Bransford Plied
With Questions
On Board Policy

BUFFALO, July 5.—The annual
meeting of the Western Confer
ence of The Civil Service Employ-
ees Association was enlivened by
a discussion’ of necessary improve-
ments in the administration of
civil service, induced from the

floor during a question period fol-
|Jowing a talk by William L. Brans-
jford, Director of Examinavions,
State Civil Service Department.
‘The questioners struck deep at
the roots of civil service by cha
lenging the propriety of holding
entrance examinations first and
letting promotion examinations
slide, so that key positions were
filled by provisionals, who passed
on the qualifications of competi-
tive empioyees without ever hav-
ing submitted to competitive ex-

ter-minded to civil servic
The backbone of the civil service
was described as the employees
with ten or more years of experi-
jence in State service, and their
| experience was so valuable, mem-

| Commission should pay close heed
to their recommendations, and
less attention to the theoretical
ideas of persons new to the serv-
\ice, of whatever high station, and
even if competitively appointed,
| Mr. Bransford, whose experience
in dealing with people is broad,
and whose suavity is already wide-
ly appreciated, although he’s been
in State ice only ten months,

much not of his own making,
his questioners realized, so treaved
him with extreme courtesy and
even affability.
Probationary Promotion Opposed
The Conference opposed any
probationary period in promotion
examinations, The plan to include
such provision has been aban-
doned by the Commission, but the
possibility of probationary periods
for trans-promotions still exists,
and the Conference wanted not
even that vestige to remain,

LEADER Resolution

‘A resolutton was unanimously
adopted, expressing appreciation
of services rendered by The
LEADER and favoring continua-
tion of the friendly, cooperative
and effective relations that have
marked the past. It was couched
in terms similar to those contained
\in a resolution adopted, also unani-
|mously, by the Central Confer-
ence.

Officers Eleged

The Western Conference _re-
elected Robert R. Hopkins, Buf-
falo, of the DPUI, Department of
Labor, as Chairman, and Mrs.
Alice Wagner, past President of
the Albion chapter, as Treasurer
and Raymond L. Monro, President
of the Rochester chapter, was
elected Vice-chairman; Rosemary
Fornes, of Buffalo, Secretary.

Isaac Hungerford, Assistant to
State Comptroller Frank C, Moore,
explained employee benefits under
the State Retirement System.

Group Hears McDonough

William F. McDonough, Execu-
tive Representative of the Asso-
ciation, reminded his hearers of
the pledged objectives of the As-
sociation and praised the fine en-
thusiasm displayed by Mr. Hop-
kins and representatives of the
chapters that comprise the West-
ern Conference.

“The Association's great bill of
rights calls for the upholding and
extending of the merit system, the
maintenance and promotion of ef-
ficiency in public service “and the

Western Conference Seeks
Reforms In Civil Service

“The Association has lived up

the merit/to the responsibility expressed and
system, That he had to answer so|

implied in these three pledges. The
45,000 members are inspired by the
same ambition that moved previ-
ous members to see to it that New
York State civil service shall go
forward to ever greater efficiency.

Perfection Unattained

“It would ‘be ridiculous to say
that personnel administration in
the State or in the various muni-
cipalities has reached perfection.
For many years prior to the Feld-
Hamilton law and the legislative
studies prior to that law, State
employees were called upon again
and again to subsidize the State
services by working at substand-
ard salaries. It was a modified
form of exploitation. It was double
taxation. It was not the bald
exploitation practiced often by in-
dustry, but arose largely because
of lack of a sound classification
and salary standardization system
and because employees themselves
through lack of organization were
unable to present their case to the
officials of State government and
to the people. To your Association
efforts, and the generous support
those efforts received from for-
ward-looking statesmen and from
the people generally, the much im-
proved status of employees today
is due,

“We have the problem today to
seek a real wage—one that keeps
pace with price changes. We have
the problem of liberalization of the
benefits into line with present day
Retirement System to bring the
living needs of disabled or aged
workers. We have the problem of
extending the competitive classifi-
cation to very many groups which
today because they are outside of
the competitive class lack the in-
centive of a career system and
safeguards of tenure. We have the
problem of like pay for women
and proper recognition of careers
for women in public service. We
have civil workers in the armies,
colleges, authorities,

What Worries Her

“Generally, you know that we
have problems in the Civil Ser-
vice Commission, as elsewhere. I
am worried about ‘charges.’ When
I hear that charges are preferred
against anyone, I am sick, sick.
I don’t think we should come to
the point where we feel we must
prefer charges. There should be
decent, human, tolerant spiritual
understanding among employees
so that we will never have to pre-
fer charges one against the other.

“I am worried, too, over ser-
vice record ratings. The law of
the State of New York states you
are entitled to increments. Your
supervisor feels you are, or are
not entitled to an increment. I
feel that people who prepare civil
service ratings should be trained—
trained to do just that — and they
should be people who are large
enough in human relations and
perspective to do. that rating ob-
jectively on the basis of produc-

= |ployee in Albany has had a song

|published by the American Acad-

Jimmy D. Williams, clerk in the
City Department of Public Works,

|I Had in You is Gone,” in 1932,
!smce then he has watched his
jsong climb in popularity until
|now it is featured in sheet-music
\form by a NYC firm,

Mr. Williams, @ musiclan on
wekends in an Albany nightspot,
said his song was first published
in 1944, but it wasn’t until recent-
ly that an effort was made to
push his number,

Maybe Records

He hopes to see his number re-
corded soon if the current record-
ing ban by the American Fede-
ration of Musicians is lifted, If
not, Mr, Williams indicated it
might be ‘put on wax” in Eng-
Jand,

His song has been played by
Cab Calloway and sung by Helen
Humes, widely known singer who
was featured for a number of
years with Count Basie’s band,
Listed on the sheet music as cq-
author is Bennie Payne, formerly
associated with Cab Calloway.

Among other numbers he has

Miss Krone Asks Uniformity

Mary Goode Krone, Chairman
of the Personnel Council, noted
that the occasion was her first op-
portunity to meet with the Met-
ropolitan Conference.

“The Council,” she said, “was
set up for you and the 50,000
other State employees, and it is
our purpose to create better under-
standing and to lessen the number
of personnel problems between
management in the State govern-
ment and the employees them-
selves,

“In order to improve State ser-
vice, we must have uniform in-
terpretation of State laws. If we
can minimize those conditions that,
cause unhappiness, we will do so
and if you have any suggestions
for improving the service, send
them on to us. We will be happy
to consider them.”

Boettjer Is Impressed

Mr. Boettjer expressed great
pleasure on behalf of Commis-
sioner Moses to welcome you the
Conference and guests to Jones
Beach,

“The Commissioner has directed

Park,” he explained. “Specifically,
that means you can use all of our
facilities and we won't charge you
for the use of those facilities. We
hope you will make use of them
before you leave today,

“On behalf of the Commission,
I commend the Conference on the
type of men it has been fortunate
enough to be associated with, who
are in charge of our local Chap-
George Siems, pres
Py and Mr, Lemily,
past President, They have been
most cooperative and always hays
used their good judgment in all
problems brought before us. We
hope that their efforts are dupli-
cated throughout the State and
we commend them for the good
sense and the vision they have
used in all of their work.”

KEEPING FIT
Thoughts for the Nation’s Birthday -- 1948

OU and [ and nearly all our neighbors recognize the

need for keeping our bodies fit by exercise for the
demands life puts upon us, We recognize that this prob-
lem of keeping physically fit is largely the result of great
industrial changes which require for the most of us the
substitution of office and indoor work for the more health-
ful outdoor activities. Do we recognize that these same
economic and social changes have rendered obsolete and
useless much of the schooling we received as children
and young people and that the mental world we live in
often fails to correspond with the facts of the contempor-
ary world of science, engineering, industry and interna-
tional relations?

America, since the war, has been forced into a new posi-
tion in a new world. Many deplore the new duties and
obligations implied in this changed world in which we
live. Many do not recognize these changes even when
the evidence of change is all around us.

The problems of America are our own personal prob-
lems, We will not long prosper while the country floun-
ders. America can build no competent plan to meet her
difficulties until her sovereign citizens well informed

are

in finance, economics and international relations.
My claim is that these things demand from each of us
that we give our best thought to the solving of the difficul-

ties nearest to us. My guess is that whatever problem
you choose you will find that the search for cause and
remedies will lead far into current problems of govern-
ment, trade, economics and finance.

There is a profound difference between schooling and
education. Schooling may force information upon us. By
education we achieve self-improvement through personal
effort. Schooling is of little value unless it is followed by
real personal effort to understand the real world and to aid
in making it somewhat better and more reasonable,
Education is a lifelong job.

It is expected, therefore, that the American people will
persist in their traditional attitude toward life and work
but will add something new to that tradition, that they will
seek in increasing number to undertand their world and
to master its difficult problems through’ mental applica-
tion, worthwhile reading and study. They will seek to put
this knowledge to use in their business, in their vote, in
their industries, in their communities and in their world,
and they will be interested to consider the need of every
community for better knowledge and deeper understanding
and a means to a richer and more satisfactory life for both
individual and community.

STATE AND COUNTY NEWS

Methods of Civil Service Associatio
Were Effective in Early Years, To

This is the second part of @
series of stories about the history
of The Civil Service Employees
Association, This section describes
the period after the organization
—then the Association of State
Civil Service Employees—began to
be recognized as a Serious force in
the development of good rections
between management and em-
ployees.

On December 20, 1929, The As-
sociation of State Civil Service
Employees published a bulletin
which succinctly set down its basic
policy. That policy has been fol-
lowed since, and has proved suc-
cessful in building the organiza-
tion to its present strength. Wil-
liam F. McDonough, then presi-
dent, wrote to Governor Franklin

working conditions, promotion
and efficiency, and a better retire-
ment setup.

The essential policies which Mc-
Donough then outlined have been
followed since. The plea for a
regular study of compensation re-
sulted finally in enactment of the
most comprehensive salary plan in
the United States. Salaries have
risen far beyond anything en-
visioned in those early days. Fair
minimums have been written into
the law. While no committee
exists dealing with employee prob-
lems, various sectors of those
problems are handled by new
agencies of government; and re-
cent years have seen the estab-
lishment of the conference method
between employee representatives
and management. Retirement
provisions have improvements that
have been great—but there is still
much to be done.

Study of Problems
On March 6, 1930, Lieutenant-
overnor Herbert Lehman, speak-
ng before a dinner of the Associa-
tion, said:

“I am particularly glad that
steps have recently been taken,
both by the Executive and the
Legislature, to provide for a real
|and exhaustive study of the ques

ie

man means
yinced that
in rela-
tions to the individual workers in
State service must be of similar
| benefit to the State in developing
\loyal and efficient service. Cer-
tainly, the existing more or less

haphazard method of compensa-
tion and promotion in many cases
result in a sense of insecurity and
suspicion.

“A resolution has been intro-
duced into the Legislature provid-
ing for the appointment of a com-
mittee to make a wage and per-
| sonnel survey of the civil service
system of the Stave and to report
thereon to the legislature, with)
recommendations, on or before
February 15, 1931. The Governor
has sent a message to the Legisla-
ture pointing out that a thorough
survey of the whole field is neces-
sary and urging that before the|
next session of the legislature a|
scientific plan be formulated to
improve the present somewhat
chaotic conditions surrounding
the salaries, grades and duties of
| officers and employees in the civil
|service of the State. He suggests
and urges that the commission
which is to report to the Legisla-
ture by February 15th, 1931, be
directed to make a preliminary re-
port to the Governor on or before |
September 1, 1930, in order that the |
| adjustments recommended in the |
|report may be included in the|
budget for action by next year’s
Legislature. These two steps show

the interest and sympathy of the
| Legislative leaders and the Gov-
ernor in the problems affecting
il service employees of the |
State and in this interest and
sympathy I fully share. What the |
wage and personnel survey will
show no one, of course, can fore-
see. Undoubtedly it will point out
many inequalilies in compensa- |
tion and many inaccuracies in!

classification, grades, etc., which facts comparison, of co

will be susceptible of correction,

“It will unquestionably show
that many receive compensation
too low in comparison with civil
life and with similar positions in
governmenial units. It may also
show that certain salaries now paid
are high in comparison with those
in civil life or in other government-
al units. At any rate, it will give a
correct, fair and unbiased picture
on which the Governor and the
Legislature can form an intelli-
gent judgment as to compensa.
tion. I hope that in line with the
survey made recently by the Fed-
eral Government, this study,
among other things, will deter-
mine the following:

“(1) The relative value of the
various classes and grade of posi-
tions found in governmental es-
tablishments to which a uniform
compensation schedule may equi-
tably be applied.

“(2) The desirable and proper
ranges of pay for various grades
and classes and the number of
rates into which such ranges
should be divided.

“(3) The systems of advance-
ment from rate to rate which can
be administered with substantial
uniformity under like conditions
for like work throughout the serv-
ice.

“(4) A system for determining
fair and equitable comvensation
for types of positions, which, be-
cause of their character or sur-
rounding conditions, cannot be
properly covered by a uniform
compensation schedule.

“In order to establish

Total Disability

To collect disability benefits by
the terms of your Group Plan
policy, you must be totally d's-
abled. By that we mean the in-
jury or iliness shall wholly and
continuously disable and prevent
you from performing any and
every duty pertaining to your oc:
cupation. Such injury or illn

shall also require the personal at- |

tendance of a legally qualified
physician or surgeon at least once
in every seven days,

8. Indemnity for surgical treat-
ment for minor injuries.

If a policyholder has an acei-
but loses no time, the Com-
will pay the actual expense
of the necessary medical and sur-
gical attention up to an amount
equal to one fourth the monthly
indemnity. This is not true of
ness; accidents only are cov-
ered under this feature. This point
of paying for medical and surgic-
al attention caused by accidents
is a very liberal provision.

9. House Confinement.

House confinement is only re-

|
|

quired in case of sickness, not ac- |

cidents, during any vacation, leave
of absence, or any period when
you are not assigned to regular
duty. At all other times house con-
finement is not required. In many
individual policies covering sick-
ness you will find house confine-
ment required at all times in mak-
ing benefits payable.
Standard Provisions

10. Certain standard provisions
are required by the Insurance
Laws of the State of New York.
Attention should be paid to num-
ber 4, which requires notice of
disability within 20 days in case
of accidents and 10 days in case
of sickness. If the company is to
give good service, notification
should be prompt. You, as a
policyholder, may profit by a talk
with the Claim Adjuster from

y| your territory. Cooperation with

him will result in better service to
you and your fellow-workers. Ef-
ficient claim service, incidentally,
is the best protection a policy-
holder has.

Pensions of Great Interest

The Association received assur-
ances from the appropriating au-
thorities last March when the
policy of percentage allowances
for hazardous or arduous work was
being abandoned that the haz-
ardous character of work with
tuberculosis hospitals pould be rec-
ognized in other ways. The re-
ports covering tuberculosis hos-
pitals indicates that the present
formula does not give workers in
these hospitals the salary credit
the hazard merits. This matter
will be presented to the proper au-
thorities by the Association and a/
strong plea made that the situa-
tion be dealt with adequately.

“Every member of our present
retirement plan is vitally inter-
ested in the Associations program |
to liberalize the plan to bring it)
into line with the fundamental}
purpose of all retirement plans,|
namely, to provide the disabled or
aged worker income sufficient for a

Organized Workers Called Alert

“Organized public workers are
keenly alert to the fact that pub-
lic attention is being directed
more and more to civil govern-
ment—its usefulness and its econ-
omy. Those who believe in Amer-
ican free enterprise realize that
it is not quite enough in this day
to preserve order and protect the
lives of citizens, They understand
that progress and the attainment
of human happiness comes only
through social justice and that
this is most encouraged when
there is an enlightened partner-
ship between capital and labor
and government.

“Public employees are mindful
of the success of sound labor re-
lations in private employment.
They know that good employer-
employee relations in private in-
dustry have been a concern of the
State for years. They urged and
supported State action

Relations at Cornell University,

State Warns All

On False

/ Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, July 5—.There’s been
some difficulty with candidates for
State jobs who refuse to cooperate
when the Civil Service Commis-
sion is investigating them. Hence,
the Commission has ruled that
any person who passes the exam-
ination but fails to cooperate may
have his name stricken from the
eligible list. This means he will
not be certified for a job, no mat-
ter how fine his grade on the
test.
Scveral recent cases have con-
cerned individuals who have writ-
ten on their application forms
that they've been confined to men-
tal hygiene institutions. But when
the Commission has asked the
candidate for an OK to go ahead
and obtain the data from the in-
stitution, the answer has been
No. Said a spokesman for the
Commission: “In certain jobs we
have a duty to determine the na-
ture of the candidate’s previous
condition, the possibility of re-
currence of the malady, and re-
jieked facts. The person who has
been confined to an institution
won't be denied a job for that
reason — but we must have the
| facts.

Jit” A previous discharge from
Private employment does not pre-
clude employment by the State.
But, says the Commission spokes-
man, “we don't feel an obligation
to approve anybody blindly.”

In one recent case, a candidate
for a State job refused to permit
the Commission's investigators to
check his previous employment
record with the Veterans Admini-
,Stration. Without his consent, the
Commission could obtain no in-
formation from the VA. “We could
only conclude,” the investigator
decided, “that something must
have been wrong in the VA.”

Prison Record

One sensitive recent issue has
revolved around cases where job-
applicants have had prison rec-
ords. Several have charged that
the Civil Service Commission has
been unduly harsh on them, re-
fusing them employment “even
though we have paid our debt to
society and tried to lead a decent
life_ since.”

is Experiments
With Exam Methods

Two innovations introduced by the U.S. il Service
Commission show forward-looking policy aimed at
expediting and simplifying examination procedure.

Regional Directors are empowered, in their judsment,
ing all candidates to appear who so desire. The applica-
ing all candidates to appear who so desire. The applica-
tions will be filled out in the examination room, Also,
duplicate testing is avoided by another innovation: if
candidates for Stenographer-typist or Clerk-typist, passed
one part of the test since 1946, they need not pass that
part in current exams in the title. This has been adopted
in the Second Region, New York and New Jersey, in the
Stenographer-typist test that closes tomorrow (Wednes-
day).

Such experiments have real value, although not gen-
erally applicable. Vor instance, large tests require careful
allocation of candidates to examination centers; also dif-
ferent parts of exams other than Stenographer-typist do
not have such closely related components. But where the
schemes upply, they serve an excellent purpos

New Rul

Duplicated Tests

WASHINGTON, July 5—.A new)

xamining technique for use in|
Stenographer tests enables any
competitor who has thade a pas-
sing mark as Typist in any exam
given since February 1946, need
pass only the dictation and trans-
scribing test henceforth, to ac-
quire full eligibility as a Steno-

ms held in the past, per-
sons who failed the stenographic
part, but did receive eligible
ratings as Typists, were required
to take again all three phases of
the exam — general, typing and
stenography — in order to obtain
eligibility as Stenographers. It
longer necessary, in such
to repeat the phases al-
ready passed.

Use Not Compulsory
Adoption of the new technique
in the field is left to the dis-
cretion of the regional directors,

It may not be followed in all re-
gions,

e Avoids

Under the new plan as it op-
erates in. the central office in
| Washington, application cards are
checked against competitors’ rec-
ords; if the records show passing
marks previously acquired for Ty~
pist, the applicants are told — at
the time admission cards are dis-~
tributed —. that they need take
only the stenography part of the
forthcoming examination.

So far as field exams are con-
cerned, the procedure may vary
among the regions with respect
to the method which is followed
in determining whether an ap-
Plicant has previously acquired an
eligible Typist-rating. One method
is to have those persons who are
to be admitted bring with them
to the examining point any no-
tices of rating which they may
have received as Typists.

‘The new plan is looked upon as
@ money-saver to the Cominission
and as a time-saver to the com=
petitors and to those who ad-
minister the examinations.

Of Farm Workers

Special to The LEADER
ROCHESTER, July 5 — New
York State’s farmers will require
an estimated additional 27,500 farm
workers by the middle of July, Nel-
son F, Hopper, Superintendent of
Farm Placement for the New York
State Employment Service, said.
“We estimate that the majority of
these seasonal workers can be e!
listed in our own farming area:
Mr. Hopper added.

Mr. Hopper emphasized that the
Employment Service's Farm Labor
Recruitment Program is in every
sense a community undertaking. He
said the program evolved out of
suggestions from individual farmers
and food processors, from planning
conferences with interested State
organizations, national agricultural
and food processing groups, and the
various State Employment Services.
Local drives to mobilize commun-
ity groups will be carried on with
the assistance of local farmers and
food processors in all important
agricultural areas of the State.
Business men, Chambers of Com-
merce, civic groups, schools, wo-
men’s organizations and others will
be asked to help as the crop season
advances and labor needs become
acute.

A simultaneous campaign to pro-
vide year-round hands is under
way.

“The Employment Service found
openings for a total of 1,316 year-
‘round farm workers in April and
May,” Mr, Hopper stated.

Course to Be Given
For Present Employees

ALBANY, July 5.—State em-
ployees who would like to gain a
foothold in the field of adminis-
trative analysis will have that op-
portunity, according to a decision
by the State Civil Service Com-
mission.

The Commission approved the
general proposal to hold a train-
ing institute in methods and pro-
cedures, which would be open to
permanent competitive employee
of the State who has been em-
ployed not less than two years in
a particular department or agency
and who is a high school grad-
uate,

In directing its public employee
training staff to proceed with
plans for the school, the commis-
sion indicated the first institute
might be held in Albany in the
Fall. A similar two-week course
is expected to be given in NYC,
under present plans.

Sees Attractive Opportunity

‘The course will cover fundamen-
tals and accepted standards in the
field of administrative analysis.
The Commission said the institute
“should be attractive to State em-
ployees who have an interest and
some natural aptitude for this
kind of work.”

The Commission added that all
State employees will be notified as
soon as applications for the school
will be accepted.

Applicants for the school will be
given a special screening exami-
nation to determine their aptitude

Gain Toward Uniformity
In Personnel Rules

ALBANY, July 5.—Considerable
progress in the establishment of
uniform personnel procedures
throughout State service is being
made by the State Personnel Coun-
cil, according to Miss Mary Goode
Krone, Chairman,

In its third annual report, the
council listed more than 100
grievances by State employees re-
lating to assignments and working
conditions which were handled
during 1947,

The Council was established in
June, 1945, by Governor Dewey to
develop uniform personnel policy
and practices among State de-
partments and institutions.

In releasing the report, Miss
Krone said the Council had de-
veloped its program of stimulating
co-operation among personnel of-
fices, worked with administrators
on personnel research and ex-
panded its services to State em-
ployees.

The Council listed among its
special activities last year:

1, Administrative assistance to
the State Department of Health
in vaccinating 5,200 employees-in
three days during the smallpox
scare of April, 1947.

2. Inauguration of a transfer

tem to permit employees to
move to other departments or lo-
calities for pressing personal rea-
sons.

3. Cooperation in a large-scale
X-ray program, which saw 28,690
State employees examined for tu-
berculosis.

The Council's other members
are Charles L. Campbell and

The coming post office exam is
slated to be broadened to Clerk-
Carrier for Brooklyn and’ Queens

Washington, however, he will be
faced with a tough nut—the $10,-
330 limitation upon Federal pay.
This isn’t very much money for
top talent. In New York State,
even some secondary officials earn
more than that, It is rumored
that Mr. Dewey may ask Congress
to raise that pay limitation. New
York State employee pay levels
have gone up substantially in re-
cent years, and Mr. Dewey may
well pursue a “high-pay” policy in
the Presidency. It is doubtful
whether Congress would resist the
new President if he should em-
bark upon such a course; and he
may be in a position to promise
his top job candidates higher
emoluments in the near future.
Congress has already, in fact,

will have the privilege of filling
every attorney post in the Govern-
ment, if he so wishes, because at-
torney positions in all Federal
agencies are exempt from civil

service, (In the Federal service,
“attorney” tions are tin
guished from “legal”

‘The former require admission to
the bar; the latter deal with non-
judicial legal work.) Since many
of the political hangers-on are at-
torneys, here is a frutful source of
reward for the faithful bright boys
and the faithful hacks who have
passed bar examinations, The at-
torney who desires a non-competi-
tive patronage job will certainly
make it his business to perform
little kindnesses within the next
few months for the party leaders
who can help him.
Patronage Fruit

Postmasterships are tradition-
ally plums for the party in power.
Although hedged in with certain
civil service restrictions, these
requirements have not troubled
the politicians. Add here, too, the
positions of Internal Revenue Col-
lectors — considered highly desir-
able by the clubhouse gentry. In
this cptegory include the U.S,
Attorney jobs in the various Fed-
eral districts, under the Depart-
ment of Justice, together with the
larger number of Assistant U. S.
Attorney posts.

These add up to a fairly well

fruit.

party workers in large numbers

McGrath’s Opinion Awaited

“My understanding is that
some of the promotions which
have recently been authorized by
your Commission are based on
certificates which do not specify
@ recent date of examination of
the applicant by the Veteran's Ad-
ministration; nor is the condition
alleged to have been found to ex-
ist described in the certificate. It
appears further that in many
cases the Veterans Administration
has arbitrarily indicated that a
re-examination of the applicant
is deemed to be unnecessary be-
cause of an alleged stabilizad con-
dition of disability existing to an
extent of 10 per cent or more, al-

though on the face of the certi-
ficate it clearly appears that no
recent examination of the appli-

nature of the condition of disa-
billy described makes any mere
conclusion that a “permanent
stabilized condition of disabilty
exists” of no probative force in
the absence of a recent examina-
tion.”

‘The Commission has asked Cor-
poration Counsel John P, McGrath
for an opinion. It points out that
the disputed promotions were made
prior to the decision in Special
Term of the Supreme Court, hold-

ing that less than 10 per cent dis-

The Commission has asked Cor-
poration Counsel John P. McGrath
for an opinion. It points out that
the disputed promotions were made
prior to the decision in Special
Term of the Supreme Court, hold-
ing that less than 10 per cent dis-
ability did not entitle a veteran

Reform Group Sianas Bes,
Criticism of Telesford

Darwin W. Telesford, NYC Civil
Service Commissioner, described
as “baseless and prejudicial” the
Civil Service Reform Association's
statement that his appointment
was made on “a partisan political
basis without any real regard for
the merit system.”

Commissioner Telesford, in a
letter to the Association, listed his
qualifications and past record in
public -service and quoted “in-
formed and impartial persons” as
saying that his qualifications com-
pared “more than favorably with
those of other persons who w
appointed to this Commission
the previous administration:
Neither these appointments nor
the motives of the previous ad-
ministration were questioned by
the Association, he asserted.

‘The Association made a rebuttal
to Commissioner Telesford’s reply
by sending him a letter, signed by
Howard C, Kelly, Chairman of the
Association's Executive Committee,

and by H. Eliot Kaplan, Executive|

Director. A copy was forwarded to
Mayor William O'Dwyer, who ap-
pointed Mr. Telesford. The letter
stated:

“Your assumption that the As-

sociation made no proper inquiry |

as to your qualifications before
arriving at its conclusions is un-
founded. We assure you that every
effort was made in the hope of
finding some demonstrable evi-
dence in your record and experi-
ence which might have affirma-
tively indicated an interest in the
merit system of administration of
the civil service, or sufficiently

ample experience to justify a con-
clusion of suitability for so respon-
sible a position as a member of
the Civil Service Commission. We
were aware of your experience as
an Assistant Attorney General and
as a-law secretary to a Supreme
Court Justice. We were also aware
Jof your active political career
which is one you undoubtedly have
reason to believe justifies your se-
lection for the Commission.

“While it may be true that your
qualifications compare favorably
with those of some others hereto-
fore appointed as members of the
Municipal Civit Service Commis-
sion, this by no means precludes
the ‘Association from not secking
to raise the standards of qualifi-
cations for appointment to the
Commission.

“I asked you to point out any
blemish in my previous record of |
|public service. You have failed
|to do so. I take it that the reason
|for your failure is that you have |
found none, since you state that
you are well aware of my previous
public experience. I regard this
of paramount importance in con-
|nection with my appointment,
| since my previous satisfactory
record in public service indicates
that my appointment here was
not due solely to political con-
siderations as you have implied |
and is, at the same time, the most
valid asurance that I will perform |
|my duties as Commissioner with
satisfaction.”

Against Welfare Dept. Supervisor

The LEADER noticed that

3, the roster for the Department
of Welfare alone was missing,

Investigation disclosed that the|

reasons: 1, the seniority ratings

Employment
Hits NewPeak

State and local governments in|
the U. S. are employing more
people than ever before, the Civil
Service Assembly reports.

Employment by States and lo-
calities now is almost twice that
in the federal government, a
marked change since the height of
the war when federal civilian em-
ployees outnumbered those of all
States and local jurisdictions put
together. Since -945, Federal em-
ployment has decreased more than
40 percent while other public em-
ployment has risen more than 22
percent.

The war and postwar growth of
cities, population increase of the
nation as a whole, and expanded
state and local ses boosted |
public employment for states and |
localities to an 2 high of |
3,859,000 in January

a 14.8 per-
cent net increase since January |
1940.

Ernenwein Broadcasts
Facts on Salary Bill

George E, Ernenwein, President
of the N.Y, State Federation of
Post Office Clerks, broadcasting
over WHLI, told about what went
on in Congress during the U.S.
pay bill debate. He listed the pro-
visions of the bill:

“1, A $450 permanent increase
in salary for postal employees.

“2, 25¢ per hour increase for
substitutes and temporary em-
ployees.

Federal employees will re-
ceive a permanent increase of ap-
proximately $330,

“4, Fourth class postmasters
will receive a 25% increase.

“5, Special Delivery messengers
will receive an increase in car
allowance from 7c to 90c per
hour,

“@, Above increases to take ef-
fect July 1, 1948,

“7, Postal rate increases

It was estimated that the total
cost involved would amount to
$527,000,000. ‘The postal increase
would inyolve an expenditure of
211,000,000 while the Federal em-
ployee increase would cost about
$300,000,000,

‘The rever
would be in

e of the Department
ed by $125,000,000

The reason for the non-issuance
of the list was explained to Com-
missioner Raymond Hilliard and
he immediately made a prelimin-
ary check-up. He was convinced
that there was ground for holding

up the list and told Commission |

President Joseph A. McNamara
so. Also, he promised that an
equitable service rating policy
would be inaugurated in the Wel-
fare Department as soon as he
had completed his final check-up.
Sees Law Violation

President McNamara’s attention
was called to the service ratings
by his own bureau handling that
work and be found that departure
from normal rating was obvious.
He issued instructions that the
Rating Bureau reduce the record
and seriously ratings, on the
ground that the higher ratings
given by Welfare Department
Supervisors gave the beneficiaries
unfair advantage. He told Com-
