U.S. Employees in Field May
Appeal Efficiency Ratings
WASHINGTON,—Employees’ in
the field service of the Federal
service—those employees outside
of Washington—now can make
written appeals if they are dis-
satisfied with their efficiency
ratings,
Under new regulations handed
down by the Civil Service Com-
mision, an employee outside of
Washington can appeal his rating
in writing to the Board of Review
at the headquarters of his agency
in Washington,
For example, if an employee of
the War Department in New
York is dissatisfied with his rat-
ing he can write up his appeal
and send it to the Board of Re-
view at the War Department in
Washington.
This procedure was decided
upon by the Commission in an ef-
fort to save time and transporta,
tion costs,
‘They're Important
Efficiency ratings are important
this year. They are the difference,
oftentimes, between an in-grade
salary raise, For example, if an
employee gets a “good” rating
and if he is paid the average of
his grade or above he can’t bg
given an automatic in-grade sal.
ary jump as provided by tho
Ramspeck-Mead automatic pro.
motion. bill,
An employee who is rated
“fair” must be given a salary cut
and “unsatisfactory” employees
must be fired or demoted.
So much favoritism has been
shown in dealing with the em.
ployees that Congress gave them
the opportunity to appeal their
ratings sometime ago.
Postal Subs Condemn
‘Dog-in-Manger’ Outlook
“A manpower survey this week
among post office department
substitutes conducted by a Sub-
stitutes’ Committee of Branch 36,
National Association of Letter
Carriers, proves that the subs’
high manpower ratings entitle
them to prompt appointments as
regular or immediate furloughs
enabling them to take war jobs.”
‘This was the opinion expressed
by the NALC Substitutes’ Com-
mittee and the Joint Substitutes’
Committee of AFL postal unions
throughout Greater New York,
Said a spokesman: “The war
manpower commission ratings
show that the post office poople
rate among the highest on tt
list, Either the subs should be
promoted to fill the many vacan-
cles left by regulars or else bo
permitted to accept war work,
Subs’ experience and training
show they are quite capable of
doing work of great value to the
wer effort.”
‘The subs charged that the per.
sonnel policy of the post offi
department has been “ham.
stringing the war effort,” that
“the dog in manger attitude
adopted hy tne post office de-
partment toward the manpower
crisis is one thing: that ‘should
be corrected immediately."
‘They pointed ot to, the confi-
dence shown by Jesse Donaldson,

General, in ‘the subs’ ability to
make a valuable addition to the
effort, and his belief that

Much of the fire of members ot
Congress has been centered on the
War Department which has
grown from a peace-time agency
of 60,000 civilians to more than

Await Decisionin 3-A Case
As Important Precedent
By MICHAEL SULLIVAN
Supreme Court Justice Benedict
D, Dineen had not as yet handed
down a decision in the case of the
8-A fire eligibles versus Fire
Chief and Commissioner Patrick
Walsh, as The LEADER went to
press. No appointments will be
made to the Fire Department in
the rank of fireman, until a de-
cision is handed down.
The 3-A fire eligibles who have
instituted court action against
Chief Walsh are those who were
passed over September 15 when
146 firemen were appointed. ‘The
boys insisted that Walsh had ab-
solutely no right to skip them be-
cause of a 3-A draft status, The
city’s law department contends
that Walsh acted within his rights
on the grounds that the public
welfare would be protected by
passing over men whose draft
classifications might be changed
to 1-A after they are appointed.
Foresee Favorable Decision
Students of civil service law are
unanimous in their opinion that
Dineen's decision will favor the
eligibles. Recently, H. Eliot Kap-
lan, executive secretary of the
Civil Service Reform Association,
who was one of the authorities
consulted by city officials at the
time the Halpern amendment, giv-
ing appointing officers of Police,
Fire and Correction Departments
the right to pass over men in 1-A
was framed, declared that “it was
made quite clear that this law
was meant to apply only to elig-
ibles in 1-A.”
More Problems
A decision favoring the city
would bring new, more involved
problems to the fireman list.
Among the questions which would
have to be answered are:
“Would the 3-A men be entitled
to a place on a special military
preferred list?
“Would the 3-A men be on the
list at all?’ (Some authorities
point out that because their names
would have been passed over three
times they would no longer be
available for the Fire Department
unless they were specifically called
for by the Fire Commissioner).
Even in the event of a favor
able decision for the eligibles, the
problem of dismissing the men ap-
pointed and replacing them with
the 147 men passed over because
of their draft status would be a
highly complicated one. Also, The
LEADER has learned that the
Fire Commissioner, with the per-
mission of Mayor LaGuardia, may
exercise the one out of three rule
and deliberately pass over as
many 3-A eligibles as he is legally
entitled to do,
Under civil service law, appoint-
ing officers are permitted to name
only one out of three persons on
an eligible list, provided the con-
sent of the Mayor is obtained,
However, this law is never re-
sorted to in actual practise. It’s
use by Chief Walsh with La-
Guardia’s approval, would set a
precedent which might be fol-
lowed by other departments.
Meanwhile, interest in Dineen's
forthcoming decision is at fever
pitch, As soon as the opinion is
delivered, full details will appear
in The LEADER,
Is Mayor Holding Up Action
On Employee Negotiation Bill?
There is a strong possibility,
The LEADER learned this week,
that Majority Leader Joseph T.
Sharkey is holding up action on
the éollective negotiations bill be-
cause Mayor LaGuardia may not
like the bill.
“The Mayor doesn’t like the
bill,” Mr. Sharkey is reported to
have said behind closed doors
when the measure — which pro-
vides for nothing more drastic
than discussion of grievances be-
tween employees’ representatives
and department heads—came .up
for discussion the other week in
the Civil Employees’ Committee.
‘That was the day Mr, Sharkey
helped to stifle action on tte
measure sponsored by Council-
men Louis P. Goldberg and
Salvatore Ninfo and Council
woman Gertrude Weil Klein,
That was the day, too, that Mr,
Sharkey and a number of his
cohorts banded together and re-
fused to set any date for a pub-
lic hearing on the bill. Indeed,
they tried to rule the bill out of
existence without a public hear-
ing at all, contrary to all ac-
cepted procedures in such cases,
No Explanation Yet
Mr. Sharkey still hasn't ex-
plained why he is so anxious to
prevent action on the bill. The
last heard from him was his
declaration on the Council floor,
in reply to Mr. Goldberg's query
as to when he intended to bring
the bill out of committee,
Mr. Sharkey's contention then
was that the bill had only ‘just
been discussed." But, contends
Mr. Goldberg, it hasn't been
heard,
Mr. Sharkey has often declared
himself to be a Councilman who
does not act in accordance, neces-
sarily, with the Mayor's wishes,
“His statement at an executive
session of the Civil Service Em
ployees’ Committee does not bear
this out,” The LEADER was told
this week by a prominent Council-
man,
Mr. Goldberg urged civil service
workers to ask their employee or
ganizations to call mass meetings
in Manhattan demanding favor-
able action.
‘The bill has already received the
tentative O.K. of a majority o*
the Council, according to a poll
by The LEADER. When the test
came in the Civil Employces’
Committee and on the floor of
Council however, few were
anxious to press for it, Very few,

Work Week
Is Unequal,
Says Hughes
The Civil Service League this
Week protested that some field
workers are compelled to work a
full six-day week and lose holi-
days whereas a number of in-
side workers have a much Hghter
schedule,
Pointing out that Mayor La-
Guardia’s six-day work-week order
has placed the burden on outside
workers and not on the clerical
groups ‘mainly because,” in tha
words of John J, Hughes, League
president, “every department or+
ganization is headed by clerical
pecs latwho aren't much interested
in the others,"’ the Le gue cll-

Tt is hard to believe that de-
partment heads would permit
abuse of the Mayor's order with-
out some sort of silent permis-
sion,” said Mr. Hughes. ‘We
think the Mayor ought to rescind
his order entirely and eliminate
the confusion,”
To which he added: ‘Inside
workers, who in most cases con-
trol employee organizations, must
be condemned for suddenly halt-
ing a vigorous fight a inst the

Elevator Mechanic
Wages in Doubt
An increase was indicated this
week in the $1122 a day wage
rate for elevator constructor
The LEADER has learned that
the matter of arriving at deduc-
tions from the total amount of
the prevailing wage is doubtful at
this time because of the fluctua-
tions of that wage in private in-
dustr;
In fact, a forthcoming court de-
cision wilt have to determine if
there is any basis for making de-
ductions, and, if an affirmative
decision is reached, in what
amount.
Proceedings this week in the
prevailing wage hearings in
office of Morris Paris, Assi
the
ant
Deputy Comptroller, resulted
selection of November 18 as the
date for adjudication of the wage
rate concerning levator me-
chanics.
It Must Be the Air
The name of another LEADER
reader who perfect
physical score on the conductor
test was revealed this week. Tha
reader is Abraham Young, who
finished number 164 on the list.
Abraham lives at 1,309 Hoe Ave+
nue, the Bronx, which borough
seems to specialize in future cons
ductors who are physically per-
fec'
received a
gargantuan task, As soon as the
list is certified, details of pending
appointments will appear in The
LEADER.
‘The request to limit the replace-
ment of provisionals to 300 each
week, was made by William
Jerome Daly, secretary of the
Board of Transportation, In mak-
ing the request to the Civil Serv-
ice Commission, Daly pointed out
that the necessity to train new
appointees prior to their assign-
ment to duty prevented the re-
placement of a large number of
provisional employees at once. He
added that the medical and oper-
ating divisions of the Board
could only handle 300 new men
during the course of one week,
The replacement of the 300 pro-
visionals will be divided equally
in the three titles each week, 100
for conductor, 100 for street ear
operators, and 100 for railroad
clerk,
‘The 1,295 provisionals now em-
ployed in both permanent and

Union Calls for
Wage Increase
A new wage adjustment pro-
gram for city, State and USE
employees was adopted last week
at the first fall meeting of all the
chapter and local executive boards
in the New York District of the
SCMWA. The program calls for
cost-of-living wage adjustments
for the following categories: low-
paid hospital workers, skilled
technicians, employees in the
mandatory increment group earn-
ing Jess than $1,200 « year, et
Ployees in the non-mandatory
group and workers in mental hy-
giene institutions.
In addition, the union program
asks for the establishment of
$1,200 minimum in the State ser-
vice. For USES employees, the
union is calling for time and a
half for overtime exceeding 40
hours a week as well as for the
maintenance of Feld-Hamilion in-
crements, The question of wage
adjustments for city employces in
the mandatory gr ‘oup Was referred
back to the union's executive
board for further consideration,
The program was outlined in a
report presented to the meeting
by James V. King, the union's
acting secretary-treasurer, who
added that the union's program
was based on the wage stabiliza-
tion formula applied by the War
Labor Board to steel workers,
This formula provides for a 15
percent wage boost for employ-
ees to meet the rise in the cost
of living since January, 1941, and
an extra allotment for workers
with sub-standard wages,

Worth to Hospital Worker?
A schedule of maintenance
values for employees of State in-
stitutions has been prepared by J.
Buckley Bryan, Director of the
State Budget. Amotnts which
are planned to be deducted from
wage levels established under the
Feld-Hamilton law have been set
for a variety of services which
are at present furnished the em-
ployees by the State. Included
in these services are living quar-
ters, meals, medical care, garages,
domestic service, etc.
‘The reason for submitting the
tables, Bryan declared, is to stim-
ulate intelligent discussion and
to solicit constructive criticism
to the end that inequalities may
be eliminated, unique features of
location properly adjusted and a
fair and equitable paitern of
maintenance values established.
‘The values established are de-
pendent upon the quality of quar-
ters assigned to the employee,
the nature of the facilities fur-
nished, the number of adults and .
children in a family group, and

There has been some bitter-
ness among eligibles on the re-
cently published State Motor Ve-
hicle Responsibility Adjudicator
list, on several grounds, but main-
ly on the ground that three of the
temporary appointees are not on
the list at all. Typical is the let-
ter printed below — but it is less
vitriolic than others that have
come in. It is by one of the elig-
ibles who has asked that his name
be withheld.
“J would appreciate very much
if you would look into the situa~
tion that now exists relative to
the eligible list of the Motor Ve-
hicle Responsibility Adjudicator
which was established on or about
September 18, 1942, Following the
publication of this list by the
Civil Service Commission, there
appeared an article in your
issue of October 6, 1942, which
reported the appointment of six
persons as temporary employees
pending the outcome of litigation
to contest the legality of the ad-
judicator list of eligibles.
It seems that certain provision-
als who were unsuccessful in
passing the written, instituted
court proceedings to contest the
legality of this list. I do not care
to comment too much upon the
steps taken by these provisionals.
This procedure, which seems to
have become a habit, should be
severely denounced for these at-
tempts, if successful, will destroy
the very foundation upon which
the Civil Service rights are based.
However, in my opinion, a more
serious situation has occurred,
The appointment of the six tem-
porary employees calls for a thor-
ough investigation, Of the names

League of Women Voters, re-
signed recently for a Washing-

She has already left to take up
her new duties. After a few
months in Washington she will be
assigned to one of the regional
offices of the board embracing
several states. “As ‘personnel

‘While the states administer Fed-

concerned must meet certain

That Sergeant List
Last week, we told you that
failure notices on the sergeant's
examination might be mailed out
by the Civil Service Commission
during the week. We were just
about one week ahead of time,
This week we can say that, bar-
ring unforeseen eventualities, the
patrolmen who took that grueling
five-hour exam on June 14, 1941
and were unable to get a passing
mark will receive their notices
from the Civil Service Commis-
sion, Next week, we won't say
anything at all about sergeants
unless we want to be peeling po-
tatoes for the duration and six
months after.
Miss May B. Upshaw, director
of examinations ot the Civil Serv-
ice Commission, stated that she
sees no reason why the Commis-
sion will not adhere to its usual
practice of sending out notices of
failure one week and passing
marks at a later date, This pro-
cedure, she said, will be followed
with the sergeant’s test. Here's
hoping that the postman does not
ring your bell during the next few
days,
Candidates who pass will receive
their marks from the Commission
Just before the list will be released
for publication, Chief Clerk Mef.
ford informs us that there are 108
and 12B sergeant vacancies in the
current budget. Provisions had
been made to promote 25 patrol-
men to sergeants just before the
last Heutenant’s exam, Now that
the 25 vacancies have accrued, the
quota goes down to the figure of
1,047 provided in the current
budget, Of these 1,017 sergeants’
positions allowed, 108 are vacan-
cies which will be filled from the
forthcoming list,

There are 132 vacancies for ser-
geants waiting to be filled when

The Problems
Of the Hospitals
ITH this issue, The LEADER begins more
W thorough consideration of the problems of New
York City's Hospital Department and its em-
s. A number of stories appear in these pages, de-
ned to give a general picture of some of these prob-
lems—-and a broad view of the Department's work,
As our reporters covered the story and brought in
their facts, we came to the conclusion that New Yorkers
— including ourselves—have had too little realization of
the vastn and importance of the work being accom-
plished; it’s just been taken for granted, We've learned
to have a deeper respect for the little people in the hos-
pitals—the attendants, the helpers, the practical nurses
—who do a tough, hard job quietly, efficiently, and with-
out complaint.
Now, in time of war, when the proper maintenance of
hospitals becomes of crucial importance to the people,
New York's Hospital Department has suffered serious
losses of staff. The armed forces and the war production
industries have cut sharply into the ranks of workers in
all catego: The Department has resorted to every
possible recruiting method to find at least some replace-
ments.
Which brings us to the crux of this editorial. Hospi-
tal workers are notoriously the most underpaid persons
in the community. That men and women should be
expected to live on tie pittance they receive is a sorry
comment on our budgetary policies. This town has got
to understand that the wages of hospital workers
must go up, Otherwise the city faces possibilities in the
depletion of hospital personnel. It seems to us that
$1,200 a year minimum salary is little enough for the
important war work performed by our hospital em-
ployees,

Pleads for Use of
Special Cop List
Sirs: I hope the New York
City Civil Service Commission
will combine both the patrolman
and special patrolman lists in the
near future. It is certain that
the city will not be able to fill all
the vacancies In the Police De-
partment from the patrolman list.
he men on the special role
n list are certainly more quali-
fied to be policemen in New York
City than eligibles the Commis-
sion might get by reducing the
nt physical standards, 1
the age limit to 35, and hold-
ing a new examination,
sh one of the eligibles on the
special patrolman list passed one
of the toughest physical tests ever
held. Before they could even
e the physical test they had
to pass the same mental exami-
nation for trolman candidates,
In many cases the special patrol-
man eligibles received higher
scones on either the mental or the
ph al test than the men on the
regular patrolman list, It is only
that the combined average was
not as high,
Speaking of averages, since
when does 80 per’cent seem like a
fair passing mark? This is the
average a patrolman candidate

to present a message in behalf
of the Department of Hospital
The Department of Hospitals
during normal times employs
00 men and women to carry
on the various functions which
ure essential for the proper care
cf more than 300,000 hospital
patients and 450,000 clinic
patients yearly. War-time condi-
tions have reduced our staff by
4,000. Despite this tremendous
manpower shortage, we have
managed to keep our 26 institu-
tions going and we have made
and are making every attempt to
provide the same careful, efficient
© of service which has charac-
terized our accomplishment in the
past,
I am sincerely thankful to our
thousands of employees for the
Manner in which they have helped

The
fy
for the Emergency Medical Serv-
ice of the Civilian Defense Pro-
gram. Our most serious concern,
however, is the difficulty of keep-
ing our skilled Nursing Services
properly staffed. Many nurses
have left to join the armed
services. Others have found mor
profitable employment elsewhere.
In an effort to meet this condi-
tion, we have developed the fol-
lowing three-fold program:
1. — Nationwide appeals have
been made to attract young peo-
ple to our Nursing Schools, With
the assistance of the Federal
Government, our training facil
ties have been increased.
2.—We have developed a volun-
teer program Including the train-
ing of hundreds of volunteer
nurses’ aides for part-time serv-
ice in our institutions,
3.—We have undertaken a pro-
gram of reorganization of methods
which limits the activities of
nurses to skilled nursing work,
and, as a part of the same pro-
gram, we are training hospital
attendants to take over some of
the non-professional duties usual-
ly assigned to nurses, Almost
1,000 nursing vacancies have been
filled with hospital attendants and
850 actual vacancies still exist,
An Appeal
We appeal to men and women
who are willing to learn and who
are not afraid of hard work to
apply to our Division of Nursing
The Hospital Dept. and the War
for positions in the hospital helper
and hospital attendant categorios,
The work is not easy, and the
salaries are yery modest. The
duties will undoubtedly become
progressively more difficult as the
war demands upon the personnel
of this department become in-
tensively severe. Persons inter-
ested in hospital work who are
able to offer their services on a
volunteer sis, are urged to ap-
ply through the various Civilian
Defense Volunteer offices. As for
the general public—we know that
they will continue to appreciate
our problems and will, through
their sympathetic understandin;
continue to assist us in our dif-
ficult job.
Nursing—A Wide Open Field
For the Girl With Talent
‘The lady greatly in demand in
the Hospitals Department today is
the graduate nurse.
With the armed services taking
more and more 0” them and flat-
ly declaring that 3,000 a month
are needed throughout the na-
tion, hospitals in the City just
can’t get enough student nur
Even the new school of nursing
opened in Fordham Hospital in
September, 1941, and the increase
in enrollment in other schools in
the City as well as the develop
ment of special war classes have
not produced and will not pro-
duce sufficient nurses.
So it's a wide open field, of
course, for any young woman
with any sort of talent for the
profession.
7 Schools
The Department of Hospitals
operates seven schoo! of nurs-
ing: Bellevue schools for men
and women, Cumberland, Ford-
ham, Kings County, Harlem and
Metropolitan,
Unprecedented opportunities are
being offered for theoretical and
clinical instruction in the science
and art of nursing. ‘The length
of the course is three years and
students live in the Nurses’ Resi-
dences of the hospitals, receiving
@ cash allowance of $20 a month
at the beginning of the fourth or
fifth month following admission,
Graduate nurses who accept em-
ployment in City hospitals “start
at $900 per annum, with mainte-
nance, and $1,260 per annum
without maintenance, There are
increments, promotional oppor-
tunities, pension rights and sicic
leave as well as vacation privi-
leges.
Requirements
Applicants to nursing schools
must he high school graduates, in
good health, be no younger than
18 or older than 30, have citi
ship papers, and reveal a personal
makeup suited for nursing.
‘The first five months of the
three-year course consists largely
of science and the nursing arts
correlated with small periods of
ward practice. At the end of the
first five months, approximately
one hour is devoted to classes and
seven to practical ward work dur-
ing the average day. They are

of hospital work while the grad-

What are the goals of hospital
workers ?
There are two that are para-
mount today, according to em-
ployees queried by LEADER re-
porters,
More wages is the first. Of
the 24,000-odd employees in the
department, fully 55 per cent earn
under $960 a year. Just 17 per
cent earn between $960 and $1,199
a year. Fully 72 per cent earn
under $1,200.
Between 4,000 to 5,000 helpers
receive $70 maximum a month in
their “catch-all” title. Attendants
receive $75 maximum a month and
they are often doing the work of
practical nurses.
Laboratory technical workers
(assistants and technicians) are
not paid in accordance with their
skill. Just $960 as starting salary
and $1,500 for the bulk in this
classification are meager wages
compared to the Federal $1,600
offer with which to start.
Nurses get $105 a month, $1,260
a year. They merit, according to
roblem Troubling Hospital
Workers Is Their Low Wages
current standards, a $1,500 tnini-
mum, especially since they are so
vitally needed today.
What many hospital workers
basically feel they ought to
have is just this: nothing less
than a $1,200 minimum, especially
in these days of high living costs.
Problem number two in magni-
tude is that of employee relations,
‘The failure of a number of units
of the Department of Hospitals to
recognize employees’ grievances

than one person at a time is a

There Certainly Is Merritt
One of the amazing stories
Francis Walsh likes to tell when
he goes to his bachelor quarters
at 349 Bast 53rd Street, Manhat-
tan, is that, in order to pass the
Civil Service Commission's exam-
ination, he had to lift a 25-pound
dumbbell up high with the once
doomed hand,
“To coin a pun,” laughs Mr,
Walsh, “‘all I can ‘say is that
there certainly is Merritt in those
occupational therapy treatments.”

Hospitals has Miss Mary Merritt,

‘The Duties
The nurses’ aides assist nurses
in making beds, giving baths,
in morning and evening
They also aid in serving meals
and performing other duties which
contribute to the welfare of the
patient.
Volunteer nurses’ aides fi
take a regular Red Cross course
(35 hours). Then come 45 hours
of work under supervisor's in hos
pital wards.
The clerical worker receives de
partmental orientation and
cific training in the ho:
where he is to be assigned.
Upon completion of the
rudie
mentary training, volunteer work
ers are required to contribute at
least eight hours a week as clin:
ical clerks and 150 hours a yeat
as nurses’ aides,
‘The volunteer's work in wards
and clinies can be of inestimable
value in the war effort, beca
it enables many nurses to be 1

Our Hospitals Will
They call it the Emergency
Medical Division and it’s one of
the most important portions of
the war effort from the stand-
point of Hospital Department em-
ployees.
Throughout the city there’s a
yast network of control districts
and field units where volunteers
and regular hospital workers are
ready to generate themselves into
action at the sound of an alert.
New York will not be bombed
without the most efficient servica
the Hospital Department and its
auxiliaries know how to furnish,
Here, in short, is the setup:
1, All of the City’s great mu-
nicipal hospitals,*a large number
of voluntary and some proprietary
nospitals are ready to offer their
services.
2, There are 12 district control
hospitals, nerve centers of the
whole operation. When casualties
ave reported, these control centers,
such as the one at Bellevue, dis-
pateh teams of the emergency di-
vision field units scattered
through 85 hospitals, to the area
of the emergency.
3, The hospital nearest the emer-
gency gets the call, of course, for
emergency service, For instance,
if a bombing were to occur near
City Hall, Beekman would be sum-
moned,
4, The field units consist of
squads, varying in number in ac-
cordance with the size of the in-
dividual hospital.
5. Squads consist of internes,
ents, graduate nurses, yelun-
teer nurses’ aides and attendants
all skilled in emergency treat-
ments.
Casualty Stations
6. There are casualty stations
throughout the City, such as in
churches, parochial schools, syna-
gogues, large apartment build-
ings, insurance and mercantile
buildings.
7. There are, in addition, labor-
atory workers, technicians and
pathologists taking care of the
blood plasma setup.
8, Mortuary employees are also
on the job, if needed.

Here, Please!
From the men in white who
practice surgery with a scalpel
and save lives every day by one-
tenth of an inch to those other
men in white, the attendants,
New York’s Department of Hos-
pitals swarms with some 24,000
employees—a city in itself, spread
out over many and varied institu-
tions.
Here are more employees at
work daily than in any other City
department, men and women per-
forming invaluable service in
peace time and especially vital
chores in these days of strife.
Here are more employees at
work daily than in any other city
department, men.and women per-
forming invaluable service in

chores in these days of strife.
Headed by Dr. Edward M. Ber-
necker, a big, bulky man, fitting-
ly at the head of a big, bulky de-
partment, the Hospitals network
ranges from the pathological lab-
oratorics at 125 Worth Street,
Manhattan, site of the adminis-
trative offices, to the Welfare
Island Hospital, out there on
water-surrounded territory.
Many Types of Empioyees.
Physicians, internes, laboratory
technicians, nurses, attendants,
helpers, occupational therapists,
dietitians and many others—they
all make up this vast panorama,
this essential service.
Some of the finest physicians
and internes in the world can be
found in New York's Department
of Hospitals, some on the City
payroll, others volunteering their
services,
‘There are graduate, student and
practical nurses forming the bat-
tery for the men who administer
treatment. Clad in immaculate
white uniforms and caps, topped
off by the inevitable hairnet that
is a compulsory part of their out-
fit, these nurses perform every-
thing from the scientific to the
menial,
Just as the doctor, the nurse
today is compelled to do more
than her share, for war has rid-
dled the ranks of all of the Hos-
pital Department workers. In-
deed, they are sometimes being
compelled to double their duties
because of the shortage.
The graduate nurse generally
specializes in the scientific appli-
cation of the work, The practi-
cal nurse is more of an attendant
than anything else. It is she who
is the buffer for the rigors of a
patient. The student nurse, of
course, gets some of hoth.
Mostly Attendants, Helpers.
The bulk of the employees con-
sists of attendants and helper:
men and women engaged in ev-
erything from the making of pa-
tients’ beds to the cleanliness of
the hospital wards that forms so
much a part of the typical hos-
pital atmosphere,
‘There are the people who work
in the laboratories, testing and
formulating methods for the com-
fort of thousands,
And there are the employees
who have that most interesting
of jobs — occupational therapy,
helping to heal a patient’s woun
by taking his mind off his injury.
Though the colorful days of in-
ternes climbing upon the backs
of ambulances is temporarily
gone, the Hospital Department is
still one of the most colorful of
any in the City,
Hospital Workers
Help Win the War
On January 20 the Department
of Hospitals started its gigantic
drive to aid the war effort
through the purchase of bonds
and stamps.
The first few months produced
only fair results. Then came May
27—and the avalanche.
Each institution was asked to
appoint one of its own deputy su-
Perintendents to represent it in
sale of the precious war commodl-
ties, and, in addition, speakers
from the U. S, Treasury Depart-
ment began to frequent the build-
ings. What's more, posters adver-
tising the bond and stamp drive
were placed in strategic locations.
To top all of this, each month
mimeograph listings of the pro-
gress of the drive, mentioning in-
stitutions by name and their
pledges and sales, are being
placed in conspicuous bulletin
board positions,
You can be sure that it is em-
barrassing for an institution to
fall behind when others are rac-
ing ahead at a wild pace.
Terrific Pace
So terrific has been that pace,
in fact, that Kings County, with
3,100 employees (largest in the de-
partment), smashed all records
during September by selling $25,-
941 in bonds and stamps through
and to employees, This, in com-
parison to an August total of
$6,497.
Take Bellevue, if you need
another instance of the step-up of
the drive: August, $7,446; Sep-
tember, $18,761.
Alexander Matthaey, auditor of
the department, has been guiding
the campaign from headquarters,
preparing studies and graphs
showing the progress of the drive.
It has been his collection of sta-
tistics that has helped spur the
movement.
Cold figures sometimes can
say so much,
So can small rgures. To wit:
the Morgue, smallest of the insti
tution participating in the drive,
and which had 30 employees, has
pledged itself 100 per cent behind
the effort (the only such percent-
age).
Following is a complete listing
of the drive, by institutions,
through August and September.

City Can't
Get Doctors
‘When there's a shortage and
the possibility of obtaining re-
placements exists, slight as it may
be, there isn't too much worry,
In the case of the dearth of
physicians and internes in the De-
partment of Hospitals, however,
the shortage, frankly, is distress-
ing. |
Dr. Adam Eberle, General Medi- |
cal Superintendent of the depart-
ment, admits the “problem is
a serious one,” that the “short- |
age is pretty bad.”
You can get an attendant to
take over some of the duties of a |
nurse; you can also get a volun-|
teer nurse’s alde to do just that.
But you can’t very well get some-
body to take over the duties of ;
® doctor, many of whom have |
gone or are going into the armed
forces. " |

Its Own Heroes and Heroines
On July 29, 1941, the maniacal
husband of a cook in the Depart-
ment ‘of Hospitals entered the
kitchen of one of the city’s insti-
tutions and whipped out at his
wife with a long, open razor.
He slashed off half her face,
causing blood to cascade down her
side, Then he started recklessly
* around the room. Men didn't dare
approach him.
Suddenly, up walked a calm,
courageous lady. It was Miss
Anna M, Samele, housekeeper in
the Triboro Hospital. She came
within a foot of the furious
man and then, without a quiver,
removed the razor from his hand,
Recommended for Heroism
“Coolness and courage is an
emergency probably resulting in
the saving of a number of lives"
is the way they have termed it at
the Departmental Rating Board,
whose chairman is Eugene R.
Canudo, Hospital Department sec-
retary.
Miss Samele is one of those thes
Board has recommended for an
upward rating because of heroism,
Another in thig, category is Mi-
chael J. Gallagher, auto engine-
man in the department, who on
September 12, was one of
the drivers ‘of hearses taking
bodies in the direction of the East
River at 16th Street, Manhat-
tan, on the way from the city
morgue to burial across the river,
While unloading the bodies, a
deckhand slipped and fell into the
river between the boat and the
dock,
Mr. Gallagher, at the risk of los-
ing,his own life, plunged into the
water and dragged the unfortu-
nate man to safety. Later on,
dripping wet, he went back to his
department,
When questioned, he merely
sald: ‘Oh, I just jumped in the
water looking for a fellow.”
There are plenty of such cases
of heroism in the Department of
Hospitals. We'll tell you about
more of them in future issues,

theory and six months of prac-
tical work spent in City or pr
vate institutions. The practical
nurse finishes her course by tak-
ing a licensed State exam.
Presently there are 63 vacancies
in this field in the City’s hos-
pitals. To become a practical
nurse, you need a grammar school
education, good health, good mor-
al character, citizenship and must
be not less than 18 or more than
50 in age.
Nurses throughout the City’s
hospitals have single or double
rooms (the latter is shared by two
nurses) as well as study and rec-
reational halls (containing radio,
books and writing desks), and a
large living room where any nurse
may entertain guests. Virtually
all institutions have what is
known as a Nurses’ Residence
where these activities and quar-
ters are centered. Most institu-
tions also provide swimming pool

maining in the department," ex-
plains Canudo.

ply as well as the civil service

Graduate nurses are clad in
white uniforms, white shoes and
stockings and the cap they car-
ried away from graduating school.
A student nurse's outfit varies—
from black shoes and stockings to
brown or white, either blue uni-
forms with white stripes or pink
uniforms with white stripes, or a
blue checkered uniform. Prac-
tical nurses are clad as attend-
ants,
All nurses are required to wear
hairnets and caps at all time. In-
cidentally, they buy their own unt-
forms,
And here's something special for
the student nurse: while learning
she enjoys many extra recrea-
tional activities such as sight-sec-

opera, theaters, restaurants, mu-

POSTAL NEWS
By DONALD McDOUGAL
Ambition
It isn't enough that the Senate
Civil Service Committee is expec-
ted to report out an amended
overtime pay bill this week af-
fecting the postal boys. Emanuel
Kushelewitz, president of Branch
36, National Association of Letter
Carriers; Emil Hague, vice presi-
dent, and Max Mansfield, secre-
tary, have proceeded to Washing-
ton, D, C,, to move officials just
in case they have no intention of
moving.
If you want an ambitious pro-
gram, just listen to this: they
mapped out a plan to see no less
than officials of the War Labor
Board, the Economie Stabilization
Board and President Roosevelt
himself. The probabilities are, of
course, they will not get to sce all
the people they want. But this is
important: they've determined
upon face-to-face action. » That
shows how serious this pay raise
situation for the postal boys is be-
coming.
Maybe that's the way the vet-
erans’ march on Washington in
that bonus scandal began a num-
ber of years ago, You never can
tell but the postal boys may be
rushing to the capitol in great
groups one of these nights if ac-
tion continues to be lacking.
‘The post office fellows haven't
had a raise in 17 years and the
men are desperate, Personally, I
don’t envy the officials they man-
age to catch.
Meanwhile
In the meantime the public is
still being rallied to the support
of the men in gray seeking a way
to meet the soaring cost of living.
Posters and personal pleas
through the mail are keeping the
campaign at a boiling point.
Re Substitutes
This week another phase of the
drive to obtain open hearings on
HR, 7404 was entered into by the
Substitute Committee of Local 10,
Federation of Post Office Clerks,
‘The group has arranged for sub.
stitutes to address local unions to

and interesting story of Russia's
ski troops, The plot has to deal
with three soldiers who are sent
cut to follow the trail of a tele-
phone wire and are trapped in the
attic of a farmhouse which the
Nazis decide to use as their head-
quarters. The sequences dealing
with the attempts of the Rus-
sians to get their report through
to their superior officers are full
of suspense and a breathless audi-
ence finds itself wishing there
Was some way it could help.
The acting is superb throughout
and the photography of the
scenes in the snow especially ef-
fective. For the first time in a
Russian picture, English dialogue
hus been cleverly dubbed in in-
stead of the usual subtitles, G.B.
