5 CENT

ODAY I’m for the 5-cent subway fare. Yesterday I was for the
8-cent fare. The day before I was for the 5-cent fare.

8-cent — 5-cent — 8-cent — 5 cents!

Just where does Mayor O’Dwyer stand?

Meanwhile, the city’s civil service employees face another year
without a pay rise, They’re not going to like being made the fall guys
in a political juggling game between politicians of the State and
iticians of the city. Moreover, vital. municipal services cannot
undone, ,. . We'll have more on this.

the eligible list will be sufficient
to take care of the city’s recruit-
ment needs in this title for the
four-year legal life of the list.

In applying one of its several
formulas for rescaling, the Com-
mission found the poMt on the
distribution curve where 70 per
cent would yield about 2,500 eli-
gibles, This point showed a dif-
ference of 46 between the larger
number of right answers and the
smaller number of wrong answers.
That is simply another way of
saying that a minimum of 98 right
answers would put the eligible on
the list, si subtracting the 42
wrong answers from the 98 right
answers gives the difference of 46.

Mathematicians might want to
look at the formula:

R stands for minimum number
of right answers, W for wrong an-
swers,

R minus W equals 46.

R_plus W equals 150.

2R equals 19.

R equals 98,

The list is expected to be pub-

lUshed in twe or three weeks,

ALBANY, March 15.—Previous
estimates that membership of
The Civil Service Employees As-
sociation will reach 50,000 this
year will have to be revised up-
ward,

This prediction was made by
officials of the organization as
they released the paid-up mem~-

for 1948,

State Division: 37,500, as against
30,000 this time a year ago. The
total membership for 1947 reached
only 36,000.

County Division: 3,800.

This makes a total of 41,300 as
of last week.

According to all indications, us-

BILLS ARE PASSED
0 END ABSOLUTE’
ET PREFERENCE

Organizations Back
Point-Credit System;
Interest Runs High

By MAXWELL LEHMAN

ALBANY, March 15.—The vet preference amendment
written into the New York State constitution is going to

be changed,
The Sate Legislature last

week passed two measures

designed to achieve this purpose. Both measures reduce
the present sum-total of absolute preference, and both

take cognizance of certain

inequities which have ap-

peared in the functioning of the present law. Both result
from the fact that veterans themselves have expressed
dissatisfaction with the working of the present law. And

both were drawn up with the ad-
vice and assistance of veterans.
Among those in Albany lobbying
for one measure or the other were
veterans themselves.
Now You Decide

The Legislature said, in effect:
“We'll pass both bills. Now you
decide which you want.

Since what is involved is an
amendment to the Cohstitution,
the measures (or either one of
them) will have to be passed again
by the Legislature next year. Then
they (or it) go to the people in
a referendum for final decision.

The present amendment calls
for; (1) absolute preference in
all civil service jobs to veterans,
both on original entrance into

service and on promotion; (2)
disabled veterans go to the top of
the list, followed by non-disabled
veterans and then by non-veter=
ans,

Comparing the Bills

The new bills both retain pref~
erence for veterans, but on a more
limited scale.

Following is a comparison of
the salient features of the two
measures, the Mitchell bill and the
Condon bill:

Mitchell Bill (S, Intr, 2370)

1, Preference has no expiration
date.

2. Preference to apply on ap-
pointment or promotion.

U.S. Pay Bill Provides
$10-a-Week Raise

WASHINGTON, March 15.—The
Senate Civil Service Committee
authorized Senator Flanders (R.,
Vt.) to draw up an omnibus pay
bill which would raise the sal-
aries of 820,000 employees covered
by the Classification Act by an
average of $520 a year. It would
also give postal employees a flat
increase of not less than $600. It
would also raise the Classification
Act ceiling from $10,000 to $12,-
500 and give $5,000 increase to
Cabinet members and other Fed-

eral officials,

Luther C, Steward, President of
the National Federation of Fed-
eral Employees, brought up the
Classification Act revision method
for giving pay raises in the House
Committee on Post Office and
Civil Service. He asked tpat the
average salary be increased by
$800. He also urged a $2,400
minimum for adult full-time em-
ployees and a single salary scale
for all employees. He also asked
for the lifting of the Classification
Act ceiling from $10,000 to $15,000

seem to reflect employee consider-
ation, True economy cannot be
procured at the expense of per-
sonnel standards and efficient gov-
ernment . Governor Dewey and
the State Legislature realized this
when they approved cost of liv-
ing adjustments for State work-
ers.

“The County Board has done an
amazing job in holding a 1940
county tax rate of 7.5 mills over a
period when prices in the rest of
the world have almost doubled.
‘This was achieved partially at the
expense of the low-bracket civil
workers, some of whom are forced
to seek employment elsewhere aft-
er 10 and 15 years’ faithfur serv-
ice.

Take-Home Pay—$36

“You will wonder at the exist-
ence today of a family on a
weekly take-home pay of $36. This
is not the case of a beginner in
some insignificant capacity, but
the actual salary being paid an
employee after 15 years’ :ervice for
a responsible supervisory position
requiring college training. He and
other war veterans who fought to

security to the rest of the world
returned to their county jobs to
find a new economic world and a
deplorable example of public sal-
ary standards in their own back
yard. They are not proud of the
situation—there is no justifica-
tion for it. It will also surprise you
to know that after 5 years of
service, a county stenographer is
being paid $104 per year less than
the local telephone company of-
fers an inexperienced beginner to
start with, and that the county
recently lost an experienced work-
er to a starting teacher’s salary
of $800 per year more, both jobs
carrying similar educational re-
quirements. These are merely typ-
ical examples.

“We know that you cannot have
been fully informed and urge that
you investigate further.”

forgetting the fact that men make the jobs and make
them important jobs or petty jobs by virtue of their efforts
and ability and not by virtue of the e of their office,
or their department or their institution.
It is an easy escape from a hard
positions on the basis of e. The actual duties and
responsibilities of the position are the real criteria of
sound classification and size enters the picture only as it
increases or decreases those responsibilities
The case of the small college is pertinent. Many
people believe that the small college gives, on the whole,
a better education to its students than does the large
college. The English believe that the huge size of our
city high schools handicaps rather than helps our train-
ing of our boys and girls. It is by no means axiomatic
that a patient in a big hospital gets better service than
does one in a smaller hospital.

Routine Tends to Replace Personal Touch

Size has a certain deadening influence on the way
of life of all connected with a big enterprise. Rules and
routines take the place of personal counsel and advice,
Regulations and forms supplant personal contacts and
relationships. Direction is delegated and _ re-delegated
until it is dehumanized. Everyone is constantly twisting
his anatomy in attempting to look both up and to look
down at the same time.

There can be no observance of the principle of equal
pay for equal work where size is the sole or the chief
méasurement of the worth of a job.
Why not take a lesson from the dietitians who find
a symptom of disease and not of health?
ate both efficiency and humanity by seeking
the optimum size for the work or service to be done. And,
finally, why not judge each job on its meri on the
performance not in its perfiliations or secondary

It was necessary to introduce
new measures this year because
the present amendment calls for
a five-year limit, ending in 1951;
and unless new bills were intro-
duced at this session of the Leg-
islature, a hiatus might occur lat-
er, when there would be no pref-
erence of any kind in New York

State.
Behind the Bills

The Mitchell bill was drawn fol-
lowing a conference attended by
representatives of veteran, civie
and public employee groups, in-
cluding The Civil Service Em-
ployees Association. Prime mover
behind the Condon measure is
the American Legion. So concat-
enated was the situation, however,
(and this was reflected in the
Legislature's action) that Police
Legion Post 460 approved the
point system in principle, without
endorsing either bill specifically. A
|large group of NYC Patrolmen and

| Firemen — all veterans, many of

them members of the Legion and
of the Veterans of Foreign Wars
j yed to Albany last week
ek passage of the Mitchell
measure. They had obtained
thousands of signatures of vet-
erans in civil service, endorsing
the Mitchell bill.

Said they: “We make no recom-
mendation on the Condon bill,
either for or against. We ask
merely that you help pass the
Mitchell bill at this time, with
|the full confidence that in the
ensting year, its inherent merit
will bring about a virtually unani-
mous support.”

he Uniformed Fire Officers
Association, comprising the entire
body of officers in the NYC Fire
Department, passed a_ resolution
supporting the Mitchell measure.

“Two years’ experience with
the existing law granting prior
preferences in appointments, pro-
motions and retention in lay-off
to disabled veterans, has proved
it to be indefensibly inequitable
|and demoralizing to the public
service,” said Mr. Embree. “Non-
disabled veterans have found it
well-nigh impossible to obtain
promotions in most of the agen-
cies of the State and municipal
governments. Non-veterans haye
found the handicap of veteran
preferences so great that compe-
tition for appointments in some
jurisdictions on the part of non-
veterans has dwindled. In promo-
tions, it has proved virtually fu-
tile. Dissatisfaction with the op-
eration of the present law is wide-
spread among veterans and non-
veterans, Operating departments
have found existing conditions
inimical to effective and econom-
ical administration of govern-
mental affairs.

“Demands for more equitable
preferences in the civil service
have come from both veterans
and non-veterans in all parts of
the State.

Absolute Preference Out

One thing is clear — absolute
preference is out. Not even the
strongest proponents of it asked
its continuance as a policy of
the State. This indicates what one
legislator termed a “terrific”
shift of sentiment on the part of
veterans, Legislature, and general
public, The LEADER learns that
the American Legion drafters of
the Condon bill went through
some heavy wrangling and soul-
searching—and then decided that
veterans would do best voluntari-
ly to cut their own preference.
As a matter of fact, it is said that
the Legion has so far departed
from its 1946 demand for abso-
lute preference that some of its
leading members, in discussing
the drafting of a bill, came out
for a simple percentage prefer-
ence, not unlike that existing in
the Federal service. This view,
however, was defeated by confer-

ing purposes it would be better
to ask more than a simple per-
centage preference. In any case,
the present position of The Legion
is far less rigid than it was dur-
ing the preliminaries which pre-
ceded passage of the present law.

Civilian Voice

In the meantime, a lone voice
— the civilian voice, issued from
some 100 of the NYC Office of the
Motor Vehicle Bureau. Said they,
in a petition addressed to various
members of the Legislature, the
Civil Service Employees Associa-
tion, and others:

“We object to any further e:
tension of preference to non-d:
abled veterans in civil service pro-

five-year preference provided un-
der the present law was just fair
enough. The non-veteran has been
anxiously waiting for the end of
this period to have a chance at
these jobs. The Mitchell bill is out.

“We approve of preference to

really disabled veterans, provid-
ing: (a) the disability is war-
incurred; (b) the disability is

certified by the State of New York,
and not the Veterans Administra~
tion; (c) the disability is of seri~
ous nature, and not in existence
prior to induction. Disabilities
such as allergy to woolen socks,

Deepest Traditions
Of American Freedom

HE treatment of Dr. Edward U. Condon by the House
Un-American Activities Committees has Federal em-
ployees down with a bad case of the jitters.

The people of the United States have a very real, a
very deep, concern with a situation such as this one.

Dr. Condon, a scientist of such distinction that many
of America’s other distinguished scientists rushed to his
defense, had been accused of disloyalty. A three-man
board of the Commerce Department cleared him—as had
the Federal Buerau of Investigation. Nevertheless, the
Thomas Committee—without itself granting Condon a
hearing, and without citing the clearance statement of
the FBI—went on to condemn him on charges of which
Marquis Childs, a responsible American newspaperman,
said: “The childishness of this would be funny if it were
not so tragic.” In fact, newspapers over the entire coun-
try, including some of the most conservative, condemned
the committee action.

Recrimination a Blow to Recruitment

Our nation requires the most capable publie servants
it can find. How can it recruit such men if they are to
be subjected, without reason, to recrimination such as that
suffered by Dr. Condon? Scientists have said several times
they find it difficult to work for the Government, And
independent minds in all categories hesitate to accept
employment under conditions which cannot but destroy
thinking of broad scope.

Another item: Loyalty boards have been set up in all
Government departments to protect the Government
against employees accused of disloyalty—but also to pro-
tect the civil rights of the employees. In the case of
Dr. Condon, the Thomas Committee is in effect trying to
tear down this system of protections. Why have these
boards, if a Congressional committee is going to subpoena
their records every time it doesn’t like their decisions, and
subject the boards’ own members to the whiplash?

Secretary of Commerce Harriman has refused to
turn over records in the Condon case to the Thomas Com-
mittee. As this is being written, it is understood that
President Truman is preparing an order to all depart-
ments that they refuse to turn over such records. We feel
both officials are acting properly.

There is before Congress a measure making Congres-
sional investigating bodies more amenable to such rules
of procedure and evidence as apply in courts of law. It
should pa:

Another significant statement of Marquis Childs might
be quoted here, because of the palpable fear of many
Federal employees about speaking what they think. Says
he: “Is an American citizen, whether in government or
out, to be denied the right to any views other than those
of the most narrow orthodoxy? To answer yes is to go
against the broadest and deepest traditions of American,
freedom.”

WHAT EMPLOYER,

Court Review of Removal Hearin,

Can Expose Error of

Removing Office

By THEODORE BECKER

IT shouldn’t happen to a...
“non-veteran,” but it could.
With ail the protection sup-
posedly thrown around a compet-
itive class employee (who obtains
his appointment after due com-
petition in accordance with the
merit and fitness principle), he
can still be removed from his job
with little or no recourse. Under
the law a competitive class em-
ployee (other than a veteran or
an exempt volunteer fireman) can-
not be removed except after be-
ing served with written charges
of incompetency or misconduct
and after being given an oppor-
tunity to answer them :n writing.
After the appointing officer has
received the answer, he must de-
cide whether the employee is
guilty or innocent of the charges.
If he finds the employee guilty
and removes him, the latter has
no recourse, unless the appointing
officer has acted in bad faith and
pre-judged him or unless the
charges themselves are so flimsy
as to raise a presumption of bad
faith. But if the charges are sub-
stantial and the appointing officer
acts in good faith, (even though
mistakenly) the “non-veteran” or
“non-volunteer fireman” may lose
his job although he may be en-
tirely innocent. Whether or not
this actually happens is, in most
cases, impossible to determine, but.
that it does happen is certain. It
is inevitable that in weighing the
charges and the answer, the ap-
pointing officer—not chosen pri-
marily to perform qua: udicial
functions—may slip into the error
of actually finding the employee
guilty of charges other than those
preferred and answered. Inasmuch
as he is not required to write an
opinion, but merely a finding of
guilty, to sustain the removal,
whether or not the appointing of-
ficer has gone out of bounds is
virtually impossible to decide.
Not so, however, in the case of
a war veteran or an exempt vol-
unteer fireman. The latter are
entitled to a hearing on_ their
charges and to a court review on
the entire record if found guilty
and removed. On this review, the
court examines the record of the

hearing and the determy

N.Y. State

in History

By H. J. BERNARD

OR nearly three centuries it

avas impossible for historians
to know which of Peter Stuyve-
sant’s legs was missing. To be
sure, he hobbled about on a silver
leg and a natural one, and if a
researcher sought a clue from an
authentic portrait, he could find
only one such likeness, and it was
a bust. However, the mystery was
solved by Victor H. Paltsits, who
was State Historian during the
Hughes administration. He was
reading some Dutch yersified man-
uscript letters written to Stuyve-
sant by his English friend, Johan
Farret, and they set forth that
the amputation of the right leg
had been made at Curacoa.

Mr. Paltsits would naturally be
rummaging among manuscripts,
for he was Chief of the American
History Manuscript Division of the
N.Y, Public Library. Now 82, stal-
wart and energetic, he’s writing
a biography of James Lenox,
founder of, the Lenox Library.
The writing is being done at the
Hotel Whitman, in Jamaica,
where Mr. Paltsits lives.

Surrenders Without a Shot

The name Paltsits is familiar
to members of The Civil Service
Employees Association, for Victor
J, Paltsits is the Banking Depart-
ment representative on the Exec-
utive Committee, Second Vice-
president of the NYC Chapter and
Chairman of the Metropolitan
Conference, Victor J. is Victor

and the abolition of overlapping
grades,

James Burns, President of the
American Federation of Govern-
ment Employees, disagreed. He
said that the Classification Act
revision was time-consuming and
the Federal workers had to receive
their pay raises quickly. He asked
for a flat $800 increase.

Arthur Stein of the United Pub-
lic Workers, CIO, urged a flat in-
crease of $1,000 for all employees.
He also believed that the Classifi-
cation Act revision might delay
the pay raise.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

The following analysis of the
Langer-Chavez-Stevenson _ retire-
ment act, recently signed by Pres-
ident Truman, was prepared by
the U. S. Civil Service Commis-
sion:

‘The Langer - Chavez - Stevenson
Act changed some of the basic
features of the original Retirement
Act; it made some additions to
the old system, and it also elimi-
nated some of the former provi-
sions.

The new law provides that for
separations on or after the first of
April, 1948,°a minimum of five
years of Federal civilian service is
needed to qualify for any annuity
benefits. Military service cannot
be substituted for civilian work
in connection with this minimum.

‘The new law increases the de-
ductions from salary for retire-
ment purposes from 5 per cent to
6 per cent, effective with the first
pay period after June 30, 1948.
Interest on deductions of active
employees was lowered from 4 to
3 per cent as of the beginning of
1948,

Details on Age

The new act did not change the
conditions in connection with age
and optional retirement after cer-
tain periods of service. These re~
main as before, briefly:

‘The employee must retire at age
of 70 if he has at least 15 years
of servi

ce,
He may retire at age 60 with 30
years of service,
He may retire at age 62 with 15
years of service.
He may retire at age 55 with 30

Truman Plan Truman Plan Favored
For Shift of USES

Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, March 15,—In
an 8-to-4 vote, overriding its
chairman, Senator Robert A. Taft,
the Senate Labor and Public Wel-
fare Committee supported Presi-
dent Truman's Reorganization
Plan calling for the permanent
transfer to the Labor Department
of the United States Employment
Service and the Bureau of Em-
ployment Security.

Rejected by the House, the plan
will become effective automatically
on March 19 unless the Senate
also disapproves. Otherwise the
employment service will be re-
turned to the Federal Security
Agency. It is now temporarily in
the Labor Department. The Bu-
reau of Employment Security is
now in the FSA,

ever, his annuity will be scaled

get if he were age 60, and, once
set, does not change as time goes

An immediate annuity is avail-
able, under certain conditions, to

period ending June 30 last year
(the Forand Act). This portion of
the new law was made retroac-
tive to July 1, 1947.

The amount such a person re-
ceives will not be a full annuity
if he is less than 60 years old.
It will be scaled down at the rate
of % of 1 per cent per month (3
per year) for each full month
ates 60 at the date of separa-
tion,

After April 1, there 1s but one
age at which annuity starts for
those people who work for the
Government for at least five ci-
vilian years and then leave before
reaching retirement age. That
age is 62. In the past, anyone who
earned the right to a future an-
nuity by virtue of five years’ em-
ployment could elect to start get-
ting his annuity payments at
either age 55 or 62, depending on
whether he had been dropped in-
voluntarily or resigned. Now, the
reason for separation does not
matter, and the discontinued serv-
ice annuity, as we call it, starts
at_age 62.

In connection with this, the

civilian years, but hasn't reached
the 20-year mark, he has the

projects on the premises of 40
large industrial organizations in
the past two years. Developed by
Mr. Lateiner, the method ac-
counted for a reduction of 67 per
cent in injury rates at the Brook-
lyn Navy Yard during the war.
Several large organizations have
indicated “substantial decreases”
in accident totals since the incep-
tion of the City College program.

Training for accident control
will be based on the “human ele-
ment,” which has been proven re-
sponsible for 80 per cent of all

dents can be traced to mechanical
deficieny.

What the Fireman
Exam Will Be Like

The written test for Fireman
(F.D.), the next step in the com-
petitive process for the 17,917
candidates, is tentatively sched-
uled to be held on Saturday, May
15, and will be designed to reveal
the candidate's intelligence, initia-
tive, judgment, knowledge of re-
lated governmental agencies, and
capacity to learn the work of a
fireman.

The written test will have a
weight of 50, and 70 per cent will
be required, while the physical
test, to follow for the successful
candidates in the written, will also
carry a weight of 50, with 70 per
cent required. The written must
be passed, to entitle the candidate
to compete in the physical.

There will be no technical fire-
fighting questions—none on hy-
draulics and chemistry, for in-
stance.

The followtng continues the pub-
lication of the official questions
and key answers in the last (1946)
Fireman examination:

“Knowledge of the principal
properties of everyday chemicals
is a part of the stock in trade
of every scientific fire fighter.”

Below are two paragraphs re-
lating to the work of firemen.
Read each paragraph carefully
and then answer the questions
referring to that paragraph.

Paragraph I

“Everyone knows that ‘water
seeks its own level’; that it will
always flow _to the lowest acces-
sible point. If restrained, it exerts
Pressure against the restraining
object, whether this be the walls
of a drinking glass, a giant dam,
or a pipe to conduct it from one
place to another. The degree of
pressure exerted upon the walls of
a container at any point depends,
not on the quantity of water
stored, but on the vertical height
to which it is backed up; in other
words, the difference in elevation
between the point where the
pressure is measured and the sur-
face of the continuous body of
water that is restrained. The tech-
nical term for this difference of
elevation is ‘head,’ and in this
country it is usually measured in
feet. Firemen are more accus-
tomed to thinking of water pres-
sure in terms of pounds per square
inch, usually abbreviated to
‘pounds.’ It is very easy to con-
vert pressure in terms of ‘head’
to ‘pounds’; simply multiply the
head in feet by 0.433, and the re-
sult is pressure in terms of pounds
per square inch.”

76. According to the above par-
agraph, the “head” at a point
4 feet above the bottom of a tank
which is 12 feet deep and is filled

with water to within 2 feet of
the top of the tank is (A) 4 feet;
(B) 6 feet; (C) 8 feet; (D) 10
feet; (E) 12 feet,

77, The above paragraph ex-
plains what is meant by the prin-
ciple “water seeks its own level.’
Of the following, the practice
which is based most directl: upon
this principle is (A) using chemi-
cals rather than water in fire ex-
tinguishers; (B) placing sprinkler
systems in basements rather than
in the upper stories of a building;
(C) using 2% inch hose for fight-
ing fires rather than 3 inch hos
(D) placing fire hydrants at fre-
quent intervals along the street;
(E) placing a water tank on the
roof of a building.

The number 0.433 men-
tioned in the above paragraph is
best defined as the (A) tempera-
ture of water at a specific atmos-
pheric pressur (B) area of the
base of a specific restraining con-
tainer; (C) “head” at a point one
foot below the surface of the wa-
ter; (D) weight of a specific quan-
tity of water; (E) quantity of
water stored in a specific con-
tainer.

79. According to the above par-
agraph, water pressure is zero (A)
unless “head” is measured in
pounds per square inch; (B) where
the quantity of water stored is
excessively large; (C) when water
is flowing through a fire hose; (D)
if the pipe conducting the water
from one place to another is less
than one square inch in diameter;
(E) at the surface of a large body
of water restrained by a dam,

80. Suppose that water is con-
fined in a tank. According to the
above paragraph, pressure is exert
ed by the water (A) against the
walls of the tank; (B) in a direc-
tion level with the tank; (C) only
if the water seeks its own level;

(D) equivalent to atmospheric
Pressure; (E) inversely with
depth,

81. According to the above par-
agraph, to say that the water pres-
sure at a given point is 200 pounds
means most nearly that (A) the
weight of all the water above the
restraining point is 200 pounds;
(B) the force exerted by the wa
ter at that point is 200 pounds per
square inch; (C) the “head” is
20 pounds; (D) a cubic foot of
water at that point weighs 200
pounds; (E)the vertical height of
the water exceeds the equivalent
of 200 pounds,

82. On the basis of the above
paragraph, “head” may also be
accurately expressed in (A) cubic
feet; (B) square inches; (C) foot
pounds; (D) degrees; (E) yards.

Paragraph II

“When a pumper engine is
drafting water, the pump exhausts
air from the suction hose and
creates a partial vacuum, and air

pressure on the body of water
surrounding the suction hose
forces water through it to the

pump. The pressure of the atmos-
phere is approximately 14.7
pounds per square inch, so that
if a perfect vacuum could be se-
cured in the suction hose, water
could be’ raised a maximum ver-
tical distance of 34 feet. "his
theoretical maximum can never
be obtained in practice because no
pump is efficient enough to create
a perfect vacuum. Furthermore,
friction losses in the suction line
must be met, so that the maxi-
mum height through which a
small quantity of water can be
drafted is about 28 feet, while a
lift of 2414 feet could be consid~
ered the practical maximum, The
lift is measured from the surface
of the water to the center of the
pump suction, The atmospheric

pressure of 14.7 pounds per square
inch (ess than this at altitudes
above sea level) cannot be in-
creased; it is the maximum pres-
sure available. The more of it
that is used up in balancing the
water column in the suction hose,
the less that remains available
for friction losses, and the small-
er the quantities of water that
can be pumped. Also, the friction
loss increases with the length of
the suction hose.”

Answer questions 83 to 90 on
the basis of the information ap-
pearing in the above paragraph.

83. According to the above par-
agraph, the theoretical maximum
vertical distance of 34 feet that
water can be drafted by suction
is measured most accurately from
(A) one end of the suction hose
to the other; (B) the surface of
the water to the center of the
pump suction; (C) the open end
of the suction hose to the surface
of the water; (D) the surface of
the water to the center of the
hose; (E) the open end of the suc-
tion hose to a point 244% feet
below the surface of the water.

84. According to the above par-
agraph, in order to draw a maxi-
mum amount of water through
the suction hose (A) the vertical
lift should be kept as short as
possible; (B) the suction hose
should be as long as possible; (C)
the suction hose should be as nar-
row as possible; (D) the engine
should be operated as slowly as
possible; (E) friction should be
increased as much as possible.

5. The maximum vertical dis-

tance that water can be ralsed
depends least on the (A) amount
of air left in the suction hose by
the pump; (B) distance of the
pump above sea level; (C) amount
of friction in the hose; (D) effi-
ciency of the pump in creating
@ vacuum; (E) quantity of water
surrounding the hose,

86. According to the above par-
agraph, water is forced through
the suction hose by (A) pump
pressure (B) engine pressure; (C)
vacuum resistance (D) atmosphe-
ric pressure; (E) friction loss.

87. The information in the
above paragraph is most drectly
applicable to (A) drawing water
from a low pressure hydrant; (B)
drawing water from a high pres-
sure hydrant; (C) pumping water
to fires in fhe upper stories of
buildings; (D) pumping water to
fires located at a distance from
from the hydrant; (E) drawing
sea water for use at a fire,

88. To say that atmospheric
pressure is 14.7 pounds per square
inch at sea level means most
nearly that (A) there is a pres-
sure of 14.7 pounds on each square
inch of the surface of the water;
(B) a body with a density of
more than 14.7 pounds per square
nch will float on water; (C) water
Pressure is at least 14.7 pounds

Maintenance Men
Protest $1.16 Rate

In Court Proceeding

Attorney Samuel Resnicoff ap-
peared in the Supreme Court yes-
terday on behalf of Maintenance

Men employed by the Department
of Welfare for an order annulling

and vacating Comptroller Joseph’s
determination fixin gthe prevail-
ing rate of wages at $1.16 an hour

as of January 1, 1947.

Complaints pursuant to the La-

bor Law for prevailing rate of
wages were filed by Mr. Resnicoff
on behalf of the group on April
2, 1947. Hearings were subsequent-
ly held before the Comptroller
who on February 10, 1948, made
his determination fixing -the rate
at $1.16.

The suit was instituted in the

name of Rolando S. Malerbo and
on behalf of all the others simi-
larly situated. At the hearings be-
fore the Comptroller, the various
objections to the survey were over-
ruled by the Comptroller.

The petition filed with the court

alleges that the Comptroller's de-
termination is
and erroneous and that there was
no competent proof of all the facts
necessary to be proved in order
to justify the determination.

illegal, unlawful

Since the court will be called

upon to review the evidence taken
before the Comptroller, the prob-
abilities are the proceeding will be
referred to the Appellate Division.

Of two other groups, one will

accept the determination, while
the other group will file suit, it
was reported.

agraph, if the pump were operat-
ing considerably above sea level
(A) a larger quantity of water
could be pumped in the same peri-
od of time; (B) a less perfect

same degree of pumping efficien-
