NYC Fell Down on Withholding Tax Forms —

Bult New York City employees
) Must be a special type of citizen
because some of them got their
information—which ts needed to
make up the income tax reports,
a5 late as March 10, That gave
‘hem exactly five days in which
~to solve the form 1040 purzie and
figure out whether they owe Uncle
Sam or he owes them and how
much.
Tale of Woe
The City Comptroller’s office
had the responsibility of getting
the little slips of paper out, and
«the story they tell is a long tale
of woe,

To begin with, the Comptroiler’s
Office is plastered with signs, one
on every door; “For any informa-
tion about withholding tax, see
your department payroll clerk.”
‘They had plenty of City employees
haunting them before the signs
“went up.

Point 1. “That January 31 date
was impossible for us to meet,”

——

said a spokesman fot the Comp-
troller's Offic “We don't even
get the payroll sheets back from
the departments until January 24,
It’s absolutely impossible to figure
out the total tex deductions and
put them down in 7 days.”

Now the City has approximately
190,000 employees. The figure
changes from day to day, But to
determine the tax deductions, over
220,000 different accounts had to
be figured. That's how many peo-
ple came in and went of the City
service during the year.

‘Trouble, Trouble

Point 2. The troubles that the
Comptroller's office ran into came
so fast and furious that at times it
was funny, At the very beginning,
the Fed'l Government sent in the
slips which had to be made out
in triplicate. One copy to the em-
ployee, one to Federal Govern-
ment, one to the Department pay-
roll office,

First, the forms the Govern-
ment sent In didn’t fit the mia-
chines that the City had. New ma-
chines couldn't be bought because
of priorities. “Please let us use
other forms” begged the Comp-
troller.

“No," sald Uncle Sam.

Finally after long” conferences
with the business machine com-
panies, a machine was rigged up
which could put the information
on the slips.

Then more trouble, The ma-
chines could enter all the neces-
sary information, but not the em-
Ployees address. The Govern-
ment wanted that fact, So after
each stip was made out by ma-
chine, the extra dope had to be
typed on Jt.

Then, it was found that there
weren't enough people in the of-
fice who could work the machines,
so they had to hire a crew from
outside,

Still later, it was necessary to
add on the slip whether the em-

ployees’ wives or husbands were
working. More headaches.
All of a sudden, the man in

charge of the whole business col-

‘So Some Civil Servants Won't File in Time

By FRANCIS KELLY
The Federal Income Tax law provides that by Jan-
wary 31 of each year, every employee must receive from
his employer a statement of his earnings for the preceding
Syear, and how much was withheld for taxes,

lapsed and_went to the hospital.
‘That threw more monkey wrenches
into the works.
Most Out By March 6

Despite everything, by March 6
each City employees” little slip of
paper was out of the Comptroller's
Office except for about 3,000 in the
Board of Education, These, on
spectal payrolls were the last to
get out and they should have had
their formas justjf-time to make
& quick stab at ‘figuring their
status with the tax collectors,

The Comptroller's office staff
think they've done a good job des-
pite all their difficulties which be-
set them, and they point out that
99 percent of the City employees
had at least five days in which to
make out thelr returns, Some of
the Comptroller's staff say they've
been too busy to even think about
their taxes,

Seek Extension

Meanwhile, City employees tre-
port they cannot meet the March
15 deadline. Some Commissioners
have been in touch with Internal
Revenue to get an extension of
time for their employees,

In a decision refuting the state-
Ment frequently made that "Ped-
‘eral employees have no rights,"
Stanley H. Borak, New York at-
torney, was upheld by the United
States Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia in his con-
tention that he had been Illegally
Removed from his Federal civil
Bervice position in the Department
Pf Justice. ‘The case was decided
on March 6, 1944.

Mr, Borak, who lost his job on
January 3, 1942, a3 a Naturaliza-
Gon Examiner in the New York
Office of the Immigration
Naturalization Service,
his own attorney,

acted as
The complaint

asked reinstatement to the job,
and other relief,

Declaring that the District Court
was “wrong” in dismissing the
appellant's complaint, the Wash-
ington Court, composed of Chief
Justice D. Lawrence Groner, and
Associate Justices Henry W, Ed-
gerton and Thurman W, Arnoid,
held that as a permanent em-
ployee, Mr. Borak was entitled
under the law, to the preference
of written charges and @ hearing
“as a condition of removal.”

Mr, Borak, who argued the ap-
peal on his own behalf, had at-
tacked his summary removal with-

ioe, as illegal, and without justifi-
cation, .

Probationary Period

The Attorney-General contended
that the summary dismissal was
legal, because Borak was a “pro-
tational” employee, and .main-
tained that he had not completed
a one-year period of probation,
However, the Court said, “But ap-
pellant protests, and we think
rightly, the premise on which this
conclusion rests," *

The Court declared invalid a
“minute” of the U. 8. Civil Service
Commission, by which the six
months period of probation estab-
Ushed by Executive Order of the
President, was extended to one
year. The invalidity was predi-
cated upon the failure to comply
with the provisions of the Federal
Register Act requiring publication
of the “minute.” Under the clr-
cumstances, the Court ruled that
Mr, Borak had completed the

U.S. EMPLOYEE FIRED, REINSTATED BY COURTS
Courts Reveal New Path to Employee Security

WASHINGTON—In a case of tremendous importance
to every Federal employee, a dismissed employee was last
\ week ordered reinstated to his job by the courts, The case
sets a precedent which is of enormous consequence, for it
now makes it possible for a U. 8S. civil service employee to
ask that the courts protect him if he believes his essential
right to his job has been violated,

torney General, as defendant, It

come ® permanent employee, and
was thereby entitled to the pro-
tection of the statute,

‘The court dismissed the argu-
ment of the Attorney-General
that a certificate had to be filed
at the end of the period of proba-
tion, and that unless and until
such a certificate was filed, the
Probationary period was nol com-

ted. The court said that under
the foregoing argument of the At-
torney-General, the period of pro-
bation could be extended for § or
10 years at the whim of the
appointing officer, by his failing
or neglecting to file the required
certificate, This, the court con-
cluded, was not the intent of the
Rule of Civil Service Involved.

Tt wus also ruled that the Dis-
trict Court had no jurisdiction of
the claim for salary since the un-
lawful ouster,

3 GIRLS FIRED
IN AFTERMATH
OF HARVEY CASE

ALBANY—Two expert typists
and one junior stenographer, all
provisionals but with ten months
to three years servicé each, have
received notice they are through
in the State Division of Commerce,
it was reported this week,

‘The shake-up allegedly is an out~+
growth of the case of Helen Har-
vey whose ouster aa chief stenog-
rapher by Commissioner M, P,
Catherwood was last week over-
Tuled by Supreme Court Justice
Corgan. The court referred to the

Catherwood charges against Mrs, *

Harvey as “multiplied trivia,”

A possible shake-up in the div-
ision was seen as a result of the
newest reported lay-offs, All three
typists who got their notices are
reported to have been friends of
Mrs. Harvey when she was head
of the Commerce Division's steno-
graphic pool,

Names of those reported to have
been laid off ure: Nora Red-
mond, 21 months in service; Alice
Wiley, 10 months in service; and
Isabel Pox, three years in service.
Colleagues of the three dismissed
employees are reported as ine
censed at what they consider an
arbitrary and unjust action.

Dated Mar, 1, Delivered Mar, 3

Lay-off notices, signed by the
division executive, were dated
March 1 but were not delivered to
the employees until March 3, and
then by messenger. The delivery
date also coincided with the pub-
lished reports of Mrs, Harvey's re-
instatement by court order, In-
terestingly, there is messenger
service available every hour in the
office, ' '

All three typists are reported by
their associates to be experts, No
complaint about thelr work was
voleed anywhere. Since all three
are provisionals, however, they
may be dropped legally and with-
out recourse, under civil service
law. While they wouldn't com-
ment, none of the three is worry-
ing about » job.

Harvey Still Waiting

Meanwhile, Mf's, Harvey has not
yet been reinstated to her job,
Catherwood has 30 days from the
effective date of the court order
in which to appeal, At press-time
it had not been indicated whether
he would go to the higher courts,
If Mrs. Harvey is reinstated, she
can go either to her former poal«
tion as head of the stenographic
pool, or to another post within the
Commerce Division of equal rank
and pay.

‘The Ramspeck Committee, in its

—That in December it had a
backlog of 143,385 unpaid refund

Navy Says White-Collar Employees
May Leave Out One Pay

WASHINGTON—As forecast in The LEADER, Navy
Department has capitulated—and finally issued a state-
ment to employees on the matter of their mixed-up in-

come tax problem,

The statement came from Secretary Frank Knox

himseif.

Tt told employees that they
didn't have to rely on the Navy's
1943 earnings statements in pre-
paring their March 15 tax returns.
Instead, if they wish, they can
base returns on an alternate sys-
tem—which actually will save
them money,

As reported in The LEADER
previously, Navy gave 175,000
white collar workers—those paid
semi-monthly — 1943 earnings’
statements which were incorrect,
and quite possibly illegal.

Employees were credited with
one 1944 payday—that of January
5 for field workers, Its effect was
to charge them with extra income,

which, in turn, would have meant
extra taxes,
The Letter

Mr. Knox's letter,
the weekend, sald:

“1, Navy Department employees
may pay their income tax on the
basis of the figures already fur-
nished, or

“2, They may deduct the am-
ount of theif gross earnings (e.
&., base pay plus overtime) for the
pay period of Dec. 16 to 31, 1943,

"The payday for that period was
the one which was incorrectly in-
cluded in the earnings statements,

Save $20.

And employees who do not in-
clude it on their March 15 tax
return will find they will save an

The Commission sald the pres-
ent periods of waiting “are not
consistent with the fact that dif-
ferences in performing are shown
in a much shorter time among
new employees of varying abilities
and experience who enter duty at
the same time and the same mini-
mum rate.”

they range from $5 to $8.33 per

above that level.

Bad News For
U.S. Employees

WASHINGTON — Sen. McKel-
lar's plan to require Senate con-
firmation of all Government work~-
ers making $4,500 or more again
has become a hot subject in Con-
gress.

This plan threatens the very
roots of the merit system in Gov-
ernment. It would establish a pat-
tern of spoils and patronage as &
substitute for the tried and true
pope of the best man for the

Sen, McKellar's bill passed the
Senate Iast summer, but subse-
quently was buried in the House.
Now, however it has been revived
in new form,

Last week the Senate Appro-~
priations Committee reported out
the Independent Offices bill, And
into it, Sen. McKellar (as acting
chairman) had written again his
confirmation clause,

To Whom It Would Apply

1—It would apply to Federal
employees already on the payroll,

2—It would apply to newcomers
as they entered the service,

3—It might even extend down
to workers entering Government
@t $3,800, because that is the be-
ginning salary of the pay bracket
in which $4,500 falls,

Not only that—but Congression~
al leaders are honestly fearful
that the McKellar bill now stands

for Tax

average of about $20—with « very
good chance that this will become
a “permanent” saving.

If you are a Navy per-annum
ne here is what you should
flo: ’
1, Take your 1943 earnings
statement as given you by Navy.

2. Subtract the sum of: (a)
your January 6, 1944 paycheck;
(b) your withholding tax for that
payday; (c) your War Bond de-
duction; (d) your Federal retire-
ment deduction.

3. Submit the remainder to In-
ternal Revenue as your income for
1943, x

4. Report your withholding tax,
exactly as reported to you on your
Navy earnings statement,

5. Inclose Secretary Knox letter
and/or this article as an explana-
tion of what you have done—and
of why your income figures don't
tally with those submitted to In-
ternal Revenue by Navy.

The Reduction in State Ald Must Be Restored
No Local Cut Can Be Allowed to Cripple Our Schools!

Despite the report of State Budget Director Burton, the
State is not giving its fair share of the money needed to educate
our children, The people of New York City must emphatically
demand more money from the State to support its schools,

The City school system is at war—at war with Germany
and Japan and at war with juvenile delinquency. As part of
its war it gives pre-induction courses in skills that may mean
American lives when our lads face enemy fire.

As part of its war against juvenile delinquency we must
reduce classes to permit individual attention to pupil needs, it
must expand its guidance and recreational services to solve the
problems of soldiers’ children and war workers’ children and to
keep them off the streets.

These services cost money. They cannot be supported if
the State reduces its contribution for Education by over $4,000,+
000, as will be the case if supplementary funds are noe voted by
the Legislature and approved by the Governor,

__ "They cannot be supported if Mayor La Guardia reduces the
City's contribution for education, as has been threatened.

When he announced the details
of the receht cost-of-living bonus,

eases where employees had_re-
celved any increases since July,

ing bonus—‘Except in exceptional

Inless whole departments are
“exceptional cases,” then City em-
ployees are probably justified in
& most serious complaint against
this situation:
The City Law Department, in
September 1943, granted increases
to 102 employees, These
ranged from $120 to $1,600. Then
along came the January 1944 bo-
hus, and 89 of those who had re-
ceived the increases—those who
had been boosted by $500 or less
—recelved the full bonus,

In Public Works, 213 employees
received increases of $120 t $300
during the preceding six months.
However, when the bonus came
along, they too received the full
additional payment,

Council and forwarded to the
State Legislature for concurrence
The resolution, proposed by
Councilman Edward Vogel, Brook-
lyn Democrat, allows the transfer
of funds from “any sound retire-
ment system” to the City Retire-
ment System, an arrangement
similar to the provisions covering
transfer of mebership to the N. ¥,
State Employees Retirement Sys-
7,
The “any sound retirement sys-
tem” proviso, according to Coun-
climan Vogel, allows. the transfer
from the Board of Education Re-
tirement System to the City ays-
tem. .
The proviso dealing with the
Tunnel Authority Employees,
states:
“A member of the State System
who was an employee of any city
agency at the time service with
such agency was legislated to be
jeltx servicey may transfer his
Mmembership to the city system,”

departments against those

who work for other City agencies,

work a little longer each week.”
Positions dropped
Among those positions dropped
by Public, Works were engineers,
cleaners, elevator operators, and
auto enginemen. The extra work
Schedule amounted to 4 hours
more each week. Among those
who had to work longer were some
employees on three shifts, This
Tesulted in two people finding
themselves working together on
one person's job for 4 hours,
No Bonuses for Merit
Other departments however,

talses | Tigidly followed the Mayor's order,

and those who had received any
increases—except mandatory In-
crements—found thelr boost sub-
tracted from their bonus,

In Parks, however, Commission-
er Robert Moses had requested
that his employees who had been
raised receive the full bonus. But,
when the Budget bureau got
through pruning his budget re-
quest, his employees made out the
same as the majority of other City
workers,

It is reported that Moses had a
stormy session with Budget Di-
rector Joseph Patterson, but came
out second in the argument,

Inequalities Revealed in NYC Budget;

Your Pay Depends on Where You Work

Exclusive

Continuing its analysis of the proposed New York
Budget for 1944-45 which began in last week's issue, The
LEADER has found apparent inequalities: which seem

course of providing bonuses to
employees who had previously re- ©
ceived merit raises. This is proper,
‘There is serious objection, how-
ever, voleed among oO} “ip
the know,” with regard to the dis-
crimination practiced against em
ployees of other departments,

Is 1 Megalt

Some City employees have
looked into the whole bonus situn~
tion, and they feel that it was
handled iMegally from the very
beginning.

‘The “Terms and Conditions” of
the City Budget, which have pow-
er of law, provide that budget
modifications must haye the a
broval of the Board of Estimate.
Board members never had a
chance to vote on the bonus, It
was announced in the form of an
order by the Mayor,

The Borough Presidents, who
are members of the Estimate
Board, had often indicated their
@pproval of a cost-of-living
to employees, but had, stat
more liberal terms than
Mayor's bequest which amounts
to about an 8 percent increase,

Next step in preparation of the
City Budget is the Mayor's annual
Budget Retreat, He locks himself
in the Budget Bureau offices and
seans the proposed City expendi-
t res for the fiscal year from July
1, 1944 to June 30, 1945, By law
he is required to submit his ap-
proved budget to the Board of Es-
timate on or before April 1 of each

far

‘There is no objection to the

ployees, That is the day on

planation of the
LEADER by Mr, Frey:

In the Hight of many forth-
coming popular examinations for
promotion, considerable interest
has been raised concerning the
topic of service ratings. Specifi-
cally most employees are inter-
ested In knowing just exactly the
manner in which service ratings
are employed in connection with
Promotion Examinations.

Under the rules of the Civil
Service Commission, departments
are required to submit reports on
the work and conduct of all per-
manent competitive employees ex-
cepting the uniformed forces of
the Police and Fire Departments
once every year on March 31,
These reports are reviewed by
a Board of Examiners in the
Civil’ Service Commission and
numerical ratings are assigned,
The rating for satisfactory serv-
ice is 1% a year, Under present
regulations, however, the ratings
may range from Plus 6% to
Minus 6% depending upon the
nature of the services reported,
The extreme ratings are very
rarely if ever utilized.

How It's Computed

‘The mark of Record and Seni-
ority In a promotion examination
is computed as follows:

Starting with a basic rating of
70% there shall be added or sub-
tracted all service ratings received
while the employee was in con-
tinuous service in an eligible title
or titles up to and including the
last completed rating period im-
mediately preceding the first part
of the mental examination; but
in no case shall more than 16
years in an eligible title be con-
sidered in computing the rating
for record and seniority, and
these years shall be the 15 im-
mediately preceding the examina-
ton,

In computing the rating for
record and seniority, credit shall
also be given for continuous serv~
ice in an eligible title in the Ia-
bor class. The rating of service
in the Iabor class shall be gov-
erned in the case of each exam~-
ination by such requirements as
the Commission on the recom-
mendation of the Examining Di-
vision shall establish, The stand~
ard rating for satisfactory service
is 4y% for each full six months’
service in the Iahor glass,

year.

March 31 Is a Fateful Day
For NYC Employees

March 81 is a fateful day for New York City Em-

which their supervisors turn

in a report on their work for the past year.

The man who knows all the ins and outs of service
ratings is Thomas Frey, head of the Municipal Civil Serv-
ice Commission's Service Rating Bureau. Here is an ex-
whole business prepared for THE

tained by the method indicated
above, a seniority increment shall
be added to the service ratings In
all examinations held subsequent
to November 15, 1939,

Computing the Increment

‘The increment is computed in
the following manner;

For each year of active and
continuous service in the labor
and competitive classes of the
Municipal Civil Service prior to
the date of the first part of the
mental examination, one-half
point shall be added to the sery-
ice rating, A residual fractional
period of nine months or more
shall be considered as one year,
A residual fraction of from three
to nine months shall be con-
sidered as a half year and 4%
shall be added for this period.
The seniority increment shall in
No case exceed 5%,

In no case may the mark in
Record and Seniority exceed
100%.

‘Under no circumstances shall
service rating credit be given for
service in the non-competitive
class. Non-competitive employees «
shall recelve a record and seni-

| ority rating of 70% in any pro-

motion examination to which they
may be admitted.

Tn computing the rating for
record and seniority, service rat-
ings received prior to a contin-
uous separation from the per-
manent service for more than
one year shall not be credited,

It Is to be noted that the Civil
Service Commission no longer
grants additional Service Rating
Credit for completed courses of
study,

For a few years the Commission
experimented with the idea of
Granting additional credit for
completed courses of study in
connection with promotional ex-
ama.

In the light of the experience
gained, however, it altered its
polioy and determined that sery-
joe ratings thereafter should be
confined solely to an employee's
performance in the course of his
regular city employment, and dis-
continued the practice of con-
aidering completed courses of
study except in those examina-
tlons where experience, education
and perscnal qualifications con-

all that truculence?

Firemen Getting Together
To Fight Out-of-Title Jobs

Firemen in New York City are holding down jobs as
pilots and marine engineers, at firemen’s pay, even though

eligible lists exist for the other two titles.

In other words,

out-of-title work is a common practice in the Fire Depart-
ment, and as much was admitted to The LEADER. The
practice is clearly illegal, and the only reason for it is to
save money—at the expense of the men who are doing $3400

and $8500 work for $3000 a year.

The main facts of this

situation, revealed by The LEADER last week, brought forth
a flood of comments from men in the Fire Department.

Here's one of them:

“Mm your statement regarding
the need for eight more engineers
there is a slight discrepancy in
the number of actual vacancies
which would have to be cleared
up through the Office of the Pire
Commissioner or through the Of-
fice of the Chief in Charge of the
boats.

During the regime of the then
Axssistant Chief O'Hanlon a num-
ber of engineers of steamers were
being used as marine engineers.
O'Hanlon decided that if these
men wanted to remain on the
boats they would have to procure
the necessary Federal License, In
@ number of cases the licenses
were procured, (those who did not
were transferred to land com-
panies having thawing devices)
However, whenever these “Old
timers” (engineers of steamer
holding Ucenses) died or retired
the quota for marine engineer was
never increased.

“If a more Intensive Investiga-
tion was made into this situation
it would be discovered that there
are about 15 or 16 vacancies for
engineer, We will assume that
there are say, 15 vacancies, three
of which are caused by men in the
Military Service and cannot be
filled. Then of the remaining 12
vacancies, four of them were for-
merly engineers of steamer and
even if the 8 vacancies were filled
there should still be the 4 vacan-
cies caused by engineer of steamer
and 3 more caused by men in the
Military Service, with these men
continuing to work out-of-title
without the additional compensa~
tion.

“The above figures may be out
of the way by only one or two,
but as stated above the exact num-
ber can be ascertained through
the Pire Commissioner’s Office or
from the Chief in Charge of the
boats,

“Nothing whatever will be done
for these men because of the fact
that for each vacancy which is
filled by an acting engineer or
pilot the sum of $400.00 and
$500.00 is saved and used for some-
thing else. Some of these men
have been acting in these two
ranks for as much as a year and
longer,

“Now, in reference to the last
paragraph of your article; Of the
remaining thirty-one men of the
eligible list for marine engineer I
doubt if as many as five would be
fool enough to stick out their
necks to send complaints to the
Civil Service Commission, It is
the opinion of many of these men
that the Uniformed Pilots and
Marine Engineers Association (of
which they are potential members)
should go to bat for them to the
Civil Service Commission,”
Getting Together

The LEADER learns that a
movement is already under way
among the men concerned to get
together and approach the Civil
Service Commission as a unit in
order to protest the situation most
effectively.

Under the Jaw, the Civil Service
Commission can take the effective
action of stopping the payroll.
Whether or not the Commission
would actually take such action,
remaing to be seen, although the
agency's secretary, William Mur-
ray, last week stated that in his
view the Commission would act
with determination if the facts
were brought to ita attention by
the men actually involved.

Prom another source, it has
been learned that top officials in
the Pire Department are them-
selves not too happy about the
situation, It’s no gravy in their
situation that men work out-of-
title, They'd just as lef have
them taken from the proper ¢li-
gible lists, However, the inside
story says that the Budget Direc-
tor—-or more properly the Mayor

Sick Leave Rule
Under Revision

The State assembly last week
passed Lig mae i. con deta
troduced by Assemblyman Pa
Lamula (Republican ist
New York) to amend the ra)
transit law so as to permit the
accrual of sick leave at the rate
of 12 days per year for a period of
five years and a total of 60
instead of limiting accumul
sick leave to 12 days per year for
two years. .

“Under the law now,” said
Assemblyman Lamula, “if a
sit employee does not use his
leave period within two years, he
is deprived of this right. Such a
system places a premium on lying,
since most employees who may
not be ill during the two-year,
period feel that that is the only
way to obtain time off that they
are entitled to rightfully,” “This
change,” continued Assemblyman
Lamula, “will tend to regularize
working attendance, reduce fake
absences, and accumulate a long
period for illness, so that if #
transit employee is seriously ill, *
he can fall back on this accuntu-
lated period.”

MEMBER AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS

- Memo fo Legislators
And the Governor

TATE employees are disturbed. Among those citizens
a S who have regard for civil service and the merit system
—and who know what is going on in Albany—there is

frank alarm.

A dangerous mofif is apparent in what has been
happening. A number of bills are being introduced in the
. Closing days of the legislative session, too late for serious con-
sideration or amendment, which can mean the ultimate tear-

¥ ing apart of the fundamental principles of civil service.

Tnvoad Into Merit Principle

Two of these measures authorize the Superintendent of
» Public Works to make private contracts with engineers and
consultants to “prepare designs,” render “assistance and
advice,” and to perform “such other services as the Superin-
tendent may deem necessary.” The Superintendent gets the
_ power in his discretion to liquidate the entire civil service
}statf if he so pleases—and have his work done through em-
ployees chosen without regard for civil service. Who among
the legislators is ready to say that the Superintendent should
be given such absolute power? Who among them is ready to
allow this opening chasm in the civil service system? Who
among them is willing to heap this burden of insecurity upon
b the State’s employees? Is the Governor prepared to sanction
such an inroad into the merit principle?

e A Promotion That Isn’t

t Still another.measure before the Legisiature cancels
» out the salary increment which has heretofore been paid when
| 40 employee is promoted to a position in an overlapping
grade, The savings achieved by this bill—if economy is its
purpose—would be negligible. The bill does violence to career
service by killing this tiny salary incentive for promotion,
and by requiring that promoted employees work at the same
' salary as those who have not been promoted. Who among
the men in the Legislature is ready to stand up and say this
*is fair procedure? Can the Governor permit it?

And the hopper contains a measure repealing the 8-hour
maximum day and 3-day week now applicable in the cottage
and colony service. Can the Governor, or any legislator, be
so bland as to support this backward step—toward the 12-
hour day and the endless week outlawed by the State in 1936?

Depressed Wages
*

Employees are disturbed, too, by the fact that the Feld-
Hamilton Law, which last year was extended to institution
employees for the ayowed purpose of increasing their in-
~ adequate pay scales, has been administered in such a way that

large numbers of the employees now have no better wage
scales than before—and many positions are even lower-paid!
Reports have emanated from certain of the institutions that
employees have been required to sign waivers of their civil
service rights, The legal requirement that career law rates
of pay had to be effective on October 1, 1943, for employees
fof Matteawan and Dannemora State Hospitals, has been
coldly ignored, The State is procuring the services of these
employees for illegally depressed wages!

The picture adds up. It adds up to a trend against civil
service and merit—a trend which the Governor and the legis-
lators may not have seen in its separate parts, They
should take cognizance of its deeply serious nature, They
must stop the trend whose end can be more dangerous than
they envision.

+B)

One Man Who's Trying

a It’s good to see at least one legislator, Assemblyman
Robert Crews, standing up for civil service employees-—the
NYC cops and firemen-—and actually on the verge of win-
ning his battle to.get.them.better pay. '

yet. Don't be surprised if the

niders, are waiting to see how
many applications come in for
April 1 retirement. Then, a tele.

BEULAH BAILEY THULL,
whose chief delights are cooking
and entertainmg, is prabably the
best-informed woman in the
United States on taxes, tax laws,
and tax intricacies.

After graduating from Cornell
College and the State Library
School, at Columbia University,
she entered State service in 1917
4s an assistant librarian in the Ed-
ucation Department,

Six years later she was State
ax librarian and in that capacity
she established the first tax l-
brary to be guided by a tax li-
brarian, in the United States, She
has had the satisfaction of seeing
the methods of classification and
the use of subject headings that
she then devised, adopted by li-
raries all over the country.

Later she became research as-
sistant to the President of the
State Tax Commission, returned
as research assistant to the Tax
Department, and sitice September
1, 1943 she has been assigned to
the Department of Audit and

Control—where se is I raaientch

3,500 chickens,” she said. “We
have a large flock this year and
to our live stock we have added

The Thulls have pigs, too, and
three dogs and a cat,

POLICE CALLS

That $450 Might Go Through—
But Give It All the Push You Can, Boys!

The long battle made by Assemblyman Robert J. Crews,

Kings County Republican, to bring about a pay increase for
the uniformed police and firemen of New York City may be
realized this week with legislative approval of his bill for

this purpose.

Mr, Crews ts confident that his
bill, adding $450 to the pay of
every member of the police and
fire departments, will be passed
by the Assembly on Tuesday or
Wednesday. It is on third reac:
ing, having suddenly emerged
from Rules Committee where so
many bills die toward the end of
every legislative session,

“T can see no reason why the
bili shouldn't pass,” said Mr,
Crews, “The New York City
Council unanimously voted in
favor of it and has adopted a
formal request for passage of the
measure. This is required under
the Home Rule provisions of the
Constitution,

“Our police and firemen haven't
had a pay raise In 14 years while
living, costs in the last couple of
years alone have increased 38 per
cent, The $450 pay increase
should be given them. Moreover,
the bill provides that before en-
actment of the wage Increase. the
voters of the city would first have
a chance by referendum to pass
on the question,”

He pointed out that 800,000 New
York residents previously had
signed petitions urging legislative
enactment of a pay ralse,

‘The Crews bill, after passage by
the Assembly, would still have to
face the hurdle of the Senate be-
fore going to the Governor fr his
approval or rejection, Opponents
of the bill declare it would coat
the city more than $13,000,000 or
a pum greater than the sum re-
turned to the elty by law from the

utility gross income franchise tax
this year, That's the same argu-
ment they usually use against pay
raises for public employees,

Crews statement, you will note,
failed to mention the $420 bonus
received by New York

Tt will be a great day if that
$450 proposal really goes through
against all the opposition it has
had. It would be smart politics
for the PBA, the UFA, and the
individual members of both or-
ganizations to put on all the heat
they can now, The people of the
City of New York showed they
were for the increase, They'll
stand behind the men now. If
Albany's legislators and the Gov-
ernor see a really determined ef-
fort, the urprise may actually
become fact—and the Crews bill
might be enacted into law,

In so-called “short sessions,” there Is little time for the careful
examination of many proposed laws, Little opportunity is available
for public hearing. Legislation that Is “raw” in more senses than
one is apt to get by.

6, a x6

EVERY SESSION of the Legislature ia characterized by certain
trends. One year there may be a concentration on tax reform; another
year may witness great interest in labor or social justice; often
the primary impulse may be economy, The present Legislature, like
its predecessors, shows certain characteristics on subjects of special
concern, Among these are the changes in departments, the general
overhauling of important consolidated laws, post-war planning bills,
and bills resulting from the work of various investigating commit-
tees. In a word, one of the guiding principles of the present Legisia-
ture seems to be reorganization,

Now, given @ short Legislative session, and given an impulse
to reorganize many aspects of the State Government, it often -hap-
pens that bills are drawn up hastily, without sufficient background
and without ample consideration of their possible consequences, In
many cases, the bills display a lack of knowledge of the whole in-
tegrayed body of laws and regulations which will be affected.

better part of wisdom in rebuilding the fundamental legal
structure of the State is to make haste slowly. Do not remove th:
foundations—at least not until the main structure is jacked up
and a better foundation ts laid.

I propose to examine a few important bills now before the
Legislature in order to point out their implications, limitations, and
probable effects,

ee ee

FARMING OUT ESSENTIAL STATE WORK: Long years of
costly experience are ignored in bills which propose to “farm out"
to private architects and engineers the planning and supervision
of public works construction. The question at issue is not whether

the big construction jobs shall be done by contract. They have been | porary

and will continue to be. The question is whether the State itself,
through its trained and qualified instruments, the employees, shall
draw the plans and supervise the construction. Unless this work js
performed by the State officials themselves, there is no assurance
that a complete and honest job will result, and a dollar’s worth of
building received for every dollar appropriated,
ae {ae

EXEMPT POSITIONS: Exempt positions are those which can
be filled without regard to the civil service laws, without considera-
tion of fitness for the job. Politicians, of course, like exempt jobs,
for these represent possible patronage payments, The old idea of
public office as graft, absenteeism, and loafing was a handmaiden
of the patronage system

There has been an alarming increase in exempt positions under
the new appropriation act and in lump-sum appropriations, Why?
A few policy-forming appointments may properly be exempt, but why
should hundreds of others, which can be filled through competitive
examination, be exempt in defiance of the State's Constitution?

HOURS OF WORK: The war has demanded long hours of work
from most of us. State workers are not exceptions, Where

serious
shortages of help exist, as in the Mental Hygiene hospitals, the| ‘he

remaining emplovees carry the extra load at regular pay and not
time-and-a-half for overtime. The State has limited the hours of
work in private industry—and somewhat tardily and reluctantly in
publis service. No one claims that State employees can in all in-
stances continue to work at the old hour-schedule during the
War emergency. There in, however, no rhyme or reason for breaking
down permanent control of hours in State employment, while main-
taining such control as essential to the worker in private industry.
The Legislature should treat all workers alike.
85 6

VETERAN PREFERENCE: Everyone desires a Job for the re-
turned serviceman; everyone wishes him to have a fair and equal
chance for a career in the public service, It may be necessary to
open some doors to private employment where artificial bars exist,
but is there any reason to set up special privilege where the door
is already wide open—and the only consideration for appointment
is Mtness for the Job? To tamper with civil service Is to break down
essential service to all the people. A fair chance and no favors has
been the American ideal. There Is no evidence that the man in
service asks unfair privilege or job monopoly, Those who assume
to speak for him have thelr own Irons in the fire,

The Governor has suggested the creation of a commission to
study and to plan for full employment of the returned soldier, The
whole matter should be referred to such a commission for consider-
ation as part of the larger problem of full employment for the
returned veteran,

Commission Tells
Of Year's Tasks

‘The sixty-first anual report of}
the New York State Civil Service
Commission, released last week,
presents, In 58 pages, the story of
an agency confronted with more
than the usual manpower head-
aches of @ world at war,

For example, during 1943 there
was a drop from 28,830 to 6,909
in the number of applicants for
open competitive examinations
within the state. A remedial, :tem~
measure was adopted
whereby temporary appointments,
for the duration only, were to be
made tt those positions which
could be satisfactorily filled by
competitive examinations.

Another phase of the Commis-
sion'’s Jabor problem arose, and
continues to arise, from the un-
willingness of workers to secept
employment in State institutions,
particularly in the State Mental
Hygiene Department. Salary in-
creases and overtime pay were not
lucrative enough to hold workers
to their posts or induce new work-
ers. According to the Commis-
sion's report, “of the total of
21,857 positions in the institutions
of the State Mental Hygiene De-
partment, there were at the close
of 1943, 6,118 or 28% vacant,”
Most of these vacancies, indicates
report, were in the lower-
salaried groups.

fom

The outstanding task of the
year, says the report was the Com-
mission's attempt to extend classi-
fication titles of approximately
20,000 positions within the Depart-
ment of Mental Hygiene. Much
dissatisfaction was discerned, the

ission admits, 80 machinery
whs set up for employees to ap-
peal for further adjustments,
About 3,590 appeals have been
filed, For 1944 the Commission
has on its hands 3,000 remaining
appeals to hear and decide on,
And the Classification Board has
Jost more than half of its staff of
trained personnel,

Meanwhile the Commission pre-
pares the necessary competitive
tests for positions that will be
open after the war.

Tnvestigation of applicants was
as intense as ever in 1943, in spite
of manpower shortages, The post
of senior investigator was insti~
tuted toward the end of 1943 to
promote “greater confidence on
the part of the general public in
the civil service system and pro-
vide means for greater efficiency
in the examination and adminis-
trative work of the Commission,”

Of the 59,766 full-time em-
ployees under the jurisdiction of
the State Civil Service Commis-
sion, 5,586 are on military leave,

Labor, Health Agencies
Face Reorganization

ALBANY — Legislation to abolish all statutory bu-
reaus and divisions in the State departments of Health
and Labor will be passed by the Legislature before it
adjourns, it was reliably indicated this week.

This is in conformity with the rtment explained
plans of Governor Dewey to per- eceray Seg te

mit department heads the wid-
est latitude in reorganizing de-
partments, Lump sums, instead
of line item appropriations, were
provided Labor and Health in
next year’s executive budget.

The lump sums, plus the spe-
cial legislation, will thus clear
the way financially and adminis-
tratively for an entirely new set-
up in those departments, with

followed in some others,

are up before the State Legisla-

of

* commissioned in the Navy,

P. Greenfield, a Lieutenant (jm)
in the United States Navy, and a
former New York State employee.

Lieut. Greenfield's occupation-
‘al history includes employment by
the former Transit Commission as
a senior engineering aide. Upon
abolition of that body, he was
transferred to the Public Service
Commission, with the same title.
On May 1, 1943, Greenfield was
and
received a military leave of ab-
sence from the agency. He left
with the assurance that upon his
return from the wars, @ job would
be awaiting him.

How {t Worked Out

However, it didn't work out that
way. Lieut. Greenfield is still in
the service. But he's out of a
job. On October 1, 1943, Chair-
man Milo R. Malthie, head of the
Public Service Commission, di-
rected his dismissal, along with
the dismissal of a number of other
employees in his department who
thought they were safe with their
civil service status. These includ-
ed, by Maltbie’s own admission,
men who are in all branches of
the armed forces.

As things stand now, these men
aye no Jobs to which they can
return, They have nothing but a
preferred eligible Hst, upon which
their names reside.

Maltbie doesn’t deny the facts.
He doesn't deny that Greqnfield
and others in his predicament
have a complaint. However, the
Chairman of the Public Service

Commission insists that he acted | tl

in the armed forces, and had been
away on military leave, was of
no concern to him. That's the
State's problem, not his, he
argues,

“It's simply that the jobs were
abolished,” Maltbie told The
LEADER, “and they were abol-
ished on a strict seniority basts.
I wrote all the facts to Green-
field in response to a letter from
him. I could have preserved the
status of all the men in the
armed forces,” Maltbie admits,

But that might have interfered
with the plans for economy in his
department,

“There were 40 in that group,”
he says, and all but 14 or 15
were let go. Under the Governor's
bill merging the Transit Com-
mission with the Public Service
Commission, I got the discretion
to do what I had to do, The bill
made no exception to men in the
armed forces, I decided I had to
follow seniority absolutely.”

Asked whether he would put
these men back on the job after
they returned from the Army and
Navy, Maltbie disclaimed respon-
sibility, saying: “Tt is the policy
of the State to take care of the
men in the armed forces. Their
names are on a preferred list.
If a post comes along which a
man on this list is qualified to
fill, he gets first cholee ahead
of any other eligibles.”

Maybe Mr. Malthie’s action is
clothed in chilly legality—but it
wasn't compulsory to fire men in

service—and

with complete legality in firing
the men. The fact that they were

he the legalism is
cold comfort to Lieut. Greenfield

and his buddies.

Who's Their Boss—

NY City or N

Y State?

A few weeks ago, an employee of the NYC Registers
Office claimed he was in fact a State employee, and
brought Court action for the 744 percent State bonus,

Last week, the NYC Civil Ser-
vice Commission was faced with
another problem of the status of
these employees who became
“City” workers on January 1, 1942,
when the County offices were
taken over by Uncle Knicker-
booker,

Here are the Commission's de-
lsions:

—These employees shal) be as-

tigned a grade in the City
Civil Bervice im accordance with
the salary received by them on the

date they were taken into the City
service.
j—In cases where the employee
was entitled to receive a
county salary which exceeded the
grade to which he was assigned
in the City service, he would be
automatically promoted to the
next higher grade In the City ser-
vice without examination.

Complications arise from the
fact that there were 7 grades In
the County service, only 5 in the
pad and the salary ranges over-
lap.

ALBANY—A who ap-
peals from his examination rating
to the State Civil Service Com-
mission can expect fast action

Commissioner Louise C. Gerty
last week revealed a new “speed-
up" plan under way, said she:

“Under the present civil service
Jaw a person who takes an ex-
amination and is dissatisfied with
his ratings, may within 20 days
appeal in writing for a higher
rating. Appeals were piled up like
cordwood dating back four or
five years, We have s new plan,
All current appeals are handled
within 30 days and we are hav-
ing special meetings to clear up
all old appeals, When this task
accomplished, we shall stay
caught up."

days in the office of the CivilServ~
ice Commission before action can
be taken on such requests. This
gives an opportunity to employees
who believe @ promotion examina~
tion should be held to file their
Protests sgalnst the open com-
petitive examination with their
department heads,

Notices of requests to fill the
following State positions have
been posted in the office of the
State Civil Service Commission,
on the dates given:

When Provisional

lecomes Provisional

ALBANY—When does a provi-+
sional first become a provisional?
Is tt the date when he starts
work or the date when the civil
service commission decides he is
qualified for appointment? Bik
Supreme Court justices have con-
sidered these questions and are
equally divided in thelr opinions.
Tn a 3 to 2 decision the Appellate
Division recently reversed a lower
court justice who had decided
that approval of the commission

must precede the visional ap~
pointment, and, therefore, such
appointment cannot be dated

back. The higher court, however,
decided that if approval of the
provisional appointment is granted
such approval could be dated back
to the day the provisional ap-
pointee started work, and that

Civil Service Law did not
Setuunit this procedure,

The Law

‘The provision of Inw involved
in the case states:

“The appointing officer may
fominate a person to the state
or municipal commission for non
competitive examination, and if
such nominee shall be certified by
such commission as qualified after
after such non-competitive exam~
ination, he may be appointed pro~
visionally until a selection and
appointment can be made after
competitive examination.”

The case will be taken to the
Court of Appeals for final de-
termination. Welling », Marsh,

Per Diem Men on
St. Patrick's Day

Shure, and it’s indeed a shame
that a son of Erin should have to
lose a day's pay for wearing of the
green and parading in honor of
good St, Patrick,

But that’s the unfortunate sit-
uation which faces per diem em-
ployees of the New York City De-
partment of Sanitation.

The Department notified the
staff that members of societies
which are parading, or members
of the New York Guard, will be
excused from work on Friday,
March 17, with pay.

They'll have to present s note
showing that they actually parad-
ed, However, Commissioner Wil-
liam FP. Carey continued: “Past
experience teaches that it Is very
doubtful that per diem employees
will be paid for such leaves. We
will endeavor to have per diem
employees paid, but there is no
assurance that they will be paid.”

Men, here’s a chance to earn as
much as $22.63 a week in your

less of draft status to work part

Night shifts are from 6 p.m. to

to 2 pm. Day-shift salary rates
are 8042 cents an hour. Night shift
pays 86 cents an hour.

“It's Tougher
For Accountants

The NYC Civil Service Com-
mission has just toughened the
requirements for admission to the
open-competitive and promotion

reau of Excise Taxes, Comptrol-
|

‘examination to Accountant, Bu-
ler’s Office,

The original requirement was
“City service for two years in the
grade of Junior Acoountant or
Senior Bookkeeper,” for the pro-

- motion test,
| @ To this, the Commission added
the following: “Candidates must
have had not Jess than one year
of actual field experience secured
either in the Bureau of Excise
taxes or in outside employment
before their appointment to city
service." This provision applies
seboth to the Senior Bookkeepers
and the Junior Accountants who
wish to take the examination,

Explaining its action, the Com-
mission reported that the Bureau
requires a specialized type of work
for the $2,400-$3,000-a-year po-
sitions,

Men who receive the appoint-
ments, or promotions, must be
bent out imediately to make field
audits, The Commission added
that the proper title for these em-

loyees should be Field Auditor,
But that the Accountant title was
‘used to protect the rights of ac-

countants in the event of lay-offs,
@ Employees of the Comptroller's
office had suggested that an in-
training course be given to pre-

pare junior accountants for the| revenue agent was accepted in-
field work, but this suggestion was |

ut aside by the Commission as
“beside the point and does
