where it’s necessary to keep rep-

New York is the largest port

it’s entirely possible that the fa-

oarched its records. It found
that the name of Manus J. Clancy
yas listed as an. automobile
engineman, Now, automobile
enginemen were permitted to take
the assistant foreman promotion
test, but were later declared in-
dligible. That was the reason, the
Commission left the name of
Manus J. Clancy off the promo-
tion list for assistant foreman,
However, Manus J. Clancy, Jr.,
insisted that he was a sanitation

Union Says Mayor
Accepts McCarthy
Compromise
The New York District of the
State, County and Municipal
Vorkers of America aga‘n called
upon the City Council to adopt
amendments to the McCarthy In-
crement Law which would “‘clari-
iy for all time. the meaning and
intent of the law and prevent the
lay-off of more than 250 city em-
ployees."”
After several conferences with
the Mayor and Budget Director,
James V. King, acting secretary-
treasurer of the union, said that
the “union was successful in con-
vicing the administration to with-
draw most of the non-essential
features of the bill.” King an-
nounced that the Mayor has
agreed’ to the following changes
in his bill;
1, The wording will be changed
50 as to exclude playground di-
rectors from the effect of the $600
limitation on mandatory increases
within a grade.
2. The wording of the bill will
be changed so as to make it abso-
lutely clear that present city em-
ployees who are promoted will
continue to receive mandatory in-
creases to the top of their new
grades,
Grade 1 Clerks Excluded
3. The wording of the bill will
be changed so as to exclude grade
1 clerks from the $430 limitation
on increments for new employees.
King said that the union was
till negotiating with the Mayor
for the complete elimination ot
this $480 increment ceiling for
new employees, He expressed
confidence that this would be ac-
complished if the City Council and
employee groups adopted “a
sensible, constructive approach to
the solution of the mandatory in-
crement problem.”
Referring to the N. ¥. Times
report last Thursday that Major-
ity Leader Sharkey had presented
a series of three compromise pro-
posals to the Mayor, King charac-
terized this action ‘‘as a step in
the right direction’ and hailed it
“as a vindication of the position
first taken by the SCMWA on
this issue.’’

Applications Ready This Week
For NYC Clerk Examination
Applications for the clerk,
grade 1 examination will be is-
sued for a period of two weeks

on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1

Civil Service Commission, 96 Du-
ane Street, New York City.
No Age Limits
The clerk, grade one test is open
to all high school graduates.
There are no age limitations or
experience requirements. The
31,607 candidates who filed for
this test when applications were
previously distributed in January
do net have to file again. Ap-
pointments in the position are
usually made at $960.
To Fill Variety of Jobs
A recent decision by the Civil
Service Commission to use the list
which will be established as a re-
sult of the clerk, grade 1 test to
fill a variety of positions in the
city service is the reason why the
ications are being issued
in. An opportunity is now af-
forded persons to apply, who may
not have been interested in filing
for clerk positions exclusively.
Although exact titles for which
the forthcoming list will be

include such positions as attend-

Week of Compromises
On City Increment Law
The fight to change the Me-
Carthy Increment Law—one of
the bitterest struggles in the
many between Mayor and em-
ployees—dribbled down last week
ries of proposals for com-
promise. On the results of these
proposals hung the jobs of 197
employees selected out of virtual-
ly all city departments for the
axe; plus another 67 jobs of in-
igators in the Welfare De-
partment — already out since
August 8.
The Mayor has put it bluntly:
No money, says he, to pay the in-
crements required under a Court
of Appeals decision in the Petro-

War Service
Appointment
The Civil Service Commission,
at its meeting last week, decided
not to order an open-competitive
examination for pathologist
(Orange County), but to fill a
vacancy in this tille at $1,800 a
year inthe Department of Hos-
pitals by the temporary “war-
ice” appointment of a pro-
ional, The appointment will be
for a period of time not to ex-
ceed six months after the cura-
tion of the war.
In accordance with the recently-
adopted regulations permitti

nical titles, a public hearing will
be held by the Civil Service Com-
mission on the filling of this va-
cancy as soon as the name of 4:
applicant is forwarded to the
Civil Service Commission by Com-
missioner Edward M. Bernecker
of the Department of Hospitals,
In deciding to withhold the
ordering of an examination for
pathologist (Orange County), the
Commission pointed out that a list
for this position was promulgated
April 9, 1941, The list contained
only three names. Two of these
declined the offer of appointment

Out of the LaGuardia-Sharke
conversations, these
emerged:
1, Let there be no limitation of

reach the top of their grades;

‘What About
Back Pay?’
Asks Feinstein
“How about the back pay due
those city employees who haven't
received their since
McCarthy law went into effect?”
Henry Feinstein, president of
the Federation of Municipal Em-
increments
ees, this week injected a new
issue in the fight the
Mayor’s endeavor to amend the
over
McCarthy Increment Law — the
measure which pro for
regular pay raises to city em-
ployees, Said Feinstein: “It is
possible the city may try not to
pay employees the back salary
due them, The city will say they,
didn’t sign their under
protest. If this should happen it
will be a subterfuge practiced on
the employees, The only compro+
mise which 1
sue is to grant all employees half
the pay due the whether
or not they signed under protest
“Under the Petrocelli de
said Feinstein, “the City
some of its employees up ‘o $2,009

sums owed are cumulative. An
employee working for the city in
1937 was due to get $120 incre-
ment; in 1938 he would get $240
above his entering salary in i909
$360, and so forth.’ Feinstein

Calls Compromises Bad
Referring to the stories about
compromises on the pay bill which
filled civil service circles last
‘ nstein stated: ‘All com-
have been to the detri-
ment of the employee in the un-
graded service. A $2,400 ceiling
affects less than 50 people in the
entire city, What this means is
that the city actually makes a
profit of $480 on each of 1450 peo-
ple affected (who wouldn’t get
any increments), and a profit of
$350 each on roximately 1
people, who are to get one incre-
ment each, This 175 are now
earning $2,280, and are entitled to
ene more Increment under the
dompromise ceiling of $2,400 sug-
gested last week by some of tha
civil service groups. The leader
of ungraded groups said he would
consider a co
cremants abo’
of $2.5
Lower Than Union Seale
“What's more—here’s an angla
that the Mayor is conveniently
overlooking. In private industry,
the union scale for the kind of
work performed by ungraded em+
ployees runs from $2340 to $2938,
For the same type of work, the
city pays $1500 and even $1200, It
was the Mayor himself who helped
establish the rates for private in+
dustry. But when it comes to city
workers, LaGuardia seems to have
a double standard,”

ig leaves of ab-
sences to highly-skilled technical
employees whose are
needed in the war program
into a storm of publicity
last week. Brunt of the attack
was borne by Park Commissioner
Robert Moses, who, in a letter to
the New York Post, defended his
refusal to grant Park Department
technicians and engineers leaves
of absence, and to keep them, em-
Ployed, instead, on post-war plan-
ning programs
Using the case historles of two
sity engineers whose services are
in demand in the war effort,
the paper refuted Commissioner
Moses’ claims that city techni-
cians in necessary jobs are trying
to get leaves of absence just to
earn more money in private in-
dustry.
Citing the case of Jerry Bennett,
an engineer in the Board of
Transportation who has been try-
ing to get a leave of absence to
take one of five jobs offered him
by the Army and the Navy, the
paper pointed out that Mr. Ben-
nett's salary in the position he
would like to accept in the Signal
Corps laboratories at Belmar,
New Jersey, would be $3,200 a
year, just $80 a year more than
his city income, And, what is
Bennett, who was in the Signal
Corps in the last war, doing for
the city?
In company with other engineers
in the Board of Transportation,
Bennett is engaged in planning a
new signal system for Brooklyn's
Culver line, a system which will
not be installed until after the
war is over.
An engineer in Moses’ own de-
partment who was compelled to
resign from the Parks Depart-
ment in order to accept a position
designing electrical equipment for
the air force is another case in
point, In the Parks Department,
Alexander J. Kovach had been
employed on one of Mcses’ pet
“post-war"' projects. *
Kovach admits that his wages
in a vital war job were greater
than his Park Department salary.
However, he pointed out that he
was working “three times as hard
and doing work that will help win
the war," and that he was will-
ing "whenever the time comes,
to give up my home and work
services
Wherever the government may
send me.""
Moses argues like this “If
the employee is indispensible to
the war effort or if he has some-
thing particularly valuable to con-
tribute, certified to by the proper
Federal official, he always gets a
ve of absence. The trouble is,
wever, that a lot of employces
filling positions necessary to keep
the city service operating, want
to get a leave of absence and take
better paid jobs in the war effort
which can be filled just as wetl
by others who are unemployed.”
Showing the fallacy of Moses
statement that the war jobs could
be filled by the unemployed,
Kovach merely points to an ad-
ment in city newspapers
last week of the U. 8, Employ-
ment Service for “engineers, de-
signers, draftsmen,
technical branches,”
paper's story, exposing
ightedness of city de-
partment heads, was complete
from all angles except one. Ii
failed to show that the policy of
refusing the city’s skilled techni-
cians’ leaves of absence was laid
down to them by their com-
mander-in-chief, Mayor LaGuardia
in his Executive Order No. 1, is-
sued last May. The order, which
was published in full in the May
26 issue of The LEADER, con-
tains the following paragraphs:
““Engineers, specialists, techini-
cians, mechanics, and key men in
departmental organizations should
be denied leaves of absence unless
they fall in the categories above
enumerated, or unless the depart-
ment head feels that he can dis-
pense with their services for the
duration of the war without serious
loss to the city’s essential activi-
ties.
“Attention is called to the fact
that while the desire of an em-
loyee to render defense service is
laudable, the city must carry on its
essential functions throughout the
war and cannot afford to have its
organization disrupted e: for
the actual and genuine vital needs
of national defense, Whether in a
given case a request from a de
ense agency or business for re-
lease of a city employee represents
a vital need must be left to the de-
termination of the department
head.
“Frequently it is found that the
leave is sought to enable the em-
ployee to accept employment at a
substantially higher salary outside.
Having-given the employee security
pughout his years of city ser-
ice, the city is under no obliga-
tion’ to sacrifice its own interests
so that the employee may get a
better salary temporarily. Where
such cases are found to be purel
for pecuniary gain, that fact shall
in all the
be taken into consideration and
such employees may always re-
sign,”

Correction List
Finally Appear
Last week, two long-awaited
State promotion lists made their
appearance—the list for lieutenant
and the list for captain in the De-
partment of Correction, The ex-
amination for both positions had
been held October 25, 1941,
Out of a total of 221 who had
participated in the test of a cap-
taincy title, 181 made the grade—
which is a pretty high percentage.
Only 34 failed. One candidate
didn't show up; five were disap-
proved, The position carries a
salary cf $2800 a year.
Heading the list are four dis-
abled veterans: Charles W. Priest,
of Dannemora; James McDonald,
of Auburn; Walter Wilkins, of
Elmira; and Charles M, Sullivan,
of Auburn, FE
87.714. Top non:
ber 5 on the list) is Joseph Con-
bey, of Auburn, with a grade of
91.978, closely followed by J. EB.
Lavallee, of Walkill, with 91.558.
Curiously, the top names on the
lieutenant lst are the same as
those on the captain list, with one
exception. James McDonald is
number 1 man; Charles Sullivan,
number 2; Walter Wilkins, num-
ber 3; and Howard Byrns, another
disabled vet, number 4, ‘Top non-
vet is J, E, Lavallee, who makes
a grade of 92 to beat all others.
Salary for the lieutenant position
is $2600. A total of 414 applied
for the test. Of these, 338 passed,
59 failed, 3 were absent, 14 dis-
approved,

Jobs for New
Other Areas
Slow but increasing tendency of
out-of-city and out-of-State
ployers to draw on the New York
City labor reserve is reported by
the United States Employment Serv-
ice.
Upstate and out-of-State offices of
the USES called on the USES in
New York City to supply applicants
for 2,500 war jobs from June 16 to
July 18, according to Richard C,
Brockway, USES Director for New
York. ‘The largest single order
“cleared” to New York by other
USES offices came from Florida,
for 1,150 workers. Orders from
other States included 260 from Cali-
fornia, 209 from Pennsylvania and
110 from New Jersey.
Shipyard workers were chiefly in
demand on the 2,500 clearance
orders. Florida alone called for
1,050 skilled shipyard workers, and
the California order was for ship-
yard electricians. Most of the de-
mand from New Jersey was for arc-
welders. A heavy demand developed
from upstate for carpenters, elec-
tricians and other construction
workers.
Mr, Brockway pointed out, how-
ever,that the shipyard demand was
chiefly for highly skilled workers
em-
and that maximum use of New
York City's reserve of unskilled
and partially trained shipyard
workers will occur only when other
areas have exhausted their present
adequate surplus of this type of
worker.
Large corporations in other areas
are recruiting more and more work-
es directly from New York City,

Suggestions For
Postal Service
Sirs: Ihave some su:
stions for
the benefit of postal employees
among your readers:
Prometions in the posta’ service
should be by competitive exami-
nation, allowing a slight grade for
nd subjects to include
of an applicant to
handle men ithout favoritism
and under every known condition.
The latter is most important. The
strvice needs men with executive
training.
‘The annual case examination
with {ts ridiculous marking sys-
tem should be abolished as it is
most discriminatory. How can a
foreman judge one for rapidity
and why should seniority enter
into it?) Seniority should be con-
seniority
the abilil
sidered in the promotional exami-
nations,
The foremen should be familiar
with the employees _ physical
makeup and give them break oc-
2 , not try-to break them
physically.
‘The inspection of working condi-
uch as fatigue, should be
done by the United States Depart-
ment cf Labor's Industrial Inspec-
tors who are trained and qualified
for this work,
Of course your suggestion that
a board of appeals should handle
disciplinary matters, I am in full
agreement with,
How about the letter carrier,
should he not have a lighter load
as well as a lighter bag?
Now with all the employees
leaving the service for the armed
forces, don’t you think it feasable
that more men should be ap-
pointed ov must the already over-
burdened have to stand the
strain?
H.N.
Let's have other suggestions.
—Editor,
“WE'hE NOT DEMANDING
«+» we're only asking for those
things to which we're entitled!”
In one sentence, Robert LaMont
summed up the philosophy under-
lying his administration of the
Laundry Workers’ Association in
the Hospitals Department. And,
one of the "things" to which La-
Mont, second-time president of
this employee group, believes
laundry workers are entitled is a
living wege.
“It's pretty hard to feed a fam-
ily, pay rent, gas, and electricity
on $65 a month,” he said.
The plight of the laundry work-
evs was recognized by Mayor La-
Guardia, when, in the current
budget, appropriations were made
to increese the salaries $60 a
year,
It’s a Myth
Incidentally, the $60-a-year in-

increases of $2.50 a month for six
months, beginning July 1 and
$2.50 more beginning January 1.
To date they have not even re-
ceived the July portion cf the
raise which will only amount to
twenty-five dollars, not sixty dol-
lars.
Sense of Justice
Mild - mannered, _ soft-spoken,
Robert LaMont possesses a deep
sense of justice. Added to this is
a streak of perserverance needed
to overcome obstacles in the
fight to help his fellow-employees.
He was one of the origina! found-
ers of the Laundry Worker's As-
sociation,
Before the organization came
into existence, laundry workers
were paid once a month in cash,
The pay was due on the first of
the month, LaMont recalls, but
frequently, {t didn’t arrive until
the eighth, ninth or tenth. One
of the reforms which his organiza-
tion helped to put over was the
change to the payment of laundry
workers by check twice a month,

QUESTION, PLEASE
‘Certification’ Isn’t
‘Appointment’
B. L.: Certification does not
mean appointment. Don't quit
your job just because the local of-
fice of} the U. 8. Ci Service
Commission has certified your
name to a Federal agency for ap-
pointment, Although the chances
of your being appointed are
good, you are not appointed
until you are interviewed and ac-
cepted by the personnel officer of
the Federal agency, When the
personnel officer of the depart-
ment to which your name has
been been forwarded by the U. S.
Civil Service Commission tells you
to report for work on a certain
date, you can give up your pres-
ent employement.
The same principle applies to
certification from eligible lists es-
tablished by the Municipal Civil
Service Commission and offers of
appointment to city position,
More names are certified to a de-
partment by the Civil Service
than there are vacancies in that
department. Thus, if a depart-
ment has two jobs open and re-
quests the Civil Service Commis-
sion for eligibles to fill these jobs,
the Commission” may certify
many as 20 or 30 eligibles to tlie
department, Each eligible is he

ment head asking if he will %

college directly or out of civilian
life if they have a talent or
capacity which the Navy can use.
Eligibility for the Reserve

‘he Seabees—Worker-Fighters
' As the present emergency de-
veloped, it became apparent to
the Navy that the services of
contractors and their civilian em-
ployees weren't sufficient for con-
‘ struction work outside the conti-
~ nental limits of the United States,
in potential combat zones. After
the declaration of war, and the
capture of Guam, Wake, and
Cavite, it was decided that the
only satisfactory solution of this
problem would be to accomplish
such work by the use of mili-
tary personnel under military
command.
‘The plan was originally put into
effect in October 1941, when one
company of 99 men was organ-
4zed. Two months later, five addi-
tional companies were formed, de-
signated primarily for utilization

those places where work was be-
ing done by contractors with civil-
jan labor, These units quickly
Proved their usefulness, It be-
came desirable not only to in-
_ crease the size of the organiza-
tion, but also to enlarge the scope
of their activities by enlisting men
with a wide range of mechanical
skill and training, who, as a close-
ly knit body body under command
of officers of the Civil Engineer
Corps, could effectively carry out
all phases of construction work in
Potential combat zones and who,
being given military training,
would be prepared to give effec-
tive resistance to enemy interfer-
ence with their assigned task,
How The Name Came About
In simple words, the Navy is
hiring construction men and giv-
ing them military status. ‘The
name ‘Seabees’ applied to these
worker-fighters has an interes(ing
origin, In January, 1942, one of the
first groups of worker-fighters
was sent to the Naval Air Station
*at Quonset Point, L. I., for train-
ing. One of the civil engineer
officers here conceived the idea of
a name and insignia which would
adequately portray the mission of
this new type of military force.
Enlisted men and civilian em-
ployees at the station were asked
to start thinking up suggestions.
And the decision finally fell upon
the term ‘Seabees’, because it
was phonetically similar to “CB”
the abbreviation for ‘‘Construc-
tion Battalion.” Also, it was
character mission of
the new organization, nautical as
denoted in the first syllable,
coupled with the industriousness
of the bee.
Who Can Join the Seabees
You can join the Seabees if you
are a citizen between the ages of
17 and 50, and have had construc-
tion experience or ship experience
in the Steward department. Be-

you have had construction experi-
ence in any field, which, in your
opinion, the Navy might be able
to utilize, don’t hesitate to apply.
Where and How To Enlist
Men desiring to enlist may ap-
ply at Naval Recruitment Stations
anywhere in the United States.
At each of these stations there
is an officer of the Civil Engineer
Corps, who interviews each appli-
cant carefully, He passes on tech-
nical qualifications. In addition,
the applicant must pass a medical
examination to prove that he can
stand the strain of hard work in
all parts of the world.
If you are interested, communi-
cate with the Civil Engineering
officer at your nearest Naval Re-
cruitment station, or write to the

Pay and Rank
Men selected for the Construc-
tion Regiment are entered though
the Navy's V-6 plan. This means
they may receive ratings from
Petty Officer, Second Class to
Chief Petty Officer. Base pay is
$54 to $126 a month, according to
a man’s ability and experience. In
addition, each man will receive
extra compensation for his de-
pendents. Food, clothing, hous-
ing, medical and dental care, und
recreation, are provided without
charge, of course.
Training
Before going off for active duty,
the Seabees undergo a period of
training. ‘The Training Center
has been established as part of the
Naval Operating Base at Norfoik,
Virginia. ‘The Center consists of
two units: Camp Allen for prelim-
inary training and induction into
the Navy, and Camp Bradford for
advanced, specialized training.
At Camp Allen the battalions
are organized and the men indo
trinated in naval d pline and
customs. They go through 21 days
of detention for physical check-
up and inocculations.
The officers in charge of the
Seabee program are under no illu-
sions that they are going to turn
out crack military regiments, per-
fect on the rifle and drill feld.
‘Time is too short for that.
The men are taught to fight,
ind fight hard, with rifles, pistols,
machine guns, bayonets, and hand
grenades. The Seabees are going
into the field to defend, if nece:
ary, the bases which they are
to construct and main-
Combat and defense fighting is
taught by Marine drill masters. In
addition to the use of weapons,
there are drills and lectures to
make the skilled artisan into a
fighting mechanic. They are
taught close and extended order,
combat principles, and semapHore.
They are also taught the erection
and use of decontamination units;
and they undergo gas n
The weeks of indoctrination at
Camp Allen are only a curtain
raiser to the advanced training
which comes at Camp Bradford.
At Allen there are a few lectures
on professional construction sub-
jects given by officers and civilian
instructors. Every man in the
battalion gets the fundamentals of
construction operations which
may be nece:
vance naval bases. At Bradford,
abees put on their final
rehearsal for the perform
ance they are expected to turn in
Lectures continue, but the empha
sis is on practical drills under
ry in building ad-|
conditions simulating those in the]
field.
Bradford was selected because
as a site for the camp it embodies
in its varied terrain so many of
the factors which Seabees might
encounter when landing on
strange shores. The long beach
offers the difficulties of sand bars
for landing drills from pontoons.
There are sand dunes on the
beach and brackish swamps to
breed mosquitoes unless preven-
tive measures are taken. There
are fresh water lakes, wooded up-
lands, lowlands tough with scrub
brush, and open fields,
The men are quartered in
“Quonset huts'’ which are used
extensively at the bases for hous-
ing, gallleys, offices, and hospi
tals. ‘The galley equipment is the
same as that which they will take
to base camps,

INTELLIGENCE OFFICERS
Intelligence officers perform du-
of vast importance to the
Vavy. ‘These duties are frequent:
ly of a nature requiring the ut-
most in tact, intelligence, and
persuasiveness, The Navy theve-

WARRANT OFFICERS
One of the most important links
In the chain of Naval personnel
is the Warrant Officer, He's a
specialist in some particular
branch of Naval work,
In the Naval Reserve, men ap-
pointed to the Warrant rank need
not take examinations.
Warrant Officers may be ap-
pointed in the Naval Reserves for
General Service in the grades of
boatswain, carpenter, electrician,
radio electrician, gunner, machin-
ist, radio electrician, acting pay
clerk, and pharmacist, Appoint+
ments are made from the ranks
of qualitied enlisted personnel
and also qualified civiliains,
In addition to the general re-
quirements as to character and
age limits, candidates for these
Warrant classifications are re«
quired to establish their profi-
ciency by acceptable proof of past
experience in various related
trades; formal education, includ-
ing trade schools attended and
subjects covered; leadership, as
evidenced by employment as fore-
men, superintendents, and in
other similar positions of respon-
sibility; technical experience, as
distinguished from routine om-
ployment; operation of own busi+
ness and entery past mili
tary, naval, or marine experience,
PROBATIONARY ENSIGNS
there any possibility of an
nsign’s commission for the col-
loge graduate whose background
may have included only a general
classical education? Yes, under
certain conditions. Men between
the ages of 19 and 26 who are
morally, mentally, and physical-
ly qualified for a commission,
and who hold college degrees,
have the privilege of applying in
the Voluntary Reserve for gener-
al service “in a probationary
status." This means that the
candidate will serve for a period
on a trial basis, If he is found
qualified, a new commission will
be issued to him making his
status permanent, The new com-
mission automatically supercedes
the probationary one, Time spent
on probation will not count to-
ward promotion to lieutenant
(junior grade),
Students of engineering in tho
junior classes of accredited col-
leges are also acceptable for com-
missions as probationary Ensigns,
to continue in such status until
graduation, at which time they
will be reappointed as ensigns in
the appropriate special service
classification,
Members of senior classes in en-
gineering will not receive proba-
tionary commissions, but may, if
their qualifications are accept-
able, be commissioned upon grad-
uation,

$4,000 a Year
Pesition Filled
How would you like a fob at
$4,000 a year?
In effect, this is what the Civil
Service Commission asked two eli-
gibles on the open-competitive list
for admnistrative assistant (fiscal
management) this week, The two
cligibles, Walter P. Brill, of 43-09
40th Strect, Sunnyside, and Louis
Flamm, of 23-44 37th Street, As-
toria, were certified to the office
of the Comptroller by the Com-
mission.
There is one vacancy in the of-
fice of the Comptroller for an ad-
ministrative assistant at $4,000 a
year. The eligible list containing
the names of the two Queens men
was promulgated March 12, 1941.
How Far Has
Compromise Gone
On McCarthy Law
What compromise will be made
on the McCarthy increment law
changes?
Will the 197 employees slated
for dismissal August 20, be fired
or not?
Will the 67 social investigators
previously laid off by the Mayor
be given their jobs back?
‘These were the questions which
prompted a specia! conference be-
tween Mayor LaGuardia and
majority leaders of the City Coun-
cil late last week,
‘These were the questions which
could only be partially answered
as The LEADER went to press,
After the conference Demo-
cratic leader Joseph ’, Sharkey,
said: “It has been agreed that
Council President Newbold Mor-
ris's proposal for a drastic cur-
tailment of increment. privileges
for city employees be amended so
as to guarantee that no employee
shall receive less salary than he
did on Jan, 1, 1942.
“In addition, the Mayor has
promised that he will give the
Council written assurance that no
employees will be dropped from
the budget, and the status of city
employees, as of Jan. 1, will not
be changed by budgetary amerd-
ments, The Mayor previously
promised these employees dropped
from the budget by the Board of
Estimate will be restored to the
city payroll when the amendmen‘s
to the McCarthy law are adopted
by the Council."
A spokesman for the office of
Budget Director Kenneth Dayton
said, “The 197 employees won't
be dropped if it can be avoided!”
‘The conferences were still in the
development stage, the spoles-
man told the LEADER. He said
that attempts Were being made to
write into the law provisions
which would protect the salaries
of city employees as of Jan. 1,
1942,

No Decision
On Radiation Men
The Municipal Civil Service
Commission last week reserved
decision on a proposal to place
radiation technicians in the Mis-
cellancous Service of the com:
petitive class with a salary ceiling
of $1,800 2 year,
At a public hearing held by the
Commission on the measure,
James V. King, acting Secretary-
Treasurer of the New York Dis-
trict SCMWA, urged that these
employees of the Hospital De-
partment be permitted to go to
$2,040 a year by means of man-
datory increments because they
had in fact been in the ungraded
service since 1938 and therefore
were entitled to four increments
above the entrance salary of $1.
560, He also pointed to the haz-
ardous nature of their work and
the lack of promotion opportuni+
ties as added reasons for this
higher salary ceiling.
When Commissioner Michael B,
White of the Hospital Depart:
ment informed the Commission
that the Budget Director was in
favor of the $1,800 ceiling for
these jobs, King asked the Com-
mission to reserve decision until
he had an opportunity to discuss
this salary question with officials
of the Budget Director's Office
and the Department of Hospi-
tals,
