Patrolmen May ‘Split
On Years
A proposal that some Patrolmen receive pensions after pay-
ing 9 percent for 25 years, while others, contributing a larger
proportion, retire after 20 years, added a further complication
this week to the expected settlement of the police and fire
yension controversy.
However, spokesmen were|
confident that the settlement
would soon be forthcoming,

departments would approve their
action. Joseph J, Burkard, presi-

New Adventure
IIE MUNICIPAL Civil Service Com-
mission's recent transfer of thousands
of labor positions in the Sanitation Dept. to
the competitive service is a definite forward
step.
Much of the alarm over the type of test
which may be given for the new title of Sani
jation Man is entirely unfounded, The Com-
mission has made it clear that no “scholas-
n and that any written
tie” tests will be giv
exam will be a simple literacy test, qua
ing in natiire instead of competiti
The competitive features of the Sanitation
exam will be confined to the physical tests
which will be closely related to those given
last Spring to Police candidates.
This’ new experiment in extending the
competitive system to the labor class field
will be watched with keen interest. Future
employees will benefit through eligibility for
promotion exams, through additional job se-
curity, and through an opportunity to par-
ticipate in the commission's service rating
program
For a Better Personnel
HAN ITER step to get the best qualified
persons for government positions has
heen taken by the New York Bar Assn. Fol-
lowing conferences with the city and State
commissions, a special committee reports
that henceforth attorneys in meeting exam
requirements will receive recognition for
their training. wee
While this represents no new policy, it is
the first time that a real organized effort is
being made to attract attorneys. Better still,
the Bar Assn, committee pledges to extend
the campaign so fellow professionals in other
lines also will be urged to enter government
service.
Use Available Lists

F plain that in spite of thousands of
names of qualified eligibles on a list, few

They say they must canvas scores of names
before reaching a person willing to accept

Brushing aside some of the reasons for
these deelinations, including adequate sal-
ary, why do the commissions permit pro-
visional appointments when such lists

pose: instead of using other appropriate

Such a list as Assistant File Clerk, for
example, could be used for some of the lower
clerical positions when other lists do not
produce sufficient appointees. ‘This list

We do not wish to suggest that the Junior
Clerk list be passed by, but if nene on that
list is available, then eligibl n other lists
should be given consideration befere provi-
sionals are appointed.

More Commission Funds
Sir: It {s my belief that Civil Service should be continually extended
and that there are very, very few positions in the service that can-
not be filled through competitive examinations. I feel that constant
study and constant effort should +
be made to improve the condition
of the Civil Service employee and
to make him happy and contented in
his job, to encourage initiative and
develop courtesy and uprightness.
It is my understanding from
reading the papers from time to
time that the Municipal Civil
Service Commission is continually
being held down to a small budget
and that the employees in that de-
partment are the poorest paid in
jortion to their scholarly at-
tainments and ability and the work
they have to do.
This, it seems to me, is very wrong,
because through the work of this de-
partment, the city service can be
tremendously improved, or very
much hampered, Money spent in
that department in procuring the
best available talent to be had any-
where in the country, in the matter
of studying, preparing, giving ex-
aminations and working out methods
| and plans to keep the Civil Service
| respe
employee happy, is well and profit-
ably used, Ample money should be
voted to this department and care
and attention should be given to see
fo it that it is well and properly
used.

Telephone Man’s Friend
Sir: As a friend of the telephone
men, newly appointed to the Police
Dept., who are now at the Police
Academy for three weeks of in-
tensive training in police procedures,
I wish to take this means of refuting
the letter published in last week's
issue of the Civil Service Leader,
and signed a “Friend of the Police.”
However he may feel as regards
the Mayor and the Civil Service
‘Commission's policy to make a po-
lice job a profession so that college
men may turn to it, let me say ir-
ive of our attitude towards
this same policy that we are NOT
college men, and never claimed to
be. But we are men with intensi-
fied telephone experience and train-
ing with years of “key” work at the
Jargest switchboards in the country.
New York has some of the largest
switchboards in the country at its
| hospitals and hotels and large busi-
ness organizations and these men
who have been appointed to the Po-
lice Dept. have spent years at work
at these boards.
‘The 37 men are the tops in tele-
phone work in New York, They
are of the first 50 men who passed
one of the most difficult telephone
examinations ever held—in which
300 men applied and only 16%
passed! They are not college men
in the sense my opponent says, but |
with their education and
ence they stand tested, tri
true. They possess technical de-
tailed telephone knowledge and
experience only obtainable through
years of hard work,
Are we to take to task their hon-
esty and intergrity when these tele-
phone men have passed a difficult
Civil Service examination and main-
tained their positions throughout the
necessary investigations before ap-
pointment is possible? Are we to
castigate them—they are honorable
citizens—before they are tried at
their responsibilities? Because those
responsibilities are important and
confidential in police work does it
follow that they cannot fulfill them?
All switehboard work is con-
fidential and important, whether
it be in hospitals, hotels or big
business. They are key positions
upon whose operators depend the
immediate facilitation of every-
thing that is trivial and important,
In the experience of these men
you will find innumerable occa-
sions where seconds counted,
where lives were at stake...
In the interest of economy and
efficiency in our municipal govern-
ment these men e agreed to ac-
cept the low salaries but in the suc-
cessful fulfillment of their duties
they are looking ahead to advance-
ment.

Add Kleeman
Sir: I am very grateful for your in-
terest in the work done on Trichino-
sis control as expressed in your
“Merit Men.”
The story, however, does not make
clear the hardships and sacrifices
that Mr. Kleeman, my co-worker,
made in the course of these studies.
You will recall that this work was
done during January and February,
the coldest months of the year. Mr.
Kleeman verily slept with the pigs
from five to six weeks, starting early
ig the morning and ending late at
night. His hands and body was at
times stiff from the cold, but that did
not deter him from the task at hand.
Mr. Kleeman, although a young
man in the service, h: et an excel-
lent example of self-sacrifice and in-
terest in scientific research relating
to public health, He received no ad-
ditiona] compensation or reward for
his part in this work, It is my feel-
ing that Mr. Kleeman has displayed
a keen scientific attitude throughout
these studies and the record should
be made clear.
Again may I express my thanks
and appreciation for your interest
in Civil Service employees and their
welfare.

gibles in the Fire. Dept. However, the day
before the Fire eligible list was published, 197
men on the Police list were appointed to the
Fire Dept.
Last Summer, when the old Police list expired
Quinn and his group attempted to have their
list used for Police appointments, but the com.
mission turned thumbs down on this, Saying
there was a variation in physical requirements
for the positions.
Quinn’s association is made up of about 4,009
of the remaining 5,000 men on the list. It’s the
largest group of eligibles in the city. Their
biggest problem is to get jobs for members
while they are waiting for regular appointment,
Some of the members now work at WPA jobs,
others have only part-time work.
World’s Fair Took 450
Quinn sold the World’s Fair management on
the idea of using the Fire eligible list for posi-
tions as Special Police last Spring. About 450
men were placed at $30 a week, Eighty of them
will be retained this Winter.
Last month, through efforts of Quinn and
others in the association, the Municipal Ciyj)
Service Commission decided to use the Fire list
to fill vacancies in the Sanitation Dept. As 4
result about 500 men will get jobs in the next
year.
Several times Quinn has gone to Albany and
lobbied to have labor jobs switched to the com-
petitive class, And on every occasion his efforts
were directed towards getting as many posi-
tions as possible declared appropriate for the
Fire list, which expires in 1941. Before that
time, unless it is used for other positions, about
1,000 men will get jobs.
But if there are any chances that the list
will be used for other purposes, Ed Quinn is
more than likely to be on the spot trying to
sew up jobs for his fellow members.

Federal Messengers
Please let me congratulate you on the note |
worthy innovation of your Complaint Corner,
Your publication, since its inception, has been
outstanding as a truly representative organ,
expressing the needs and views of Civil Service
employees,
I would like to take this opportunity to voice
a complaint against the desperate condition
faced by federal messengers in the local field
service, The Junior and Assistant Messenger
list was promulgated in April, 1937. Certifica-
tions were made for the Junior Mesenger posi-
tions at a salary of $600.a year (approximately
$12 a week), with no immediate prospects for
promotion except a possible future certification
as Assistant Messenger at $1,080 a year.
To further aggravate this situation, the fed-
eral commission arbitrarily rescinded a former
order, reversed its stand, and summarily dis-
qualified Junior Messenger appointees from
eligibility to Assistant Messenger certification.
This dealt a crushing blow to any hopes we
might have had toward a brighter future.
Our only solution is to bring to light the pre-
cariousness of our position through the medium
of a publication such as the Civil Service
Leader and perhaps, finally, to obtain the sym-
pathetic treatment so vitally needed by the
lowest paid group in governmental service.

The legislation has been given a,

of the session convening January 3,|
1940, Its chances of passage are
considerably improved by the enact-|
ment of the Hatch law forbidding

This is because, as one legislator put
it, “Now we've stopped government

way, there remains no political ob-|
jection to putting them under Civil
Service.”
Extension of the Classification Act
to the field, as provided in the bill, |
means that the wage scales paid for

Restoration of State
Increment Law Seen
Important hearings are now being held in Albany by
Budget Director Abraham S. Weber and heads of State De-
partments to fix the 1940 budget for New York State. Most
employees are confident that no serious cuts for State depart-
ments will follow these hearings. They also believe that the
legislature will restore the provisions of the 1937 Feld-Hamil-
ton law, which was suspended last year. Because of wide-
spread interest in this measure, The Leader has asked John
De Graff, counsel for the Association of State Civil Ser-
vice Employees, to write an article explaining its provisions.
Although the economies of the 1939 session were, in a large
measure, taken out of the hides of State employees, they are
convinced public discussion has shown that the State govern-
ment is operated on an efficient and economical basis.
Citizens, as well as mem-*
bers of the Legislature, have
concluded that it was unwise
to suspend the salary plan embodied
by the Feld-Hamilton Law—to save
$1,000,000 in a budget of $40,000,000,

Explains Feld-Hamilton Law
‘EV’ Line Workers
Reassured on Jobs
From many comments by
employees, The Leader has
learned that workers on the
Second and Ninth Ave, Ele-
vated lines have fears that
they will lose their jobs be-
fore transit unifications oc-
curs. These fears, according
to reliable authorities, are un-
warranted.
Action on the discontinuance of
the lines, they say, is remote, and
it is probable that they will be in-
cluded in any unification plan
adopted by the city. It is also be-
lieved that no attempt will be made
by the city to dismiss elevated em-
ployees, even if the lines are later
pped, until a Civil Service status
is granted,
