Estes Kefauver
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
caught the design for victory. It
was more than a personal victory
for Eisenhower, It was a victory
as well for Tom Dewey and, in a
deep and subtle sense, for Estes
Kefauver. The diagnoses and
analyses of victory will flow for
many
it is
weeks. Beyond the issues,
lear now that the American
have been troubled by grave
the maladjustments of
ntury, maladjustments
seemingly without end, have chill-
ed and disturbed them. And they
seek a messiah. Since 1942 when
Eisenhower was projected upon
the public retina, he has been
clothed in the garments of @ say-
four. The people, lost and worried,
have seen in him a father-symbol.
The election demonstrated that
this appeal cut across and into all
of the electoral groups, whether
labor, racial or economic, From
the early days of the Eisenhewer
candidacy, what would be the
final result was known. But even
GOP wheelherses given to extrava-
gant forecasting were afraid te

New Effort Seen
To Alter
State
Personnel Board
The State Legislature will re~
ceive a bill at its next session to
alter the structure of the State
Civil Service Commission. Such a
measure, calling for a strong cet
tral administrator and a com-
paratively weak commission, was
introduced in last year’s legisla-
tive session, but beaten at the
last minute in a dramatic display
of legislative strategy by employee
organizations and other groups.
The exact wording of the new
bill has not been formulated. Sen-
ator Walter J. Mahoney of Buffalo
has been engaged in an election
battle. He is chairman of the
Commission on Coordination of
State Activities, which sponsored
last year's measure. Arthur H.
Schwartz, the Commission's coun-
sel, was appointed to the Supreme
Court by Governor Dewey, and he
too was engaged in a battle to re-
tain the post, Losing his fight, Mr.
Schwartz is expected to return to
his post as counsel to the Com-
mission. Dr. William Ronan
Commission research director, hag
epared data upon which the new
ill will be based. So action may
be expected within the coming
weeks,
Preller Group Won't. Oppose
One of the factors which helped
kill the measure at the past ses-
sion was the resentment of the
Preller Commission, stadying re-
vision of the civil service law,
which had not been_consulted by
the Mahoney group prior to the
bill's introduction, That factor
won't be present again. It is indi~
cated privately that the Preller
Commission will go along with
anything Governor Dewey may
want. This would represent a com-
plete reversal of last year's stand,
when members of the Preller
Commission “boned up” on the
facts to make ready for a sustain~
ed legislative battle against the
bill. The Governor is so strong

Whatthe GOP Sweep Means
To Federal Public Employees
—
WHAT IS LIKELY to happen to
Federal civil service and public
employees with the new Republi-
gan administration in power
A careful appraisal of the avail-
able facts and informed opinion
indicates:
1, The size of the Federal ser-
Vice will be reduced slowly
2, The great bulk of public em-
Ployees under civil service is un-
likely to be affected, although
there will be terrific pressure upon
those having a voice in policy—or
carrying out policy — to resign,
Even those with “status” will feel
this pressure to return to their
Civil Service grade.
3. At the top level, of course,
there will be a complete
ter of personnel.
4. Chances for a pay raise are}
considered not too bright, in view
of the campaign promises to cut
taxes.
5. A study of Federal retirement
systems, voted by the 82nd Con-
ress, Will be undertaken; some
Improvements may result
Not Much Change In Merit System
6. No great changes in the func-
tioning of the merit system are in
view.
7. Although
“corruption” and
“communism
in government”
were important GOP issues, no
reat changes in the _ present
joyalty and security procedures are
anticipated, The personnel of vari-
ous loyalty boards will, however,
be altered. There is even a view
that additional safeguards may be
provided for employees up on
loyalty or security charges
There will be a tremendous
rush for patronage, It is impossible
new ros-
populated by government aides,
Eisenhower came out ahead in the
voting. However, there will prob-
ably be gradual reduction in the
work of civilian agencies, and it
is expected that a number of them
will be dismantled entirely, The
regulatory agencies, the control
agencies, will suffer, Such agen-
cles as the Wage Stabilization
Board, the National Production
Authority, are likely to be cur-
tailed or eliminated. If really huge
savings in expenditures are to be
effected, it is possible even that
agencies dealing in the foreign
field may be affected. There will
be a tendency to decentralize, with
states taking on more functions,
This would result in a reduction
of the total of Federal employees.
Favorable Committee Heads
Employees may expect favorable
treatment from the Senate and
House Civil Service Committees
Both committees will be headed by
men friendly to civil service.
Chairman of the Senate Commit-
tee is likely to be William Langer;
the House Committee chairman,
Ed Rees of Kansas.
The Patronage Question
One of the knotty patronage
problems‘concerns the postmaster
ships, of which there are 22,000.
These jobs are nominally under
civil service, because a non-com-
petitive exam is held, and the ap-
pointment is made by the Presi-
dent, with Senate approval. Selec-
tions are made straight down the
list, from among the first three,
until the first eligible is reached

vate employers. Federal employees
shall be selected under tronger

shall receive proper ognition,

This would mean, if the plat-
form promises were carried out
that Federal employees could an-
ticipate better labor relations pro-
cedures than they now have, un-
employment insurance, reduced
Patronage, and promotion by ¢

hope is held out for the achieve-
ment of these gains

Post of October 30 over General
Eisenhower's signature made two

neumbents certainly never wor-

The new President will have to
face the postmastership problem
directly, and may be expected to
have same difficulties that
other Presidents have had in get-
| ting the Senate to consent to loss
of its right to approve postmasters.
If the postmasterships were made
jreally competitive on the same
basis as other U. S. jobs that carry
civil service status, considerable
| public response could be expected
| when an exam is announced, and
not only from present postal em-
ployees.
The 22,000, nearly all Democrats
|when viewed over the four-year
| Presidential term, do not present
too great a problem, since the
turnover, because of deaths, retire-
ments, resignations, and other ap-
pointments received, average about
5,000 a year, just as thousands of
appointive jobs have remained
filled by the same appointees, some
of whom got them as far back as
the Coolidge Administration.
General Eisenhower has
advised by civil service exper
have the postmastership vacancies
in the future filled by truly merit
system competition, and to have
present appointive lawyers covered
into the Competitive Cl
in the future these jobs,
be filled through exams.
‘The Lawyers
One area in which thousands of
new faces will be seen is among
attorneys. These will represent a

REPORTS of the delegates of
Binghamton Chapter, CSEA on
the Association’s annual meeting
were rendered at a regular meet-
ing held un October 30 at the
officers of the State Labor Depart-
ment. Delegates reporting were:
Margaret Ahern, Anne Bertoni,
Harvey Coloney, Helen Van Atta
and Marie Westlake.
C. Albion Kenworthy, chapter

gates’ reports by several observa-
tions, comments and recommenda-
tions.
Ernest L .Conlon, field repre-
sentative of the Association, who

enthusiastically initiated plans to
hold a testimonial dinner for him,
the occasion being his recent re-
tirement from state service as
Executive Officer of the Broome
County Alcoholic Beverage Con-
trol Board. This dinner is to be
held on November 22nd at the
Arlington Hotel in Binghamton.
Recommendation was made by
Clarence W. F. Stott, executive
secretary, and Mr. Kenworthy,
that the Civil Service LEADER'S
questionnaire designed to obtain
basic information regarding the
effects of present salary standards
on public employees be filled out
and sent in to the LEADER, It
was felt that such action would be
very much in the interest of the
civil service employees. Mr. Ken-
worthy reported that one large
office had responded to the ques-
tionnaire 100%.
Upon Mr. Conlon’s return, he
gave a report on Association ac-
tivities up to date and gave com-
prehensive answers to several
pertinent questions that were given
to him.

Labor Relations,
Increments; Two ‘Musts'
N° that the Vogel minimum pension bill has been
adopted unanimously by the NYC Council, two other
measures that also have the support of all employee or-
ganizations should be adopted, preferably unanimously.
They are the Quinn-Isaacs labor relations bill and the
Treulich increment bill.
NYC is now without any satisfactory means by which
employees may present their grievances to anybody who
has authority to settle them. Certain makeshift, isolated
methods have been adopted but miss the mark by a
ridiculous margin. The Quinn-Isaacs bill offers a sound
and realistic beginning in labor relations, in line with ad-
vanced techniques in private industry and progressive
government,
The Treulich bill would increase increments and put
them on a solid, legal basis. As they now exist in NYC,
since the law was adopted when salaries were far lower,
they are far outdated and are granted as acts of indul-
gence. This is a pretty shaky foundation. The U. S. Gov-
ernment and New York State have “open book” increment
schedules, and NYC should lose no time in taking the
same forward step. The Treulich bill doesn’t go as far as
we would like, but it does represent a forward step.
Transfers Should
Be Much Easier
he State of Illinois has taken a legislative step which
N. Y. State might well wish to note. New law there
permits civil service employees of public assistance agen-
cies to transfer to comparable positions in city, State or
county governments without taking new examinations.
Dual purpose of the step is to enlarge career oppor-
tunities at all government levels and to place employees
in spots where they’re most needed.
Civil service has often been accused of unnecessarily
rigid procedures. Greater flexibility, better use of man-
power, and greater consideration to, the needs of indi-
vidual employees, would seem to give merit to a plan for
easier transfer, agency to agency, and one unit of govern-
ment to another.
IT IS GRATIFYING to report that not a single em-
ployee has been brought up on charges under the State
Joyalty risk law, although the act has been in effect now
for nearly two years. The cancer of communism has made
no inroads here. And that’s good news!
COMMENT
THANKS FROM
NYC FIRE OFFICERS
Editor, The LEADER:
Many thanks for your lucid anal-
asad of emergency services in New
fork City. If the officials of Police
and Fire Departments read your
words carefully, there is no ques-
tion that the problem will be solved
fm a way to put these services
where they belong—in the Fire De~
Pariment—and at the same time
release @ large number of police
for other duties.

CAVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
AND RECLASSIFICATION
Miitor, The LEADER:
A few days ago our Mayor an-
nounced to the press that he has
directed the Municipal Civil Ser-
vice Contes. to undertake
wasted and its findings discarded.
An interesting commentary on
how the Municipal Civil Service
Commission can be expected to
reclassify, can be inferred from its
mode of procedure at present in
&@ specific case.
Let’s take the case of the Court
Interpreters, a highly specialized
and recognized service, requiring
unusual preparation and talent.
In a recent announcement of a
pending examination for Interpre-
ters, by the Civil Service Commis-
sion, after specifying the groups
of languages and the pay, there is
added this classic incentive, “The
successfQl appointee will be eligi-
ble to a promotion examination
for Assistant Clerk at an increase
in salary.”
One interpreter on being shown
the above examination notice re-
marked: “A parallel to this ‘ad’

else, won the nomination for
Eisenhower. It was Dewey who led
the strategy for the Texas “thou
shalt not steal” issue which hit so
strongly upon the public conscious-
ness. Dewey took mud and slime
from the Dirksens and others in
his party. At one point there even
appeared the possibility of physi-
eal violence at the GOP conven-
tion, Dewey took it quietly. His
single-minded determination was
to get Eisenhower nominated, no
matter what the enormity and
virulence of the opposition,
At a private meeting of the
“Dewey Associates” in the Astor
Hotel early Jast summer, con-
sisting of men who have been with
Dewey since his days as a special
prosecutor, the Governor predict-
ed both the Eisenhower and the
Stevenson nominations. He told
his close associates how television
would help win the nomination
for Eisenhower. The scenario of
events which then ultimately un-
rolled was voiced by Dewey at that
meeting.
He Took It Quietly
During the campaign he took it
on the chin again, sitting by with-
out interference during the love
feast between Eisenhower and
Taft. As this column has said be-
fore, Dewey knows how to come
back from defeat, often stronger
than he has been before. He came
back from the defeat in the Hines
mistrial early in his career to win
@ reputation as the outstanding
public prosecutor in the United
States; he came back from his
defeat by Herbert Lehman to be-
come Governor; he came back
from his defeat in the presidential
race by Roosevelt, to obtain the
nomination a second time; he
came back from his defeat by Tru-
man to make the new president of
the United States. And he didn't
allow his nominee to repeat his
own 1948 mistakes,
This column, diagnosing the Re-
iblican situation on December
1, 1951 stated: “The conditions
for winning the election are in the
hands of the GOP, if they can re~-
lease themselves from their own
defeatism; if they can end their
own bitter internal strife; if they
can read the portents of recent
events; if they can understand
what the newer media of com-
munication are doing to party
lines; if they can find fresh, ex-
hilarating political themes and
political appeals; if they can take
advantage of the morass in which
the Democratic Party currently
finds itself; if they can more in-
cisively reach the many groups
which make up the American pub-
lic; if they can overcome the in-
grown rust of creaky political
leadership at the local level; if
they can disengage themselves
from the ‘bourbon’ appelation
which Franklin D, Roosevelt at-
tached to them; If they can come
up with candidates, program, and
selling devices to reach the voters.”
All this the Republicans were
able to accomplish, and all this
was part of the scenario in whose
authorship Governor Dewey had
so distinctive a part.
Stevenson Grew—But Not Enough
Governor Stevenson grew in the
affection of many as they got to
know him, and in this column's
affection too, as a brilliant, literate
spokesman of the Democratic view-
point. He was 4 candidate of uni-
que proportions, and even some of
Eisenhower's strong supporters,
like Walter Lippmann, sensed in
him aspects of greatness. But
there is the old saying in politics:
“You can’t beat somebody with
nobody.” Eight months ago, Gov-
ernor Stevenson was virtually un-
known outside his state. While
much was made of the fact that
he was drafted, the truth is that
he was Truman's choice and would
not have been nominated if Tru-
man hadn't urged it. He was not
the “change” the people wanted.
The Communism issue, whether
logically or not, attached itself to
his candidacy among some seg-
ments of voting population, No
crime-buster, Stevenson was un~-
able to ‘talk about corruption in
any other way than honestly ad-
mit its existence,
Kefauver
The strongest contender for the
nomination at the Democratic
convention was Estes Kefauver,
As events have turned out, Ke~
fauver was probably fortunate that
he did not get the nomination. It
may be that, the malaise of the
have
won the election,
‘at the Convention will not soon
forget that Kefauver was the
Democrat with most popular ap-
peal; the one Democrat nearly as
widely known as Eisenhower; the
one Democrat who would have
killed the corruption issue because
he himself had been so vigorous
in his work against corruption;
the one Democrat to whom the
issue of “Trumanism” could not
be applied, because he actively en-
tered the lists agaist Truman
and beat the President in the New
Hampshire primaries. There was
evidence too, that women voters
mT
during the probe of his crime come
mittee,
But the fact is that Kefauvem
did not get the nomination. He ig
still a United States senator. The
respect of his own party for hint
Must inevitably rise now; and the
respect of the GOP for his invest!=
gative sense will now be doubly
alerted since he will be watchin

aspects of corruption as he at<

MUNICIPAL CIVIL SERVICE COMMISSION
DEMANDS IT BE INVESTIGATED!
THE FUROR over the NYC Police Report submitted by the In-
stitute of Public Administration, to the Mayor's Committee on Man-
agement Survey, took a surprising turn last week when the NYC
Civil Service Commission requested the Department of Investigation
to study the charges made against the Commission. An inquiry was
immediately begun by Commissioner James H. Sheils.
The Commission's move was one of the rare instances of a City
agency, under fire, asking the Department of Investigation to study,
the charges, with the expectation of obtaining vindication that way.
Previously the Commission denied the eharges and demanded that
the Institute submit proof. The Commission said that, as yet, no
proof has been submitted. Since an investigation of the investigators
is now under way, both sides are remaining silent, and so is Com-
missioner Shells,
Ne |
Called Indictable, If True
Some members of the Commission's staff felt that the charges
were such that, if true, members of the Commission could be indicted,
The charges mainly concern the nature of the patrolmen exams
and disregard of candidates’ past records that the survey group evi«
dently thought should have disqualified many.
The Commission felt that the survey, conducted under the direc~
tion of Bruce Smith, attempted to create the impression that the
Commission gave a style of exam deliberately conducive to prom» ting
attendance at private schools,
The report went on to charge too ready acceptance by the Com-
mission and the Police Department of candidates with medical defects
and then stated that “by neglect and conniving, both the present and
the future value of each complement of recruits is heavily discounted
at the outset.”
The charge of connivance caused Commission members and staff
to become particularly incensed.
Missing Fingers
Another charge in the report was that the Commission al
candidates: with missing fingers to become patrolmen. T
mission pointed out that it has established medical standa:
require that thumb and index finger of both hands mus
There are three pivots on each finger, called phalanges, an:
than three on the remaining fingers may be impaired, i
amputated. Thus one missing finger, other than thumb
permissible, the Commission noted, adding that in passing date
with an allowable missing Anger it was obeying, not disoboying, the
rule,
Partisan Influences
Another charge that roiled the Commission no end was that the
Commission “is itself subject to many partisan and personal influ-
ences.” The Commission stated that its conduct is strictly 1-- povusi
and impersonal and that if any criticism could be made it would be
that it leans over backward.
Excerpts From Report
The parts of the report to which the Commission yoices most
emphatic objection and denial, and on which Mr, Sheils’ investiga-
tion is centering, follows:
“Criminal records of wide variety, paternity proceedings and other
objectionable features are waived by the Commission in three-fourths
of the cases in which they arise.”
Also, written exams “are little concerned with native intelligence,
aptitude for police work, or ability to learn, They emphasize the three
R's, local geography and civics, and the rudiments of law enforce-
ment. Why the latter is included is difficult to understand, since prior
experience is not required, and all newly appointed policemen must
attend from eight to 10 weeks of instruction at the Police Acadcmy.
An unfavorable result of the specialized information type of questions
in patrolmen’s examinations is to force aspiring candidates to enroll
in one of the private cram schools for civil service applicants.”
Other Charges
On the medical score, although the report states Police Depart
ment surgeons also participate in these activities, the Commission's
own doctors are described as having final word on medical eligibility.
“The records show acceptance of men,” the report continues,
“who are handicapped by foot injuries, flat feet, overweight by as
much as 70 pounds; leg wounds, missing fingers, or injured hands;
defective hearing and mental disorders.” Then follows the charge
about “neglect and conniving" that drags down the quality of can«
didates accepted for the police force.
Also the report states that, though the minimum height is 5 feet,
8 inches, “weight ratios in relation to height are neglected by civil
service physicians and police surgeons alike.”
MORE THAN 18 percent of the 786 recruits at the Police Academy,
in NYC have been to college. Thirty-two of them have college degrees;
three of the 32 have master’s degrees, One of NYC's policewomen
has a master’s degree in social science,
A complete investigation of the finances of all members of the
NY¥C Civil Service Commission, and the entive staff, has been com~
pleted by Investigation Commissioner James H, Shi It is reported
that in every instance the official or employee was “in the clear,” in
that nobody was found to be spending more than his or her income
reports showed,
The Department of Investigation also made a study of various
aspects of the Commission's work in which “integrity” was involved,
but no lapses on that score were reported to the Mayor, an informant

THE PRESSURE. for jobs in
the new administration is already
strong among GOP stalwarts, Ex-
pect to see many Dewey men in
the new administration. The new
United States Attorney for the
Southern District of New York
may be New York State Supreme
Court Justice Arthur Schwartz, a
close Dewey advisor, Sol Gelb, a
former Dewey and Frank Hogan
“brain,” or George Mintzer .. .
Nat Mitchell, chief of the New
York State Tax Investigating Unit,
can probably move into the job
of Assistant Commissioner of In-
ternal Revenue in charge of in-
vestigation . . . Bernard Katzen,
general attorney for the State In-
surance Fund, is also due for a
big federal job in payment for the
campaign work he did. It is being
said that William Rogers, former
Dewey man who is Nixon’s advisor,
can get anything he wants. Rog-
ers is now practicing law in Wash-
ington.
Of Mr. Gelb, the great Judge
Learned Hand once said: “He has
an uncommon sense of relevancy”
. James A. Hagerty, who pulled
together the tangled public rela-
tions strings of the campaign, will
probably remain as Eisenhower's
press secretary — if he wants the
job . . , State Commerce Commis~

FEDERAL employees are wait-
ing to see whether General Dwight
D. Eisenhower, as President, will
have any better luck in getting
Congress to vote unemployment
insurance for U, 8. workers than
President Truman had. With an-
nual leave on a use-it-or-lose-it
basis, the cushion has been re-
moved whereby payment for ac-
cumulated leave softened the blow
of job loss, so, the employees feel,
unemployment insurance becomes
® “must.”
MANDATORY retirement at age
70, if an employee has 15 years
service, should be repealed, the
U. 8. Civil Service Commission
recommended. Now the President
alone has authority to grant exten-

WASHINGTON, Nov, 10—The U.
8. Civil Service ‘Commission will
soon announce its plan for in-
creasing the upper age limits in
exams.
Answering a letter from Repre-
sentative Sidney R, Yates (D., Iil.),
mmission Chairman Robert
Ramspeck said that agencies had
been canvassed on whether the
Present age 62 limit should be in-
creased, and if so, by how much.
Replies have been received from
all the agencies.
Chairman Ramspeck wrote that
&n appointing officer has the right
to skip over two out of each three
eligibles, in making selection for
appointment. The appointing of-
ficer, he added, also must be con-
vinced that the older citizen is
qualified to fill the job,
“To bring this about,” the Chatr-
man stated, “a program of educa-
tion and persuasion may be neces-
sary, something like the one so
successfully used in encouraging
employment of the physically
handicapged.”

At a rally held recently by the
Federation of Post Office Clerks,
AFL, protesting curtailing of ser-
vice in the Bronx, Patrick J. Pita-
erald, president of the New York
iocal, charged that more work is
being heaped on the clerks than
they can properly handle, and
service to the public suffers ‘de~
plorably.
“Clerks who were busily engag-
ed handling parcel post must now,
in addition, sell stamps,” he said.
During the pay few months, he
added, 42 window details have
been eliminated, representing an
average of two window clerks tak-
en out of each station. Also, 261
clerks were transferred from sta-
tions to the six terminal points,
he reported, calling such centrali-
zation a slowdown of dispatch and
delivery, They handle outgoing
and Incoming mail,
Economies Not Seen
“The claimed economies are not
apparent to those who man the
Postal service,” Mr. Fitzgerald
asserted,
He said the so-called economies
have placed more clerks on unde-
sirable night and midnight tours.
He demanded restoration of
jood postal service, saying that
he protest rally was held only
after all attempts to obtain satis-
faction through channels had
proved futile. Representatives
present were urged to have Con-
gress demand that the Postmaster
General restore good service, espe-
cially in the New York, N. Y., post
office, which, Mr, Fitzgerald de-
elared, is self-supporting.

May I offer my congratulations
for the
to you well-thought-out
Di my
study of Pire Department opera-
gency work, I reached practically
standing |
surance and small pension fund
balances. These may suffice for a
few immediate needs but are
scarcely enough for meeting con-
tinuing living expenses of depen-
dents. Salaries of employees are
too low to build up any other fi-
nancial reserves,
Your issue of September 9 con-
tained a letter describing the piti-
ful circumstances of the widow
and two small children of a State
employee. Had this employee been
covered by Social Security for
even as short a period as eighteen
months his dependents would
have been assured of at least a
basic monthly income for many
years
Even disregarding all other cood
features of Social Security, the
survivor's benefits program alone
is sufficient reason to have govern-
ment employees covered. They are
the last remaining group without
this necessary protection

FED UP WITH EXCU
ABOUT DPUL LAYOFFS
Editor, The LEADER:
As one of your long loyal readers
I am writing to you with regard
to @ matter that is in need of at-
|tention, but which has thus far
| been sorely neglected
Tam an employee of the Division
of
| the same conclusions expressed by | 9% Placement and Unemployment
| you.
To me there seems little
doubt as to who should be per-
forming this work.
However, as a member of the
Fire Department, J, as do my bro-
ther members, hesitate to speak
up in this matter for fear of an-
tagonizing our fellows in blue in
the Police Department. We
well understand their being un-
willing to lose this arm of their
service. But perhaps the offer of
the option to transfer to the Fire
Department all the members of
said Police Emergency Squads
would make a changeover more
palatable. Legislation permitting
such transfer should be simple to
draw up, especially since the pen-
sion systems of both departments
are so similar, You might con-
sider the above in any future
articles you print on this subject
Once again, my congratulations
on Hent editorial

AN IMPORTANT ITEM
}ON SOCIAL SECURITY
Editor, The LEADER
In all the discussion
rity for governs
ves I have noticed one importa:
item
which is never mentioned,
‘This is the survivor's benefit fea-
ture,
The Social Security program
provides that the dependents of
@ deceased insured person may re-
ceive up to $150 monthly for a
wife and two children, 'The recent
change in benefits increases this
proportionately.
As is well known, dependents of
government employees are usually
without resources other ‘han’ in-
can |
e. During the past
few years I and over a thousand
| other “permanent” employees have
been laid off several times. This is
| typical of the treatment accorded
|""permanent” employees in a so-
called State Civil Service Career
| System.
Amang the many defects ap-
parent in the administration of
this agency, the complete lack of
job security which faces all em-
| ployees, veteran ahd non-veteran,
jis most serious, Despite the
|problem of a fluctuating work
|load there is no reason why
stability of employment cannot be
|achieved for a core group of per-
manent employees as it is for
those who hold the plush sinecures
at the higher levels, The em-
ployees who bear the brunt of the
frequent layoffs are mostly in the
titles of Assistant Interviewer and
Claims Examiner

now, however, that no defections

ture, may be anticipated if he
makes vised civil service com-
mission a “must.”
Employees’ View
The Civil Service Employees
Association is in opposition to the
Mahoney measure, and at its re-
cent annual meeting passed a
eens reaffirming its opposi-
ion.
Jesse B. McFarland, CSEA presi-
dent, outlined the Association's
position in his annual report, in
which he said of the provisions in
the Mahoney measure:
“The placing of such broad
powers in a single administrative
officer subject to the varying terms
of elected officials is a direct invi-
tation to a total patronage sys-
tem as well as arbitrary and un-
reasonable administrative prac-
tices .. . The reasoned thought of
civil service employees seems
plainly to be that there should be
a strong civil service commission
with rule-making and appellate
powers and an administrative
officer with administrative and not
policy-making duties.”
Changes Seen Possible
Mr. McFarland did not rule out
all reorganization, however, He
added:
“We are in tego with the
need for more direct an “of ment
attention to spplication o rit
system principles and to such
organization as will make for aa-
ministrative efficiency but without
weakening and indeed with insis-
tence upon strengthening the safe-
guards which the statesmen who
inaugurated the merit system
clearly felt were essential.”
All the larger public employee
organizations in the State were
opposed to the Mahoney measure,
One of the telling arguments made
was that the matter should be
postponed i @ year, allowing the
Possibility. of @ reconciliation of
views, As of now, there have been
conversations, formal or informal,
between Senator Mahoney and
those interested in the measure,
With election over, however, it is
expected that such conversations
and possibly public hearings
—will take place,

Willard State Hospital
WILLARD STATE gee soy
chapter's bowling correspondent,
Grant Baley, says that he doesn’t
intend to issue any more statistics
on scores rolled on the Willard
State Hospital alleys. Usually,
when a new high game or match
is rolled, it stands for the re-
mainder of the season or longer,
But this isn't the case this year,
Last Monday night, Stu Mc-
Whorter of the Indian League
racked up nine straight strikes and
ended up with a scratch 277, the
highest game in a long, long time
on Willard lanes. On Thursday
night of the same week, John
Engle of the Engineers team in the
Hospital League rolled 217, 235
and 190, for a scratch three-game
total of 642, Incidentally, this
score is up there with the best 30
frames on Willard lanes,
From here on out, there is only
one safe bet to make: no one will
hit @ scratch 301 or a scratch 901
year.
Milton Kellogg has apparently
found a spot on the hospital alleys
that will bring him some of the
scores he has been boasting of
getting elsewhere. He leads the
