‘Upgrading’ Plan Proposed for Many

Federal Employees in New York Area

Upgrading of employees,
transfers from one depart-
ment another, new uses of

employee skills these are |
definitely in the wind for
farge numbers of Federal
workers in the New York
area,

All Federal agencies in New
ork State which employ more
an 300 people are being asked to
Feview their operation from the |

andpoint of full wilization of
ir personnel. Mrs, Anna Rosen- |

berg, Regional Director of ‘the
War Manpower Commission, has
arranged for the study with Mr.
James E. Rossell, Regional Direc-
tor for the Second United States
Civil Service Region.

The survey, Mrs. Rosenberg said,
will embrace 26 factors relating to
the full utilization of workers, and
is designed to assist agency heads
in determining whether their em-
ployees are being used to their full
abilities and capacities in their
jobs, As a result of the survey,
agency heads may upgrade work-
ers who are not being used

their highest skills, arrange for
the transfer of workers within the
agency in the interest of greater
efficiency, or arrange transfers of
workers from their own agency to
another which can better use their
skills,

Mrs, Rosenberg said that the
survey is part of a continuing pro-
gram for utilization of personnel
by Federal agencies in this area,
which has been in progress since
1942 under the War Manpower
Commission and the Civil Service
Commission,

Explaining the purposes of the

program, she said:

“Pull utilization of the abilities
and skills of a war worker is as
important as recruitment of the
worker in the first place, and the
War Manpower Commission has,
from the beginning, made man-
power utilization a major part of
its program. This applies to Fed-
eral agencies as well as to private
industry, and we feel that an ef-
fective job has been done in in-
creasing the effectiveness and
productivity of workers in both
fields,

“However, the problem of man-

{Power utilization fs one that ree
quires continuing attention, be-
| cause of such factors as the de-
velopment of new programs with~
in a plant or agency, and the
| continuous turnover in personnel,
| For these reasons the program is
& permanent one,

“It is especially important right
now, with the supply of labor for
war production as limited as it is,
that both private industry and
government scrutinize closely the
work of every employee, and try
to have it used as advantageously
for the war effort as possible.”

NYC Promotion Setup
Faces Overhauling

How to decide whether

promotion examinations for

New York City employees shall be held on a departmental
or City-wide basis was the problem considered by the Munici+

pal Civil Service Commission
‘The determination as to whether
employees will have to compete
with all others in the City, or just
with those in their department,
depends on the following factors,
according to the Commission:

General Promotions

General promotion examina-
tions should be held for positions
in the lower salary bracket cate-
gory or in the prevailing rate
category where the positions oc-
sur in several departments and
where the duties are of a sub-
stantial identity in character and
do not require any particularly
extended period of in-service
training as between departments

gineman; Plumber, etc,

General promotion examina-
tions should not be held for po-
sitions in the higher salary brack~
ets where, by virtue of long ex-
perience or work in a particular
department, duties tend to become
unique in that particular depart-
ment and where the employee's
particular value to a ¢ partment
is the fact that he is a depository
of special departmental practices,
customs and procedures,

When a general promotion ex-
amination is given, it will be
opened to employees in ti..se de«
partments where eligibles ary
actually employed and where there
| are, or are expected, vacancies to
| which those passing the examina-
tion may be promoted during the
life of the lst.

The Civil Service Commission
has not, to date, acted on the
plea of many NYC employees that
® means be worked out to pro-
vide for promotion-without-tests,

Here's the Story of U.S. Civil Ela Coanlalons s
Measure Dealing With Pay Raises and Overtime

WASHINGTON — The
U. 8. Civil Service Commis-
sion has at last given Con-
gress the omnibus bill which
would reorganize the Fed-
eral salary system. But it
does not ask for a basic pay
raise.

Disappointment was expressed
by Federal employee union heads
and others over the failure of the
Commission to specify a raise in
the bill, The message accompany-
ing the recommended bill, how-
ever, pointed out the President's
desire to give U. 5, workers a basic
raise as expressed in his last Bud-
get Message.

Union heads of American Fed-
eration of Government Employees
and United Pederal Workers of
America announced they would
ask to have the proposed bill
amended to Include a 25 per cent
raise, It is known that Sen.
Downey, chairman of the Senate
Civil Service Committee, will sup-
port this amendment and ‘that

ik, head of the House
Committee, will support some basic
raise. He has not said exactly how
much he would ask.

Vinson Objected

Reason behina the Commission's
failure to ask for a specific raise
in its original bill is known to be
Judge Vinson's objections, As
stabilization director he advised
iad Commission against asking for
it.

Actually, what the whole thing
amounted to was to let Congress
itself take the initiative in putting
a raise in the bill, which is what

will be done. At this early stage,
chances of passage seem bright—
at least before next summer, when
the present overtime bill

Here is what the Civil Service
Commission's bill will do:

—It will provide overtime pay
for work in excess of 40 hours
& week, permanently.

‘The bill will change the pres-

ent method of computing such
overtime pay. Under the present
system, overtime is paid for at a
rate of 21.67 per cent. This {s
about time and one-twelfth. Un-
der the bill, overtime would be
computed on a true time and one-
half basis, so that for working 20
per cent more time, an employee
will receive a 30 per cent increase
in “take-home” pay, rather than
the 21.67 per cent which Is now
being paid.

Overtime Pay Tapered Off

However, this will apply only to
employees receiving basic salaries
at a rate of $3800 per annum or
Jess. Overtime pay is tapered off
as the salary increases, For the
$6,500 and higher levels pay for
overtime would be the same as
now.

It is provided in the proposed
measure that for irregular or
occasional overtime work, heads
of agencies may grant per annum

employees compensatory time off
from duty.

—The bill would establish a
basic rate of pay for night
work which is 10 per cent above
the basic rate of pay for the same
work during daytime.

'—Provision is made for extra
pay for work on holidays at
& rate of ane and one-half times
the regular rate of pay. It is stip-
ulated, however, that extra pay for
holiday work shal) be granted only
after the present war or at such
earlier time as the Congress or the
President may designate,

Classification Changes

—It would authorize the Civil
Service Commission to estab-
lish classifications within grades
based on duties and responsibili-
Ues for which the Commission
would establish a minimum or hir-
ing rate which could be above the
minimum rate of the grade. In
the classes affected this would ap-
ply to employees already in the
services as well as to new ap-
pointees, At present, all new ap-
pointments must be made at the
minimum rate of the grade in
which the position is classified.

—The waiting periods for peri-
odic within-grade promotions
would be shortened from 18 to 12

months in the Jower grades and
from 30 to 18 months In the up-
per brackets, Also it would make
these raises effective at the begin-
ning of the next month after the
conditions have been met rather
than having to wait until the start
of the next quarter,

—With reference to the existing
provision for one additional
within-grade salary increase with-
in any one of the waiting periods
for especially meritorious service,
the bill would place upon the Civil
Service Commission the responsi-
bility to promulgate standards for
such increases covering superior
accorralishment of work by em-
ployees, Such increases would be
made initially by heads of agencies
to whom tt Commission delegates
appropriate authority under con-
trolling regulations and standards.
They would be subject to post-
audit by the Commission, which
would withdraw or suspend such
delegated authority whenever the

resu'ts of the post-audits war-|to $5,

ranted such action.

All efforts on passage of other
minor Federal employee bills will
be concentrated on passage of this
measure. It was known last Fall

that the Commission had such a
bill in the mill but numerous de-
Jays held it up. Latest delay was
by Judge Vinson.

Quit Work at 70? Perish
Thought, Say Old-Timers

Who says a man’s years
are three-score and ten?

Who says his years of
work are over at 65?

Not in a world at war. Ask the
90 oldsters who are in there pitch-
ing strong at the War Department
Office of Dependency Benefits.

Retire at 65? Perish the thought,
So say these men and women who
range in age from 66 to 79. Some
of them had retired, it is true, be-
fore the war began, and were
looking forward to the peaceful
pursuits to which their ripe years
entitled them. But they heard
the plea for additional employees
at the huge war agency which ad-
ministers family allowances and
allotments-of-pay for more than
1444 million dependents of Army
men and women. And they an-
swered the call with alacrity.

Among them are 8 who are be-
tween 75 and 80 years of age; 31
who are between 70 and 75, and
51 who are between 65 and 70.

week, on two shifts, and on all
holidays except Christmas, with
cheerful regularity, according to
Brig Gen. H. N. Gilbert, USA, Di-
rector of the ODB.

Moreover, one oldster, Owens
C. Quarterman, 68, has received a
special commendation from Gen-
eral Gilbert, for a perfect attend-
ance record. Mr. Quaterman halls
from Marion County, Florida, and
is a former advertising man. He
is cmployed in the Supply Branch,
He has been with the ODB for a
year and eight months. He lives
at 280 Park Avenue, Orange, N, J.

He'll Hit 80

Topping the group in point of
years is William Alfred Wasson
who is anticipating his 80th birth-
day this year. He is a reader in
the Communications Branch, and
he'll lay you dollars to doughnuts
you could never pick him out of
the crowd of 9,000 employees as
an oldster, There's nothing of
the “last leaf,” about Mr. Was-
son; no stooped little man with
lined face and bald head. He
stands well over six feet, holds
himself straight as a rod and looks
and acts like a man in his 50's. He
attributes his youthful appear-
ance, at least in part, to the fact
a he works hard—and likes his
Job.

“Why, it's made me twenty
years younger,” he says. “I'm do-
ing something to help win this
war--and I fool eyerybody about
by age.”

Mr. Wasson has another distinc-
tion; he is the grandfather of a
soldier and the great-grandfather
of @ soldier's baby for whom the
ODB administers a family allow-
ance. So he has yery intimate
family reasons for recognizing the
importance of to the
morale of the Army and the fam-
ilies of Army men and women. His
grandson, Corporal Cutler Was-
son Tyler, formerly with the Pru-
dential Insurance Company of
America, is now fighting with the
Fifth Army in Italy,

Mr. Wasson make: his home at
76 North Ninth Street, Newark,

Mrs. Henrietta Vanderzee can
count more summers than any
other woman employee of “the
huge war agency, if she wants to
—and she does! She answers
cheerfully to the age of 74, She
knows you won't believe her, for
she, like Mr, Wasson, carries her
years lightly,

Mrs. Vanderzee has the respon-
sible task of maintaining records
in the Supply Branch. A resident
of Newatk for 35 years, Mrs, Van-
derzee makes her home at 61 Hill-
side Avenue,

The group includes many others
with interesting and widely varied
backgrounds. School teacher, in-
surance agent, club manager,
clothes designer, housewife, labor-
er, social secretary, tobacconist—

all concentrating now, on the one

War Positions

The U. S. Civil Service Commis-
sion announced last week an ur-
gent need for workers at West
Coast Navy Yards and Naval Air

Pacific places a heavy workload
upon naval establishments en-
gaged in the construction, re-
pair and overhaul of all types of
naval vessels and combat planes.
Battle-damage, routine overhaul
and regular servicing of more
ships and more planes necessarily
means more workers are needed
for this vital war work. The need
for skilled mechanics is critical
at such naval establishments as
Hunters Point Naval Drydocks,
San Prancisco, Calif.; Mare Island
Navy Yard, Vallejo, Calif.; Puget
Sound Navy Yard, Bremerton,
Wash., and the U. S. Naval Air
Stations at Alameda, Calif, and
Seattle, Wash,

Yards include the following:
Coppersmith, Electrician, Helper
Electrician, Helper Machinist,
Helper Sheetmetal Worker, Ma-
chinist Inside, Machinist Outside,
Radio Mechanic, Rigger; Sheet-
metal Worker and Shipfitter.
Mechanics needed for the Naval
Air Stations are: Aircraft Me-
chanic General, Aircraf: Mechanic
Motor, Aviation Electrician, and
Aviation Metalsmith,

Prospects of Higher Pay
For Public Employees

HAT are the prospects of higher pay for public
W employees?
At this point, it looks as though——

1. New York State employees will get a raise;

2. Federal employees will get a raise;

3. New York City employees won't.

Both President Roosevelt and Governor Dewey have
expressed, in clear form, their views that the pay of em-
ployees in their jurisdictions must be increased. The
United States Civil Service Commission last week gave to
Congress its bill providing for higher overtime pay and
upward changes in pay schedules. This bill isn’t as good,
from the employees’ viewpoint, as had been expected. But
it is at least a start. And the best information in Wash-
ington indicates that Federal employees will be awarded
improved salary standards at this session of Congress.

In his first message to the State Legislature, Governor
Dewey made proposals for increases in the pay of State

Merit Man

employes which were widely applauded. The proposals
have since been incorporated into bills, and favorable action
is anticipated,

But what of New York City employees? Mayor Fiorello

LaGuardia has been curiously mum on the subject. With
the exception of inadequate war-time bonuses, they have
had nothing to compensate for the spiraling war-time cost-
of-living structure.

Only patrolmen and firemen, after a bitter struggle,
received fairly “decent” bonuses.

Almost all employee organizations in the City have
asked that, at the very least, the bonuses be made perma-
nent. Two borough presidents—Edgar Nathan of Man-
hattan and John Cashmore of Brooklyn—have endorsed the
permanent-bonus plan, But so far nothing has come of it.
As a matter of fact, new employees entering the City serv-
ice often don’t even get the small bonus—they’re expected
to start at pre-war salaries. i

_Employees of New York City have absorbed a lot of
additional duties, to make up for their colleagues who have
Jeft for the armed forces, The financial situation of the
City is apparently excellent. As Mayor LaGuardia goes
into his “budget retreat” he should take all these factors
into consideration. He should consider, too, that the Lit-
tle Steel Formula has been far from reached in New York
City’s public employee pay schedule And
formula doesn’t approach the official cost-of.

POLICE CALLS
Police Chiefs Oppose Police Unions

The question of unionism in the Police Department is a “hot*
issue in police circles again. The Uniformed Firemen's Associati
has long been a part of the American Federation of Labor; UF.
officials carry big weight in labor circles. The Patrolmen’s Benevo~
Jent Association, however, is independent, And, some say, that when
the cops need public support, that starts them off with a handicap.
‘They have to approach labor circles as outsiders and plead for help.

What brings the matter to the; ——— WARMERS oo
surface is a statement by an APL] them. First the fact that a “prey.
international union (APSCME) | alent majority” of the authorities

which raps the International Po-
lee Chiefs Association for their
recent report on “Police Unions
and Other Police Organizations.”

The Chiefs’ bulletin summarized
the situation in a report which
the employee journal describes as,
“anti-union .., full of half truths,
and a definitely and outright
false descriptions.”

What the Chiefs Said

Keynote of the Chiefs’ report
was: “The issue of police unions
has come increasingly into focus
during the past few months.
Where the question has been
passed upon by jurists, corpora~
tion counsels and city bodies, the
prevalent majority opinion ap-
pears to be that police unions, af-
filiated with trade labor organiza-
tions are: 1. contrary to the basic
nature of police duties; 2, power-
less to engage in collective bar-
gaining or benefit from the closed
shop, check-off system or strike
privileges; and 3, state and muni-
cipal government are vested with
constitutional authority to adopt
& policy of prohibiting public em-
ployees from affiliating with such
organizations.”

The Answers

Taking the three points, the em-

ployee organ nroceeded to answer

cited had ruled against the police
unions was questioned. “Why &
policeman cannot work to improve
his economic status through @
trade-labor organization and at
the same time attend to his duties
is not explained by the Police
Chiefs," added the union.

‘The second conclusion, that po~
lice unions cannot engage in Cob
lective bargaining is “ridiculous,
it was added, Unions bargain
continually and successfully with
governmental agencies, They have 4
never asked for a check-off sys- 7
tem. favoring voluntary payment
from public employees. Rules
the AFL prohibit police uniong
from using the strike weapon, _

The statement that governmen~
tal units have authority to adopt
@ policy prohibiting public em-
ployees from affiliating with labor
unions is dismissed with the query:
“We can only ask which constitu.
tion was consulted, Such author-
ity is not found in any copy of
the Constitution of the United
States of America ever read by
any Federation officer or head-
quarters staff member." \

’ Legislation
NEW YORK STATE civil government is subject to swift change
* at the hands of lawmakers or by executive action. The jarring ef-
fect on State rs of some changes inspired by new ideas and
# new laws must be absorbed in the interest of smoothness of opera-
tion. It is an important function of the Employees’ Association to
safeguard the workers from impacts on the merit system under all
» circumstances,
Reorganization of the State Labor Department has brought prob-
Jems of administration. The Condon bill passed by
“ the Legislature, sets aside respect for senlority rights for civil service
employees, This is not a sound means of upbuilding employee morale.
» This legisiation should be promptly amended to protect all workers
who have served faithfully in the conduct of this great department.
‘The Association will offer such an amendment, We are in a war
* and emotions run high, but the war will pass, It is vital that we
Plan for improvement in the post-war period, but it is just as vital

such as the merit system and the laws and rules which permit that
ystem to operate for the good of all citizens,

School of Industrial, Labor Relations
u Aside from specific measures which are part of the Association's
program and which are receiving the attention of officers, commit-
tees and counsel, the proposal for a school of industrial and labor
“relations at Cornell University, the first of its kind In the United
States, is of interest to State employees as well as workers every-
where. Four-year courses and short courses will be sponsored. If
plans go through, sessions will be in progress by the coming Summer.
Out of this school and others like it should come rational labor or-
# ganization to emancipate workers from the waste and error incident
in many types of present-day labor organization. The type of organ-
fzation perfected by our own successful Association will challenge the
‘attention of progressive teachers and leaders in education relating
to labor and industry.
While the Legisiature apparently expects to approve the anti-
* discrimination labor bill, there is no present portent of an uprising
against the Downey-Sherman proposal, (the old Hampton-Devany
bill), which is distinctly discriminatory. In this case, thousands
“ of youths born too late to serve in the present war, sons and daugh-
ters of gold-star mothers, and sons, brothers and sisters of veterans,

Opposes Condon
Bill Provisions

ALBANY—The Association of
State Civil Service Employees has
been opposed to certain provisions
of the Condon bill (Senate Int.
510) which, according to Clifford
C, Shoro, president of the organi-
zation, violate the merit system by
nullifying the seniority rule in
layoffs.

objectionable provisions of the

takes the position that Section 31
was designed to lay down uniform
procedures for just such reorgan-
izations as the present one, and
that to nullify that law for this
particular reorganization was im-
proper.

A SPECIAL-SECTION OF THE CIVIL SERVICE LEADER
AMERICA'S LARGEST WEEKLY FOR PUBLIC EMPLOYEES

DEVOTED TO THE ACTIVITIES OF ALL COMMUNITIES, AND TO PLANS, PROGRAMS AND TECH-
NIQUES OF OFFICIALS, EXECUTIVES, ADMINISTRATORS AND PERSONNEL IN ALL PUBLIC AGENCIES

NewYork City's ‘Mechanical Clerks’

By JEROME YALE

FISCAL operations of New
York City are only second to
those of the Federal Govern-
ment, The annual budget totals
about $700,000,000, and the em-
ployees number over 150,000. The
tremendous amount of auditing
and accounting is speeded up
through use of mechanical ap-
paratus, according to the Rem-
ington-Rand Company.

One of the bigger jobs is the
Real Estate Tax Accounting. How
that is handled is described by
the company;

Back in 1926 when William
Reid, City Collector, started the
modernization and mechaniza-
tion program of the Tax Office,
the first modern machines that
were adopted were Remington.
Rand Tabulating Machines. The
tremendous task of proving tax
extensions, preparing tax bills,
and accounting for tax collec-
tions of the largest city in the
world—a city with over 825,000
Parcels of property, the vax on

which amounts to-approximately
$500,000,000 annually—is accom~-
plished quickly and efficiently
with Remington-Rand Tabulat-
ing Machines, In addition to
Real Estate Tax Accounting,
this task also includes the bill-
ing, accounting for, and collec-
tion of approximately hear
metered water accounts
432,303 frontage water pots
together with special assessment
tax billing and accounting.

Formerly by Hand

Prior to the Installation of this
equipment, the tax records were
kept largely by manual methods,
a system which did not provide
adequate control and which in-
evitably resulted in confusion,
error, and needless delay. Just
the preliminary job of hand sort-
ing thousands of counterfoils of
paid tax bills into Section, Block,
and Lot order placed too great
@ burden on the clerical staff
available. Now, all counterfoils
and stubs have been eliminated
and the huge sorting task is per-

was reached ,
impartial and exhaustive study
of the leading makes of account-
ing machines-was mace over a
period of several months. As a
result of this study, it was finally
determined that Remington-Rand
Tabulating Machines were best
adapted to the exacting require-
ments of the Tax Office, and these
machines were accordingly in-
stalled in all boroughs. The cur-
rent tax collection ratio of 92.5
per cent speaks for itself as to
the efficiency of the tax ac-
counting system.

Bach borough collects real
estate taxes, water charges and
assessments on property within
the Borough; also collection is
made of special taxes (Sales Tax,
Business Tax, Utility Tax, etc.)
and miscellaneous fees. The Bor-
ough of Manhattan enters on
cash sheets the city revenue col-
lections from duplicate bills and

bank deposit slips received from
the others boroughs.

Mail Payments Procedure
All tax bills are mailed to tax~-
‘payers before the due date, fol-
lo the mechanical address-
of bills for window envelope

use.

1, Checks, bills and return en-
velopes are pinned together and
payments verified.

2. Acceptable payments are

by their various classi-
fications and grouped into foot-
ings of not more than fifty items

each,

3, Real estate, water assess-
ment and all other payments,
except special taxes are given
identifying numbers which ap-
pear on checks and envelopes.
Special tax payments are num-
bered by a code representing the
first and last numbers of the
bills which are paid.

4. Checks are separated from
bills of all groups, both are on
in duplicate, and balanced tot:
are entered on control a

5. Bills are receipted and
amounts recorded on cash regis-
tering equipment which also ac-
cumulates totals. These totals are

then recorded on control sheets
by footings, Line records in
Manhattan

Punch Operator from

bills and bill listings (see Item
4) are retained by Mail Line for
thelr records,

7. Cash sheet entries are made
from some media by Accounting
Machine Division. Totals are en-
tered on the Control shget, which
Js summarized at end of day.

8. Bank deposit is made up
when a proof has been estab-
lished between the summaries of
bill totals, check listing totals,
and cash sheet totals by the Ac~
achine Division and
the Mail Line,

9. Receipted bills for real es-
tate, water, and assessments
which have been paid by or-
dinary checks are

Central Islip

A SPECIAL meeting of the As-
sociation of State Civil Service
employees was held in the Lounge
Room, Robbins Hall, on February
14th, presided by Chapter Presi-
dent We Wallace McCrone. Mr.
McCrone introduced John FP, et
ers, a State Association vice-
president, who said pending leg-
islation was being given the
most careful attention by the
Executive Board at Albany. He
encouraged employees to take
their problems to their local chap-
ter executive committee... . Mr.
E. Palcie, auditor, from Albany,
‘was introduced, . . . At this point,
Mr, McCrone took occasion to
praise the work of the various
committees by introducing Frank
Walsh of the Executive commit-
tee, Michael Murphy of the Pub-
icity committee, and James Con-
nolly of the Grievance committee,
« « « William F, McDonough, Ex-
ecutive Representative of the As-
sociation, spoke at length on divers
topics of interest to employees.
‘The pension system and the}
Hampton-Devany preference bill |
were touched upon. In speaking |
of the Peld-Hamilton law, he de-|
seribed it as the finest labor law|
for public employees in this na-
tion and, perhaps, in the world.
Of the many things he touched up-
on, the one to interest employees
most should be his reference to
the meal taken at the hospital by
those living off the grounds, If
the Director of the hospital certi-
fies an employee as being obliged
to eat the meal at the institution, |
then the cash for this meal, he|
says, is tax exempt, At the con-|
clusion of his talk, a rising vote
of thanks was given Mr. McDon-
ough, , . . The drawing for cash
prizes was then taken up, the $25
going to M, L. Pless of group 86,
the $15 to Frank W, Scott of Cen-
tral Islip, and $10 to Patrolman
John Donaghy of the hospital
police. . To all who co-oper-
ated in making the raffle such
@ grand success, the officers of

Discrimination
Bill Includes
Govt. Workers

Municipal employees are in-
cluded under the provisions of the
Ives Anti-Discrimination Bill now
before the State Legislature.

Organizations of municipal em-
ployees had been concerned over
wording of the proposed act which
excluded “corporations not organ-
ized for private profit.” Some in-
terpretations of that section of
the bill held it to mean govern-
mental units,

In a reply to Ellis Ranen, in-
ternational representative of the
American Federation of State,
County and Municipal Employees,
Assemblyman Irving M. Ives,
sponsor of the bill, wrote:

.». in 80 far as the Commis-
sion’s (Temporary State Commis-
sion Against Discrimination)
membership has been concerned,
there has never been any doubt as
to the inclusion of municipal em-
ployees within the construction of
the bill.”

WASHINGTON—An increasing

physically handicapped persons
who have taken government jobs
is shown in recent figures gath-

50,888 persons wtih physical de-
fects were employed in Govern-
ment agencies. Among the types

Members of the armed forces are

Suspensions of Pensions

If YOU EXPECT, after your

Retirement from State service, to

Supplement your pension by ‘ob:
taining other public employment,

you are due for a disappoint-
ment, there

change in the cable provi-

appli
sions of law by the time you
retire.

With the exception of certain
enumerated positions, there is no

civil service position in the serv-
ice of the State, county, city, town

or village that you can accept
without thereby inviting a suspen-

sion of your pension.
Bection 32 of the Civil Service
Law, which contains the suspen-

sion provisions and the specific
Positions excepted, provides so far
@s pertinent that “if any person

Subsequent to his retirement from

the civil service of the State...
shall accept any office, position

or employment ... to which any

salary or emolument is attached |
in the civil service of the State or |
of any municipal corporation or

Political subdivision of the State,
except the of inspector of
¢lection, jury duty, poll clerk or
ballot clerk under the election
law, or except the office of notary
public or commissioner of deeds,
or an elective public office, any
Pension or annuity awarded or
allotted to him upon retirement,
and payable by the State .. . or
out of any fund established by or
pursuant to law, shall be sus-
pended during such service or em-
ployme>t and while such person |
is receiving any salary or emolu-
ment therefor except reimburse-
Ment for traveling expenses.”

Applicable to Temporary
Employment
‘The Attorney-General, in an in-

formal opinion, has advised that
former State prison or hospital
employees retired on a pension

would have their pensions sus-

Pended under the quoted section

of the Civil Service Law, if they
took employment with the Village
of Dannemora, even though such

employment be temporary. Said

the Attorney-General:

“Tnasmuch as there is no am-|
it is my
opinion that pensioners may not

without subjecting themselves to
the suspension of pension rights
provided in this section, Relief
from the effects of this section

Over-all, they hold 11.9 per

The study covered.in the report

Substantial gains were also
