NYC Employees
An exodus of employees to pri-
vate jobs will probably follow any
further attempts by Mayor La-
Guardia to continue through with
his threats to dismiss NYC work-}
ers who are holding other jobs in|
their spare time.
When investigators of the De-
Partment of Investigation looked
over the books of the Railway Ex-
reas Agency, they found, among
others, many Parks Department
employees who were working on
the trucks after regular working
hours for the City, Some of these
employees have openly said that
they consider their jobs with the
express company far more im-
portant to the war effort than
their jobs around the municipal
Parks. If faced with the necessity
of giving up one job, they'll let
the City job go.

‘ALBANY, — Although the chances of a State em-

NY Postal Clerks
In Battle With
National Office
A revolt among members of
Local 10, N, ¥. Federation of Post |
Office Clerks (AFL), is expected
to flare up at the national con-
vention of the organization which
will be held in Indianapolis on
duly 24, .
‘This marks the second time in|
a year that the New York local
of postal union has engaged in a
major battle with its own parent
body. The first case occurred a
year, ago, when a dispute between
the New York local and the inter-
national of the Railway Mail em-
ployees hauled off in a fracas that
reached the courts.
What It’s About
At the end of May, the national
office of the FPOC conducted
a national referendum. Instead
of gathering for a vote, the offi-
cials of Local 10 decided to dis-
tribute ballots to the delegates,
who handed them out to paid-up |
members, That, complained some
of the members, wasn't according
to the constitution of the organi-
zation, which calls for regular

Investigation Commissioner Probes
NYC Employee Service Rating Methods
By FRANCIS KELLY
Another survey of City employees is bein;
the NYC Department of Investigations to chee!
made by
the ideas
of municipal employees on service ratings, lay-offs, promo-
tions and increases,
The LEADER presents here for
the first time the whole story be-
hind this development.
Meetings of important City off-
cials have been called to go over
the results of the survey.
The present system under
which NYC employees are given
annual service ratings may be
due for a complete change in the
near future,
Much Dissatisfaction
‘There has been dissatisfaction
both from the employees and the
department heads. Employees
feel, in many cases, that their
rating, which counts towards
their grade on a promotion exam-
ination, depends largely on their
personal relationship with the su-
pervisor who rates them.
Department officials feel that
the present system is merely a
farce to fit in with State laws
which require annual service
rating reports. One department
head says; “I have over 400 em-
ployees in my bureau. Last year
only 2 recelyed unsatisfactory
ratings, the rest were all ‘good’
or ‘excellent.’ That certainly does
not present a clear picture.
“Then, the Civil Service Com-
mission overrode the departmen-
tal rating in these two cases and
gave the employees ‘satisfactory’
ratings.”
A private meeting was held on
June 13, when department and|
civil service officials were called
together at 125 Worth Street.
Apother meeting has been called
for Tuesday, July 11, at 8 p.m.
Notices went out from the office

of Sicily hadn't been a New York
City cop before he went into the
Navy with the reserve back in
4940, he probably wouldn't be
@round today.
As a cop, he developed the
habit of carrying a .32 in a shoul-
der holster whenever he wore
“civvies.” The habit was so strong
that he couldn't break it, and he
fhad a pistol over his heart when
the was directing operation of his
eraft in the invasion.
Nayal doctors said that if it
hadn't been for the gun, which
deflected a 20 mm. projectile,
which struck his left arm, he
would have been killed. As it was,
fhe remained at his post though
wounded and saw to it that the
ship discharged its cargo of sol-
diers, fought off land and air at-
tacks, and finally withdrew from
the beachhead.

Some time later, in August,
1984, the ship was sunk and every
member of the crew wounded,
Since then, the lieutenant has

questions which were put to em~-
ployees, They follow:
1, Is your supervisor well quali-
fied to judge the quality and value
of your work?
2. Was your supervisor's most
recent service rating report of
your work fair?
3. On the basis of the report
made by your supervisor, should
the , Civil Service Commission
havé granted you more numerical
credit?
4. Are appeals to the Civil Serv-
fee Commission considered and
decided upon fairly?
6, Would your supervisor “take
it out on you” if you appealed a
rating?
7, Should an employee of ex-
ceptional ability be given more
than a “satisfactory” rating (one
percent) whether or not he has
had an opportunity on his par-
ticular job to prove that ability?
8, Should service ratings be the
basis for:
Privileges, such as better
assignments, vacation periods,
transfer to better Job locations
Bridge Tenders
To Have Regular
Work-Week
The bridge tenders and opera-
tors. in the NYC Department of
Public Works, who have almost
forgotten what a day off looks
like, will soon have the benefits
of a regular work-week.
After long negotiation between
Cor loner Irving V. A. Huie
and the American Federation of
Labor local in the department,
permission was granted to increase
the staff to allow regular working
hours. Bridge tenders will be pro-
moted to Operator, and 20 more
bridge tenders will be hired at
$1,440 nm year.
Asst. Engineers
Earn More Than
Full Engineers
Some assistant civil engincers
in the NYC Department of Build-
ing and Housing are earning
higher salaries than full civil en-
gineers in the same office.
The civil engineers have asked
Commissioner William Wilson to
see that their pay is boosted above
the assistants.
The Department explains that
the situation is quite fair. It
seems that back in 1926-1927 and
1928, titles in the departments
were shifted around, Some men
didn't have engineering degrees,
but were holding responsible jobs,
and had long practical experience,
so they were made into assistant
civil engineers,
checks than some men with the
C.E, after their names,

g) Examination, seniority and

In addition, the employee was
asked to supply information os
to: age, marital status, education,
time in civil service, salary, and
the last service rating received.
Suggestions
Among the suggestions made at
the meetings of City officials:
—To abolish the system of serv-
ice ratings entirely and give
the same credit to all employees
who complete a year of service.
(This, some say, might be con-
trary to present State laws.)
‘That service ratings be made
confidential, to allow super-
visors full freedom in grading
their workers, At present the em-
ployee has the right to review his
rating sheet. (This, if adopted,
would raise a furore among mu-
nicipal employees.)
—That an attempt be made to
develop superior supervisors
who would have the ability and
the interest in rating their staff
according to their work on the
job, not because they are “regular
guys.”

the Board Estimate handed
out a ama cost of living bonus

ployees are paid out of City funds
so their increases was handed to

to sign waivers (signed by all City

Bad Doctrine Uttered
By Govt. Attorney
Ww: TAKE exception to an argument made by Joseph
M. Friedman, Justice Department attorney arguing
the Government's side in the Hatch Act case now
proceeding in Washington.
Friedman argued that nobody is compelled to work
for the Government. In effect, if you don’t like the con-
on ‘a work, nothing prevents you from getting the
ell out.
This is the same line of talk that used to be invoked
years ago in private industry when employees asked for
an improvement in their condition. The men would go
to the boss and request a raise. The boss would answer:
“You don’t have to work here. If you don’t like the way
we do things, you're free to leave any time.”
This benighted attitude was at bottom of much labor
strife in the history of this nation. It’s pathetic to hear
it mouthed at this late date by a representative of the
Government,
The LEADER has been against that section of the
Hatch Act which curtails the political activities of em-
ployees paid out of Federal funds. Nevertheless, we
believe that an argument can be made out for the act
without invoking so anachronistic an approach as that
of attorney Friedman.
. After all, if his argument is taken at face value, then
employees would never dare try to improve their pay,
their working conditions, or to change any imposition,
however onerous, which an official might wish to heap
upon their heads.
That doesn’t sound like good doctrine for free men
and women in the employ of a free nation.
Training Program Needed
For State Employees
OR some years now, Albany officials have been play-
ing around with the idea of instituting a training
program for State employees. Here and there, some-
thing interesting was done, but on the whole we have in
New York State no really effective plan of in-service
training.
Everybody admits that such a program is useful and
necessary, The State Civil Service Commission is known
to be interested in seeing a dynamic plan get under way.
Employees themselves would certainly be for it, because
their own chances for advancement would be improved
through training; moreover, proper training would enable
many of them to turn in a smoother, more efficient job.
All the necessary factors for putting a training pro-
gram into action are available, including some good pre-
liminary surveys by the Civil Service Commission.
Let’s do it! The coming

Food for Thought—and Worry—
Is This Problem Facing Serviceman-Cops
Old-timers in the N¥C Police Department remember the days
after World War I, when the veterans came back. Then, they recall),
the returning service men were greeted with open arms, and places
were made for men with disabilities ranging from 10 to 40 percent,
And in addition to finding a job on their return, the ex-soldiers who
had been partially disabled received veteran's preference which helped
them make their way up the promotional ladder,

The Two Probationary Men
‘The case of two probationary
patrolmen, both discharged from
the Army, gives them food for
thought—and worry.
By a strange coincidence, these
two members of the police force
found themselves in the same}
identical fix.
Walter J, Carlson and Frank J,
Murray were both on the Patrol-
man list when they went into the
Army. They both received medi-
cal discharges from the Army in
November 1943. They both were
appointed to the Police Depart-
ment in February 1944, after
passing departmental medical ex-
aminations,
Discharged for Asthma
Then, in the course of routine
investigations, the City Civil
Service Commission found that
they had both been discharged
from the Army because of asthma,

was ordered to dismiss them ef-
fective June 30, 1944,
That might have ended the
case, but Commissioner Ferdinand
Q. Morton, of the Civil Service
Commission, didn’t feel that they,
had been given a very good deal
by the City. His proposal is this:
That they apply to the Veterans
Administration for classification
as being entitled to veterans pref<
erence, Then the Commission
would be able to appoint them to
jobs which have heen declared
appropriate for men on the Police
eligible list—bridge guards, spe+
cial patrolmen, subway patrolmen,
ete—but that is still a lot less
than a job as a regular cop.
One interesting and important
factor in the cases of Carlson and
Murray is that no sign of asthma
had been found when they took
their civil service examinations,
There was nothing, in Carlson's
case, to indicate asthma until he
reached his Army camp in Loul+
siana. And it was so slight in
New York City that even physi-
cians couldn't find any trace of it
in examining him,
The Police Department in all
probability didn’t want to lose the
men, both of them fine, strapping
individuals with good records,
And there are yolces within the
department which say that the
Civil Service Commission is going
much too far in dismissing men
for so slight a cause—and it bodes
ill for the returning veterans,

The State
Employee
By CLIFFORD ¢, SHORO
President, The Association of
State Civil Service Employees
In writing “The State Employee” as « regular weekly feature of The
LEADER, Clifford C, Shoro discusses all and any matters of interes to
employees of the State of New York. He is veriting this column with
complete leeway to express his own views,
Rights of Returning Servicemen *
NEW YORK STATE, as an employer, has pledged itself by law
to re-employ those who left State jobs for the armed services. Of
course, every returning veteran his former job to be waiting
for him when he returns, If he does not elect to go back to his old
job, well and good; but the choice should be his. And, he should lose
hone of the advantages that may have become attached to his job
while he has been absent,
Citizen Responsibility
‘THIS IS only sound business. The fighting man {s not on a holi-
day. Citizen responsibility for the welfare of the people as a whole
transcends private duties and scorns petty technicalities. When the
citizen leaves the plow or the desk to defend national frontiers of
jhuman freedom or of land, he has an inherent right to return to the
plow or the desk when his defense task is ended. Of course, on @
National scale and with millions of people involved, there will be
situations where it may be difficult for the veteran to resume imme-
diately his exact former status throughout all of the industries of
the Nation, There is no situation which could arise, however, that
should bring economic loss to the defender of his country. The Fed-
eral Government must function to assure this,
‘These Are the Rights
‘THE ASSOCIATION sponsored, and has had the pleasure to see
enacted laws guaranteeing to the public employee of New York State
holding a permanent position, inducted into the military service, the
following broad rights:
1. He is deemed to be on leave of absence for the duration of
such military service.
2. He shall be reinstated to his former position if he makes ap-
plication for it within 60 days after termination of military duty.
3. He shall, upon reinstatement, receive the rate of pay he would
have been entitled to had he remained at his work.
4, He shall not be subject, directly or indirectly, to loss of any
time service, increment, efficiency rating, or any other right or priv-
ilege.
5, He shall not be prejudiced in any way with reference to pro-
motion, transfer, reinstatement or continuance in office,
6. Total service for retirement purposes shall include time on
military duty and he may pay his regular required contribution
while on military duty or within five years after reinstatement in
his position.
1. He may be appointed to a higher position while on military
leave, and if so appointed upon taking up the duties of such position
on his return, shall have all rights and privileges attaching to the
Position,
8. He has other supplementary safeguards as to his work status.
‘The State of New York has committed itself definitely as an em-
ployer to reemploy its workers called to armed endeavor. This is the
duty of every American employer.
The Association has committed itself definitely to assure that
the laws which it fostered on behalf of New York State civil service
workers who attain to the prestige of veterans of the war shall be
scrupulously observed, when the time for reemployment in State
service arises,
The assurance by industry, business and public jurisdictions of
reemployment of veterans is the best offset to unsound preference in
civil government of veterans or other groups over citizens as a whole.
If New York Stato, as an employer, can care for its own veterans,
60 can other employers. The State and the Association are on firm
ground in this outstandingly important matter,

Public employees and persons
on civil service eligible lists who
engage In “military duty,” as de-
fined by the New York State Mili-
are accorded certain
special rights and privileges under
such law, The public employees,
Civil Service it after | mong other things, are granted
every American-, victory on | military leaves of absence for the
battlefronts, duration of such duty, including
“Every time the time spent reporting for and re-
turning from such duty, und are
entitled to be reinstated upon
thelr return without loss of salary
rights and with accrued ine
ments, if any. The eligibles
entitled to at least two years of
eligibility after their returns, pro-
vided they were reached for cer-
tification while engaged in mili-
tary duty.
It is worthy of note, therefors,
that “military duty,” as defined in
our State law, is not limited to
activities which are military in
nature and which are recognized
&5 military by the Federal govern-
ing has been extended by legis-
lation to cover activities which are
strictly civilian, thus according to
certain civilians the same rights
and privileges that the military
jaw grants to those who enter the
regular armed forces.
Not only does the law recognize
certain civilian activities as “mili-
tary duty,” but it specifically de-
clares that certain types of actual
military service cannot be consid-
ered as “military duty.”
Civilian Activities Listed
‘The civilian activities that con-
stitute “military duty” under the
Military Law are enumerated in
Section 246 (1b) of such law, and
comprise the following:
Service with the American
Red Cross while with the armed
forces of the United States on
foreign service;
2. Service as an officer or mem-
ber of the crew on or in connec-
tion with a vessel owned by, char-
tered to, or operated by or for the
account of the United States;
3. Service as an enrollee in the
posed changes for submission to the
from State workers.
Tt is the hope of the Associa-
tion, and its insurance committee
chairman Mr, Dubuar, that State
Comptroller Frank C. Moore will
find a way to “humanize” the re-
tirement system in many ways,
Mr. Moore himself has said he
would like to do this if it is prac~
tical, if it is actuarily sound, and
if it doesn’t cost too much.
In approaching the problems
involved, Mr. Dubuar and others
are fearful that many employees
will expect too much,
“Some would like to retire when
they get tired of working,” said
one person who is working on a
re-draft of the system law.
The committee feels that what
should be asked in the way of
changes should be reasonable and
fairly possible of realization,
Three of the more important
problems that require modifica-
tion: (1) provision for earlier re-
tirement after 25 or 35 years, but
involved is the question of how |
much additional employees would
be required to pay for the same
benefits; (2) death benefit pro-
visions as against retirement pen~-
sion; (3) greater liberalization of
interest on policy loans,

4. To such an extent as may
be prescribed by or under the
laws of the United States—service
4s an enrollee in the United States
Maritime Service, while awaiting
assignment to such service or dur-
ing any period of education or
training for such service in any
school or institution under the
jurisdiction of the United States
Government,
A recent informal opinion of the
Attorney-General indicates that
only such such maritime service
as falls within the definition con-
tained in the Military Law can be
considered “military duty.” Not
all service in the so-called “mer-
chant marine” can, therefore, be
treated as “military duty” under
the law. A public employee who
contemplates entering the mer-
chant marine service and expects
thereby to obtain a military leave
of absence would be well-advised
to make certain that the nature
of his service will fall within the
ee definition of “military
luty.””
Leaves of Absence to Enter the
Merchant Marine
Tf the maritime activity does not
come within the scope of “mili-
tary duty,” the employee, if he is
in State service, may be able to
obtain renewable one-year leaves
of absence from his appointing of-
ficer, with the consent of the Di-
rector of the Budget, to engage in
such work, Such leaves of ab-
sence may be renewed annually
without requiring the employee to
return to his State job between
leaves. These leaves of absence,
authorized by State Civil Service
Rule XVI (1b). cannot extend be-
yond six months after the war.
Exceptions to “Military Duty”
The kind of military service
with the armed forces of the
‘United States that is specifically
excepted from the definition of
“military duty” under State law
is described in the Military Law
as “temporary and intermittent
gratuitous service in any reserve
or auxiliary force.”

Revision of the State Retirement Law for the Association of State
Civil Service Employees, said the group will meet Wednesday, July 12,
Employees Laud
3-Week Vacations
ALBANY.—Bouquets have been
bouncing on the desks of mem-
bers of the State Civil Service
Commission for the liberality of
its policy in giving three-weeks’
vacation to institution employees.
Clifford C, Shoro, President of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees participated in the
negotiations which led to the
lengthened vacation period.
“The Commission has received
4 number of communications, in-
cluding resolutions adopted by
chapters of the ASCSE, express-
ing appreciation for the way the
vacation schedule was worked
out,” said J. Edward Conway,
president of the Commission,
Judge Conway said that the
Commission, in ordering a three-
weeks vacation for all institution
employees had left with the heads
of the institutions the discretion
of how and when the time was to
be allotted.
It was felt that institutions in
| the departments of"6ocial Welfare,
Correction, Mental Hygiene, and
| Health, are hard-hit by the man-
power shortage and that each in-
| stitution should work out its own
‘vacation schedule.

Filing Claim
For Night Work
(Continued from page 1)
partment in which you did
overtime night work. is
If you file it with your depart-
ment they will refer it to GAO
(unless it is Government Printing
Office, which is trying to make its
own settlement with the workers).
Write the claim in the form of
4 letter and say, “Under a deci-
sion of the Comptroller General,
June 17, 1944, B-41933, Stuart
Kelly, I believe I am owed back
pay... ." Then state the facts
of your case, giving date and
“hours worked. Address your letter
to the General Accounting Office,
Washingtom Dec,
Best way is to make two claims,
One for the money owed you
through the fiscal year 1943 and
one for money owed you bevond
1943. Reason for this is that
|General Accounting Office can
|make immediate settlement for
| money two years back out of un-
expended balances from the
jagencies not paid back to the
‘Treasury,
| Beyond two years the claim will
take an act of Congress. As of
| July 1, Government went into the
fiscal year of 1045,
| Just before this recess of Con-
gress several members tried to
| stop the back payments by legis-
lation. But the last minute press
of business halted the move.
This, fortunately, leaves the
| door open for Federal employes
to collect reasonably soon the
money that is owed them, GAO
will approve claims that can be
paid out of appropriations for
two years back.
To simplify the whole procedure
GAO is urging the agencies to ar-
rive at ® uniform procedure, ¢s-
timate the amount of back pay
due, and ask Congress for a direct
grant. The agency is already bur-
dened with a backlog of work and
may put off the claims to see if
Congress will act to offset the de-
cision by legislation as it did re-
cently in the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing case.
GAO estimates that it will take
20 speedy payroll clerks six months
hard work to go back over the
}books to recompute the night

ers might affect them adversely.
At present, the City Board of
‘Transportation is pretty much In-
_ dependent of control by the City.
| Under State laws, it handles its
own money, sets salaries for its
employees, doesn't have to depend
‘on the City for permission to give

Labor problems have been set-

Ployees,
Last week, Louis Cohen, chair-
man of the Finance Committee of
the City Council, proposed that
the Board’s functions be taken
over by the Board of Estimate
and the City Council. Such action
now would be contrary to State
} laws, but employees are worried

' spired by the City administration,
‘might turn the trick. They prefer

YOUR BLOOD CAN SAVE HIS LIFE
Blood plasma is ammunition.
Only you on the home front can provide that blood so necessary to
carry on at the battlefront.
There are many others in your department who are helping to
provide life blood for America's fighting men.
Have you done your part?
Call your Red Cross blood donor service today for appointment.
The pint of blood you give, painlessly, may mean the difference
between life and death for someone's brother or husband or father.

are entitled under the Starnes-
Strugham Act:
(1) Persons in group (1), above,
are given 5 points in addition to
their earned ratings in civil-ser-
vice examinations, Thus, in writ-
ten examinations, they need earn
a rating of only 65 in order to at-
tain eligibility (nonveterans must
earn a rating of 70 in order to be
eligible). Persons in groups (2),
(3), and (4), above, are given 10
points in addition to their earned
ratings in civil-service examina-
tions, and thus need earn a rating | may
of only 60 in written examinations.
(2) Except tor professional or
scientific positions paying over
$3,000 a year, the names of 10-
point preference eligibles are
placed above all other names on
the civil-service list resulting from
an examination. From this list,
the Civil Service Commission cer-
tifles to Federal appointing offi-
cers the names ef persons who are |
eligible for appointment; the
names highest on the list are cer-
tified first.
When a 5-point preference elig-
ible—after he has received the 5
points to which he is entitled—
and a nonveteran have the same
rating in an examination, the
name of the 5-point eligible is
certified to the appointing officer
ahead of the name of the non-
veteran.
(4) Time spent in the military
or naval service of the United
States is credited in a veteran's
experience rating in an examing-
tion, provided that the applicant's
actual employment in a vocation
similar to that for which he ap-
plies was interrupted by such mil-
itary or naval service.

University
ALBANY — This city houses
America’s strangest university—
an institution without campus,
without faculty, without classes,
without students.
Situated in Albany's big “poli-
tics square,” the USNY bullding
is a block-long edifice, looking like
a Greek temple, Seven hundred
employees are at work there, and
every Christmas they assemble on
the wide steps of the foyer and
sing carols, The rotunda contains
one of the largest chandeliers in
the world—hanging from the dome
by a 60-foot bar,
Stockroom after stockroom is
loaded with books. These rooms
run eight stories—downward, into
the ground. You'll find 2,000,000
volumes there. These are distrib-
uted among five libraries: a Gen-
eral Library, Law Library, Peri~
odical Library, Medical Library,
Legislative Reference Library. Em-
ployees are available to help dig
up all kinds of facts. In addition,
there is a Ubrary of books for the
blind in braille. "Sightless persons
may also avail themselves of the
huge library consisting of récord-
|ings of great books. “Gone With
the Wind” consists of eighty re-
cords!
‘Traveling Libraries
‘The university sends out travel-
ing Ubraries to the remote parts
of the State and people in little
forsaken hamlets have learned ea-
gerly to await the trailer filled
with books, This is part of the
huge program of adult education,
which the University sponsors. Dr,
Prank Tolman, who is in charge
of this program, says: “It is in the
-| very marrow of America that an
enlightened people is a free peo-
ple.”
Sets Education Standards
Perhaps the biggest job of the
University is to set up the stand-
ards of education in the State.
Local schools must follow these
standards or they won't be allowed
