Actually, it was contended, the

Unfairness Charged
The charge was made that it
wasn't fair to those in the depart-

Mr, DeRoode charged that the
Deputy Chief list had expired one
day before the attempted appoint~-
ments, because it was promul-
gated on June 26, 1940, had four
years to run, and Commissioner
Walsh's order was made effective
as of 12:01 on June 27, 1944. Mr
De Roode held that the promul-
gation date of the original list
was that of its publication in the
City Record, and not that of the
attempted promulgation dated a
week later. He also made the con-
| tentions of lack of budgetary wl-
| thority
| The court already has had the
| cases for months, and one reason
assumed for the delay is a need
to reconcile whatever its finding
may be with what it held in the
| Rushford case.
Needed: A Way Out
It is not generally contended
by litigants that the rule in the
Rushford case is applicable to all
other cases, and that the Board
of Estimate has no power to
change the budget between adop-
tion dates, hence can exercise au-
thority only once a year, That is
pretty much conceded to be tying
the Board's hands more than prac-
tical conditions would allow, and
even more than charter provisions
| require.
As the cases stand to date, the
decision has been in fayor of the
petitioners in the Welling and
Broderick cases. Supreme Court
Justice Pecora held that the ex-
periment was not sound, and
doubted the Board had power to
make the change, but if it did,
it couldn't delegate the power.
‘The Appellate Division, in affirm-
ing, did so only on the ground
that the charter gave the Budget
Director no authority to change
the budget in the manner in which
he had attempted.
Battalion Chief Comparison
The cases also affect indirectly
the recent promotion of Captains
to Acting Battalion Chiefs, except
that in the Captains’ case the
Budget Director purported to
eliminate 10 Battalion Chiefs to
create 10 Acting Battalion Chiefs,
at the same time promoting 10
captains to the so-called. Acting
Battalion Chief vacancies, al-
can it delegate that power to the | though continuing them at Cais

cular code, If the power exists
to make changes, it can not be
delegated by the Board, contended
Mr. Kaplan, as it 1s not a minis-
terial act, but one requiring dis-
cretion.
The nullification of the pro-
motions was sought in a proceed-
inb brought under Article 78 of
the civil practice act.
De Roode's Contentions
The companion case was that
of Broderick vs Walsh, in which
Albert De Roode is the y:
Broderick was a Battalion Chief
waiting wo take the promotion
examination to Deputy Fire Chief,
The hasty promotions, he con-
tended, impaired his promotion
chances, as the filling of the pro-
motion positions reduced, if it

City promptly took away their new
benefits by cutting them from five
to four work days a week. They
formerly earned $11.20 a day plus
® $1 bonus; under the increased
rate they receive $14.40 a day, but
lost the bonus and the extra days’
work. That leaves them just about
where they were before they won
the increase, they say. Besides
this, outside steamfitters are now
negotiating with their employers
for an increase and when that
goes through, it will again put the

Low Fire Pay
(Continued from Page 1)
| that firemen's salaries are far too
small and granted them a $420 a
year cost-of-living bonus which is
only @ temporary emergency in-
crease in pay.
The 3-platoon system has been
suspended and there }s little likli-
}hood of its being restored within
the near future, even if all the
firemen in military service are re-
turned to fire duty, as there is no
eligible list from which to make
appointments.
Firemen are entitled to « living
wage. Discrimingtion against them
now before e City Council,
should end immediately. The Bill
would make the §420 a year cost~
oft-living bonus a premanent part
their salaries, should be enacted
into law.
Firemen protect the lives and
homes of the citizens of New

means shoddy clothing, poor and insufficient food, impos-

ployee especially doesn’t want inflation. It is the duty of
every citizen—and this should be hammered home again
and again—to hold the line against inflation. But if the
various rent and price ceilings de break, the public em-
ployee must be prepared against the resultant deteriora-
tion in living standards. For he, on fixed salary, is imme-
diately affected. Every public employee knows this from
his own experience. He knows how, during the reecnt war,
he waited years before the public authorities came
through with such stop-gap devices as “emergency
bonuses”—which never reached the peak attained by the
cost-of-living index.
Experts Say Inflation Is Here Now
Now inflation is a very real possibility in the United
States. The financial writers are sure of it, Leslie Gould,
financial editor of the New York “Journal-American,”
“The fight . . . against inflation is lost. The only
question is how high will it go?”
Sylvia Porter, financial writer for the New York
“Post” says of the stock market: ‘We're really in it now.
«.. It's an inflation boom.”
Cause for Fear and Worry
And those who work for the State of New York or for
the Government of the United States or for NYC or for
any other municipality in the land, have cause to fear.
They have cause to worry about their manner of living
and the needs of their children. They are the ones who
will be hit first.
This isn't something that’s going to happen five years
from now, or even two years from now. If the financial
seers know what they're talking about, the issue of in-
flation is one of next month, next week, tomorrow. If the
business editors are right, it means: Prices will not go
down, Prices will not stay what they are. Prices will
go up
The Blithe Day Has Lived Its Course
What's to be done about it?
The public employee must begin at Once his prepara-
tion against being victimized by inflation. Campaigning
to hold the line against inflation, he yet knows that once
the line has been broken, he will bear it hard, Let him
fight the inflationary forces. Let him fight against the
removal of ceilings, But let him act, at the same time,
to protect himself,
The public official must realize “what the score" is,
and tor once be ready to put into effect swiftly those in-
struments whieh ean protect the public worker:
“Emergency bonuses” alone won't do, Such bonuses
are usually too little and too late, They do not make for
security. They do not enable the publie employee to
deal with the reality of the coming inflation,
The steps which must be taken to offset
these:
1, A sharp increase in the base pay of public em-
ployees (which has always been too low),
inflation are
2. Together with this increase, a sliding scale
arrangement whereby as the cost-of-living index goes up,
so will p: If the cost-of-living index falls, so will the
salaries of public employees, except that those salaries are
minimum base. —
A system of overtime pay which has been recog-
never to go below the
nized as proper in private industry—time and a half.
The day of devil-may-eare economics is over, The
day of blithely permitting fixed-income employees to suffer
because of such colossal forces as inflation is over. It
will take stern action to achieve the proper answers, But
this is a time for stern action,

Preference Amendment's Effect
On Jobs of Exempt Employees
At present, under Section 22, subdivision 1, of the State Civil
Service Law, a war veteran, if his position is abolished or becomes
‘unnecessary, “shall not be discharged from the pubile service but
shall be transferred to any branch of said service for duty in stich
position as he may be fitted to fill, receiving the same compensation
therefor."
‘The subdivision closes with these words:
“Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to apply to the
position of private secretary, cashier or deputy of any official or
department,”
The proposed constitutional amendment, after providing for
primary preference to disabled veterans, and secondary preference
to non-disabled yeterans in appointments and promotions from any
list, then sets forth:
“Upon the abolition or elimination of positions in the civil}
service, to which the foregoing preferences are applicable, any such
member of the armed forces shall be entitled to preference in the
retention of any position held by him or her, in inverse order of
the preference as provided in this section.”
TAKES EFFECT IMMEDIATELY
Regardless of what “inverse order" may mean,' it is clear that
veterans a8 @ class do get preft over non-veterans in the re=
tention of “any position held by or ber.”
‘There is no specific provision in the amendment con=
veterans in some of the identified position, would they benefit
by the enactment of the amendment? Would other war veterans,
occupying positions not specifically excepted from protection benefit
in the Civil Service law section, because their jobs or similar ones
have been construed by the courts to be deputyships, such as Assist~
ant Corporation Counsis?*
Also, section 22 has been construed by the courts to apply
to the Classified Service’—the Competitive, Non-Competitive, Exempt
and Labor classes, It does not apply to the Unclassified Service,
which includes elected officers, department heads, legislative and
Board of Election employers.
If a statute provides that an appointee shall serve during the
pleasure of the Commissioner, no retention benefit applies,” nor to
incumbents under the Public Officers Law.!
SUBTERFUGES FAIL
Varfous subterfuges have been tried, in an effort to get rid of
war veterans in exempt positions, but have failed. Pretending to
abolish the position, and then creating one with the same duties,
only in the Competitive Class, proved futile’, So did changing the
title but not the duties,
EFFECT ON SOME NYC EMPLOY 11.5
To gain the benefit of retention protection under Section 22
the war veteran had to occupy @ subordinate position. No protection
applied to independent officers, or even to those who stand in the
next highest position, with oceasional power to act as thelr substitutes
or deputies.’ Thus exempt employees in NYC for whom certificates
are on file with the City Clerk, empowering them to act for and on
behalf of an independent officer who appointed and certified them,
might lose out,
The proposed constitutional retention preference applies only to
those veterans appointed from a list, hence to competitive and non~
competitive employees, and not to exempt employees; and only in the
event of “abolition or elimination of positions in the civil service”
to which the appointment-promotion preferences are applicable.

plans being formulated to set up

Comptroller can make a survey
| of the 25-year retirement proposal, |
which is creating such high in-

| proposal receiving consideration is
the Barratt Bill (or longevity pay
pian) under which employees
| would be given a $100 increment
for every five years of service,
after service of 10, 15 or 20 years.
The precise manner of this pro-
posal has not as yet been adopt- |
ed. The bill passed the Senate
last year but was defeated in the
Assembly,
Mr. Hollister said that defeat
of the Downey-Sherman veterans’
preference amendment, which
comes up before the voters this
Fall, was essential to good govern-
ment and the Career System; that
ten points allowed disabled vet-

New Group Is Formed to
Improved Care of Mental Patients
Suggests Higher Pay for Hospital Workers
A new organization has been
formed, with backing in high
laces, which proposes to suggest
provements in mental hygiene
practices,
‘The group, which has taken the
name of The People's Committee
for Mental Hygiene, has among
its active participants State Sena-
tor Lowell H, Brown. A statement
from the Committee says that
“with the approval of Dr. Mac-
Curdy, Commissioner of Mental
Hygiene, the Senator has agreed
to attend meetings, study recom-
mendations and work with the
Committee and Department,”
Tt is expected that the new or-
ganization will shortly announce
& number of additional “big-
name” sponsors.
In a first public statement, the
Committee has come out for high-
er pay scales to attendants. For
this reason, and because thelr in-
terests are closely affected, it has
been suggested by officers of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees, that employees of the
department watch carefully the
direction which the new group will
take, and be prepared to advise it
and “steer it properly.” An at-
titude of watchful waiting on the
part of employees was recom-
mended. The statement issued by
the People’s Committee contained
the following information >
No Probe Sought
by interested groups and individu-
als to secure improvements in the
“The Committee is being formed
field of care and cure of mental
the chronle services, to
equal at least one registered nurse
per doctor.
“3. A reorganization of the me-
dical staff, to include highly train-
ed Psychiatrists-in-Charge who
will form the nucleus of a teach-
ing, supervisory unit,
“4. Advisory medical boards,
consisting of representatives of all
the specialies, gradually to replace
the obsolete Boards of Visitors
which now rarely include even one
general practitioner.
Ҥ. Pull-time psychiatrists and
social workers in Convalescent
Clinics (actively to follow up
“paroled” patients, 40% of whom
now return).
“6. Extension of family care to
the fullest degree possible to
empty overcrowded institutions of
as many harmless chronic pa-
tients as are capable of any social
adjustment.
Creation of psychiatric units

of administration be adopted to
put an end for all time to the
medieval practices and conditions
which still are universal in the
field of mental hygiene,

qualified for a pension under the
Social Security Act may receive
benefits under the Social Security
retirement system. He may also
receive benefits concurrently un-
der both the Civil Service Retire-
ment Act and the Railroad Re-
tirement Act.
“1. The amounts of annuity
benefits payable under the Civil
Service Retirement Act are liberal
when compared with the amounts
contributed by the employee. An
example may be cited in the case
of an employee who entered the
Federal service at age 25 and who
worked for 5 years at a salary
of $2,000 per year, exclusive of
overtime. His retirement contri-
butions, at the rate of 5 per cent
total $500 for the 5-year period.
At age 62 he is eligible for a life-
time income of about $250 a year.
If he lives for 15 years, which is
the normal life expectancy at age
62, he will receive a total of ap-
proximately $3,750, If he should
die before reaching retirement age
or before living out his life ex-
pectancy, any amount remaining
to his credit in the retirement
fund will be paid to his benefi-
Question of Adequacy
“8. It is to the advantage of
Pederal employees to be able to
build up credits for old-age an-
nuities based on Government
service, whether such service is
rendered during time of war or
pace. While the amount of an-
nuity based soly on Federal serv~
ice may not be adequate as the
only means of support in the case
of workers who do not make a
career of Government service, it
is expected that many such work-
ers will have also acquired cover-
age under other retirement sys~
tems, so that benefits from these
various sources plus the indivi-
dual's own savings will, in most
cases, be adequate for old age.
“9. The attached table, showing
the approximate annuities payable
at age 62 under specified condi-
tions, indicates the valuable an-
nuity rights which accrue to Fed-
eral employees who remain in the
service for more than 5 years.
