Social Welfare
Teachers Seek
End of Inequality

Want Same Vacations as in

Mental Hygiene, Health and

Education and No More Working Out of
Title—Get Some Official Backing

By FX. CLANCY
Special we Pho LRABER

ALBANY, July 23—The practice
of having employees work out of
title, under conditions that im-
pose inequalities, has caused in-
creased adverse comment among
teachers in the State Department
of Social Welfare, especially be-
cause of failure to obtain redress
when it seemed almost at hand.

‘The employees feel that the
final step is to get the proposals

approved by Budget Director John |
E. Burton. |

In the Departments of Mental
Hygiene, Health and Education
the teachers get the summer off.
In Social Welfare the teachers get
@ one-month vacation, and say

MARY GOODE KRONE

that is inequitable, because the
work they do {s of the same na-
ture, and no reason exists for the
disparity, There ts no feeling in
Social Welfare that the other
teachers should not get the long
vacation, but only that Social
Welfare teachers should be treat-
ed the same as those in the three
other departinents.
Four Schools Affected

The Social Welfare Department
instiitions are the State Agri-
cultural and Industrial School, at
the Training Schoo! for Girls, at
Hudson; the Thomas Indian
School, at Iriquois, and the Train-
ing School for Boys, at Warwick.

Teachers in these schools report
that they perform various duties

required to work out of title, ex-
cept in emergencies, and state
that the year-to-year conditions
cannot be termed emergencies in
any sense.
The vacation question is re-
ted to have been considered
the Budget Director. No offi-
cial word has come from him or
from Social Welfare Commission-
| er Robert L. Lansdale, who is said
to favor modification of the va-
| cation disparity, Employees in|
Social Welfare are informed that
Commissioner Lansdale recognizes
| the injustice. They have confi-|
dence thet he will do all within)
his power. He is known to Le
adverse to publicity on the sub-
Ject.

Confidence in Lansdale

On a showdown between added
compensation and extra vacation,
to accomplish equalization, most
| of the Social Welfare teachers in-
terviewed preferred the extra va-
cation, as they pointed out, the
out-of-title work then would end.

The problem was before the
| Personnel Council, of which
| Mary Goode Krone is Chairman,
|and Charles L. Campbell and
Charles H, Foster members. It is
reported that the Council sympa-
thized with the plea of the em-
Ployees and made its first major
decision when it voted in their
favor.

Pay Different, Too
Pay of teachers in Mental Hy-

than that of teachers in Social
Welfare, which has about 10
teachers, covering from the fourth
grade through the second year of
brackets are not a matter of per-
breackets are not a matter of per-
sonnel administration, but of sal-
ary classification, and would have
to be considered by the Salary
Standardization Board, which is
now making a survey of pay in
private industry compared to State
employ, and comparing pay for
similar or equal work in State
employ.

The Social Welfare teachers say
that they are not much interested
in a few hours more or less a
day, but in the number of work-
ing days in the year, pointing out
that in Mental Hygiene there are
190 six-hour days in a work year,
and also noting that teachers of
problem children in the public
schools get $500 to $600 a year
more han other teachers in that
system. The Social Welfare teach-
ers point out that they teach prob-
lem children.

“Social Welfare could hire a
dozen teachers to solve the prob-
lem,” said one teacher in that
department. “No other employ-
ees than us are consistently asked

giene and Correction is higher

to work out of title.”

Need Exists to Improve Job Classification

CLASSIFICATION and salary allocation are two essential parts
of a single process. Classification, which bears no relationship to
Wages and salaries, is little more than a pastime, while salary deter-

mination, if not based on sound, uniform classification of jobs, is

arbitrary and unfair.

Classification can and often is too particularistic and atomistic,
It looks at a job as an individual phenomenon, and ignores its rela-
tionship to other similar positions both higher and lower and on
the same level. To serve its full purpose, classification must always
be a part of » study of an entire operating service. It must make
clear the inter-relationship promotion lines, and occupational groups

of the entire service. Relationships between jobs are

‘@s the particular jobs themselves.

PURPOSE OF CLASSIFICATION
‘The classification of a large service always suffers when unique,

unnecessary and unrelated titles are created or recognized.

‘These

X quantities confuse the arithmetic of classification. Classification
always suffers when administrative titles are recognized or created.
Whe entire purpose of classification is to get below organizational
lines to determine fundamental and functional relationships and

differences,

Classification always suffers when additional titles or

grades are interposed or superimposed or subimposed in a standard
and series. This generally means favoritism for a few,
AXIOMS OF CLASSIFICATION
It is for the principle of unity and uniformity in classification
that certain axioms have been developed as follows:
1, There must be only a strictly limited number of standard

titles.

2. Grade or rank designations (as junior, assistant, senior,
shall be a part of each title,
grade designation shall have the same meaning |

principal, head, chief, eto.
3. The

4. Lines of promotion and transfer shall be clearly shown,
Policy rather than fact or classification determines the number
of grades of positions to be recognized. Policy determines whether

ils the adoption by the Board
of Supervisors, and the immediate
approval by Acting County Ex-
ecutive James C. Harding of the
salary scales recommended in the
Barrington Report. These sched-
ules resulted from a study by
Barrington Associates, a private
agency hired for the purpose of
rendering an objective report. The
schedules are inked to the Con-
sumers Price Index.

“The adoption,” says the Asso-
ciation, noting that success at-
tends the five-year fight, “marks
the biggest step forward for coun-
ty employee since the depressed
salary scales of 1932 were set.

“Approval of the higher rates
recommended in the Report
crowns with signal success the un-
ceasing fight the Association has
been waging since 1941 to sub-
stantially raise the pay level of
County employees, and caps the
many previous triumphs achieved
along the road.”

5s for a liberal opportunity plan.

MORE TITLES THAN NECESSARY
In the State service some 50,000 jobs reduce to about 2,000 titles

fn about 250 definite promotion series. There are, of course, many |

more titles than are needed and there are many more new promotion
series not yet established and defined that are needed.
‘What then is the situation in respect to the classification of the

Btate service today?

‘The Griffenhagen survey gave a fundamental sound basis of
classification, Some departments, however, did not adopt the classi-
fication, During the years before the Feld-Hamilton Law was
adopted and the Griffenhagen titles permanently adopted, thousands
of jobs were created with no reference to the classification pian.
Mental Hygiene came under the plan apparently with the fixed idea
that the administrative set-up was the proper basis of classification.
In every department requests abounded for new and non-standard
titles, many of which were approved.

CLASSIFICATION JOB AHEAD

New York, then, is still far from having a single unified standard
classification, and only limited progress has been made in job descrip-
tions, adequate specifications, elimination of odd and unnecessary
titles and the designation of promotion series.

‘The Classification Board has been too busy with appeals to do
much of its real basic work of furnishing a complete and satisfactory
classification to serve as a firm foundation for salary allocations.

The Association of State Civil Service Employees believes that
the classification structure must be reviewed and completed so that
the Salary Board may have a firm foundation on which to build a

sound salary plan for the State.

“Frank Corr is one of the ablest |

Processing of Promotion

Exams Being Rushed

' Speelat to The LEADER
ALBANY, June 23—The State

Department of Civil. Service is| of

doing all possible to expedite the
Promotion examinations and the

~ Promulgation of eligible lists, said
Charles L. Campbell, Administra-
tive Director, in commenting today
on the examining work of the
Civil Service Commission.

“We are as anxious as anybody
else to get the lists established
as soon as possible, so that the
promotions may be made by the
department heads as fast as is
practicable.” he said.

Vacation Problem

The effect of the advancement |
of State employees is also to en
large the recruitment, since an;
general movement upward leaves
vacancies at the entrance level.)
However, the entrance examina-
tions are to be resumed on a scale
in the fall, while promotion ex-
aminations have been going right
along. [See list on page 7.)

The Commission 1s concentrat-
ing tow on processing the papers
in examinations already held.

It has been difficult for Com-
mission employees to get their
vacations, they have been so busy
‘on this and related work, but now
the vacations are beginning to be)
accorded smoothly, although more |
or less on a split basis, since if

many employees were to take their
four weeks consecutively the work
the Commission, said
Campbell, would suffer.

What State Employees Should Know

ne By THEODORE BECKER

was in violation of Section 22 (2)
Civil Service Law,

Readers of this
call the report of the case of a/ of the

veteran who was ordered by the
Appellate Division to be reinstated
to the NYC position from which
he had been removed after what
the Court considered was in-
adequate notice. The employee in-
volved was a World War I veteran
with more than 25 years of service
during which no charges or com-
plaints had been filed against him.
One Saturday afternoon,
employee was seen by the Secre-
tary of his department about to
leave his place of work 40 minutes
ahead of quitting time. When
greeted by the Secretary, he re-
plied in a rude and insolent
manner. He was loud and bois-
terous, being under the influence
of liquor at the time. He was
ordered to appear before the Sec-
retary on the following Monday

morning but failed to appear or |
to report the reason for such
failure.

The employee was thereupon
suspended from duty. Pour days
later he was served with charges |
covering the incidents outlined in
the preceding paragraph and in-
cluding a recital of lateness going |
back over three years, The charges
ended with an allegation that the |
employee's neglect in the per-
formance of his duty and his con-/|
duct unbecoming a member of the
Department of Health was preju-
dicial to the efficiency and morale
of the service in that department.

Nature of the Notice

The employee was given notice
to make answer and give explana- |
tion orally or in writing, or both,
with respect to the charges, with-|
in six days. In the communica-|
tion containing the charges, the|
employee was informed that if he

0) was an honorably discharged vet-

eran he might be represented by|
counsel. Despite the fact that he|
was an honorably discharged vet~
eran, entitled to a formal hearing |
at which he could be represented
by counsel, the employee appeared
at the hearing in person and
without counsel, Of the charges
preferred against him he said, "I
will say they are true.” He was
thereupon removed by the Com-
missioner of Health.

reinstatement came before the
Appellate Division, it considered
the notice given to the employee
and decided that it was inade-
quate, inasmuch as it did not in-
dicate to him that his removal
was sought, This, the Court felt,

Provides, in part, that “the
son whose removal is sought
have written notice of such pro=
posed removal and of the reasons
therefor... .”

Of the petitioner's reaction to
the notice given, the Court said:

appreciate the fact that if found
guilty he would be deprived of
his pension rights.”

Accordingly, the Appellate Diyi-
sion tnanimously ordered the
veteran's reinstatement with back
pay. This was the status of the
case when previously reported
herein. However, since then an
appeal was taken to the Court of
Appeals.

Court of Appeals’ Decision

The latter court—highest in the
State—reviewed the record in the
case and with equal unanimity
reversed the lower court's ruling
and upheld the removal of the
veteran, Its decision, rendered
without opinion, was that the
notice given to the employee had
been sufficient to comply with the
statute. (Mullaney v. Stebbins.)

The Court of Appeals’ decision
indicates that civil service em-
ployees will not be permitted to
take refuge behind an allegation
that they did not understand that
they might be removed on charges,
so long as the notice received
refers to charges and contains
sufficient information that could
be construed as a warning that
removal might be sought. It is
implicit in the holding of the
Court of Appeals, although not
elaborated by formal opinion, that
the test of the adequacy of a
notice of proposed removal is not
what the employee actually
thought it meant but whether it
could reasonably be construed to
mean what the appolnting officer
intended it to mean.

‘The lesson taught by the Court's
decision {s that if a communica-
tion is received by an employee
containing charges which could
support removal or other discip-
linary action, the employee, to be
on the safe side, should assume
that removal or other disciplinary
action is sought and should take
all proper steps to protect his in-
terests, He should not rely on any
orca a ambiguity in the notice

Court of Appeals has
notice against such a course of
action,

Five Pension Bills’
Passage a Delayed Boon

HE Council’s unanimous vote in favor of the proposed

redistribution of voting strength on the Board of Trus-
tees of the Fire Department Pension Fund, after receipt
of an emergency message from Mayor O'Dwyer, was a
fitting atonement for long delayed action on worthwhile
legislation. The bills represent agreement by the Uni-
formed Firemen’s Association and the Uniformed Fire
Officers Association. Thus any past differences were com-
posed. Still, some opposition must have continued, not
from any of these sources, but from a few evidently trying
to revive lost influence. It is fortunate that the Mayor
took a determined stand in favor of these bills and put the
malcontents to rout. . s

There now remains only the necessity of favorable
action by the Board of Estimate, expected at the July 25
meeting, and approval by the Mayor, which may be taken
for granted. In his emergency message he asked that
the proposal be adopted,

The Board of Trustees of the Fire Pension Fund, if
the legislation is enacted, would consist of three members
of the Executive Board of the Uniformed Fire Officers
Association with a total of 314 votes; the President of the
Pilots and Marine Engineers Association, with 14 vote and
the Uniformed Firemen’s Association, with eight votes,
while the Fire Commissioner, the Comptroller, the Mayor
and City Treasurer each has three votes,

The UFOA representatives consist of a Chief with 1
vote; a Captain with 1 vote; and a Lieutenant with 114
votes.

The purpose is to rectify an impossible situation
whereby representation is accorded to organizations either
already liquidated or in process of liquidation, and none
to some thriving, representative groups.

State Welfare Teachers’
Plea Should Succeed

BJECTION to summer work performed out of title
year after year by the teachers in the State De-
partment of Social Welfare is not only made by the em-
ployees themselves, but by some of the officials, besides,
If the vacations the teachers get, which are shorter than
those of teachers in other State departments, are equalized
by bringing the lesser up to the greater, the out-of-title
work would disappear. Some additional teachers would
have to be hired.

It is admittedly a problem to keep the one depart-
ment running comparably to other departments, but a
still greater problem arises if nothing is done to attempt
equalization. The number of teachers in Social Welfare
is small, but the principle at stake is large. If out-of-title
work is to be performed only in an emergency, any de-
partment head would finally find it difficult to plead the
existence of a permanent emergency as a defense of con-
tinuation of an unfair condition. Not mere word-juggling,
but a principle is in issue that affects employees’ morale
and sense of justice,

While the Social Welfare teachers’ plea is reported
to have cleared al) hurdles except the Budget Director's
office, it is not to be assumed that Mr. Burton will not
give the proposal serious consideration. The teachers’
plea is one that commends itself strongly enough to pre-

vail, even over the additional expense,

34 POLICEMEN DISMISSED

IN MISSISSIPPI BECAUSE
OF UNION MEMBERSHIP

Dismissal of 34 policemen in
Jackson, Miss., for “insubordina-
tion and acts tending to injure the
public service,” through their re-
fusal to resign membership in a
labor union, was upheld by the
Mississippi Supreme Court

The policemerf joined @ loca) of
the American Federation of Btate

County and Municipal Employees.
Upon their refusal to resign there-
from they were dismissed by the
Mayor whose action was upheld
by the Civil Service Commission.
The policemen appealed to the
courts for reinstatement on the
ground Qiat their dismissal was
unlawful in that the City could
not preclude them from joining a

WILLIAM 8. FILKINS

RE-ELECTED PRESIDENT for
a sixth term of the Public Service

_| Motor Vehicle Inspectors Chapter

of the Association of State Civil
Servige Employees, William B.
Filkins is the kind of a man the
people of the State like to have
in their employ. Courtesy and
good nature blend to make him «
man of exceptional personality.
You like him from the start, like
him better as you go on, and ex-
perience the finest type of friend-
ship and comradeship in year in
and year out association with him,

He was born in Utica on March
3, 1893. He was graduated *from
Utica Free Academy in 1911.
While at the Academy he played
on both the baseball and basket
ball teams. He was top notch in
basket ball also in his profes-
sional playing in the old New York
State Basket Ball League, 1911 to
1917.

Enters State Employ

Business lured him to become
Chief Clerk and Paymaster in the
Utica District fof the New York
Telephone Company during the
basket ball playing period, and
while engaged in his business
dutites he found time to qualify
as Court Stenographer.

He volunteered for service with
the 27th Division in April, 1917.
He served overseas in four major
operations, and was discharged
from service after World War I
as First Sergeant of the 62nd Ar-
tillery Brigade. Following dis-
charge, he entered the employ of
the Utica Construction Company
as superintendent of equipment.

In 1932 he decided to accept an
appointment as Motor Vehicle In-
spector of the Department of
Public Service. He was motivated
largely by the opportunity for
service in this very important field
of public endeavor, And he be-
lieved in the merit system.

Lauds Merit System

Commenting on this point, he
says:

“The merit system as outlined
in the State Constitution is the
best means of recruiting public
workers, It was conceived by out-
standing Americans as a means
of maintaining efficient civil gov-
ernment. It has not been applied
to anything like its maximum use~
fulness, The State service has
been benefited immeasurably by
the organized cooperation of
State employees functioning
through the Association of State
Civil Service Employees.

“Our Chapter has been and is
still fighting for full application
of the merit system provided in the
Constitution of the State and as
developed in the civil service laws
and rules. We are asking only
fair play and sound

icles commonly accepted in

bor relations in the present day.

Much Accomplished

“A great deal has been accom~-
plished by the State Association
and we of our Chapter have pro-
fited with other State workers,
Our Chapter has never had a
membership committee because we

believe it is @ privilege to be
ation.”

ordered the policemen reinstated,
but the Supreme Court reversed
the lower court on the ground
that members of the police force
must perform thelr duties without
favoritism and must be “free from
obligation or of any other alleg~
jance whatsoever." ‘The court held

in effect that the pledge made by
the policemen to the labor union
was in conflict with thelr oath of
office as policemen,

Veterans’ Rights

By H. E

Counsel, National

A FORMER civil service employee of N, ¥. State or a political
division who left his public position to enter the armed’ forces,
should apply for reinstatement to his personnel officer within ninety
days after the termination of miliary duty and will have his name
placed on a special list. Eligibility on this list is for four years,
After this military reemployment list Is established, {t must be made
available to appointing officers and under the law no position may
be filled until an appointing officer certifies to the Personnel Office
that no person on such military reemployment list who formerly
held the same or similar position is qualified to fill and willing te
gecept appointment to such vacancy. It should be noted, however,
that appointments can be made from a military reemployment list

WHAT TO REQUEST

If his name was reached for certification while he was in military
service, his appointing officer was given discretion under the Mili-
tary Law to appoint him or to skip over his name, If he appointed
him, then, even though the veteran was unsbe to report for duty,
he was granted a military leave of absence with the right to return
to the position after the termination of military duty.

If reached for appointment while in military service without
receiving appointment, then, upon return, or within 2 years after
the termination of military duty, the veteran should request that
his name be placed on a special eligible list. A special eligible list
remains in existence for two years from the date of termination of
military duty and must be used before any similar eligible list estab-
lished after that one upon which the name originally appeared may
be used. Of course, if not reached for appointment from the eligible

Welfare Program

‘Requires Unity

By Edward E. Rhatigan
NYC Commissioner of Welfare

ANY MAJOR CHANGES or extensions in the NYC welfare
program must of necessity await Federal and State legislation.

Our experience points clearly and unmistakably to the need of
one important change, if we are to reduce our administrative over-
head. The present system of categorical relief, with all of its con~
fusions and administrative complexities, should be abolished and a
single form of public assistance substituted. Prom the point of view
of the relief recipient this is now the fact, since all relief grants are
based on one schedule, irrespective of category, such as Old Age
Assistance, Aid to Dependent Children, etc., but administratively we
must maintain, to satisfy State and Federal regulations, a costly
overhead In relation to accounts, claims, statistics, and the like,

‘The categorical system had its origin in the piecemeal acceptance
by the public of the necessity of providing for certain groups in the
population. Beginning with homeless children and the blind and
veteran groups, many year ago, public assistance has been gradually
extended to include dependent children in the home, the aged, and,
Eaton those who were unemployed and unable to provide for them-
selves.

‘We have reached the end of the road. Today there is complete
acceptance by all responsible elements of the population of the prin-
ciple of public assistance for those unable to support themselves.

‘The inescapable fact is that assistance of some form Js available
for every one in need; it is of mo consequence to him or to the
public what category of relief provides it.

The second major Ly is that it is impossible for municipal-
ities further to extend service to children and persons requir-
ing hospitalization and chronic care in institutions without some

|| State aid. The total cost, which runs into tens of millions of dollars,

4s now borne wholly by NYC.

‘There are many basic extensions of the program for children
which citizens are urging upon the city administration, but without
some help from the State it will be impossible to meet these needs,

Comment, Please

Age in Federal Retirement

Editor, The LEADER:

Many veteran organisations
complain that the veterans are
not doing so well in getting Gov-

ernment jobs, oblaining only
minor jobs at entrance-salary
rates.

‘This Is true, because the well-
paying jobs are held by oldiime
employees of long service with
permanent status, and they are
unable to retire—no matter how
many years of service they have—
because of that “age-factor” orlg-
inally written into the Retirement
Law back in 1920, Thus, an old-
Umer with say 25 to 52 years of
service cannot get out, because he
or she has not reached a stipulated

age. Plenty with 30 to 40 years of
service are aching to get out, due

to exhaustive work through two
wars, infirmities of passing years,
failing eyesight on sedentary work,
etc, But no, they are not old
enough, says the antiquated Re-
trement Law made a decade ago,

No one rates these permanent,
well-paying jobs better than
veterans, and the veteran or
{zations can get them for veterans
if they will start a drive to amend
the Retirement Law so as to re-
move that age factor, and let
number of years of service alone
be the factor in retiring, Also, in
making this change, they should
emphasize that the Vacancies rex
sulting from these civil service
retirements shall be earmarked ex-
clusively for military and navel
| veterans

Candidates Cal
Fire Test Stiff

Candidates who took the NYC examination for Fire- |]
man (F.D.), held a week ago Saturday, report that the
examination was too stiff for the entrance level, and
would be more suitable for promotion to Lieutenant,

At the various schools where the tests were held
candidates told representatives of The LEADER that the
examination was far tougher than they had expected.
One candidate described it as ‘a whopper.” Others tele-
phoned in their similar comment. Those who got away
from the examination finished earliest, and left, had the
least to say, but this class usually represents a combina-
tion of those who wrote “I withdraw” on their papers, or
who knew the subjects so well that they skated success-
fully through the test, but fast.

At least one veteran organization is studying the
examination paper.

The physical exam is expected to be held early in
ptember.

eral government,

The examination was really
difficult, especially because of
selentific questions, new to this
| type of exam, and some tough
| intelligence and judgment ques-
tions sprinkled among easy and
rather obvious ones of the same
classification.

Heavy Stress om Physics

The heavy stress+ on physics
questions made it impossible for
anybody to pass the exam who had
not studied this particular sub-
| Ject, either a8 part of his formal
| education, or especially for the
examination. Physics courses
usually begin in the later high
| school terms, not in elementary
school; chemistry courses, also.

Besides the direct physics ques-
; Hons, some of the definition ques-
| tons were related to physics, but
these are classed under definitions.

The fire duty questions, the
second ranking in number, did not
require any actual experience in
fire fighting, but could be answered
by the exercise of intelligence. In
| the classification given, however,

the questions grouped under in-

telligence are independent of those |
concerning fire duty, and relate
to intelligence generally, because
| intelligence questions could figure
in an examination for any title.

which stated: “Every fireman, re-

Economic Question

One of the toughest questions
concerned the relationship of in-
fiation to our economy. The can-
didate was asked to state whether
the issue on which the inflation
discussions pivot is how best to
increase the amount of capital for
business loans, raise employment
to pre-war levels, increase produc-

tion of higher-priced goods,
achteve full notion of civilian
goods or luce the standard of

living of certain income groups.
‘The tentative key answer (D) was,
Achieve full production of civilian
goods,

Low Pass Mark Expected

The Fireman pass mark will be
that of the 4,000th candidate in
the written test, and because of
the toughness of the exam, that
mark is bound to be below the 82.5
pass mark of the 5,000th candi-
date in the Patrolman written
test, The Fireman final pass mark
—for the written and physical—
will be that of the 1,500th candi-
date, unless the marks or other
reasons required @ somewhat
higher number.

'Fire Lieut. Filing
Active Near End

As almost 6,000 Firemen had applied for the exami-
nation for promotion to Lieutenant by today,it was con-
fidently expected that the prophesy that 7,000 would
enter the test will be more than fulfilled by tomorrow
(Wednesday), when the filing period closes.

As is true of practically all examinations, the largest
number of applications are received in the last few days,
and normally the greatest daily number on the last day.

The last examination was held in 1941 and the pre-
vious one in 1937. Because of the war the examination
was not held last year, but now that it is under way,
every effort is bemg made by the NYC Civil Service Com-
mission to expedite it.

As veteran preference applies, all who attain a place
on the eligible list will be divided into three groups, and
appointed in that order: 1, disabled veterans; 2, veterans
and 3, non-veterans,

Written

The official questions in the
NYC examination for Fireman
(F.D.), and a@ repetition of the
official tentative key answers to
them, reveal that, besides some
idea of the performance of fire
duty, the candidate was expected
to have a knoweldge of elementary
physics and chemistry, be familiar

something about first aid, current
events, mathematics and govern-
ment, These requirements are
unusual in a NYC Fireman exam-
ination, where intelligence and
judgment were normally the main
consideration,

The examination was taken by
15,595 on Saturday, July 13, and
the key answers were published in
‘The LEADER last week, issue of
July 16, The official answer to
28 is B, and not D as misprinted
then,

The first 25 questions are pub-
Ushed in The LEADER this week.
The next 25 will appear next week,
|issue of July 30. There will be
| another 25 in the August 6 issue,
| while the final installment will be
published in the August 13 Issue,

The examination has general
interest to candidates in other
tests, including particularly the
current Fire Lieutenant test, and
incidentally future State and Fed-
eral exams, as well as to the
general public, for the informa-
tion it reveals on a wide variety of
subjects. :

The first 25 questions, with
answers:

1, Suppose that you are a fire-
man and that your company has
responded to a five at a@ large
apartment house, You are on a
ladder, about to enter a smoke-
filled room through the window in
order to search for a woman re-
ported to be still in the burning
building. Of the following, the
best action for you to take first
before you enter the room is to:

(A) make certain that there is
at least one other means of exit
from the room in the event of an
emergency; (B) lash the ladder
securely to a heavy plece of fur-

2. Suppose that a fire has oc-
curred in a drug store basement
where a large stock of chemicals
is stored on open shelves and in
wooden boxes, As a member of

ment, The smoke is very thick,
but flames can be seen behind a
tow of boxes. Of the following,
the chief precaution for you to
take Is to avoid:

(A) upsetting and mixing the
chemicals, lest there be an ex~
losion; (B) wetting any wooden

perature,

12. Suppose that, while you are
driving @ piece of fire apparatus
to a fire, your officer cautions you
to avoid driving over any fire hose
being used to throw water on the
fire. Of the following, the chief
reason for this order is that:

(A) damage to its tires may
leave a piece of fire apparatus
stranded; (B) burst hose may
leave an operating company in a
Precarious position; (C) interfer-
ence with the maneuverability of
fire apparatus may lead to a fire
getting out of hand; (D) the area
in front of a fire must be kept,
clear of encumbrances; (E) the
area in front of a building is the

int in greatest danger of col-

psing walls,

13, Euppose that a fireman has
been injured. He has received a
deep puncture in his right arm
The one of the following steps
which should not be taken in ad-
ministering first ald to this fire-
man is to:

(A) wash the wound; (b) re-
move all soiled clothing around

the wound; (C) apply an anti-
septic; (D) apply a sterile dress-
ing; (E) treat for shock.

14, "The Fire Department
should receive full information on
all extensive street repairs." Such
information is valuable to the
Fire Department chiefly because
it indicates:

(A) areas requiring very careful
inspection for fire hazards involv-

ing construction materials stored
in the streets; (B) necessary
changes In planned routes to be
followed by Fire Department
equipment in ee ae Hi hg
alarms; (C) possible dam:

water mains affecting neighbor:
hoods far removed from the points
of street damage; (D) that the
experience of

alarms is an important considera-
tion determining the need for
street repairs; (E) a logical ex-
planation for some of the traffic
accidents involving Fire Depart-
ment vehicles which may have oc-

under repair.

15. “Keep In mind that floor
boards are, as a rule, laid length-
wise in a room.” This advice can
be most helpful to a fireman in:

(A) keeping the amount of hose
necessary to fight a fire at a mini~
mum; (B) locating the path of a
fire spreading within the walls of
a room; (C) escaping from a room
filled with dense smoke; (D)
avoiding unnecessary damage to
property while extinguishing a
fire; (&) determining the exact
location of a fire hidden by thick
smoke.

16. Suppose that the duty of the
| fire company to which you are at-

tached is to remove hose from the
hose wagon, connect the hose to
the pumper, and advance into the
burning building with the hose
line so that water may be thrown
upon the fire You are cautioned
by your officer not to tangle the
\hose during this maneuver, Of

th
nozzle to advance readily into the
burning building; (3) maintain
the hose line close to the pumper
where it can be constantly ob-
served; (C) reduce friction loss In
the hose line; (D) prevent total
blocking of the water by creases
in the hose line; (E) allow gather-
to| ing up the hose line rapidly after
the fire has been extingulshed.
18, Suppose that you are throw-
ing water on a fire by means of
@ fire hose line. Your leutenant
orders you to direct the stream
from the nozzle so as to hit the
ceiling midway between the fire
and the point at which you are
standing, As an alert fireman, you
should realize that the chief rea-
son for this order is probably

curred previously in the areas} that.

(A) the fire covers a large area;
(B) the fire is dying out grad-
ually but perceptibly; (C) pres-
sure in the hose is so grest that
it is difficult for one fireman to
direct the stream of water ac-
curately; (D) there is insufficient

19. "Fireman holding a life net
should keep thelr eyes on the per-
son jumping from a
building.” Of the following, the

mendation is that:

jump into a life net may overesti-
mate the distance of the net from
the building; (B) some persons
will not jump into a life net un-
Jess given confidence: (C) a per-
son jumping into a life net may
be seriously injured if the net is

all risk of fire is to be eliminated;
(C) the more carefully reinspec-
tions are made, the less significant

(A) locks and other devices for

unnecessary fire hazards; (B) skill
in the use of forcible entry tools
is essential to firemen; (C) fires
in modern buildings are the most

FIXED PASS MARK
DROPPED BY JERSEY

In announcing resumption of
competitive examinations, the New
Jersey Civil Service Commission
revealed that it will no longer
provide a fixed percentage pass-
ing mark in its examinations,
Heretofore the Commission has
required candidates to receive a

eral average of 70 per cent to

eligible for appointment.

The new plan will provide for
shorter eligible lists based on the
number of vacancies expected to

be filed during the life of the list;
so that if the likely number of
appointments from the list is to
be 50, the eligible list will consist
of about 75 persons found best
qualified in the competitive test.
The Commission also plans to
shorten the life of eligible lists
so as to hold examinations more
frequently, thus giving more per-
sons, particularly those coming
out of the military service from
time to time, opportunity to com-
pete for public positions,

Central Hiring
Agencies Asked

Speciat to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, July 23—
Amendment of the rehiring order
was recommended to President
Truman today for the creation of
central hiring agencies, by the
United Public Workers of America
(CIO). The union asked that
Section 4 of Executive Order 9691
be amended for the creation of
central hiring registers in the Civil
Service Commission, composed of
veterans and terminated Govern-
ment employees, in order of their
retention credits, and the filling
of all so-called “temporary vacan-
cies” from these registers.
Central hiring agencies within
departments are requested, with
outside hiring barred until such
registers are derleted.

The union complained that the
Department of Commerce let out
employees without canvassing job
opportunities that would make
transfers possible. |

Summer Resorts Plan
To Stay Open Longer

Summer will be two months
longer in New York State this
year, the New York State De-
partment of Commerce announced
today, The prediction follows a
survey which shows that for the
first time in history the majority
of the State's resorts are plan-
ning to extend their season into
the early fall months,

According to the Department's
figures 85 per cent of the renee
how open will be open in Septem
ber 69 per cent will be open
in October. They will be able to
accommodate about half as many
guests during these two months
as they were able to take in July
and August.

Resort operators report that
the demand for reservations is
setting new records with more
people planning vacations this
year than ever before. For the
inveterate autumn vacationist
and those others who this year
experienced difficulty in getting
summer accommodations, the plan
to extend the season is expected

this is the first time that New
York operators, busy since May,
have considered such a long sea,

ae added that nobody was more
anxious than he to get the rating
finished and the eligible roster es-
tablished. He refused to specu-
late on the date when the register
would be set up, but others men-
tioned late September as a good

likelihood,
One of the largest of the Fed-
Sook examinations, the Steno-Typ-
, first announced exclu-

the continuing great need for
qualified Stenographer and Typists
in the Federal service.

| Comment on Quality

Mr. Rossel) stated that the ex~
amination will produce good qhal-
ity employees, especially as the
list will probably contain the
names of a relatively large num-
ber of incumbents of Federal jobs
who, hired on a war-service in-
definite basis, are seeking per-
manency.

Friends of Mr. Rossell quoted
him as saying, also, that anybody
who was qualified should have
been able to get a high enough
score to attain a place on the ros-
\ter of eligibles.

FIRE CHIEF
VETERANS’

Bight Deputy Chiefs had filed
applications for the promotion
examination to Chief, Fire De-

partment, up to press time, They
Were Edward J, O'Connor, Henry
Wittekind, John L. Holian, P.
Joseph Connolly, William J. Hef-
fernan, Edward M. F. Conway,
Peter Loftus.and John J, T,
Waldron, in the order in which
the applications were received by
the NYC Civil Service Commis-
sion. All except Deputy Chiefs
Wittekind and Waldron are war
veterans. Deputy Chief Conway
is the only disabled war veteran.

The last filing date is July 31.
real 40 Deputy Chiefs are elig-
ible.

Under the veteran preference
amendment to the State constitu-
tion, ratified at the polls last
November and effective January 1
Iast, eligibles who are disabled
veterans go to the top of the list,
veterans next, and non-veterans
last. A candidate who is a veteran
therefore must first pass the ex-
amination before he becomes en-
titled to preference.

While the enabling act passed
by the last session of the Legis-
Jature confirms and amplifies the
constitutional requirement of ap-
pointment of the veteran, not
merely his certification, physical
and mental ability to cope with
the job can be required by the
Commission,

TEST
AFFAIR

As the situation stood at press-
time, since there is only one job

of Fire Chief, Messrs, Wittekind | 50

and Waldron are staking their
chances on being the only ones
of the candidates to pass the
exam. Otherwise @ veteran, and
particularly a disabled veteran,
would be appointed.

McNAMARACASTS VOTE
MAKING MORTON HEAD
OF NYC CIVIL SERVICE

By WARREN L. WADSWORTH

The NYC Civil Service Com-
mission has a regular Democratic
majority again, for the first time
in a dozen years.

‘This change took place through

Morton, a regular Democrat, was
elected by the Commission as its
President, who receives $8,500, He
had been a Commissioner for 24
years. He lives at 108 West 111th
Street, Manhattan,

The other Commission member,
Mrs, Esther Bromley, a Repub-}
lican, was on vacation when the}

ever, the present arrangement Is
regarded by informed administra-
tion officials as temporary.

lives at 334 83rd Street, Brooklyn,
near where Mayor O'Dwyer lived
before moving to Gracie Man-
sion, was sworn in by Mayor
O'Dwyer for a full six-year term
to succeed Harry W. Marsh, whose
term expired last May 31, but
who was continued on the rolls
until June 20, long enough to be
entitled to a pension. Mr, Marsh
was president of the Civil Service
Commission, He is an independ-
ent Democrat, farther removed
from the Democratic organization
than any Republican.

Mr, McNamara is 57 years old.

Returning Vets Share
Interim Pay Raises

Under a recent revision in the) in the same department or agency

rules of the Louisiana State Civil
Service Commission, State em-
ployees who return to their jobs
from military service will receive
any pay increases to which they
would have been entitled if they
had remained in their former
positions. The new rule provides
that reinstated veterans will re-
ceive an adjustment in pay equal
to the greatest number of in-
creases received by other em-~-
ployees in the same classification

during the period the reinstated
employee was on military leave.
If there are no other employees
in the same class, the adjustment
will consist of two pay increase
steps, or an increase to the maxi=
mum rate for the class, whichever
is the lower. In the case of vet-
erans who returned to their jobs
prior to the adoption of the new
policy, the rule provides that the
increase may be made retroactive
to the date of the veteran's re-

instatement, or to August 14, 1945,
