Court Denies
Overtime to
The Firemen

Supreme Court Justice
William C. Hecht dismissed
the complaint in the case of
NYC firemen seeking over-
time pay, holding that their
salary was fixed in the bud-
get at $3,000, that the Ad-
ministrative Code provides
that they may be called on for
extra tours of duty during
emergencies, and that the

| plaintiffs could point to no

statutory obligation requir-
ing the City to pay them
extra.

He held that the war created
emergency conditions, due to man-
power shortage, under which Fire
Commissioner Walsh had author-
ity to order the overtime work.

The suit was brought in the
names of two members of the
Uniformed Piremen's Association,
John P. Crane and John W. Bonl-
fer. Since the commencement of
the action Mr. Crane has been
elected president of the UPA.

The firemen charged that the
overtime saved the City $1,250,000
because of the extra work with-
out compensation. Individually,
the men demanded $172.80 for
overtime from January 1, 1944,
when the overtime order went in-
to effect, until April 29, 1944. Had
the plaintiffs won, payment for
subsequent periods would have
been cumulative.

Court Cites Nature of Duties

In his opinion Justice Hecht
said:
“The ‘overtime’ referred to in

the complaint consisted of addi-~
tional tours of duty required of
firemen over and above the nore
mal requirements of the three-
Platoon system,

“I find no authority to support
the plaintiffs’ claim that when,
in an emergency, they are com-
pelled to work overtime, they are
entitled to be paid for such ex-
tra work. The very nature of
their duties requires them to be
in readiness to meet emergencies,
and I can see no distinction be-
tween an emergency created by an
unusually large and widespread
conflagration and one created by
the potentially dangerous condi-~
tions existing in this city from
January 1, 1944 to April 29, 1044
because of the war. Whatever
adjustments, if any, are made in
respect to giving firemen addi~
tional time off because of extra
| service, is a matter of depart~
| mental policy,”

The court quoted section 487a-
8.0 of the Administrative Code

}and said. “The fixation of the
| plaintiffs’ salary at $3,000 per
annum (in that section) bars

them from recovering any addi-
tional compensation from the city
for any services performed by

them.”

Justice Hecht said that the
provision of the Administrative
Code estublishing the three-pla+
toon system makes p special ex
ception “in the event of confla-
grations, riots or other similar
emergencies—in which event such
platoons or members thereof shall

Employees Back Bill

To Pay All Who

Lose U. S. Jobs

WASHINGTON, July 24.—The Kilgore unemployment compensation bill for U. S.
workers during reconversion, is preferred by officials of Federal employee organizations
over similar legislation introduced in the House by Representative Doughton chairman

of the House Ways and Me:

Union chiefs believe the Kilgore

measure offers far greater benefits
for Federal workers, placing all
under # standard system, includ-
ing “war duration” employees. A
Government worker who lost his
job during reconversion would be
paid up to 66 per cent of his
earnings in a 13-week base period,
estimated on the year preceding
dismissal. The maximum payment

would be $25 a week for 26 weeks|

of any calendar year.
Means More Money

The Doughton bill, however,
provides unemployment compen-
sation based on standards of the
State in which a Federal worker
fs employed. Most State unem-
ployment benefits are lower than
66 per cent of a worker's highest
weekly pay check. This, of course,
would mean Jess income from
compensation for many Govern-
ment workers.

It 1s proposed under both bills
to supplement State money for
unemployment benefit, with Fed-
eral cash to bring payments up
to two-thirds of earnings, to the
$25 maximum. States would have
the right to reject the plan.

Union leaders also object to the
Doughton provision that the pay-
ments would not go into effect
until! 600,000 persons in the coun-
try were receiving compensation.

United Federal Workers of

‘ans Committee,

America (CIO) estimates that
actual unemployment of 2,000,-
000 people would have to prevail
before any Government employee
would get any benefits under the
Doughton plan. They contend that
the 600,000 would not represent all
unemployed, as large groups of

| workers,

ployees, are not covered by com-
pensation and would not be re-
| ported as unemployed.
| ‘The unions state that the Kil-
| gore bill provides transportation
for unemployed workers who get
jobs in other cities. Union critics
| claim, however, that both bills fail
to meet their demands for trans-

portation home for all released |

Government workers
war,

The American Federation of
Government Employees (AFL) has
announced its support of the Kil-
gore bill, and National Federation
of Federal Employees has express-
ed its approval, adding that pas

after the

sage of the Doughton bill would)

also be acceptable.

The measures were introduced
in response to President Truman's
request for legislation to ease the
shock of Federal unemployment
during reconversion.

Murray Discusses Coverage
In a letter in response to @

ineluding Federal em-|

brief subnfitted by the CIO, Sen-
ator James E, Murray wrote that
he is very much interested in
proposals for extending social se-
curtty coverage to Federal Gov-
ernment employees. However, he
| added:

“The Wagner-Murray-Dingell Bill
| does not include provisions for
| protecting the social security
rights of war duration Govern-
ment employees.”

It is his opinion that such pro-
tection should be achieved by
emergency legislation rather than
in connection with “the compre-
| hensive expansion and improve-
| ment of the social security pro-
gram embodied in the Wagner-
| Murray-Dingell Bill.”

contained in the bill introduced
by Chairman Doughton. He be-
Neves that no action will be taken
on it until Fall.

“This apathetic attitude is ex-
tremely dangerous to your chan~-
ces of getting unemployment in-
surance when you leave your
War-Service job" said the CIO,
“If you want such insurance, you
must make yourself heard, Write
to your Representative once a
| week, Tell him that it is impera-
tive that the House take up and
pass this legislation soon.”

War Employees Protest Cut

WASHINGTON, July 24—Some 5,000 War Department

So 8 Subway Men
Will Get Back Pay

A controversy as old as the subways under New York

City’s ownership has come to an end.

The question in-

yolved: Should the City pay the claims of employees who

had been dismissed for non-~

itizenship, and then re-hired

after they had obtained citizenship?

A relatively large number of the
men had been non-citizens

when the lines were privately op-
erated. But when the City took
over the underground transit fa-
Cilities, the law required that all
the men working had to be citi-
zens. Those who did not acquire
Sm ig were subject to dis-

mone, controversy ended victorl-
ously for the men, The Transport
Workers Union, which had inter-
ested itself in their case, won
from the City a determination
favoring the men, who will re-
ceive amounts varying from
$61.47 to $508.72. The victory

came when the Comptroller sent |
a leter to the Board of Transpor- |

tation, requesting that the board
prepare payrolls on the claim of
the eight men involved. The pay-
ments are subject to deductions
due the State for unemployment
insurance, which several of the
claimants collected during the
period between dismissal and re-

Women Cleaners
Get $60 Raise

About 60 female cleaners in the
Department of Public Works will
get a $60 increase in pay, bring-
ing their total to $1,200, as the

result of a solution of a depart-

ment pay problem worked out by
Budget Director Thomas J. Pat-
terson. Those benefited had been

earning $1,140.

The American Federation of
State, County and Municipal Em-
ployees (AFL) originally requested
equalization, so that those getting

$1,040 were brought up to $1,140.

Howover, that left those who had
been previously getting $1,140) ;
without any increase. Therefore
the $60 was asked, and granted,

Sanitation Dept.
‘Extends Perles
Of Vacation

The NYC Sanitation Depart-
ment has extended its vacation
period until the first week in Oo-
tober. This has been necessary,
Sanitation officials explain, be-
cause it would have been impos-
sible to perform the job of street~
cleaning properly with the avail-
able force if too great a number
were to go off on vacation at any
given time. The average vacation
period for Sanitation employees
is three weeks.

Sanita, the vacation resort set
up by Commissioner William F.
Carey exclusively for employers
of the Sanitation Department and
their families, has been running
“full up" this summer. The “pull-
manettes,” which house Sanita
vactioners, accommodate 125
families, with each family num~-
bering four to six people. The
average total population of the
resort is 1,000 people.

A new bakery has been built
there this year, and now cakes,
pies and rolls are furnished pip-|
ing hot to the customers. Brea
still comes from the outside. The
resort also sports its own dough-

High Transit Jobs
May Be Shifted

A proposal to take top transit
jobs out of the competitive class
of Civil Service and place them in
the non-competitive class will be
considered by the Municipal Civil
Service Commission at a public
hearing.

As non-competitive positions,
the Jobs would be filled by the
Civil Service Commission through
qualifying examinations instead
of by competitive tests, according
to the Civil Service Law which
allows such action where com-
petitive examinations are imprac-
teable.

Affected by the proposed change
are the posts of Superintendent,
Assistant General Superintendent
and General Superintendent, in
the Board of Transportation.

Salary ranges for these jobs are
high — Assistant Superintendent,
$6,001 to $8,000 a year; Superin-
tendent, $8,001 to $10,000; Assist-
ant Genera! Superintendent, $10,-

No. 1 Eligible Designed
And Built Own House

Edward J. Schwarz isn’t like most men, a total loss
around the house, In fact, the missus finds him too handy,
because it is often difficult to tear him away from his
home tasks so that papa, mamma and the two kid§ can

go out for an airing.

Mr. Schwarz {s the man who
distinguished himself the other
day by placing first on the city-
wide promotion list for Mainte-
nance Man. He got 88 per cent,
and isn’t surprised,, because he's
@ carpenter by trade, and has
been working for the city in that
Iine for 18 years,

Designed and Built House

There was one occasion when
that work for the city was inter-
rupted, for the duration of his
vacation plus three months, and
that was when he built himself
a house. Not only built it, mind
you, but drew all the plans—just
like a regular architect. And the
neighbors say that the house does
| real credit to the Country Club
neighborhood of the Bronx where
it's located—1290 Lohengrin Pl,

Mr. Schwarz bought all the ma-
terial, did ail the carpentry, in-

| stalled the incinerator, framed all

the windows, laid all the trim,
and supervised the labor on the
brick work, His title may be La-
borer in the Bronx unit of the
Parks Department, but Mainte-
nance Man will sound more ritzy.
However, his pay is $1,920 now.
The notice of examination which
triggered the eligible list he now
heads said something about “$1,-
500-$1,800." So Mr. Schwarz, if
appointed, could suffer a pay re-
duction while being honored with
@ promotion,

“Undoubtedly you could be-

MEMBER AUDIT BUREAD OF CIRCULATIONS

TESDAY, JULY 24, 1945

Federal Employees Must
Deploy for New Action

OW that Federal employees have won their salary

adjustments, it becomes imperative for them to de-
ploy for action upon an advanced battlefield—the struggle
for unemployment compensation.

Not that this is a completely novel business in the
lives of Federal employees. Ever since the principle of
unemployment compensation was adopted for employees
in private industry, the Government's own Staff has con-
tended that they, too, deserve equal consideration. As the
war against closed, and the imminence of
large-scale reduction in the Federal civilian forces became
obvious, the impulse for some measure of protection
against the chill ghost of joblessness throbbed with deeper
insistence. And now, as the United States and her Allies
bring Japan to the point of knock-out, the necessity of
protecting those men and women who will lose their jobs
at war's end begins to pound strongly upon the public
consciousness,

This much must be said of the Federal “duration em-
ployee.” He took his job with the Government, stuck to
it, suffered its vicissitudes, often at great loss to himself,
Had he chosen instead to enter private industry, he might
have fared better financially, and upon a slackening of
employment would have been entitled to the cushion of
unemployment insurance during his personal reconversion
period. But as an employee of the United States Govern-
ment, he finds himself in the paradoxical position of hay-
ing been penalized during the war period by working at
lower pay (and often for longer hours); and now, if his
job goes a-glimmering, he finds that he is left without
any security at all. He's just thrown out upon his own
resources, and the Government washes its hands of any
responsibility toward him, This seems palpably unfair.

ye are no farther advanced than we were after the end

World War I, when Bernard Baruch personally povided
the cash so that the employees in his agency would be
able to return to their homes,

Whether Federal emplovees achieve unemployment
compensation via a bill directed for them alone, or via
a larger bill covering all classes of workers is, in the view
of this newspaper, immaterial. The important point
that Federal workers should not suffer as against the
social gains awarded to workers in private industry. The
Federal employee is subject to the same insecurities, and
therefore deserves the same protections, There is now
before the Senate a bill introduced by Senator Harley M.
Kilgore of West Virginia, and sponsored jointly by Sena-
tors Wagner (N. Y.), Murray (Mont.), Thomes (Utah),
Guffy (Pa.) and Pepper (Fla.), which lifts all present
unemployment benefits and covers Federal employees.
The essentials of this bill have the backing of President
Truman, It would be wise for Federal employees to get
behind it and push. The measure has, among other ad-
vantages, the less tangible one of including Federal em-
ployees generally, as part of the body of working citizens,
rather than as a class apart, to be treated differently and
often with less regard.

Merit Man

Joseph F. O'Hern

at 120 Wall Street, NYC, started

1917, and so fully represents the
career Man in Government serv-
tee,

He is Joseph F. O'Hern, He
has a personalized and friendly
way of running an office, He in-
sists on simplicity in organization
and is a stlckler for courtesy and
cooperation among his employces.
He sees that every one knows his
or her job—does the instructing
himself, if necessary—and confers
responsibility on deserving work-
ers,

A War Veteran Himself

‘The Area Office is a streamljned
production unit designed ‘to give
expeditious service to those per-
sons being medically discharged
from service. Mr, O'Hern has in
his expanding organization 93
employees. Of these 17 are World
War Il veterans, 7 are wives of
World War I veterans, 15 are
sisters or parents of World War
Il veterans and one is a widow
of a World War I veteran. There
are 15 World War I veterans on
his staff. He is such a veteran
himself.

“The World War II veterans
have demonstrated unsual inter-
est in their industriousness, at-
tention to duty and ability to
grasp knowledge of all phases of
their work,” said Mr. OHern. “All
veterans and their relatives show
added interest tr
accomplishments.”

Runarounds for veterans or
anybody else are strictly taboo.

Fast, accurate action has won him
much gratitude from veterans.
Ne

Born in
where he r
cation at St. J

h Adams, Mass,
ived his early edu-
eph's High School
and Bliss Business College, Mr
O'Hern matriculated at George-
town University School of Law in
Washington, D. C., in 1917, simul-
taneously with his first civil serv-
ice job. After serying in the Army
in World War I he completed his
legal education.

He obtained a civil service ap-
pointment as a Claims Examiner
in the War Risk Insurance Bu-
reau in 1920, He has been con-
tinuously employed in the Claims
rec Adjudication) Division since
then.

He Goes

He was assigned to the Balti-
more Office a5 an Adjudicator in
1924, and was transferred in 1927
to the Vermont office, in Burling-
ton. He was promoted to Adjudi-
cation Officer, He served in the
Central Office until December,
1934, when he was assigned as
Adjudication Officer, Veterans
Administration, Lyons, N, J, While
in this assignment Mr, O'Hern
worked under the supervision of
BE, Head, whose ability Mr
O’Hern valued highly,

The New Jersey station was a
Combined Facility, which included
& Regional Office and hospital fa-
cilities. The hospital capacity ex-
panded during his assignment
from a bed capacity of 890 to a

bed capacity of approximately
2,000. During this assignment,
Mr, O'Hern acquired a consider-

able knowledge of hospital man-

t and operation and medi-

eran

well-known among
service organizations in New
Jersey, because of a well-earned
reputation for personal service. It

strongly defended employees

appeared at this writing
that the repercussions of
their statement would be
wide. The joint statement
of the two men came as a
result of an. attack by Dr.
John R. Ross, Superintend-
ent of Poughkeepsie State
Hospital, upon employees of the
institution. Dr. Ross’ statement
had been printed by Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt in her syndicated col-
umn “My Day.” Mr, Shoro and
Mr, Gurry demanded an investi-
gation of the charges,

Dr, Ross is reported to have
said that conscientious objectors
who have been working at the hos-

tal had “raised the standards
‘or the care of patients, and that
they had been of tremendous help
in disclosing certain practices
which existed there and about
which he never before could get

manned, the 20,000 hospital em-
ployees in the Mental Hygiene in-
stitutions have been carrying the
burden of hospital care for thou-
sands of mentally ill—and work-
ing long hours to do it. The un-
supported word of conscientious
objectors or other outside critics

of the institution should not be}

accepted to discredit either the
care New York State gives to its
wards nor as an unchallenged in-
dictment of New York State Civil
Service employes, when the facts
can and should be ascertained by
Dr. Ross In the proper way through
sound personne! administration
within his hospital.

We Crave Investigation

“Employees of Hudson River
State Hospital do not fear any
honest investigation as_to the
efficiency of their work. They are
unwilling, however, to be made the
victims of gossip by conscientious
objectors or others.

“We shall request a complete
investigation of the situation at

ecepsie. It is high time
that loose statements regarding
the efficiency of the civil service

their duties and the environment in which they work entitles them
to retirement after twenty-five years of service. Now they are ready

to make a strong stand for such retirement. They find precedent in
the twenty-five-year plan now In effect for State Police. They

intend to have an actuarial survey made as an aid to convincing
the public and the Legislature of the justice of their plea,
Association, at its last annual meeting, asked liberalization of the
State's Retirement System and the twenty-five-year retirement plan
Was among progressive recommendations of the Retirement Liber-
alization Committee. The report of this Committee printed in The
LEADER and The State Employee received widespread attention
and was hailed as the most constructive plan of broader social
security concepts for public employees that has been suggested since
the State Retirement System was established in 1921. There is need
for legislative action and the way has been charted.
Typically Useful Service

A short time ago, I commented in this column on the very
worthwhile group life insurance which State employees have made
possible for themselves through their unity in the Association of
State Civil Service Employees. I would like now to call attention to
the group plan of accident and sickness insurance available because
of the same unity of membership. This plan was developed by the
Association insurance committee and estgblished in 1936 by ar-
yangement with the Commercial Casualty Insurance Company and
‘TerBush and Powell, Inc., Schenectady, N. Y. It was adopted to
provide low-cost insurance in case of accident or sickness suffered
by members of the Association. Since its inception, over a million
and one-half dollars have been paid in benefits. In many cases the
insurance, in addition to its reasonable cost, would not have been
purchaseable at all by the individual, The premiums are payable
through convenient payroll deduction plan, The details as to obtain-
ing an accident and sickness policy will be sent to any State worker
gladly, on application to Association Headquarters. (See also article
in this issue.—Ed.] ‘The splendid cooperation of State employees in
thelr Association affords a fine example of common sense and a
most substantial promise of progressive attention to employee wel-
fare throughout the years, State employees haye proven to the
world that they know the value of cooperative action of a large and
active membership. They have supplemented attention to salaries,
hours of work, promotions, health leaves, retirement and the con-
tinuous contacts with executive, legislative and administrative de-
partments of government essential to such things, with group insur-
ances purely as extra services helpful to State employees.

ALBANY, July 24—Lewis Den=

Dr, R. Ross, director of the in-

Mr. Denion brought his case

The charge against Mr. Denton

Wage Tie-In

ALBANY, July 24—-All indications point today to another en-
deavor, by the Association of State Civil Service Employees, to inter-
est the forthcoming Legislature in a new type of employee-salary
plan; one based on the rise and fall of the cost-of-living index. The
Association has for several years sponsored a bill recording this
wage formula. And feelings among Association leaders queried by
this reporter are that the principle is still sound, and must again

$1.30 to stack up with the pre-war

State would have to increase base
salary (not including bonus!

| be brought before the Legislature.

Basically, the formula is this:
that the State pay salaries based
on real wages rather than money
wages, As explained by Dr. Prank
L, Tolman, of the State Educa-
tion Department, “Real wages
mean what the money wage will
buy. Real wages will buy the same
any year. When prices are stable,
money wages and real wages hang
together. When prices go either
up or down, they part company.
High prices mean low real wages
and low prices mean higher pur-
chasing power if the money wage
remains the same.”

Bonus vs. True Wage

‘The State Legislature, with the
concurrence of the administra~
tion, voted wartime bonuses at
the 1945 session. These bonuses
must be renewed annually, and
they haye no bearing upon base
pay. While, in the view of the
State Association, the bonuses
helped the employees, they do not

Legislature were published last week. The answers are given

herewith:
1 —True. The Hammond Law
(Chapter 292) amended Sec-
tion 14-b of the Civil Service Law
to provide that in addition to the
prohibition against discrimination
on account of race, color or creed
there shall be no discrimination
because of national origin,

2- False. The special rights
relative to removal on charges
and to transfer on lay-off which
applied to exempt volunteer fire-
ment and World War I veterans
were granted also to World War
TI veterans by the Ostertag Law
(Chapter 46), Now all three oate-
gories of employees are covered
—exempt volunteer firemen, vet-
erans of World War I and veterans
of World War I.
~True, The ruling of the Court
of Appeals, in the case of
Doering y. Hinrichs, to the effect
that seniority for lay-off purposes
must be reckoned from the date
of reinstatement following a res-
ignation, was superseded by the
provisions of the Lupton Law
(Chapter 725) which provided
that a resignation followed by re-
instatement within one year shall
not constitute & break in service

visions of the Lupton Law (Chap-
ter 4413) must not exceed the
maximum salary of the new po-
sition.

Military Law Changes
—Palse. Service with the Amer-
fean Red Cross while with
the armed forces of the United
States on foreign service, not
UNRRA service, is deemed mili-
tary duty under Section 246 of
the Military Law until July 1,
1946. This provision was made by
the Ostertag Law (Chapter 137).

—Palse. The period within
which a returning war vet-
eran may request reinstatement

for lay-off purposes. Accordingly,
seniority in such cases is to bi
figured from the date of original)

appointment and not merely from |
the date of reinstatement in sery-

ee.
Pe jonas Under the Ostertag
Law (Chapter 302) the sal-
aries of Feld-Hamilton positions
were raised to @ $1,200 minimum
only if permanent, Positions not|
covered by Sec. 40 of the Civil
Service Law do not have a per-
manent $1,200 minimum salary.

ones and those in the exempt] under the terms of the Manning
class. However, seasonal

Law (Chapter 215), been extended
from 60 days to 90 days after the
termination of his military duty.

—Palse. Under the provisions of
the Manning Law (Chapter
485) the determination of the ex-
istence and termination of a tem-
porary war—incurred disability,
which extends the period of time
within which public employee
on military duty may request re-

tions, and labor class positions in
the exempt class, may be allocated
to & Section 40 grade by the Sal-|
ary Standardization Board. They
may thereby fall into the $1,200)

ciently perfoming the duties of
his position by reason of war-in-
curred injuries, to be transferred
to a position paying the same

and not to World War I veterans.
‘This right was accorded by the

1 True. A State employee on
military duty is entitled to
at least a passing grade on his
efficiency rating, or if this is less
than the average of his three
prior ratings or in less than the
rating covering the period imme-
diately preceding his military
jeave, he is entitled to higher, But
if the latter two ratings are less
than passing, the employee is en-
titled to at least a passing rating.

AVING discussed (a), coverage and inclusion and (b), pay changes, including

base pay, overtime, night differential and holiday pay, there now cemain for)

consideration within-grade increases, pay periods and personnel ceilings.

The within-grade
declared sufficient for gaining this step-up promotion,

creases are speeded up under the act, and a rating of “good”

but many of the considera-

tions are covered by rules and regulations of the United States Civil Service Commis-
sion and by administrative practice.

This article deals with the provisions of the new law, but embodies some of the

administrative procedure. |
IV. Within-Grade

Advancement

The service periods required for
attaining the next higher rate
within grade are reduced to 12
months, from 18, if the Increments
are legs than $200, and to 18
months from 20, if the increments
Are $200 or more. Limitations are
If equivalent increase was re-
ceived meanwhile, except rewards
for supertor accomplishment; cur- |
rent efficiency rating must be
“good” or better, and the serie

ment head must certify to service
uct otherwise satisfac-

tory.

Sut. 1 began the first pay period
to which the reduced service
length applies.

‘Those who left Federal positions
of any kind for service with the
Armed Forces or the Merchant
Marine, if honorably discharged,
or otherwise entitled by legal per- |
mission to reinstatement, shali be |
entitled to the advancements
without efficiency rating or cer-
tifieate of otherwise satisfactory
service. This advantage also ac-
crues to those who complied with |
war transfer regulations, but, by|
interpretation, not to those who|
transferred without such full com-|
pliance. |

Employees otherwise entitled to
reinstatement to @ permanent
position in the scope of the 1923
Classification Act are not pre-
cluded from within-grade ad~
Vancement by any of the terms of
the new law.

Methods and Definition

The commission’s regulations
provide that in any change of
efficiency rating, eligibility for
salary advancement shall be based
on the revised rating, and become
retroactive to the date the em-
ployee would have received the in-
crease had no rating error been
made.

The within-grade salary ad-
vancements apply to all officers
and employees other than those
designated by law as temporary of |
e lished for definite periods of
one year or less. Positions to
which appointments are made
under the War Service Regula-
tions for the duration of the war
and six months thereafter are
permanent positions by definition.
Within-grade advancements nat-
urally apply only to those in the
graded service, Le. to employees

six-rate grade shall be considered
the middle of that grade.

Action by the commission in
these cases shall apply both to
the departmental and field serv-
ices and shall have the force and
effect of law. These adjustments
of inequalities are distinguished
from the periodic within-grade
adjustments (increments) — for
which the waiting period has been
reduced,

While the commission is to act
on the cases of inequality, and
report annually to Congress, the
commission may delegate to the
head of any department or
agency, or to his designated rep-
resentative, the authority to ap-
prove additional within-grade
compensations for superior ac-
complishments, within the limit
of available appropriations. The
commission is to report these in-
creases to Congress annually, also.

dent establishments and agencies |
in the executive branch, including |

corporations, and the District of

Questions Answered

work weeks, The 26 pay periods

| ployee has served during the pe-| a year under the new law contrast

with prior practice of two pay
periods a month, 24 a year. If
@ pay period begins In one year
and ends in another, the gross
amount is to be a charge against
the appropriation existing at the
end of the pay period.

Actually, almost all agencies and
departments converted to the new
pay period beginning with the
July 1 period (checks received
third week in July).

Conversions of pay are as fol-
lows: multiply a monthly rate by
12 to obtain the annual rate;
the weekly rate by 2080 to obtain
the hourly rate; multiply the
the houruly rate; multiply the
hourly rate by the number of
hours worked per day to obtain
the daily rate.

VI. Personnel Ceilings

A provision in the pay bill that
received very little pablic atten-
tion was one that called upon the
departments, agencies, ete, in the
executive branch to terminate the
employment of such employees as
are not required for the proper
and efficient performance of the
functions of these Government
subdivisions.

‘The department heads must re-
port to the Director of the Bud-
get, at least quarterly, the number
of full-time civilian employees,
including dollar-a-year men, re-
quired by them within the United
States for proper discharge of the
duties of these departments and
agencies, The number of neces-
sary employees must be reported
within sixty days of July 1, 1945
and “any personnel. in excess
thereof shall be released - at
such times as the Director shall
order.”

Periodic reports are required of
the department and agency heads.

omy policy, is entitled “Personnel

Sayre as OPA Director
Of Personnel Injects
Life into Promotions

By CHARLES SULLIVAN
Special to The LEADER

WASHINGTON, July 24—Many of Wallace 8,
Sayre’s friends in NYC and Long Island must be wonder-
ing what he has been doing since he was a Municipal
Civil Service Commissioner in NYC. The answer is he has
been doing right well by the United States Government,
He is responsible for all OPA personnel in the U. S. and
territories, is a member of the OPA management staff
and thus has a hand in budget, planning, management of

prescribed |

Mr, Sayre has his
hands full staffing
OPA's 92 district of-
fices, 400 area cen-
tal offices, 5,000 lo~
cal boards and four
territorial offices
with 55,000 paid em-
ployees, not includ~
ing volunteers and
panel workers.

He has given
careful impiementa-
tion to the govern-
ment’s merit promo-
tion program. Un-
like NYC promotion
it does not involve
competitive exami-
nation. Anyone who has done
work over and above the require-
ments of his job is eligible for
merit promotion.

He has set up a committee to
judge the merits of all cases.

Mr, Sayre, » Ph.D, formerly on
| the faculty of New York Univer-
| si! , first served the OPA as an
| Assistant Director of Fuel Ration-
both gasoline and fuel oil,
the last year and a half he
been Director of Personnel.

His big job is recruitment for
offices all over the country.

The professional staff, which
includes about 1,500 in Washing-
ton and some 10,600 in the field,
represents practically every phase
of American industry.

A Word About the Future

“We had to develop a team of
businessmen. lawyers and etono-
mists,” Mr. Sayre said.

“It required all three types to

cause it involves business, legal
and economic knowledge, and
there were no such things as

know them now.”

Mr. Sayre’s biggest headache is
to retain his staff, because many
are needed back in industry.
OPA's work will not diminish until
after V-J Day, he said,

Asked about the future of his
employees, Mr, Sayre said it all
depended on what the Govern-
ment planned to do. Doubtless
many employees would find per-
manent places in government, but
the majority would likely return

he believed.

Mr. Sayre has native good hu-

Under New Pay Act

‘al

WASHINGTON, July 2

to The LEADER

4—James B. Burns, national

president of the American Federation of Government Em-

ployees (AFL), hailed as good news the fact that the
basic compensation increase under the new Federal Pay

Act “will not affect the work

motion plan,”

He added:
“Any employees who have pro-
mum within-grade salary ad-

| vancement is $666.
Example of Protection

KINDLY show by example how
the new law could have operated
against a low-paid employee, ex-
cept for the special protection
afforded to him in that same law.

The gain under the new law
could be more than offset by the
loss of the $300 a year compen-
sation in lieu of overtime (War
Overtime Pay Act of 1943). For
instance, an employee who does
not work overtime received on
| June 30, 1945, receives a basic
salary rate of $1,200 and gets the
$300. His total June 30, 1945 rate
is $1,500 a year. On July 1, 1945,
his basic rate would be increased
from $1,200 to $1,440, and this
would be his total rate, because
he does not work overtime, To
prevent the reduction in his total
compensation from $1,500 to
$1,440 on July 1, 1945, Sec, 603
(a grants him $60 a year addi-
tonal compensation in order to
equal the guaranteed minimum
of $1,200 plus $300, or $1,550,

He explained that advances
ments will not be retroactive,

| He figured that in the entire
Government service about 2,000,~
000 of the 2,987,000 employees will
| Continue to work 48 hours.

The pay bill, he said, will also
simplify pay procedure, by hav-
ing workers paid every two weeks
instead of twice a month, and ul~
timately make pay days regular,
