WASHINGTON,—The Civil Ser-

effect a new streamlined recruit-

be an all-powerful weapon against
discrimination in the hiring of
Federal workers.

texm this significant state-
ment to make:
“Federal employees are suffer-
ing hardships, very real hard-
ships, as a result of the great and
constantly growing disparity be-
tween their small salaries, rigidly
fixed by and akyrocketing
living costs, Under present con-
ditions it is simply impossible for
the great bulk of the employees
of the Federal Government to
maintain even minimum Ameri-
can standards of living.
‘dt ia a truism that in times
such as these it is the men and
women who are employed at
fixed salaries who are hit the
hardest by changing economic
conditions, Living costs keep on
going skyward, but their incomes
remain the same, Living stand-
ards suffer, and when living
standards suffer no phase of our
national life is immune from the
unhappy social and economic con-
sequences.
Won't Buy More
“Let us suppose now that steps
are taken to provide an adjust-
ment of Federal salaries in some
relation to living costs, Will that
mean that Federal employees will
be able to buy more luxuries than
they were two years ago Will it
enable them to go to more places
and to do more things than. they
did two years ago? Will it en-
able them to save more money, to
buy more insurance?

ployee, let us say, money to buy

T hope, be enabled to buy as much

girls; enough warm clothing;
enough to pay the doctor and the
dentist and enough left over to

“I am telling you the truth
when I say that there are things

today are losing because the cost

the
way to the welfare and
preservation of their country .
Ramspeck’s Statement
Mead's teammate, Chairman
Robert Ramspeck of the House
Civil Service Committee, had this
to way:
“The Bureau of the Budget is
giving consideration to the effect
of the increased cost of living
upon Federal employees. It is my
thought that no action upon this
question should be undertaken
until Congress has enacted the
price control bill, Then we will
be able to judge the problem in
the light of the amount of control
that legislation will have upon
prices. If prices are to continue
their rise, certainly the salaries of
Government workers must be ad-
vanced, In any event, this prob-
lem will have careful study and
will be considered in due cours
Military Affairs Committee
Meantime, the House Military
Affairs Committee has gone to
bat for a higher Federal wage
level, particularly for employees
of the National Advisory Com-
mittee for Aeronautics, The com-
mittee points out that NACA has
lost many of its personnel and is
faced with the certainty of, large
losses unless it materially raises
salaries or makes large earnings
possible through overtime work.
NACA has a bill now before
Congress which would permit it
to pay some of its employees
overtime pay—but the bill has
been blocked.
Meantime, also, Chalrman
Ramspeck of the House Civil
Service Committee hasn't been
able to get the House to pass his
bill which would raise the salaries
of nearly 200,000 low-paid Federal
employees.
WAR
Defense Bonds
Out of Payrolls
The Navy Yard Civil Service
Association recently suggested to
Secelary of the Treasury, Henry
C. Morgenthau, Jr., that legisla-
tion be introduced permitting the
deduction of subscriptions for De-
fense Bonds from employees pay-
checks , , . The following letter
from R. W. Sparks, field director
of the Defense Savings Staff was
received by the local association:
“At the present time, the Navy
Department is making available a
plan whereby Defense Savings
Bonds can be purchased on a con-
venient and systematic basis
through the Payroll Allotment
Plan, This plan will be in-
augurated in the very near future
throughout all departments of the
Navy and you and your fellow em-
ployees should soon be able to
purchase bonds on the basis that
you suggest."

NEW BILLS
Retirement Bill
Makes Touchdown
WASHINGTON, — That re-
doubtable team of Ramspeck and
Mead has put over another touch-
down for Federal employees—the
liberalized retirement bill — and
it’s getting itself in trim for an-
other scrap in behalf of Federal
workers—a cost of living pay
raise.
‘The retirement bill is considered
a major employee reform meas-
sure. The bill affects just about
every single Federal worker. De-
spite the fact that Uncle Sam
compelled private industry to con-
tribute toward the pensions of its
employees through the Social
Security system, the plain truth
is that the Government didn’t
practise what it preached. Of the
1,600,000 Federal workers, less
than’ 1,000,000 are covered by a
pension system.
‘The new Ramspeck-Mead bill
will bring these uncovered em-
ployees under the retirement sys-
tem.
What It Does
For the million covered em-
ployees, the bill raises their co
tributions to the retirement fund
from 3% per cent to 5 per cent,
but the employees get plenty in
return, An employee can retire at
60 after 30 years of service or at
62 after 15 years service; and he
ean even retire on a reduced
annuity at 55 after 30 years of
service, under certain conditions
The compulsory retirement ago
for all employees is fixed at 70
employees can be kept on beyond
that age only on order of tho
President. Larger annuities will
be given employees, particularly
those in the higher pay brackets
($2,400 and above) who have been
contributing more to the fund
than loWwer-paid employees.
‘The Mead-Ramspeck retitement
bill has passed both houses of
Congress, and at this writing
awaits F, D,'s signature.

PAY RAISES
A Beginning
Of Optimism
Assistant Budget Director
Thomas J, Patterson this week
declared tabulations of salaries of
city employees are rapidly near-
ing the finish but warned munic-
ipal workers “not to be too opti-
mistic'’ about general pay boosts,
He did admit that “something no
doubt is going to be done here
and there," however, referring,
doubtless, to outstanding cases.
Departmental budget hearings
continued through the week be-
fore Budget Director Kenneth
Dayton.
Opinion in the Board of Bsti-
mate's office indicated that Mr.
Patterson's survey of the situa-
tion could be expected to bear
fruit,"It once more didn't put
faith in the conclusions of the
Federation of Municipal Em-
ployees that funds could be raised
by re-issuing city corporate stock
and bonds. It held that all the
outstanding bonds with a recall
feature have already been re-
called,
Said Ewart Guinier, president
of the New York District of
State, County and Municipal
Workers of America:
"It's obvious the Board of Es-
timate doesn’t have to make any
further study of the situation,
‘The need is there and the mem-
bers of the board realize it.’
Harold Fink, international ex-
ecutive board member of the Fed-
eration of Architects, Engineers,
Chemists and Technicians, warned
“it is poor policy to impair the
effectiveness of the city’s defense
mechanism by striking blows at
the morals of its technical staff—
the engineers who are all impor-
tant in the city's defense appar-
atus.””
‘Transit Group Petition
The New York City Transit Em-
ployees’ Benevolent Association
this week began circulation of a
petition among the city's transit
system employees addressed to
the Board of Transportation and
calling for an increase in wages
as well as no more than two rates
of pay within each classification.
How Is It
To Be Done?
The Federation of Municipal
Employees, speaking through its
president, Henry Feinstein, this
week invaded the law library of
the municipal building and came
out with enough facts to show
Comptroller Joseph D, McGold-
rick—In its opinion—how to reis-
sue the city’s corporate stock and
serial bonds in a legal, bonafide
and otherwise aboveboard man-
ner so the city's employees can
get that much wanted raise in
pay to meet soaring costs of liv.
ing.
It Gets Technical
Specifically, pointed out Mr.
Feinstein, Section 242 of the Ad-
ministrative Code of the City
Charter — enacted originally in
1878 and since continued (the last
revision putting more teeth into
the section was in 1938)—author-
izes the city, with the o. k. of the
Board of Estimate, to refund the
city's bonded indebtedness (cur-
rently estimated at a mere three
billion dollars),
“The city," held Mr, Feinstein,
“is paying entirely too much in-
terest on its bonded indebtedness,
What's more, it isn't bound by
any agreement with its creditors
to continue paying interest rates
as high as 7 per cent and at an
average of 3,6 per vent when the
charter specifically states that
serial bonds and securities may
cent. Under 3.6,
totals $109,000,000, Cut that rate
down to 2.3, and the city saves
85 per cent, or just about $25,-
000,000 a year. With that kind of
dough, they could afford to meet
pay raises and lots of other
things.”’
The charter authorizes the
Board of Estimate, Mr. Feinstein
added, ‘'to direct the Comptroller
to issue, at not less than par, cor-
porate stock or serial bonds—not
to extend beyond the maturity
date of the original obligation—
and this re-issuing would go a
long way toward solving our
problems.””
Vast Sum Available
Mr, Feinstein said that there
are about three billion dollars in
these bonds and stocks outstand-
ing and that those who hold them
should have become acquainted
with the fact, when they pur-
chased them, that the chatter
provides for limitations upon tho
city in making the contract.
Thus, the city could declare it-
self its own clearing house and,
with the proceeds from the new
issues, pay off the old bonds,
Holders would either have to take
cash or settle for lower interest
rates,

Last Inning for
Phone Operators
For the ninth and last time,
Samuel A. Spiegel, attorney” for
the 890 eligibles on the telephone
operator (male) list went to bat
in his attempt to compel the Po-
lice Commissioner to oust ser-
geants and patrolmen doing
switchboard duty and have them
replaced by the telephone oper-
ator boys. The Court of Appeals,
before whom Spiegel appeared,
reserved decision, Pitching
inst Spiegel for the City was
istant corporation counsel Da-
vid DuVivier.
DuVivier contended that the Ap-
pellate Division's decision saying
the telephone operator jobs should
be filled only by telephone oper-
ator eligibles was illegal because
the sergeants have been doing
that work for years. Spiegel con-
tended that the Appellate Di-
vision’s decision was legal. The
Court of Appeals’ decision will be
final,
This is the third appearance of
this 17-month-old wrangle in the
high court. Three other innings
were played in Special Term, Su-
preme Court, and three in the Ap-
pellate Division,

At present 66 deputy sheriffs,

salaries ranging from $1,500 to
$3,500. The exact number of dep-
uties needed under the reor-
ganization and the salaries
which they will receive have
not been determined yet, It is
expected that a more uniform sal-
ary schedule will be worked out
than the one in effect at the pres-
ent time. As the men held over
from last year are deputies in key
spots, the number of positions to
be filled will most likely approxi-
mate the number of those now
employed,

Councilmen Disagree
About Value of Probe
ntinued sniping.”
Thus, City Councilman Stanley
M. Isaacs characterized this week
the Council vote of 17 to 7 that
re-established the special com-
mittee digging into the Municipal
Civil Service Commission and
Paul Kern, its aggressive presi-
dent,
Quick, keen-minded Mr. Isaacs,
reviewing his dissenting vote in
the matter, charged nothing of
any substance has yet been
brought cut in the inquiry into
Mr. Kern’s domain and the Muni-
cipal Civil Service to “warrant
the continued existence of the
committee.”
Snapped Mr. Isaacs, palpably
annoyed:
“Civil Service has made the
greatest advances in its history
during the past six years. And
who's responsible for much of
that if not Mr. Kern? Not a thing
of any value has been brought
out in this investigation to justify
carrying it any further.”
ade Scapegoat
went on to point to Mr.
Kern's ‘useful job of purging
Civil Service of its background of
corruption and inefficiency’ and
held that Mr. Kern, instead of be-
ing repaid for his efforts

Councilman John M. Christen-
sen, of Queens, a member of the
investigating committee, dis-
agreed with Mr. Isaacs’ “sniping” ‘J
contention.
“This committee was appointed
primarily to give legal status to
the whole setup and its counsel,
Emil K. Ellis, who has been ap-
pearing before the Court of Ap-
peals in Albany to get Mayor La-
Guardia to obey the committee's
instructions.”
Councilman Anthony J. Digio-
vanna, also a member of the com-
mittee, agreed entirely with this
viewpoint.
Mr. LaGuardia has pointed to
his immunity from the com-
mittee’s process (this immunity,
incidentally, was denied in the
lower courts) on the ground of
the tripartite division of govern-
ment — legislative, executive,
judicti
Sees Valid Reasons
Added Mr. Christensen:
“This committee has no indica-
tion of telling at the moment
what it will next set out to ex-
pose. But one thing is sure: it
has valid reasons for seeking to
clean up the work of the old com-
mittee.”
The Members
The new committee, headed by
Councilman William M. McCarthy
(Mr. McCarthy refused to enlarge
upon the new committee's reason
for its existence), also contains
the following members: Louis
Cohen, Salvatore Ninfo, George
Donpvan, Frederick Schick, Mr.
Digiovanna and Mr. Christensen.
Joseph T. Sharkey, Brooklyn
Democrat and majority leader,
has revealed the committee in-
tends to probe several matters
that have come up since the close
of previoug hearings.
TESTS
City Orders
New Exams
An open-competitive examina-
tion for stenographer, grade 2,
and promotion tests for clerk,
grade 2, and clerk, grade 3, were
among 22 examinations ordered
by the Municipal Civil Service
Commissicn this week.
Included in an unusually large
number of promotion tests are
8 for employees of the subway
system. Altogether, the 18 pro-
motion examinations ordered con-
stitute the largest group of
popular promotion tests scheduled
in some time, Both clerk tests,
the subway exams for special
patrolman, grade 2, and main-
tainer’s helper, group B, and the
promotion to sergeant-on-acque-
duct are expected to attract many
qualified city emplo:
The exact date for the issuance
and receipt of the applications
has not been set yet by the Com-
mission. The “ordering” of the
tests means that the Commis-
sion's examining division can go
ahead setting the requirements.
As soon as the requirements are
seteand the application date an-
nounced, full details will appear
in The LEADER.

Test Coming
For Life-Guards
Help Wanted: Life-Guards!
Last month the Municipal Civil
Service Commission issued appli-
cations for lifeguards. Only 200
candidates applied. Next sum-
mer, the Park Department will
need 400 lifeguards to protect the
city's beaches, There are at pres-
ent 96 on a preferred list.
Result will be the feannounce-
ment of the lifeguard examina-
tion with a lower age limit and
the possibility that the test may
be opened to persons residing out-
side of New York City. No date
has been set yet for the re-
announcement of the test, but it
is expected that this may be done
about Easter Week, because of
the number
will be able to apply at that time.
‘The actual examination: for life-
guard is a highly exacting one.
First candidates must demon-
strate their ability to swim 50
meters in at least 35 seconds.
‘They will receive no mark on this
test but only those who pass it
will be eligible to compete in the
practical test.
In the practical test candidates
will be expected to demonstrate
abiilty to swim in the surf, to
operate a catamaran for rescue
purposes, to break hold, to dive
for bodies and technique in land
carry and in approved methods
for resuscitation,
NoChange InRating
Of Welfare Exam
A request that the passing mark
for the assistant supervisor, grade
2, and supervisor, grade 3, exam-
inations be set at 70 per cent for
the entire examinations
of 70 per cent for individual parts
of these examinations was denied
by the Civil Service Commission
at its meeting last week. In order
to fill the request, the Commis-
sion pointed out, an additional
staff of 6 raters wouid be needed.
No Chance for
High Clerk Test
A request by Fearson Short-
ridge, manager of the New York
City Punnel Authority caac an
examination for clerk, grade 5,
be ordered, was denied by the
Civil Service Commission at its
meeting last week.
In denying the request, the
Commission pointed out that with
the establishment of the admi-i
trative service several years £g0,
few clerk, grade 5, promotions
have been ordered. Instead, it
has been the practise to order
both open-competitive and promo-
tion tests for the title of junior
administrative assistant, the low-
est title in the administrative ser-
vice. The minimum salary for
this title, $3,000, is the same as
the minimum for clerk, grade 5.
In requesting the examinat’on
Mr. Shortridge stated that no
persons now employed in his de
partment are on any promotion
list for junior administrative as
sistant. He stated that it was not
the purpose of the Authority to
appoint to administrative posi
tions persons from an open-com
petitive list when employees of
the Authority are eligible for pro
motion.

Preparation for Civil Service Examinations

\ recent trend in Civil Service exams is the inclusion of questions
esting the candidate's judgment and ability to reason logically, ‘The

yurk State examinations for the positions of clerk, typist, and stenog-

THE SYLLOGISM
his form of questioning is based on one of the principles of logic,
psually referred to as the SYLLOGISM. It is one of the methods in
jogical reasoning used to solve problems, argue intelligently, or more
ommonly, to draw correct conclusions,
: Suppose you have a date with your girl friend. You are
t Times Square in a half hour. The problem of nsporta-
8 itself; a problem in which time is the important factor, You
‘9 reason, and your trend of thought takes this form: |

s trip is a journey to Times Square by subway.
vefore, this trip Will likely take one half hour, Or suppone your
mis one of direction, For example: ‘What is the direction of
va Scotia from New Yori? You might reason thus: *

Helen is the mother vf Joan.
Therefore, Charles is the grandfather of Joan,

roadway is parallel to Sixth Avenue,
Thercfore, 42nd Street is at right angles to Sixth Avenue,
HYPOTHETICAL SYLLOGISM
Sometimes our reasoning is displayed in the form of a hypothetical
yyllogism; that $s, the conclusion is built on one or more condi-
tional propositions:
If a man is blind he needs a guide
Mr. Brown is blind,
Therefore, Mr, Brown needs a guide.
You will note, then, that the syllogism is composed of three state-
ments, referred to as propositions, The last statement is the conclu-
sion that naturaly follows from the other two. The two propositions
that imply the conclusion are called the premises, Of these two, the
universal ov broader statement is known as the Major Premise; the
narrow or limited statement is the Minor Premise,
Logical arrangement indicates the following order:
Firat—The Major Pre
Second—The Minor P:
Third—The Conclusion.
You will note, likewise, that there is a part in each premise which
ls common to them both, and that there is also a common part between
each of the premises and the conclusion, In the syllogism,
Charles is the father of Helen,
Helen is the mother of Joan,
Therefore, Charles is the grandfather of Joan,
Helen” is common to the two premises, and ‘Charles’ is common
to tlle Major Premise and the Conclusion,
Sometimes the syllogism may be expressed in algebraic form:
Is _¥ If anything js X it js ¥
or % is
Therefore, Z is ¥.
or If anything 4 A’ it Is not B
Cis
‘Therefore, C is not B, or,

The Municipal Civil Service

parative wage scales, Paul J.

sion, told The LEADER this week,

budget for 1942-43 affecting his
department,
Calling for $2,500 to be added to
his own $8,000 salary figure and
to the $6,500 salaries of Commis-
sioners Wallace $8. Sayre and
Ferdinand Q. Morton, Mr. Kern
told The LEADER that his de-
partment actually is asking a 12
per cent pay increase while
adding a 25 per cent load to its
departmental duties.
Says It's a Saving
“This is fair enough,"’ said he,
“and certainly effecting enough
of a saving to satisfy Mayor La-
Guardia’s demands for curtailing
the budget in city departments.”
Mr. Kern pointed out that the
number of competitive class em-
ployees {n the Commission's
jurisdiction has increased in the
past 8 years from 45,000 to 120,000
and that the budget for his
domain has increased only
“scarcely.” In fact, he added,
“if fees collected be deducted, the
budget has actually decreased.””
During the past six years, Mr.
Kern argues, work has been in-
creasing in direct ratio to the de-
crease in salaries for Commission
employees. In 1935, he said, the
average wage for these workers
was $2,462, while it was $1,890 in
1041,
Mr, Kern stressed the fact that
the low salary standards are
causing wholesale resignations
and transfers to other depart-
ments,
“You see,” Mr, Kern reflected,
“on a per capita basis this Com-
mission has the lowest rate of ap-
propriation per city employee of
the municipal, State and Federal
Civil Service Commissions."”
he huge burden of replacing
transferred employees, training
men to replace those being called
into the military services, aiding
in the defense recruitment pro-
gram, necessitates the increases
called for, Mr. Kern added.
The Commission is asking for
841 for 1942-43 as against
69 in the current budget.

LISTS
U. S. Canvasses
New York City Lists
Cooperation between the U. S.
Civil Service Commission and
city and State commissions on
the mater of finding recruits for
defense jobs moved into high
gear last week.
Major event of the week: the
City. Commission sent over to the
Federal Commission the names of
307 engineers and architects on a
number of preferred lists, Many
of these people have been recent-
ly laid off because of defense pri-
orities, In addition, the namés of
28 Tunnel Authority engineers to
be dropped January 31 were also
sent over. Federal authorities
will consider the persons on these
lists to determine their value to
the war effort.

The Federal Commission last
week circularized 400 eligibles re-
maining on the city stenographer,
grade 2, list as well as “‘ineligi-
bles who failed this test, for
Washington jobs at $1,440. The
response, it is learned, has been
none too good. Those who pass
a federal exam will get probation-
al indefinite appointments in
Washington, The Federal Com-
mission also submitted to appro-
priate defense agencies the names
of qualified translators who had
filed for the city’s scheduled test
for interpreter.
‘The stenographer lists of the
State Civil Service Commission
are also being canvassed for
Washington appointments.

portation last week to fill tem-
porary vacancies at 63e per hur.
The highest eligible reached was

One job as a maintenance man
in the Department of Correction
will be filled from the group A,

this job which pays $1,200 per
year.

PENSIONS
Mayor vs.
Retirements
Aroused by Mayor LaGuardia’s
dramatic, highly- publicized ap-
pearance before the trustees of
the Police Pension Fund last
Monday, requesting them to hold
up retirements of patrolmen un-
der 5 years of age, the rank and
file of the city's police force is
awaiting with keen interest the
outcome of the court order this
‘Thursday in Supreme Court, Spe-
cial Term, Part One. The order,
served on the trustees of the Po-
lice Pension Fund by attorneys
for two patrolmen who were de-
nied the right to retire, compels
the Police Pension Fund to pay
the retirement benefits applied
for.
Who They Are
The patrolmen who, through
their attorney, James H. Tully,
are bringing the action against
the trustees of the pension fund
as a test case, are Daniel J. Mul-
lady, 107th precinct, and Frank X.
McFarland, 108th precinct. Mc-
Farland, appointed to the depart-
ment-as a patrolman on February
26, 1919, applied for retirement
January 2, 1942, Mullady was ap-
pointed December 30, 1921, and
applied for his retirement Decem-
ber 11, 1941, to take effect on the
last day of the year, December

First Appearance
LaGuardia, who never befor
had attended a meeting of
Police Pension Fund, pleaded with
the trustees of the Fund
not to grant “mass retirements in
wartime,” as it would place a
‘stigma’ on the department. On
his notice, the application of 11
patrolmen who were under fifty:
five years of age was held over
for the February meeting of the
Pension Fund. All of the patrol
men had served. at least a mini
mum of the 20 years required
for retirement,
Close Vote

plea, his notice to hold up the
pensions of the 11 applicants won

State Civil Service Commission.
For the first time, no maximum
age limit has been set. The mini-
mum age is 16, Moreover, they
won't have to meet stringent
physical requirements any mori
‘The reason for both development:
apparently, is the labor shortago
created in many fields by the
war.

cants may be placed are the Man-
hattan State and Brooklyn State
Hospitals, in Manhattan and
Brooklyn, respectively; the Psy-
chiatric Institute, in Manhattan,

od, Husbands and wives may
have their own quarters. Mainte-
nance is included for all workers.

@ knowledge of English (reading
and writing as well as speaking),
and the ability to understand
oral and written directions. The
duties include routine work, car-
ing for patients during amuse-
ment and exercise periods, and
keeping written records.
Application may be obtained at
the offices of the State Civil Serv-
ice Commission, 80 Center street,

PAY RAISES
In Accordance
With Living Cost
LBANY, — This week, New
York State will see the introduc-
tion of a bill calling for a unique,
reaching pay raise plan, Prod-
uct of long research by the Asso-
ciation of State vil Service
Employees, the crux of the plan
is that salaries of State employees
would be calculated in terms of
buying power,
Harold J, Fisher, president of
the Association, this week out-
lined the plan, Said Mr. Fisher:
“Civil Service employees face
three inescapable realities
1, The cost of living has risen
r 10 per cent in the past 8
months and is still rising at the
rate of 1 per cent per month, +
2, State employees are pro-
hibited from receiving any com-
pensation for overtime.
3. ‘The salaries of State em-
ployees cannot be permitted to re-
main stationary while salaries in
private employment constantly
rise with the increased cost of liv-
ing
In Terms of Real Wages
‘To meet these ‘realities,’ the
bill sponsored by the Association
provideq that:
1, Salarles of State employees
should be calculated in terms of
real wages, not money wages. An
employee should receive the same
buying power rather than the
same amount of dollars by adjust-
ing salaries to correspond with
finetuations in the cost of living.
2. Salaries should rise as the
cost of living rises and fall as the
cost of living falls.
3. Increases are proposed at the
rate of 10% on salaries below
$2,000; 5% on salaries trom $2,000

to $5,000; 21% on salaries above

Tried Elsewhere
Mr. Fisher points out that the
plan is no untried experiment, A
similar plan has been in operation
in St. Paul, Minnesota, since 1922,
and in Canada, since 1939, Nor
would the plan be difficult to ad-
minister, according to its spon-
sors,
‘As a final reason for its adop-
tion, Mr. Fisher feels that wide
acceptance of the plan would tend
to curb inflation.
Meanwhile, it is known that
several State legislators are work-
ing on other pay-raise bills which
may be introduced within the
coming week or two,
* WAR
Guarding
State Buildings
State Superintendent of Public
Works Arthur W. Brandt, in stat-
ing that he does not intend to use
the Prison Guard list—at least not
for the present—in recruiting help
for protecting State property, ex-
plained to The LEADER this
procedure in keeping State build-
ings guarded:
“We are using our own men so
far as possible. We are taking
them from maintenance crews
where available gnd deputizing
them and training them for guard
duty, We strive to enlist men for
guard duty who reside near-by or
in the counties where the prop-
erty protected is located,’*
At the moment the department
has put guards (two men to a
shift, two shifts a day) at 28 st
tegic bridges. In addition, guards
have been employed for Hinckley
and Delta reservoirs on the canal
system and about 20 will be re-
Muted to guard State, buildings
in Albany,
Governor Lehman has approved
& loan of $40,000, pending formal
budget action later, to buy shot-
guns for the guards. Pay is $100
to $125 a month,

Public
PROBE —
First Move in State
Civil Service Probe
ALBANY.—As The LEADER
predicted last week, a broad
legislative investigation of New
York State civil service was pro-
posed to the Legislature last eve-
ning in a resolution introduced
by Assemblyman Fred Hollowell,
Yates Republican.
The Assemblyman said that an
investigation such as lie proposes
should determine the existing
procedure and methods adopted
by the State Civil Service Com-
mission with reference to:
1, Ratings in oral examinations;
2. Ratings in competitive and non-
competitive examinacion
3. Ratings accorded to employees
in ‘promotional examinations;
4. The nature of the examination
given and the subject matter of
the examination as related to the
duties of the position to be filled;
5. The manner and method of ap-
Peintments from certified eligible
st
6. The ade
for impartial
Ployees.
Mr, Hollowell said that two cir-
cumstances had prompted him to
introduce the resolution.
“The first,’ he said, ‘is that in
July many counties of the state
will come under the control of
the State Civil Service for the
first time. The second is that for
some time, particularly during
the past year, many instances
have been called to my attention
of apparent failure of. the pres-
ent law and of its administration
to give to the citizens of the State
the type of civil service they have
a right to expect. Many rumors
float about the State regarding
the status of our civil service sys-
tem.””
$25,000 Appropriation
The committee, consisting of
four Assemblymen and four Sen-
ators, would be financed by a
$25,000 appropriation to defray
counsel and other expenditures
and would be required to report
its findings to the Legislature
April 15, 193.
NEW BILLS
Thousands of Jobs
Seen in Drastic Bill
Public Health Item
Would Alter
Medical Practice
ALBANY — Virtually thou-
sands of new state jobs would be
created and the private practice
of medicine would be threatened
if the proposal of Assemblyman
Harry Gittleson, Brooklyn law-
yer, ever should become law in
its present form.
Mr. Gittleson’s bill, 13 pages
long, is the most sweeping and
drastic public health -measure
ever introduced in the Legisla-
ture. It carries a modest appro-
priation of but half a million dol-
lars, admittedly but a starter in
the legislator’s ambitious project
of providing free surgical, medi-
cal, and hospitalization services
for everybody in the state.

Health Activities in One Unit
Under his plan, Mr, Gittleson
would place the proposed publia
health unit in the State Health
Department. He would boost the
sal of the Commissioner of
ealth from $12,000 to $15,000 and
e him with three deputies,
,000 a year each,
ery activity of every other
te department or agency bears
ing on health, however remotely,
would be transferred to the reor-
ganized Health Department,
which in personnel and power
would overshadow any three
other state agencies,
Civil Service
While the Governor would ap:
point the deputies, all others of
the prospective thousands of em-
ployees would be taken from Civil
Service lists, The bill provides for
no staff salaries under $2,000 a
year except for internes and
nurses, The scale included in the
measure provides: internes, from
$600 to $1,200 a year plus mains
tenance; junior physicians and
dentists, $2,000 to $2,750; assist-
ant physicians and dentists, $3,000
to $3,750; associate physicians and
dentists, $4,000 to $4,750; senior
physicians and dentists, $5,000 to
$6,000; specialists and consultants,
$7,500 to $10,000; pharmacists,
$2,400 to $3,900; nurses, $1,200 to
$2,000; technicians and laboratory
workers, $2,500 to $4,000; chief of
service, $7,500; division directors,
$10,000 a year each,
Subsidies to Students
One of the unique provisions of
the bill provides for use of pub-
lic sudsidies if trained men and
women do not step forward to
take positions in the new set-up.
The measure says that if the re-
sponse isn't sufficient to staff tho
department then recruitments
will be made from among “stu
dents and prospective students,
each of whom would get a pub-
lic subsidy of $1,000 a year for
training upon agreement to join
the staff upon being graduated
and to remain with the staff at
least three years,
JOBS
Works Dept. Men
Face Lay-off
ALBANY. — Agreement between
Governor Lehman and the Repub-
lican legislative leaders, indicated
in separate public statements, to
shelve practically all _ public
buildings construction this year
will mean the shelving also of
many employees in the State Pub-
lic Works Department.
Layoffs Due July 1
The repercussions will affect
mainly the Public Works staff of
architects, construction superin-
tendents and building engineers,
The lay-offs will come July 1,
with the beginning of the new
fiscal year, when present appro-
priations expire,
How many will be dropped is
uncertain at the moment, but the
number will be comparatively
large. Most of the employees
forced to leave will be keymen,
men with service records of 10
or 12 years or more, It is prob-
able that most of them will quick-
ly find places In the Federal or
private service but their de-
parture will about wreck the
heart and backbone of the depart-
ment.

Future vacancies on the Federal

possible, by appointment from ex-
isting State lists, or from State

prior to July 1. If no Federal

Paying the Doctor
BILL was introduced in the City Council last
A week by Walter R. Hart, calling for the restora-
tion of per annum pay to the city’s doctors and
dentists, Two years ago the Board of Estimate, against
almost solid opposition, removed the guarantees of per
annum pay. Doctors and dentists are now on a per diem
basis—paid by the day, when they work. No rational
justification was ever provided for this backward step,
and what it has done to the morale of a fine, loyal group
of city workers is nobody's business,
The doctors and dentists have fought through the
courts for restoration of per annum pay. The decisions
have gone against them.
Councilman Hart's bill is a good bill.

budget hearing involving the president of the
Civil Service Commission and a councilman, in the
course of which the councilman said he would have
the commission’s budget reduced when it reached the
council.
It seems to us that whatever the personal feelings of
city officials toward each other, these feelings ought not
to extend to the point where the efficient operation of
city departments is hampered. The work of the Civil
Service Commision is increasing because of the war. To
reduce its budget now, when the number of applicants
for city jobs is increasing, when a number of important
tests are in the offing, when the Federal Government is
asking the cooperation of the city commission, is cer-
tainly not the thing to do.

ment of Hospitals, who now al-
ready work six days a week and
receive about sixteen dollars be-
lieve the action taken by the
Mayor was taken in bad faith since
we not directly in a defense
position where we are producing
place an additional burden upon us.
We are entitled to our work and
see no reason why we shall have
to make wholesale resignations,
People working in actual defense
positions are making at least sixty
dollars a week and getting paid
time and a half or double for ex-
tra work week, If the Mayor
doesn’t rescind his order, we intend
to resign in force and go into de-

that now exist according to his own
statement?

‘These contests hadn't anything to

... and matters of that kind, Year

give other towns a chance, New
Haven had to be excluded from

One morning somebody phoned
Dr. Rice, who was New Haven's
Health Commissioner, ‘Would you
be interested in being Health Com-
missioner of New York?! asked
The Voice
There were one or two talks after
that, nothing very definite, One
day The Voice phoned again.
“Come down January 1, and be

physicians, and has many pleces of
excellent medical innovations to ite
credit,
‘What remains to be done?
Dr, Rice summarizes: We need
to study ways of reducing the acc!-
dent rate, We must enlarge our
nutrition program—particularly im-
portant In time of war. We must
do more work in stemming the
tide of gonorrhea, with the help of
the new sulfa drugs. Infant mor-
tality Is still too high, and obstetri
cal care requires more considera-
tion, We must look into the ills
of an aging population—cancer,
diabetes, heart disease,
So Dr, Rice's work is far froin
finished, But the war may slow It
PLEASE
Ask the Commission
©.A.; If you have not yet been
summoned for the remaining
parts of your medical examination
on the fireman test, we suggest
that you get in touch with the
Civil Service Commission imme-
diately, Perhaps they do not have
your correct address, We think
that you should have been called
by now from your standing on the
list.
Can’t Tell Chance
Of U. S. Appointment
S.P.F.: Sorry, but we cannot
estimate your chances for ap-
pointment on the federal list for
translator as the U. 8. Civil Ser-
vice Commission does not release
these lists for publication, There
is no way of determining your
standing on this list, even though
your rating on the test would
seem to be fairly good, We do
not advise you writing to the
Commission ‘in Washington for
your relative standing at the pres-
ent time.
Transfer Not a Right
L.B.: A transfer in the federal
service is a privilege, not a right,
In order to obtain a transfer, you
must first find a vacancy in a
department for which you are
qualified. Then, you must obtain
approval of the heads of both the
department to which you want to
transfer and your own department
in order to affect the transfer,
The appointing officer of the de-
partment can fill his vacancy by
appointing you, by appointing
someone secking reinstatement or
by appointing someone from a
qualified eligible list,
N.Y.C.—U.S. Cooperate
On Recruitment
S.P.F.: In order to meet the exi-
gencies of defense recruitment,
the U. 8. Civil Service Commis
sion has requested other Civil Ser-
vice Commissions for rosters of
qualified eligibles, ‘This is the rea-
son why the n&mes of those who
filed for the city interpreter test
were sent to the federal commis-
sion,
Guard Applications
B.P.; The U, 8. Civil Service
Commission is not receiving ap-
plications for customs guard st
the present time. If you wish, you
may obtain an application for de
partmental guard for appointment
in Washington, D, C. only, The
application can be obtained at the
local office of the U. 8, Civil Ser

Chinese Story
They're spreading the story be-
ing told by Chu Hseuhfan, presi-
dent of the Chinese Association of
Labor and National Union of
Postal Workers, who was a co-
delegate to the recent Internation-
al Labor Organization Confer-
ences in this country, To gain
wage boosts, Chinese postal em-
ployees in occupied cities walk
out every time they can think of
a grievance, which is nearly
always. And they don’t picket;
they merely issue manifestos,
handbills and releases to the
newspapers (the papers print the
releases, too). ‘We do not wish to
inconvenience the patrons,’ says
Chu, a yeteran of five postal
strikes, speaking in the conven-
tionally polite Chinese vein, ‘“‘and
so we urge them not to use
stamps while we continue to dis-
tribute their mail, So the stamp
windows are closed and the
strikes end quickly," Incidentally,
Chu and his colleagues ignore
Japanese bombers until a third
alarm is sounded; then they
plunge Into a refuge excavated
below the post office building.

Congressmen are ‘with them’? in
the matter of the final disposition
of longevity. The Senatorial group

makes good reading,
McCRARY: It takes 14 civilians to equip and supply every Amerl«
can soldier on the field. If our army reaches 3,500,000 within one year,
this means a staggering total of industrial manpower,
We need an
industrial army of trained experts, skilled and semi-skilled workers
who know how to handle powerful
machines, to make our planes,
tanks, guns. Frankly, we haven't got that industrial army today, We

and I wanted to get into this defense work to help beat Hitler,

They told me that I would have to go to the State Employment Service
and register, So I went there, but they told me my chances of taking

I can’t understand why they don’t let me enter the defense program
where I can be of real use in beating Hitler,
McCRARY: Couldn't you go anywhere else for training?
JOB: Maybe so, but I haven't been able to find out where to get
the information,
McCRARY: You'te right, Joe, One of the weaknesses of our train
ing program is the lack of a centralized office for such information,
But the best job done so far in getting this information has been done
by a weekly newspaper, which you can buy for 5 cents on any news-

It's The Civil Service LEADER, and it hag gathered all the

For instance,

The tables have turned, and in
this yarn we find Hollywood's

tivities of an espionage ring, em-
ploying the same tactics used
against his former rival mobs.
From start to finish Director Vin-
cent Sherman keeps us on edge as
we watch our hero match wits
and daring with a group who
know not the reason why Ameri-
cans love this side of the ocean.

will. Not to be overlooked, is that
this thrilling melodrama contains
a lot of hilarious laughs, well ap-
preciated by the Strand audience
Jane Darwell, as Mrs. Donahue,
mother of Gloves, does well, and
is surrounded by an excellent cast
featuring Conrad Veidt, Peter

Barton McLane and Martin Kos-
leck. Well, Warner Brothers did
it again, except this time they
have crowded a double faature
into 107 minutes of exciting
moments. On the stage, Georgie
Price, Impressionist of Songs, en-
tertains by giving his impressions
of your favorite stars, and Bob
Chester furnishes the rhythms
that make him and the orchestra
the nation’s newest favorite,
