Mr.
SYRACUSE, Feb, 7 — A mes-
sage from Governor Averell Harri-
man, read at a meeting of the
Central Conference of the Civil
Service Employees Association by
Chairman Alexander A, Falk of
the State Civil Service Commis-
sion, called for hearings in all
disciplinary cases affecting em-
ployecs of the State and its le-~
calities, and improved grievance
“machinery” in the State govern-
ment.
The Syracuse chapter of the
Association was host to the Con-
ference, The meeting of the Con-
ference, and the chapter dinner
at night, were held at the Hotel
Onondaga,
Maxwell Lehman, editor and
co-publisher of The LEADER, was
the principal speaker at the chap-
ter_dinner.
Governor Harriman’s message
follows in full;
“I extend my warmest greetings
to the members of the Civil Serv-
ice Employees Association meeting
tonight at Syracuse, I regret that
I cannot be with you personally
but am happy that the President
of the Civil Service Commission
is able to represent me.
“Since my inauguration, T have
had the opportunity to meet and
work with a considerable number
of civil servants, I had expected
in advance that I would find the
continuing staff of New York
State Government to be com-
posed of able, conscientious, de-
Votéu people, but I have found
this ‘to be true in even greater
measure than I had anticipated. It
ig my hope to meet and get to
know many more gembers of the
civil service, and you may be as=
sured I am deeply concerned with
your welfare and with develop-
ment of tho civil service as a sate
infying career— because @ gov~
ernment consists of the people in
it and its competence and effi-
clency are in direct relation te
the extent to which it can at-
tract and hold in its service com~
Petent, efficient, and loyal em~-
ployees,
“From my own experience im
government and from my obser=
vations over the years, I have de-
veloped a deep belief in the merit
principle in selection of govern~
ment personnel and in the civil
service system as the basic meth-
od of assuring the application of
the merit principle in government
positions. So my abject will be
to preserve and strengthen the
civil service system in New York
State,
Cities Glaring Defect
“One of the most glaring de-
fects in the civil service system
is the absence of a syatem extend-
ing throughout the government
which will assure that an em-
ployee against whom serious
charges have been brought will
get @ fair and adequate hearing,

not had that right, While some

to employees not covered by law,
this practice has not been unl-
form.
“Next

Looking Inside
By H. J. BERNAR
According to Hoyle,
And Not According 7o Hoyle
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES continue to be increasingly alarmed over
wanton firings. Noning so underminen.an employee's morale as the
feeling that the job security he thought he had, as a competitive em-
ployee, turns out to be only a dream, elther because department
heads abuse broad powers, or appelinte bodies possess only ineffectual
ones,
‘The competitive employee, accused in a disclipinary cane, has the
fight to appeal an adverse finding to the Civil Service Commission.
If the U, S, Civil Service Commission, deciding such ap appeal, finds
the employee was wrongfully discharged, it may order him reinstated,
and grant him back pay, In New York State, and local governments
within the State, the Commission may decide appeals, but bas no
authority to order reinstatement even when anything short of rein-
statement is a miscarringe of justice. It has no authority to grant
back pay. It may clear the employee's name, and when the depart-
ment that dismissed him refuses to take him back, may put his
name on a preferred eligible list, from which he may be appointed
to some other State joy, if he can find pne, and a department head
is willing to appoint him. Governor Harriman wants this cahnged,
A bill drafved by the Preller Commission has been introduced in
the State Legislature to give the State Civil Service Commission au-
thority to order reinstatement, and also the employee the right to be
represented by counsel, in appeals in disciplinary cases. The Civil
Servico Employee Association, which has been fighting for years for
these remedies, is having its own bills introduced, on the subjects. It
is heartening to see the Association getting such influential backing
at this time, when it Is so desperately needed. Defeat was the fate of
such bills for several years. in
An appellate body is appellate in maine only, but not in fact or
in law, unless it has the power to decide, and to enforce its decisions,
The United Staics Supreme Court, and the State Court of Appeals,
would be Almost powerless, did they not have the U. S. Marshal and
the Sheriff an enforcing officers,
Security und loyalty cases almost monopolize the news of loss
of public jobs. Many such dismissals are marked by what employee
Broups call denial of basic rights, In the Pederal government, particu-
larly glaring cases have been exposed. On this score al) seems to be
more or less quiet on the State and local government fronts,
Cases of unwarranted dismissal on other than loyalty of security
grounds, however frail or premeditated the charges, occasionally arise
in State and lock! governments, too, In NYC, the employees seem to
have been singularly spared. s
succession,
A Matter of Public Concern
Not only public cmpioyees, but the public itself, becomes alarmed
over unjust removals, Our country tk proud of the protection ite af-
fords the accused, even in criminal cases, We realize that the pre-
sumption of innocenve, and the requirement for proof beyind a rea-
snable doubt, sometimes enables the guilty to go free. We have a
saying, Better that all the guilty go free, than that one innocent
person should suffer, In civil matters, as under administrative
Jaw, proof against the dependant is required only by a preponder-
ance of evidence. The means preponderance against the defendant,
not, us one might suppose from some recent public employee cases,
preponderance of evidence of innocence!
THE EISENHOWER ADMINISTRATION would like to choose
its own appointees for responsible administrative positions now held
by competitive employees, arid has resorted to various devices for
doing so, At first it intended to switch 100,000 or so competitive jobs
into Schedule C, one of the three divisions of the U, 8. exempt class,
‘The switch has been going on for nine months, but only some bun-
dreds of jobs have been affected, Many competitive employees were
moved into them. The question arose whether the protection of their
competitive status went along with them, including safeguards againat
summary removal, and some protection in cases of layoffs, The re-
tention preference of veterans is not involyed, The Department of
Justice decided that the competitive employee who made the switch
could be dropped at will, and discontinued the service of Leo A. Roth.
who filled a post of attorney. Mr. Roth sued for reinstatement, say~-
ing that he was protected under the Lioyd-LaPollette Act of 1912.
The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals upheld him. He has been re-
instated, with $15,000 back pay.
One would expect that if the court interpreted the Act as af-
fording protection against the summary removal of employees who
have competitive status, thal the Commission would follow that
course, now and in the future, unless Congress repealed or amended
the Act. But the Commission has decided that any competitive em-
ployee transferred to # position in one of the three groups of the
U. S, exempt class (called the “excepted” class in general), will mot
have such protection, with minor exceptions, if the transfer takes
Place after the day the President's executive order setting up the
new job security plan went into effect. Says the Commission:
“Beginning on January 23, 1955, where a proposed appointee to
® Schedule A, B, or C position is serving in the competitive service
he shall not be appointed until he is advised in writing that accept-
ance of the excepted appolntinent will result in bis leaving the com-
petitive service, This will put the employee on notice that, upon
scoeptance of the excepted poaltion, he will no ignger be under the
protection of the Lioyd-LaFollette Act.”
The two immediately previous administrations did an adhesive
job in making appointments to the competitive class, and in cover-
ing employees into the competitive clas, but did it according to Hoyle,
and not only without attempt usurp the powers of Congress, but in
gome Instances wnder the authority of bills Congress gladly passed,
‘The successor Administration should proceed also according to Hoyle,

Depts. Warned of
Vets Protection
In Exempt Jobs
ALBANY, Feb. 7 — In an opin- pr unless they qualify as exempt
fon sent to ail State departments | volunteer firemen
and agencies, Attorney General
Jacob K. Javits discussed the types
of jobs in which war veterans and
exempt volunteer firemen are pro-
tected against removal. The pro-
fection ts afforded by Section 22
of the Civil Service Law, which he
construed at the request of Oscar
M. Taylor, former president of the
State Civil Service Commission,
Btate Civil Service and veteran
organizations.
Of particular importance ts the
Protection afforded to holders of
exempt jobs. Mr. Javits said that
exempt, and even some unclassl-
fled employees, like teachers, are
Protected. Many of these job’ were
filled under the preceding Repub-
Hiean Administration.
Korean Vets Not Protected
Mr. Javits found that veterans
of the Korean conflict period are
not protected, but he fayars
amendment of the law to include
them, and promised to support
any such amendment.
Mr, Javits did not say whether
he would favor a retroactive
amendment, but presumably would
on the theory that the purpose ts
to correct an oversight of the

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1955
Another Year for
The Preller Commission
two-inch thick document, revising and re-writing the |
State civil service law, has been introduced in the
Assembly. Thus far, there is no Senate introducer.
Assemblyman Preller headed a legislative commission
which for three years worked over the provisions of exist-|
ing law, heard and considered hundreds of suggestions for
changes, and finally came up with the results.
Chances of passage at this session of the Legislature
are nil. In fact, the cost of just printing the Senate bill
would be $1,500, and Senate leaders are reluctant to stand
the expense, and the bill will simply lie around for the
session, and then be buried.
Some of the changes suggested are slight. Some are
far-reaching, like a proposed ban on the veto power of the
budget director over changes in pay rates; and the pro-
posal to allow hearings and counsel in disciplinary ac-
tions. The Commission was split down the middle on the
proposal to repeal the Condon-Wadlin anti-strike act.
In matters so momentous to the future of civil service
in the State and all its localities, the only proper course is
to drrange for public hearings. All interested groups and
individuals should have ample opportunity to study and)
then to be heard on the new proposals. The State Civil
Service Commission only recently made additional recom-
mendations. Numerous bills to modify existing law are in|
this year's legislative hopper. If, as is likely, the present]
bill dies; and if the Preller Commission goes out of exist-
ence, then all the work it has done will amount to nothing.
The jungle of existing laws, rules, court decisions, contra-
dictions and confusions would continue.
In this situation, the only feasible step for the Legis-
lature to take is to continue for another year the Commis-
sion on Revision of the Civil Service Law. Since the quant-
ity of its work would be reduced, it could accomplish its}
remaining tasks, particularly the public hearings, on a
smaller budget than the $50,000 allotted it previously, But
continued it should be,
Appraising the NYC
Personnel Department
he time has come for an as
5,
essment of the work done
by Joseph Schechter, head of the NYC Department
of Personnel. And the judgment, as of now, must be that
he is doing an outstanding job. The classification, bogged
down for years, is now—despite its upside-down beginnings
—setting somewhere. The reorganization of the agency is
proceeding rapidly, with internal units being strengthened.
Examination techniques are being re-studied in order to
see how they can be improved. A new training program is
underway. Public access to information is greater than it
has ever been. And the employee organizations meet with
Mr. Schechter and his deputies on all their problems. Re-
cruitment is more energetically pursued than ever before.
The Civil Service Commission, once the most heavily criti-
cized of municipal agencies, has won the plaudits of all!
civie groups. Mr. Schechter is doing a creditable job; May-|
or Wagner's selection of him for the task has proven most |
fortunate.

NO CAREER STATUS, NO JOB
SHE'S DISILLUSIONED
Editor, The LEADER:
Tt Is inconceivable that the con-
version of indefinite employees to
career status after three years
service, should cause such hard-
ships to so many of loyal U.S. em-
ployees.
Although I was appointed from
the register of eligibles as the re~
sult of a competitive examination
in 1949, the first job offered me
Was a six-month temporary posi-
tion. Tt was an accepted fact that
the woman I was to replace (on
maternity leave) would not return,
and that I would be converted to
indefinite status, Subsequently the
woman resigned and I was re-
verted to indefinite status in May,
1951), I served a further three
and one half years in this position
until promotion in 1954
1 am now told that I am not
being automatically converted to
career status becatise Initially I ac-
cepted a temporary position
though T served three and one half
years as an indefinite In the same
position).
I was informed that I would
have to take another competitive
examination, which I did. It has
been particularly hard for me be-
cause I have been on sick leave
and in addition was caught by a
reduction in force, and presently
am unassigned. I might have
thought of resigning, but was told
that if I did, I would be resigning
as an indefinite employee, and
this would give me no re-employ-
ment rights.
I was told, the only way I could
get my career status now (being
between jobs) would be to accept
another position. This would con-
stitute my being assigned from
another register created as a re-
sult of the last examination 1
passed. |
Many would never have accepted
temporary appointments had they |
known what the consequences
would be,
feel cheated, frankly,
do quite a few other
sans, with much le

MORE CITIES ADOPT HOUSING CODES
LAST YEAR, eight U. S. cities adopted codes that set minimum
standards for housing.
The National Association of Housing and Redevelopment Oficiale
says that the outlook is for more codes in 1955. The reason for thie
is not only that cities have found housing codes a major tool ia
halting deterioration or blight, It is also that the Federal Housing
Act of 1954 stipulates that before a community can qualify for
federal aid for urban renewal it must show that it has a workable
program for @ full-scale approach to community rebuilding. And one
sign of “workability whether the community has adequate codes
and ordinances setting standards for health, sanitation, and safety,
The report noted that housing codes in general set standards
that fall into three categories: (1) those dealing with required fucili<
ties, such as lighting, ventilation, garbage disposal, and bath and
tollet accommodations; (2) those dealing with maintenance, such ag
keeping the house painted or making sure the fire escapes are im
working order; and (3) those dealing with occupancy, such as pre~
visions limiting the number of persons that may live in « room,
AN HONOR system in toll paying is on trial at three of the ata
ramps of New Jersey's Garden State Parkway, The system is in effect
between midnight and 8 a.m. when there is not enough business te

ordinarily stands says: We Trust Our Public, Please Deposit 10 Cents

Cultured Prose

add the Social Security benefits
in full to the present benefits of
the State Employees Retirement
System.
What U. 8. Law Requires
Although the report implies a
plan of employer and employee
sharing costs, some employees
have expressed willingness to pay
the cout of Social Security in full
if Social Security benefits’ in full
could be made cumulative to those
under the State Employees Retire-
ment System, Some wrote to Sen-
ator Frank E. Van Lare, Rochest-
ter Republican, who communicat-
ed with H. Etiot Kaplan, counsel
to the State Pension Commission,
| Mr. Kaplan, in reply, pointed out
that under the 1954 Federal legis-
lation, employees can get Socia}
Security by action of the State
Legislature, and consent of half
the employees affected.
Under present Federal legisla-
tion, employees pay half the cost
Any plan for their paying all the
cost would require new Federal
legislation, Senator Lare stated.
The idea of employees paying
the entire cost evidently has been
sidetracked,

And there is an outstanding
characteristic about his approach
to his new Job, He says: "I want

make statements Mke this, with
Levitt it sounds authentic.
Interested in Employees
One of the first items issued by
his office was a booklet explaining
social security to public employees.
Levilt is interested in civil serv-
ice and in labor relations. He
served as Board representative on
the staff relations committee of

Then he adds, “Any employee

vantages. If I see a secretary earn-

fect on payroll to about 7 percent,
and similar treatment of the pos-
tal service. However, the 5 would
come first, and anything extra
would not be general, but applied
to individual titles, as the results
of reclassification. In the postal
service their reclassification will
be called a job survey, but it will
be a reclassification, just the same.

Glimpse at Prospects
The prospects for retroactive
benefits of any pay raise are dim
if_not zero. The raise might take
effect for the pay period succeed-
ing the one in which it is signed
‘ou, by the President.
Pop-Up Bill
While there is much fault-find-
ing with what the Eisenhower Ad-
ministration ts trying to do about
pay, particularly from unions that
opposed him in the Presidential
election, the President's followers
point out that the pay increase. if
not as large as the employees de-~
sire, is part of a “package,” which
includes last year's significant
fringe benefits, and more fringe
benefits, like health insurance, in
*/ the works this year,
The Post Office Department is
trying to guide the postal pay in-
crease thinking of Congress, but
with poor results. A bill suddenly
Introduced at its request would
provide pay increases, along Ad-
ministration-backed lines, and in-
") troduce so-called reforms in the
job structure against which unions
are strongly opposed,

YONKERS, Feb. 7 — Charles
Hargadon, a senior employment
interviewer in the Yonkers office
of the Division of Employment,

last week. He was a member of
the Division of Employment chap-
ter, New York City and Suburbs,

The Senate committee will re=
port out favorably the bills for the

istration plan. The House Com

Union's Comment
‘The Government and Civic Em=
ployees Organizing Committee,
CIO, analyzes the situation im
senate and House as follows:
“Senate — True enough the 13-
member committee will clear S-1
(postal raise) very quickly, as well
as §-€67 (classified raise), inas=
much as six sponsors of the bills,
Chairman Johnston (D.,, S.C),
Hennings (D., Mo.), Pastone ‘D.,
RL), Neely @D., W.Va. ), Neu-
berger (D,, Ore.) and Langer (Ry
N. Dak.) need only one assist to
send the bill to the Moor, retraac-
tivity (to veto-day) and all. Ac-
tually they have two, possibly
three, colleagues on the commit-
tee who view 10 percent manda~
tory. But on the floor a different
story. What appears to be @
straight party issue—the Tke-men
pressing for the Administration
crumbs, tbe majority party for the
10 percent — rings a bell on the
voting record of the last session
of the 8rd. And the bell doesn’t
sound good, Two defections from
each side of the aisle can be ex-
pected, but they cancel out, and
Unis produce a yote of 49 to 47,
There it a remote possibility of
one, just one, additional GOPer
living up to now-forgotten party
platitudes and providing a 50-46
count. But there is also danger,
considerable danger, of some Dema
(additional to the two above)
viewing with alarm extra pennies
for payroll, Three, possibly two
of those defections from the ranks
and S-1 is through, It's a nip-and~
tuck deal in the Senate — but
there’s probably as little about
which to worry as to cheer at this
stage.
Situation in House
House — Over in the House
committee, though, a dilferent
story. Chairman Murray and
ranking minority member Rees
are committeed to the Adminis-
tration pitch — peanuts — and
the ten-percenters barely double
that (to four) in relationship to
the 25-member Committee. Pro-
ceedings will not move as fast om
this side, but the outcome is hard-
jy in doubt — no 10 percent, no
retroactivity, Bill, thus re
out, the real battle begins, It will
be much more difficult, than on
the Senate to pin-point in advance
probable or possible defections,
individual as well a8 total, but
even more diMcult will be tacking
on to the Committee version the
amendments necessary to match
S-1, There'll be tremendous hue
and cry, with Administration Iad-
dies well in the lead, and we'll be
treated to almost everything in
the book except a repeat of the
Senatorial suggestion that patri~
otic Pederal employees should
forego any increase at this crucial
time. (Crucial, let the advisor be
advised, describes also the oute
look of Federal employee families
every pay day these past few
years).”
The House Judiciary Committee
reported out of bill increasing ju-
dicial and legislative salaries te
$25,000. The Senate Judiciary
Committee did likewise.

the same conditions as are cn-
joyed by workers in private in-

ment; this is the recommenda-
tion of five members of the State

and Unemployment Insurance.
Under present Jaw, State em-
Ployees must have continuous em-
ployment of at least one year in
order to be eligible for benefits,
During 1954, Congress enacted
Jeaisintion bringing Federal em-
Ployees under coverage of the
New York Jaw, allowing them to
qualify for benefits under the
same torms aa cover workers in
private industry. Twenty weeks on
the job qualifies an industrial
worker to collect unemployment
