tion is made through the person-
nel officer of one’s department. |
| The employees affected are]
| largely in labor type jobs, in the
| exempt class. The Comptroller ex-
| cepted their titles from eligibility |
for SERS membership, as of Sep-
mber 15, 1953, to meet a require-
ent of Federal law, to permit So-
‘al Security to apply. If not now
a member of the SERS but eligible,
apply for membership on or before
September 13, to prevent any
possibility of denial of SS bene-
fits.
The idea is that employees now
| under no system must come un-

Local governments are planning
to act similarly, to provide pen-
sion, insurance and other benefits

neither under the SBRS or 8S,
whether or not they are now eligi-
ble to SERS membership.
Questions Answered
Employees in various benefit
groups have posed questions, to
which the following are answers:
— Nearly

Q. I am a veteran. I worked in
private industry, but now am em-
ployed by the State. Do I lose my
SS benefits? A. No. You have dis-
continued SS contributions, but
the private industry jobs in “cov-
ered” employment, and service in
the armed forces, built up equities
under SS which establish benefits
that survive discontinuation of
contributions. If you are in any
way affected by the new situation,
you would either (a) come under
5S again, with contributions and
benefits made cumulative, or (b)
not be adversely affected under
your existing SS equities, if you're

The Pay Window

What Does Sociology Have To Do With Pay?
SOCIOLOGICALLY, it is a well-known fact that the basic unit
of modern society today is the family. This has been true for cen-
turies and will continue to be. The family is the backbone of our
social order
It follows, then, that the total amount of money
each of the thousands of homes of State employees
to that family’s manner of living, their well being, their ability to
take their proper place in their commun and to do their share
toward maintaining and improving what all Americans believe to be
true essence of modern democratic way of life, and to make the most
of an extremely complex social order.

tamily income of county and State workers in New York State, and
fan a poll on this subject last fall,
One of the matters of prime interest to the Association is not
only total family income of State employee family groups, but also
the sources of this income, whether wage income from a single wage
earner in the family, or whether more than one
gainfully employed to enable the family to live in comfort, This is a
very difficult thing to boil down st cally. There have been many |
statements that wives of State employees have had to go to work

The Pay Window
(Continued from Page 3)
the war, wage incomes leveled off but resumed their upward climb
as the nation converted to post-war full employment. From $2,400 in
1944 the median rose to $2,900 in 1947 and increased to $3,500 im
1951." -
Any comparison between the average family income and the
| “average State salary" admittedly, would, have to be carefully made,
Otherwise there could not be an honest evaluation of the figures,
| What can be done with somewhat more impunity would be to compare
the rate of change of family income and “average State salaries,”
Subject to limitations, the following conclusions are draw
Between 1939 and 1944 family income doubled. In 1939 it was
he ,200 and in 1944 it was $2,400, But because the inflationary cycle
| Was setting in, industrial salaries were moving ahead at a much more
lrapid than State salaries so that by 1944 State workers averaged
$2,144 a year or $250 @ year less than the average family income
State workens increased their salaries 23 percent while the income
of the nation’s families rose 100 percent, By 1947 family incomes
were up to $2,900 — @ 140 percent increase, while State workers made
an average of $2,490, a 43 percent increase. The overall average be-
tween 1939 and 1951 showed that family income rose 192 percent
State workers only 97 percent,

The Problem Remains
At least it can be concluded that, even if these figures are invalid
or conclusions unfair, the State worker does face this problem never=
theless: If the “average State salary” does not represent or is not
equivalent to “family income,” then it is self-evident that there must
be more than one wage earner in the group. (This writer considers
this sociologically undesirable, unfair to the growing children in the
case of working mothers, or it is poor social management to delay
rearing families because of the economic necessity of the working
wife),
If there is necessarily more than one wage earner in the State
worker's family group, then the pay level ts inadequate in the Ameri+
ean tradition, Thus we can conclude that either the above figures de
have validity and the State worker has fallen seriously behind im
his ability to compete with the “average family,” on income, or that
more than one family wage earner is necessary to live in reasonable
modern fashion. In either event, ® pay adjustment is necessary,

THE FINAL disposition of the case of Dr. Allen V. Austin, di-
rector of the National Bureau of Standards, shows Secretary of Com-
merce Sinclair Weeks yielding completely on the main issue; Shall
Dr. Austin be fired?
Of course, “fired” is too rough s word for the Secretary to use.
He announced some weeks ago that Dr. Astin was handing in his
resignation, but it was news to the good doctor. When protests from
public and scientists began swamping the Secretary, he announced
that Dr. Astin was being retained temporarily, pending a report of a
committee of scientists, To the Secretary's credit, he appointed am
eminently capable committee. He has not disclosed what the commit-
|tee recommended, but it’s a safe bet that it urged that Dr. Astin be
retained.
THE SECRETARY originally insisted emphatically that he was
going to appoint a new director, one who had administrative skill, and
a respect for the business aspects of problems that come before the
Bureau, Well, the Secretary couldn't throw in the sponge on every
thing, so he’s switched the Bureau from the jurisdiction of Under
Secretary Craig R. Scheaffer, and putting it under Assistant Secre-
tary James C. Worthy. It was Mr. Scheaffer who started the drive
against Dr. Astin after the manufacturer of a so-called storage bat-
tery life renewer, whom Mr. Schaeffer knew, complained that the
Bureau's report that the exhilarater didn’t do any exhilarating at
all, resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars in busi-
ness, Also, the Post Office Department issued a fraud order against
the company, but the order was cancelled last week.
Now the manufacturer is planning a nationwide advertising cam-
paign, and hiring 100 more salesmen, saying that he can really ge
\* town, with the Government at last off his neck. Dr. Astin, whe
| won't say for publication that he was vindicated, does appreciate
| the Secretary's complete change of mind, and feels flattered at job
offers from private industry, some at three times his Federal pay.
THE AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION at its Boston convention
will recommend that a study be made of the effects of the Presiden-
tial executive order creating the new Schedule C, comprised of jobs
to be filled by absolute power of appointment, instead of competitively,
or on some other civil service basis, The association seems to suspect
that the good of the service was the only motive behind the executive
order, but that filling good jobs with good Republicans was at least
one incentive.
From what top officials said just
before the order was issued, in-
cluding the prophesy that thou-
|sands, and perhaps up to 300,000
|jobs would be affected, it did
seem as if the operation was in-
\tended to much more drastic
|than it turned out to be. Since
|then the whole program has been
ltoned down, too, in an attempt
!to mollify protesters, and it ap-
pears that the number of jobs af-
fected will not exceed hundreds,
\instead of running into the hun-
dreds of thousands,

FREDERICK D, ROBINSON of Elmira, the first Negro appointed

Federal departments will go in heavily for decentralization, This is
exactly the opposite to the policy during the F.D.R. and Truman ad-
| ministrations. First departments to be affected are the Treasurey,
whose Internal Revenue Bureau's field office will take over many
duties formerly performed by the central office, and the Post Office
Department, which is to have 13 regional offices, something entirely
new in that department.

credits under the SERS, but mean-
while whatever benefits you're en-

Stop Headlight Glare!
Actually See After Dark!
DO YOU DRIVE YOUR CAR AFTER DARK? Do you
know that 4 out of 5 fatal
ers to SAFE, careful d
amash-ups are caused at night
rivers who are trapped
blinded .*. and killed by the headlights of another man’s car?
Here is the first full story
how you can completely avoid that
blinding headlight glare avoid
those night driving accidents
how you can actually drive at night
with almost full daylight safety!
How many times this month
have you been completely blinded
by the headlights of another car?
How many times have you been
blinded when you were driving
20-40-60-miles an hour . 7. when
you were in the middle of # dan
gerous intersection . . . when you
were turning @ sharp curve or
corner? Yes, how many times this
month have you been forced to
trust your life—and the lives of
your family — to a driver who
doesn’t even have the sense to dim
his headlights?
These Accidents
Can Be Avoided
De you know that now you can
avoid all these risks? Do you know
that during the last five years over
70,000 drivers have found a new
way to protect themselves against
9 headlight blindness? That
these drivers have tested and
proved an optical instrument that
ally makes the brightest head-
hts as easy to take as dims!
re is that amazing story; 5%
Five years ago, three of the
country’s top optical experts de-
cided to tackle this problem of
headlight glare. They immediately
discovered that all of the common
remedies were either useless or
actually dangerous, These experts
discovered that there was only one
sure way to protect yourself against
this blinding night glare—a piece
of optically colored glass worn by
you, yourself—that filters out the
glare from these headlights in ex-
y the same way that a pair of
asses filters out the glare ot
These experts discovered that
ecic had developed such
many of the leading
¢ manufacturers, such
c, Oldsmobile,
coln and Chrysler—were equipping
their special deluxe models with
special glare-resistant windshields
However, the cost of this glass on
these special cars was necessarily
$20-$50, =
‘0 avoid these costs these ex-
perts took this special glare-resist
ant glass and built it into a pair
of Night Driving Glasses that could
be worn by any driver. Since they
eliminated all rays of glare, th
perts called them
Driving Glasses. Here are some of
the amazing results they discovered
when they tested them.
This Is How Night
Driving Should Be

lights. You will see the headlights

Driving GLAS: your eyes will
be protected against any intrusion
of glare. They will not have to

You will actually
be able to see better clearer
and farther with them on than
you could see without them. You
will see dark objects more quickly.
You will react more quickly to the
pedestrian who darts out of a side
street to the dark bumps in
the road that ruin your tires
3. SINCE THESE RAYEX Night
Driving GLASSES PROTECT
YOUR EYES AGAINST STRAIN,
you will not suffer from dangerous
night driving headaches. You will
be able to drive as much as 400
miles im a single night without
feeling the slightest strain. . You
will not be tired after short rides.
And, above all, tired, strained eyes
will not cause you to fall asleep
at the wheel, You may make even

Statewide Conference
John £. Carton, ident, Nee
Conference of the State of New
York, as he is now.
Twenty-elght years ago, a career
policeman who was born in a
Hudson Valley hamlet formed an
organization to obtain career po-
licemen not only for the NYC po-
Uce department in which he was
serving as @ patrolman, but for
State and local governments in the|
State. He devoted his life to bet-|
tering police service and the po-
liceman’'s job,
He was the late Joseph P.
Moran, The delegates to the 28th
annual convention of the Police
Conference of the State of New| «
York, in session now in NYC, term
him the “father” of their organi
zation, which now has 199 affi-
Nated units with a membership of
about 40,000 policemen.
Four Left of Original Dozen
Four upstate men of the dozen
conference organizers are alive to-
day. They are Frank J, Carr, Buf-
falo; Thomas Farrara, Utica; Ed-
ward Flynn, Schenectady, and)
Peter Keresman, of Kingston, who
is executive secretary to the Con
ference,
“Mr, Moran, an energetic, stu-
dious youth, went te NYC from
Eddyville, about three miles south
of Kingston, Ulster County” said
“From his farmer
parents he had inherited common
sense and Independence and being
gifted with fine distinction between
right and wrong, he had high
estimation of a policeman's duty; |
and his practice of law enforce-
ment won for him the admiration
of the neighborhood which he pa-
troled. It resulted, however, in
official questioning which con
vinced Mr. Moran that s police-
man’s Job wasn’t what he thought
it was and should be.”
Mr. Keresman’s family were
neighbors of the Morans in the
Kingston area. Mr. Keresman was
a rookie on the Kingston police
force and Mr. Moran, on his occa~
sional visits upstate, recognized
parallel police ideals in the King-
ston patrolman.
‘The Propitious Start
Later, when _ president
NYC Patrolmen's Benevolent Asso-
ciation, Mr. Moran outlined to
|Mr. Keresman visions for attrac-
tive career policemen toe every
jurisdiction.
Mr. Moran saw police service to
|| be a State responsibility of utmost
importance and believed that a
Policeman should be freed from
Politics and favoritism, operating
asa public servant. This required
action by the Legislature and the
Governor, as did improvements in
working conditions, he said.
Mr. Moran explained that he

Of Police Convenes;
A Bit of Reminiscing
placed his idea before Governor
Alfred E. Smith and other public-
spirited men, including newspa-
per editors.
Would Mr. Keresman help with
a state-wide organization, Mr.
Moran asked, saying that this was
necessary to align legislative and
executive support to police service.
Mr. Keresman would help. Tt
organizing group also Included th
late Edward T. Schwalb, Roches-
ter; E. J. Buck, Syracuse; Michael
O’Haron, Schenectad: Joseph
Schultz, Troy; Frank Ryan, Mount
Vernon; Philip Sheridan, Yon-
kers, and Joseph A. Dunn, of New
Rochelle, Keresman recollects.
Selecting the title Police Con-
ference of the State of New York,
the group took their problems to
the Legislature and legislation
was enacted providing for one day
off in seven, an eight-hour day,
and the right of a policeman to
court review of any charges and
protection of pension rights, all on
& statewide basis.
Conference Now On
John E. Carton, president of
the NYC PBA, ts now serving his
fourth term as president of the
Police Conference, and is presid-
ing at the 1953 convention to be
held at the Commodore Hotel,
NYC, on August 31, September
1, 2 and 3.
At the convention the Confer-
ence will press for a statewide 40-
hour week, and optional retire-
ment after 25 years’ service. Mea
ures to attain these goals have
been presented to the Legislature
