Full Information for Those Planning Dele Obes

To Take Hospital Attendant Exam

With 6,000 to 10,000 jobs to be filled throughout the State over a period of four years, filing opened
this week for Hospital Attendant, State and county institutions. The jobs pay $54-$66 a month, plus
food and lodging. Where no food and lodging are available, the salary is higher.

June 4 is the filing deadline for the exam, while written application forms will not be issued after
June 3. The exam itself is scheduled for Saturday, June 29.

Age limits of 18-45 have®

been set by the State Civil
Service Commission. Both
men and women are eligible
to compete. No previous
training is required, and jobs
are available to residents in
every corner of the State.
Thus every man and woman
within the age limits in every
city, village, and town may
compete for the jobs.
Written and Medical

The written test will count 100
per cent, Before appointment,
though, candidates will have to
pass medical and physical exam~-
inations given by the physicians
of the various institutions. These
medical exams will be held in
hospitals close to the homes of
the candidates.

A list of those who pass
this test will be set up in De-
cember, and the first appoint-
ments made in January. Present
attendants remain on the job

without exams, but all vacancies
henceforth will be filled by open
competitive tests.

Those who pass the exam
(known as eligibles) will be ap-
pointed to institutions near their

home, under a zone system to be;

worked out by the State Civil
Service Commission later this
year.

Applications are available at the
main office of the Commission,
Albany; at the New York City
office, 80 Centre St., Manhattan,
and at the Buffalo State Office
Building, Mail requests for blanks
are to be accompanied by a self-
addressed envelope, along with 6
cents for postage. The filing fee
is 50 cents,

Some 50 attendant jobs in the
Correction Department are ex-

throughout the State. Meanwhile residents of New York
City learned that additional job opportunities will be theirs
early next year, when a new institution opens at Willow
Brook, Staten Island, Some buildings will be opened next
Spring.

Under the zone plan to be set up, eligibles will-be certified
only to institutions in their own neighborhood. The opening
of a new hospital will therefore have direct bearing on the
possibilities of appointment. The new Willow Brook institu-
tion, as yet unnamed, will house 3,000 patients, retain a staff
of some 800 Attendants, both men and women.

Building plans of the Mental Hygiene Dept. call for erection
of still another institution in the Greater New York area, This
will be near Deer Park, Long Island, in the vicinity of Pil-
grim State Hospital. The site was bought this Winter.

lungs are also checked and any
abnormality, deformity or other
condition that would prevent the

Steps in Examination

Candidates go through the fol-
lowing steps as they are examin-
ed: First they have their notice
cards checked. They write in
their names, addresses and ap-
Plication numbers on medical
cards, Following this, they are
fingerprinted. Next they go to
a dressing room in the Medical
Bureau and after disrobing, enter
the examining room. Their height
is checked and any man who is
less than five feet, five inches ia
rejected at this stage.

Hearing, with each ear testee
separately, is next on the prow
gram. Then teeth are examined,
For the eye test, candidates must
register 20/20, or normal, with
eyeglasses permitted. Color vision
is also tested at this time,

With these preliminaries over,
the candidates line up in groups
of 24 and are given a thorough
going-over for their physical
condition,

After this is finished, the men
leave the examining room and
they are given cards which show
whether they passed or failed.

Don’t Buy Jobs!

'N a recent issue, The Leader condemned a Georgia
politician for indulging in one of the lowest of all
rackets—selling public jobs. We said then, “It’s

not enough to sit back smugly and say ‘It can't happen
in New York,’ Such rackets can, and do, operate any-
where.”

Last week, a bizarre gentleman who goes by the name
of Edward J, OConnor had his career abruptly ended by
New York's courts. His offense, too, was selling jobs,
And his racket was, if possible, even scummier than that
of the Georgia politician, for he couldn't deliver. Scores
of men and women had paid Mr, O'Connor substantial
sums—from $100 to $600—for his bland promises to hand
over Civil Service jobs—police jobs, fire jobs, clerk, in-
spector, and others,

Don't be fooled by anyone who tells you he can get
you on the Ciyil Service payroll, That man is a phony,
however sincere he may sound. Any money you pay
out on the strength of such a promise will be gone
with the wind.

It was precisely to end such evils that the merit system
was instituted. And the merit system works!

Orchids to Burkard

OSEPH BURKARD, president of the Patrolman’s
J Benevolent Association will come up for reelection

next week, The Leader is confident that the
PBA delegates, in view of Burkard’s successful record
as head of the Association, will renominate and reelect
him, Under Burkard’s progressive leadership the PBA
has made many forward strides for the benefit of the
whole uniformed force in New York City.

You've got to know.”

James E.
Rossell

ing, and to talk with him you
wouldn’t know he'd worked
in 40 of these 48 United States,

Right now he's district manager
for the biggest Federal Civil Ser-
vice district in the country, and
from his offices in the Federal
Building at Christopher Street he
directs the work of examining
hundreds of thousands of New
Yorkers every year.

That's a tremendous job, when
you stop to think about it. In a
single exam, the Customs Inves-
tigator, he saw that 103,000 ap-
Plications were issued.

Rossell came to his present post
well-qualified. He had just fin-
ished a term as Assistant District
Manager in the Chicago area. Be-
fore this, as Field Examiner, he
travelled over the country making
investigations for the Federal Civil
Service Commission, If you'll check
over his record carefully, you'll
discover that he actually was the
New York district manager a cou-
ple of times before. Of course,
these weren't what you'd call of-
ficial, since he was only “acting”
manager, and the periods weren't
much more than a week apiece,

Career

Not everyone knows that some-
time or other in his life, Rossel
has been a soldier, student, teach-
er, newspaperman, investigator,
administrator, and—don't forget—
fisherman,

As a soldier, Sergeant Rossell
saw action, a year of real war, His
Division in France took part in
three major engagements,

As a student he took high
honors at the University of Ari-
zona, where he was Junior Scholar
and Senior Scholar

J AMES E, ROSSEL is unassum.

His teaching career was cut
short by Civil Service, and he left
his position as acting high school
principal to become a Field Ex-
aminer, While working for the
government, he went to Denver
University on the side and wrote
several papers on sociological sub-
jects including Criminology. His
studies there made him a firm be-
lever in rehabilitation of former
criminals, and he is proud that the
Federal government has taken
cognizance of this problem.

As an administrator, Rossell re-
members what he learned in the
army: carry out orders, That's
why the Washington office can
rely on the New York office al-
ways to do an efficient job.

You'd think that a man who
has officially interviewed hundreds
of applicants for Government ser-
vice would know something about
human nature. Rossell does, and
what he has learned is that it is
rare indeed to find a man who
may relate his experiences pre-
cisely. For instance, ask him how
to secure exact information re-
garding an applicant's former ac-
tivities. His reply:

“There's only one way to find
out what @ man has really ac-
complished—investigate him. The
oral interview will never take the
place of an inyestigation. You
cannot build safely on first im-
pression.”

However, there are some things
that just can’t be investigated, For
instance that story James Rossell
tells about the 46 trout he pulled
out of an Oregon river in 20 min-
utes. What's more, and don’t you
believe it, every fish was bigger
than the one he had just pulled in.

Do Investigators Work Too Hard?

Sirs:

During my
period in the Welfare Department
it was difficult to discover the rea-
son for the almost unanimous opin-
fon among investigators that the
only tle that bound them to their
work was the semi-monthly salary
check, Now that I have been in
the work two months, I can un-
derstand the attitude,

It is largely based on the follow-
Ing facts: (1) Caseloads are too
heavy, making close contact with
relief recipients well-nigh imposs-
thle, As far back as 1935 I note
that the Mayor's Committee Inves-
tigating Relief noted that with a
smaller caseload the city could
gave $900,000 a month through
cleansing of incligibles and guiding
eligibles to positions where they
could be self-sustaining. (2) The
Investugutors are doing too much
work which by rights should be as-
signed elsewhere, There are too
many clerical forms that should be
assigned to the clerical staff, and
too much medical work that by
rights should fall upon the medical
staff greatly enlarged, (3) De-
mands are made of investigators
which are impossible to fulfill be-
cause of time limitation,

I would recommend the follow-”

honeymoon ing:

(1) A committee of workers’
representatives and representatives
of the department be set up to de-
fine the investigator's work, (2)
The same committee should make
a study of an investigator's month-
ly work, and on the assumption of
reasonable efficiency on his part,
set up standards of work to be ex-
pected from the average worker,
(3) A maximum of 50 cases should
be carried by any one worker, If
circumstances dictate iaore cases,
then he should be excused from
making pending investigations or
ifications,

Lo,

Welfare Department Replies

Sirs: It would indeed be shock-
ing if it were true that the “new
investigator” who wrote the above
letter represented the attitude of
the staff of investigators in the
Department of Welfare, when he
states that it is ‘the almost una-
nimous opinion among investiga-
tors that the only tie that bound
them to their work was the semi-
monthly salary check.” There is
no question, however, that this
statement does not represent the
view of the capable and loyal staff.

The recommendations of the
new mvestigator” that a study

be made of the contents of the
investigator's job and that the
clerical functions performed by
the investigators be reviewed, are
matters which have already been
subject to detailed study.

The following excerpt from the
report of the Department of In-
vestigation includes their conclu-
sions with respect to the possibili-
ty of reducing the amount of cler-
ical work performed by the m-
vestigators;

“It has been repeatedly asserted
by investigators of the Depart-
ment of Welfare that there are
too many forms, records and re-
ports to be filled out by the inves-
tigator and that their number
should be reduced, Unfortunately,
no system of caring for 600,000
destitute people could long func-
tion efficiently which did not keep
adequate records concerning each
person on the rolls.

“From time to time, the sugges-
tion has been made by the em-
ployees of the Department of
Welfare that the investigator be
reueved of most of fis clerical
work so that he may devote the
major part of his time to active
filled investigation. While it is
true that some forms may be filled
in by clerks, most forms cannot
be so handled since a proper fill-

img-in requires the intimate
knowledge of the facts of each
case—a knowledge possessed only
by the investigator.”

The advisability of a smaller
caseload was also considered in
the course of his study:

“This (the reduction of case-
loads per investigator) would in-
volve an added expense for sala-
ries Of additional emptoyees sor
some time, Whether the added
expense would be justified by the
saving that could be effected by
jurther reduction of the number
of persons receiving relief, is prob-
lematical. It can be determined
only by conducting a properly con-
trolled experiment of reducing the
caseloads of every investigator in
one district office and comparing
the results of their work, over a
period of at least six months, with
the work of investigators in other
district offices,”

This recommendation will be
given consideration, However, it
is a matter of common knowledge
that investigators in the home re-
lief division of the Department of
Welfare have the smallest case-
loads of any city in the country,

instrumental in reducing the

Incidentally, Burkard was re«

In April, 1937 a Patrolman

named Barrett resigned from the
force. Recently he brought action
against Commissioner Valentine
for reinstatement, In his action
Barrett contends that his resigna-
tion was invalid because he was
insane at the time it was made
and that after his mental condi-
tion cleared up he asked for, and
was denied, reinstatement, Bar-
rett first wrote the Mayor in
1938, within the year allotted for
reinstatement, to reconsider his
resignation; and then recently
asked Commissioner Valentine to
rescind his action. However, the
court denied Barrett's plea for a
review of his resignation.

An important new policy in
Police and Fire promotion exams

has just been adopted by the
Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission and is reported exclu-
sively by this column, In the
past, candidates who were ill
from causes not service-con-
nected, at the time the exams
were given, were not permitted
to take special tests later, Re-
cently Sergeant Louis Siff, and
several others, protested this
ruling. Paul J. Kern, president
of the Municipal Civil Service
Commission, has had these pro-
tests under consideration for
several weeks,

The new resolution provides
that “candidates in the promo-
tion examination for Lieutenant,
Police Department (or Fire De-
partment) who, by order of the
Police Surgeon, were confined
to their homes or hospitalized
on the date of the examination
and who were in fact physically
unable to participate in the ex-
amination, shall be accorded a
special examination.”

In explaining its adoption of
this new policy, the Commission
pointed out that the Police Sur~
geon is @ superior officer, and
that if he orders a Sergeant to
remain at home, the Sergeant
has no choice but to obey, This
policy will be made retroactive
to the recent exams for Police
and Fire Lieutenants; and will
apply in future promotion tests,

Dr, S, B, Wortis, a member of
the Municipal Civil Service Com~
mission's medical staff, was made
an honorary Police Surgeon last
week by Police Commissioner
Lewis Valentine. Dr, Wortis, who's

‘The disputed pension allowances

23, will be decided by a jury
trial, This was the decision of
Supreme Court Justice Peter
Schmuck last week, In the mean-
time, the five men will receive
half-pay allowances. In_ his
ruling, Justice Schmuck said: “It
is not the intention of the court
to foreclose petitioners from prov-
ing that the amount of their pen-
sions is the result of a sound ex-
ercise of discretion by the com-
missioner and that the charges of
favoritism and breach of trust are
unwarranted. It is particularly

such—that discrimination and

week, Since the list is so small
at present, a new exam for this

A bill to have the division of
fire prevention included as a part
of the Fire Department was in-
troduced in the City Council last
week, Provisions of the proposed
legislation would place the division
in charge of an officer above the

would act to prevent fires and its
officials and men would have the
powers of peace officers,

ho Fixes Your Salary?

You've often wondered, haven’t you, how your salary

is determined? Who decided what you should get? Why

increases don’t come more frequently? It’s a more com-

plicated process than you think. Here's the inside story
of how your salary is made

fix the salary of his subordinates.

15. There is no “vested right” to a
fixed or continuing salary in any em-
ployee, except in the case of salaries fixed
by law.

16. The fact that provision is made in
the budget for a particular position, either

an old position or a newly created one,
doesn’t mean that the head of depart
ment need continue the old position, or
fill the new one, He 1s the sole judge
of the necessity for the position; and he
may discontinue the position at any
time,

No Civil Service
For Emergency Workers

More than 50,000 Federal employees
paid from emergency relief funds are
becoming pretty discouraged over the
Prospects of congressional action that
would permit them to be covered into
Civil Service,

The House Appropriation Committee is
due to report the 1941 emergency relief
bill momentarily and inside word is that
it will carry a rider which will prevent
emergency employees from being brought
under Civil Service. A non-Civil Service
Provision was carried in the emergency
relief measure last year, but it had been
anticipated that the rider would be strick-
en out this year in view of the House's ap-
proval of the Ramspeck bill that would
give the President authority to extend
Civil Service to some 150,000 additional
Jobs,

To continue the rider in the 1941
emergency relief bill would be partly
inconsistent, In approving the Ram=
speck bill, the House specifically ex-
empted the 25,000 WPA administrative
employees, but it was taken for granted
that the House approved the bringing
into Civil Service of some 30,000 other
employees paid from emergency funds.

Meantime, the Ramspeck bill continues
to soak up dust at the Senate Civil Ser-
vice Committee. Chairman Bulow faith-
fully promises all callers that the bill will
be reported out in some form before Con
gress adjourns,

The general feeling is that Bulow
would hamstring the entire works if he
was given half a chance, The South
Dakota senator for example, has indi-
cated a desire to re-write the entire bill
so as to take away all authority to ex-
tend Civil Service from the President,
He says it is the responsibility of Con-
gress to extend Civil Service.

Which is all right in theory, but job-
hungry congressmen just never extend
Civil Service. The great mass of employ-
ees brought under Civil Service have been
placed there by presidents, both Repub-
lican and Democrat,

Bulow also would rule out all employs
ees paid from emergency funds, However,
he'll have some committee opposition to
his views, Senator James Mead of New
York, for one, and Senator Neely of West
Virginia for another,

Lay Inspector List

RADES in the Assistant Lay In-

spector test and the Student Aid

examination have been mailed to
all participants by the U. S. Civil Ser-
vice Commission.

In the Assistant Lay Inspector exam-
ination, 9,640 of the 21,678 participants
received passing marks and 4,881 of the
6,300 persons who took the Student Aid
test were qualified.

‘The Department of Agriculture already
has begun to use both registers. Agricul-
ture officials predict the inspector regis-
ter will last three years. Lay inspectors
examine livestock and meat in packing
houses.

Agriculture would have been able to
use the Student Aid register more free-
ly this summer had the register been
set up several weeks earlier, Neverthe-
less, several hundred will be called to
work during the summer,

The Forest Service uses the register
for men to make surveys, man fire tow-
ers, and the like during summer months.
The Bureau of Public Roads, recently
moved from agriculture to the Federal
Works Agency, gets young engineers from
the engineering aid register to make sur-
veys,

Man Minus Job

A heart-rending story is told at the
U.S, Civil Service Commission about a
young New Yorker who last week was
separated from his job as a railway
mail clerk,

The clerk, t seems, was born in
Glasgow, Scotland, and he was brought
to America by his parents when an in-
fant, His parents subsequently became
naturalized American citizens,

Some months ago the young man pass-
ed a Civil Service test for railway mail
clerk following which he received an ap-
pointment, His birth certificate was re-
quired and when he received a copy of it
from Glasgow he got his first shock;
the New Yorker learned for the first time
that he was an adopted child.

‘The law requires railway mail clerks to
be U. 8, citizens and for some unexplain-
ed reason it appears that an adopted
child doesn’t automatically become a citi-
zen of this country when the foster par-
ents become naturalized,

By W, Earl Weller

countiés, towns, villages, school districts,
and special districts’ were selected for
study, The various positions in these
units were discussed and placed in the
particular classification of the service to
which they seemed most logically to be-
long. These allocations were followed by
the research staff in completing the sum~
maries of positions not now under Civil
Service which are contained in the pre-
liminary report.

With the information ayailable, two
tables were prepared for that report,
Table I was an estimate of the extent of
public employment in all the political
subdivisions of New York, This was ar-
rived at by taking the percentage of pub-
lie employment in Hamilton and Scho-
harie counties combined, and applying it
to the aggregate population of those
counties of the State having no cities;
and by taking the percentage of public
employment in Broome and Monroe
counties combined, and applying it to the
population of all counties of the State
having cities.

The sum of the two figures (391,376)
is given as the total estimated public em-
ployment within the State. This is equi-
valent to 3.10 per cent of the total popu-
lation of the State.

Table II is an attempt to predict the
number of positions in all of the political

subdivisions of the State falling within
the various recognized categories of Civil
Service, These estimates were made by
taking the percentages of the various
classes, as found in Broome, Hamilton,
Monroe, and Schoharie counties com=
bined, and applying these percentages
to the estimate of total employment with-
in all of the political subdivisions of the
State, as given in table I.

By using the above method, it is esti-
mated that out of the grand total of 391,~
217 positions, 129,349 or 33.05 per cent
will fall in the unclassified group, and
261,868 or 66.94 per cent in the classified

group. Of those in the classified group, -

14,285 or 5.45 per cent will fall in the
exempt; 88,294 or 33,71 per cent in the
competitive; 26,378 or 10.07 per cent in
the non-competitive group; and 132,911
or 50.75 per cent in the labor class.

These estimates are based on incom-
plete data and on census figures that are
10: years old, They are submitted merely
as tentative figures.

Briefly summarized, the findings of the
survey, to date, show an.estimated total of
about 391,000 public officers and employ-
ees in the local governmenta] units of
the State. Of this number, about 262,000
will fall within the classified Civil Ser-
vice as now understood. Of this last fig-
ure, approximately 90,000 are now or will

ormation

probably be placedim the competitive
class.

The research staff is about to begin its
Personal interviewing of public officials
in the political subdivisions of Chautau-
qua, St, Lawrence, Suffolk, and West-
chester counties, This work will probe
ably take up about three months, When
completed, the information gathered will
be used in revising the estimates of pub-
ic employment in New York State, ag
made in the preliminary report. These
final estimates will. be-predicated upon
@ much broader bast®-and. will be more
truly representative of the types of pub-
He employment in the governmental units
of the State.

About 60 per cent of the questionnaires
sent to the various subdivisions of the

@ remarkable showing and is clearly in-
dicative of the interest on the-part of
Public officials in the study, and also
their willingness to cooperate in the pro-
secution of a task which involves. ardu-

‘This work will be done immediately upon
completion of the field work in the re-

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Tuesday May 7, 1949

Question, Please?

by H. ELIOT KAPLAN
CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

BACKGROUND ACCEPTED
ON CERTIFICATION

J, L—If you have been certified for
appointment, it is quite certain that your
educational, experience and _ residence
qualifications have been accepted by the
Civil Service Commission,

J. A—When a person resigns from a
Job during his probationary period, he
may have his name replaced on the elig-
ible list for future appointment. If you
were appointed to a department which
comes under the provisions of the Lyons
Tesidence Law and were dropped for non-
residence, you may be recertified to a
department that does nob come under
the law, or you may be reinstated to your
former job.

TRANSFERS

J, T. D.—An employee already serving
in the city service may be transferred to
& similar position in any other depart-
‘ment without regard to the Lyons Resi-
“dence Law, The Earle bill to amend the
Lyons law hasn't been acted upon by
the City Council. A person who has been
Placed on an eligible list and who is not
® resident may remain on the list until
he meets the residence requirements.

AND TRANSFERS

8. S.—Ordinarily employees serving
their probationary period can’t be trans-
ferred to other city departments. After
the six-month’s period is ended, however,
they may be transferred. They have to

receive permission from their own de-
partment head, the department head to
which they seek transfer, and finally, the
Civil Service Commision,

SICK LEAVE

C. N.—Sick leave may be granted at
any time by the department head; but
generally it is not given to employees in
their probationary period. Temporary
employees also are denied sick leaves in
most cases,

SOCIAL SECURITY FOR SUBWAY MEN

P. 8. B.—After unification, employees
who gain a Civil Service status will not
have to contribute Social Security pay-
ments. You will probably become eligible
for the city retirement fund, or be per-
mitted to continue in the old company
Pension setup. However, you will not be
Permitted to continue in both systems.

SEASONAL APPOINTMENTS

S. G.—Seasonal employees such as Play-
ground Directors, Life Guards, etc., as a
rule may be reappointed from year to
year without further examination. How-
ever, the Commission may re-examine Life
Guards to find out if they are still fit
for the work. Persons appointed from
lists for seasonal employment aren’t elig-
ible for permanent jobs.

CUSTOMS INSPECTOR

P. I. S.—Few appointments are made
from the original list for Customs In-
spector (federal service). Those that are
made are generally for upstate jobs. The
list is used for Customs Guard jobs.

SALARY INCREASE

T, F.—When a salary is increased be-
yond the maximum allowed for a certain
grade, this increase is considered a pro-
motion. Before such an increase can be
paid, & promotion test must be given.
An actual promotion can only be made
when an employee is certified from an
existing eligible list.

*AcCARTHY INCREMENTS

J. R.—The McCarthy salary increment
law will apply to those positions in the
city labor class which are tran@erred by
the Municipal Civil Service Commission
to the Competitive class. All jobs with
an entrance salary of less than $1,800
will come under the law's provisions.

LABOR CLASS APPOINTMENTS

J. T. 8.—The position of Porter is in
the labor class and appointments are
made in regular order from a labor reg-
ister. The chances are that there will
not be another labor list established for
some time, since the Commission is now
attempting to abolish labor jobs, and put
all positions in the competitive class.

PORTER ELIGIBLE LIST

B. C.—The Municipal Civil Service
Commission cannot use the present Porter
eligible list for competitive jobs, But the
list undoubtedly will be used for other
labor positions until all labor jobs are
put in the competitive class. However,

CIVIL SERVICE

Key to the Commission

Public officials, the City Council, and
the local courts in Saratoga Springs have
ganged up on the Municipal Civil Service
Commission at various times in recent
years, Now al: the difficulties are sup-
posed to be on their way out. Last week
Miss Catherine A, Shanahan, senior mu-
nicipal research assistant for the State
Commission, launched an investigation of
local Civil Service matters. She asked

“Yor a key to the Commission “so that I
may work without interruption or delay”
—and got it. Secretary Merritt C. Cole
reported himself in favor of the inspec-
tion. “It’s the best thing that has been
done for municipal Civil Service in
years,” he enthused.

Not Too Old

William H, Edson, deputy county clerk
in charge of naturalization in Pough-
keepsie will be 70 on Wednesday. The
best present he could have gotten came
last week from the State Civil Service

Commission: a two-year extension of ser-
vice. Edson was examined by a doctor,
who found him fit to continue the duties
he's been handling for 20 years; the doc-
tor's certificate was approved by the State
Commission, the state pension board, the
medical board of the State Retirement
System,

Parking Meters
Bronxville is to install parking meters
some time this month, That means ex-
tra money to the city, also an extra
'atrolman in the Police Department. An
tem calling for a salary of $1,940 has
on added to the 1940-41 budget, which
oes into effect June 1. The chap who
ls the item will spend his time patrol-
the business areas to check on park-
ing violators,

Missing

Some weeks ago, Binghamton’s Wel-
fare Commissioner Harry Trent says that
he delivered a letter to the local Civil
Service Commissioner. The Commission
has never found the letter, it alleges;
the matter is now referred to as “Trent's

Missing Letter Mystery.” This week @
sequel developed, The Civil Service Com-
mission has been asked to file some pa-
pers concerning the payroll of city em-
ployee Herbert A. Curtiss. Members have
looked high and low, now claim that
unsigned payrolls covering Curtiss’ ser-
vices are nowhere to be found,

Promotion Only

Yonkers’ merit system got another boost
this week from City Manager Raymond
P, Whitney. Edward G. McAnaney has
just retired from the $6,200 Title Exam-
iner job. Whitney was asked what will
be done with the post. Filled by pro-
motion exam, was his direct answer. And
in the future, he continued, jobs under
Civil Service will be filled only by pro-
motion, while he will try to do the same
thing with jobs outside Civil Service
classification, In this way, explains
Whitney, the public payroll will stay con-
stant, yet daserving employees are to
be rewarded.

Banquet

August 1-3 have been set as the days for
the second annual convention of the New
York State Highway Employees’ Associa
tion. Three thousand guests are expected,
according to general chairman James Lo-
gan, of Hyde Park. That's 1,000 more
than attended the first convention last
year at Binghamton. A banquet on the
Jast of the three days will wind up the
festivities,

NEWS BRIEFS

Coming State Exams
The State law says that titles of
open competitive lists requested by de-
partments or institutions must be pub-
licly announced for 15 days before the

State Commission takes action, The
Following lists are now being advertised

(the date denotes when the 15 days are
up):

May 8—Division of Laboratories and
Research—Assistant Laboratory Worker.

May 8—Executive Department, Division
of Parole, Wallkill Prison—Assistant
Stenographer.

May 10—Hamilton County Board of
Supervisors—Sealer of Weights and
Measures.

May 10—Village of Ossining—Operator,
Sewage Treatment Plant.

May 10—Conservation Department—
Supervisor of Stream Improvement.

May 15—Kings County—Stenographer
and Private Secretary.

May 17—Niagara County—Stenogra-
pher-Clerk,

What's the Reason?

Lewis G. Raymond left the Saratoga
Springs Fire Department on November
14, 1935. There are varying interpreta-
tions of why he did so, Raymond him-
self tells an interesting tale: a teetotaler,

(im

li

he took his first drink, boarded a bus,
woke up in New York City. So startled
was he by it all that he didn’t return
to the firehouse until eight days. later.
Local officials have another version; they
say that he “abandoned, resigned, and
quit” his job, The courts will determine
the correct version.

Toll of Toll Collectors

mission must decide whether @ job 1s ac.
tually permanent or temporary. suo.
cessive temporary appointments are pro.
hibited, After it is proven that a job

is a permanent one, the Commission mist
make permanent certifications,

NOTICE TO ELIGIBLES

C, F, C.—I agree with you that in fair.
ness city departments should give people
at least a week's notice in offering them
Positions so that they can notify their
private employers. Most departments try
to maintain good public relations by foij-
lowing such a policy. Some apparently
aren't so considerate.

ONE MONTH FOR APPEALS

F, S. L.—The Municipal Civil Service
Commission allows a period of one month
for claims of manifest errors in the rating
of papers; after that time, it will not
consider additional appeals.

Parkway, 17 Toll Collectors lost thelr
jobs. They've since sued to be given
mandatory reinstatement in similar jobs,
Last week their applications were de-
nied; the court ruled that they were
taken from the Parkway Patrolman list

Or
eas

for temporary work only, pending the
outcome of litigation. If tolls are
be permanent, said the court, special ex-
ams should be held and an eligible list
for Toll Collector prepared.

Distaff Anniversary

It’s just 20 years ago that women fin-
ally got the ballot. In recognition Miss
Grace A. Reavy, president of the Stale
Civil Service Commision, noted that wo"
men are getting appointive posts, but still
find elective jobs eluding them. S!é
explained: “Women are not being nou
inated, except for minor positions, be:
cause men won't let them be nominate
—they want the jobs.”

be promulgated until city departments have an opportunity to
make appointments from the existing promotion list. Commis-

pass before it is promulgated.

positions of Junior, Assistant, and
Senior Clerks in the Division. The
Budget Director appropriated
funds for the Assistant Clerk posi-
tions on a three-month basis, Eli-
gibles on the middle and lower
ends of the Assistant list inherited
most of the jobs; those on the top
generally refused for insecurity or
insufficient salary,

When six months had elapsed,
Junior Clerks began to clamor for
a promotion exam to the Assistant
Position; the law, they argued, re-
quires promotional exams where-
ever feasible. The Commission
called for the exam, then post-
poned it when those on the As-
sistant Clerk list protested. A pub-
lic hearing was held in Albany
three weeks ago; the Commission's
ruling was the result.

Future positions, the Commis-
sion holds, must be filled on a per-
manent basis. It insists that when-
ever a list of eligibles especially
trained for a position exists, that
list. must be used despite the
career-system idea.

Remarked Commissioner How-
ard P, Jones:

“Except where knowledge or
competence acquired on the job is
important, I favor the open com~-
petitive over the promotional
exam. This insures the greatest

acclamation for the Leader's “con-
tinued cooperation in assisting our
