‘VE NEVER eaten pork in
my life," says earnest Dr.
Abraham Lichterman, chief of
the Division of Drugs and Cos-
metics in the New York City
Dept. of Health, who has just
perfected a skin test to diag-
nose trichinosis in hogs,
Little known to the average
person, trichinosis is a para-
sitic disease transmitted to
humans through improperly
cooked pork. Doctors believe
as high as 15% of the popula-
tion is Infected to some degree
with the disease, which so far
is incurable.
Dr. Lichterman’s discovery
may be the jumping-off point
for a new assault on one of the
unbtry’s most severe public
nealth problems. Nearly one-
hird of all pork is not inspect-
i, The rest receives no spe-
» test for the trichinae para-
Nearly 100% Effective
Lichterman’s test, which he
says Is 97% effective, makes it
possible to segregate diseased
from healthy porkers, so they
can be refrigerated until the
pavasite is destroyed,
Lichterman became interest-
ed in the problem after hearing
a lecture by Prof, Thurlow C.
Nelson, of Rutgers, who re-
ferred to an antigen which had
been developed to diagnose tri-
chinosis in humans. “It oc-
curred to me,” says Lichter-
man, “that a similar test might
be used on hogs.”
Por an assistant, Lichterman
selected Irving Kleeman, a rel-
atlve newcomer in the Health
Dept., who had six years of bio-
chemical research to his credit.
Together they made a report
on trichinosis literature, later
teceived permission to under-
take further research,

Kleeman and Dr. Annis E,
Thompson prepared the anti-
Sen for the experiment, Last
January Lichterman and Klee-
man went to Rikers Island and
*xperimented with 211 gar-
bage-fed hogs. Results showed
More than 10% had trichinosis.
Because of this work the

To Clerk, Grade 2 Exam
More than 2,500 low-paid city employees, who would otherwise be
barred, may admitted provisionally to the Clerk, Grade 2, promotion exam,
scheduled for Noy, 18, if a resolution submitted by the Municipal Civil
Service Commission is approved by Mayor Fiorello H, LaGuardia this week.
The resolution, submitted to the Mayor several weeks ago, reduces the
present experience requirement from one year to six months and removes
a provision that Storekeepers’ Helpers, M ngers, Receptionists, Typists,
Stenographers and others in the competitive system must serve one year in
the clerical service before taking a test for Clerk, Grade 2. These employ-
ees are not in the clerical service and therefore have been prevented from
taking the promotion exams,
If the Mayor and the State commission approve the amended resolu-
tion, the whole base for clerical promotion will be broadened, and 20,000
city employees eventually will be affected.

In other words, if you have a competitive
position and receive $1,440, and the max
mum of your grade is $1,800, you are en-
titled to yearly raises of $120 untit you
reach $1,800, ‘lo rec more you must be
promoted from an eligible list. Then the
increments begin again until your
$2,400 (provided there isn't another g
maximum in between the $1,800 and $2,400
levels).
The Denehy decision holds that the em-
ployee is entitled to all of the salary raises

stop at $1,740 if the maximum is $1,800, The

The Wexler decision fixes the “annual
increment date” as the anniversary of ap-
pointment, not the annual budget date,

misunderstand, give increments to those not
specifically provided for under the Me-
Carthy law. Only those holding lower paid
competitive positions receive the annual
raises, No provisions are made for non-
competitive or labor ¢

Low Salaries
HE CITY apparently has little trouble
finding money for lavish airports, ex-
pensive swimming pools and elaborate park-
ways, But it can’t seem to find funds to in-
crease the salaries of many employees who
are now paid on a near-starvation basis,
‘Thousands of workers still are receiving le:
than $1,000 a year,
The salary schedules of hospital helpers
are especially miserly, What has happened
to glowing promises by many officials to put
an end to labor exploitations in the city
service?
Christmas Vacations
HIS year Christmas and New Year's
Day fall on Monday. We believe that
thousands of city employees would be es-
pecially grateful if Mayor LaGuardia pro-
claimed holidays for the Saturdays before
December 25 and January 1,
This moye would give employees two
three y vacation periods, with little or no
loss to the city, If the Mayor takes this
suggestion, his proclamation ought to come
at least a month before Christmas, so em-
ployees can make their holiday plans in
advance,

Opposes ‘Civilian Cops’
Sir:
board duty, it is contended,
performs “police duty.”
Such a member is responsi-
ble for the prompt and regular sig-
naling by members on patrol, includ-
ing sergeants. It is his duty to report
derelictions of duty or signaling on
the part of a member. In effect, he
supervises control, In addition, he
must have a thorough knowledge of
police work and of laws to advise
those calling the station house for
information and advice.
These men are now to be re-
placed by low-paid civilian tele-
Phone operators. There is not a
single member of the force who
relishes this innovation, Desk ser-
geants, in particular, will be
fected. Calls for information, no
signal, etc, will be switched to
them. In a busy precinct where
the lieutenant is burdened by rou-
tine business of the precinct, the
preparation of aided cards, entries
in departmental records, commu-
nications, reports, etc, he will not
have the time to answer all calls,
Complaints of inattention are
bound to follow and police service
will suffer.
However, the greatest fear of the
men is that the quota of sergeants
will be reduced by taking them off
the switchboard. So far there has
been no official word of this. How
many potential sergeants haye been
discouraged from study for promo-
tion, or have used it as an excuse for
“laying down on the job,” is hard to
tell at this time, but there are many.
In every precinct there has been
since time immemorial a member of
the force who, in departmental
terminology, is known as the “95
man” or “clerical man.” Bright, ex-
ned men are given this assign-
writer and many of them are com-
petent stenographers. ‘They are the
right hand of the captain and the
desk officer, They must be thor-
oughly familiar with departmental
routine. They must have the im-
plicit confidence of the captain, as a
great deal of strictly confidential po-
lice information passes through their
hands,
‘These invaluable men are now to
be replaced by civilians at $1,200,
With confidential information at
their fingertips, will these men
keep such information sacred, or
are they likely to sell out
‘This is all in line with the aim of
the Mayor and the Civil Service
Commission to bring Into the Police
Dept. bright, cultured young college
men and raise the police job to a
profession, replacing uniformed
men with civilians at lower salaries,
they want to achieve two things: re-
duce the tax budget or use the money
saved for needed activities, and place
more uniformed men on patrol with-
out increased appropriation
Academically, the innovation
laudable; practically, it is of doubt-
ful value, In the final analysis, po-
work—99 percent of it—and requires
“guts” which is acquired in larger
measure on the sidewalks of New
York than on a college campus.
—A Frienp or THE Pouce,
| Urges Pension Change
| Sir) In my judgment there will be
| nothing more important before the
next session of the Legislature than
the matter of provision for reor-
ganization of unsound pension sys-
tems throughout the State, and par-
ticularly in the City of New York,
where the unsound Police and Fire
pension systems have unfunded
liabilities amounting to over $400,-
000,000,
Hf the $400,000,000 in tiabili-
ties of the Police and Fire pen-
sion systems become debts of the
City in the strict sense of the
word on July 1, which I believe
they will, the City will be un-
able to borrow a dollar for new
schools, new hospitals, new
sewers and other essential pur-
poses for many years to come.
Our policemen and firemen are
entitled to liberal treatment for
the splendid services they per-
form, but not to the serious det-
riment of all classes of our pop-
ulation,

Readable
Sir: I have been following
The Leader ever since it first
appeared on the stands two
months ago, As an old hand at
Civil Service newspapers, 1
would like to compliment your
editorial staff on one particular
point which places The Leader
head and shoulders above the
field, I refer to the way in
which your exam requirements
are listed.
Heretofore, Civil Service pa-
pers have merely printed the
notices as they come from the
Commissions, paying no atten-
tion to their readers. It has
been as much of a testi for a
prospective candidate to learn
the requirements of an exam as
it has been for him to take the
exam itself,
The Leader policy of printing
requirements in simple, readable
form, yet accurate to the last
point, has won the thanks of this
veteran Civil Service exam-
taker,

ing power would force the financing
of indispensable improvements
through the current tax or expense
budget. To make way within the
limit of the expense budget, for cap-
ital expenditures which could not be
postponed, would compel retrench-
ment in operating costs all along the
line. The current expense budget is
within $385,000 of the Constitutional
tax limit, The first place where such
compulsory retrenchment would be
sought would be in the payroll. A
general pay cut for all or a sub-
stantial reduction in the number of
employees inevitably would result,
Although the Constitution protects
the pension rights of City employees,
it gives them no such protection as
to their tenure of office or their sal-
aries. If the City is unable to pay
pensions based upon present pay-
rolls and at the same time meet its
payrolls, it cannot reduce the pen-
sions but it can and will reduce the
payrolls,
The Legislature at its last session
took no action on the Seelye-Bab-
cock bill for pension reform. A
similar measure will be introduced
when the Legislature meets in Jan-
uary. Enactment of this measure is
the solution of the problem that
faces all City employees, The new
measure should be treated as an
emergency measure by both the
Governor and the Legislature.

Answers Today's Needs
Sir: Seward Brisbane's “Merit Man”
last week of Martin F. Heneghan
has resulted in many inquiries com-
ing into the offices of the Associa-
ted Civil Service Employees, at 100
BE. 42nd St. These have been an-
swered immediately upon their
receipt.
These inquiries have shown the
great interest of the Civil Service
employees in the program as set
forth by the organization. As the
Associated Civil Seryice Employees
do not seek to take members from
other groups, but rather to bring
such members in along with those
in the Civil Service who are mem-
bers of no organization, the Asso-
ciation is the answer to the needs
of the Civil Service today.
It is particularly gratifying to note
|the number of inquiries about the
specially-created low-cost disability
plan for the members of the Asso-
ciation, which shows that Civil Sery-
ice employees are thinking of his
or her welfare, ~

Early Poverty
Abraham Lichterman’s life is the story of a
man who has always striven to aid human
Progress, with little thought of recognition or
reward. His voice still shakes a little when he
recalls the poverty of his youth. His family
lived for years in a cellar without heating
lighting or plumbing. When the glass fell tt
of their onl) window, they had to tack a quilt
across the opening.
As a boy, Lichterman swept up ina drugstore,
slept under the counter at night, and dreamed
of becoming a doctor of medicine,
He saved enough to get his doctorate at the
Brooklyn College of Pharmacy in 1915, but he

Soon after he left college Lichterman took g
Civil Service exam for Pharmacist, and topped
the list. He went to work at a salary of $960 4
year. In 1920 he became Inspector of Foods,
later was made Inspector of Drugs. He held
this post until 1935, with the exception of 4
period of seven years, when he ran a private
drug business,
Lichterman helped ban loose milk from New
York City, aided in curbing the use of coloring
substances in soft drinks. He established 4
method of measuring moisture content in
meats, and put a stop to watering.
The $5,500 position of Director of Foods and
Drugs has been vacant for 20 years. Many
persons who haye watched Lichterman’s work

for his long service with the Post,

hear that according to the commission’s belief
there will probably be no appointments to the
Fire Dept. below number 3,600,
Would you be kind enough to explain whet he!
that number refers only to the completion o!
the three-platoon system or to the duration of

There also is controversy on the question of

Guild Hits Board Rule
On Hiring Substitutes
Charges of false economy were levelled at the Board ¢f

until a teacher has been absent three days, in a statemen

alleged points at which the
Board of Education loses:
1, When a teacher is absent
subject classes, one prefect cl:
one building assignment, are di

each of whom already has seven (ly
assignments for the day. The calibey
of instruction in each class is bound
‘to suffer,
2, Teachers from other depart
ments are drafted when teachers iq
the same department are not ;
able to cover an absent colleag
3, When three or four teache
absent on the same day, cc
their classes becomes a physical
possibility, and students are se
study halls,
4. The fact that half pay is de.
ducted for each day of absence
caused many teachers to come
school when they were in no c
tion to teach.
This policy places the substi
“an almost hopeless situation,
