OSTERTAG SEES AID
IN PAY, 40-HR. WEEK
FOR STATE WORKERS

By MAXWELL LEHMAN
ATTICA, Sept. 25—State Assemblyman Harold Gstertag predicts
that employees may look forward to some type of equitable salary
adjustment; that the 40-hour work-week will in due time be insti-
tuted for all who do not now enjoy it; that the 25-year retirement
proposal will become the subject of a study by the State Comptroller.

He expresses strong interest in) ~~ —
the principle of a longevity plan,
under which employees would re-
ceive salary increases at regular

periods during their working ca~-

each for a study of the cost of a
25-year retirement plan, He felt
that “some employees may mis-
construe the purpose of this as-

Pact Signed
To Bar Bias
In U.S. Jobs

Representatives of the United
Federal Workers of America (CIO)
met today with Edward H. Law-
son, Regional Director of the Pres-
ident’s Committee on Fair Em-
ployment Practice, and signed an

a sea ig
agreement covers employees of the
Federal government in New York
and New Jersey.

The agreement provides for
Joint consultation of the union
and the FEPC on all cases of al-
leged discrimination in the Fed-
eral service, Such consultation
will take place whether the com-
plainant carries his case first to
the union or to the FEPC.

Transfer Rules
Speed Rehiring

No U.S. transfers may now be
made except where the employee
has received a notice of reduction
in force or a statement from his
personnel officer that he is avail-
able for hiring. Tie Civil Service
Commisison is no longer required
to approve inter-departmental
“transfers. To speed up the proc-
ess of rehiring employees who
have been “reduced,” transfers are
handled directly by the personnel
officers involved. A Federal em-
Ployee who has lost or faces loss
of his positions will be given, on
request, a list of agencies in the
vicinity where there are openings
which he is qualified to fill. On
application, he may be taken on
by the other agency without the
necessity of Commission approval.
This Commission officials say, is
an improvement over the former
method,

sent to the House.

During an emergency recon-
version period of two years, the,
benefits will be applicable for up
to 26 weeks, However, the §25
allowable maximum lost out
through a compromise. As the
bill stands, the rates prevailing in
the respective States apply. These
range from $15 to $28 weekly.
‘The State in which the employee
worked, not the State of his legal
residence, would be controlling.

Included in the unemployment
compensation system, as provided
in the amended bill, are about
3,000,000 regular civilian employ-
ees of the Federal Government,
including war-service employees,
and in addition about 400,000
maritime workers, The estimated
cost to the Government is $270,-
000,000 a year for a high level of
unemployment,

‘Travel Pay Voted

The Federal workers also would
be benefited by a travel pay al-
Jowances.

Both the unem it com~
pensation and the travel pay
grants are applicable to jobs in
private industry, and the inclu-
sion of workers was the
result of a hard fight
ployee organizations. Where States
pay unemployment compensation,
the Federal aid starts where the
period of payments by the State
leaves off, to complete the 26
weeks, a period which is greater
than that covered by most States.

Travel allowances will have a
$200 ceiling for those workers who
migrated after December 7, 1941,
to fill essential war jobs. This is
estimated to cost $60,000,000 more.

DPUL Return Would Result

Return to the States within
ninety days of the employment
service machinery and personnel
which the Government borrowed
from them to operate the United
States Employment Service on a
country-wide basis is provided in
the bill. President Truman had
asked that this set-up remain un-
der Federal control at least until
June 30, 1947.

In New York State this transfer
back would affect the Division oof
Placement and Unemployment
Insurance of the State Depart-
ment of Labor. \

pueronses $6 alae 38.000 SS ccaplarees Ces to Be Boers

Labor Class

Increments
Defeated

Pend Board of Estimate by 7 to
votes, where 9 were needed for
Saoption, defeated the bill passed
the Council to include part of

the Labor Class in the increment

Groups.

In his analysis of the proposed
taw to grant increments to labor
class employees, Budget Director
Thomas J. Patterson estimated
he cost, during the next four
years, at almost $4,500,000. The
Proposal provided four annual in-
crements of $120 for laborers, to
@ maximum of $2,280. He estimat-
ed that 8,930 employees would
have come under the grant,

He added that the bill would
increase the rates of unskilled la-
borers above those of skilled Ia-
borers, who receive prevailing
rates. As another argument
against the bill, he said that the
work of laborers was generally
routine and unchanging and that
it could not be compared with}
clerical employees in the incre-|
ment group, whose responsibili-
ties increase as their salaries in-|
crease.

In the hospitals Department, he

explained, the bill would grant
increments to about 2.000 hos-
pital helpers in the competitive

class, but would exclude thou-
sands doing the same work, who

are in the non-competitive class,

In concluding, he suggested that |
laborers should be given some con-
sideration at the next Budget pe-
riod (for 1946-47)

cuss the problems of employees

That danger came to light a
few days ago, caused endless com-
motion in the department and
prompted an association to call a
special meefing, but was extin-
guished by Pire Commissioner
Walsh himself. He gave his as-
surance today as follows

| The department has a snortage
of Firemen, but not of officers,

“They raised their right hand
and swore that they would be
willing to do fire duty,” Commis-
sioner Walsh related, “as they
were appointed (as Lieutenants)
with the knowledge that, though
the vacancies existed, there was
no room for them as Lieutenants
under the Two-Platoon System,
and they would have to be pa
tient until such ‘time as recrul
ment conditions in the depart-
ment improved.

Of the 216 Lieutenants, 198 are
at work, The others have retired
or are in the armed forces.

‘The Commissioner said that he
called the Lieutenants to his of-
fice on Thursday and had it out
with them.

Enough Lieutenants

“Not one of them said a word
about it,” reported Commissioner
Walsh in reference to a supposed
attempt to have them assigned
to duties as Lieutenants. “Not
one of them kicked against doing
fire duty, I did tell them if they
were not doing fire duty I would
rescind the order (promoting
them to Lieutenants), We have
enough Lieutenants without them.
But there was no argument, be-
cause they were all agreed that I
Just can’t assign them to officer
duties at this time.”

He denied that some of them
were doing Lieutenant duties, but
mentioned one temporary excep-
tion,

‘The Commissioner was some-
what disturbed by a newspaper
account of the Fire Department
making fish of one and fowl of
another and including an anec-
dote about Lieutenants acting as

Fire Wives Want

3-Platoon Restored

A message to Mayor LaGuardia
featured the first anniversary
meeting of the NYC Fire Wives
Association. The organization,
headed by Mrs. Florence Graetz,
asked the Mayor “for “a sane sy4-
tem of working hours" for Pire-
men as represented by a return to
the 3-platoon, 8-hour day, pay-
ment of overtime and retention of
the bonus of $420 as a permanent
increase.

Among the speakers was John”
| P. Crane,

president of the Unt-
formed Firemen's Association, who
explained the need for educating
the mayoral candidates to a bet-
ter understanding of the problems
of the municipal firemen. Mem-
bers of the UFA Executive Board
were guests at the meeting.

The Wives’ group is working on

The report said:

“Nominating petitions for the
second annual election to the Ex-
ecutive Board are being sent to

Board is completely changed every
three years by having a turnover
of one Chief, one Captain and
one Lieutenant annually.
democratic system was devised in
order to prevent any clique from
gaining control and also to insure
Permanent interest in the UPO.
The Association has made it pos-
sible for every member to share
in the nominations and elections
without the necessity of being
present at a meeting

The Lieutenant's Case

“The UPO has always contend-
ed that every Lieutenant in the
Department, no matter when he
was appointmed, is an officer in
every sense of the word. Although
every officer should be given the
opportunity to hold his rightful
rank, the UFO as an association
believes that since the department
is so short of Firemen that these
Lieutenants should temporarily
serve where they can do the Fire
Departnient and the City of New
York the most good. The UFO con-
Siders these Lieutenants as mem-
bers In good standing and as such
will render them the same services
ped protection as any other of-

cer.

Reduction of Working Hours

“The Association communicated
with Mayor LaGuardia, had con-
ferences in and presented plans

UFO Members Balloting

Fire Hours

In a report to the members issued today, the Uniformed Fire
that a ballot of the membership is being taken on uniform hours,
Officers Association, headed by Captain Winford L. Beebe announced
which would involve 8 hours a week extra for officers on the 3-

election of the organization, The

status of the Lieutenants working as Fireman also was discussed. No
objection was raised to this expediency under present circumstances.

then started an intensive publici-
y campaign for shorter hours for
all officers. The UFO finally suc-
ceeded in part, since Commission-
er Walsh agreed to place four di-
visions on the 3 Platoon (Added
“aty) System. It was gratifying,
but since only a portion of the
officer personnel were relieved of
the long hours. the UFO as an
association felt that the job is still
incomplete.

“At the meeting of September
13 the members present gave the
Executive Board a unanimous vote
of confidence and the order to
continue striving for better hours
for all officers. The officers in the
8 hour units (3-platoon) are be-
ing balloted by the UFO to ascer~
tain whether or not they would
be willing to temporarily work an
oxtra 8 hours weekly in order to
give the 215 company units on
the 84 hour week (2-platoon) some
velief from those arduous hours.
Up te the present the 8-hour of-
ficers are coming through with
flying colors and backing up their
Association and brother officers by
a 4 to 1 vote in favor of sharing
their lelsure time.

Long Distance Delegate

“In addition to the Battalion
Delegutes In New York City, the
UFO is not neglecting the Armed
Services. Fire Lieutenant "Jim"
Allen, now a Lieutenant in Uncle
Sam's Navy, is our Battalion Del-
ewate for the Phillipines. The UFO
has received applications (rom and
has correspondence with Pire De~
partment Officers from all corners

to the Commissioner's Ofice and

of the globe.”

A PLAN TO FILL SERVICE NEEDS
AND DO JUSTICE TO VETERANS

A PROBLEM perplexing the State Civil Service Com-
mission and the Municipal Civil Service Commissions
is the holding of examinations, particularly large ones,
so that the needs of the service ‘will be filled and at the
same time justice will be done to returning veterans, The
problem is complicated by the fact that the veterans are
discharged continuously.

The problem is growing, and a solution should be
provided before the commissions find themselves
swamped. Delay adds greatly to the difficulty.

A solution to which the commissions should give
serious attention is a limitation of the size of the eligible
list. Fix the number of eligibles at a number a little
greater than the number of appointments that the service
would require in a six-months period. Holding of the
examinations semi-annually. In that way the difficulty
raised by a large list resulting from a great number of
candidates, and the necessity of having the legal list in
existence for at least one year, since it would be depleted
sooner would be overcome. At the same time the veterans

would feel that they were being given a fair opportunity
Every six months there would be a test in one of the titles,
and there would be examinations in numerous titles,

The method is to establish as the pass mark the per-
centage attained by the candidate who would be last on
the eligible list. If the NYC Police Department wanted
to appoint 400 men in six months, the pass mark could be
made that of the 500th candidate in the relative order
of standing. The extra 100 would allow for declina-
tions, ete,

Smaller Fee Advisable

As a precaution, in examinations for technical or
professional positions, in view of the 75 per cent rule, the
pass mark could be made that of the fiftieth candidate,
for instance if 50 eligibles were desired, or 75 per cent,
whichever is higher.

There could be an objection to the proposed solution
if the same application fees were charged as now. Since
the number of those who would not make the eligible
list would be large, the effect should be offset by a reduc-
tion in the fee. The number of opportunities for compet-
ing, even for jobs in the same title, would be an additional
offset to small eligible lists.

By all means the commissions should consider the
plan now, and under no circumstances should let time
keep slipping by without any show of affirmative attempts
at a solution imperative both in the interest of the
public at large and thé veterans in particular,

Construction of Retention Clause |

Of Preference Amendment )

IF THE COURTS were called upon merely to interpret the Btenes
sage of the proj veteran preference amendment to the Stal
og ealing with the retention of veterans holding 4
with the State and its political subdivisions, they could not escape
holding that disabled veterans must be separated from the service
before non-disabled veterans, The reason is that the literal language

is that plain,

After reciti e preference to veterans in appointment and
tion, whaneey ¢ disabled veterans would go to the top of any
on which their names appear, and non-disabled veterans would
shod the pet amendment states in regard to any veterans

appolnt

“Upon the abolition or elimination of positions in the civil
service, to which the foregoing preferences are applicable, any such
member of the armed forces shall be entitled to preference in the
retention of any position held by him or her, in inverse order of
the ce as provided in this section.”

The phrase “inverse order” is so plain as to leave pon
interpret, even though the Legislature intended the order of faye
off should be inverse, not the order of retention, The Legislature
never meant to slight disabled veterans, But the courts normally do
not correct mere mistakes of the Legislature.

‘The problem {s not one of merely interpreting a passage lifted
bodily out of its context, and weighed as something wholly apart
from other considerations of law, custom and public policy and
sentiment. The passage about retention, therefore, must not be
limited merely to interpretation, which ts an exploration of ite
written text, but should be subjected to construction, which can~
vasses the whole statute and may even call in the aid of extrinsic
considerations.

Construction necessarily presupposed doubt, obscurity or amble
guity, otherwise there is nothing to construe.

CRUX OF PROBLEM—IS THERE A DOUBT?

The crux of the problem therefore is the existence of a doubt
as to the meaning of the passage concerning retention,

Never has the Federal Government, nor any State government,
nor any political subdivision of a State government enacted any
law that gave non-disabled veterans a preference over disabled
veterans, The New York State Constitution, Article V, Section 6,
as it now exists, gives preference only to disabled veterans, no
preference whatever io non-disabled veterans, The Federal Govern=
ment gives first preference to the disabled veterans, second prefer=
ence to the non-disabled, and the proposed State constitutional
amendment adds secondary preference, and for the first time, to
non-disabled veterans in appointments and promotions. Thus the
principle of preference to disabled veterans ts not only recognized
but specifically continued in the first part of the amendment, dealing
with appointments and promotions.

It is public policy and sentiment, therefore, to give disabled
veterans first, though nof necessarily only, preference,

While it is true that public policy can not differ from the clear
terms of a valid statute, it is proper to consult public policy as
an aid in the construction of a statute,

A doubt is raised at once that the Legislature intended to over-
ride prior public policy and sentiment, and legislate disfavor of
disabled veterans, in the retention section,

It is a rule of statutory construction in this State that the court
must take the entire statute Into consideration. When this is done
in the present case, it is found that the appointment-promotion
preference follows the public policy of giving disabled veterans @
better break than anybody else, which shows how the Legislature
was minded about disabled veterans generally. This is a clue to
what it intended also in reference to veteran retention and shows
up by construction the mistake that does not appear by mere inter=
pretation.

Factual evidence corroborating the mistake is obtainable from
the requests made by veteran organizations to the Legislature to
amend the preference provision in the State Constitution, in the
debates in both Houses of the Legislature, and in the records of
the committee meetings and the Legislative sessions. Nobody ever
brouched the faintest intimation that disabled veterans were to
receive any other than primary preference, not only in appointment
and promotion but also in retention.

When the statute fs read as a whole, as it must be, and when
the proceedings and debates that produced it, the petitioners who
induced it and the established public policy and sentiment are con-
sidered, along with general purpose and goBd conscience, it is found
that the passage concerning laying off disabled veterans ahead of
non-disabled veterans raises a serious doubt, even though the words
used—"‘inverse order”—are not of themselves ambiguous. The neces
sity for construction therefore arises.$ It is a fundamental rule
that the courts are obliged to give effect to the intention of the
Legislature* There are no rules that bar the courts from the dis-
covery of the true intention of a law.6 Even the literal wording
must aia way to the object of advancing the remedy,

‘The bill is remedial. It is a rule that remedial statutes should
be liberally construed. es the opportunity to abide by
the spirit rather than the letter in construing the retention provision,

INADVERTENCE AS A MATTER OF LAW

A court, in construing a law, is sometimes guided more by ite
purpose than by its phraseology. construction favorable to
apparent object is to be preferred. A mistake in the inectioa of
the wrong words therefore must be kept subservient to the general
intent. The literal language, however strong, must yield.

The remedy depends largely on the obviousness of the mistake,
Where the wordirg of a statute is clearly an inadvertence, the courts
will remedy the defect." The inadvertence that was committed ag
& matter of fact therefore becomes obvious also as a matter of la
by construction based on all the surrounding circumstances,
under such conditions the courts correct it,

Such is my legal opinion. HoWever, as outlined In this column
last week, a case can be made out in favor of strict construction—
the court will not change the clear language of a statute, but any
change in the wording must be made by the Legislature, plain
meaning of a statute prevails; Cie, court Tas no. Dower to. een
errors, etc, Case law citations were given. In th
such cases would guide the courts. But if a ‘doubt is peice
raised, construction becomes necessar

that the amendment as a whole is to
the State at the general election on November 6 next. The question
I have discussed is purely a legal one and independent of any
arguments for or against the amendment as a whole,

‘The retention clause must be considered, In any case, as unfor:
tunate, because its meaning can be construed as doubtful, and the
voters will ratify or reject an amendment, one passage of which is
the subject of controversy as to its meaning, To make matters
worse, there is no method by which the doubt can be officially re
solved before election. The courts will not render advisory opinions,

Prison Chapter of the Association
of State Civil Service Employees,
today outlined what he considers
the primary problems now facing
State employees for solution, Mr.
Law plans to present his recom-
mendations on these matters be-

Lawrence Law
Outlines Problems
To Be Solved

Special to The LEADER fore the annual meeting of the
BUFFALO, Sept. 25—Lawrence/ State Association on October 16.
R. Law, president of the Attica! The problems:

1. The progress of the survey of
the Uniformed Personnel of the
Correction Department for 26-year
Retirement.

2, Dropping of age limit for re~
tirement of all State employees
to 55 years,

3. Getting favorable Legislative
action in making the cost-of-liv-

raise,

ing bonus a permanent base pay

4. Securing Legislation to re-
ward State employes for each five! o¢
years of service, who have not
had a promotional pay raise, with
& $100.00 base pay increase.

5. Extension of the 40 hour
week to all State employees.

In addition, Mr. Law seeks cla~
riflcation of the functions of the
new State Personnel Council and
the Salary Standardization
Board. He asks a more precise de-
lineation in the regulations s0
that employees will receive pay
for days worked in lieu of time

off, “without any if or buts.”

any further efforts to establish grievance machinery in the Pire
Department. He revealed today that although he had made ten-
tative beginnings in that direction with some hope, experience had

blasted the experiment out of existence.

Against More Mandatory Laws

The City now annually pays
incremerits of approximately $3
500,000. While it is true that
some of this Is offset by departs
mental savings, we are going to
reach the point where the greater
part of the cost of the increments
will be an additional burden on
the taxpayer. Statements have
been made that the major cost of
the proposed increments will be
offset by the filling of vacancies
at lower rates, However, these |

savings are now considered in cons
nection with the cost of the pres=
ent increments, There is not gos
ing to be any additional say: ‘

$150 or $300 here or there which
would be added on to the present

As stated in my report on the
increments for those in the Labor

tion should not be encouraged.

With the cessation of hostilities

preparation of the Budget for
1945-1946 there is the possibility
that before this fiscal year is
ended many millions of dollars
will have to be provided to pay
the salaries of returning veterans,
I cannot foresee in this present
budget any availability of funds
to take care of this additional
burden. The Charter provisions
governing temporary loans for
budgetary deficits most likely will
be invoked to take care of such
items as the returning veterans’
and other contingnecies, The
amount which may be obtained in
this manner is limited by law,

There is no reason why con~
sideration of some kind should
not be given to the employees in
this category. The arguments ad.
vanced that the salaries of certain’
employees have remained sta=

may warrant correction but nob

of the opinion that the matter
should be considered in connec=

City and its ability to nance such

“All affiliated national and in-

Official Rules for R

ction in Force

As Applied in the Federal Service

The official reduction-in-force regulations of the U. 8. Civil

Service Commission are published herewith. Last week definitions
of competitive area, competitive level, service groupings and Govern

Ment entities were defined. These
ticularly, and relate to

reduction-in-force

have @ bearing on transfers par-
considerations because

employees who receive notice of layoff, for other than efficiency
reasons, often try to get transferred to some other Federal depart-

ment or agency.

The following is the order of
retention. Hence the first group
Tepresents the last to go, But sub-
groups are established, also, and)
veteran preference applies as well. |
Place in Group A:

All employees who were in Fed-
eral service on December 1, 1939,
who have served since then with-
out a break in service of 30 days
or more, and who are not now}
serving under temporary appoint-
ment limited to one year or less,

Employees who received proba-
tional or probational-indefinite
‘appointment and who are still
serving under such appointment.
(NOTE: The majority of such ap-

intments were made prior to

-16-42, although a few were

made after that date from cer-
tificates of eligibles issued prior}
to 3-16-42. Probational appoint- |
ments to the Post Office Service
were made up to 10-23-43, al-|
though a few were made after |
that date from certificates of
¢ligibles issued prior to 10-23-43,

ments contained mo time limita-|
tion such as “for duration of|

ments in such agencies as the
Tennessee Valley Authority and
Federal Bureau of Investigation |
are of this nature.)

Employees serving in positions
brought under Civil Service by
the Ramspeck Act and who were
recommended for and received a
classified status thereunder, and
who have served since then with-
out @ break in service of 30 days
or_more.
