US. OFFERS BIG PAY
TO BUSINESSMEN

Govt Will Pay Up To $7,128 a Year
To Men With Business Background

ANOTHER YEAR

Announcement of the total figures for the Executive
Budget of New York City by Budget Director Joseph J.
Patterson late last week, didn't carry a very cheerful note

Here's the big chance for smart, eapable businessmen
to get into Government service? at jobs up to $7,128 a
year, The second regional office of the United States Civil
Service Commission last week issued a call for employees
in these titles: Business Analyst, Industrial Specialist,
Materials Redistribution Analyst, Priority Analyst, Statis-
tical Analyst, Economie Analyst, Price* Analyst, Price
Economist, Price Specialist, Rationing Representative, Ra-
tioning Officer, Salvage Representative, Wage Rate An-
rang Research Analyst, and other positions of similar na-
ure, Pees eS
‘The jobs are open for positions

for employees of the City.

The Budget requests of the va-
tlows departments were pruned
down by Mayor LaGuardia's fi-
nancial staf! to $750,901,512.15
from $762,647,186.94, a reduction
Of $11,745.674.79 in expense for)
the fiscal year, July 1, 1944—June
80, 1945.

The cost-of-living bonus was
carried for another year on the
some basis as the six-month in-
creases which were announced
last month,

However, it was expected that
another wave of reductions would

be made by the City Council,|§

which. will probably make an ef-
fort to reduce the tax rate by)
eliminating military vacancies, |
dropping unfilled positions, and)
other similar reductions,

One of the firat departmental
heads to defend his request for
more funds was Borough Presi-
dent Edgar Nathan, Jr., of Man-
hattan, His letter is an indication
of what other departments are go-
ing to face,

The letter follows:

“The personal service budget of
this office would have shown a de-
crease of $78,726, were it not prin-
cipally for two necessary increases
mot under my control, both of
which I favor—the cost-of-living
bonus to about 865 employees and
the mandatory salary increases to
43 employees, totalling $155,507,

"Other inoreases, but in much
amalier amounts, are: $15,234 for
putting 52 per diem employees on

hours, enabling the department

$21,300 for salaries for nine ad-
ditional employees to operate an

$4600, $5600. $6500 a year (plus
overtime pay).

operation.

“$5,937 for the restoration of ap-|
propriations for the salaries of}
three men now in military service. |

“The personal service budget
totals $2,519,697.80, an increase of |
252.50.

e non-personal service total
Is $810,161, an increase of $40,620.
Since the Office of the*President |
of the Borough of Manhattan is|
engaged largely in maintenance
and repair work, we are hard hit
by the increased unit cost of near-
ly everything we buy,

“The total budget is $2,892,-
858,80, an increase of $159,878.50.
The bonus, the increments and
the military restoration account
for more than this increase,

Vacant Jobs Dropped

“In making up the budget I
have assumed, as the Mayor sug-
gested, that the war will not be
over before June 30, 1945, the end
of the new budget period, In sub-
ordinating everything to the war
effort, consistent with the preven-
tion of waste and injury, the scope
of services has been curtailed,
thirty vacant positions have been
dropped and other economies
made, If the budget were cup fur-
ther, the necessary work required
even in war time would be seri-
ously impaired,"

The standard Federal work-
week of 48 hours includes eight
hours of required overtime, The
increase in compensation for
overtime amounts on an annual
basis to approximately 21 per cent
of the basic salary not in excess
of $2,900 a year. For the $2600
grade. annual overtime pay
amounts to approximately $563
For higher grade positions, an-
nual overtime pay amounts to
approximately $628,

If_you rely on the statement,
you'll pay extra tax next March
15,

If you reject it, however, you
stand to save a yery substantial
sum—probably about $20 for the
average employee,

That applies only to Navy per
annum workers—150,000 of them.
It doesn't apply to per diem em-
ployees, Their earnings statement
are correct—exactly as submitted
by the Navy. .

Behind It All

Here is what has happened:

In preparing 1943 earnings
statements for per annum em-
ployees tax purposes, Navy includ-
ed one 1944 pay day—that of Jan-
uary 5 for workers outside Wash-
ington, Effect of this was to credit
these employees with 24 pay days
during the year—when, actually,
they had only 23.

It not only was incorrect. The
chances are it also probably was
illegal, Tae law says flatly that
1943 earnings statements should
include only salaries ACTUALLY
PAID during 1943.

And very obviously, the money
delivered in the pay check of Jan.

during 1943.

Navy Department hasn't yet ex-
plained this situation to employ-
ees, There is some indication,
however, that it"probably will do

ever,

is what Internal Revenue

Navy's White Collar Employees ‘Stuck’
With Extra Payday—For Income Tax!

By CHARLES SULLIVAN
WASHINGTON—Memo to Navy white collar work-

Navy Department has included an extra pay day and
extra income on your 1948 earnings statement!

Y Barcinsncrsen) if you wish, you can

submit an income report

based on only 23 pay days.

I ah must, however, include
withholding tax and Victory

tax aspera ged as reported

to you by 1 javy.

thet is true even though these
deductions are based on 24

pay days instead of a proper 23.

What If Adds Up To

Now the net result of that will
be that your revised tax return
will be based on 23 pay days and
24 withholding tax periods.

On that basis, therefore, the
tax you pay March 15 actually
will be less than you would have
paid had Navy given you a per-
fectly legal earnings statement.

Probably that sounds fantastic.
But it happens to be true. THE
CIVIL SERVICE LEADER'S cor-
respondent has checked and
double-checked the facts with the
Washington headquarters office of
Internal Revenue. And unless In-
ternal Revenue changes its mind
—which is hardly probable—you
can rely on them as absolutely
correct,

Some of your Navy superiors
may suggest you that youll be

better off to pny extra tax this)

year. ‘That, however, cefinitely
is not the best advice,

Your tax next year will be ex-
actly the same — regardless of
whether you pay extra tax this
year or not. The CIVIL SERVICE
LEADER has checked and double-
checked that fact, too.

thing will come out all right in

War Service Appointment j

Criticized by

An extension of prefer-
ence to veterans in making
appointments to Federal
Civil Servi is inevitable
after the war, Representa-|
tive Robt. Ramspeck (Dem.,
Ga.), chairman of the House |
Civil Service Committee de-
clared last week in a talk
given before the faculty, |
students and alumni of the
New York University Grad-
uate Division for Training in
Public Service.

Representative Ramspeck pre-
dicted: “Tt may even be necessary
to follow the practice adopted in
some countries and set
aside certain Federal jobs exclu-
sively for veterans, However, I am
not one of those now holding that
civil service appointments will
have to make way for veterans.”

service appointments to the civil
service have been made and ad-
vocated an early return to com-
petitive examinations for filling
all positions, This will be possible,
he said because, as a result of the
activities of his committee, the
number of persons employed by
the Pederal government is now
decreasing.

“Since July 1943, approximate-
ly 215,000 inbs have been elimin-
ated.” Mr. Ramspeck said. “Of
these 150,000 represent reductions

Ramspeck

made by the War Department, —

principally in the Army Service
Forces. The Navy is now working
on similar plans and I believe
that further reductions of persons
nel will be made shortly.”
College Education Not Enough
“A college education without _
experience does not fit a man for
& government job.” Mr.
declared, “Under the administra-
tion of Leon Henderson, the OPA
was employing two thousand
young lawyers who have never
had a client and who had never
tried a case in court, Ninety per
cent of Henderson's lawyers had
no business writing regulations,
Lawyers are not made in schools
of law. They are mraie in the give
and take of the court room, and
until a man has had-that exper-
fence he has no business in gove
ernment service.”

About Crusaders ?
Mr, Ramspeck said that the
government ought not to employ
people who have been identified
with crusades objectionable to the
majority of the people. He also
criticized executives in the gov~
ernment who are not willing
get rid of iIncompetents.
“They don't use the probation~
ary period as it should be used,"*
Mr, Ramspeck added, stating that

;
:
,
:

he had met many heads of Pederal

agencies who were so ignorant of
the Civil Service Act that they
did not know they could discharge
incompetent employees without |
recourse to Iaw.”

‘Non-Hazardous’ Jobs

ALBANY—A bill was introduced
in the State Legislature today
amending the workmen's compen-

basic coverage for New York City
employees, by Assemblyman John
Lamula (R., N.Y.)

At, present clerical employees in
the City of New York engaged In
theoretical non-hazardous occupa-

clerks, are not covered by the

injuries on the job, they may or

years ago, an investigator of the
Department of Welfare was killed
in Harlem. His family received no
compensation, except for the re-

would have recelved from ten to

Male vs. Female

Nine male ape i stockimen
in the NYC Board of Transporta-
tion came to the City Civil Ser-

vice Commigsion last week with a
compinint, went home with-
out any satisfaction.

Here's what happened:

The Commission ordered an ex-
amination for Stock Assistant, in
the Board of Transportation, but
opened the test only to women,

‘The men who are holding the
Jobs on a provisional basis, felt
that they were unfairly discrim-
inated against and asked that the
test be opened to men,

The Commission denied their
request on the grounds that there
are a large number of male elig-
ibles for the position in the armed
forces, and it would be unfair to
them to open the test to men,

After the test is given cad the
list of women candidates promul-
gated, the men provisionals will
be discharged and repinced by
permanent women appointees,

The campaign of the Board of
T get women
drivers for the trolleys in Brook-
lyn seems to be successful,
Among a recent batch of ap-
pointees to Street Car Operator
jobs at 75 cents an hour appeared
the folhowing non-masculine
names

Catherine Childress, Mary Hoey,
Bertha Myrick, Marguerite Wal-
Jace and Annie Ware,

Retirement
At 55, 60, 66

State Senator Seymour Hal-
pern, Chairman of Senate Com-
mittee on Civil Service, Inst week
introduced a bill In the legisla-
ture to correct a peculiar condi-
tion that has arisen by the unifi-
cation of the LR.T, and BMT.
transit facilities.

When these utilities were ac-
quired by the City of New York
the employees of the private cor-
poration were covered into Civil
service by virtue of the Wicks
Act of 1939. When the unifica-
tion contract was signed, the City
agreed to provide sufficient funds
to pay pensions that such em-
ployees were entitled to receive at
age 65 ns if the private corpora-
tlons continued to operate the
IR.T. and BMT. lines, These
Pensions covered service only
prior to 1937, at which time such
employees were covered by the
Social Security Act.

Upon becoming civil service |
employees, the former 1.R.T, and
BMT. employees became mem-

~ bers of the New York City retire-
ent system. Under the New York
City retirement system these em-
ployees are entitled to retire at
‘age 55 or 60 depending upon their
Selection. However, if they retire
at age 55 or 60, they lose their
Tight to the additional B.M.T. or |
LRT, pension because of their
retirement before age 65. The

Halpern bill will allow the former
B.M-T. and LR.T, employees who
are now civil service employees
to receive the private Company

Veteran Subway
Employee Retires

Henry A. Brandis of 679 Jetfer~
fon Ave., Brooklyn, the only engi-
neering Instrument repairman in
the city’s subway service, was ten~
dered a luncheon Inst week in the
Villa Adriana restaurant in Van

tion from which he retired with a
pension on his 76th birthday. Mr,
Brandis had been granted annual
extensions beyond the 70 years’
age limit only because of his un-
usual vigor, activity and general
good health. His record for con-
sistent attendance, punctuallt
and efficiency in his work is with-
out parallel in city service,

Mr. was presented with
an engrossed testimonial which
depicted his 16 years of technical }
service, Maintenance and servic-
ing of precision engineering in-
struments Js the only type of work
he has ever done, having started
as an apprentice boy in his fath-
er’s instrument shop in Brooklyn,
His pension will be about $939 a

and not age. His salary was $2500
@ year,

Raises for 150

One hundred and fifty train dis
patehers and 3 assistant super-
visors in the New York City Board |
of Transportation received salary
increases last week—subject to
approval by the City Civil Service
Commission,

The new salary schedules for |
the train dispatchers provide «|
starting salary of $2,940 for pro- |
visional appointees and $3,060 for |

After one year, they advance to
$3,180 and the next year to $3,240.

The former title of “B" train)
dispatcher was eliminated. This
will allow the dispatchers to ad-
vance by annual increments in-
stead of having to walt for a vac-
ancy in the “B" class,

‘The three assistant supervisors,
after completing one year of ser-
vice in that title, were raised from |
$3,480 to $3,600,

The new scale for train dis-
patchers means an increase of $40
to the men concerned effective
March 1, 1944, and $180 more in
the next 2 years.

An examination for the ot
-engineman was given by the
NYC Civil Service in

1934. It must have been a pretty
tough exam, because out of the
16,000 who participated, only
2,224 passed.

‘The eligible list was established,

Then in 1936 and 1937, the Pire
Department made appointments,
Although the examination had
announced that this post would
pay $1,860 @ year, the men were
offered positions with the Fire De-
partment at $1,500.
By now, they've reached the sal-
ary of $1,080, through annual in-
erements provided by the Mc-
Carthy Law, However, they look
around and see auto-engineman in
other departments earning
tween_$2,400 and $3,200.

‘They can't understand Aad they
shouldn't be raised to $2,400, too,
and be given a chance for further
advancement to higher pay.

Men Want $2,500;
Chicago Pays $4,000;
NYC Offers $2,000

‘The NYC Civil Service Commis-
sion is attempting to reclassify
the Fire Dispatchers, men who
work in the control rooms of the
Fire Department, routing the ma-
chines of the department to

answer alarms.

After a public hearing held last
week, the Commission withheld
action, pending conferences with
the Budget Bureau,

A group of these dispatchers
appeared at the hearing to pro-
test their proposed classification
at a starting salary of $2,000,

Jobs Involve Safety
They asked at least $2,500,

volved the safety of many lives
when fire strikes, and that their
work calls for high skill. Now,
men working on the job are earn-

Spokesmen for Local 61, Ameri-

numerically smaller fire depart-
ment, men performing this work

POLICE CALLS “

PBA Faces Its Problems Now

Two irfiportant controversial
questions were discussed at the
February PBA meeting,

‘The first question is: "What
shall the PBA do about the fi-
nancial problem with which it is
faced?” Tt has been no secret that
the vast number of retirements
from the department resulting in
hundreds of policemen applying
for their cash benefits have re-
sulted in a great drain on the
PBA treasury. The situation is
aggravated by the lack of new
appointments, Counting those on
military leave, the PBA has about
3,000 members less than It would
have if the department were up
to its quota,

Two alternative solutions were
Proposed at the meeting. One
‘was to increase the monthly dues
from one dollar to one dollar and
® quarter for first grade patrol-
men. The other proposal was that
cash benefits be reduced. Both
Suggestions were discussed, but
no action was taken. The prob-
lem was referred to @ committee
for its study and report at the
next meeting.

‘This financial situation ts sim-
ilar, in some respects, to the one
that almost every endowment or-
ganization in the department has
had to face. Some of the other
Organization postponed a realistic
survey of thelr problem until they
were insolvent. The PBA is fac-
ing it now, years before there is
any likelihood of insolvency. By
facing the problem boldly now,
disaster will be averted. The or-
ganization is acting wisely in
acting now.

These are the questions’ which
the PBA will have to answer in
order to évaluate properly the
problem confronting it: How
Many members are eligible for
retirement now? How many will
become eligible for retirement
each year? How many of those
eligible for retirement can be ex-
pected to do so? How much
Money must be set aside each
year for each member to off-set
future obligations?

Tn the event some adjustment
is deemed necessary, the question
will arise whether the adjustment
shall be made by increasing dues
or by decreasing cash benefits, It
is safe to predict in that event,
that the PBA will be split into
two camps. The men who will be-
come eligible for retirement with-
in the next few years will favor
increasing the dues so as to as-
suite them their full cash benefit
upon retirement. The younger
men, however, will probably op-
pose an increase in dues and
favor cutting the benefits.

The settlement of this dispute
will determine the whole futare
of the PBA. Will it become pri-
marily an endowment organiza-
tion or will it remain a police-
man’s union with incidental cash
benefit?

Working With Pension Group

Pat Harnedy, PBA President,
told the delegates that it was his
intention to set up a joint com~-

representatives of the Pension
Forum to study the whole pen-
sion problem and to recommend
@ solution. It was for the purpose
of obtaining the delegates’ ap-
proval of this agreement with the
Pension Forum and of authoris-
ing necessary expenditures for the
purpose of making the pension
survey that Harnedy broached the
subject, Many of the delegates
were resentful of the new organi-
zation, but recognized the justice
of the claims ef the young patrol-
men, and agreed with Harnedy
that the pension problem simply
had to be faced as one of the
most important before PBA,

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

MEMBER AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS

Tuesday, February 29, 1944

Three Matters
Requiring Attention

T HERE are three subjects we'd like to discuss this

week. “

First on the list is the case for merit awards to
State employees. The measure, which has already been fully
described in The LEADER, was this week introduced in the
State Senate by Senator Halpern and Assemblyman Oster-
tag. How important employee incentives are, in practice, is
obvious from this quotation in a letter written by a Fed-
eral official.

“There is no’ question in our minds that the time and
money spent in connection with the suggestion program has
been time and money well spent ... we receive a surprising
number of suggestions which are of substantial importance.
I have on my desk at the present time one suggestion which
will save $240,000 at one Navy Yard alone, and which was
disseminated and used in eight or ten Navy Yards ... Briefly
stated, savings directly attributable to suggestions submitted
under the program run into millions of dollars annually. In
our opinion, it is a very important program not only from
the standpoint of dollars saved, but from the standpoint of
getting war jobs done quicker and better, and in improving
morale,”

D. E. CARLSON, Action Officer, Board of Awards
United States Navy Department, in a letter to the
Association of State Civil Service Employees,

There, pragmatically, in terms of experience, you have
the answer to the importance of incentives for Government
employees,

Governor Dewey has frequently spoken of the desirability
of incentives in Government service. The Halpern-Ostertag
bill seems to us the kind of good-government measure upon
whose desirability all can agree—employees, administrators,
legislators, and Governor. We suggest its quick passage, in
order to release at the egrliest possible moment the reservoir
of ideas, suggestions, and good works with which the State
service is certainly pregnant.

The New York City Council, Board of Estimate and
Mayor ought to take similar action.

Unemployment Insurance

NEXT SUBJECT on our list is the proposed extension of
unemployment insurance to cover State employees. We find
that, on the whole, State officials tend to be cordial to the
principle. Charles Breitel, Counsel to the Governor, is known
to be favorably disposed. So is Milton O. Loysen, Chief of
the Division of Placement and Unemployment Insurance,
The Budget Bureau is at least open-minded. There are sev-
eral bills now before the Legislature, Most likely to pass is
the Halpern-Ehrlich bill, No one has raised any objection
to the bill—yet, If it fails to pass, it will be only because
somebody is worried about the financing,

Proponents of the bill must quickly gather this data: How
much is it likely to cost? How many employees are separated
from their job in an average year? How much of an appro-
priation is needed to administer the measure? As to cost,

+ best information is that it’s likely to be small. The bil) itself
can be amended to include the necessary appropriation. Or,
a supplementary budget appropriation may be put in later
during the session, Or, as a matter of fact, it is even possible
to go along with no appropriation this year; in that case,
any benefits payable during the coming year would be ad-
vanced by the Division, and reimbursement would not be
requested until next year's budget.

This is the sort of bill which the Legislature Committee
on Industrial and Labor conditions (Ives Committee) could
well get behind,

There doesn’t seem to be any compelling reason why the
administration shouldn't put ite official OK on the unem-
ployment insurance bill, which would provide for public em-
ployees the same protection now enjoyed by workers in
private industry, Now is the time to settle a problem that
wil! become important after the war years,

t The Matter of Pay

‘THIRD ON OUR LIST is a piece about the salary sched-
ules of State employees, But Lan ogy is already done for
us, in Harold J, Fisher's column “The State Employee,” page
9. Fisher's article is so packed full of facts that it becomes
recommended reading for every employee and official. Em-
ployees would be wise in Solowing Paha suggestion that
they let legislators and Governor know how they feel about

Dewey Data (Cont,)

During the sriiggle by
Dewey and Bennett for i ip
spot in New York State's Govern
ment, a group of men came to see
Bernard Baruch, They were Li
to “prove” that Dewey was anti
semitic. Baruch gazed ag his visi-
tors a long time. Then he rove tw
his full 6" 2” majesty, and pierced
them with a glance that can only
be described as dignity encased in
leashed fury. “I'm a “4
he So Jew, 1 ars orn

jor the past 5 years,
know his wews and his work on
that very question, He has no
antisemitiom in him. If you men
aver let loose such a statement ax
you have made to me today, I shall
come out publicly for the elec
tion of Mr. Dewey.” .. , When
Dewey took over the office of Man-
hattan District Attorney, he told
his staf}: “No borrowing man to
mon, If you need money, come to
me.” Many of them did. He helped
them. ... One reason for the effi-
ciency of the Governor's maf ix
that he himself

steuth under Dewey in the D.Als

office. Irving used to tell this
sory: “Once Dewey was attending
@ convention upstate and he hap-
pened to bump into me and anothe
er investigator. "Gat off your back-
aide und back to Saratogu to watch
your witness!" he ordered, And,”
Burst would mournfully add, “we
weren't €1 are he knew about
business of be-
in jitically affable” with peo-
ple didn't come easily to Dewey.
He had to learn it the hard way,
Example: During the campaign
trip in his 1938 gubernatorial
fight, Dewey's train stopped at
several litle hamlets. The Repub»
Hican candidate had to get up each
time and address the litle grow
of people gathered around the
back of the train to greet him,
Dewey would make his little talk,
turn around, and walk back into
his car, His associates kept telling
him: ‘Wave your hand to them
‘afteg you finish your talk,” And
Dewey would respond, with great
seriousness: “But I have to get
buck to work.” He was utilising
his travelling time to prepare a
campaign speech, It didn't occur
to him that the hand-waving might
be quite ad important as the words
he spoke. Finally, at one station,
after he hod give:
turned around to go, as met
by @ phalanx of his associatas who
refused to let him pass. He got
the idea then, turned back to the
crowd, aul waved while they
cheered. “That's the tcay
hos to leurn these
ments one of his adviser
once he learna, h
how 10 put the mn
use. . ©. In the old Woo
Building days, Dowey once walk
into the office of his chief clerk
and found — horrors! —a large
froup ‘of the boys playing poker.
‘here was a mod scramble to dash
out or hide, Dewey saved the sit-
uation for his men by inquiring, in
a kindly voice: “May I take @
hand?” . .

The State
Employee

By HAROLD J, FISHER

President, Th» Association of
State Civil Service Employees

In writing “The State Employee” a a regular weekly feature of The
LEADER, Harold J. Fisher will discuss all and any matters of interest to

of the State of New York. He is writing this column with com
leeway to express his own views.
Mr. Fisher has had long experience in the problems of State Govern
which he understands from the inside. Today Finance Officer of the
went of State, he began his career 32 yours ago as a page boy in the
wary of State’s office. For the past 13 years he has been active in the
irs of the State Association, und is now President of that organization.
LEADER feels that Mr. Fisher's contributions will go fer towerd em
Nightening employees. administrators and legislators.

below the honest demands of a people at war,
‘The Association of State Civil Service Employees, on the basis
OP! such and other pertinent facts, has called directly upon Executive
‘Legisintive leaders to correct the situation. I wish every State
ployee to know that your Association leaders have asked the
and the Legislature to increase the emergency war bonus
from 10% to 15% on the first $2,000 and to establish, instead of a
(Zi% bonus on salaries from $2,000 to $3,975 as at present, a 10%
on all salaries above $2,000 but not to include that portion
$4,000. Also, the Association has asked definitely that employees
Judiciary and of the Legislature be included in all war emer-
y adjustments. Any faflure to grant the higher emergency
justment, rests, therefore, not with employees of the State who
30,000 strong through the Association, but with the Governor
@nd the Legisiature who contro! the policy and the appropriations.
Employees know and the Governor and the Legislature know the

Holtowing facts:

‘THE COST OF LIVING has increased over 1938, when Peld-
Hamilton scales were established, by at least 25%. In other words,
purchasing power of a $2,000 salary has been reduced $500 and the
hasing power of # $4,000 salary has been reduced $1,000 by the
in the cost of living. When Feld-Hamilton scales were adopted,
' workers were greatly underpaid and had been for years. The
amaximum of the Feld-Hamilton scales are, of course, the basic scales,
approach to the maximum is a sound plan but one which favors
employer by relieving of payment of the maximum or basic scales
n when the worker has reached his maximum of efficiency,
Wages in war industry have risen by more than 50% in this
od.

‘TATE WORKERS, prior to January, 1939, were not required
to pay # Federal income tax. This fact was recognized by the
te and Was an acknowledged factor in the establishment of Feld~

tlton scales and, tn fact, in the establishment of all pay scales
many years prior to the establishment of such scales, Today, the

“Siwie worker pays a substanijal part of his income to the Federal

vernment where he paid nothing before 1939, His $2,000 salary is,
refore, reduced approximately $200; and his $4,000 salary is reduced

, $800—in addition to the $500 and $1,000 reductions referred to, This

j aed up to a total of $700 and $1,600, respectively, The meager

amount left accounts for the serious plight of many State workers

Proday.

i IT IS READILY APPARENT that the adjustments of 10 and

7\4% granted employees for the fiscal year beginning last

Ast, were not arrived at through any scientific study to adjust

ri y the income of the employees of the State of New York to a

“war economy. They were adopted hastily as an emergency measure

the last day of the Legislative session by agreement of the Governor

the Legislature, and they were measured by and based upon

imates of expected lapses from unused personal service’ appro-

tions in the regular budget, In other words, the many employees

on the job, by increased effort and hours unrewarded otherwise by

time, earned very largely the 10 and 74:% emergency increases

/ Without any additional money having been appropriated for higher

‘wages because of higher living costs and higher taxes, The adjust-

Pmrents were sorely needed then and the partial relief was appreciated

‘THE PRESENT high cost of living Is quite certain to be main~

and it seems probable that it will increase, oyer a number of

‘s. The effect will be to drive many efficient workers from State

‘ice and to make it unattractive to now workers of ability, It is

istinctly displeasing to be thus critical of the war wage labor policy

ot the State of New York. Budgeting authorities have disregarded

‘the simple facts of increases in cost of living and increases in taxes

ferred to above. No amount of mathematical manipulation can
ainsay this fact. e

WE HAVE COME to the period in Legislative planning for the |

Drive Planned to Cover State Employees
Under Unemployment Insurance Law

ALBANY—So far as DPUI is concerned, the Halpern
bill extending unemployment insurance benefits and cover-

age to State employees is not objectionable, and so far as

been passed.

‘This is the status of the pro-
posal this week, with adjourn-
ment of the Legislature expected
in less than three weeks,

‘The measure would bring all
State workers under the benefits
of unemployment insurance, the
same as employees in private in-
dustry. Thus, if an employee
should lose his job, he would have
his unemployment insurance to
fall back on.

Backed by the support of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees, State Senator Sey-
mour Halpern hopes to obtain en-
actment of the bill at the present
session.

Loysen Is For It

Milton O. Loysen, State Direc-
tor of the Division of Unemploy-
ment Insurance, sald:

“We helped to draft the bill,

eral Social Security people and
they are quite willing for us to go

John E. Burton, director of the
Budget, sald: “The bill has not
come to my attention, We have
an open mind on it.”

Money drawn from the Unem-
ployment Insurance Fund to meet
benefit payments under the bill
would be reimbursed from time to
time from the general fund of the
State, The State would pay only

themselves.

BATTLE OF THE LETTERS
Last week's LEADER contained excerpts from a letter which
Capt. Maurice Neufeld, formerly Deputy Commerce
had written anent the Harvey dismissal, In his affidavit to the

‘There comes a time in the
life of every reporter when
the task before him looms
just too big. It was this state
of sad desolation that hit
your present scribe when we
first cast eyes upon the
mighty collection of paper
which goes by the name of a
“return,” legal brief Pre-
pared by Dr. Martin P, Cath-
erwood, State Commissioner
of Commerce, in his en-
deavor to prove how right
he waa in firing Mrs. Helen
L. Harvey, a Principal Sten-
ographer in his division. We
told you a little about the
origins of the case last week,

Mrs, Harvey, you will remem-
ber, had been 11 years in the
employ of New York State, had
maintained an excellent record,
and she wasn’t taking the dis-
missal lying down. Hence the
Battle of the Legal Briefs, For
Mrs. Harvey took her case to the

rail,

Mrs, Harvey characterizes the
variegated Catherwood complaints
against her in three categories:
“(1) charges based on half-truths;
(2) charges that were wholly false
and (3) buildups or distortions of
essentially trivial incidents.” Her
legal brief submitted to the Al-
bany Supreme Court, in reply to
the yast and formidable Cather-
wood verbiage, refers to the Com-
missioner’s document as a series
of “build-ups.”

The Stenographic Guide

Catherwood used as one of the
bases for firing Mrs. Harvey, a
group of alleged errors in the
Stenographic Guide, a book pre-
pared by Mrs. Harvey to ald
stenographers and typists In
Division of Commerce, This book,
by the way, wasn’t an assignment,
‘Mrs. Harvey prepared it on her
own initiative, This reporter
looked over the errors marked by
Catherwood, and frankly, we had
a good Isugh. If newspaper re-
porters or magazine writers were
to be judged on the basis of such
errors as condemned Mrs. Harvey
—why, you just wouldn't be read-
ing newspapers and magazines,
for there wouldn't be any report-
ers or writers,

For example, 16 of the alleged
errors are based on the presump-
tion that it’s wrong to place com~-
mas and periods outside of quo-
tation marks, Now, newspapermen
and grammarians are always argu-
ing about which method is better
—not which is right, for gram-
marions consider either method
aeceptable. And Mrs, Harveys has
gone on to select a list of users
who prefer the “outside” method.
‘The list includes the U, 8. State
Department, the U. 8, Printing
Office, and the Oxford University
Press, As for the New York State
Attorney General, he uses both
methods, tsk, tsk, tak.

Meticulous Doctor Catherwood,
the schoolteachers’ delight, con-
demned Mrs, Harvey for the
manner in which she records cer-
tain instructions relating to the
tise of dictaphone and telegrams.
“But,” Mrs. Harvey replies, “the
criticized material is taken word
for word from material published
hy the Dictaphone Company and
by Western Union and Postal
‘Telegraph,” She even incorporated
Suggestions made by these com-

ies, ;

Continues the lady: “I have
freely admitted that I overlooked
® few errors in the mimeograph-
ing of this booklet, but the actual
errors in the entire 59 pages are
fewer than the errors in the
‘eorrections’ made by the defend-
ant (Catherwood).”

‘The Good Friday Incident

The now-famous ‘broccoli vs.
“waster eggs for the Commissioner’
episode results from a charge by
Catherwood that Mrs, Harvey
took a half-day on Good Friday
to attend church, and then didn't
Use the half-day for that pur-

classification of Principal Stenographer was such as to make the
assignment of these duties more appropriate, There was also con-
siderable resistance by Mrs. Harvey to any reorganization of ad-

duties in which she was then engaged, This reorganiza’

of the stenographic pool and the development of an accounting unit.

Originally, Catherwood had written to Capt. Neufeld, in Sicily,
telling him about the Harvey dismissal, Catherwood and
in addition to being working associates, were also good personal
friends, But Neufeld’s letter had apparently not been what Cather-
wood wanted. Neufeld wrote! “I think Helen deserved better treat-

Mrs .Harvey then continues by
insisting that Miss Lowry knew
she was on her way to Schenec-
tady, where she lives. Neverthe-
less, the legal brief contends,
“there is an attempt to create the
impression that I wis on an ex-
tensive shopping tour by her
statement that I was ‘laden with
bundles.’ I actually had one bun-
dle—broccoli for supper.”

In answer to the contention,
contained in good Doctor Cather-
wood's voluminous verbiage: that
the two women had met ‘about
the middie of the church service,’
the former Principal Stenogra-
pher says: “In the church which
T attend... . the services start
at, or shortly before three o'clock.
They consist of the Stations of
the Cross followed by Veneration
of the Cross. The period before
the Stations of the Cross is a per-
|iod of silence, prayer ‘and medi-
tation, which some persons attend
and others do not, It is my prac-
tice and the practice of many
others of my faith to reach church
in time to attend the Stations of
the Cross... . and I did so on
the Good Friday in question,”

Lowry Denies It

In private conversations, it ts
reported, Miss Lowry denies the
story of the Easter eggs, She de-
seribes her meeting with Mrs,
Harvey ‘as perfunctory, and con-
fined to little more than a cold
greeting.

Mrs, Harvey, in her statement
to the court, contends, however;
that with no other basis of evi-
dence Commissioner Catherwood
“did not hesitate, six months
later, to make the intemperate
charge... ."

The Commissioner's words, tn
the charge referred to, are these;

“You had falsely stated your
need for the half-day, and your
self-declared holiday had not
been used for the purposes of re-
gious observances in Schenec-
tady.”

Mrs, Harvey bitterly remarks:

Mrs. Harvey answers by citing
the name of one girl in the Pool
who remained the entire after-

girls of the Pool “did return to
the office and, finding few péople
there and little, if any, work to

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Municipal, State, and Federal Employees Should Know These Facts

Here's How the New York State Legislature Works;
The Full Story--As A Young Legislator Might Write It

The 201 members (160
Assemblymen, 51 Senators),
represent the voice of de-
mocracy at work. New York-
ers like to think of their
Legislature as the most
progressive, far-sighted, and
most truly representative of
the people in the entire na-
tion.

A comparative record, over the
years, Indicates this is probably
so, but again, every once in a
while the Legisiature has a lapse
when it enacts some measure, or
takes some step negative In char-
acter, that emphasizes the par-
versity of human nature and
polities.

Most of the members are law-
yers. There is a scattering of in-
surance men, farmers, bankers,
business men, publishers, The no-
tion is that Jawyers get further,
faster in the Legislature, But this
is not always so, The Assembly
majority (Ives) and minority
(Steingut) leaders, for Sneanee,|
are not lawyers but Insurance men,

At the Beginning

The Parties |
If your young legisiator belongs
to the minority party his chances
of getting any controversial or
important legislation passed is
mighty slim, If he has a good
idea, the chances are that the
bill will be duplicated by some
member of the majority party,
and enacted. As he grows older
in legislative service he will cher-
ish the friendships of his asso-
clates wherein he will discover

| that party lines mean nothing, He

will occasionally get a bill through,
| even if he is in the minority, but
he learns eventually that his
| friends of the opposition—the ma-
jority—can give him everything
but votes, and without votes he
can't do much,

his bills are getting nowhere in

Samuel 8. Goodman, a Mort-

Yark County Register’s office ap-
plied to the Court for a “show
cause” order in which he asked
that he receive the 744 percent
cost-of-living bonus which was
distributed to State employees,
which would apply to his salary
of- $3,241 a year,

In his petition, he pointed out
that his job consisted of collect-
ing funds which went to the
State treasury, that he received
his paychecks from the State, and
considered himself a State em~-
ployee,

of the committee. The committee,
which usually meets two or three
or more times during the session,
passes on every proposal referred
to it, A majority vote of the
members is required to kill or
report a measure. The first couple
of committee meetings are usually
devoted to cleaning out the im~-
possible — those bills obvlousky
headed for the ashcan, the peren-
nials that come in year after year,
but never get anywhere, and the
bills that are introduced by 4
legislator—tongue in cheek—for
local effect or because some con-
stituent demanded it.

When the committee begins con-
sideration of “the possibles”, vari-
ous elements arise, For their
guidance, the members have piles
of literature, letters, telegrams,
for and against. These make the
boys think. The political aspeots
have an important bearing, for the
legislation may advante or dam-
age the party in power or it may
adversely affect a single legislator
of the majority party.

When the Legislature and the
Governor are of opposite parties,
the Legislature {s apt to pass many
proposals doubtful or admittedly
bad in the public interest, The
Legislature hopes thus to embar-
rags the Governor who is con-
scientious enough to veto those
Proposals. But, as now, when both
the Chief Executive and the Legis-
lature are of the same party, the
effort is t harmonize their view-
points in advance on legislative
proposals, The bulk of the ma-
jority members in the Legislature

Battle on the Floor

If the young legislator gets his
bills out of committee he next
battles for their passage on the
floor of the house of which he ts

league in the other house will be
successful also, In more than 90
per cent of the cases if the bill
gets out of committee and the
party leaders are for it, the young
leginlator's worries are over, Party
votes will put it over, In the other
cases, the legislator has to fight
for it and sometimes he prevails

Orphan of the Bonus;
NYC, State Won't Pay Him

An orphan of the bonus appeared before Justice

which were left out of the recent
salary adjustment which went to
other New York City depart-
ments.)

He also clted court decisions to
show that employees of upstate
County offices who did almilar
work were included in the State
Service,

Tracing his history with the
Regiuter'g office, Mr, Goodman

Many of the legislators work with
lobbyists, If the job is to convince
the other members and particu-
larly the party leaders that the
proposed legislation is desirable,
the legislator talks with his col-
leagues. When that fails he aug-
gests that those others interested
in his bill see the Jeaders and try
to clear the way. Almost every-

addressed, was represented before
Justice O'Brien by the State At-

The State admitted that Mr.
Goodman was paid by State funds
and did collect money which went
to the State, but insisted that the
act of the Legislature which pro-
vided payment of salaries in the

@ means of relmbursing the Gity
for work which it was doing for
the State, and that it was never
meant to transfer employees from
the County Registers to the State
Civil rolls,

As The LEADER went to preas,
the papers were atill on Judge
O'Brien's desk, but a decision was
expected in a short time,

State Assn. Asks
Dewey to Disapprove
Exam Notice Bill

ALBANY—The Association of
State Civil Service Employees has
asked the State Civil Service Com~
mission to appeal to the Governor
to withhold approval of a bill
which the Commission itself spon-
sored,

Here’s the story of this curious
situation,

In_the February issue of The
LEADER, the Association was
quoted in opposition to a bill (As-
sembly Int, 654, Print 676) which
repealed provisions for giving no-
tice of open competitive examina~
tion for vacant positions within a
department. It was pointed out
that there Js no satisfactory way
in many cases to determine
whether or not present employees
are available for promotion un-
less there is notice given that an
open competitive examination is
contemplated,

The law at present provides
that notice of request for open
competitive examination shall be
bublicly and conspicuously posted
in the office of the appointing of-
ficer and in the office of the Civil
Service Commission, and shall not
be acted upon until said notice has
been posted for a period of 16
days. As changed, the law would ~
not require any notice to be given
“in cases of open competitive ex-
aminations for the lowest clerica),
stenographic and office machine
operator grades-and in cases
where there are less than three
persons employed in the next low-
er grade In the department or in
& smaller promotion unit as the
case may be.” The provision for
the 15 day notice was incorporat-
ed into the law at the direct re-
quest of employees of departments
who found that through oversight ~t
or for other reasons, open compet-
itive examinations were being held
in a number of cases when there
were a group of employees in
therservice who were weil qualified
to compete In promotional exam-
inations.

Without the 15 day notice, there
{s real opportunity for withhold-
ing promotional rights from em-
ployees, and inasmuch as ad-
yancement in the public service ja
dependent upon opportunities for
Promotion, any limitation of no-
tice or advice as to vacancies is a
serious blow to career service. The
bill in question was offered by the
State Civil Service Commission
@pparently on the grounds that it
would expedite procedure. The
Association has protested to the
isslon and asked that they
Sppeal to the Governor to with-
hold approval of this Bill, Appeal
will also be made direct to the
Governor to withhold approval,

to evaluate their loss in dollars or the loes
to the enomy in destruction of war materials
needed by him to carry on the war, But
planes cost dollars to produce—millions of
dollars,

‘Then he pointed again to the obvious fact
that the Malian fight “is a small engagement
compared to the gigantic expedition which
one day, and we hope not too many months
hence, wilbbe set againet cominental Europe.”

3m short, if a fact was ever made crystal-
clear, Gen. Arnold made this one: What
we're doing now jis good—BUT STILL
NOT NEARLY ENOUGH!

And that goes for our building, for our
fighting—and for the War Bond buying that
makes the building and fighting possible.

Coming soon is a day when, with one
mighty effort, we're going to smash into
Hitler's Europe and bury Germany under
fan overwhelming mass of men, equipment—
and all the materials that money can buy,’

And to do it we've got to boost our
War Bond buying. We've got to buy
more Bonds and more Bonds and more
Bonds right up to the final minute when the
Nazi and Jap flags go down into the dust—
for good!

KEEP ON BACKING THE ATTACK !
