Employees at a meeting in Albany.

The various provisions of the

tion had presented to the Civil
Service Commission months ago
& very complete set of suggested
rules and that representatives of
the Association had followed up
such presentation with definite
criticism of rules suggested by the

Definite Hours Omitted

The principal objection to the
present rules was that they do not
establish definite hours of work

Ing discretion as to what hours

Before Kenngott

John T. DeGraif, Leo M, Britt and

‘William F, McDouough of the As-

sociation of State Civil Service

Employees at a special conference

called by Edwin B. Kenngott and

other officials at the State Retire-

System offices in Albany,

im detail the Association's

for granting minimum

Pensions, 25-year retirement,

separation benefits, Increased

death benefit and several other

‘as contained in the As-
Sociation’s general program.

“The Association feels that the
expansion of retirement benefits
is not essentially a of
adopting one or two of the bene-
fits proposed,” said Dr, Tolman.
“We feel that our program is in-
tegrated with the whole problem
of social security for public work-
ers, It should be realized that the

State employees do not come un-
der the Federal social security

Program. Therefore, the substan-
tial benefits which present-day
concepts prescribe should be writ-
ten into the State Retirement Law.
State employees are willing to|
— their fair share of added}
costs."

Emergency Pay Project
Mr. DeGraff pointed out that
the Association was anxious to
have legislation also to secure to
State employees the benefits of
State contributions and employee
contributions on the basis of the
emergency pay which has pre-
vailed during the past three years

Mr, Britt urged that the State|
Retirement law should be amend-
ed to provide for 25-year retire-

‘The general matter of 25-year re-
Urement law was discussed.

Representatives of other groups

also appeared at the hearing. :

STATE ASSOCIATION PIONEERS
IN FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION

HE only way to fight inflation is to fight it.

That’s why the action last week by the Association
of State Civil Service Employees is one of the most signi-
ficant and important ever taken; and why its action should
be followed by every other group of Bac employees, fixed-
wage workers, white-collar men and women.

The State Association is acting to “hold the line.” It is
also acting to protect the employee against the ravages of
price rises which have already come.

The organization has prepared statistical data showin;
how living-cost index has gone up far beyond the pay o
public employees. The fight against inflation, and for ade-
quate pay to meet current living costs, is the great order of
business now before the State employees, They will need
every aid, every tool, in this struggle. If they lose, they
face grueling hardship. They must not lose.

In an editorial on this page on October 16, The LEADER
said:

_“The public employee must begin at once his preparation
against being victimized by inflation. Campaigning to hold
the line against ination, he yet knows that once the line is
broken, he will bear it hard. Let him fight against the re-

moval of ceiling. But let him act, at th i
Soe at the same time, to pro-

_ The LEADER recommends support for the ASCSE
action from every citizen of the United States.
This newspaper is 100 per cent behind the employees,
and will help them with all the means at its eommand.

RAMSPECK'S RESIGNATION
COSTLY TO CIVIL SERVICE

J ey resignation of Representative Robert R. Ramspeck
(D,, | ya.) points up the necessity of higher Federal pay.
He resigned his $10,000 job to become vice-president of
an airline association at $25,000.

He has long been an advocate of adequate pay for
Federal workers and has been responsible for more con-
atructive civil service legislation than probably any other
member of Congress. He has been chairman of the House
civil service committee with distinction. Not only Federal
workers, but civil service employees generally, are in-
debted to him, because he fought to elevate eivil service.
What helps a branch helps the tree.

The new pay bill, if adopted, likely will benefit
Representatives, too, and it is to be hoped that Mr, Rams-
peck’s resignation carries no implication of any untoward
outcome of that legislation, As the bill stands now, there
is considerable difference of opinion concerning pay raises
in the higher brackets, but less concerning the need for
raising those in the low and medium pay brackets.

It would have been nice to have found Mr. Ramspeck
in there pitching for the pay bill, with all his might and
courage, yet, since he considers the acceptance of the new
post a family necessity, maybe others will hearken to the
ery of family necessity as applied to less illustrious Fed-
eral workers, whose daily work is nevertheless also of
importance to the public welfare. Certainly Federal work-
ers, and, it is hoped, all who knew of him, and especially
those who had the privilege of knowing him personally
and working with him, will wish him the grandest possible
success in his new undertaking.

Federal pay bill was subjected to
@ full-dress Senate debate, with
amendments being offered either
to mollify the opposition or to

n.

Senator Downey himself, who
has been backing the proposed 20
per cent raise for U. 8, worke:
as reported out by the Senate Civil

rvice Committee, offered and
then withdrew a proposed amend-
ment.

This amendment would have
wiped out the 15.9 per cent in-
crease which became effective July
1 last and substituted a 40 per
cent raise for the first $1,200 and

30 per cent for those
above $1,200 to $10,000.
A Littl Chiding
When Senator Byrd chided Sen-
io Downey that nobody seemed |
to favor the committee's report

amendment was withdrawn, espe-
| cially under threat by the opposi-
tion to recommit the bill. Senator
Downey then returned to full sup-

Question 2.

While off duty on your way
home in @ district which fs not
on your post, you see two men
threatening each other and ap-
parently on the verge of a fist
fight. Your first action under
these circumstances should be to
(a) step in and find out the
reason for the argument. (b)
arrest the man making the threat
in order to prevent a breach of
the peace, (c) wait until they
actually start fighting and then
step in and arrest them both, (d)
display your authority and: dis-
perse the men, (e) push the men
apart and if they show fight, take
them to the station house,

Question 3.

Suppose you are on patrol duty
lone evening in an east side area,
and you notice a group of boys
standing in front of a Jaundry
store window. One of the boys
heaves a rock through the win-
dow and they all flee. Under
these circumstances it would be
the best procedure first to (a)
ascertain the extent of the dam-
age and the motive which led to
the Incident, (b) fire your revol~
ver at the boys and call upon
them to halt, (c) blow your
whistle, give chase and attempt to
apprehend the leader, (d) call
your precinct for a station wagon
and arrest the boys, (e) deputize
a few passers-by and ask them to
|give chase.

Question 7

‘Third degree should not be used
by the police since this method
rarely produces the truth, If a
man is sufficiently tortured, he
will confess to anything, and -if
a legal case is built around this
confession, it will prove to be
valid.

ing of the above passage is (a)

Question 8

Suppose you are a patrolman,
off duty and in civilian clothes on
your way home at about mid-
night, While crossing the street
you recognize a criminal who
three months before had escaped
from an up-State prison, where he
had been serving a sentence for
second degree murder, Under
these circumstances your first ac-
tion should be to (a) call your
Precinct for immediate assistance
while you keep the man covered
(b) draw your gun and call on the
thug to surrender (c) shadow the
criminal for a few blocks until
you come across another patrol-
man in uniform, and then blow
your whistle (d) follow the man
to his hide-out, call your precinct
and have the place surrounded

“In the case where a patrol<
man receives a warrant for the
arrest of a person charged with
an offense and he knows that the
person named did not commit the
crime as charged, he should at
once notify the issuing court or
Magistrate as to the innocence of
the person. Then he must there~
after proceed with the serving if
so directed by the court.” The
most valid of the following infer-
ences which may be drawn from
this passage is (A) it is ilegal
to serve a warrant on a person
who !s alleged to be innocent; (B)
in all cases where the court issues
& warrant of arrest, it must be
notified as to the purported guilt
or innocence of the person in=
volved; (C) it is understood im-
plicitly that patrolmen, prior to
the service of an arrest warrant,
should make some attempt to as-
certain the innocence of the per
son being served; (D) arbitrary
discretion in the service of an
arrest warrant rests with the

warrant, it is discretionary with

may have all the light you want, wherever you want it, and for as
long as you want it,

Light—the symbol of peace and hope— glows throughout the city in
its first peacetime Christmas in five years. Thousands of sparkling
shop windows speak of prosperous days ahead. The flashing beacons
of towering skyscrapers, breathtaking spectaculars, and the cheerful
radiance of millions of workshops, offices and homes herald the great
and glowing opportunities in the world that lies ahead.

It's a new world, a glowing world, and its eyes are focused here. So

.-- LIGHTS ON, NEW YORK!

Consolidated Edison Company, in cooperation with the General
Electric Company, Westinghouse Electric Corporation, Sylvania
Electric Products, Ine., and Cooperating Appliance Merchants now
offer a “Lights On, New York!” campaign package of 6 bulbs (two
100-watts, two 60-watts, and two 40-watts) for the new and lower price
of 70¢, plus tax. This is.12¢ lower even than prewar prices; and,
coupled with Consolidated Edison's new $6,000,000 electric rate
duction, it makes good lighting the biggest bargain of the year.

You can place your order now for the **Lights On, New York!"
campaign package of bulbs at any Consolidated Edison showroom, or
at your cooperating neighborhood appliance dealer or department store
and get immediate delivery. Consolidated Edison employees in the fleld
will also take your order for bulb packages.

sprinkler systems. Connection is
made directly from @ pipe in the
sprinkler system, 1, to & chamber
2, partially filled with water, above
which is compressed alr, 3, at the
