHODES
Rest Room Prowlers!
I agree that a particular per-
centage of employees will be
tempted to loiter in rest rooms
in almost any big organization;
it seems to be a characteristic
plece of human sloppiness. It
happens even in the Veterans Ad-
ministration building over at 316
Broadway.
These are the boys and girls
known as rest room loiterers.
They derive a certain scientific
satisfaction out of noting how
imany minutes they can chop off
their schedule in the supposed
sanctity of the toilet.
But there are just so many of
those people and eventually many
are routed back to work and in
time they convert themselves into
efficient workers (I hope). The
few that remain perennial rest
room addicts aren't worth
body’s attention anyhow; they
just don't produce the normal
amount of work and are un-
covered for’ what they are, or
aren't.
Outstanding among overzealous
rest room router-outers in the Vet
Administration, where there are
more than a few, is Herby Hud-
son, assistant manager of the
whole extravaganza.
Oh, Mr. Hudson!
Herby Hudson is an impressive
looking gentleman and is really
good administrator, and, for this
reason if for no other, employees
do not naturally expect him to de-
vote a considerable share of his
time to practices like these. C. J.
Reichert, boss of the place, once
told me that he has some of the
most efficient prowlers — includ-
ing himself—in any Federal unit.
Innumerahle complaints from
employees all over the building
have been coming in, pointing
out, in fact, that some of the big
names devote more time to rov-
ing in rest rooms seeking to rout
out alarmed individuals than they
do to any other special chore.
any-
Ouw-w-w-dt!
The other day, just to test this
complaint, I walked into the
men’s room on the fourth floor
and brought a witness with me.
Inside of five minutes, Herby
Hudson was there,
“Here's that man again,” the
boys seemed to mutter as they
scattered in all directions,
What I would like to know, and
what many of Vet employces
would, too, is: does Herby Hud-
son receive a sizeable salary to
haunt rest rooms, or has he really
anything important to do in
speeding up the war effort in the
building, which anyhow he is pald
to do?
It’s Discouraging!
Of course, Herby Hudson isn’t
the only rest room prowler of sig-
nificance. There are many super-
visors and sub supervisors and
even more clerks who delight in
chasing after employees continu-
ally, so that Innocent employees
actually have become discouraged
and, rather than go, just mutter
“what the hell, if the Russians
can hold out, so can I.”
Just an Example
An indication of what I mean
is contained in this communice-
tion that arrived this week:
“I've been following your

notice that although you've men
tioned many divisions and fleors
of the Veterans’ Administration,
you never said anything about
that section of the fifth floor
which is ‘ruled’ by Miss Beaulah
Dicks and Miss Katie Blount.
‘What is the reason for this? It
certainly isn't because of their
efficiency and tact in dealing
with employees,
“We have all become more or
less accustomed to being treated
like reformatory inmates. At
first we used to sign in and out
when we went to the rest room,

Blount who either tells us dl-
rectly to get out of the bathroom
or else opens the windows so wide

F. Carr is one of the

“Worse than such pettiness is
the fact that there are about 30
typists in this section who have
been here for over seven months

this time there has been only one
promotion and that for a girl
who admitted she had ‘pull’ with
the ‘higher-ups,' She is now get+
ting a promotion to jewer"
which is grade four.
“The rest of the typists sit in
small stuffy dark rooms with no
hope of ever getting out. When
we inquire why there are so
many promotions on other floors

some polite evasion and that ends
the matter. You would have the

Back to Herby
How about this, Herby? How
about peering into a legitimate
grievance of this nature instead
of wasting all of the talents Mrs.
Hudson gave her little boy by
prowling around rest rooms?
Ack-Ack!
I called J. J. Allen's personnel
office the other afternoon, as I
frequently do, and obtained the
worst anti-aircraft retorts I have
received in some time—and from
a gal working there her first day
on the job. It seems she was the
only individ@al in the office at
the time, though it was far from
lunchtime.
“You mean to say," I asked in
my suavest tone, “that you can-
not possibly tell when anybody
would want to come back and
help you get out the worl?”
she de-
we
manded, ever so pertl:
“Because,” said I, still strug
gling to be suave,’ about six
girls, I imagine, get out the work:
you're indicating you're capable
of handling, What's your name,
anyhow?”
“That question,” sald she, and
I could virtually see her waving a
flag, “you'll have to ask the Civil
Service Commission."”
About Smoking
Some of the boys and girls are
still wondering why smoking has
been outlawed throughtout the
building, The truth is, as a num-
ber of persons already know, that
a fire burst forth on the sev-
enth floor November 28 and des
stroyed about 2,000 records which,
they say, happen to be replace-
able. The cause, never revealed,
is believed to have been a lighted
cigarette. ‘The exact time of the
fire was 12:37 a. m., just as the
Saturday afternoon off period had
started, H. A, Braden, assistant
chief of the actuarial subdivision,
found the fire extinguishers near
by not sufficient and finally,
called the Fire Department,
That, boys and gals, is the reas
son why you aren't permitted to
smoke unless you're on the
Broadway and Lafayette Street
levels,
What I'd like to know Is: what's
the large secret about a common
fire? Why hasn’t it ever been

MORTGAGE MONEY?
For example, a mortgage of $1,000 remaining unchanged for 20 years at
6%, costs $1,200 in interest. However, monthly payments of $6.33 would
pay the full amount of the loan in the same period, and the interest cost
would be only $519.20, a saving of $680.80, or more than 55%.

An Appeal to My Boss
You are unaware of me, although you see me
every day.
You do not know me, although you speak to
me, and we are very friendly.
You are not conscious of my existence, al-
though, frequently, you look for me.
When you look for me, you know that you
will find me. For I am always on the job. You
can depend on me.
I like you to depend on me, because I appre-
ciate your trust. I am proud of your faith in me.
I like to see the smile that lights your fac#,
when I am of service to you. 1 get akick out of
working for you.
There is only one thing, Boss. I am afraid
you have forgotten me.
I know that you are busy, that you are
thinking of your sons in the service, that you are
struggling against the high cost of living, that
you are wondering how you can purchase more
war bonds and stamps to help your country.
You have your responsibilities. Your families
to clothe and feed. Your churches to support
Your children to educate. You can be excused
for forgetting me.
But, still, Boss, you have forgotten me.
I, too, have my sons in the service. I, too, am
struggling against the high cost of living, wonder.
ing how I can purchase more war bonds and
stamps to help our country in its hour of peril,
I, too, have my responsibilities. My family to
clothe and feed. My church to support. My chil-
dren to educate. And, I am not able to meet my
responsibilities because of my salary.
You see, Boss, I have been working for the
same salary for the past seventeen years. You have
not given me a raise since 1925.
In 1932, when you were up against it, Boss,
I worked a full month for you without pay.
In 1933, when you were still hard-pressed,
I took a fifteen percent cut in salary. Again, in
that same year, I went on a nine-day furlough
without pay.
Today, Boss, I am up against it. I need your
help. And, I know that you will help me, if you
will but think of me.
You, the American people, are My Boss.
I am your postal employee, your letter-carrier,
your Post Office clerk, your Post Office laborer,
your railway mail man and motor vehicle employee.
The new Congress must really do something
to increase my salary. A last-minute action of
the present Congress has left us out in the cold.
We require a straight pay-rise, not hemmed in
with “ifs” and “buts.” Won’t you send the coupon
on this page to your Congressman?

Previously, in April (when the
3-B classification was first creat-
ed, Selective Service had this to
“Local Boards are instructed
that it Is not necessary to deter-
mine whether the registrant is a
‘necessary man,’ but only to de-
termine whether he is engaged in
a non-essential activity, in which
case he is placed in Class III-A,
or whether he is engaged in an
activity essential to war produc-
tion or essential to the support of
the w'ar effort, in which case he
is placed in Class III-B.
Finally, in December, National
Headquarters advised:
‘Class III-B was created for the
primary purpose of giving Fegis-
trants deferred by reason of de-
pendency an incentive to seek em.
ployment in war-supporting activ-
ities and to aid such activities by
delaying the time when regis.
trants In these activities will be
considered for reclassification.”
“The ‘necessary man’ test, like-
wise, has been specifically and
purposely left out of consideration
for classification in Class III-B
because it is obvious that an tn-
skilled man would not be able to
obtain employment in a war-sup-
porting activity and become @
‘necessary man’ until he had con-
siderable training and experi-
ence.”
‘To Federal employees who have
asked whether they should go to
their draft boards and ask for the
3-B rating, the best advice is
Wait until this situation is com-

assistance of the organized Bar in promoting public understanding
of manpower problems.
Under the manpower plan lawyers will be encouraged to
participate directly in war work by:
1. Cooperative arrangements between State and local Bar
Associations and the U, S, Employment Service for the recruit-
ment and training of lawyers who are willing to take jobs in essen-
tial war industries.
2. The setting up of a national register of lawyers by the
National Roster of Scientific and Specialized Personnel of the War
Manpower Commission to make available the many collateral skills
and abilities of lawyers in other than the legal field.
Organization of the legal profession to provide legal service
for war workers will take two forms:
1, State and local Bar Associations in war industry centers
will organize committees of lawyers to handle the personal legal
probems of war workers, particularly those problems arising out
of the movement and transfer of war workers from one com-
munity to another. The committee will work in cooperation with
the local officers of the U. S. Employment Service in establish-
ing a “referral service” so that legal problems of war workers can
be referred to and handled by competent attorneys. This will be
done either on a fee or free legal aid basis depending on the inde-
vidual’s circumstances,
2, State and local Bar Associations will survey new war
boom communities to determine whether present legal services are
adequate, and if not, how needed additional services may be pro-
vided, This could be done by encouraging lawyers to transfer to
their communities or by arrangements for established lawyers in
near-by cities to service the community on a part-time basis.
To promote public understanding of manpower problems two
projects are planned:
1. Cooperation between the Public Information Program of
the American Bar Association and the Information Service of the
War Manpower Commission to bring information on manpower
programs and policies to all parts of the country.
2. The preparation by the American Bar Association of a
handbook of information on the legal aspects of the manpower
program,
For the A.B.A., the program is under the immediate super-
vision of Leonard J. Emmerglick, Hill Bldg., Washington, D. C.

‘These laws are basic. No law

suspend them, yet the Comptroller
General directed the Postmaster
General to disregard them.
That's the argument, and it
sounds logical enough,
Seems as though the Post Of-
fice boys may be getting a break
in the national Capitol after all.
The McCarran Bill, increasing the
salaries of police, firemen, and
school teachers, will enhance the
possibilities of legislation includ-

The Grand Old Boys of the Post
Office Department, the Retired

tenth annual affair on February

Clipped by 48 Hows
Charles Dillon, new piexy of
Branch 41, NACL, comes through
with some statistics to show how
the 48-hour week clips the postal
carriers, . . , If he takes a day
off and hasn't leave to make up
for it, he loses $5.36 base pay, plus
$872 in overtime because he
hasn't reached 48 hours that week
+. . total loss for one day's rest,
the painful sum of $14.08 . . .
tain't right,
One unexpected result of the
new regulations 1s this—a man
may need a day off to rest cause
he isn't feeling too chipper, but
figures that he can't afford the
luxury of a fourteen buck vaca-
tion—result he goes out on the
Job, and flops in the street. . .
according to the boys, this has al-
ready happened more than once.

the time 9 on the bell. . . that's
what the committee promises . . .
and Eddie Rockwell, chairman of
the gala event, swears that at the
stroke of nine Fred Spiegel and
his sixteen-plece orchestra will
start throwing tunes.
The committee has been scour-
ing the town raising vaudeville
and acts for the show, and some
top-flight entertainers promised to
show up and make with the
talent. , . 8 acts have been lined
up to date, Thomas Lapolla,
president of NYLCA, says it will
be a good opportunity for
boys to forget their: troubles for
one night, and even the boys who
aren't happy unless they're mis-
erable about something, will be
there with smiles on.
As for the past 53 years all the
politicos who would like to get the
votes of the men who carry the
mail will be there, and at the rate
tickets are going, most of the
people who get mail will be there,

Training Bureau
vs. Merit System
The Bureau of Training, for-
merly part of the Civil Service
Commission, “‘has been one which
flagrantly violated our Civil Serv-
ice. principles,” James V. King,
president of the New York Dis-
trict, State County and Municjpal
Workers of America, this week
charged in urging Mayor LaGuar-
dia to “investigate the serious
faults which existed In the old or-
ganization and to take steps to
initiate a merit system procedure
in this agency,”
The Bureau of Training is be-
ing transferred to the Mayor's of-
fice.
“Cousultants”
Mr, King held that the Bureau
of Training hus ignored strict
Civil Service procedure to jack
“highsalaried ‘consultants’ into
regular administrative and super-
visory positions of the Bureau, ’,
He termed it ‘‘following a con-
sistent policy of insinuating’
these higher-ups into advances
jobs.
This policy, said Mr. King, has
violated the “fundamental prin-
iples of the career service anil
has, as a result, “invclved an ex-
cessive expenditure of funds in
the way of salaries.”
Many Protests
Mr. King vem‘nded Mayor La-
Guardia that the SCMWA has
“made continuous protests with
specific recommendations con-
cerning this situation ever since
the abuses first arose” and added
that, thongh the order transfering
the Bureau of Training from the
Commission to the Mayor's office
“will be an effective step in cen-
tralizing and unifying the organ-
ized civilian war effort of this
city,’ investigation and correction
of the alleged abuses are in order
“so that the Bureau's work may
be accomplished more effici-
ently.”

Hospital Workers
Oppose 12-Hour
W orking Day 1
‘The Governor's proposal_ that
employees of State mental ‘insti-
tutions be allowed the privilege
of working 12 hours daily instead
of the present 8, at straight time,
was strongly condemned by mem-
bers of the Brooklyn State Hos-
pital Employees’ Association last
week,
Arguing against
hours, they point out:
Administrative difficulties in-
‘~herent in carrying out a pro-
gram of “volunteer” hours will
have to lead to some form of
coercion,
‘This measure will not solve
‘the manpower difficulty, as
longer working hours will only
lead many of the newer employ-
ees to seek other jobs, A higher
wage scale would probably solve
the problem,
Brooklyn Hospital is not un-
/~ derstaffed, and while the new
measure may be needed in some
of the up-State institutions, it is
not needed in Brooklyn.
At present they receive a bonus
for night work, and wonder what
will happen to this extra pay
when the 12-hour day is estab-
lished.

ALL LABOR SUPPORT
THE TRANSPORT WORKERS UNION IN ITS EFFORT
TO SETTLE THE TRANSIT DISPUTE BY
ARBITRATION!
On behalf of the organized labor movement, we oe our i Taree. support of the Transport Workers Union in its efforts to
obtain a living wage for the 32,000 employees on #
New York City Transit System.
The New York Board of Transportation has refused to grant these employees a wage increasé sufficient to meet the increased
cost of living.
The Transport Workers Union has always sought a peaceful solution of its dispute with the Board of Transportation. IT HAS
PLEDGED ITSELF NOT TO STRIKE, All it asks is that the matters in dispute be submitted to impartial arbitration.
We regard the course suggested by the Union as the best guarantee that the morale of the employees will be. preserved and
that the safety and efficiency of our Transit System will be maintained during this period of national emergency.
The Transport Workers Union therefore DESERVES the support of all the people in our City.
WE CALL UPON ALL ORGANIZED LABOR AND THE PEOPLE GENERALLY TO ATTEND A PUBLIC RALLY TO BE HELD AT MADISON
SQUARE GARDEN ON FEBRUARY 9TH, 1943, AT 8 P. M., TO EXPRESS THEIR SUPPORT OF NEW YORK CITY'S TRANSIT EMPLOYEES,
