| WHAT THE PUBLIC THINKS
| OF THE CIVIL SERVANT
ALBANY, Nov. 19—The old
“one-of-three” rule, which allows
an appointing officer to select one
of three eligibles submitted to him
by the Civil Service Department,
has been challenged before the
State Commission on Revision of
the Civil Service Law. The rule
has frequently come under attack.
Commission lawyers, sensitive to
the criticisms, say they are for-
bidden by the State Constitution
from changing the rule, However,
they are considering modifications
in it. Two of these modifications
would provide:
1, That every eligible candidate
be notified that an appointment is
being considered,
2. That every eligible candidate
be granted a personal interview be-
fore a final selection is made.
What Does ‘Select’ Mean?
These recommendations were
offered as @ result of several pro-
tests over the interpretation of
the word “select” by appointing
officers in State agencies, A typl-
cal case involved a claim by
candidate for the position ot|
Health Publications Editor with
declared that an arbitrary and
unfair use of the word “select”
constituted a grave injustice to
him,
“Though I came out number 1
on the list established by the State
Civil Service Commission,” he
asserted, “I was never even called
in for an interview by the appoint-
ing officer. Nor was I advised that
an appointment was being made,
nor asked whether I would be
available. I might as well have
been on another planet as far as
the Health Department was con-
cerned. I only learned of the ap-
pointment of the number three
man on the list by reading about
it in a newspaper, You can im-
agine how terribly shocked and
hurt I was.
“When I wrote to the Health
Department asking for an ex-
planation, I was informed that
the appointing officer may select
any one he chooses from the first
the State Health Department, who}

a j three. This is legally correct, But
how could anyone say this is an
|honest and faithful selection when
the number 1 man is not even in-
terviewed? Surely this is a viola~
tion of the spirit of civil service.
All I ask is a fair chance at the
Job and I don't think I received
it.”
Unconstitutional
In_an_ interview with The
LEADER, Joseph Schechter, coun-
sel to the New York State Civil
Service Commission, said that; the
suggested modifications to the
would help strengthen and clari-
fy it in the interests of fair play.
“However,” he declared, “an
amendment to the law which would
require appointments to be made
in regular order from the list
without giving the appointing
officer the right of selection would
be unconstitutional. This has
been established by the decision
of the Court of Appeals in the case
of Balcom vs. Mosher.”
This would apply equally to ap-
pointment on promotions, Mr.
Schecter pointed out.

“Here's how I'd do that job.”
How many employees ever get the
chance to say these words to their
department head, especially if
the top man is located in a distant
city? Well, New York State ac-

70,000 personnel to do just that,

“When you have @ suggestion,
write it down, Unless you do some-
thing about an idea, it benefits no
one."
And the program has proved to
be good business,
half years of operation spproxi-
mately $435,250 in savings has ac-
crued to the State from approved
proposals, for which $18,025 has
been paid out in awards ranging
from 85.00 to $500.
How It Works
Here's how the Idea Factory
operates in New York State:
A Merit Award Board of three
members appointed by the Gov-
ernor administers the program.
The members are career em-
ployees and serve without com-
pensation, Suggestions are sub-
mitted in writing directly to this
board, and to insure impartial re-
view, are processed anonymously,
& number being substituted for the
author's name. Through depart-
mental committees, the practic:
bility of each proposal is apprais-
ed at the using level. Based on
reports from these committees, the
}board then evaluates the sugges-
tion and decides whether or not
an award is warranted. The
awards authorized by Article 3-A
of the Civil Service Law may be
in the form of cash, salary incre-
ments, medals or certificates. If a
suggestor's brainchild does not
merit an award, the reasons are
explained to him in a personal
letter.
Case of the Caretaker
A caretaker at one of the State
parks noticed that a great many
jfireplace grates were broken by
|falling on the stone supports, On
jhis own initiative, he constructed
an improved type of grate with a
sounterbalance arrangement
3ullt-in hinges and firebricks, both
items of maintenance, were elimi-
nated, Through the Suggestion
System, this employee had the
opportunity of presenting draw-
ings and an explanation of his
handiwork to the Superintendent
of Parks in Albany, 200 miles dis-
tunt. Result; Installation of the
fireplace equipment in nine parks
save $1,700 per year, with greater
conomies anticipated as the sug-
gested changes are instituted in
many of the other recreation
areas, In recognition of his in-
genuity the suggestor received $100
in cash,
An audit clerk's sound business

Idea Factory,

whereby &@ group contract could
be effected for the leasing of mail
metering machines. Single billing
to the State rather than to sey-
eral separate departments, as
heretofore, made possible addi-
tional discounts totaling $2,000.
A helper at one of the Fish
Hatcheries originated a device for
liberating oxygen in the tanks of
water in which fish are trans-
ported to public streams. The
equipment consists of a six-foot
loop of rubber tubing through
which oxygen is bubbled from @
tank. Trials have proved the idea
to be much superior to the method
previously used, whereby the oxy-
gen was passed through a specially
constructed carborundum ball,
This new system has been imple-
mented in all of the Fish Hatch-
eries in New York State and saves
an estimated $1,000 annually. The
| Merit Award Board presented the
suggestor with a check for $150,
Fosters Cooperation
The Suggestion Program, also
fosters closer employee coopera-
tion, as evidenced by the idea de~
veloped jointly by two girls in the
Health Department Laboratory at
Albany. The process of obtaining
sera for treatment of whooping
|cough in children required in-
travenous inoculation of rabbits.
It was necessary to take each rab-
bit from its cage, carry the ani-
mal to an injection table and re-
strain it by hand during inocula-
tion, The lifting and carrying of
scores of protesting, eight-to-ten-
pound rabbits that scratched,
kicked, bit, and struggled to get
away from the injection needle
was @ wearying job, Working to-
gether, the two laboratory techni~
cians devised a portable stanchion
which can easily be attached to
the open door of the cage, making
it unnecessary to take the rabbit
from its pen. This apparatus has
resulted in a 30 percent saving of
|time and has materially decreased
employee fatigue. The. danger of
spreading contagious infections
throughout the rabbit colony also
has been reduced by eliminating
the.use of a common injection
table,
The Suggestion System assumes
& new significance in these omin=
ous times with impending man-
power shortages and ever-growing
demands for leadership by the
State in mobilization for defense
and democracy.

“Code of Ethics for Public
Employees? No Easy Thing,
Three Debaters Conclude
Three panel members, “thinking
out loud” before an interested,
participating audience of 100, con-
Cluded that the writing of a code
of ethics for government em-
is no easy task.
The event, described as “one of
the most exciting yet,” took piace
at a meeting of the Albany chap-
ter, American Society for Public
, Administration. The group holds
monthly meetings on matters of
Public administration.
, Speakers were Andrew V, Clem-
ents, Dean of the Albany Law
School; and Arthur W. Macma-
hon, Professor, Department of
Public Law and Governnient, Co-
lumbia University. Maxwell Leh-
man, LEADER editor and New

Panel Member ‘Converted’
With the audience finging ques~
tions at all three participants, it
became clear that the sort of
code drawn up by a United States
Senate subcommittee under Sen-
ator Paul H. Douglas left many
grave doubts. Highlight of the
discussion came when Prof. Mac-
mahon, who had been defending
the Douglas code, suddenly turned
to Dean Clements and Mr, Leh-
man and said: “Gentlemen, you
have made a convert.”
Dean Clements strongly ques-
tioned the value of a code of
ethics for government employees.
He cited factors such as low pay
being responsible for police cor-
ption, and expressed pessimism
wer the possibility of such a code
to deal effectively with the prob-
Jem of government corruption.
Mr. Lehman, while favoring a
code, nevertheless objected to one
which “would further restrict the
Uberties of public employees.” He
pointed out as an example that
under the Douglas code a public
employee would be forbidden, un-
der pain of dismissal, even from
discussing future employment with
individuals outside of government
under certain conditions,

Interest,
the Public
Employee
By Jesse B. McFarland
President. The Civil Service
Employees Association
The Facts of Salary
IN THIS issue of the LEADER the Association sets forth in
brief detail the facts as to the salary situation in New York State
ice.
This is no ordinary annual salary report. Every day of develop-
ment of our vast national, private and public production and
servicing of an economy that is growing by leaps and bounds, Is
‘been. Shall citizens of New York State who are in the forefront
in establishing services necessary to education of children, protection
of life and property, promotion of sound social welfare agencies to
meet common problems of every community, seek the maximum of
benefits through these wise institutions by exercising their best
care in maintaining an efficient body of public workers? Or shall
they bid only for mediocre and inexperienced workers and thus
invite waste of investment as well as inadequate public service?
‘The Competitive Problem
The problem in large part lies in the competitive pay scales
of the State and its competitors for human brains, initiative, '
and high efficiency, Public service of itself with its spiritual rewards
for conscientious work well done and for the many advances gained
in pursuit of general happiness appeals to many, It is not, however,
suffictent incentive to man government completely—the most im-
portant business of society—with enough efficient workers to per-
form the necessary task economically.
The Practical Look
The man with the responsibility of home and dependents these
days is forced to take a practical look at the cost of bread, heat
and medicine, as well as of the clothes and incidentals of boys and
girls in school or college. The State worker ts asking the Governor
and the legisiator this year to adopt a wholly practical, common-
sense, businesslike approach to the problem of providing for personal
service in government and to maintain a sound pay plan to do away
with the unsatisfactory yearly struggle at budget time. The Assocla-
tion has based its appeal for salary adjustments throughout the
war and post war years since 1940, not on any public privilege
grounds, but simply to maintain purchasing power on the 1935-39
levels, Tt is the simplest kind of arithmetic and of social justice
that the public employee should have his salary or wage kept in
line, as the value of the dollar to purchase goods is lessened.
Until the salaries of State workers are brought in line with
dollar values, the State worker is being set apart from other citizens
and is being asked to subsidize State government. This situation
actually exists today as the facts regarding State salaries plainly
show, and has existed throughout all of World War I and post-war
years,
Take the Facts to Your Neighbors
The Association asks that every State worker, wherever he be,
take these salary facts to his neighbors, the businessman, the church-
man, the political leaders—to all of his neighbors. There is no selfish
appeal in the State employee's request that his State government
fashion State salaries on a just basis and on a basis that will improve
the efficiency and economy of the State government.

valued friend and co-worker at
this time. When Doctor Carl Lange
came on in 1935 he was already
famous as a medical scientist in
the field of laboratory diagnosis
and control, particularly in the
field of neurosyphilis, His name
is most closely linked to the col-
fi-
loidal gold test which he orginated
examination of cerebrospinal fluid,
While working in this Division, he
refined and standardized the
‘and incorporated system of con-
trols to give quantitative and
easily reproducible results. His
technics have greatly enriched the
examination of cerebrospinal fluid
for evidence of neurosyphilis and
other diseases involving the central
nervous system. Doctor Lange's
|health has been poor for some
time and he was unable to attend
any kind of farewell ceremony,
but his friends at the laboratory
presented him with an electric
blanket and took that opportunity
‘of sending him their best wishes.
He always had time to explain any
question however simple or com-
plex until it was completely under-
stood and all will miss the bass

the workings of the Neurosyphilis

These persons are, of course, set for life. It is impossi-
ble to fire them, and they retire at excessively high pensions,
The Work-Habit Myth
Their daily work-habits require that they be on. the job
fe omptly at 10 every morning. When the clock strikes 4 in
tue afternoon, there is such a crush at the exits of public
buildings that it is worth the life of an unsuspecting citizen
to be in the vicinity at that time. They take two hours for
junch; and the clerical corps gains further sustenance by
taking coffee in the morning.
The current folklore of civil service has established that
there is little courtesy in public employees. If, heaven forbid,
it becomes necessary to deal with government aides, one
can expect brusque treatment, surly answers, little satis-|
faction. Thus it becomes necessary to have politicians inter- |
vene, and to pay somebody for services rendered.
A high percentage of those interviewed in this survey
tended to divide large segments of public employees into
four categories—the crook, the would-be crook, the incom-
petent—and the spy. In some Federal departments you have
to be very careful about the employees, because like as not
they are carrying atom-bomb secrets for handing over to
the nearest Soviet courier.
At the local level of government, it is conceded that po-
lice are required; but there is an unwritten Police Depart-~
ment regulation that a patrolman should never be available
when vou need him. Firemen usually do a good job of putting
out fires, but a big part of their task is to use their axes
to chop up property and furniture. All inspectors, of what-
ever kind, take money.
What's the Reason
Why has such a picture grown up in the public mind?
For three reasons.
In part it’s true. But the 2 percent of truth in it has,
by its spectacular nature, overwhelmed the 98 percent of
falsehood in it.
The second reason is this: Public employees and offi-
cials have made a uniquely vulnerable whipping boy for poli-
ticians and some others who have an axe to grind and can |
grind it on the individual on a public payroll.
Third: Civil servants and public officials have done a
poor job of telling the real story of government to the people
—and the people simply do not know the story.
it is front-page news a minor Federal official does a
favor in payment for a 12-pound ham. It is news when a
building inspector takes a bribe. It is big news when ecollec-
tors of internal revenue are found steeped in corruption.

NYC Disaster
A $600 pay raise to anesthetists
in Kings County Hospital, ap-
aes Inst week by the NYC
ard of Estimate, will presum-
ably bring to an end the situation
in which all except emergency
operations have been halted since
October 19.
The operations in the City's |
second largest hospital had to be
curtailed because of the large num- |
ber of resignations among nurse~
anesthetists, The former pay level |
was $2,750 to $3,240 a year, At
this rate of pay, only four nurse-
anesthetists remained on the staff.
As soon as the situation was
made public (although it was
known to City officials for six
months earlier), Budget Director
Thomas Patterson recommended
that pay be increased by §300_a
year, The Board of Estimate,
however, turned down the recom~-
mendation, accepting instead the
nurses’ own demand for a $600
increase.
The new increase includes a
figure of $360 for maintenance,

USE OF ONE-MAN POLICE |
PATROL CARS INCREASING
San Francisco is the latest of the large cities to join the
of municipalities using one-man patrol cars in police work, the Ini
national City Managers’ Association reports. |
Paced with a shortage of patrolmen as a result, of 96 police
being called to military duty, San Francisco initiated the one-
patrols in its residential areas late this spring. Adoption of
method of patrolling made 44 men immediately available for othe
assignments, City officials are also considering shifting foot patrolme
to three wheel motorcycles in outlying residential areas, thus redu¢
on number of patrolmen needed by increasing the size of the)
at.
San Francisco's adoption of the one-man patrol scheme bring
to 10 the number of major cities over 500,000 population using one
man patrol cars. Big cities using the one-man cars on all shifts
clude New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Houston,
waukee and St. Louls. Minneapolis and Pittsburgh use them for pg
trols during the daylight hours.

_ (SEA President Jesse B. McFarland’s Statement on Salary
DURING the war and post-war years, the at-
tempts on the part of the public employee to keep
up with the rising cost of living have been unsuc-
cessful. While the adjustments of income of most
salaried and wage-earning groups in private em-
ployment have kept pace with or exceeded the
cost-of-living changes, those of the public em-
ployee have lagged behind the advancing costs by
two or more years. Never has the public employee
been able to catch up with the inflated costs of
food, housing, medical eare, personal and family
needs. His accumulated loss because of this fact
is staggering. This accumulated loss has gone be-
yond redemption. Certainly everyone is aware
that salary adjustments to the current cost-of-
living levels have become an absolute necessity of
life in these unstable times.
The Association, therefore, has assembled facts
on the present salary needs of State employees,
and is presenting them in this section,
The Association's request for a 15 percent up-
ward adjustment of the salary of the State work-
er is amply justified by the plight in which he and
his family find themselves. There is sound reason
for favorable action by the State on the Associa-
tion’s request for parity and more frequent salary
adjustments to maintain pari These adjust-
ments ordinarily become effe e on April 1.
This emphasizes the wage lag suffered by State
employees for years and the necessity of interim
adjustments,
The Congress of the United States certainly has
shown the way by adjusting substantially the pay
of Federal employees, and by recognizing the
justice of making these adjustments retroactive
to July 1, 1951. These scales of pay for the Fed-
eral employees, as now adjusted, have taken into
account living costs, and they are higher than
State levels in all services,
CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY HAILS VALUE OF

HOUSE GROUP, EXPRESSING CONFIDENCE IN
BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS, BACKS FREE
HAND, APPROVES PRESENT POLICY ON TAXES
A House of Representatives sub-
committee praised the Consumers
Price Index today as “the most
important single statistic tssued

A report on the index said “it
might well be called the billion-
dollar index” because it affected
the pay envelopes of more men
and women more often than any
other single statistical figure in
the United States,
‘The index measures changes in
the price of goods and services
usually bought by moderate tn-
come families in large cities,
‘These incomes range roughly from
$3,000 to $5,000 a year, with the
mid-point about $3,500,
The index is on the table of
nearly every collective bargain-
ing conference, and is a controll-
ing figure in the basic regulation
of the Wage Stabilization Board,
The report emphasized that the
index was not, and was not in-
tended to be, a true cost of liv-

in the cost of living attributable
to price changes,

or less, up to April |, 1951 at which time a temporary graded percentage raise based on a 7!/2 to 12!/2%-

below 68%,. The cost of living in September had risen to 86.6% above'the 1940 level; so that, it is cleor that

NCLUSTON
In justice to State workers, a salary adjustment in accordance with the resox
lution and facts must be made:—
1, To keep pace with the increasing cost of living.
2. To match prevailing levels in private industry.
3. To meet the competition of Federal salaries.
In justice to the taxpayer of the State of New York in maintaining an efficient
state government, it is necessary to provide a salary program that will enable the Stata
