Parley Planned This Week
ALBANY, Feb, 5—The LEADER
last week gave the gist of the
Governor's views concerning pay
rises as they were to be expressed
in his budget message, Here are
specific sections of the message
dealing with this problem, as sub-
mitted to the Legisiature on Jan-
Uary 30,
“Provision is made for an ur-
gently needed increase In the pay
of our State employees and for
unayoldable increases in the costs
of operation resulting from the in-
flationary effects of our national
defense effort... .
$30,000,000
“... the financial plan provides
a State Purposes reserve of $30
million for civil defense, State
employee salary. Inogeases, special
and supplemental bills, and other
contingencies which the uncer.
talnties of the times may require,
From this, it would appear that
only $30,000,000 would be available
for a variety of purposes, A 15
percent across-the-board pay in-
crease, which is proposed by the
Civil Service Employees Associa,
tion, would itself cast about $30,-
900,000.
Not Adamant
However, there is ovidence that
the administration's stand is not
necessarily adamant, Por the Bud-
get Message reads:
“That portion of this budget re-
lating specifically to the current
emergency i# final only in so far
as our Vision at the moment can
carry us, because some aapeects of
the ‘emergency which might re-
|quire State action are still be-
|elouded in uncertainty, 1 expect
that later in the legislative ses-
}slon our needs for additional
emergency expenditures for the
| protection of our people will be-
|come clearer, If these additional
expenditures should be larger

last resort <— may become un
avoidable, I hope this necessity
will not arise, but if it docs, £
shall not hesitate to recommend
the necessary financial action.”
Moreover, a high State budget
official told The LEADER that
whatever the wage negotiations
between employees and admini-
stration should bring forth, the
necessary money would be found,
Revenue Prospects
The Governor's message Indi-
cated that revenue prospects for
the State -are excellent. Says he:
“For the next fiscal year, 1951-
52, our present tax structure. is
expected to yleld revenues of $941
million, ‘This ts $65 million more
than expected in the elirrent fis-
cal year,”
But, continues Mr, Dewey, “The
anticipated revenue increases of
$65 million will approximately bal-
ance our @nticipated expenditures
of the mext fiscal year,”
Services at Minimum,
Tn another section, he says,
carrying forth statements he had
made earlier: "My recommenda~
tions for current operations of
our State government are con-
sistent with my directive of six

ment and division heads, that the
national emergency requires us to

and reduce them if possible, , . .”
And then: ", . . every vacant po-
sition will be scrutinized cavefully
before it is filled and no new po-
sition has been allowed unless
Proven essential, .""
Program to Come
In a specific reference to the
salary situation, Mr, Dewey states:
“It was my expectation that I
could include in this message a
specific recommendation concern-
ing the adjustment in salaries of
our State employees, Because of
the time required to do a thorough
Job, I do not now have a specific
recommendation to make. T hope
to be able very soon to submit to
your Honorable Bodies a recom-
mended program of salary in-

ALBANY, Feb, 5—Heartening
confidence that state employces
would receive ‘thelr requested 15
percent pay raise as an answer to
a “fair request for an intelligent
and industrious day's work” was
expressed by Jesse B, McFarland,
president of the Civil Service Em-
Ployecs Association, in the prin-
cipal address of the dinner meet-
ing of the Western Regional Con-
ference in Buffalo on January 27,
President McPariand’s talk be-
fore 200 conference members
climaxed a series of encouraging
speeches by State officials and lea-
istators during the day-long meet-
ing, all devoted to aspects of salary
increases, the Federal freeze on
‘waxes, and speculation on the pro-
visions for State employees in the
annual budget.
Most in Your Minds
“I want to talk to you only
about the thing that is most in
your minds” said Mr, McFarland.
“TI am aware you are anxious to
know about a salary increase and
what the wage freee means to
you. Upon consultation with the
Attorney General's office, T have
Jearned that it does not affect the
sovereign state of New York.
Redouble Efforts
“Tonight I want to urge you to
redouble your efforts in behul! of
yourselves and all State employees

rightfully yours,” he continued.

In conclusion he counselled

Overhaul of State Pension
System Is Proposed
ALBANY, Feb. 5 — Legislation
calling for revision of the state
civil service retirement system
has been introduced by State Sen-
ator Seymour Halpern and As-
semblyman Samuel Rabin,
‘The bill to bring the system up-
to-date, covers the second half
of the major over-hauling of the
state's complex collection of civil
service and retirement statutes,
The first half is already in the
hands of a temporary commission
headed by Assemblyman Pred W.
Preller of Queens,
So complex is the subject of
civil service law revision, that the
legistation which set up the first
commission confined itself solely |
to civil service statutes, The re-|
tirement system remained as @
separate subject. The Halpern-
Rabin bill is concerned with this
Job.
The measure calls for creation
of a temporary commission to
make “a thorough study and anal~
ysis of the retirement statutes of

The True Story
Of John Richards
JE RICHARDS aren't on relief—but almost. The cour-
age of the Richards is great—but the struggle to live is
intense. John Richards is a State employee—a file clerk
whose salary is now $2,282 per year, That is $2,232 before
deductions for income tax, retirement benefits and a loan
he has taken agaist his pension, Actually John Richards
gets a check of $68.09, twice a monta from the State or
$186.18 every month. That's less than $34 a week. This
ig the money he has to pay his rent, buy food, and buy
clothes, Obviously nothing else. Mary Richards, his wife,
and their one-year old son share these pay chee
John Richards is an ordinary American fellow. He
fas done the ordinary American things in life—gone to
school, gone into the Army, got mar ried, started a family.
He read about the promise of a career in the State ser-
vice and took an examination, made the grade and was
appointed. That was three years ago. Things were hard
then—but not too tough, Now they are different, and John
is spending more than he earns, His rent is modest for a
very modest apartment in terms of Siar ‘3 living, He pays
$50 a month. His household expenses—the cost of his milk,
bread, meat, potatoes and incidentals comes to $120. His
power bill and the telephone come to $15. For his medi-
cal costs, clothing, and everything else, John has had to
borrow. He’s in debt, He has a note with the Credit Union
General Manager
and another with a loan com:
add up to $30.00 per month.
Altogether it costs John
pany. Payments on the notes
just to get along almost $60
a month more than he earns. This is just the barest ne-
cessitios.

Mechanics
Win Raise in
Court Case
Eleven machine shop assistants
employed by NYC Board of Educa~
tion won a $350 pay raise and
about $1,000 each in back pay in
a decision handed down by Su-
preme Court Justice Bernard Bo-
pee The men contended, toroees
attorney, A. Mark Levi
they should receive theta same
pay as the shop maintenance men
appointed prior to 1942, Men in
both titles do the same week.
The Board, in an economy
move, set up the machine shop
assistant title in 1942, so that
those newly hired would be paid
less, but the pay of incumbents
would not be reduced. The Court
found « yeasonable basis had
existed for this procedure, but
contended that the reason has
ceased to exist, since the pay of
both has been increased $900,
The decision requires the Board
to make the machine shop assist-
ante’ par maximum $3,800, the
same as that of the shop mainte-
nance men.

Botanical Employees’
Pension Bill Hits Snag
‘The employees of the New York
Botanical Gardens are trying to
get a favorable decision on inclu-
sion in etther the State Employees
Retirement System or the NYC
Employees Retirement System, At
present, they are not under any
retirement system, The employees
of the Metropolitin Museum of
Art and the Museum of Natural
History are under pension sys-
tems of those institutions, plus
Bocial Security,
Patrick Connolly, chairman of
the pension committee of the Bo-
tanical Gardens employees, sald
that inclusion would cost about
$31,000 a year.
Bills have been introduced in
the Legisiature to include the Bo-
tanical Garden employees in the
State and N¥C retirement sys~-
tems, in an effort to obtain en~-
actment of one, However, the one
concerfing the NYC pension sys-
tem has been found objectionable
to the N¥C Administration because
it would give the employees with
five years of service full credit for
all their time spent as employees
of the Gardens, This back credit
cost would be borne by the City.
City employees generally get
credit for back time, by doubling
their future contributions toward
the annuity account for the num~
ber of years of past service. Thus
they pay their annuity costs, while

Bernard A. Collins, who nad been

Seventh Deputy Police Commis-
sioners. The two retired on Chief
Inspector's pension, Had they been
retired as detectives they would
eM | have received a retirement allow-
ance of $2,507. The difference,
$3,413 a year, is at stake in the
suit, and represents what the
Court held was a gift of public
funds, There's no dispute that the
men would be entitled to the
lower pension.
Mr, Purey applied for retirement
the same day that he was appoint-
ed Deputy Commissioner, He re~
signed on August 24 last. Mr. Col-
ling didn’t act so quickly, but re-
resigned on October 31.
Justice Benvenga held that the
law governing police pensions can
not really be regarded as a pon-
sion statute, becitise in cases of
resignations rapidly following op-
pointment as a Deputy, the peri-
odic payments into the annuity av-
count are not for past services or
meritorious work, The Court said
that the payments “cannot be re-
garded in any other light than as
a ‘will’ of public funds,”
Pension or Gift? 4
Mr, Preiss thought that the
Court confused pensions with
gifts,
“I think the decision is far-
reaching in its scope,” said the
eminent attorney, “It affects not
only the two Deputy Commus-
sioners mentioned in the proceed~
ings, but every Police Commis-
sioner and every Deputy Police
Commissioner who has retired in
the last 1) years who has not been
a Chief Inspector, It also affects
every member of the police force
‘who ls or may become Police Com-
missioner or Deputy Police Com-
missioner.
“I think that the Court has
confused pensions with gifts, and
has failed to take into considera~-
tion the broad and basic principles
underlying our pension system —
@ system that has had a long his-
torical development against great
odds and opposition.”
Lawyers familiar with the Po-
lice Pension System, and public
employees retirement systems gen~
erally, agreed with Mr, Preusse;
others felt that the Court had de
cided the case correctly, on the ad-
ditional ground thay the appoint-
ments as Deputies ade in

Justice Benv ry took bspyicg
cin constitutional grounds, to the
provision of the Police Pension
Pund Law that permits immediate
retirement at a Chief Inspector's
pay. He pointed out that if the
service as Commissioner or Deputy,
had been for even so short a time
as six months, there might be
some support for the theory that
the added retirement allowance
was not a gift, but the provision
allowing retirement immediately
on appointment made the Jaw un=
constitutional,

Thomas E. Murphy, wouldn't be

eannot direct Purey and Collings

Pund the alleged illegal payments
made to them.”

The tax article in the January
9 issue was written by Herman
Bernard, who replies as follows:
The statement I made was: “In-
cidentally, a husband may never
claim his wife as a dependent,”
‘That statement in true and is based
on the Internal Revenue Code, It
is alyo borne out ia the free book-
let the reader refers to, while in
the more comprehensive booklet,
“Your Pederal Income Tax,” pre-
peed by the Treasury Department
urea of Internal Reyenve, the
statement is made (P, 12) that "a
wife (or husband) is never a de-
pendent of a spouse for income
tax purposes,”” Cemphnais in orig-
inal).
In my book, "How to Save
on Your Income Tax Re-
‘our wife
is your exemption because she ls
your wife, if she meets the other
requirements.” These other re-
quirements (P, 4) aye (1) that

on that list, no dependency may

Robert A. Joyce, a member of the New York City Fire Department for 15 years, died
recently of the occupational disease which strikes down so many firemen — a heart attack. Fire
man Joyce, responsible for the saving of many other lives, lost his own at the unripe young age
of 42. Mr. Joyce left behind him HIS WIDOW AND EIGHT CHILDREN.
Mrs. Joyce now receives the “magnanimous” amount of $11.83 weekly, as a widow's
pension, Since a fireman's wife and children can get just as hungry as any other family, Mrs.
Joyce — unpleasant as the idea was — made inquiry as to how much she might expect if the
family went on home relief. A mother of eight, she learned, gets about $60.00 per weck from the
city — the same city that gives her, a fireman’s widow, one-sixth that amount.
Mrs. Joyce does NOT want to become a ward of the city — but she knows that she and
her children can’t live on her miserable pension. Other firemen’s wives also complain that they
ean’t buy groceries with their husbands’ SUBSTANDARD TAKE-HOME PAY, as low as $37,
weekly, OR WITH CITY HALL PROMISES of a pay envelope that would be in step with the
high cost of living.
THESE ARE THE SHOCKING FACTS ABOUT
THE NEW YORK CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT
{from a study made by two reputable independent survey organizations)
® Firefighters and their families are in dire need — 50% are in considerable debt.
® Tiremen have not received a wage increase in 23 years. (an absolute minimum in-
crease of 36 cents an hour is needed, yet a paltry 8 cents an hour has been offered.)
® THE CITIZEN'S BUDGET COMMISSION, New York newspapers, and other promi-
nent «roups LONG AGO RECOMMENDED AN ADEQUATE PAY RAISE for firemen.
® ‘At the very moment citizens are being urged to join auxiliary firefighting groups,
the regular Fire Department — the first line of defense in the event of atomic attack — is UNDER-
MANNED, UNDERPAID, and being allowed to DISINTEGRATE,
MR. CITIZEN, YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED. 5000 ADDITIONAL FIREMEN
ARE NEEDED IMMEDIATELY. MORALE IS SHATTERED. Firemen are being offered 8
cents an hour increase AFTR WAITING 24% YEARS . « « when 36 cents is the ABSOLUTE
MINIMUM NEEDED.

Outside Examiners
Headache to Commission
Another aftermath of hiring out~
aide examiners became # matter
of court record when 21 candi-
dates in the exam for promotion
to Electrical Engineer argued,
throtigh Attorney Salvatore Milaz-
vo, that the exum should be can-
celled, They complained that an
“open-book” type test was given,
in which candidates are allowed
to consult source books, and that | could be
some questions and answers in the
test were taken verbatim from a
study book, The Commission al
Jowed the petitioners in the present
case to take a substitute part of | test.
the exam, thought by the Commis-
sion to be devoid of obnoxiousness,
Not so, however, The 21 com-
boar that, though in the orig-
test a chotce of questions was
given, in the retest that Peres
was denfed. Supreme Court Jus-
tice Botein, who heard the argu~
ment, thought that the second test
was stiffer than the first, He de.
cided in favor of the candidates,
Double Failure Cited
Assistant Corporation Counsel
‘Thomas Crowe said there’d been
ho discrimination against the peti.
toners, since they were the 21
who had failed both the original
test and the retest.
The mystery of how the ver-
batim questions got into the exam
is sti Still unsolved. Commissioner of
Investigation James H.
questioned the outside examiner,
who couldn’t or wouldn't say how
those questions came to be select~
ed, A copy of Commissioner Sheils’
report was forwarded to the Civil
Service Commission. Nobody rec-
ommended that any action be
taken against the er, As
nothing worse than poor judgment
shown.
A previous embarrassment con-
fronted the Commission when an
outside examiner prepared the
questions in a Social Investigator
- Welfare Commissioner Ray-
mond M, Hilliard and numerous
others adversely criticized the test,
But the present Civil Service Com-
missioners were not in office at
that time.
What Court Held
Justice Botein made two main
Mca in effect as follows
1. The Commission had promis-
ed the ” candidates in the retest
“comparable right of selection
among questions in the new test
sections as was originally accord-
ed them,” but in the retest put
five absolute questions, with no
right of selection,
2. After the Commission had de-
elded that the five questions in the
original teat should be stricken
out, the only method by which all
the candidates could have been

asked how he computed the velo-
city of the stream at the nozsle of
the 100 foot line connected to the
standpipe and fed from a roof
tank, he stated that he estimated
the distance of the roof tank above
the standpipe connection and em-
ployed the formula 8 times the
square root of H.” The procedure
employed by the Lieutenant was
defective chiefly because (A)
stream velocity has no direct con-
nection with head (B) the formula
described applies to a closed sys-
tem and not to a flowing stream

nection above street level was
ignored (D) friction loxs in the

5 Win $1,950 a Year More;
$48,750 Back Pay Bid Lost
Five division supervisors in the,
Board of Education's Bureau of
Attendance now get $1,950 more,
making their salaries $9,750, un-
der a decision by Supreme Court
Justice Henry Clay Greenberg,
‘The five sued through thelr at-
torney, A. Mark Levien, also for
back pay from 1944, which was
far back a» the statute of limit
tions allowed. The Board
paid them on the same basis as
Principals of junior high schols
until 1931. The statute required
uch equality and its continu-
ance, Mr. Lovien contended.
The five were James E. Mo
Guire, Hiram L. Donnelly, Kath-
erine E. Manning, Eugene PF.
Gaiser and Clement Javete. Why
they missed out on $9,750 more
each, or $48,750 total, back pay,
was explained by Justice Green
berg in an opinion. He had grant-
ed back benefits in another case,
Barbarita yersus the Board of
Estimate, after a lapse of 14 years.
Pensions were involved in that
suit,
Other Cases
‘The petitioners in the Barbarita
curve, who had switched to the
NYC Employees Retirement Sys
tem, claimed that they had been
entitled to remain members of the
Street Cleaning Department Pen-
gion Fund. They learned of their
rights through # decision by the
Court of Appeals in the case of
Verdecanns us Curey, in
which Attorney Samuel Re of
represented the widow of a Sani-
tation Man, and recouped anuity
contribution In the Barbarita
case, Justice Greenberg held that
it was “pure sophistry” for the
City to contend that the switch
from the NYC Employees Retire-
ment System, back to the Street
Cleaning Department Pension

Pund, coullin't be made, since the
|employees had acted as soon as
they discovered their status,
There was & secondary prece-
dent, District supervisors in the
Attendance Bureau, juniors to the
district supervisors in rank, sued
promptly after they had lost
parity with assie\nts to princi-
pals in the teaching branch of the
Board, They won, The case was
jthat of Cummings versus the
Board.
“In this case,”
Greenberg, in reference to the
division supervisors, ‘for at leust
17 years the petitioners must have
been aware that their Junior offi-
cers were at all times maintained
in their position of parity, where-
as during that time the petition-
wrote Justice
(the ict supervisors))
were denied Sch parity, No rea-
son appears why, during the pre-
ceding 17 years, and ‘with knowl-
edge of the same facts, these peti-
tioners (the district supervisors)
should have failed to take action.”
Service Rating
Changes Voted
A resoltttion changing the regu-
Jations regarding service ratings
has been approved by the NYC
Civil Service Commission, The new
regulations are now in effect,
In general, the changes conform
the regulations to existing prac-
tice, except that e department is
now authorized to return any re-
ports that don’t come up to de
partmental standards to the re.
porting officer In the department,
instead of to the Commission,
Opinions Spotted Fast
Departments are to report only
such employees whose rating is
above or below standard, Such
names are posted in the depart~
ments, without disclosure of which
employees are in which group.
All reports, since they represent
departure from standard perform-
ance iby the employee being rated,
must now be substantiated by evi-
dence, This ls new,
“The new form requires specific
evidence and doesn’t allow opin-
fons,” said Margaret M. Reilly,
director of the Commission's Ser-
viee Rating Bureau. “Under the
new form, opinions will show up
as opinions, Thus the new form
gets awny from subjectivity
Deadline Extended
Those. employees whose rating
is standard will not receive in-
dividual notice henceforth. Re-
cently they had been receiving
it, For two years previous they
hadn't been. Now the posting of
names will negatively inform those
who are rated standard, since their
names will not be on the lst.

Show Up for $1,860 Clerk Jobs
By HERMAN BERNARD
ANOTHER HIRING pool will be
held by the Municipal Civil Serv-
ice Commission, at 299 Broadway,
on February 14 and 16, to get ell-
gibles to fill Clerk, Grade 2 jobs
permanently. More than 1,000 eli-~
gibles will be called, They shop
fround at desks where personnel
directors or clerks of the depart-
ments sit, and shop for the best
geographical locations and hours
they can get. The eligibles thus
don't have to troop around front
department to department; also
the personne! directors and clerks
of the departments don't have to
spend a lot of time interviewing| as
eligibles who want jobs in other
departments,
Impellitteri to Decide Pay
The Clerk hiring pool has proved
a highly democratic institution. In
the last one, held recently, many
women showed up, Among them
Were some Wweatin:
others almost in rag’
and the maimed, both
women, Were among t
age brackets wore
ously represented. Widows ¥
numerous, Women left alone in
the world, even if they don’t need
the money, want a job, to t
iy
maintain their morale and sustain
their interest in life. Many women
seek jobs an Clerks at the $1,860
ay for more pressing economic
sons. But they may get the
$250 general Increase on March 1.
‘That question will be decided this
ae by Mayor Impellitteri him-
self.
“There are many men and wo-
men over 50 years old among those
who respond,” said Paul M. Bren-
nan, Director of the Commission's
Medical-Physical Bureay, where
they go through the final stage of
the test before being called to hir-
ing pools,
Late Sixties No Go
‘The fact mentioned also by |
Syivester G, Connolly, Director of
the Certification Bureau, whe
been active in promoting the hi
onnally
eligibles
noticed
were
thelr sixties. ‘The legal maximum
age for hiring Is 70, but few ¢
near that age are ever hi x“
Jaually they can't get by the
medical or the slight physical test. |
Not only the bers of the
mink ie, but also men dreased
in $150 sults and overcoats show
