The Civil Service LEADER'S
“Message to the Mayor,” « daily
morning radio program, began this
week, on Monday, March 29. The
program, first of its kind, consists]
of a capsule interview — a question
With a one-minute answer.

The program is part of the Tex

McCrary-Jinx Palkenburg show,
which is on the air dally between
6:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. over radio
station WNEC.

Guests include men and women
ef distinction in their fields, The
Program is designed to develop

ideas, offer suggestions and critt-
stems, and provide thinking -sparks

While
primarily directed to New York
City, the material is such as to be
of interest to municipalities every-
where.

Important for Civil Servants

Much of the data developed on
the program will have importance
for civil service employees; their
problems will be aired and their
suggestions offered not only to
public officials, but to the largest
listening audience of any morning
interview program.

ALBANY, March 29 — Eleven
salary bills headed the list of some
30 Civil Service measures that
signa-
ture at the lay bill
period, a survey by The LEADER
disclosed.

‘The salary bills, all of which are
slated to be signed, include six
emergency pay measures and five
new proposals to increase the pay
of classified State workers, depart-
ment heads, and those in non-
statutory as well as legislative and
judicial jobs,

Classifying Begins

Even before the Governor's sig-
nature was announced, it was re-
ported the State Division of Class!-
fication and Compensation had be-
gun the gigantic task of reclassi-
fying and reallocating the state’s
2,000-odd job titles, Each individ-
ual title is to be examined and con-
verted from the present salary
plan to the new 38-grade structure.

The recommendations in each

case, it was learned, will be pre-
sented to the Advisory Board,
headed by Joseph Ronan, for
study. The next step will be the
approval of the State Budget Di-
rector.

Nine Retirement Bills

Nine retirement bills are before
the Governor, with all but one cer-
tain of becoming law or already
signed as The LEADER went to
press,

Those signed include the Sava-
rese bill to permit a member of the
Retirement System to make addi-
tional contributions for purchas-
ing additional annuity through
July 1, 1955, and a new bill that
provides for optional payment of
contributions in the Retirement
‘System in the case of death before
an option has been selected.

This second measure plugs a
loophole im the present law by
which the accumulated contribu-
tions of a member have been lost
to beneficiaries through sudden
death.

To Act on Civil Service Bills

One measure, sponsored by As-
semblyman Louis F. Folmer, Cort-
land County Republican, is before
the Governor, but is reported like-
ly to be disapproved. The bill ex-
empts from mandatory member-
ship in the State Retirement Sys-
tem those employees who earn less
than $1,000 a year. The proposal
may be turned over to the newly
appointed State Pension Commi:
ston for further study.

A bill giving volunteer firemen
extra credit in Civil Service ex-
aminations is before the Governor.
Another bill ready for signature
would authorize municipalities te
pay additional retirement contri-
butions for firemen and policemea
for added benefits.

State and local employees whe
retired between Jan. 1, 1953 and
Jan, 1, 1954 will be eligible for the
State’s supplemental pension un-
der terms of another bill awaiting
Mr. Dewey's signature.

The Governor has until April 10
to act on the bills,

Attractive Work Conditions

In terms of recruitment the poe
sibilities of making working com
ditions more attractive were dis-
cussed. Dr, Bigelow agreed that
desirable living quarters, recrea-
tional programs, and facilities for
entertaining and other home activi-
ties would not only help to recruit
new employees, but should be pro-
vided insofar as possible to make
institution living more attractive
for all resident employees. It was
pointed out that in most institu-
tions these provisions have already
been made,

The question of incentives was
also given serious consideration,
the Commissioner evineing deep
interest in measures to stimulate
self-improvement and advancement.

The committee reported a widely
felt need for personnel officers im
the institutions, Dr. Bigelow indi-
cated he was very much in sym-
pathy with this request,

The employees also uested
some improvement of procedure im
transmitting to employees infor-
mation on department directives
that affect them, such as the recent
change in sick leave regulations.

A problem brought up by the
committee was that of employees
working out of title, chiefly attend-
ants working in other than ward
ervices, Dr,
contemplated measures as the early
provision of additional mainte-
nance jobs will help to alleviate
this situation.

Looking Inside |

By H. J. BERN.

—

THE FACT civil service administration has grown too rigid is
@ttracting important attention, The next few years are likely to see a
@trong trend away from narrow confines.

Much greater leeway now exists than is exercised by Civil Service
Commissions. As a rule such Commissions have not established lus-
trous reputations, They have tried to play safe, and keep out of
trouble, rather than accomplish anything. The limits within which |
@ourageous discretion could be exercised have been ignored. What
the law did not prevent them from doing, they often prevented
themselves from doing. Thus we have been treated to much medi-
ecrity in civil service administration, It could have been avoided by |
making better appointments to the Commissions. Nevertheless, the
eombination of legal limitations and refusal to budge within the
existing degree of freedom has produced the condition that evokes
ries for a change.

RD |

GOVERNOR THOMAS E. DEWEY, in his speech at the recent
annual dinner of the Civil Service Employees Association, brought
wp the subject so zestfully as to indicate he will be in the forefront
@f the elasticity movement. Secretary of the Treasury George M.
Humphrey, surveying the Federal scene, finds, as Mr. Dewey noticed
fm State service, restrictions are too rigid.

Civil service, said the Governor, must become less rigid, less
formalized, to permit the best possible use of personnel, and the
Widening of opportunity for appointment and advancement. Secre- |
tary Humphrey, while praising the merit system, complains discipline
fs crippled by rigid restrictions, adding: “Civil service protects the |
incompetent worker too much. It impedes incentive for the good and
penalty for the mediocre.”

THE GOVERNOR implied a specific remedy. For recruitment,
the rigid, excluding standards would have to be abandoned. As The
LEADER has emphasized for the past fifteen years, the minimum
standards are usually a lazy substitute for devising really effective |
enes. The practice of setting harsh minimum requirements tends to |
substitute them for the examination itsellf. So many prospective
eandidates are excluded from exams that one might falsely suspect
Whe object 1s to avoid filling the jobs.

The other side of the picture is not without danger. Adminis-
ators granted more discretion would have greater opportunity of
practicing personal or political favoritism, the evil the merit system
has pretty well cured. But the anwer would be the same as it was
fm the beginning. Appoint higher and higher grade mmissioners
and administrators of civil rvice, A few of the greats and near-
greats would be included. Civil service administration already shows
signs of escaping from the predicament of being the orphan child |
ef government. The day should come, and come soon, when it at-
fwacts more genius than it now scares away.

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS that prove too stiff to be of any
walue should be discarded. Resultant eligible lists are too small, too
many eligibles decline appointment, too many appointees don't stay.
‘This calls for at least a broader base of recruitment.

NYC holds a social investigator exam every year, A list is now in
@zistence, and another exam is soon to be held. There are about
'%60 provisionals in the title in the Welfare Department. Obviously
® sufficient number of eligibles or acceptances or stayers can not |
be obtained. The last list consisted of 1,300. A new certification has}
fone forth; up to that time, 168 were appointed, but 298 declined, |
@r, roughly, there were two declinations for every acceptance,

Next time NYC might try broadening the base of recruitment, by
Jetting up considerably on the minimum requirements. The job ts a/|
tough one, The ability to “take it” counts more than the exam, |
fm reality, and the exam does not test for that. Besides, a training
@ourse precedes actual feild assignment. What about the many thou-
sands of dollars wasted in training employees who find private in-
dustry will pay them much more, in less onerous jobs? When a
recruiting method simply makes a stop-gap out of what should be
& government career job, the time for easing up on the minimum
Fequirements, and even on the exam itself, has arrived

THE CIVIL SERVICE
EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION
SERVES

The Association has substantial-
ly benefited every State employee
as to salaries, work hours, vaca-
tions, retirement, leaves, improve-
ment of civil service law, rules and
regulations and work conditions
generally, It serves its members in
any valuable ways. It asks your
membership support.

At the request of its members
the Association arranged for them
low cost group life insurance, and
accident and sickness insurance
by payrolt deductions,

Now the Association has ar-
ranged payroll deductions for Blue
Cross-Blue Shield for State em-
ployees because:

1, A greater number will be able
to further protect themselves and
their families.

2. It will save for thousands of
State employees the difference be-
tween direct payment rates they
are now paying and lower payroll
deduction rates they will be given.

3. To make payment easier and
more business-like and thus re-
duce Instances of loss of protec-
tion due to non-payment.

‘The accounting and other work
necessary to make payroll deduc-
tions available for Blue Cross-Blue
Shield could not be underwritten

in itself by the small 3-cent semi- |

monthly service charge referred

to herein. The Association will
combine this work with the sys-
tem it already operates for its
Group Life Insurance and Acci-
dent and Health Insurance,

The Association is confident that
ALL State employees who take
advantage of the Payroll Deduc-
tion System for Blue Cross-Blue
Shield will express their apprecia-
tion by being members of the As-

The Unhappy
Pay Raise
T presstime, NYC Mayor Wagner had offered to City

Pu croyei a package pay plan that would give them
from $125 to $250 annual pay raise, plus the promise of a

awift classification, and 40 percent adjustment of any dif-

ferential resulting from the classification.

To say that this is too little is to say only the obvious.
‘And even to gain this, the Mayor proposes the imposition
of new and onerous sales taxes, on top of those already
existing. The employees are placed — again — in the in-

sufferable position of seeming to be the cause of these un-

popular taxes.

The Mayor said last week that the City has obligation
to see that employees “are paid a wage sufficient to in-
sure them a livelihood from their city employment, and
that they are not forced into the position of impairing their
efficiency by outside employment.” Then, added Mr. Wag-
ner, this is a goal that cannot be met.

What's to be done in this impasse? Mr. Wagner has
asked the employees to accept “half a loaf.” Two of the
employee organizations have accorded, the others nave
objected, as this is written, in various degrees of opposi-
tion. No one is happy.

Certainly a modern classification and pay plan would
have helped, were it in existence, It is The LEADER’s
frank opinion that the present work on classification is pro-
ceeding not only slowly but bumblingly. When it is through

then a pay plan has to be developed .There is only the most

meagre staff to do a real job setting up a correct pay
structure.

Moreover, the City administration ought to realize
that certain groupings of employees are so far behind the
8-ball that it is improper to wait until a classification study

is finished in order to rectify their difficulties. It isn’t) bul

enough to give big salary increases to commissioners, how-
ever much deserved. It is perhaps much more important to
see to it that various down graded groups, among them
civil service examiners, engineers, welfare investigators,
patrolmen, are brought forward to adequate pay. The kind
of pay increase now envisioned does little for the groups
that have been consistently underpaid.

Too, the Mayor and his advisers must learn to talk
things out with the employees; and to do this as much in
advance of the event as possible. First, such a step will

give the employees a greater appreciation of the Mayor's

own problems; secondly, employee points of view—and
their suggestions — can be consistently helpful.

For Correction
Men—RIO or RII?

MPLOYEES of the State Correction Department point

out that under the new State pay plan, they may be
converted into a grade roughly the equivalent of the one
they now hold having even a lower entrance salary; or into
the next higher grade, Since there was so strong a doubt
ven the minds of the State researchers that the lower
grade should prevail, clearly the Correction men deserve

the benefit of the doubt, Moreover, in other States the im-

portance of a solid corps of correction officers is being
rapidly recognized, In New Jersey, for example, the sala-
ries of these are being brought substantially upward,
The present G-10 grade ought, at the very least, be con-
werted into R-11 under the new plan for the correction
men.

dim the general enthusiasm. The
civic organizations chided Wagner,
as if to say, “Tsk, tsk, tsk! We'll
excuse you this time, but don’t do
it again!”

Appointments Well Received

With the exception of Justice
Impellitteri, Mr. Wagner's early
appointments were well received.
Dr. Luther Gulick as City Adminis-
trator, Henry Epstein as Deputy
Mayor—these and others were re-
ceived with plaudits. It was noted
by the cognoscenti there are more
Ph.D’s and Phi Beta Kappa keys
around City Hall than ever before.

Question,
Please

AS I HAVE just become a City
employee, and am a member of the
NYC Employees Retirement -Sys-
tem now, age 55 plan, is there any
way I can figure what my pension
will be if I retire at age 55? P.L.

Answer — No. The retirement
allowance depends on your con-
tributions, your length of service,
and the final average salary. Since
none of these factors is known,
the computation {s impossible, A
\general idea may be obtained,
however, from the terms of the
law. Assuming you are under the
1 percent plan, your penion, the

the number of years’ service multi-
plied by 1 percent of the average
pay of any five consecutive years
you select; the annuity likely
would be a little less, unless you
buy additional annuity, allowable
up to 50 percent in excess of nor-
mal contributions, when the an-
nuity would possibly be more than
the pension, The result could be
retirement at half pay im 25 years
(one-quarter pay as pension from
the City, the other quarter in the
annuity you buy with your own
contributions),

WHAT 1S_ the probationary
riod in NYC? In New York
te? L.P.
Answer — In NYC, six months;
in the State government it varies
somewhat, because of the nature

of employment in certain: institu-
S,

I TOOK a civil service job in
NYC department in 1927. When
I was dismissed, in 1942, I with-
drew all the money I had contri-
ited to the

another NYC department. Can I
pay back to the pension fund the
money I withdrew when I left the
Correction Department and thus
become eligible for a penion now?

‘Answer — No, because you were
dismissed from the first job.

Law Cases

Sidney M, Stern, chairman of
the committee on laws and rules,
has reported to the NYC Civil
Service Commission, his weekly
summary on legal matters as fol-

PROCEEDINGS INSTITUTED:

Zappile et al v, Brennan, Peti-
tioners, alleging error in the rat-
ing of certain items on the writ-
ten test for promotion to sergeant

papers and placement on the eli-
gible list. They likewise have
moved for consolidation of this
proceeding with Convery vy, Bren-
nan involving the same examina-

tion.
JUDICIAL DECISIONS
Special Term

Lamey y. Monaghan, Petition-
er's services as a probationary
atrolman were terminated when
he Civil Service Commission
marked him medically not quali-
fied because of a perforated ear
drum, Under medical regulations
promulgated in 1952, a perforated
ear drum eliminates a candidate.
The Court, however, in ordering
his reinstatement, found that the
1952 regulations were inapplicable
to the petitioner, who took the
1950 exam for this position and
who qualified medically under the
regulations in effect at that time.

Not a single known racketeer pal
was given a political job, Not every
appointment was a great one, but
in the main, it was felt that the
general level was good, Some of the
appointments appeared excellent,
some good, some fair; no one
found any bad apples.

Wagner gave the impression of
being youthful, energetic, buoyant,

ethical standpoint. Also, in
facing the few tough problems that
have confronted him so far, Mr.
Wagner as Mayor has shown plenty
of guts,

achievements are a meagre diet
for a City to feed on over the long

editorials and the plaudits which
greeted Impellitteri's election as an
“independent.” He must recall
when an important NYC daily

in 1949, when O'Dwyer first an-

Poning a difficult decision on the
theory “time takes care of every-
thing.” Wagner is showing him-
self to be a methodical executive.

One group around him urges him
to continue his cautious, unspece
tacular course. These advisers say
that this course has brought him
to the Mayoralty; and if he con-
tinues this way, he isn’t likely te
get in trouble, He'll be able to get
out in time for a jump to statewide
office, Trying to be a “great” man,
they say, will only get him tm
trouble.

A second group argues that
Wagner can only become impor-
tant by trying earnestly to be
“great.”

Only Wagner himself can deter-
mine which direction he'll take.

After the “probation” it remains
te be seen which course will pay
| off — caution or the bold endeavor
to solve problems, Caution by it-
self is either the slower solution
of problems or the postponement
of their solution, The problems
don't go away.

Some Big Problems

What will be done about the
| Puerto Rican situation? Here is an
immigration into the City having
enormous economic, social, cultur-
al and educational implications. It
is impossible to say: Go away,
Problem! It's here. To meet it
Properly, with dignity, humanity,
and results, would be to tread the
path of greatness.

‘What will be done about hous
ing and planning? One has only te
fo out to Queens, to see what an
opportunity the City missed
since the war to plan properly,
‘One has only to look into crowded,
crumbling Manhattan, where the
slums outrace the new buildings,
to see a golden opportunity for the
exercise of greatness,

What will be done about civil
service? Wagner already has his
bin for reorganizing it. Will he
take the path toward greatness —
really reorganize fearlessly and ef-
fectively? Or will he tread the path
of caution — perhaps do a little
bit, perhaps retain deadheads for
the purpose of political expedi-
ency?

What will be done about transit
and traffic? Can the Mayor infuse
transit administrators to treat with
imagination and courage the prob-
lems that require over-all solu-
tions? Or will caution prevail, se
that at the end of four years the
City will be where it is now, er
perhaps only a little ahead?

Thus with all the problems of
government, In caution there are
few risks — except when it comes
time for the payoff. In the urge for
greatness there are risks — but the
Payoff can be high,

Thomas Jefferson was not @
cautious man; Abraham Lincoln
weighed risks, and overthrew caus
tion; Franklin D. Roosevelt was
not a cautious man; he met prob-
Jems, wrestled with them, and took
whatever the consequences brou-
eht. Thomas E. Dewey is not @
cautious man — he takes strong
action where he feels it essential,
Had he been cautious, would he
still be Governor?

Bob Wagner's “probationary”
period will soon be over, He hag

State Finds Cigarettes
Lung Cancer Factor

ALBANY, March 22 — Dr, Mor-
fon L. Levin of the State Health
Department said the weight of
existing evidence indicates that
eigarette smoking is one of the
causes of lung cancer, with the
risk of acquiring the disease in-
creased in proportion to the num-

ber of cigarettes smoked.

In a paper published in the
Journal of the State Medical So-
ciety, Dr, Levin, Assistant Comy
Medical Services,
gaid this conclusion was further
strengthened by a study at Ros-
well Park Memorial Institute, the
State's cancer hospital at Buffalo.
In that study the factors of age,
occupation and place of residence
were equalized and cancelled out
in comparing lung cancer patients

REAL ESTATE.

missioner for

BROOKLYN

with other patients, he explained,
and the relative incidence of lung
cancer for smokers of 20 or more
cigarettes a day was 10 times that
of non-smokers.

Other Factors Enter
Those who smoked less than
one pack a day had five times as
much lung cancer incidence as
non-smokers, Cases of the dis-
ease among pipe and cigar smok-
ers occurred only one-third more
frequently than in non-smokers,
Dr. Levin said these estimates of
excess risk were probably too low
because the smoking histories
were obtained in a routine and a
special study.

The paper, based on a review of
all studies to date and additional
material derived from research
carried on at the Institute, em-
phasized that the evidence does
not indicate smoking is “the sole
causative factor, or even that it is
operative in the absence of other
factors,” such as susceptibility

Effect Double

Doctor Levin noted that in less
than a decade “the chance of
developing lung cancer at some
time during life has more than
doubled among males in New York
State.” Between 1931-33 and 1948-
50, age-adjusted lung cancer mor-
tality increased among males in
New York State by 385 per cent
and among females by 68 per cent,
he said.
