MEMO TO LEGISLATORS
CRUELTY
TO PENSIONERS
A most serious and disturbing stopper suddenly occurred
in the State Legislature last weel, On the ground that State
retirement operations might be thrown out of kilter, one of
the most hwmane of ail pieces of legislation haa been sud-
denly endangered—a measure which would allow the State
and municipalities to inerease the retirement allowances of
civil service pensioners. Incredible as it seems, some of these
pensioneys—after a lifetime of public service—get as little
as $40 @ month. The average pension of former State em-
ployecs, we learn, is about $1,000 a year, The legislation is in
the form of a constitutional amendment which was passed
by the Legistature once and, as is required by law, is up
again this year, The Senate passed it unanimously. In the
Assembly, it is being held up. The New York Times on
Friday, February 23, ran an editorial which expresses our
sentiments on the subject. We reprint it below with approval.
NE of the cruel results of inflation and the high cost
of living is the impoverishment of elderly people liv-
ing on a fixed income. Among these people are retired
school teachers and other civil servants who have no fixed
income except their pensions, based on the considerably
lower salaries of other days. In New York State, for in-
Stance, are some teachers who retired in the Nineteen
Twenties and the Nineteen Thirties who have pensions as
Jow as $40 or $50 « month. Senator Francis J. Mahoney,
Democrat of Manhattan, is sponsoring a constitutional
amendment that would permit but not require the Legisla-
ture to supplement these meager pensions for former civil
servants and give them a livable income.
This concurrént resolution passed both branches of }
in this Legislature, the measure was approved unanimous-
ly by the Senate on Feb. 7, but has now run into trouble
through objections by Controller MeGovern that the re-
tirement system might be thrown out of balance. A final
decision has been put off until next week. If passed by the
Assembly the proposal would automatically go to a vote
of the people in referendum next November. ]
We do not know whether this empowering amend-

‘No Fight’
Over Rebate,
Says Bendet
Sol Bondet, president of the
New York City Chapter, Civil Ser-
vice Employees Association, has
vigorously denied the implications
of an article appearing In a New
York City daily newspaper which
stated that a ‘major internal
fight" was in the making over
Association rebates to chapters,
Mr, Bendet pointed out that there
was no battle over this issue, that
it has been under consideration
for some years, that any attempt
to make it appear us though e rift
were developing over the issue is
far from the facts, and that an
Association committee has for
some time been studying the / ated.

Disabled Vets

ALBANY, Peb. 26 — Assembly-
man Frank J. McMullen bow in-
troduced two bills dealing with the

Dts
ALBANY, Feb. 20—At press-
time, the issue of salary increases
for State employees was still un-
settled. The Civil Service Em-
Ployees Association had flatly
turned down an offer of $300 or
10 percent (whichever is greater),
with @ $1,000 maximum, that had
been made by representatives of
the State, A meeting with Gov.
Dewey was requested by the Asso-
clation’s leaders, The Association
represents more than 50,000 em-
ployees.
The Association will not under
any circumstances “accept” the
formula proposed. And confer-
ences were expected on Monday,
February 26, between Budget Di-
rector T. Norman Turd, Republi-
can legislative leaders, and the
Thor on the impasse so ore.
A Double Shock
The $300-or-10 per cent formula
came as a double shock to the
Association negotiators because
they had good reason to believe,
after thelr strenuous series of ne-
gotiations, that the Governor's
representatives were prepared to
go much farther in accepting the
employee viewpoint, The original
Association forantila was a 15 per-
cent increase plus additional in-
creases based on the cost-of-living
index, The group's Board of Di-
rectors passed a unanimous reso-
lution that nothing Jess than an
across-the-board 15 percent in-
crease would meet Association en-
dorsement. One of the formulas,
which might have been the basis
for m compromise, was this: 15
percent on the firat $3,000 of
salary, 10 percent on salary from
$3.000 to $5,000, and 5 percent on
salary over $5,000, with a maxl-
mum of $1,000 increase, The Asso-
ciation might have gone along
h such & compromise, but indi~
cations as this is written are that
nothing less than that could be
“brought back” to the employees.
Defects in State Pian
The Association negotiators
point out many weaknesses in the
$300-and-10% formula, For one
thing it distorts the whole wage
structure, narrowing the range be-
tween those at the $1,800 range
and those at the $3,000 level, This
fs a palpable injustice to those at
the $3,000 level.
A related defect is pointed out.
New people who have recently
come Into the service at the lower
wradts—at $1,840, $1,900, or $2,000
—get an increment in uddition to
the pay raise. The older employee,
the one who has been in service
ten or 15 or 20 years, gets no in-
erement, The older and more
valuable employee ts thus in a
sense penalized. The man earning
$3,000 or $4,000 who has been in
service, say, ten years, actually
gets less increase than the employ~
ee who had been in service only
one year and earns $2,000.
Some 40 percent of State em-
ployees are in the $2,500-t0-$3,500
bracket, Between the $2,500-to-
$4,000 bracket, are 50 percent of
the State employers. The State's
formula hits these employees
hardest, and they are in the main
the "backbone" of the service, the
persons with homes and families
who most need the ihcreases,
The Association's negotiators ad-
mit that at the higher levels—
above $8,000—the State's plan is
slightly better than the 15%-10%=
$% proposal. But there are com.
paratively few employees at this
level, and those in the lower and
middle range are those who need
the most effective help at this time,
The Association is continuing
vigorous battle, and its negotiators
feel that the admintstration’s ne-
gotiators have been persuaded te
the Association point of view; and
that the “hold-off” is at a higher
level, either with the legislative
leaders or the Governor.
Conference He!
Some hope was seen in state
ments made by Republican Jeaders
Senator Arthur Wicks and Assem~
blyman D, Mallory Stephens that
another conference would be held.
In the meantime, a bill intro-
duced by Assemblyman Orin Wil-
cox, chairman of the Assembly
Civil Service Committee, sets up &
cost-of-living plan for State em-
ployees, Salaries of State em-
ployees, under this measure, would
be tied to the official cost-of-lving
index, and would rise or fall in
accordance with monthly compu-
tations made by the Comptroller.
Neither this bil! nor any other not
haying administration approval ie
likely to pass,
Governor to Address Association
One interesting factor in this
situation Ls the fact that Governor
Dewey is scheduled, to be the
speaker at the annual dinner-
meeting of the Association on
Thursday, March 1. Some were
asking how he would be able to
jexpiain away at that meeting @
proposal so widely unpopular as
the $300-and-10 percent proposal,
if that should be the one which
the administration decides te
hang on to.
Difference Not Great
Tt ts pointed out that the differ~
ence in the “unacceptable” and
the robably acceptable” pro-
posals is wboul $4,500,000. The pro-
posal of the Governor's represen-
tatives would cost about $16,500,-
000; the 15%-10%-5% formula
about $23,000,000. These figures
would be reduced substantially if
the State sticks to the Governor's
Intent not to fill any but the most
essential positions, Assemblyman
Stephens, chairman of the power-
ful Assembly Ways and Means
Committee, has indicated he was
ready to go up to $21,000,000.
Employee Opinion Strong
Meanwhile, employees in various
parts of the State are making felt
their displeasure at the pay
formulas so far made public, A
group of 13 chapter beads in the
metropolitan area, representing
nearly 10,000 employees, wired
Jesse B. MoParland, Association
president, that the opinion of em-
ployees in the area ts for strong
rejection of anything less than the
15 percent formula, There is real
bitterness over the 10 percent offer,
The Association's negotiators
have urged th: the pay raise
must meet not only present con-
ditions but those which are likely
to arise in 4 year of heightening
living conta.

Appeals to Young Coupies
PINELAWN, L. L, Feb, 27—The
young folks are buying more and
more of the family plots in our
new park plan sections,” Alfred D,
Locke, president of Pinelawn, the
country's largest private cemetery,
said today,
Mr, Locke attributed the increase
in purchases among young couples
to three factors:
1. Young couples are attracted by
the park plan, where plaques
set level with’ the lawn dignify
the natural beauty of trees,
shrubs, flowers and lawns,
. There ts a growing desire among
young couples to establish a
family memorial now, which
Succeeding generations will find
3. The present low purchase price
of $130 for @ four-burial family
piot and Pinelawn's Convenient
Payment Plan are strong rea-
sons for selecting a memorial
place now,

RECENTLY a pensioner was in-
vited to attend a stall function
at Willard State Hospital. In the
course of conversation she was
| asked how she was getting along
and replied that, whereas her pen-
she paid $35 & month for rent, it
was quite apparent she wasn't hay-
ing a good time. However, she was
scraping along, It was particularly
hard. however, when birthdays
and Christmas rolled around, and
she had nothing with which to
give little presents to her many
nephews and nieces.
The employees at Willard took
up a collection for the former
State employee and delivered $103
to her,
However, tt fs a sorry thing that
an employee who gives her adult
Nfe to public service should have
to depend on charitable gifts,

‘Vesting of
Pensions’ —
A Necessary Measure
HE Legislature has been
asked, in a measure recently
introduced, to permit “vesting of pensions. This
Means that any member who leaves the service after five
years for any reason except
discharge may leave his re-
tirement contributions on deposit and have pension credit
“vested” to produce a retirement allowance for him at age
55 or age 60, depending on which plan he had elected. A
second measure would grant the same privilege after 20
years of service, Both bills, drawn by the Civil Service Em-
ployees Association, were introduced by Senator Halpern
and Assemblyman Noonan,
Under present law, a member of the State Retirement
System who voluntarily leaves the service before reaching
retirement age receives nothing but his accumulated con-
tributions together with interest. He loses the entire pen-
sion credit which he has earned by his years of service.
Even worse is the plight of the employee whose position
is abolished through no fault of his own. He, too, loses his
pension credit unless he can qualify for the restricted ‘‘dis-
continuance service’ benefits
now in the law.
The injustice of this measure is made evident by the
many recent dismissals in the Division of Placement and
Unemployment Insurance, resulting not only in loss -of
jobs but of retirement allowances as well; and of employees
in Schenectady who last year
lost their jobs—and their re-
tirement security—when a new political administration took
power. The Halpern-Noonan
measures have been before
the Legislature year after year. These are unusual days;
no one can foresee what is likely to happen. The bills of-
fer a necessary protection to employees, and cost the
Unit of government nothing. The five-year vesting bill (S.
Intro, 517, A. Intro, 687) should be passed.

Veterans’ Rights in Exams
The State Civil Service Depart-
ment has tsiued a booklet, “Vet-
erans’ Rights in Civil Service Ex-
aminations,” in which the subject
ta treated in question-and-answer
Jorm as follows:
When do the new Mitchell
Constitutional Amendment and
its enabling legisiation, Chapter
404, go into effect?
A. January 1, 1951.
Q. How do the benefits grant-
ed Veterans under the new amend-
ment differ from the preference in
appointment and promotion pres-
ently in effect?
A, Under the old Conatitu-
tional provisions, which were in
existence until December 31, 1950,
disabled veterans, after qualifying
im examination, were given abso~
tute preference in sppolntment and
Promotion over non-disabled vyet-
erans and non-veterans, and non-
disabled veterans were given abso-
lute preference in appointment and
omotion over non-Vveterans, The
itchell Amendment doe away
with “preference” and provides
instead for additional credite in
competitive examinations for orl-
inal appointment or promotion.
new amendment provides that
on and after wary 1, 1951, dis~
abled veterans shall be granted
10 points additional credit in ex-
aminations for original appoint-
ment and 5 points additional
eredit in examinations for promo-
don; non-disabled veterans shall
be granted § points additional
eredit in examinations for origt-
Bal appointment and 24% points
additional credit in examinations
for promotion.
fone ——
te Cepeda,
‘Under the new amendment
mung fers be required
abled velerans
before a non-veteran can be ap~
pointed?
A. No, Under the new law, an
appointing officer wishing to fill a
vacancy may appoint one out of
the three highest ranking eligibles
willing to accept appointment, re~
gardless of the veteran status of
the three eligibles, Por example,
suppose three eligibles are certi-
fied to fill & vacancy and No, } is
‘&@ disabled veteran, No, 2 is a non-
disabled veteran and No. 3 is a
non-veteran, The appointing officer
may appoint No, 3 if he wishes,
He is not obliged to appoint No, 2
x No, 2. The “one out of three”
rule is based on the decision of the
Court of Appeals in the case of
Balcom vy, Mosher, 163 N. ¥, 82.
In that case the Court of Appeals
held that the constitutional power
of appointment vested in public
officers would be nullified by a rule
requiring the appointing officer to
appoint the highest ranking eligi-
ble. The court held that the power
of appointment necessarily includ-
ed a power of choloe. It was from
this decision that the “one out of
three” rule evolved, This rule pre
serves the appointing officer's right
to a choice and still satisfies the
requirement that appointments
shall be made according to merit
and fitness. Since the benefits
granted to veterans under the new
amendment are restricted to ad-
ditional credits in examinations,
veterans ure not entitled to the
further advantage of preference
in appointment and promotion
over non-velerans,
Q. Does the Mitchell Amend-
ment apply to eligible Hate in ex-
dstence on January 1, 1961, which
were established prior to January
41, 10617
A. Yes, All eligible listy which
the fina) earned ratings the appli-
cable credits for disabled and non-
disabled veterans in Meu of the
absolute preference — heretofore
granted, (The fina) earned rating
ds the average of the ratings re-
ceived in all the subjects of an ex-
amination and represents the can
didate’s final examination score.)
The actual revision of these lists
was made some time before Jan~
Uary 1, 1951, but the revised lists
weren't effective until that date.
Q. On He's exeablished ater
January 1, 1951, when are addi-
tional credits granted?
A, Additional credits shall be
granted only at the time of the es-
tablishment of the eligible list and
may not, under any circumstances,
be granted after the eligible list ts
established,
Q, Are the qualifications reqtir-
ed for additional points es a non-
disabled yeteran different from
those previously required for pre-
ference in appointment and pro-
motion as a non-disabled veteran?
A. No,
Q. When can a veteran or dis-
abled veteran apply for additional
credits?
A. Claims for additional credit
in competitive examinations may
be made at the time of filing ap-
plication for examination, or at
any time up to the date of the
establishment of the resulting
eligible list, However, it tx ad-
visable that candidates wishing to
claim additional credits in an ex-
amination do so at the time of
filing thelr applications for. ex-
amination or as soon thereafter as
sufficient time in re to
eatablish thelr eligibility for addi-
ibs,

Editor, The ui
There has been a great deal of
misrepresentation In civil service
¢ | quarters about the Mitchell-Brook
Bureau of Attendance Bill now be~
fore the State Legislature.
+ Opponents of the measure are
saying tts passage would be a de-
feat for the merit system and
would lower the standards for
school attendance officers, Neither
of these statements is true.
The bill upholds the merit sys-
tem. It strengthens the principle
of civil service, It means that com-
petence and qualifications, not po~
Utical Influence, will determine
appointmenta,
‘This ts what the bill does: It
calls for a competitive examina-
tion, open to all, including the
Present Bureau of Attendance
personnel, who shall be given full
credit for their experience, for the
top posts in the Attendance Bu-
eau.
At prevent, the Education Law
says that only present employees
of the Bureau shail ¥e eligible for
the top Jobs. All but the director's
Job have been filled from within
the ranks, Of 35 employces eligi-
ble to qualify for the director's
Job, only six have tried to take
the examination for the position.
All of them failed to pass. None
‘was found to be “fit and meritori-
ous,”
The Attendance Bureau is a key
division in the Board of Educa-
tion. It deals with thousands of
children whose truancy is but a
symptom of more serious trouble,
‘The top officials of the Board of
Education know that modern child
guidance methods require new ap-
proaches and fresh techniqu
The Attendance Bureau js the
place to start applying these mod-
ern methods,
The Superintendent of Schools
wants the best man he can get for
this job. He is entitled to that,
children deserve that.
A qualified director could give
the Attendance Bureau the leader-
ship it needs, He can institute in-
service training courses for the
present personnel, many of whom
lack college education,
He can bring the new needed
approach to this key Bureau,
The Attendance Bureau is the
only piace in the entire school
system where the archaic law says
that only preeent personnel can
fill the top posts, The test was
given. All six who took it failed.
They can try again—but this time
others who are “0 qualified
would be allowed to compete, The
most qualified man would be ap-
pointed,
What could be fairer than that?
‘The question boils down to this:
Are six people who couldn't qual-
ify for & job to be permitted to
force the appointment of one of
them—the least unqualified—to
this vital post?
Are children who need help to
be the victims of six employees
who cun't pass an examination for
the Job they covet?
Are the taxpayers entitied to a
$16,250 a year man for a $16,250
@ year Job?
These are the key questions. If
the ix believe they are qualified
for the director's Job, let them
compete in an open examination,
where full credit would be given
for their Attendance Bureau ex-
perience, with others who are also
uMlified. And let the best man get
we Job.
But let's not make Innocent
children the scapegoats of a pa-
tromage battle. Let's instead try
to get the most qualified man for
& most important job.

away a large number of bachelors

Your Income Tax
By HERMAN BERNARO
Author of the book, “How to Save Money on Your Income Tox Return.”
STATE TAXES for a public
Purpose are deductible from in-
come under the U. 8. Income tax
law. They include the State in-
come tax itself, also the State tax
on gasoline (4 cents a gallon) and
the State cigarette tax (3 cents a
pack). Thus. if one used 1,000
gallons of gasoline in 1960 the de-
duction from one's income would
be $40. If one smoked a pack of
cigarettes a day the deduction
would be 365x$.03 or $10.95.
Loca) sales taxes are also de-
ductible, In NYC the sales tax in
1950 was 2 per cent. Por personal
purposes up to $25 may be con-
sidered deductible; if one bought
any costly items, such as an auto-
mobile or a television set, the sules
tax deduction should be stated se-
parately and additionally for
these. That may be done on a
single line, as “Auto bought, $40
television set, $6," if their respec-
live costs were $2,000 and $300.
Auto Plates Deductible
Also deductible is the coxt of
auto license plates. The plates and
the gasoline may be included on
one line, If desired, “Auto
plates and gas, $55," for 1,000 gal-
Tons’ use and $15 for plates,
Real Estate Taxes
‘Taxes on real estate also may
be deducted. Tf you own and fully
occupy # one-family house the de-
duction is made on Page 3 of the
1040, under Taxes, and the inter-
est on the mortgage Is also deduc-
tible on the same page, under In-
terest,
Not deductible are local assesa-
ments, such as for sewers, paving
and the like, These are considered
capital improvements,
Water taxes are nob deductible
on ® one-family house occupied
by the owner, Real estate taxes on
land and building, Interest on
mortgage and casunity loss are the
only deductible items in regard to
a one-family house occupied by
the owner,
Water Taxes
If a house or other building ts
rented, and the owner occupies a
part, the water taxes are deducti-
ble ax & qunsd-business cost, but
only proportionately, If the owner
occupies two-thirds of the prop-
erty and A tenant one-third, then
only one-third of the water taxes
are deductible. The same propor-
subject to reduction even when
property or partly
occupied by a bear Since the
owner-occupant of one-family
house Is entitled to fan deduction
for taxes and interest, and when
premises are rented to another the
deduction possibilities only rise,
never shrink, the owner of rented
property should be careful not to
apply any proportionate reduction
and do himself out of considerable
saying,
Where premises are rented by
the owner, depreciation deduction
apply only to the cost of the
structure, and not to the land,
because the land alone dors not
depreciate, isn't reduced in value
by wear and tear,
A good way to insure full tax
saving is to include all taxes under
Taxes on Page 3 of the 1040, even
in regard to real estate. ‘That
tion applies to the other costs.
such as repulr and other expenses | Principle would apply to interest,
(like maintenance, fuel, insurance | '00, in the, spacd' separately, pro-
vided on Page 3 for that. Then
there would be no inadvertent re-
duction of deductibn, where there
are paying tenants,
Federal taxes are not teductible
for U, 3. tax purposes,
What the Benefit Is
‘The deductions referred to affect
net income, The benefit is the pro-
portionate amount resulting aoe
application of the tax rate. For
the net income range to and in-
cluding $2,000—after all exemp-
tions and deductior a=
fit ts 17.4 per cent of the deduc-
and the like), Qepreciation may
be claimed, also, at the rate of 2
per cent of the cost of the house
or other building, if brick or
stone; 3 per cent if frame or
stucco, If there is part occupancy
by the owner, the proportionate
reduction must be applied to de-
preciation, too. No depreciation Is
allowed on a property from which
no rent or royalty in received.
Taxes and Interest in Fall
‘The deduction for taxes and in-
terest is 100 per cent, and not
tion. Por higher Income brackets
the benefit is greater,

On Special Exam
The United States government
holds special exams for the blind.
An exam for blind typists In now
open. NYC doesn't do quite that,
‘but it does not exclude anybody
from an exam because of blind-
ness, Also, it allows more time to
a blind candidate and provides an
amanuensis. But a special exam
for the blind by NYC might be
considered to contravene the con~
stitutional provision that al) exams
Must be competitive, so far as
practicable. Limiting an exam to
& group, even blind persons, would
not fit the competitive require-
ment, the Commission feels,
Otherwise it would follow the
Federal example,

John F, Crane, president of the

took sharp issue with his former
boss, Pire Commissioner Prank J.

In rebuttal, Mr, Crane charged ; Vea Umit,
that Commissioner Monaghan's
stand was evidently arrived at
without any consideration of the
facta, but rather with an eye to
headiines.
Calls Action Far Afieid
“The Commissioner's excuse for
Wapting to refuse me recognition
at the Pension Board meeting,”
sald Mr. Crane, “was supposed to
be based on the constitution and
by-laws of the UFA. But, our or-
ganization’s constitution clearly
allows me to remain as president,
Furthermore, {t seems to me that
Mr, Monaghan ts going pretty far
afield in trying to uct as Interpre-
ter of the laws of an independent
fireman's association not subject
to his dictates, and tell its mem-
bers who may or may not repre-
sent them.”
Mr. Crane cited Article IV, See- |,’
tion 1, of the constitution and by- | i,
laws of the International Associs- | wi:
tion of Fire Fighters, parent or-
ganization of the UPA, in support
of his position, especially the fol-
lowing portion; “Local unions,
may, when any member thereof in
good standing separates him:
from the service, allow said mem-
ber to retain his active member~
ship in sald union.”
How Members Fret |
“The members of the UPA.” Mr,
Crane added, “have indicated by
their votes that they want me to
continue as a member and as head
of our union.”
This remark referred to a re-
cent general membership meeting | f!
at which UPA membere gave him
& strong vote of confidence,

Ajterthoughts on
General Order No. 8
N the welter of charges about corruption and wrong-
doing by NYC employees, the screaming headlines about
cop-bookie collusion, the occasional somber stories of po-
lice brutality, it is a sobering experience to sit and read
quietly the “General Orders No. 8” of the Police Depart-
ment which appeared on February 19. These tell of 280
members of the force who risked their lives, many times in
im circumstances, to provide safety and help for the
people of the City. These facta must never be forgotten
while the others spill over the newspapers and the radio.
Incidentally, another interesting fact that comes out
of this document is the democracy of the merit system.
Among the names of the heroic policemen are such as
these: John E. McEvilley, Edward G. Schultz, Edwin J.
Zounck, Milton Cohen, Frank Kowalski, Thomas M. Far-
rell, Peter P. Golemboski,
John R. Hudson, Frank La | ff
Forge, Basil G. Minikakig, Donato Camoia.

‘voting 3 OR CREDIT FOR
TIME IN SERVICE
“SENTORITY” has several mean-
ings. depending upon the benefits
claimed on a seniority basis. By
“seniority” is generally meant
eredit for time spent in public ser-
vice, both in the position currently
held and in positions previously
held. Such time-service credit may
be used for purposes of promotion,
retention, fixing of salary, accrual
of increments and for retirement.
Sometimes “seniority” is also used
to determine an employee's tour

of duty or “pick,” where the work
is such as to require continuous
duty on a 24-hour basis.
Seniority for Promotion
The Civil Service Law provides
that in making promotions, due
weight shall be given to seniority.
Generally, this is done on a point
or score basis, allowing a fixed
amount of credit for each year
spent in service prior to the pro.
motion examination. For promo~-
tion purposes, seniority is limited
to the time spent in actual service
in the lower grade from which pro-
motion {s sought, and not time
spent serving in some other grade
or position, However, the Military
Law provides that time during
which an employee was absent on
honorable military service shall be
counted as satisfactory service for
promotion purposes. All time act~
ually served in the lower grade
must be counted, even if such ser-
vice was rendered partly in one
department and partly in another,
except that a minimum period of
service in the lower grade in the
department may be prescribed as
an eligibility qualifieation or
condition for admission to the
promotion examination. Another bot
provision of the Civil Service Law
empowers civil service commissions
to grant additional credit in pro.
motions examinations for honor-
able military service, by giving
increased ratings In such subjects
as “record and seniority,” “train-
ing” or “experience.”
Seniority for Retention
Retention of employees upon
Jay-otfs for economy is determined
by the “Inverse order of original
appointment in the service,” so
that those who were Seon’
more recently must be laid
before previously appointed.
Disabled veterans as a group
have preference in retention over
all others, while non.disabled vet-
erans have preference in retention
over non-veterans, As between
themselves, however, the lay-off of
members of @ group must be made

Under the CIO plan, those re-

pointment does not count in de-
termining the date of original
appointment, Where two or more |i.
persons are appointed from the
same eligible list on the same day,
their seniority for purposes of lay- | |

Prior service under @ similar

service of a civil division of the
State, must be counted In deter-
mining the date of original ap-
intment, Thus, an employee may
add his Board of Education service
as a draftsman to his city service
as a draftsman in determining his
date of original appointment. Prior
Transit Commission service may
similarly be added to city service.
But State and city service may not | Ofor
be added together for seniority
purposes,
Only continuous service may be
counted in determining seniority
and the date of original appoint-
ment. A resignation is a separation
from a@ break in continuous ser-
vice, 8o that seniority counts only

: The
NYC Employee
IT MAY NOT BE altogether un-
ommon for the boss to say a good
word about the staff, but it cer-
Gainly is unusual for the staff to
foot the horn for the boss,
Last week the examining staff
ef the NYC Civil Service Commin-
sion, through Samuel H, Galston,
director of examinations, spoke uj
on bebalf of President James
Watson and Commissioners Paul
P, Brennan and Paul Fino,
“The policies of the Commission
have been conscientious and sen-
sible,” the kind words went, ‘The
three Commissioners operate as a
team. They don't make any com-
mitments or decisions except as &
team. They meet three times a
‘week and they clean up their work
expeditiously.”
On Mondays and Wednesday the
Commission meetings deal with
hearings on candidates. On Tues-
days resolutions on other matters
are acted on. Usually the hearings
are on cases where a candidate's
eharacter fs up for inquiry. Shall
he be admitted to an exam? Shall
he be qualified as an eligibic, ro he
may be appointed?
The character enses take &
great deal of time. Previously one
Commissioner handled them, His
recommendations then were acted
on by the full Commission, That
had been the policy for years. It
turned out to be an unfortunate
ene for the previous membership
of the commission, because leni-
ency was exercised to a great ex-
tent and adverse criticism follow-
ed, including thrusts for not, being
strict enough in impersonation
eases,
‘The present membership ts ex-
tremely sensitive on the imperson-
ation score, It has piacards all
ever the application bureau, and
elsewhere in the Commission of-
ficen, warning of the dire con-
sequences of impersonation, which
refers to @ person taking a test
im the guise of the real candidate,
All attempts at impersonation
have been discovered in the m:
eal-physical bureau of the v4
mission, where the fingerprint
“staff” ts located. This was true
under the previous administration,
too, Candidates are fingerprinted
fat all stages of an exam, and it is
deemed impossible for a faker to
best the game. But sometimes, be-
enuse of the heavy work load, ft
takes quite a spell before the Im-
Personation is discovered, Now,
when discovered, the consequences
are uniform The candidate |» dis-
qualified and the Mayor's office |p
notified. Now, as in the recent
past, impersonators also may ex-

THE COMMISSION jn well sat-
isfled with the way the Clork,
Grade 2, pool was conducted under
the general supervision of Secre-
‘ank A. Shacfer, Sylyester
G, Connolly, director of the certi-
fication bureau, was the adminis-
trator,
Dr, Shaefer, as secretary of the
NYC Civil Service Commission,
had advised department heads to
distribute circulars at the recent
Clerk, Grade 2 hiring pool to en-
courage eligibles to select their
Commissioner's particular depart-
ments,
“Department representatives,”
wrote Dr, Shaefer, “are urged to
bring to the 1 written material
describing job assignments which
eligibles can read while waiting
for appointment,”
Some departments, like Sanita-
tion, find it hard to stir up en-~
thusiasm among Clerk eligibles.
But that department points out |
that working conditions there are
excellent. Efforts to obtain the |
addresses, so eligibles could be
solicited, met with refusal. The
Commission has a rule against
giving out the addresses. They do
not appear on the eligible lists ax
fasued by the Commission for pub-
lication, but do appear on the
certifications. But by certification
time it's too late for circulariza-
tion by mail.
SPEAKING glowingly of the |
City's schedule of exams running
through the first half of next year,
announced in The LEADER last
week, he said that the Commission
hoped to abide fairly closely by
that Hsting, but that there are
bound to be changes, required by
exigencies. If necessity arises for
adding important exams, he said,
they will be added.
PROGRESS REPORTS will be
fnsued by the Commission in the
modern manner, beginning March
1, They deal with the status of
exams.

committee, az active organizers
While the Commission had been
issuing progress reports, they'd |
been of the antiquated style. In-
dividual units reported on what
they'd done, without consolidation,
and In a way that might be in-
formative to the Commission but
scarcely of help to candidates,
Also, the reports were not recent
enough. The actual status often
advanced beyond what the report
showed.
Now monthly reports will be in
columnar form, issued from the
central office, consolidated alpha-
betically by title and bear a state-
ment of the standing of the text,
The report, will be written by Tom
Prey, administrative assistant to
Mr, Galston, on the basis of col-
lation practiced by Joe Zweig,
head of the examining service bu-
reau,
Nice going, but it’s about time.
INSTRUCTORS and professors
In the City’s four colleges have
had to seck legisintive aid to have
their salaries increased. Assem!
man Lewis W. Ollife of King
County has introduced « bill in
Albany to correct what he calle
the unfair and discriminatory sit
uation. He complains that college
instructors ¢ 0 a year les

Board of Higher Education.
There used to be equality of
trentment, ag between the two
groups, but last spring, when a
$250 raise was granted to high
school teachers, and 30 per cent to
supervisors, the college group got
nothing.
‘The bill proposes that equality
be restored,
A CITYWIDE organization of
veterans has been formed to con-
test the ruling of Corporation
Counsel John P. McGrath which
interprets base military pay.
Where the pay differential is im-
portant, as in pension payments
by the City for the period of war
service, and for the diminishing
number of veterans entitled to the
difference between City pay and
armed forces pay, the interpreta-
tlon would nearly always mean

we suppose it would, But we do know that some retired em-
ployees are suffering real hardship, and the power to do
anything about it seems to be lacking. A local government
or school board may budget for reimbursement of present

snare, on the ground that this would be a government
