A Year's Work of the State Association

Past year has been one of trouble, of insecurity, of uncer-
ty, of economic strife, of strikes, of political breakdowns and

of heartbreaks, It is against this sad background that our record
must, be read and judged.

As to the past year we have tried first to keep our business
affairs in good order, to spend less money than we took in, to get
More for what we spent and to operate more efficiently and with
Jess lost motion,

In salaries, we agreed with the Governor on four major integrated
Propositions, (1) bonus 14—30 per cent for the year 1946-47, (2)
salary study to incorporate bonus in basic salary effective April ist
next year, (3) equalization of salaries with rates for similar jobs
in progressive industry outside, (4) correction of inequities within
the salary structure.

This commitment amounts, in my opinion, to a complete revision
of salary scales of the State, The Association is fighting for salaries
which are at once adequate and adjustable to living costs,

The recent hearings before the Salury Standardization Board
are intended chiefly to bring out inequities, supply data and suggest
needed changes, ‘

‘The Association has appeared in behalf of appellants at all
salary hearings, and has had a first conference with the Salary Board

on the methods of the salary study and the use of the salary data.

The report of the Salary Committes gives more detailed in-
formation.

Essential Program on Pensions

The Association has had several meetings with the Comptroller
and the officials of the Retirement System on proposed amendments
of the retirement law. Other organizations of municipal, New York
City and State organizations were represented.

The program of the Association has been the chief subject of
discussion and has been accepted as essential by many of the em-
ployee groups, The pension plans of the State, the teachers and
the City of New York have been compared and the State system

Commitment by Governor Dewey

The chief idealical bombshell of the year has been the proposed
new constitution of the Association, That issue is now settled. It
remains for each of us to roll up our sleeves and go to work to
keep the Association in its proud place as the largest, the most
intelligent and therefore, the most influential civil service association
in the State and in the United States.

Your officers have had conferences with the Civil Service Com-
mission and the Director of the Budget on the new attendanve rules
for departments and for the institutions, We have urged uniform
hours, vacation, sick leave, etc., for all State employees, While we
have not obtained strict uniformity, we have made a long step in
that direction. The five-day week was established in the departments
on an experimental basis for the summer months and has recently
become a permanent part of the civil service rules, For the in-
stitutions, the problem was more difficult because legislation is
required to put the five-day week in operation there, We have,
however, a solemn commitment by the Governor that a five-day,
forty-hour week, with extra pay for all overtime beyond 40 hours,
will be established as promptly as the necessary legislation can be
passed, *

ever the check te Mr. Myles,

of the Merit Award Board established by legislation, sponsored by
this Association. Awards are available for significant accomplish-
ments and for significant suggestions for the improvement of any
phase of civil service administration, This means in plain terms
that something new has been added to State government service
which should give it more vitality and interest for all State workers,
The employee can become something more than merely a hired man.
He becomes in some degree a partner in management. His braina
and his use of those brains in actual work situations become of
greater significance both to himself and to his career

This merit award law will be of value just to the extent that
the great body of State employees take the initiative in submitting
their ideas and their accomplishments in applications for awards.
The chapters of the Association have a great duty and a large op-
portunity here, It's up to you

So much for the past year, The Association has, I think, mad
notable advances, but none of these are more than first steps towal
our real objectives, Every advance made must be followed up and

made more complete and permanent. We have hardly been able in
these troubled times to do more than to stay about where we were
4 year ago. The bonus has been aten up by rising prices, Re

benefits are now really much less adequate than when th
waa first established, The future is certainly uncertain be;

ond any~
thing we have known, and only our best intelligence and united

effort will find the way to the objective of our Association, a civil
service merit system dedicated to service to the public, fair treatment

for all employees, a career service open to all, equal and adequate
ay for equal work, a standard of life that allows for durable satis-
‘action, and social security and some measure of contentment for

all retired employees,

THE LID'S OFF

COST OF LIVING SOARS HIGHER AND HIGHER

THE CIVIL SERVICE DOLLAR

GETS SMALLER AND SMALLER

‘The National Government is ripping away all wage controls!

Nearly all price ceilings have been removed!

All of which leaves people who work for the City in a tough spot! A really tough spot,
much tougher than those outside Civil Service realize.

‘Yes, we know it’s tough for nearly everybody nowadays. With steak at @ Dollar a pound,
the cost of milk, bread and clothing going up, with the prices of other commodities keeping
pace, there are but few of us who fall to feel the present-day economic pinch.

But unlike Civil Service workers, wage earners in private industry and business have had
access to relief not available to city employees, Both the State and Federal Governments have
set up machinery by which the economic burden on the private worker has been adjusted and
lightened through pay increases to match the mounting cost of living.

At this point, it might be well to mention for the record the fact that city employees receive
@ cost-of-living bonus. But, at the same time, Jet us see just what the cost-of-living bonus means
in terms of today's Dollar Value.

‘The bonus was given to city employees in July, 1944, to help them meet the upward trend
of prices, Since then, however, living costs have nearly doubled. Meanwhile, workers in prac-
tleally every line of endeavor outside Civil Service ranks have enjoyed increased wages, with the
Promise of even greater salary boosts.

IT’S SINK OR SWIM
FOR ALL OF US

As Uniformed Firemen of the City of New York, we recognize our economic plight as being
the same as that of every other city employee, What is happening to one group is happening to
all. The case of the city fireman is a good yardstick with which to measure city wages In the
light of today’s economic conditions.

The city firefighter has received a basic salary increase of only 5 per cent in pay since 1939.
What this actually means is that the fireman's take-home wage, including basic salary and
bonuses, has been increased by $3 in each semi-monthly paycheck. That's 20 cents a Day, when
you stop to figure it out,

Twenty Cents a Day! Not a very handsome pay boost, when you consider the per-hour pay
increases granted to workers in private industry. It’s almost tragic when you match it against
the 40 per cent per day increase in the cost of living.

It takes a lot of money to shelter, feed and clothe a family. Take the case of a fireman
with a wife and two children to support—and there are many, many firemen with more than
two children. The 20-cents-a-day increase in take-home pay since 1939 does not even meet the
increase in the price of the milk his family needs.

You can easily understand why so few firefighters and other city workers are able to make
both ends meet today. When the average city fireman gets through paying the rent and buying
the bare necessities of life, there is little or nothing left to give him that margin of security
| which is every man’s right to expect and receive.

‘There was a time when the element of security was one of the principal attractions in a
Civil Service job, It isn't today, because it isn’t there, Por how can a man feel secure when he
can't properly feed or clothe himself and his family? How can a man feel secure with the spectre
| of debt and hardship for his family dogging his footsteps and haunting bis dreams?

ORGANIZED LABOR WILL HELP
IN THIS FIGHT

‘The Central Trades and Labor Council of Greater New York, American Federation of Labor,
is squarely behind the move to improve the economic conditions of the city worker. The Council
already has gone on record for increased civil service salaries. Here are its recommendations,
which will shortly be made to Mayor O'Dwyer and the Board of Estimate:

To make the cost-of-living bonus permanent for all municipal employees,
For a 35 per cent increase over present salary schedules for all municipal employees

‘The Central Trades and Labor Council also proposes a special mesting of the Board of

Estimate to consider its recommendations and wij] submit a formal request to the Mayor that
such a special meeting of the Board be called.

It is our belief that no program can succeed, regardless of merit, unless it receives the full
Support of all interested parties. Our appeal for a salary increase for all city employees certainly
has merit because it seeks only to obtain a margin of security for a class of workers now facing
economic hardship. But it can not succeed unless all of us get behind It,

The Uniformed Firemen's Association of Greater New York ts solidly in line with the pro-
gram of the Centra) Trades and Labor Council, We ask that all Civil Service groups as well as
labor organizations made up of City employees, actively support this progressive move, It's now

or never!

President MacDonald spoke on
the membership drive. He said
that there were many Issues to be
brought up this year, and men-
tloned among them liberalization
of the retirement plan. He ex-
pressed the wish that all members
of the staff at State School join
the Association's local Chapter
because of the benefits the Asso-
ciation hopes to gain during the
year.
| Talk by Van Duzer

| Assemblyman Van Duzer said:

“These are most trying times.
On all sides we see unrest and
strife. There seem to be very few
instances where the organized em-
ployee appreciates the problems
of the employer and vice-versa.
However, I was always impr
by the orderly and intelligent
manner in which the Association
of State Employees presented the
problems of State workers and
sought equitable solutions, I can
honestly say that from my ob-
servation your organization has
only sponsored improvements in
working conditions, salaries, hours
of work, retirement and so forth,
that were as fair and just to the

taxpayer and to the interest of
the State as they were to its mem=
bers.

In this era of spiraling tv)
costs perhaps the matter
important to all wage earners,
including State employees, is that
of salary, As you will recall, at
the last annual dinner of your
Association this past February,
Governor Dewey gave his assure
ance that the War Emergency
Compensation would become part
of basic salaries in the next bude
get for the State fiscal year be~
ginning April 1, 1946. He also
Stated that salaries generally
would be surveyed and that pres~
ent inadequacies in basic scales
would be corrected.

Remedy for Inadequate Pay

“Tam informed that technicians
of the staff of the Salary Stand-
ardization Board have traveled
throughout many States surveys
ing salaries paid in private indus-
try, in Federal service and the
services of other States and muni<
cipalities. The information con-
cerning salaries thus gathered is
presently being compared with
Salaries for lke positions being
paid in our State Service, As a
taxpayer, as well as an Assembly-
man, I am vitally interested in
attracting to State Service and in
retaining the highest type of per-
sonnel, from the standpoint of
qualifications, training and ex-
perience. As a business man, I
know that efficient persaaned
meany economy in the long run,
Therefore, I am extremely hope-
ful that present inadequacies in
State salary schedules will be cor-
rected as a result of the survey
now being conducted and the rece
ommendations which will doubt
Jess be forthcoming from
Salary Standardization Board

“The forty hour week is now
80 common in industry and else~
where that there Is no doubt of
its propriety in State Service and
T am glad that Governor Dewey

sed | has stated that he will recommend

the plan and appropriations there-
fore to the next Legislature. There
is no doubt in my mind that the
hours of State workers should be
brought into the greatest possible
harmony. The duties and respon-
sibilities often differ, but so far
as it is humanly possible, the
hours should be fair and wpiform,”

Refreshments were served at the
close of the meeting,

Plan.
Increased Free Insurance
The free insurance originally

ranted under this plan on Novem-

r 1, 1945, will be continued and
increased. Effective November 1
1946 the amount of free insurance
will be 10 per cent of the insur-
ance issued each member, with a
minimum of $250 of free msurance
for any member insured for less
than $2,500, and will be guaran-
teed until November 1, 1949 which
is the 19th anniversary of the
Group Life Pian.

This extra insurance protection
without cost to the Insured mem-
ber is made possible by favorable
mortality experience under the
group plan. However,
able experience will only continue
as long as the participation in the
plan by membe remains at a
high level, Therefore it is import-
ant that each insured member
brings the opportunity
cost life insurance to the alten-
tlon of his fellow employees.

the annual basic salary of the In-

Increased Insurance Protection

However, effective November
Ist, 1946 the total salary of the
insured member, that is, basic
salary plus war emergency com-
pensation, will be considered in
determining the amount of insur-
ance to which each Insured mem-
ber is eligible. This will result in
the Increase of insurance coverage
of many insured members,

This change was accomplished
at the request of many members
who desired that gross salary be
considered in determining the
amount of insurance to be effec-
tive November Ist, 1946 because
of assurances they had received
that war emergency compensation
| would become part of basic salary
on April 1, 1947. Under the group
life plan on November Ist of each
year the amount of insurance is
adjusted in accordance with the

tions because of increased amount
of insurance or increased age will

State and City Pay
Head for an Increase

TL éveral wage situation of NYC employees by Mayor

O'Dwyer augurs well for a general pay raise. That the
municipal employees are entitled to it is beyond dispute,

The final settlement of the NYC salary question is one
which should be made on an equitable basis for all em-
ployees. Some employees may not like the new setup, which
provides for submission of employee claims through the
department heads, but the question of more pay to meet
higher living costs is too general to permit continued at-
tempts at piecemeal solution. The fact that such attempts
can’t solve the problem was the basis of an editorial in a
recent issue of The LEADER, What has happened is really
the inevitable.

The Mayor's committee might well consider sliding
scale salaries, based on the retail-price index, with an ap-
propriation included in the 1947-48 budget for the purpose.

All employee groups are asking higher pay, some 30
per cent, others 35 per cent, and the united efforts to achieve
a deserved end must result successfully, and in the not too
distant future, the Board of Estimate can act now. It need
not wait upon the Legislature.

The State is moving fast in the direction of pay in-
creases, but must have sanction from the Legislature.

STATE BOARD BACKS RAISES

State employees at the meeting of the Association of
State Civil Service Employees heard good news from Philip
E. Hagerty, Director of Research, Salary Sandardization
Board.

The new salary allocation to be reported to Governor
Dewey for submission to the next session of the State Leg-
islature will use the highest possible basé for computation.
The present basic salaries of the Feld-Hamilton schedules,
plus the added emergency compensation, will be the start-
ing point. Any additions thereto also will be considered
as part of basic pay. Thus all past gains would be-
come consolidated, This will have the effect of perpetu-
ating the increases and adding to present earnings a new
increment, The Salary Board's ideas thus concides with
those of the employees, The next step is to convince the
Legislature. This is a task that the employees must get

behind with a vengeance—well, at least with all their
strength,

MAURICE H. MATZKIN

bs Oo: satisfied that the case of

the indigent sick of the city
is one of the most important serv-
ees rendered by our beneficient
city, Those of us who have been
entrusted with the responsibility
of their care In our 28 city-owned
hospitals do not acquit themselves
of their trust if less than the best
attention and care js afforded to
them,”

That's the credo of Maurice H.
Matzkin, who, since the first of
the year, has been Deputy Com-
missioner of the NYC Hospitals
Department, He was appointed
by Commissioner Edward M. Ber-
necker,

For many years he has been a
practicing attorney in Brooklyn,
active in civil and charitable af-
fairs,

His post as second in command
of a large department with 24.000
employees, which runs 28 of the
largest hospitals in the country,
tending to 20,500 of the city’s ill
daily, includes a wide range of
duties, He says he enjoys every
minute of his work, particularly
lnbor relattons, legislation relating

to the department and legal prob-
lems.

Career -of Public Service

He has been most impressed
since his appointment with the
selflessness of the medical and
nursing staffs in the city hospitals,

From 1935 to 1942 he was As-
sistant Attorney General of the
State; Im 1943 he served as En-
forcement Litigation Officer for
OPA in Washington; in 1944 and
in 1943 he was Criminal Division
Attorney of the Department of
Justice in Washington until his
resignation to accept the Hospitals

ost.

As hobbies he lists golf and
being an ardent fan of the
Brooklyn Dodgers.

While Assistant Attorney Gen-
eral of the State, he acquired wide
experience in labor relations, His
work included hundreds of prose-
cutions under Labor Law and
Workmen's Compensation. In
case which he handled the con-
stitutionality of the Medical
Abuses Act was upheld, also the
legality of the law fixing hours
of rest for bus and truck driver,

The APL, the CIO and the Civil
Service Forum have each com~-
mended him for his fairness and
earnestness in attaining proper
labor relations with the civil serv-
ice and other employees.

A Square Deal —
To Employees
Who Are Let Out

By Arthur 8, Flemming
U. 8, Civil Service Commissioner

INCE V-J Day, more than a million persons have been laid off

by the Federal Government. Hundreds of thousands of addi
nnd Persons will be laid off in the months which lie immediately

The Federal Government, as an employer, Just can't afford to
overlook the fact that it has certain obligations to those who have
served it faithfully and who, without fault on their part, must be
severed from the payroll.

Up to the point, the government has recognized this obligation,
The regulations governing the hiring of temporary appointees pro=
vide that displaced Federal employees are to be given preference
immediately after disabled and non-disabled veterans.

A number of our departments and agencies have done and are
continuing to do everything within their power to place these persons

Private industry.

Kind of Program Needed

But we haven't gone far enough.
Here is the kind of a program which should be in effect:

1. All dismissed Federal employees should be entitled either te
unemployment compensation or a dismissal wage.

In this connection, Federal employees continue to be a group
set apart by themsedves, There is no reason at all why, on this
particular point, they shouldn't be treated in the same manner ag
persons dismissed from private employment, We will continue to
urge that Congress take such action,

2. When a career civil service employee is reached for reduction
in force, the agency In which he is employed should do everything
within its power to place him elsewhere in that agency, irrespective
of geographical or other considerations.

We recognize that tis is now being done by some agencies,
urge all agencies to follow a similar practice.

3, When the agency is unable to place such career employ:
the Civil Service Commission should take each individual case pew |

do everything within its power to place the career man elsewhere
in the Federal service.

This is the present policy of the Commission. We intend to

carry it out in just as vigorous a manner as possible,
we are to succeed, we must have the active cooperation of

each agency.

No career civil service employee should be displaced if there is
& vacancy elsewhere in the Federal service which he is qualified to fill,

In fact there Js serious doubt that a career employee shou!d be
displaced as long as there are jobs in other agencies, for which he
is qualified, being held by war service gr temporary employees,

Helping Displaced Workers to Find Job

4. Each department and agency should establish effective working
relationships with the United States Employment Service in order
to do everything possible to help all diplaced employees, whether war
service or career appointees, find jobs in private industry.
ia Some agencies have done this, Others have not. It should be

one.

Also, where persons connected with the agency haye contacts
with private industry, they should do everything possible to make
placements.

This !s a job which can be done best by the individual
They know their own employees, and they can and should tal
interest tn each individual employee.

25-Year Retirement

6. A career employee with 25 years or more of service should,
if he is involuntarily separated without fault on his part, be pere
mitted to draw a retirement annuity, irrespective of his age.

‘The Commission advocated the adoption of such a policy when
the Forand Bill was before the Congress. We believe that the bill as
passed would represent a sound policy, provided the requirement that
the persons must have reached the age of 55 is eliminated.

Special to ‘The LEADER

ALBANY, Oct. 22—Dr. Frank
L, Tolman, Director of the Divi-
sion of Adult Education and Li-
brary Extension, State Department

of 400 Jetters, extending greetings

and complimenting him. One of
the letters was from Governor
Dewey. The handsome binding
was done by experts of the State
Library,

Dr. Gosnell’s committee had
surreptitionsly obtained the letters |

token.

Dr, Gosnell the Starter

‘The proceedings were opened by
Dr. Gosnell, who introduced the
principal speaker, President
Edward Conway of the State civil
Service Commission. President!

miin’s notable services and pic-
tured him as an outstanding ex-
emple to all public employers.

To Dr. Lewis A. Wilson, Deputy
Commissioner of Education, Dr.
‘Tolman's boss, fell the happy task
of recounting in detail Dr. Tol-

Dr. Tolman to Retire, Partly

Dr. Tolman was deeply moved
by the fine tributes paid to him,
and the large attendance, and to
those who know him long and
well it appeared that he was at
a loss for words for the first time
in his life. He recovered in time.

Dr. Wilson's Appraisal

In recounting Dr. Tolman's
career, Dr. Wilson said

“Dr. Tolman came from seven
years of experience in the Uni-
versity of Chicago Library to an
appointment effective October 1,
1906, as Reference Librarian in
the New York State Library
came at what seemed a time of
cataclamic changes in the affairs
of the Library, but these were
soon to be overshadowed by the
great fire of 1911, and the instal-
lation of the remains of the Li-
brary In the new building in 1912.

“The destruction of his library
is the hardest blow for a reference
Hbrarian, but Dr. Tolman took it
calmly and set about restoring

Tolman will share his time with | ber of their professian.

He | Governor Dewey was the first con-

order. His associates still tell
thrilling stories of his beng
through the ruins of

smouldering
the west wing of the State Capitol,
helping to salvage the few vol-
umes that escaped
the fire. But he soon transferred
his activities to various ware-
houses and impromptu shelves,
sorting thousands of boxes of
duplicates and gifts which poured
in after the fire. ‘The stockpile of
duplicates had long ago outgrown
the Capitol, and was stored in
various places, Including a malt~
house, with the result that the
work of sorting them was carried
on in clouds of dust and mold.
But as one who worked with him
has declared, ‘If Frank could
stand all those cigars, I suppose
jhe could stand anythme like a

| litte dust.”

time to teach in the State Liorary)
School and to write extens.vely
for professional publications. Dur-
|ing the first world war, he was

librarian at Camp Upton,

“In 1927 he was made Director
| of the Division of Library Exten-}
sion, and ten years later added |
Adult, Education to his responsti-
bilities. As Director of Library
Extension, he became godfather

to all the public and school tibra-
J.|rles of the State of New York,
and to all the Ibrarlans as well.)

He left the large library systems
im the cities to carry on largely

with their own initiative, and
concentrated on helping the small- |
er struggling Institutions in the
lesser cities and villages. No de-

| tail of organizing or chartering
the smallest library corporation,
or of getting it going, was too
|small for him, and the flood of
correspondence which constantly
threatens to engulf his division,
| is ample testimony of the respect
and esteem in which he Is also
[widely held.

Dr. Tolman as a Leader

“Unlike many librarians, he was
no isolationist. and he fought to
make Ubrarians’ people like every-
body else. He became a leader of
all New York State employees
and wocked valiantly to have all
Ubrarians included in the bene-
fits of civil service. The develop-
ment of fixed and mandatory
salary increments for all New
York State emplovees was largely
due to his efforts. In 1945, he}
was elected President of the As-
sociation of State Civil Service |
Employees of the State of New
York, and he is being re-elected |
for the year 1946-1947. Librarians

and they
may be equally proud of his rec-
ord as a leader of public servants.
| “In recognition of this devoted
service and his great accomplish- |
ments and as an expression of
well-wishing for the future, the
reception is held for him ‘oday.
On this occasion, the volume of
letters was presented to him,

tributor. He was joined by nu-
| merous other ‘high officials of the
State, including many legislators
and the members of the Board of
| Regents of the University of the}
State of New York. Some 300 of |
the 400 letters came from libra-
rians in New York State, and|
many were received from profes-
| sional library leaders all over the
country,”

ONE MAN AGAINST A MILLION...

One man has decided that a million New Yorkers shall not ride buses.

That man is John A. Ritchie, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the New York City

Omnibus Corporation.

Mr. Ritchie's attitude is: "The PUBLIC BE DAMNED

Mr. Ritchie wants a bus strike on the 19 lines of the New York City Omnibus Corporation,
which are used by a million passengers a day.*

The Transport Workers Union of America does not want a strike.

THE UNION WANTS TO ARBITRATE

In the interests of the people of our city, the Transport Workers Union has proposed to
the Company that we submit all our differences to an impartial arbitrator for decision.

employees to mass in front of

AFL Program

However, the American Federa-
tion of Labor locals in the muni-

for a 35 per cent increase and
have suggested withdrawal of the
Council bill, The AFL stated that
the Board of Estimate is the only
body with power to increase sal-
aries, and that the only power the
Council has is to memorialize the
Board of Estimate to consider a
hearing on the pay raise matter.
The APL program has received
the endorsement of the Central
‘Trades and Labor Council, City-
wide body for that union.

Six-point Program
In detail, the AFL demands in-
clude six points:

1, The cost-of-living bonus to
be made a permanent part of the
salary of all City employees,

2. An increase of 35 per cent in
the pay of all City employees,

3. A five-day, 40-hour week.

4. Time and one-half for over-
time.

5. Double time for Sundays and
holidays,

6. A request to majority leader
of the City Council Sharkey that
the present bonus increase bill be
withdrawn from consideration by
the Council,

of Greater New York, called upon
all civil service employees to sup-
port the campaign launched by
the Central Trades and Labor
Council of Greater New York
(APL) to win a 35 per cent salary
boost for city. workers.

James C. Quinn, Secretary of
Central Trades, announced last
week that he and Martin T.
ey, President of the Labor
Council, would request Mayor
O'Dwyer to call a special meeting
of the Board of Estimate to con-
sider the proposal.

In addition to the pay raise, the
Council seeks to have the cost-of-
living bonus made permanent for
all municipal employees. The pro-
gram was submitted in a report
by the civil service committee of
the Council, headed by Jeremiah
P. Sullivan, and approved at a
general meeting.

Economic Plight Stressed

President Crane declared that
the economic plight of city Fire-
men in the face of mounting living
costs was the same as that of all
other city workers.

“The city firefighter has re-
ceived an increase in basic salary
of only § per cent since 1939,” he|
declared. “What this actually
means is that the Fireman's take-
home pay,
salary and bonuses, has been in-
creased by $3 in each semi-
monthly paycheck.

that the support of all civil serv-
jee groups is necessary if the pro-
gram laid down by Central Trades
is to succeed.

CIO Program

The CIO organizations among
City employees, part of the United
Public Workers of America, have
demanded a 20 cents an hour in-
crease for city employees, esti-
mated as an Increase of $600 a
year, In addition, the CIO groups
have stated their demands for
time-and-a-half overtime pay for
work over forty hours,

The Transport Workers Union,
a CIO affiliate, after long negotia-
tions with the Board of Trans-
portation, has succeeded in hay-
ing the Board pass a resolution
asking the 20 cent an hour in-
crease, which has been sent to
the Board of Estimate for action.

The campaign of the CIO

groups for a salary increase has
{been particularly active, Their
members have distributed leaflets
to the public showing the low-
| paid status of municipal workers.
Others have staged such “stunts”
as lunching in the public barks in
| protest against rising prices and
low salaries,

While the request of the Board
of Transportation covered only
the operating staff of the transit
system, a group of 1,200 admini-
strative and clerical employees
drew up a petition which they
submitted to Mayor O'Dwyer, the
Board of Transportation, the
Board of Estimate, and other
official bodies, asking that the
2,200 non-operating transit em-
ployees be included in the 20-

ty QUENCH

Under the Helmet

A DRIVE to expand the Suf-
folk County membership in the
Southern New York State Vol-
unteer Firemen’s Association ts
‘under way. Its aim is all 78 Vol-
unteer Departments, only 20 of
which were members up to this
year. . .. Posters relating to the
68th annual United Hospital Cam-
paign are now being posted on
bulletin boards outside the fire
houses,

Company Building Inspectors
fre again being ordered, in addi-
tion to their regular duties, to
search tenement house cellars for
accumulations of refuse, old lum~-
ber, boxes, ete, which in their
opinion are being stored for elec-
tion night bonfires, . . , Company
Commanders have been ordered
to begin an intensive inspection
of every hydrant for defects in
accordance with Chapter 26 0.4.G.

Fire Commissioner Quayle and
the Acting Chief of Department
Prank Murphy expressed their
sineere appreciation to the mem-
bers of the Uniformed Force for
their splendid response to the call
for volunteers to participate in
the Columbus Day Parade. The
contingent eertainly was a credit
to the Fire Department

Frm, Jim Welsh did a fine sing-|

ing job at the luncheon given at
the Oakwood Casino following th
Parade. He should be compliment-
ed especially‘on the hymn he sang
as tribute to Mayor O'Dwyer’s
wife... . The Fire Lieutenants’
Association adopted a resolution
expressing an affirmative stand in
the matter of holding an exami-
nation for Chief of Department,

uline making of this

as originally scheduled. This
makes the second organization to
take such a stand . . . Deputy
Chief in Charge Harold J. Burke
defeated the State Insurance De-
partment in its lawsuit to recover
$30 which it wns claimed he owed
in dues to the liquidated Chiefs’
Association,

Construction of a new $16,000
fire house at Garden City Park
will soon be started.

Mayor O'Dwyer was very moved
by the way the members of Engine
Companies 20 and 31 on Lafayette
St. and Engine Company 152 on
Hylan Blvd. S. L, stood at at-
tention in front of their respec-
tive quarters in tribute to the
memory of his wife, the late Mrs.
Catherine O'Dwyer, as the funeral
cortege passed along to St. Mary’:
Cemetery in Grasmere. At the
services in St, Patrick's Cathedral
the rendition by
| voices of the Fire and Police Glee
Clubs was awe-inspiring. Fire-
|man Michael Flannery of Engine
| 65 had his right eye burned at
| that paint shop fire atop the Hotel

Astor.

That Httle talk by Judge Thomp-|

son at the last St. George mect-
ing was evidently effective, as wit-
ness the very good turnout to the
annual memorial services at St
Ann’s Church last Sunday evye-
ning. Congratulations to Frm,
| Bob McDermott (St. George His-
torian) on the arrival of a baby
| daughter. Maybe now he can get
back to earth and continue his
good work in that organization as
writing for WNYF.

Pire Patrol No, 2 was in col-
Mision with a sedan at Wooster
|and Third Streets while return-
| Ing from box 261. Set. Fred Noeth
and Ptl, Joseph George were in-
jured... . The disbanding of all
second sections (except H & L 22)
seems pretty certain for November
1 or thereabouts. It is
reported that there is enough man
power to put the entire borough
of Manhattan on the three-pla-

up by the demands for a 40-hour
week.
The Fire Bell Club can now

ing to announcement made at

ization since its inception seven
