itchell Bill'Wins Surprisingly Strong Suppor!
At Legion Hearing; Other Vet Groups Okay It
By MAXWELL LEHMAN
NY, Jan, 17—The Ameri-
ont is expected to issue &
latement’ on its vet preference
Position by the end of this month,
4 Legion committee heard vet-
Hi representatives give their
5 on the subject in an all~
pittrnoon session on Saturday,
Miualy 8; and the committee has
ve been deliberating its stand.
The most remarkable result of
* hearing was evidence of the
ide differences of opinion with-
Hi the organization. The Condon
, Which The Legion sponsored,
lpg even after a yeay—solidi~
Veteran opinion behind it,
On the contrary, a strong sector
of Legion opinion rallied behind
the Mitchell bill, which most civil
service and civic organizations
support. A third group, numeri-
cally small, went on record in
favor of the called “Kings
County resolutio1 which is an
entirely new measure.
‘The Legionnaires appeared be-
fore the committee both individu-
ally and in small groups. Some
of those who spoke are affiliated
with other veteran organizations
as well as the Legion.
Split in the Ranks
After the hearing, some of those
interviewed expressed the opinion
that the Legion cannot properly
take a stand for the Condon bill,
in view of the clear split of opinion
within its ranks. This split, which
has been evident since the two
competing bills were introduced
in the Legislature last year, ap-
peared on the floor of the State-
wide Legion convention last sum-
mer, The subcommittee on vet-
eran preference was set up at
that time, Official support for the
Legion-sponsored Condon measure
was withheld, despite previous
backing, when the controversial
question threatened to prolong the
convention.
Nevertheless, the stand taken
by the committee will have great
importance. Frank D, Symons,
commander of the Fire Depart-
ment Post 930, in NYC, went he-
fore the committee with others of
his post to support the Mitchell
bill, in accordance with the strong
mandate of his post. Nevertheless,
Mr, Symons felt compelled to add,
in a statement to The LEADER,
“Of course, our stand will con-
form with the official Legion posi-
tion when that is taken.”
Other veterans who spoke in
favor of the Mitchell bill were
John D. Tracy, Legionnaire and
Past Commander of the Greater

The previous Sergeant case de-
cided that since the examination

made by President Truman in his
State of the Union message to
Congress are adopted,
If the program is carried out,
the U. S. employee rolls will in-
crease to about. 2,080,000,
One of the largest increases
would be of Enforcement Agents
in the Treasury Department's Bu-
reau of Internal Revenue, ‘ This
year’s budget allows for 2,000
more by July 1.next, but if the
proposals for the ensuing fiscal

Real Opportunity
“The more the merrier,” satd
@ Commission informant. “This
is a real opportunity to get hired.”
The job starts at $1.34 an hour
and goes up to $1.59. Though the
hours vary slightly, considering 45
hours a week as the a’ age, the
weekly pay is in excess of $71 at
the top pay, and more than $60
at the start. Those who work the
full 48-hour-week get about 7
per cent more than the cited fig-
ures. Appointments are made at
the maximum rate.
Wide Geographical Distribution
One of the attractions is that
jobs will be open in all boroughs,
| excepting only The Bronx, so that
Bus Maintainers can look forward
to getting a job not far from
home, particularly in their own
boroughs. The reason for the

Demand for nearly all types of
metals is still in excess of supply.
Metal prices moved upward sub-
stantially during the year, as the
table shows.
There has been no increase in
basic steel prices since July but
charges for “extras” (special
grades and shapes of steel) were
boosted substantially in receipt
weeks. An increase of about 10
per cent in tin plate prices oc-
curred on January 1, 1949,
Among the non-ferrous metals,
lead, zinc, aluminum, mercury and
cadmium all advanced in price
during the final quarter of 1948.
Prices Continue to Rise
The prices of commodities other
than food and apparel studied by
the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statis-
tics in compiling its cost-of-living
index, such as housefurnishings,
y, | fuel, miscellaneous rent, continued
to increase in the past few months.
The Federal Reserve Bank of
New York, in its Monthly Review
of January, 1949, summarizes the
situation as follows:
“Despite the weakening of in-
flationary pressures, however, there
are (price) sustaining factors in
the situation, such as the rela-
tive absence to date of speculative
inventory accumulation, the pros-
pect of large Government expendi-
tures On defense and foreign re-
lief, and the existence of a sup-
port program which should pre-
vent any considerable further de-
cline in farm prices.”
Pay Envelope’s Plight
In short, the State employee's
pay envelope in 1949 does not
stretch as far as it did in 1940 or
1942 or 1946. Nor can adjustment
be begged off on the basis of high-
ly problematical future price de-
clines. The position of the civil
service worker was described in
an editorial of New York Herald
Tribune on January 4, last as
follows:
“. . « Probably the most dan-
gerous aspect of further inflation,
if it should come, would be its
unequal incidence, While business
groups, union labor and farmers
have been able to raise their in-
comes as prices rose, civil ser-
vants, office workers, pensioners
and non-union laborers have fal-
Jen behind in the race against
living costs. The experience of
the 1920’s showed how the general
prosperity could be undermined if
the purchasing power of any large
group — at that time it was the
incomes of farmers that suffered
— was seriously impaired. It is
Particularly hard right now to as-
sess the strength of inflationary
factors, but it is well to be aware
of the dangers that will threaten
us if they should prove dominant.”

On point number 1, the Civil

number of conferences. No-infor-
mation is as yet available concern-
ing the results. The Association,
representing some 40,000 State
employees, is asking a minimum
12 per cent increase in pay.
Condon-Wadlin
On repeal of Condon-Wadlin,
all civil service organizations are

The Condon-
robe of Trooper Conditions
Wadlin bill was jammed through
Jast year against a reluctant Legis-
lature. Employees contended that.
the need for such a bill was not
shown, that it was politically moti-
vated, that its terms were venge-
fully harsh, and that it didn’t set
up any means for dealing with
grievances,
A bill for the setting up of
grievance machinery was intro-
duced last year, sponsored by the
Civil Service Employees Associa-
tion. It failed of passage, even
though it had some warm sup-
porters within the administration.
A similar measure is already in
the hopper; its chances may be
better at this session.

HATS OFF 10 THE LEGISLATURE
HAT preserves democracy in New York and in Ameri-
ca is the free legislature.
I do not wish to- play down the importance of the
executive or of the courts, but the making of the rules of
living and working together in a progressive commonwealth
—the passing of just laws which all citizens must observe—
is obviously the first essential of democratic living.
The legislator fortunately is closer to the people than
are his partners in government. He is chosen by a rela-
tively small group of his neighbors and friends, whom he
must know pretty well, and whose respect he must earn
and keep, and whose real interests he must always represent,
Majority Opinion the Key
The fundamental problem of legislation is the finding
of a majority opinion on major problems among a body of
men selected largely for their outstanding individualism,
There has grown up an,extra-legal system of pressures and
controls including such devices as the party caucus, the
party conference, pressure groups of all kinds, lobbies and
the like, devoted to the development of majorities for or
against broad platforms or particular proposals. It is a
wonder that any legislator preserves his conscience and
his independence of thought under these pressures: that
he remains a free man and master of his soul.
The Architects and Molders
Political scientists will long debate whether the legis-
lator is a free agent or is merely a party man. The truth
seems to be that he must be free to be either, as his mind
and conscience dictate. To get any legislation, you have to
haye'the votes of a majority of the legislature. To get a
majority you have to make compromises, preferably those
“higher compromises” that lead to better and better laws,
For myself, I hope to see the legislature recognized as
the chief agent of the people in protecting and in advancing
democracy. They, more than any other governmental group,
are the architects, the molders of tomorrow!

Still Feuding
On Ward
ALBANY, Jan, 17.—The State
Civil Service Department is pre-
paring to go ahead with a pro-
posed examination for promotion
to Warden in State prisons and
Correction institutions, despite dif-
ferences of opinion over eligibility.
‘he dispute was touched off
when the forthcoming test was
limited, at the request of State
Correction Commissioner John A.
Lyons, to custodial employees,
Limited Test
this proposal, the ex-
limited to the uni-
permitting only
Principal Keepers, Assistant Prin-
cipal Keepers and Captains in
prisons to sign up.
Some Want Wider Group
But others in the department
feel the examination should be
opened up to include educators,
psychologists, psychiatrists and
principal clerks, This school of
thought stresses rehabilitation as
the prime object of prison ad-
ministration,
‘They point out the last pro-
Under
en Exams
motion examination for warden |,
was held in 1939 in which several
of the so-called “professionals” in
the department competed and won
appointments.
Practicality
Those supporting the official
department position contend se-
curity and competent administra-
tion by practical men is the chief
requisite in the state’s pr
tem. Thus, they say, promotion
lines are adequately being carried
out by limiting promotion exam-
inations for warden to custodial
employees.
While no date has yet been set
for the examination, it appears
the department stand will be fol-
lowed. The deadline for applica-
tions is long past and observers
point out it would take a minor
revolution to stop the examination
machinery at this stage.
Commissioner Lyons is known to
be anxious to have the list es-
tablished so he can fill vacancies
in Sing Sing, Elmira, Woodburne
and Auburn,

Urged to Aid
March of Dimes
ALBANY, Jan. 17—Every pub-
lic employee should have a part
in the March of Dimes program.
Take it from Bill McDonough,
executive representative of the
Civil Service Employees Associa-
tion, that this is one of the truly
firm, and least expensive contri-
butions, which a civil service em-
ployee can make to society.
During last summer's historic
onslaught of infantile paralysis,
when 27,000 cases were reported,
dimes and dollar contributions to
the annual March of Dimes were
on the firing line, Bill says.
It was only through the con-
tributions of the American public
to the annual appeal of the Na-
tional Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis was able to bring to the
front thousands of skilled polio
fighters—doctors, nurses, physical

State Civil Service
Doing Better Job
HE STATE Civil Service Department is striving to meet
a three-month deadline between the holding of a test
and the publication of its eligible list. The director of ex-
aminations, Thomas Bransford, confidently expects that he'll
be able to achieve this goal by mid-summer,
If he sueceeds—and he has a habit of succeeding—he
will eliminate a sore point of controversy. It often happens
that a year or more elapses between the time a test is held
and the eligible list published. Those who took the test feel
offended at this delay; departments can’t fill positions with
competent people; the roster of provisionals grows, and by
the time the list is ready for use, those whose names appear
on it are often widely dispersed, safely ensconced in other
jobs, or just plain disgusted with such goings-on, Nobody
is happy.
Mr. Bransford ha:
We hope he achieves it,
set a desirable goal for himself.
Additional Forward Steps
The State Commission has taken several additional
steps to improve its work.
For one thing, it has released its calendar, formerly a
confidential document and its decisions and activities will
now be more widely publicized. Th a step in the public
interest.
Still further enlarging the range of its public informa-
tion to the public, the Department has begun compiling, at
regular intervals, a comprehensive resume of examination
progr Every person who has taken a State exam—open-
competitive or promotion—now has available the information
he wants: when the eligible list resulting from that exam
will be ready, together with a lot of additional pertinent
information. The LEADER published the first of these
compilations in last week’s issue.
The LEADER had urged all three steps. In conference
with Commission President J. Edward Conway and his col-
leagues, we have pointed out that such information not
would be indicative of increased efficiency in the Com-
m itself, but would be an important public service.
The commissioners have listened, and now they are acting.

is growing evidence of improved technical work in the State

and his ability to assess an ulti-

~ THAT'S HOW this column
wor! When some were saying,
after the Presidential election,
that Dewey is “through,” we con-
tended that he would remain in
control of the State GOP situa-
tion; when others blandly said
Dewey would retire, we main-
tained he would be actively cam-
paigning for his future in poli-
tics, Dewey has had defeats be-
fore, since the Jimmy Hines mis-
trial, and he has always come
back. Right now he's acting like a
candidate for Governor. It is diffi-
cult to think of Dewey again
running for the Presidency, but it
is idle whim to count him out of
litical life. He may go on to
come a U. S. Senator, a Cabinet
member, or go on the U. 8. Su-
ue Court bench—but retire?
0.
IN ARRIVING at its opinions,
this column frequently asks the
opinions of the most informed
persons. Thus, Don’t Repeat This
is querying reporters who cover
the State Legislature in Albany
and those who cover City Hall in
New York, on something that’s
going to happen in 1950. We're
seeking the informed opinions of
these men, who are closest to
Politics, as of now.
We asked them three questions:
1, As things look now, which of
the following, in your opinion, is
likely to be the Republican can-
didate for Governor?
the Democratic candidate for
Governor?
3. As you see the situation,
which side is likely to win the elec-
tion in 1950? Republicans? Demo-
crats?
OF COURSE, much will hap-
pen in the interval between now]
and 1950 to determine the nature |
of competing forces, to jut up-|
ward some individuals and to quell |
the ambitions of others. Neverthe_
less, it is informative to know the
present situation, Gubernatorial
candidates rarely grow overnight.
It's usually a long grooming proc-
ess, and it is already possible to
name many prospective candi-
dates, both among the Republicans
and the Democrats. Next week,
Don't Repeat This hopes to carry
the views of the newspapermen on
the subject.
THOMAS’ E. DEWEY still re-
mains outstanding among the
prospects for Governor. Nobody
else is going to have the GOP
candidacy unless Dewey gives his
approval. And Dewey's current
actions are pristine indications
that he is continuing to build a
record for himself.
‘There are at least nine other
current possibilities among the
Republicans:
WILLIAM DONOVAN, the
cloak-and-dagger general, has a
kind of glamor that could rally a
strong section of GOP strength
around him, particularly on the
right-wing side. Several of the
kingmakers have been looking him
over.
GEORGE FRANKENTHALER,
newly-elected NYC Surrogate,
commands much prestige because
of the way he ran against Tam-
many. Frankenthaler could con-
trol the Liberal Party vote, and
make a good showing with NYC
labor. Bub his party will prob-
ably not want to give up the
patronage-rich Surrogacy. And
he himself, as a true legal scholar,
would prefer his present post to
the higher honor of being Gover-
nor,
JOE R. HANLEY may be con-
sidered too old for the job—but
he still secretiy eniertains am-
bitions for it. He’s popular with
Republican politicos throughout
|the State, and would benefit from
the shock which befell some of the
legislators when they learned that
they weren’t to have him in the
Executive Chambers, where they'd
prefer a man akin to them psy-
chologically, Joe, despite his age,
would be a good campaigner.
NATHANIEL GOLDSTEIN must
be listed because he has been @
consistent vote-getter on the
State-wide ticket, has built an
excellent reputation as Attorney
General. He's widely popular in
both political and non-political
circles. Racial considerations, so
important in politics, could be an
important factor with Goldstein—
either for him or against him, de-
pending uon the complete situa-
tion at the time, .
IRVING IVES is considered by
many the most “natural” candi-
date of all if Dewey decides he
doesn’t want to run. Ives has
built_a top reputation for himself
as a United States Senator, stands
well with labor, and would have a
harmonious party behind him.
FRANK C. MOORE has been
mentioned more frequently than
any other Republican as Dewey's
successor to the governorship.
Moore would like to know what
Dewey intends to do, so that he
could get out from under and be-
gin building himself up actively,
In NYC, where he isn’t too well
known, such a buildup is especially
important to him. An excellent
administrator and sincere student
of government, Moore has behind
him the Association of Towns and
an informal machine consisting of
municipal officials.
ROBERT P. PATTERSON
gained prestige by turning down
a Court of Appeals appointment
recently. As former Secretary of
War with a reputation as a lib-
eral, and with a good press for
many years, Patterson would make
a formidable candidate. Appointed
to the Federal bench originally
as a Republican, he was deemed
to be a Roosevelt voter.
OSWALD D. HECK and D.
MALLORY STEVENS are powers
in the State Assembly, and will
have more influence in making
the next candidate than the can-
didate himself, if it’s anyone other
than Dewey. Either one of these
men might be considered by their
colleagues as the kind of person
they'd like on the second floor of
the State capitol.
The Democratic picture is more
confused than the Republican, and
more variables will influence the
choice of a candidate.
WILLIAM O’DWYER, if
should win the NYC Mayoralty
by better than 700,000 votes, and
if he straightens out his relatiohs
with some of the upstate Demo-
cratic leaders, might be a sure
bet for the candidacy. He would
probably prefer the quieter life
of a Governor, the relative ease
of the personal life a Governor
leads, and freedom from the hurly-
burly of a New York City May-
or’s existence—who must give ear
to the troubles of everybody with-
in subway distance. But there's
no certainty O'Dwyer will even
run for Mayor. again,
JOHN CASHMORE, B'klyn boss,
heads the biggest borough with
the most Democratic votes—but
has some opposition in his own
bailiwick, Cashmore has his eyes
on, the Albany job, but a series
of circumstances in NYC politics
makes his position as a prospective
candidate unstable. Cashmore
could wind up as a Mayor, a Gov-
ernor, a U. S. Senator, or a de-
posed Brooklyn boss.
STANLEY CHURCH has been
mentioned as a Democratic pos-
sibility, He showed his power
when he was elected Mayor of
New Rochelle, only Democratic
Mayor of a Republican city. He
might be a good candidate, but
some powers on the State Com-
mittee think he could fit better
elsewhere than as head of the
ticket. They don’t want to bring
him out too fast.

the Chief must be appointed by

other organizations backing the
Mitchell bill are meanwhile wooing
the Legion to set up @ united
front for that measure.
Other Vet Groups
Other veteran organizations are
considering their stand on the
two bills, The Veterans of For-
eign Wars, during a recent legis-
lative conference, postponed de-
cision on the controversial ques-
tion. It is deemed significant,
however, that
a functionary as John Tracy is
solidly on record for the Mitchell
amendment,
Last week, too, the Business and
Professional chapter of New York,
American Veterans Committee,
went on record for the Mitchell
measure,
And the Jewish War Veterans
have for some months been cam~-
paigning vigorously for the Mit-
chell as against the Condon or
any other measure.
Committee Work Praised
Although the Legion committee
meeting in Albany was closed to
the press, and testimony was given
privately, those attending the
‘The | hearing were unanimous in voicing
rors for the committee handling
of the conference.
Grossman’s Testimony
In the course of his testimony,
Major Harry Grossman, New York
County Commander of the Jewish
War Veterans told the Legion
committee:
“The theory of veteran pref-
erence is to give the veteran a
job, and, if he is already in civil
service, to give him some advan-
tage in promotion, But it is un-
fair to put him in a privileged
class for all time. It is evident.
that the Mitchell bill is by far
the better of the two proposals,
as it does something for the non-
disabled and the disabled veteran
in entrance and promotion exam-
inations and does not heavily
handicap the non-veteran,
Speaking of the huge advantage
which disabled veterans would en-
joy under the Condon measure,
Grossman continued:
Who Is Disabled?
“There is a popular misconcep-
tion when we speak of @ disabled
veteran that we are speaking of
an unfortunate veteran who was
blinded in service or who suffered
the loss of an arm or a leg, or
even # finger. However, nothing
could be further from the truth
in the case of civil service, There
are few disabled veterans in civil
“!service, as we ordinarily under-
stand the word “disabled.” For
all ordinary intent and purposes,
the ‘disabled’ veteran in civil ser-
vice is not disabled at all, In
Sur|the New York City Police and
Fire Departments, there are many
hundreds of veterans who entered
these departments after the war,
and had to pass exacting mental
and physical tests against stren-
Te | UOUS opposition in order to quali-
wy | fy.” Mr, Grossman made the point

competition with veterans.”
Hard Feeling
He concluded: “Veterans and
non-veterans should come to an
understanding on the terms of the
proposed changes so that justice
will be done to all. Any proposed
amendment not satisfactory to all
groups, if submitted to the people,
will be the cause of much hard
feeling.” The Mitchell amendment
is the best compromise,” he con-
cluded,
Don’t Overlook Public
William McDonough, a long-
standing Legion member, made an
ll-point plea in favor of the
Mitchell bill, He warned that
“What the public thinks about
the Legion is important, What the
public thinks is based largely up-
on what large and small com-
mittees of the Legion say and do
publicly, The great responsibility
resting upon Legion officers bars
completely the endorsement of a
single questionable project or plan,
and particularly one that affects
the efficiency of civil government.
It was a colossal blunder to ask
the people to do something that
was to reduce the efficiency of
government.”
Mr, McDonough argued that the
Mitchell proposal is “a great im-
provement over the present pref-
erence plan,’ pore over the rival
Condon _ bill, ‘Obviously,” he
added, “when you ignore those
who indicate the highest ability
on an eligible lst and prefer
others less qualified it is bound
to reflect on the kind of service,
the people get.”
The Mitchell bill, he added, is
the one that. gives the fairest
break to veterans and non-veter-
ans,
Two State Employees
Catch Deer Law Violators
Two State employees caught
violators of the deer-hunting law
after a hot chase in Brookhaven,
Suffolk County,
The violators were seen shoot-
ing a doe with the aid of a light.
‘They tossed the doe into the rear
trunk of their car and took off at
@ high rate of speed.
After a four and a half mile
wil: | chase, Protector Christ and Shell-
fish Inspector Thilberg forced the
fugitives’ car to the side of the
road and arrested them, One ran
into the woods but was caught.
When the trunk was opened,
the doe was found still alive, de-
spite a shot wound through the
neck. It was necessary to kill it.
The men paid a $500 fine each
for violation of the new anti-deer-
Jacking law.

Candidates in Last Exams
For Steno and Typist Urged
By State to Compete Again
The State Civil Service Com-
mission held written examina~
tions last fall for Stenographer
and Typist, The performance tests
were held on December 11, It was
hoped that these examinations
could be completed and the eli-
gible lists established by January,
so that the candidates could be
advised of their standing prior to
February 19, the date of a new
series of examinations, but Presi-
dent J. Edward Conway al
nounced that it has been physi-
cally impossible.
Many candidates in those ex-
aminations are uncertain whether
or not they should file new ap-
Plications now open, for the Feb-
r 'Y written series.
“It is strongly urged that they
do this and take the written cleri-
cal tests on February 19,” sais
President Conway,
New Lists by March 26
Tt is expected that the lists re-
ulting from last month’s exam-
inations will be established before
the practical tests in stenography
and typing are again held on
March 26. In the event that any
lidate in the February written
series satisfied with the results
of his December examination for
Stenographer and Typist and does
not wish to complete the practical
ests again in March, his fee will
be refunded,
President Conway emphasized
that the February series includes
everal clerical examinations in
addition to those for Stenograph-
er and Typist. Only candidates for
Stenographer or Typist are af-
fected by the lack of information
as to the results of these same
examinations in December. Only
candidates for Stenographer or
Typist will have their fees re-
funded if they subsequently fail
to complete these examinations
by taking the practical tests in
March and prefer to stand on
the record made in the December
examinations,
The reason the new examina-
‘ions were scheduled so soon after
the December examinations is the
large number of vacancies and
he desire of the Commission to
open a new examination to high
school and business school grad-
uates of next June, Many candi-
Reclassifi
dates will want to be on both
eligible lists, anyway, but for those
who ultimately obtain appoint-
ments from the December exam~
inations and have no wish to
complete the February examina-
tions, the Commission will cancel
applications and refund fees.
Last Call to Apply
The last day to apply for the
Big Six examinations, which in-
clude Stenographer and Typist, is
Saturday, January 22. The pay is
$1,840 total for each, which in-
cludes a $240 cost-of-living ad-
justment. Five annual increments

8451, Stenographer
8452. Clerk
8453, File Clerk
8454, Account Clerk

There are no age limits, except
those imposed by law. (18 to 70
years),
No training or experience is
required for admission to any
of the examinations. The appli-
cation fee is $1 for each and one
may enter five of the six examina~
tions. Only two of the three clerk
| specialties may be selected for
cumulative application, Typist,
Steno and Clerk are cumulative
without restriction.

on Saturday, February 19.

NYC. BRIEFS
Four high jobs in the NYC Wel-
fare Department were approved
for non-competitive classification
by the State Civil Service Com-
mission, which set aside its own
previous ruling. The decision was
a victory for Welfare Commis-
sioner Hilliard, who has been
fighting to keep reorganization of
the Department in the hands of
men of his own choice. The four
jobs are in the Bureau of Wel-
fare Administration,
Forty-five new positions were
created by the Board of Estimate,
which also transferred funds for
84 merit increases and approved
the prevailing rate schedules set
by the Comptroller for positions
of Marble Setter and Lineman
and the $3,350 Climber and Pruner
pay under annual agreements,

Promised in Three Weeks
The Transit Patrolman-Correc-
tion Office-Bridge and Tunnel offi-
cer eligible list will be published
within three weeks, the NYC
Civil Service Commission an-
nounced.
The job opportunities are ex-
pected to be mainly as Correction
Officer, for which there are 50
present vacancies, and for Bridge
and Tunnel Officer, where the va-
cancies are comparable. However,
it is reported that right now there
is bnly one vacancy as Transit
Patrolman, a Board of Transporta-
tion job, and no budgetary provi-
sions for any additional jobs in
that title. A resolution was in-
troduced in the Council for more
Transit Patrolmen, to cope with
increasing acts of degeneracy in
the subways,

sufficient number of the IRT eli-
gibles accept appointment, another

Including Bonus in Base Pay
Fails to Make Any Heathen!
No move has been made by the
NYC administration to incorporate
the cost-of-living bonus into base
Pay, as some employee organiza-
tions request. The fate of that
objective appeared to be the same
as that of the requests to raise
base pay.
The declaration by Mayor Wil-
liam O'Dwyer at a conference with
all his Commissioners, that they
must keep their departmental
budgets for the 1949-50 year at
totals no higher than their ap-
Propriations in the current budg-
et, was regarded as ruling out
the incorporation project as well
as the base-pay-raise. What May-
or O'Dwyer said to his Commis-
sioners was: “If you need more
Money on one line you'll have to
take it from another.”
Since then he has held confer-
ences with representatives of em-
ployee groups, and in response to
their requests for assistance in
either of the two financial forms,
or in pension liberalization, asked:
“Where's the money coming
from?” When tax sources were
mentioned he said that the pros-
pective intome therefrom had al-
ready been allocated.
‘The incorporation of the bonus
into base pay would raise the per_
manent salaries by about $90,000-
000 a year, although involving no
additional cost to the city, except
that incurred for pensions, which
would be about $5,500,000 a year,
Such incorporation would, how-
ever, end the bogey of bonus being
taken away even in part, through
reclassification that would grad-
of grades would be advanced, af-
ter the maximum is made large
enough to cover the present ex~
cess of permanent pay over civil
service grade maximum. That
would mean no immediate actual
change in pay, a gradual lifting
of the minimum actual pay, and
leave the distant future of the
bonus still up in the air, although
with some indication of abolish-
proposed
sification of the clerical service,
of budgetary origin, but to be the
subject of a public hearing before
the NYC Civil Service Commission
at 2:30 P.M. on Wednesday, Jan-
uary 19. The actual pay now often
pierces the civil service grades,
ually raise pay grades during a
two-year period. The minimums
and thus requires signing pay roll
waivers of promotion rights based
on pay increases.
Motorman Promotion Test
Eligible List Will Be City-Wide;
Opportunity for 6,000 Employees
The Municipal Civil Service
Commission ordered an examina-~
tion for promotion to Motorman,
NYC Transit System. This is the
first step taken toward holding
an examination—next a proposed
advertisement will be submitted to
Budget Director Thomas J. Pat-
terson. After his approval is re-
ceived the examination will be
included promptly in the series for
receipt of applications in Febru-
ary.
The test is expected to be open
only to Surface Line Operators.
(Men in this title are the street
car conductors and the bus op-
erators), Conductors and Tower-
men.
City-wide List
Turnover isn't great in the
Motorman title, as the jobs are
coveted. Pay starts at’ $1.44 an
hour and rises to $1.59.
“Motormen seldom resign,” said
a Board of Transportation spokes-

No Appeal in Lieutenant Case
The petitioners were Patrolmen,
most of them non-veterans, seek-
ing to become Sergeants. In an-
other case Sergeants on the ell-
gible list for promotion to Lieu-
tenant (P.D.), protested a ques-
tion and woh in the Supreme
Court. The city will not appeal,
LIST NEXT MONTH
as it finds that the question or-
dered stricken out doesn’t affect
the list. The question, No. 8,
asked where an inquirer should
be sent to get a good conduct
certificate to travel im foreign
countries. The key answer was,
18th Division, Police Headquar-
ters, Manhattan. But the division
had moved to Brooklyn between
the time the question was devised
and the examination was given.

President Joseph A. McNamara,
of the Commission, pointed out
that nobody would be compelled
to accept the proposed titles, but
anybody could stay in his present
title, if he preferred. One benefit
stressed by the Budget Bureau was
the opportunity for Pruners and
Climbers becoming Gardeners
when they grow older,
On behalf of the Budget Bu-
reau, it was stated that none of
the men was required to accept
the annual agreement, which pro-
vided for the maximum number
of working days and thus provided
the maximum annual return and
steady work,
The employees complained that
their objection was that unless
they did sign the agreement, the
number of their working days
would be reduced, hence their in-
come.
The protesting delegation was
backed up by an imposing array
of prominent labor leaders, most-
ly AFL and Civil Service Forum.
About 2,500 employees are af-
fected by the proposed reclassi-
fication.

then we added ‘up the value of ail’ the letters in the
names of these four objects (using the table of letter
values given for the Official Puzzle) and found the
total was 467 points. Next, we filled in these four
names in the four shaded paths and then added 10
extra letters which gave us 3 extra words: GLOOM
+. HARBOR . . . BUILD, These 10 extra lettors
which we had filled into the white squares had a total
value of 181 points, thus giving us a total score of
648 points when added to the letters we had filled
waded squares.
‘Then we tried again, and with some thought we
changed our 10 extra letters nnd got three different
extra words, as you can see in Dingram No. 2.
Changed GLOOM to CLAIM, HARBOR to HORROR
and BUILD to BUGLE. We thus attained a total of
210 points for the 10 extra letters we filled into the
white spaces, giving ourselves a total score of 677.
Of course these are only two possible solutions and
perhaps we might have done even better by shuffling
the four identified names around
shaded letter paths. Now, if you g
