Draft Boarcs Dumb?

Meantime, there is ample evidence
that many local boards don't
understand the meaning of 3-B
classifications—or are deliberately
ignoring War Manpower Selective.
Service instructions about them.

For instance, many draft boards
are flatly refusing to grant 3-
status to family men in agencies
whose work is clearly essential to
the war. That has already hap-
pened to a good many family men

in War Production Board, It is
happening also* in other war
agencies,

Therefore, this should be said
again:

War Manpower Commission and
Selective Service have ruled that
family men (those with depend-
ents) in “essential activity” are
entitled to 3-B status, providing
they do not fall in the list of non-
deferrables.

They have said that “essential
activities’ include ‘Government
services, including services neces-
sary to health, safety, morale, and
the prosecution of the war,"

They have said it is not neces-
sary for draft boards to determine
whether such a,3-A man is a
“necessary,” irreplaceable man--
but merely whether he works in
an “essential” activity,

Any other interpretation is con-
trary to Selective Seryice regula-
tions,

Stop-Gap Pay Plan
May Become Permanent

WASHINGTON. — Possibility
that the stop-gap Federal pay ad-
justm nt act will be extended in
much its present form when it
expires April 30 began to loom
increasingly large here last week-
end.

It is still much too early, of
course, to offer a definite predic-
tion.

There are clear-cut signs, how-
ever, that Congress may decide to
retain the present bill—in prefer-
ence to the substitute measure
put forth by Sen, James Mead
(D., N. ¥.).

Such a proposal was cautiously
advanced by Edgar B. Young of
the Budget Bureau in testimony
before the House Civil Service

SubCommittee at ite hearings last
week on Senator Mead's bill,

light Extend Present Bill

He suggested that the Commit.
tee might possibly want to ex-
tend the present bill for several
months, and, in the meantime,
undertake to draft permanent
legislation, reforming the entire
Federal pay structure, Mr. Young
indicated that such a plan would
meet with Budget Bureau ap-
Proval,

Senator Mead's bill differs in
three important respects from the
present stop-gap act:

1, It provides a full time-and-
one-half for overtime work, in-
stead of the present time-and-one-
quarter,

2. It eliminates the present re-
striction which says that over-
time pay and base salary to-
gether cannot exceed $5,000,

3. It provides a 15 percent
bonus for emproyees who cannot
work oyertime~instead. of the
present 10 per cent.

Oppose 40-Hour Week

At last week’s hearings, there
was ample evidence that the old
issue of the 40-hour week law
will be raised against the Mead

bill, Numerous Congressmen op
pose that law because it forces
industry to pay premium sates
for overtime work, The subject
came up repeatedly at the heat
ings, and more than one observer
thought the 40-hour-week fod
were getting ready to make ;

fight of it.

- WASHINGTON—Despite many
‘yeports to the contrary, the hous-
ing situation in Washington for
jena ee
none too good.

Iy fact, as of Saturday of last
War Housing Center said

ver
it had available only 87 single
rooms for women, And other
sources indicated that even the

s1 were none too good.
‘On the other hand, there is still
stiful. supply of double
rooms. About 3,000 were listed
with the Housing Center at last
reports, And this is a decline of
only about 1,000 from the number
available four months ago.

Want Single Rooms
However, the problem is compli-
cated by the fact that most single
women coming to Washington to
take Government jobs prefer sin-
ge rooms — at least until they

have found a trusted girl com-
panion with whom they can
double up.

It is further complicated by the
fact that householders scem to
have a prejudice, against single
roomers, For some reason, they
list their available rooms as dou-
bles, wherever possible,

War Housing officials are seri-
ously concerned by the situation,
They plan an immediate drive to
persuade Washington home own-
ers to make more single rooms
available.

Meantime, the only real relief
in sight appears to be the im-
pending completion of several
new Government girl dormitories.

Postal Workers Hit on Chin,
Insist They'll Win the Fight

WASHINGTON. — An ominous
battle loomed this week between
postal employees and the admin-
istration, Hopes for a $300 por
year bonus, as proposed in a bill
introduced by Sen, James Mead
(D., N. ¥.) took a hard blow last
wreek—but the postal men came
out oftheir corner with fists
flying.

Presidential Adviser William H.
McReynolds told the House Civil
Service Committee that he would
recommend veto of the $300
bonus bill if it passed.

Moreover, he said he would be
“delighted” to do so.

McReynolds took the position
that all Federal workers should be
treated alike; that the proposed
bonus would be favoritism for
the postal group; that the Ad-
ministration would stand against
any attempt to grant a bonus on
top of overtime pay.

Meantime, Postmaster General
Frank Walker, in a statement is-
sued several days earlier, went on
record with a qualified indorse-
ment of the postal bonus.

Hearings on the bonus bill have
opened before the House Post
Office and Post Roads Commiitee.
There is every indication that it
will report it favorably,

Postal workers won't take the
McReynolds rebuff lying down, A
delegation of postal representa-
tives returning to New York from
Washington this week immediate-
ly set about laying plans for whet
may become the bitterest em-
ployee-government fight in this
generation,

The Big Event

‘The boys all went to Washing-
ton ready to swing words to get
some favorable action on the bills
which would put more cash in
postal pockets,

Until the storm clears it's hard
to tell who's ahead, McReynolds’
statement made the headlines, but
the stories the postal men told
made their mark too, where the
votes count.

Postal delegates pointed out
that their situation differed from

that of other Government em-
ployees. Showed how haphazard
application of the overtime rules
had ruined morale in the depart-
ment, and they found plenty of
support in the most unexpected
places.

Congressmen usually ranked as
conservatives came to bat for the
P. 0. employees,

McKellar, Downey, O'Daniel
Hawkes, were some of the legis-
lators who argued for the
postal benefits, Of these, the

most interesting acquisition of
support is McKellar, a powerful
figure in the Senate,

A committee including New
York delegates met with McKellar
of the Senate Post Roads Commit-
tee. The Committee consisted of
Emanuel Kushelewitz, president
of Branch 36, N.A.L.C.; John
Blend, treasurer Brooklyn Branch
41; Charles Dillon, — president
Branch 41; and Everett Gibson,
president of the Joint Conference
of Postal Employees. They
haven't revealed what happened
at the ~gab-feast, but another
source of information tells The
LEADER that they came out
smiling, and indications are that
the bill will pass by March 15.

Table Talk

On the way back some of the
old timers in the group had plenty
to say that couldn’t be brought
out at tae hearings, They figure
that the support of Republicans
could have been expected, During
the years between 1920 and '29,
postal men gained something in
every session of Congress. At
least one bill improving their lot
was passed every year. Between
1929 and '32 they were in the
dumps with everybody else. But
since '32 the benefits they have
received can be counted on the
fingers of one hand, taney say.

Seventy-five Congressmen took
the trouble to appear in favor of
the postal measures. Others who
weren't able to show up sent
wires and letters expressing their
approval. If the bill could have
been voted on at the time, they
might have come home $300
richer, and if they don’t get some
favorable action soon, there'll be

a scrap on that will make the
Civil War look like Girl Scout
maneuvers.

After McReynolds’ tatement,

whieh didn't gain him much af-
fection in the hearts of the P. O.
delegates, there's some fear of
a White House weto if the bill
passes. Odds are, thouga, that
the bill will be approved by the
Committe, be passed, and signed
in order to keep peace in the gov-
ernment family. The P. O, car
ries a lot of political weight that
can be exerted if necessary.
Kushelewitz said bluntly that the
postal organizations will brook no
compromise. He warned that al-
ready he and his associates are
planning the biggest publicity bar-
rage ever to hit the American
people from an employee organi-
zation,

Representatives of the Joint
Conference of Postal Employees
have organized to visit all

Democratic county chairmen and
State Chaiyman James Farley's
personal ;epresentative, Vincent
Dailey, They'll request support
for their demands.

Postal Men
May Work More
Than 8-Hour Day

Regular postal employees may
now be required to work more
than 8 hours a day in order to
ssure their putting in 48 hours
each week.

Instructions from the First As-
sistant Postmaster General to
first, second and third-class post
offices having city or village de-
livery service are designed to re-
duce the expenses for auxiliary
work. It is suggested that when
practicable, the working day
should not exceed 10 hours.

Each office is instructed to file
quarterly reports of overtime
work. If there is more than 8
hours per employee per week, an
explanation of such overtime
must be furnished.

City to Hire Cops, Firemen

On ‘For the Duration’ Basis

Requirements
Eased; Age
Limits to 45

The New York City Civil Serv-
ice Commission will hold an e:
amination for the positions of
temporary rolmen and fire-
President Harry W. Marsh
last week categorically denied
that exams for these positions
would he held in the near future
or that any of the requirements
had been set up. Nevertheless,
n examination will be held for
the positions of temporary patrol-
and firemen; the physical
requirements were established
when President Marsh made his
statement. Either Marsh, for
reasons of policy, deliberately
withheld information of the pro-
gress that had been made on re-
quirements; or else he
aware of how far his examiners
had proceeded with the require-
ments on this important test.
Actually, physical requirements
had been prepared and approved
by February 16,

It can be said at this time that:

1. No date has yet been set for
tine examination, nor has a period
been allocated for the filing of ap-

plications,
2. In addition to the physical

men.

men

was un-

examination, there will be a writ-
ten test also,
3. The requirements for the

written test have not yet been
set up,

It may be assumed that the
written test will be far simpler
than any of the recent written
examinations for the positions.

It may be little more than an ele-
mentary intelligence test, plus
queries indicating the applicant's
knowledge of New York City,
Possibly an attempt may be made
to gauge the candidate's resrons3
to typical police s:tuations: this
is a favorite testing procedure.
The LEADER has at this time
no definite knowledge of the
course which the examiners will
take in p-zeparing the mental
exam, and the probability is that
the examiners are giving consid-
eration to many related problems
before determining the actual dif-
ficulty of the written examina-
tions.

Problem

One of the very mportant prob-
lems involved is this: How far
can requirements be cut without
impairing police efficiency? Or
put another way—how high can
requirements be kept without
seriously affecting recruiting of
men for the position?

An interesting indication is pro-
vided at a glance at the physi-
rements. Height is down
fect 6 inches—an all-time
Customarily it is 5 feet 8
inches for patrolmen. Age limit
s zoomed up to 45—it used to
be 29.

From these facts, it may be as-
sumed that the mental test will
not be over-strenuous,

No Competittve Test
The physical test will not be
competitive. It will be only neces-
sary to pass the minimum physi-
cal requirements. These require-
ments follow:

Proposal Before Civil Service Commission Requires

Three-Year Wait Before
Clerk May Be Promoted

The Municipal Civil Service
Commission last week held a
public hearing before Commis:

sioners Esther Bromley and Fer-
dinand Q. Morton on a measure
which would have changed the
requirements for promotional ex-
aminations to Clerk, Grade 3, 4
and 5 for the duration.

The proposal would have
changed the requirements
that:
yo employee would have to

gible to take a promotional ex-

amination
grade,

9) An employee would have to
“ show three years of service in
a lower grade before being eli-

gible for promotion after having
passed the examination fur the
next higher grade.

Objections Raised

According to Jack Bigel of the
SCMWA, his was the only organi-
zation to appeaf at the hearing
and express opposition to the
proposals on the following |
grounds:

The matter was budgetary and
did not come under the province |
of the Civil Service Commission. |

The change would give dual
weigat to seniority,

It would permit juggling around
of the lists, as every time a per-
son on the list reached a three-
year seniority, the whole list
would have to be revised.

It would restrict and narrow
promotional opportunities, |

There were no speakers in favor |
of the changes, and the commis-
sioners réserved their decision at|
the conclusion of the nearing.

in New York City indicated the
fact that a man with dependents
is employed® by the City is no
guarantee that he will remain in
a deferred category. [See column
“Draft Facts for City Employees.]
Most City departments have not
been issuing leaves to take war
jobs. At present an employee
who wants to shift over to war
industry may have to resign his
City joo in order to do so.
Married Men Under 38

Mazried men under 38 ‘would’ be
the group affected by any ruling
regulating such leaves.

Speaking of the resolution w
he had intoduced, Mr. Fitzgerald
said that his purpose was to bring
the subject to the attention of
the Board of Estimate, He point-
ed out that he had asked to have
the point discussed with the City's
Law Department to determing
what could be done to protect the
employees who werp faced with
the bleak prospect of having to
give up all their rights as civic
employees in order to take war-
industry work,

Some of the City departments,

among them Welfare and Hos-
pitals, are worried that any rul-
ing which would make it possi-
ble for an employee to move to
highly paid war work for the dur-
ation and still retain his place in
the civil service would denude
their staffs of the most valuable
members, Practically all of the
single men have been drafted,
and losing the married men un-
der 38 would be a hard blow,
, The last official ruling on the
subject was an edict from the
Mayor's office which frowned
upon any leaves except to em-
ployees entering armed service or
the merchant marine.

The Law Department has not
yet becn asked for any opinion
on the matter by any City depart-
ment,

In a letter to The LEADER, Mr.
Fitzgerald gave a specific illus-
tration, Said he

* “Let us assume that an applica.
tion for a leave of absence is
made by an employee, the father

struction of airplanes. The de-
partment head concludes that,
with the curtailment of acti

ties in that cular bureau of
his department, this man can be
spared, Under the present estab-
lished policy of the y of New
York, the department head,
ing come to such a conel
is empowered to gt

nt a leave of
absence, and he would do so if he
were to act purely upon the merits

of the case, However, he now
considers the possibility that,
when the Budget Director ex-
amines bis departmental request,
which will contain a provision for
two positions, only one of which
is filled by tae remaining em-
ployee of that classification, the
Budget Director will cut out one
position. The department head
then considers that the man who
had remained on the payroll is the
junior man and therefor, that man
will have to be laid off under
tae rules of inverse order of lay-
off. This would leave him no one
to carry on the work of that
classification, Therefore, in order
to prevent such a contingency, he
declines to grant a leave of ab-
sence to the applicant, That is
what is now happening in many
City agencies.”

ice Commission has approved the

DRAFT FACTS FOR

CITY EMPLOYEES

If you visit the Municipal Civil
Service Commission at 299 Broad-
way, you'll be asked to produce
your draft registration and classi-
fication card

Behind this is a letter from Col,
McDermott, Selective Service Di-
rector for New York City,
some 50 public institutions,
them to be cooperative

in

the
drive to track down draft-dodge

So you'd better have your docu-
ments with you when you're going
up to the Commission, If you
don't, the Commission's employees
have every right to call a cop and
have you hauled in

Gardeners and assistant gard-
eners in the Parks Department
are pretty worried. Reason:
Gardeners are listed in the non-
deferrable draft classification,
which means they can be called
into service unless they take a
war job, regardless of depend-
ents. What bothers the Parks
men is this, as expressed by one
of them: “Why were we singled
out.. Are we any less important

than other employees in the
Parks Department?

We asked a draft official
about this. His answer: “We

can use these men elsewhere to
better advantage in winning the
war.. They aren't being singled
out. Other employees can ex-
pect the same treatment, depend-
ing on their usefulness and
whether or not they can be re-
placed.”

According to the latest news
from Selective Service Head-
quarters, a job with the City is no
guarantee against being drafted,

It appears that while the War
Manpower Commission — ruling
could indicate that a City em-
ployee can consider himself in an
occupation which is not unessen-
tial, the draft boards look at
things from a different point of
view.

Provide Pay Rise or There'll Be Exodus
To Private Industry, Employees Warn

ALBANY — Using the budget
hearing as a forum, representa-
tives of State employee organ
tions last week opened their drive
for substantial pay increases, de-
spite the prospect that they will
have to fight Governor Dewey’s
indicated opposition.

Although they appeared sepa-
rately, the spokesmen for the
various groups were in accord on
one thing—that a wage adjust-
ment to cost between $5,000,000

and $11,500,000 must be made
this year,

Speaking before the finance
committees of the Legislature,

the representatives of the em-
ployees warned that unless there
is a general pay rise and unless
institution employees are given
time and one-half for volunteer
overtime worked, there may be an
exodus of more employees into
private industry.

One employee group also
warned the legislators that the
Budget Division had intimated
that Feld-Hamilton increments
might not be extended promptly
to institution employe despi
the State's pledge in this respec
Botlr the Salary Standardization
Board and the Classification Di-
vision have finished their task in
putting every job in the hospitals
under Feld-Hamilton, but the
Budget Division has indicated it
might not act,

“Any failure to do so would in
our opinion be a plain breach of
trust,’ sald a statement ued by
the Association of State Civil Se:
vice Employees,

King Asks 15 Percent
James V. King, representing the

State, County and Municipal
Workers, CIO, urged an increase
of 15 percent on salaries up to
$2,100 and 10 percent on those
above.

“Governor Dewey has an adroit-
ted surplus of $41,000,000, which
discounts any argument that the
State can’t afford to aid State
workers to meet mounting living
costs.

Present pay deductions for
pensions, the Vietqry ‘Tax, and
for War Bonds has reduced the

income of State workers by 43 to
45 percent, These people simply
will not, cannot stay in State ser-
vice unless they have pay relief.

Existing vacancies, and vacan-

cles bound to continue, mean
more unexpended money avail-
able for these increases without

upsetting (he financial plan. More
than 20 States and municipalities
already have adjusted upward the
salaries of thei workers,”’
Gustave A, Strebel, president of
the State CIO, backed up the de?
mands of the State workers with
an appeal to the Legis‘ature to
boost the pay scale by 19 resent

Harold af Albany,
representing the Association of
State Civil Service Employees,
said: ‘We note that the budget

does not provide for any adjust-
ment of salaries to meet the
atly increased cost of living.

cial legislation will be introduced
and pagsed to meet this critical

Th
draft stage, would provide for a
10 percent increase on wages up

to $2,500 and 5 pereent additional
tlaries over $2,500 and up to
The minimum annual in-
would be $120
imum, $375,

Efforts had been made in some
quarters to get the various State
employee groups together on one

pay plan but the hearing dis-
closed that each group was acting
more or less independently.

Both King and Clifford Mac-
Avoy, of the Greater New York

Industrial Union Council, at-
tacked Governor Dewey's pro-
posal to pay regular time for

overtime worked on a volunteer
basis by employees of the State's
mental hospitals in which there
ere some 5,000 vacancies among
attendants,

“Paying straight time for over-
time is not realistic,” said King.
“Phe State should not condone or
practice lower labor standards
than those in private industry.
Payment of straight time will not
solve the manpower shortage in
the institutions because the em-
ployees will not put in overtime
at regular pay rates, Only by
payment of time and one-half can
a solution be effected.’

Little Encouragement

Governor Dewey has indicated
that he 1s not disposed to yield to
any ‘raids’ upon the $50,000,000
surplus he now anticipates in
1944, Some representatives of
State employee groups have been
sounding out the Governor's
fiscal advisers, and they are
frank in admitting little encour-
agement for their pay rise plans.

The Governor said that his bud-
get already provides for upwards
of $5,000,000 in pay increases for
State workers, including the Feld-
Hamilton increments, the adop-
tion of the $1,200 a year minimum
for clerical workers who were get-
ting below that figure, for an in-
crease for State Police in the
starting brackets, and for institu-
tion employees, whom he has
guaranteed an increase of at least
$100 this year, either as a bonus
or as an increment ‘if and when
they are brought under the Feld-
Hamilton pay plan, which now
applies to most of the other State
employees,

General
Bradley’s
Column

By
Brigadier General
John J. Bradley (Ret.)

VOC I[s Out

3-A men can no longer volunteer ‘for officer training. Since
March, 1942, the Army permited men with dependents to volunteer
through their draft boards, They received their basic training, ana
then, if qualified, were sent to Officers’ Training School, If they,
did not make the grade, they were allowed to return to civilian life.
There are 15,000 of these volunters awaiting induction now, and that
is a 10-month supply. Over 5,000 such candidates have already re«
ceived their commissions, The War Department has just announced
that no new applications will be accepted until the present reservoir
is cut down. !

This and That

One purpose of rationing may be to help supply the soldier with
what he must have, but rationing hits him, too. Post exchanges
operate the same as any retail store. When a soldier buys shoes
he must surrender a shoe stamp or shoe purchase certificate. And
he can only buy shoes for his personal use... Aviation cadets have
previously been trained either as bombardiers or as navigators. In
the future they will have to master both branches. Purpose obvi-
ously to make it possible to pinch hit for each other in action .
An Air Mail Service school is opening March 6 at West Chester
Teachers’ College in Pennsylvania. Men with civilian postal ex-
nce may be assigned here after their basic training and take
positions in the A.P.O.

Now We Have theW RES {

An enlisted reserve known as the WIRES has been set up by the
Signal Corps, for women. Applicants must pass admission tests both
for the WAACS and the Signal Corps. After training in Signal
Corps schools they will be assigned to service with the Signal Corps
as part of the WAACS. Here's how it works: You enlist in the
WAACS, and are put on an inactive status until you complete your
Signal Corps training. Then you receive your basic training and
after that get an assignment with the Signal Corps. Fields of study:
mechanic learner, junior repairman trainee (radio and telephone),
assistant technician trainee, shop repair work. New courses will be
open as the needs of the Signal Corps for women become known, A
stiff mechanical aptitude test shows whether you can meet the Signal
Corps requirements.

Two Schools at Sheepshead Bay

Over at Sheepshead Bay, N.Y., two schools are operated by
the U.S. Merchant Marine offering unusual opportunities for those
men who qualify. Enrollment in the schools carries draft deferment,

One of these is the CLERK-TYPIST TRAINING SCHOOL.

Requirements: (1) At least 21 years of age. (2) High school
graduate or equivalent in commercial background; and typewriting.

The training period consists of 13 weeks. The curriculum in-
cludes the use of lifeboats, swimming, preparation of payrolls,
handling of ships accounts, entering and clearing of vessels, cor-
respondence, consular work, maritime law.

During the training period, the student is paid $50 a month,
plus quarters, subsistence, uniform, books, On being assigned to a
vessel, the clerk-typist receives $137.50 per mnoth, plus high wac
bonuses.

A PHARMACIST’S MATE SCHOOL:

Requirements: (1) Age limits of 18 to 25. (2) High school
graduation, These requirements are waived in some cases.

The training period is 17 weeks in length. Like the future
clerk-typist, the candidate first learns use of lifeboats and swim-
ming. Then he takes up anatomy and physiology, ‘irst aid, phar-
macy and therapeutics, nursing, clinical laboratory work,

Graduates will be rated as pharmacist's mate, 3rd class, U.S,
M.S., which carries a salary of $109 a month,

You can obtain an application for either of these schools by
applying at the nearest Maritime service station.

dividually. However, all questions are read, and thdse of general in-
terest will be answered in this column.)

Freezing the Clerks—

Who Gains?

public hearings cn a proposal which would freeze certain

L= WEEK the Municipal Civil Service Commission held

City employees in their jobs for three years before allowing
them to be promoted to the next higher grade.
City employees who pass promotional exams are usually the

high-calibre members of the department

They study in their spare

time and have enough interest in their job, and in themselves, to

want to get ahead,

What excuse can there be, Commissioners, to freeze these

people to a job for three years?

In the army a man“can advance from private to lieutenant

in 90 days!

In outside employment, merit is recognized!
In business, industry is rewarded!
Why should New York City clera» have to wait three years

before they may be advanced?

A QUESTION TO WEIGH

Less publicized than the fight of City employees for a cost-
of-living increase is the struggle of State employees for a living

salary.

The State workers can bring, one powerful argument to bear
—an argument that neither the Governor nor the Legistlature can

afford to overlook.

Unless they are granted some relief, there will be a mass
exodus to private industry where they can earn enough to live de-

cently.

Will the State Government be able to function properly after

its best employees have left?

That is a question to weigh against the cost of a salary in-

crease, Mr, Dewey.

EDITORIAL TO BE READ!

Civil Employees:

You may be underpaid, BUT

' Where’s the List fer
Employment
Interviewer?

| Sirs: Over 10 months ago, sey-
eral thousand applicants took an
‘open competitive examination for
employment interviewer, DPUI,
Most of the other examinations
given at that time have already
been rated and the lists published.
However, not one word concern-
ing the Employment Interviewer
exam, It is only from private
sources that I have been able to
Jearn that the rating of this exam
‘was in one stage or another, and
this information was none too re-
lable.

‘The USES will play an increas
ingly important vole in the man-
power situation before long, and
will consequently require a great.
ly expanded staff.

‘The other day I was informed
mployee of the USES that
ney has already made ap-
pointments, without benefit of
lists,’ to positions which were to
be filled from the employment
interviewer list, He also was of
the opinion that I ought to “for-
get about" the list as far as

hances of appointment from it
were concerned

I think it high
something definite
the status of this

time that
concerning
exam were

made public by the Commission.
The ctatement of the USES em-
ployee I have mentioned ought
to be clarified, as should be
the relationship between this list
and the hiring practice of the
State and Federal agencies,
8. L. WARREN,

Wants Employees

Covered by Insurance

Sirs: Rep. Robert Ramspeck’s
proposed legislation to stop taking
5 percent from Federal war ap-
pointees salaries for pension pur-
poses is an excellent plan. If by
any chance a war appointee
should maintain his position and
become a permanent employee
after the war, it would not be a
difficult matter to pay ‘‘back pen-
sion’ on the installment plan.
Meanwhilewith the expected new
increases in the tax program that
5 percent would help meet the
added cost of living.

What I can't understand is why
government war appointees are
not covered by unemployment in-
surance as well as private em-
ployees. It would certainly help
in tiding over the expected period
of unemployment from the time
the war ends until they reinstate
themselves back into their former
employment, as.c,

Rip and Tear
Governor Dewey: Is it true
that a ripper bill is being prepared
for introduction by an upstate Re-
publican to tear the guts out of
the State civil service system?

and give jobs to party hacks?
... and build up machine within
the State agencies? ... Can it be,

as some of the GOP poli-
ticos are whispering, that the
selection of new civil service

commissioners is being held up
pending passage of this legisla-
tion?... We suggest, Mr. Gov-
enror, that you look into this

moor?... Charles Campbell, who

ice Commissioner, is now down to

Horse in Ciyil Service

This is a true story, so help us.

A horse almost found himself
on the rolls of the civil service
last week. It happened up in
Monticello, The mayor and the
local civil service commissioner
were arguing about the sewer
plant operator.

The commi ner felt that the
man should be in the competitive
civil service. The mayor said
“No”

The Mayor pointed out that the
man was assisted in his work by
@ horse, and that the horse should
get civil service status if the man
did,

After careful investigation it
was found that the horse was a
part-time worker. When he
worked he only earned $10 a week.
That technicality definitely ex-
cluded him from the civil service.
..»Block lgaders aren't being
Hogerstintae, .. hope that no
light-fingered gentry have taken
advantage of patriotism to use
their roles to “case” the neighbor-
hood.

“A WOMAN WORKING with
a test tube or side rule can do
as much to help win the war as
a man driving a heavy tank.”
That's Miss Pauline Cronon’s pet
idea, and for two years she’s been
working in the office of the En-
gineering, Science and Manage-
ment Defense Training program,
That fancy title means that the
crganization helps people to find
their place in the war effort.
Miss Cronon is right hand man
(or should it be woman?) to
Dean Albert S. Newman, regional
director. Her brand new title is,
“Coordinator of Training,” and
was elevated to the post last
week.

Besides helping to win the war,
Miss Cronon feels that the women
who are working to put over the
‘fauge war-production schedule will
contribute to domestic peace after
the war. Here's why:

They'll Understand Men

She thinks that after a women
has worked for a while she can
appreciate how wonderful it is to
come home to a well-cooked meal
and a pleasant environment. Af-
ter the war, when the women nave
retired from the lathes and worlt
bench, they will be able to un-
derstand their husbands’ point of
view. A woman who knows the
meaning of a long day’s work
isn't liable to greet her husband
with a barrage of nags or petty
complaints, but will try to make
nis after-work surroundings as
pleasant as possible.

Miss Cronon is one of those
people who will be entitled to a
long vacation when the war has
been won. Her little office on
Madison Avenue is constantly
jammed with men and women
who want to know more about
the advanced training programs
which are offered, Colleges are
on the half dozen phones, and
every call leads to Miss Cronon,
And despite the furor: and confu-
sion she finds time to be gracious
to a visiting reporter. She sits

QUESTION, PLEASE

What Is Legal

Residence?

F.R.: Legal residence, under
civil service law, refers to the
state in which a person has his
permanent home. If you have
moved to another state for a tem-
porary period (say, to take a war
job) and fully intend to come
wack to the state in which you had
your home, the latter is your legal
residence, although you are not
now living there. However, a per-
son cannot claim a state as his
legal residence for purposes of a
Federal exam unless he has lived
there for at least one year next
preceding the closing date set for
the receipt of the application for
the examination,

Personal Investigation
V.F.: The United States Civil
Service Commission has the duty
to investigate the character and
fitness of applicants, This is not
to be confused with the oral ex-
amination, The Commission has a

third time fn as many years the
Mayor had jockeyed the Demo-
crats into a position where they
could do nothing else but yote for
his Police-ripper legislation. But
‘on each occasion these democrats
yelled like virtue defied, and each
time the Mayor was the scoundrel
responsible for their fall.

The two previous occurences
were in the City Council. “No more
patrolmen appointments,” the May
or said the first time, ‘unless
you pass this Pension Bill requir
ing new entrants to pay up
percent pension rate." The Den:o-
erats in the Council squawked
that this was blackmail but voted
unanimously in favor of the bill.

‘The second time the Mayor said,
“No more patrolmen apointment
unless you decrease the salaty of
Probationary Patrolmen from
$2,000 to $1,820."

‘This is sweatshop standards,”
the Council Democrats cried, and
went down the line for the bill,

Here's what one patrolman
wrote us in commenting on this
situation:

Making the
Best of It

Nevertheless, patrolmen should

not think that the Tem-
porary Patrolmen Bill is
an unmitigated evil. For one, it

is a temporary solution to a per-
plexing problem of police man-
power, It is not enough to say
that the problem is mainly of the
Mayor's making, The fact is that
due {o retirements and military
service there ure almost 1600 va-
cancies in the P, D, ‘These va-
cancies simply cannot be filled by
the ordinary method of filling va-
cancies because all men, mariied
and single, are bound to be
drafted almost as soon as they
ave appointed.

We should therefore make the
best of this use of temporary pa-
trolmen. We think it will be dif-
ficult enough to obtain men be-
tween 38 and 45 (younger men
are army material, older men ave
not physically desirable) who will
work the policenian’s 52-hour-
week for less than $39 weekly out
of which they will have to pur-
chase equipment for about $30).

Patrolmen would be less than
human if they did not resent tem-
porary patrolmen as the media
for the destruction of the stand-
urds of the police job, Becauso,
lurking in the background if the
temporary patrolmen idea does
not succeed is the emergency
chart, we herewith repeat the

plan ‘for the successful use of

1, Different uniforms and dif-

ferent shields for them,

2, Special war duties for them—

3. Specially created conimands

We think that this plan pro-
vides the greatest assurance of its
success by forestalling the possi-
bility of conflict and antagonisms
that are sure to arise if tempo-
rary patrolmen are permitted to
work side by side with regular
patrolmen, .

and ups their wages.

Another beef is dissatisfaction
with the whole clyil service set
up, “Security in a city job?’,
one told me, “that’s the bunk.
What we have is the right to
work for years and be underpaid,
As soon as we get up towards the
top—and it's no easy climb, we
face the chance of finding our job
wiped out of the budget each
year. If it happens we're just out
of luck

The Winnahs!

The election for the Personnel

By ARTHUR RHODES
Down Gossip Lane

If the stress were on accuracy
rather than on gross production,
it's entirely possible the rumor
that 250 persons are to be chopped
off the payroll of the Vet Admin-
istration at 346 Broadway
wouldn't even exist these days ,.,
‘The word persists that the place
is overstaffed, My opinion is taat
it isn't, that they can use all they
have-right now... A large
group of Washington workers who
transferred here some months ago
ig banding together te impress C,
J, Reichert, boss of the place,
that when April promotions come
along they are entitled to more
consideration than certain New
Yorkers whose civil service ca-
reers aren't nearly as lengihy—
even though all else is equal...
Who treated whom to lunch the
other day when Supervisor Joe
Harley, of the second floor,
walked out with all those gals?
And did tose gals take it off an-
nual leave? . Speaking of
lunch, the CIO union, UFWA, is
planning to canvass the building
thoroughly to obtain an accurate
picture of just how many folks
want that terribly enervating
lunch period lengthened to a hu
mane 45 minutes . . . And B
Reichert permitted the people a
full hour for lunch Washington's
Birthday because, he figured, few
restaurants were open to handle
the crowds. You just can't ent
in ten minutes and walk a half
mile or so and still have time
to do a standing-sitting-standing
number , , , Nevertheless, the re-
action was terrific, The dames
did everything but light up a
cigar and stretch their legs after
devouring a full luncheon

One young lady confided that she
couldn't figure out what to do
with the last 15 minutes, so ac-
customed was she to choking her-
self.

That Big Mouth

The word is that there might
be a subversive operating in
the building. Otherwise, why
that series of hot incidents (it
you want to know, I'll answer by
mail)? , . . Who's the important
figure among the top executives
In the building who, when asked
whether Assistant Manager Herby
Hudson’s recent trip to Washing-
ton meant he was going to stay
there, replied: “Too bad It
didn't"? , . , Boss Reichert’s sec-
retary, Millie Haynes, has been

married to Pvt, Earl Sanborn, of
Tampa, Fla. It happened in
Maspeth, L, L, Baptist parsonage
(he's stationed with the air corps
in Miami Bexeh). . . . Incident-
aly, Pvt, Sanborn happens to
have been n> less than an assist.

ant supervisor in the Ploridw
Vet offic And, while on
the marriage tople, Beity Pesh=

kin's planning her nuptials in
June; her guy's in the army, too.
Why did they transfer five
duals out of the numbering
of the second floor? . , «
‘The Broadway lobby clock went
completely wild the other day
Seems the poinisy were burned
out, or something, and finally
they had to cover the b’g face
completely.

Sh-h-h-h-h!

Things quieted down with a
vicious suddenness on the ninta
floor when they finally got those
two file clerks pushed over to an-
other place , , . Several boys on
various floors are still imbibing
on the sly... In fact, as I get
it, one of the most ardent super=
visors has been guzzling a great
plenty, too. I'll give you only this
hint as to the identity of the ins
dividual: he’s not a she, , .A’
certain supervisor on the second
floor has been discouraging in+
coming phone calls to such an ex+
tent that employees are even
threatencd with time off theiy
afraid to receive important me:
sages these days. They're even
threatened with time off their
annual leave (seems many folks"
annual leave must by now have
shrunken to momentary leave),
.. Is "Vickie" (fifta floor) Aus
lander really cutting down on hev
lipstick thes ‘ Dora
Behmoiram, plumpish fifth
flcor laws, thought she'd give some
blood to the American Red Cross
the other day, They couldn't find

her veins, aowever, and almost
hacked her, arm apart, ‘The rumor
is that one of the ‘does’ finally
decided to munch into it, much

in the manner of devouring an
arm of corn, Net result: still no
blood ,., Ann (12th floor) Ansell
offered her third pint of blood the
same day and nearly fainted at
the windup , . , So tae UFWA
Ann Dolan, committed an error
in sending out your name as part
of its grievance committee, You'll
admit you were considering the
office, no? ,,, Over in Miss
Myrtle Newton's section of the
second floor they're eager to know
what's causing all that bedevil-
ment on the left hand side in the
rear of the room, I hear it's very
likely the newly formed Club
Hawaii, or the girl with tae
YOMFOEGEL, Members of the
new club (such goings on) are
known as Zeloa, Pheloa, Miloa,
Aloah and Streloa, What, no
Milk of Magnesia?

Mrs. Peake
Honored by
Vet Workers

Mrs, Edna Coil Peake, chief of
section three, fifth floor's East
Wing, was idly remarking last
week about “how fast 25 years
fly.” Thursday night she was
tendered a surprise anniversary
fete by fellow employees of the
Veterans Administration of 346
Broadway, Manhattan, The affair
was held in Zimmerman's Hun-
garia, 163 West 46th Street, Man-
hattan, 3

day without incident. The

visors)

Vivien Keteltas (typists)

Edith Freedner (clerks, grade 2)

‘The successful candidates were
all nominces of the SCMWA,
Nevertheless, the fight was close.
Final yoting figures had not yet
been tabulated as The LEADER
went to press, but it was learned
that the Forum candidates scored
unusually well, even though none
of them was elected, One SCMWA
official, commenting on this,
pointed out that ‘a large number
of SCMWA members are off to
the wars.'’

Approximately 4,200 employees
participated in the election, . The
actual conduct of the yoting was
smooth and efficient, Only 15
ballots were challenged, and these
on minor technical grounds,

Polito, acting reviewers of Mrs,
Peake's section, who organ'zed
the dinner committee with the as-
sistance of Miss Maude Ovebaugh,
assistant chief of that section,
presented the guest of honor—on
behalf of those present—with pink
zivcons in a 14-Karat gold set-
ting as well as a red rose corsage,

‘Twenty-five years in the serv
ice, Mrs, Peake—a native of Ste
Louis, Mo.—started as a stenog-
pher in the Veterans February
25, 1918, in what was then known
as the Bureau of War Risk Insui
ance, She advanced through cor-
respondence clerk, chief reviewer,
assistant section chief.

Civil Service
Canteen

‘The stillness of a Saturday nieht
in the vicinity of Astor Place and
Broadway is deceiving—especially
when you enter the seventh floor
of 13 Astor Place, New York City,
‘The gitls of the SOMWA and tho
boys of the armed ‘forces have
taken over the premises, Net re+
sult—fun galore, entertainment,
games and refreshments,

The Civil Service Canteen oc-
cupies three rooms on the seventh
ficor—the Blue Room for dancing
and lounging with the boys—the
Game Room—the ack-ack-ack of
billiard balls caroming against
each other and the collision of
ping pong balls—the Bar—serving
becr and cola,

Entertainment at the Canteen
has been superb, including some
of the hest known performers,

Dorothy Rehm, of the United
States Employment Service, is
chairman of the Canteen,

As to college students, medical
students are entitled to a 2-E cls-
sification; others such as those
studying to be laboratory  tech-
nicians for government health
service work, at least in their
sophomore year and possessing 0
recognized uptitude, will be de-
ferred.

in business, agricultural pursuits,

safety and interest, have a

not in this category.

The war-time trend as it affects
the white-collar class as a whole
was outlined last week by Ralph

the Navy in charge of labor, in
his declaration that “in war-tims
here is no justification for #
white-collar class as such if it
does not contribute directly to the
war effort."

Another explains that Washing-
ton “looks just like the residen-
tial section ‘of Brooklyn."

Still another points out that
that the Capitol city “seems just
like Manhattan but chopped off
at the top.”

It’s Easier Now

The new Broadway office
signed to clarify things for
cants; instead of hunting around
for the proper office at 641 Wash-
ington Street, applicants now
merely to walk up to Room 404
at 45 Broadway and take a prac-
tical test. Then comes the pl
cal exam—and Washington virtu-
ally as quickly as ‘that.

Mrs, Marie A, Butteli is in
charge of the new office, whica
last week underwent a paint job
and just got its phones installed
the other day.

The Army is looking for these
stenos and typists, too, but most-
ly it's the Navy that’s opening its
arms to arriving applicants,

The Broadway offices furnishes
typewriters for the test, so you
don’t even have to rent one for
tae examination, You can be as-
sured of at least $34 weekly once
at work, piled up from a 48-hour,
overtime week, If you're 1744

tary exams, you're in—Washing-

Coughlan Explains
Position on Park

Per Annum Bill

Gerald Coughlan, pr
the Greater New York F
ployees Association, this week ¢
pressed the view of his organizn-
tion with respect to the Parks
Department per annum bill, which
has aroused much controversy
among employees in the depart
ment,

Stating that ‘Councilman Shar-
key told us it is this bill or no
bill at all," Mr. Coughlan argued
that "it is better to accept the
terms of the bill now, and fight
for more later, than to suffer a
defeat which would mean we
wouldn’t have a chance of acquir-
ing per annum status--maybe for
year's to come, We're willing to
accept $1,700 for assistant gar
deners and $1,800 for gardeners—
and then continue the fight from
there,”

McKellar Bill
Chances Begin
To Fade Slightly

WASHINGTON- Observers here
think the chances of the McKellar
bill have begun to fade slightly.

This is the bill which wou!d re-
quire Senatorial confirmation of
all Federal employees making
$4,500 or more per year, And
while the bill still is conceded an
excellent chance of passing, oD-
position against it undoubtedly is
crystallizing.

Sen, Charles L, McNary, minor-
ity leader, has come out against
the bill. This, following President
Roosevelt’s emphatic denunciation
of the bill, seems to have swerved
a number of minds.
