Correction
Dept. Mourns
Lyons’ Death

ALBANY, July 16 — John A.
Lyons, State Commissioner of Cor-
rection, died in his sleep on Thurs-
day, July 12.

Highly regarded by two State|
administrations, one Democratic
and one Republican, and by the|
employees in his department, Mr.
Lyons’ passing has created a sense
of tragedy in the Correction De-
partment. Governor Dewey, issu-
ing a statement from Tokyo, stated
that he is “deeply shocked to learn

of the sudden and tragic passing”
of Mr. Lyons. Death was attributed
to a heart attack.

Began on NYC Police Force

Mr. Lyons began his career as
& member of the NYC police force
im 1909, eventually achieving the
rank of second deputy police com~-
missioner, When the Governor in
1935 became special prosecutor.
Mr. Lyons assisted in his work. In
1936, he was named chief inspec-
tor in charge of the NYC detec-
tive division.

Appointed Commissioner

He was appointed State Corree- |
wernor |

Herbert H. Lehman in 1939, and|
reappointed by Governor Dewey |
in 1943, 1947, and 1951. He was
the only Demc holdover ap- |
pointed to Governor Dewey's cab-
inet when the Republicans took

63 years old. He

Achievement:

ALBANY, July 16 Jesse B |
McParland, president, Civil Serv-
ice Employees Association, ¢om-
menting on the death of Commis-
sioner John A. Lyons, said:

“All in public service in Mew
York State are saddened by the
passing of John Lyons. His ad-
ministration of State prisons es-
tablished a new high standard,

“Commissioner Lyons was @ }
Pioneer among public administra-
tors in recognizing the value of |
Participation of employees in}
decisions affecting employment
conditions. He instituted a pian
of conferences with representa-
tives of the employees own choos:
ing. and the representatives were
called to Albany at regular inter-
vals. He backed up the fair ap-
peals of his employees with execu-
tive and legislative leaders and
with the Civil Service Commission
in all matters of salary, hours of
Work, overtime, and leave privi-
leges.

“His sincerity and humaneness
were so real that they inspired im-
mediate respect and friendship.”

State Civil Service Commissioner Al
er of ceremonies; State Commerce Commis:

who are receiving these awards
of merit today are indeed public
servants extraordinary.

“We hear it often said these
days that not enough responsible
citizens with outstanding quall-
fications enter public office in our
jcountry, While I am optimistic
enough to believe that this situ-
ation is improving constantly, I
do agree basically that govern-
mental affairs in this country
would be conducted better if more
¢ivic-minded people could be in-
duced to hold public office, But to
those who are pessimistic about the
prospect, I say this: Don't over-
look the immeasurable contribu-
tions to public service? made by
men and women all over our
country who are not in politics,
who don’t run for office, but who
do in full measure accept the re-
sponsibility of good citizenship
by giving of themselves and their
talenfs for civic causes and for the
improvement of our national,
State and local governments,

The Meaning of Cooperation
“Show me & prosperous, prog-
|ressive community, and I will
show you that its local govern-
} ment has the benefit of the advice
and close-working cooperation of
its business, labor and profes-
sional leaders,

“I wish that were more unt-
Versally true. Too often, in com-
munities with vexing troubl we
hear the gripes and groans but
too little constructive participation,
I go about this State telling busi-
ness groups that since government
is intruding more and more into
the business and personal life
of all of us—largely by reason of
the demands of modern times—
business men owe it to themselves
to intrude more and more into
the business of government. There
is still w great need for better
cooperation betw all areas of
Private life, on the one hand,
4nd government on the other. The
permanence of our present free
System on @ wholesome basis de-
mands it, Cooperation must be
based on understanding. Under-
standing, in turn, comes only
from the will to recognize each
other's problems and appriciate
each other's needs and accomp-
lishments. The significance of this
event today is that i¢ is a form
jot Sppreciation of the cooperation
that can and does exist between
Private enterprise and public en-
i" vor,

‘So in honoring you who h
}done so much in the public gts
| terest, I express the sentiments
of all who are government work-
ers. We are grateful for your
j enlightened contributions to pub-
Me affairs, we are glad for this
opportunity to tell you so and we
hope that your example will be

Dewey Mum
On Gerry
Appointment

ALBANY, July 16.—No indica-

tion has come from Governor
Dewey's office on whether State
Civil Service Commissioner Louise
Cc. Gerry of Buffalo will be re-
appointed.

Miss Gerry a Republican mem-
ber of the Commission, has been
continuing her duties on an in-
terim basis since her nig of of-
fice expired in Pebru:

She has served on ‘the Com-
mission since July, 1943. Governor
Dewey named her to a full six-
year term in February, 1945.

No appointment is expected be-
fore Governor Dewey's return
from his Pacific tour, and many
Political observers feel an ap-
Pointment, if any, will not be
forthcoming until after election.

Influence Is Felt

Considerable pressure is being
brought to bear in Miss Gerry's
favor, Buffalo and western New
York officials are urging the Gov-
ernor to reappoint Miss Gerry
on her record, She alsy has won
the support of various labor chief-
tains In the western part of the
State.

Whether the pressure is suffici-
ent to influence the Governor has
not been determined. The evi-
dence is that the Governor would
rather not re-appoint her, How=
ever, it is recalled that the Com-
mission president, J. Edward Con-
Way, was kept “on the string" for
nine months, and was then finally
re-appointed for a full term.

Monaghan Makes
A Fine Beginning

EORGE P. Monaghan has entered upon his duties as
NYC Police Commissioner in a way that has a good,
solid, substantial look. If he continues his refreshing ap-
proach, the Police Department can look forward not only
to internal improvement, but to heightened public regard.

His first statement was that he would go to work on
the terrible narcotics problem in an effort to “suppress
the sale and use”’ of the drug. Every parent will say amen.

He said flatly that he would give “full cooperation
without restriction” to the Mayor’s Committee on Manage-
ment Survey, which has been stymied up till now in its ef-
forts to improve the Police Department's efficiency. All

“ good government groups will applaud Monaghan’s deci-
sion in this.

There would be periodic conferences between him and
the District Attorneys in the five counties, as well as with
other local law-enforcement officials, Such coordination
ought to reeult in much swifter, more efficient police
operation,

He will work “shoulder to shoulder” with his men,
he states. There is reason to hope that he may bring en-
lightened labor relations within the department. 9 he
does, he will be accomplishing a major improvement.

Promotions, he added, would be based om merit and
“nobody will be promoted unless his work is deserving.”
A statement from a Police Commissioner lauding the merit
system is a welcome innovation. If Commissioner Mona-
ghan can resist the blandishments and pressures of the
politicians, and really push the merit system all the way
up the line, he will be performing a great publie service
for the people of the City.

The beginning is excellent. Keep it up, George!

The Bitter Words
Of Mr. Embree

E RECORD below the bitter, important words written

last week by William Dean Embree, chairman of
the executive committee of the Civil Service Reform
Association.

“Civil service machinery suffers throughout the State
from politics, distrust of briiliance and flexibility, too low
pay levels and lack of promotion opportunities, It is in-
escapable that in spite of almost 70 years under the Civil
Service Law, it is still easier to advance in the service-if
ene has good political connections. A quick review of
many of the govérnment departments lends credence to
the view that safe mediocrity pays off better than bril-
Hance. Public positions, from top to bottom, come off
second best in the race with industry for the best talent.

“Civil service suffers from administration by ‘in-bred
public administration theorists.’ Public personnel manage-
ment in recent years has, in truth, become a pseudo-
science in the eyes of its practitioners, and to some of
them the techniques have become more important than
the ends to be served. ‘As in all technical operations, there
fs sometimes a temptation to forget the objectives in the
fascination of devising new forms and methods, and to
feflow rules rather than attempt to solve problems,”

Court Lists Reasons

A decision in point was rendered
by the Supreme Court in New
York County last year. An em-
ployee of a private subway system
taken over by NYC was classified
as an Assistant Supervisor (Struc-
tures) in 1942 after a hearing be-
fore a technical review committee.
More than seven years passed,
during which the employee com-
peted in a promotion examination

for the afternoon demon-/

group oral examinations in the
past three years. So far, the oral
discussion tests have been limited.
Civil service technicians say re-
sults and reaction have been “ex-
cellent.”

‘The tests usually are used only
where there are limited numbers of

candidates for a promoti ex-
amination.
The Purpose
Purpose of group orals is to

test a candidate's ability to deal
effectively with others, to speak
effectively with others, and to
speak weil. Tact and poise are also
evident in this type of examin:
tion,

‘The method is to create situa-
tions in which candidates can
demonstrate their possesion or
lack of these abilities by his in-
ter-action with other candidates.

‘The candidates are scored by
examiners who observe the entire
examination, which usually is
recorded.

‘he Port of New York Author-
ity, the New York City Board of
Education and the federal govern-
ment al have used group oral
discussion tests.

for needy pensioners drawing un-|tired State employees. The State
der $75 a month were mailed out | pays the difference between what

troller.

Approximately 600 retired work-
@ts, both State and Municipal,
have been approved for the extra
ehecks authorized by the 1951
legislature. The money comes from
& special $2,000,000 fund set up
by legislative action.

Deputy State Comptroller Wil-
Ham J. Dougherty reveals that
the present number of pensioners
approved for the one-year emerg-
@mcy program was below expecta-
tions. He indicated however, that
the list would grow as municipall-
ties decide to take part In the
Program.

Most Are State Employees

Approximately 90 per cent of

getting and the $75 monthly mini-
mum pension authorized by the
legislature. In the case of muni-
cipal pensioners, the State pays
only one-half the difference, the
municipality paying the other half.

The big question on the pro-
gram at this time is what action
will be taken by New York City
in the program. There are no ac-

curate estimates on the number}

of New York City retired em-
ployees who would become eligible
for the extra checks if the City
decides to join the program.

Two Monthly Checks

Those approved for the extra
benefits will receive two checks
monthly: their permanent pen-

Governor Accused

The Governor {s charged with
having fatled to provide “the sup-
port which might have been ex-
pected of him."

On classification, selection and
promotion, the report says that
the State system is too narrow.

The Reform Association would
like to see more active promotions,
crossing bureau and departmental
lines more freely than now,

Political Referrals

Tn a sharp attack upon politics
in public service, the report states:
“It is common knowledge that
provisional and temporary em-
ployees in State service have been
hired largely on the basis of po-

litical referrals, A system of per-
sonal and political patronage
seems widespread in exempt and
non-competitive appointments. ..«
Governor Dewey, perhaps more
than anyone, must realize the ef-
fect ef this patronage system on
efficient government. Yet he hime
self can cure this canker which is
the cause of many of the problems
in the civil service which he him-

‘self has criticized.”

OLD FRIENDS SURPRISED
TO BE NEIGHBORS, TOO
HOMEWARD BOUND on the
Long Island Railroad last week,
Secretary Frank J. Schaefer of
the NYC Civil Service Commis-
sion became dimly uware that
some one was eyeing him.
Then his eyes travelled from
the shoes of some one standing
near him, gradually upward to
the face and he saw the familiar
features of Dr. Wallace 8. Sayre,
head of the department of public

administration, College of the

City of New York. Dr, Sayre was

formerly, a NYC Civil Service

mmissioner, Dr, Schaefer was
ary then, too.

“Hello,” said the professor.
thought you lived in Bayside.”

‘No, I live here in Douglas-
ton,” replied Dr. Schaefer.

The Ph. b's got off the train
together and spoke of how nice it
was to be living in the same town,

Under the special terms and
conditions governing certification

the Municipal Civil Service Com-
mission notifies each department
that “unless these names are dis-

‘That is part of the concerted

Bonus Appeal

A court decision was affirmed
last week upholding the right of
veterans to have the bonus in-
cluded in the military pay differ-
ential. The Appellate Term of the
Supreme Court, Brooklyn, render-
ed the decision in favor of Martin
M. Spencer for $1,021.35,

Under Section 245 of the Mill-
tary Law an employee of the
State or one of its civil divisions,
if a member of a reserve corps or
force in 1942, who remained such
until ordered to military duty, is
entitled to the difference between
his job pay, and his military pay,
if the military pay is smaller,
NYC has not been counting the
bonus as part of the benefit, stat-
ing that a bonus is discretionary.

The veterans claim they are en-
titled to the bonus they would
have received, had they not been
in military service, especially
since the bonus was paid to those
who were not in military service,

“We believe,” said Zelman —
Zelman, attorneys for Mr, Spen-
cer, “that the decision is of great
significance, since it establishes
that the bonus is a part of salary
and compensation.”

Another One

One of the candidates in the
exam for promotion to Lieutenant,
Fire Department, has been put on
the disqualified list by the NYC
Civil Service Commission because
he carried to the written test, in
his eyeglass case, printed matter
bearing on possible questions in

the exam. A monitor reported that

the fireman had the paper on his

desk and referred to it in connec-

= with reading the exam ques-
jons.

Jobs as Stenos and Typists

NYC has begun « drive to fill
stenographer and typist jobs from
eligibie lists. The same 60 names
have been certified to 32 different
departments and agencies.

The Civil Service Commission
has sent letters to each of the 60,/
informing them that they may/
expect a call from any one or
more of the departments.

Dr. Schaefer Sends Letter

The letter to the eligibles, signed
by Secretary Frank A. Schaefer of
the Commission, warns that they
may not decline because they want
to be appointed to some other de-
partment, A declination on that
ground removes the. eligible's
name from the list, Insufficient
anlary, however, is an acceptable
ground. Declinations should be
made on forms supplied by = de~
partment to which certification
was made.

Dr. Schaefer's letter gives the
address of each department, a0
that the eligibles can see how far
they would have to travel.

Trials to Start i

‘The NYC Sanitation Depart-)
ment expects to try the 15 Sanita~
tion Men, accused of not properly
performing their duties, in the
recent slowdown, im about two
weeks. The two hearing officers
are Samuel Edson, Deputy Com-
missioner, and Joseph M, Amiee,
assistant to the Commissioner, It
is expected that the cases will be
divided between them.

‘The department suspended the
men, but after the union that had
started the slowdown called it off,
reinstated them as an indication
that there would be no severity,
unless any of the men had been
abusive to superiors. Fines of one
or two days’ pay are all that are
expected except in unusual cer-
cumstances.

‘The department is sympathetic
to the men’s campaign for higher
pay and. better hours, but not
with the latest method used, the
informant stated. The pay ques-
tion must be decided by the Board
of Estimate, Stanicy B, Krasowski,

Hospitals and Welfare have dif-
ficulty in getting acceptances be-
cause of the nature of the func-
tions performed by those depart-

tions because of the long week. In-
cidentally, even before the 40-hour
week goes into effect for the oper-
ating employees of the Board of
Transportation, it is expected that
employee unions will press for a
similar work-week for the non-

|operating employees, If that res-
|sult accrues, the Board's recruit-

ment problems for clerks, stenog-
raphers and typists may be over,
as working conditions in the Board
are rated excellent.

|SAX¥S PUBLIC HAS WRONG
IDEA ON TAX EXEMPTION
Editor, The LEADER:

You are to be complimented on
the fine job you are doing in
publicizing the efforts to obtain
U.S. income tax exemption for
public employee pensioners. Not
too many present public employees
are doing all they should to aid
the effort to obtain fair treatment.
Many lose sight of the fact that,
though they are the employees of
today they are the pensioners of
tomorrow.
The public at large probably
doesn't understand the situation at
all. I often hear people ask, “Why
should public employee pensioners
get income tax exemption? Are
they a privileged class?” The ques-
toners are astounded when in-
formed that practically everybody
except public employee pensioners
does receive income tax exemption,
and all that the public employee
pensioners are asking is to be
treat the same as the others.
It seems strange that Congress

stoners for equality with their

THE transit Patrolman-Bridge
and Tunnel Officer - Correction
Officer list, which the Municipal
Civil Service Commission certified
for filling jobs as Inspector of
Markets, Weights ano Measures,
was proper for the purpose, Su-
preme Court Justice Samuel Dick-
stein decided. Provisionals in the
Department of Markets had
brought suit on the ground that
the exam for the tri-titled list
did not test for the qualifications
needed for the Inspecter job,

Justice Dickstein came to his
decision after a trial.
ly, Supreme Court Justice Denis
O'Leary Cohalan had held that
the triple list was inappropriate,
fut the Appelate Division, on
the appeal by the City sent that
question back for trial.

Forty-three jobs are at stake.

Mario Biaggi, vice president of
the PBA, said that the 20-year
provision was enacted in its pres-
ent form under the LaGuardia
Pusion Administration, which he
called the worst period of hostility
toward policemen, yet there was
no attempt even then to encroach
on the minimum service term for
retirement.

Mr. Biaget called the bills, in-
troduced by Councilman Stanley
M. Isaaes, ripper legislation.
Reid Sces Bill Part of Scheme

William J, Reid, president of
the Uniformed Firemen’s Asso-
charged that the bills
were a deliberate effort to under-
mine both policemen and firemen.
He asserted that Fire Department
reeruitment, like that in the Po-
lice Department, was falling off,

less, attractive.

Others who spoke against the
bill were Police Lieutenant Josephr
J. Regan Jr., of the Lieutenants
Benevolent Association; Marie
Scagelli, president, Policewomen's
Endowment Association; Joseph
R. Harley, president, Detectives
Endowment Association; and Act-
ing Police Lieutenant James
Sheridan, president, Sergeants’

Recent Pension Legislation

Other recent legislation affect-
ing police or fire pensions in-
cluded the law requiring a wait
of 30 days before an application
for a pension could become effec-
tive, and setting the compulsory
retirement age at 63.

The 30-day bills affect both de-
partments, The age-63 bill affects
the Police Department, but a bill
covering the Fire Department has
been prepared, Mayor Vincent R.
Impellitteri recently signed the
age-63 bill. It became Local Law
71, It allows those who are 63 or
over, who have not completed the
20 years, to remain until they are
entitled to retire.

Budget Commission Comment

The Citizens Budget Commission
said the 20-year plan is too ex-
pensive, requiring employee con-
twibutions which sometimes reach
17% of salary; it is too expensive
for the City also, exceeding the
cost of all other pension systems,
the group said.

For men retiring young, after
20 years in service, the pension
serves to supplement salaries they
carn thereafter in other employ-
ment, The CBC calls this a “sub-
sidy for men willing and able to
do valuable full-time work.”

employee's pension, the bulletin
adds, must run up to $2250 a

untaxed Social Secuirity pension.
Besides, the House already has
passed the tax bill raising the in-
come tax rates, Even at present
rates, the public eniployee engi-
neer in NYC would have to work
until he's 72 to take home the
equivalent $1,800 a year untaxed
pension, or seven years beyond
the Social Security minimum re-
tirement age of 65.

ALBANY, July 16, — Interest
in the forthcoming Art Show of
the Civil Service Employees As-
sociation holds at a high level.
A cursory survey owed that
many employees are working
weekends preparing exhibits and
others are contemplating working
in the inspirational settings of
meadow, hill and sea during their
vacations. One state unit reports
that twenty or more of it employ-
ard are planning to submit ex-

For Amateurs, Too

Charles B. Sheridan, chairman
of the Art Show Committee, in
commenting upon the preliminary
canvas, said:

“The Committee hopes that ev-
eryone who indulges in the arts
as a pastime or profession will
contemplate submitting specimens
of their handiwork. This is not an
Art Show for professional painters
alone — but one serving the ama-
teur as well. It is part of the effort

tural activities to relieve the ten-
sions of present-day living and
also to demonstrate that public
employees and their families are
human beings with interests in
living beyond the limits of their
job or the emoluments accom-
panying them.”

He continued:

“Anyone eligible who has a
painting, etching or piece of sculp-
ture to present is urged to remem-
ber the deadline of Tuesday, Sep-
tember 4, 1951, If anyone has an
exhibit ready for submission now,
it can be sent to the Albany Insti-
tute of History and Art, 125 Wash-
ington Ave,, Albany, N. Y¥. and
it will be safely stored for review
by the judges, The three man jury,
whose names will be announced
soon, will work selecting the ex-
hibits some time during the perlod
from September 4 until the open-
ing of the show on the 18th.”

Interest Is State-Wide
Mr, Sheridan also commented on

the interest which is being shown

outside of Albany:

“It is particularly gratifying for
us to receive inquiries regardin,
the show from the counties sur.
rounding the Capitol, We have
advertised as widely as possible,
sending out more than 500 posters
to every public official, art teach-
ers and legislators in the area, Re-
member, every public employee
and/or his spouse is eligible. This
includes elected officials, school
teachers or employees as well as
those we usually define as civil
servants, The Committee urges
the representatives of the Asso-
ciation to ald in spreading infor-
mation about it as far as possible.”

Public employees in Albany, Co-
lumbia, Essex, Fulton, Greene,
Hamilton,” Montgomery, Rensse-
laer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Scho-
harie, Warren or Washington
Counties are eligible to exhibit, In-
formation on the rules of entry
