That’s the inside word from
Washington where the possibility
of 2 48-hour work week for all

The fact is that the War and

suit, High Federal personnel of-
ficials frankly believe that a 48-
hour will be universal through-
out the Government service with-

J Bit there officials also know
that the matter of paying
Federal workers higher salaries
for the longer hours also is a
problem that must be met square-

ly. And opinion is widely-held
that the Congress would be will-
ing to pay employees, particular-
ly in Washington, higher salaries
if they were placed on a 48-hour
week,
Suggests Higher Pay
Representative Edward H. Rees
of Kansas, an influential Repub-
lican member of the House Civil
Service Committee who can
usually be counted on to protest
measures that will benefit Bed-
eval workers, has nevertheless
suggested to the Administration
that Federal workers in Wash-
ington be placed on a 48-hour
week and that the employees be
paid overtime for the additional
8 hours,
Rees argues that office space
and housing in Washington would
be relieved somewhat if the em-
ployees already in Washington
were made to do more work, thus
cutting the number of new em-
ployees.
Draft Employees for War Work
Now of course the employee
in a non-war agency is
naturally going to ask why he
should be called on to work a
48-hour week when he has gotten
his work down in a groove so he
can get it done in the standard
39 hours, That's a good question,
informed opinion says, but it'll
soon $s answered to the satisfac-
tion of the non-war employee.
It's a fact that the Civil Service
Commission is now working on a
more effect've plan to) draft the
services of non-war Federal em-
ployees for duty in the war
agencies, Priorities on the ser-
vices on Federal workers will be
here for the duration and it won't
be long in getting here.
War agencies in Washington are
ng and screaming for admin-
istrators experienced in Govern-
ment red tape, They need budget,
personnel, executive officers and
the like, The jobs pay from $5,600
to $9,000. The Commission has
set up a special unit headed by
Emory Olson to supply the war
agencies with administrators.
STANDARDS
AFL Berates Govt.
Overtime Practice
WASHINGTON,—The Executive
Council of the American Federa-
tion of Labor last week urged
that government employees
ceive the ‘‘same consideration’’
do workers in private industry,
“It would be grossly unfair,’””
said @ prepared statement, "for
the Government to set standards
for hours of work in industry and
then violate these standards with
respect to employees in the fed-
eral service, Yet this is happen-
ing today,
‘The statement pointed out that,
while legislation exists permitting
department heads to pay over:
time to government workers, this
practice is not being followed in
many cases.
Agencies Move
To New York City
WASHINGTON, — New York's
Congressional delegation is put-
ting the heat on Federal agenctes
to move to New York City,
Definitely on the way to NYC
are the Wage and Hour Division
of the Labor Department, a small
unit of the solicitor’s office of the
Labor Department, and the Em-
ployes Compensation Commission,
a total of nearly 900 employ
A number of other Federa:
agencies will move from Washing-
ton and New York is a good bet
to land several,
Meanwhile, on the New York
end, civil and commercial organi
zations last week began to coordi-
nate a campaign to bring a far
larger number of agencies to the
big city—perhaps all leaving
Washington, Prominent in the ef-
fort Is the Commerce and Indus-
try Association of New York,
with offices at 233 Broadway.
in The Leader’s Series of Reports
President Harry B, Mitchell of
the Civil Service Commission has
written the heads of 90 depart-
ments and agencies urging them
to send him the list of top-flight
officials that they will release to
war agencies for the duration.
It’s all on a volunteer basis
now, but unless the agencies
come through voluntarily you can
expect the Commission to crack
the whip on the non-war outfits.
The Commission will transfer to
the war agencies not only ad-
ministrators but stenographers,
accountants, mimeograph opera~
tors and all other classes where
experienced people are hard to
find,
pis non-was agencies are go-
ing to be hit hard and they
will have to struggle along with-
out adequate help as replacements
will be hard to get, And the em-
ployees who stay on the job must
of necessity do more work,
How Many More?
All of which brings up the
question: How many more
employees does Uncle Sam plan
to hire? No one knows exactly
but it will be thousands, tens of
thousands and hundreds of
thousands, That may sound fan-
tastic, but it’s the truth never-
theless.
The Civil Service Commission
Is now placing workers at the
rate of 100,000 a month and with-
in a year it’s anticipated from a
million to 1,200,000 will be placed.
These figures incude new jobs
and replacements, Between 700,-
000 and 800,000 new jobs will be
created in the Federal Service
during the 1942 calendar year.
That's the estimate.
67 8 those million workers,
the Civil Service Commission
must continue to lower its re-
quirements. It will mean that
more old and younger people
will be hired by the Government
and it will mean further that
the Government must establish
courses to train people so they
can do a job once they get on
the Federal payroll.
NEW BILLS
Retirement Bill
Becomes Law
WASHINGTON, — The Rams-
peck-Mead retirement bill is the
law of the land, and the half a
million employees who are brought
in under the Civil Service retire-
ment system by the act already
are having 3/4 per cent deducted
from their paychecks. On July 1,
the rate will be increased to 5 per
cent for everyone, Employees in
the ser e who are 70 and more
and who ave eligible for immedi-
ate retirement probably won't be
retired for at least several months,
The President is expected to sign
an executive order extending the
compulsory retirement date until
such a time as replacements
can be recruited,
The United States Civil Service
Conmnission lest week issued the
following statement on the pas-
sage of H.R, 8487, an Act to
Amend the Civil Service Retlre-
ment Act:
The amendment to the Civil
Service Retirement Act which has
been signed by the President ex-
tends the coverage of the civil
service retirement system to all
officers and employees in the ex-
ecutive, legislative, and judicial
branches of the Government who
are not already subject to another
retirement system for such offi-
cers and employees. It is esth
mated that an additional number
of approximately 250,000 federal
officers and employees will be-
come eligible for the benefits of
the retirement system. Before
amendment, the Retirement Act
affected about 1,000,000 civilian
employees.
The principal features of the
amendment are as follows:

Applications for city open-
competitive examinations for
conductor, trackman, telephone
operator, grade 1, and for pro-
motion tests for conductor, clerk,
grade 2, special patrolman, grade
2, stenographer, grade 2, are be-
ing issued for two weeks by the
Municipal Civil Service Commis-
sion.
Altogether applications are
being issued for a total of 11
open-competitive and 16 promo-
tion tests, The last date for ob-
taining and filing these applica-
tions is Saturday, February 14.
With no experience required,
the conductor and trackman tests
offer the widest opportunity for a
railroad career in the New York
City Transit system, since the
city took over the transportation
lines. In particular the conductor
list is expected to be widely used.
In addition to the 90 jobs now
open for conductors, hundreds of
other positions as conductors,
street car operators and railroad
clerks are expected to be offered
to young men who pass the con-
ductor exam,

Payless Sundays
Sanitation Department em-
ployees are having payless Sun-
days again, An order has gone
out from Commissioner Carey's
office calling a halt to the pay-
ment of all Sunday work in the
department.
This edict, nullifying advances
made by sanitation workers for
compensation for working on the
Sabbath, became effective Sun-
day last and will remain ‘for the
duration,” according to Mr. Carey.
It has been made despite of @
$200,000 appropriation in the cur-
rent budget that might be used to
repay sanitation employees for
their Sunday efforts. Working on
a stagger basis, they will now re-
ceive time off instead.
BUDGET
Sanitation Dept.
Getting Smaller
The Sanitation Department is
suffering deeply from impending
budget cuts. There's a shortage
of almost 600 men in the depart-
ment; and by September, accord-
ing to one official, it may reach
1,000, Replacements aren't being
made, and the kind of budget the*
department must get up looks as
if the city’s streets will be cleaned
by less men,
their work, conductors are paid
salaries of 65 cents to 78 cents per
hour, for a 48-hour week. The
salary for trackman is 63 to 83
cents per hour, At present there
are 51 vacancies as trackman in
the three divisions of the subway
system, The physical and medical
requirements for trackman are
much stiffer than those for con-
ductor.
Telephone Operator
One year's experience as a tele-
phone operator and graduation
from high school is required for
candidates for the telephone
operator, grade 1, (women) test.
Wider Eligiblity for Promotion
The promotion test for clerk,
grade 2, is the first announce-
ment of an examination since the
city adopted wider eligiblity re-
quirements for promotion tests in
clerical service. This test is open
to all employees in the competi-
tive class whose salaries range up
to but not including $1,800 per
annum, who have served continu-
ously for one year in the city ser-
vice at the time of the written
examination. Previously, candi-

Emil Ellis Warns
Councilman
Emil K, Ellis takes exception
to the defense which Councilman
Stanley Isaacs has announced of
Paul Jerome Kern and the Mu-
nicipal Civil Service Commission.
Last week, Mr, Isaacs referred
to the re-establishment of the
Council Committee Investigating
Civil Service as “continued snip-
ing.” Mr, Ellis, counsel to the
committee, wrote a letter to The
LEADER saying:
“It is interesting to note that
Mr. Isaacs has assumed the role
of Kern's defender. Mr. Isaacs
should be reminded of what hap-
pened to Mr. Kern's former cham-
pion in the City Council, Robert
K. Straus,
“It is a sufficient answer to Mr,
Isaacs’ second-hand comments to
call his attention to the fact that
Mr, Straus found my report schol-
arly, objective and useful and
therefore voted to adopt it, al-
though he had earlier been a
critic of the investigation.
“Despite Mr, Straus’ unimpeach-
able integrity, Mr. Kern turned
upon his former friend and de-
nounced him as a ‘stooge’ of
‘Tammany Hall. Mr. Isaacs may
well take heed,
“T suggest that Mr. Isaacs first
read the report and then find
fault, if he can. If he takes the
trouble to read the report, he
will find that far from contain-
ing a single political allusion or
attack, it recommends safeguards
against political domination of
Civil Service. He will find 46
constructive, specific recommen-
ments also affect the stenog-
rapher, grade 2, test. This exam
is open to permanent employees
who have served for one year at
the time of the first assembled
test. The permanent employces
eligible for this test are those
who have served in the clerical
services, grades 1 and 2, except
stenographer, grade 2, the at-
tendance service, grade 1, and the
accountant service.
Nine promotion tests in the New
York City Transit System offer
a wide range of promotion oppor-
tunities for employees of the sub-
way system. These tests include
exams for promotion to assistant
station supervisor, assistant train
dispatcher, conductor, foreman,
electrical power, maintainer
helper, group B, power main-
tainer, group A, signal main-

Many Eligibles
Bligibles on the sheriff, city

to fill approximately 55 positions
as deputy sheriff at entrance
salaries of $1,800 per year, Auto-
matic retirements will bring the
deputy sheriff salaries to $2,399.99
after five years.
Because of the wide difference
in the deputy sheriff salaries and
the salary for which sheriff can-
didates took an examination, it is
expected that most of the accept-
ances for the deputy sheriff posi-
tions will come from the city mar-
shal and the P.D. No, 3 (special)
list,
Sheriff McCloskey told the
DER that he will show no
preference to eligibles on either
the city marshal list or the P.D, 3
list, He intends to treat both lists
equally.

Fire Boys In
A previous certification by the

ger to fill vacancies as special
patrolman in the Department of
Welfare was returned to the
Commission by Leo Arnstein,
first deputy Commissioner of
Welfare,
In his letter returning the at-
tendant messenger certification,
Commissioner Arnstein pointed
out that the physical qualifica-
tions for attendant messenger are
much less vigorous than the
physical qualifications for special
patrolman, He said that special
patrolmen are required to be five
feet, eight inches in height while
attendant messengers can be as
short as five feet, four inches, In
sharp contrast ure the physical
examinations for the two title:
Special patrolmen candidates
must lift 80-pound dumbbells
with each hand, attendant mes-
sengers, 40 pounds,
The Civil Service Commission
approved the return of the at-
tendant messenger certification
and decided, at its meeting last
week, to certify the new fireman
lst for the special patrolman
vacancies instead,

LONG WEEK
Fair Treatment
In War and Peace
Councilman Stanley M. Isaacs
this week declared that the city
owes its civil service employees
fair treatment in war as well as
peace and held that ‘nothing is
gained in time and efficiency" if
an amount of work necessitating
only five days a week work is
stretched into an unreasonable
six-day week.
Without putting it in so many
words, Councilman Isaacs called
upon the city to prove that the
new long week instituted on or-
ders of Mayor LaGuardia is nec-
essary.
He said that, in his opinion, civil
service workers are ‘only too
eager to give all their time and
energy to carry out their part in
the national emergency program,"
but he didn’t think they ought to
be taken advantage of, especially
when “they have extra defense
duties at night which they didn't
have before.”
Wants More Give-and-Take
Mr, Isaacs called for greater co-
operation between the heads of
city departments and workers, He
said that it would have been a
good idea if, before the long week
was put into effect, each depart-
ment head had discussed the situ-
ation with his employees, and that
they do so in the future if they
would keep up cordial relations,
He added that, in view of the
fact that wages for civil service
workers haven't kept up with the
rising cost of living, increasing
the length of the work week is
all the more unjustified unless the
city can show valid reasons for
the additional work hours for
many employees.

Dorothy Aita, one of the few
who filed for the typist, grade 1,
test, is taking the Civil Service
exam because it’s a ‘more secure
job." Dorothy, an experienced
typist, is 21 years old and lives
at 800 E, 175th Street, the Bronx,
Dorothy was graduated from
Haaren High School two years
ago.
Looks for Advancement
Loretta Tiernan, a clerk em-
ployed by W. T. Grant & Co,,
likes bookkeeping. That's why
she’s taking the clerk, grade 1,
test. After a year's experience as
a grade one clerk, she'll be able
to take promotion exams to better
paying bookkeeping and account-
ing positions, Loretta was gradu-
ated from Bishop McDonnell Me-

Harry Rosenfeld, an advertising
man of 948 Beck Street, the

Till June at Least
An examination for police
woman will not be ordered by the
Municipal Civil Service Commis-
sion until June or July of this
year, according to a decision
reached at the most recent meet-
ing of the Commission,
Last September, a suggestion
had been made by an examiner
on the Commission's staff to hold
one written test for both patrol-
man and patrolwoman, The writ-
ten test for patrolman is tenta-
tively scheduled for June. Be-
cause of the different problems
involved in the work of patrol-
men and policemen and the
large number of exams confront-
ing the Commission's staff at the
present time, the suggestion was
dropped. A separate test for po-
licewoman wilh be held in the
latter part of this year,
The present policewoman list
expires on February 15, 1943. Of
the 308 girls who passed the test,
111 have been appointed as police-
women, and correction officers.

sition, graduation from college
may be sufficient. For the em-
ployment interviewer position, one
year of specialized experience,
plus graduation from college may
be sufficient. The State allows a
combination of experience and
education, thus opening the exam
to persons who might be qualified
but unable to meet any rigid set
of requirements (full requirements
on page 15).
Wide Use of List
b. Increased use of list: The
persons who pass the examina-
tions are informed that they may
become eligible for federal jobs,
Says the announcement form:
“The names of eligibles on these
lists will be certified to the Fed-
eral Government for use in filling
positions in the federal service.
The eligible lists may be revised
by the Federal Government to
meet its regulations, especially
with regard to veterans’ prefer-
ence. Acceptance or refusal to
accept an offer of federal employ-
ment will not prejudice the right
of an eligible to certification from
those lists in the State service.””
c. Candidates may compete in
both tests, if they are eligible.
d. A promotion examination for
assistant interviewer will be held
at the same time as the open-
competitive exam, The law re-
quires that the resulting promo-
tion list of eligibles be used first
in making appointments, but of-
ficials expect that there will be
sufficient appointments so that
the open competitive list will be
used also, Temporary appoint-
ments will probably be filled from
the open-competitive list.
‘The assistant interviewer posi-
tion pays $1,200 to $1,700; the em-
ployment interviewer position
pays $1,800 to $2,300. Applications
are available at the Civil Service
Commission, State Office Build-
ing, Albany; or at the State Civil
Service Commission offices, 80
Center Street, New York City.
Filing 4s open until February 27.
Many Novel Schemes Proposed as Means
Of Raising State Employee Salaries -
ALBANY.—Although Governor
Lehman failed in his executive
budget to make any provision
for so-called “bonus” or “cost of
living” emergency pay increase
for State employees, Republican
legislative leaders have not re-
ceded from their public an-
nouncement that they intend to
provide additional compensation.
‘This was made plain today by
the fiscal chairmen of the two
houses, Senator Arthur H. Wicks
and Assemblyman Abbot Low
Moffat. The latter, chairman of
the Assembly Ways and Means
Committee, declined to be quoted
now that he disclosed that he
does hope to work out a scientific
“cost of living” bill that would
provide pay increases for the
majority of State Workers.
¥eld-Hamilton Increases
In submitting his fiscal plan,
minus the proposed ‘4var bonus"
features, the Governor pointed
out that his program includes
$1,500,000 for routine Feld-Hamil-
ton career law pay increases.
These range from $60 a year up
to $300 a year and more for every
employee covered by the Feld-
Hamilton act. The increases occur
each year until the employees

reaches the top salary of his
grade, and for most of them this
means at least two more steps,
two more increases. They have
already received three increments
since the law was adopted.
No Ifs or Buts
The ‘“war-bonus” plan, which
would provide a pay boost on top
of the Feld-Hamilton and other
increases,was first made public
before the opening of the 1942
legislative session when Senator
Joe R. Hanley, Speaker Oswald
B. Heck, and Senator Wicks
walked into the press room at the
Capitol and announced flatly that
State employees would get an
emergency pay rise this year.
There were no “ifs” or ‘buts"”
about the declaration. They told
the press to go ahead and say so
—and the press did,
Since the Governor's budget
makes no provision for the
$1,000,000, more or less required
to meet the proposed pay in-
creases, it will be up to the GOP
legislators to figure a way out.
‘They will not only have to agree
upon a pay increase plan—includ-
ing the percentage and to what
brackets it will apply — but they
will have to find the money.
Dip Into Surplus
The Governor's fiscal program
provides for a cash surplus on
June 30, this year of $15,000,000,
even after allowing a 25 per cent
reduction in the personal income
tax. But this plan also provides
for carrying over that surplus
into the next fiscal year, un-
touched, to form a reserve for a
similar income tax cut next year.
The Republicans might attempt
to dip into that surplus this year
—for pay increases—but this is
sure to arouse Mr. Lehman's
opposition and complaint from
him that the Legislature is up-
setting his tax-saving program.

He might accuse the Republicans
of “wrecking” his fiscal plan for
“political purposes.” After all,
there are 50,000 men and women
on the State payroll, including
those in the institutions, and most
of them are breadwinners and—
voters.
The smarter procedure, accord-
ing to some of the GOP leaders,
including Senator Wicks, may be
to find another way out—a way
by which the tax-saving can be
kept and the pay increase allowed,
all without upsetting the fiscal
apple-cart.
Sources of Revenue
This way lies toward further
cuts in the Governor's budget. If
the Republicans can slash $2,000,-
000 or $3,000,000 out of the budget
and pick up a couple of millions
somewhere, without imposing new
taxes, they'll be able to do the
trick. One of the untapped
sources of new revenue would
be to increase the State's share
of the pari-mutuel betting, A tax
of 10 per cent is now levied on
money bet at the race tracks, the
State getting 5 per cent of this,
the track the other 5 per cent.
Exponents of the plan feel it
would be simple to raise the
State's share to 7 or 7% per cent,
but that’s questioned.
Boosting the State's share of
the race track money plus a cut
in the budget seems, at the
moment, as one of the ways by
which the pay increases can be
realized, There are bills already
in the Legislature to raise the
State’s percentage of the race
track levy but the proceeds would
go to finance local defense costs
The GOP leaders may grab the
method but substitute the
purpose.
Numerous pay raise bills have
been introduced but the official
measures will come when Senator
Wicks and Assembly Moffat sub
mit their proposals. And they
will be withheld, probably, until
the leaders decide on just how
they will finance the cost.

provides for a 10 per cent periodic
increase for all salaries wate
$3,600 a year based upon living
cost data, The measure directs
the Governor to make 10 per cent
salary increases whenever the
cost of living index of the US Bu-
reau of Labor shows a boost of
15 per cent above the normal
mean of 100, which is the figure
as of July 1, 1940.

New Motor Bureau
Arthur H. Wicks, chairman of
the Senate Finance Committee,
today confirmed reports that the
Republicans in the Legislature in-
tend to make drastic cuts in Goy-
ernor Lehman's $380,000,000 bud-
get for 1942-43, beginning with the
new auto insurance bureau,
Senator Wicks indicated that
the reductions in this bureau
alone, for which $1,000,000 has
been set aside for the new fiscal

year, may be as great as one-third
or more.
‘This would mean that many of
the provisional appointees ni
holding jobs as evaluators and ad.
judicators at $2,500 to $3,500 a
year and more probably will
never achieve the stafus of por-
manent appointment.
PENSIONS
Bills to Protect
Pension Rights
ALBANY.—Legislation to pro-
tect the pension rights of more
than 100 employees of the divi-
sions of architecture and engi-
neering who will lose their jobs
July 1, is being drafted with the
probable approval of both the
legislative and executive branches
of the state government, Such
legislation may be designated to
affect not only those laid off be-
cause of budget cuts but those
employees of the DPUI who have
been transferred to federal em-
ployees in the shift of the Place-
ment Bureau to the US Employ-
ment Service.
Because of cuts in capital out-
lays for the ensuing fiscal year,
Public Works Department person-
nel is particularly hard hit.
It is proposed now that some
means be found to permit the dis-
charged employees, many with 10
to 15 years of service behind
them, to continue in the State Re-
tirement System through payment
of dual contributions, ‘The legis-
lation would be optional with the
individuals and would allow them
to continue both their own con-
tribution and those of the state,
thus perpetuating their pension
rights and benefits until such
time as they can return to state
employment,

NYC Defense Training Program—How It Works
The Board of Education this
week pointed out that those seek-

Replying to numerous reports
that applicants for defense train-
ing under the board aegis of the
Board of Education are com-
pelled to wade through miles of
yed tape, an official explained the
training enrollment procedure and
upon the Board’s
training plans, in answer to ques-
tions by a LI reporter.

Q. Suppose an individual wants
to take a Board of Education de-

he go about it?
A. The easiest way is to reg-

They'll classify you. ‘Then they'll

What are the problems of defense training? What needs to be done in order to train men and women
in time to keep pace with the demands of war production? These were the questions that came under
scurtiny Iast Sunday in a round table discussion originating over radio station WINS, from a
studio in the Mayflower Hotel, 61st Street and Central Park West, New York City. Participating
in the discussion were (left to right) Richard C. Brockway, New York State Director of the U.S.
Employment Service; Jerry Finkelstein, publisher of The LEADER, who acted as moderator;
Maxwell Lehman, executive editor of The LEADER; Lieut.-Commander Valentine,
U.S. Navy;
Lieut.Commander Hail, U.S. Naval Reserve; Albert C. Newman, Dean of Engineering, C.C.N.Y.,
and regional director of defense training courses for the U.S. Department of Education.
Points
made in the discussion: (1) There should be closer coordination of training facilities; (2) training
should be in terms of actual industrial needs;

scope of the individual's experl-

Education. If the employer sends
along a “green” hand, he or she
is referred first to U. S. E. 8. The
same goes for an employee sent
along by an employer in a non-
defense industry.
Q. How many persons are now
taking these courses offered by
the Board of Education?
A. For the week ending Decem-
ber 30, 1941, the total came to
10,270.
Q. What is the total capacity of
the Board of Education in this re-
spect?
A. The Board is expanding its
facilities as rapidly as possible. If
necessary, courses will even be
given on Saturdays and Sundays
to step up the pace. Starting
February 2, some ten courses
were thrown open to about 1,000
high school seniors who will be
graduated in June. The boys don’t
give up their regular school work
but take the courses on top of
their regular lessons.
Q. Is the Board of Education,
in these courses, being guided by
the needs of industry?
A. Certainly, The U. 8. E. S.
has scouts In industry who keep
us posted on what Is deemed
necessary.
Q. What percentage of trained
people does the Board of Educa-
tion place?
A. The Board doesn’t place
people. That's the job of Employ-
ment Service, They pick up when
we finish, and place enrollees in
available defense training jobs.
The percentage constantly varies,
Q. Is any special consideration
being given those who have lost
their jobs’ through priorities
orders?
A. Congress is now considering
legislation to create training pro-
grams for such persons.
QHow about the women? Is
there any further move to furnish
courses for them?
A. Frankly, the Board of Edu-
cation is inaugurating tr#ining
courses for women in restricted
areas for specific jobs requested
by employers, The training of
in general—while under
consideration—has not yet by
proved feasible because the ab-
sorptive city of industry for
women trained or untrained is
not what it is for men. It is un-
fair to the women to train them
nd then have them find that
they cannot obtain jobs because
employers prefer men and can
still get men. This situation ex-
ists mainly for the protection of
women themselves.
Q. Can unions in non-defense
industries refer their unemployed
for training?
A. Congressional legislation now
being considered will take care of
that question.
Q. What training opportunities
are there for men over 40?
A. There is no maximum age
limit set on applicants. The min-
imum age is 1734.
Q. What can be done to help
this man? He is registered with
the U.S. E.S. He applied to the
Board of Education to take a de-
fense training course. He was
told he would have to apply to the
U.S. ES. He phoned the US.ES.
and they informed him they
couldn't do a thing for him unless
he already had training in a de-
fense occupation. He replied that,
if he had the training, he would
not need them. He wanted to
know how he could get the train-
ing. They answered, “Nothing we
do.”
A. This apparently was an an-
swer from somebody entirely in.
experienced in the setup. It could
happen in any business. The
truth fs that such an individual
can be placed ina defense train.

Q. How do you square the at.
titude of the Board of Education
about limited opportunities wit:
the consant releases from We
ingon saying: ‘We need more
men and women to train for the
war industries.””
A. Here in New York City the
situation «Is far different from
that in much of the rest of the
country. New York is not a heavy
industry town, strictly speaking;
it is principally a commercial cen.
ter, The country as a whole has
the industrial outlets for the help
now greatly needed.

sons desiring defense training or,
having procured it, find 1t dil-
ficult to land jobs. If you have
any such complaint, please write
to Editor, Defense Page, Civil

what the difficulties are and
what bottlenecks exist in train-
ing, to the end that suggestions

Young Air Cadets
A momentous event took placo
last week with the formation of
Air Training Cadets of America, a
volunteer pre-flight organization
open to youths 16 to 18. The plan,
which immediately engaged tho
interest and support of teachers,
was devised to prepare young
men for aviation careers—to train
them early, and give them solid
grounding in every phase of avia-
tion except actual flying. Tho
young men who participate will
learn navigation, instruments,
map-reading, aviation mechanics,
When they are 18, it is expected
that they will provide competent
material for America’s future ait
corps, both for war and for peace,
Air Cadets of America will train
after school hours and possibly
during their summers, They will
be provided with appropriate uni+
forms. Leaders of the new group
expect to train young men in
“units"—each unit consisting of
approximately 50 boys. It is an+
ticipated that units will be organ-
ized in the high schools, Physical
examinations will be provided to
weed out those who are clearly,
unfit to be flyers,
Heading up the new organiza.
tion are Dr, Ben D. Wood, pro-
fessor of Collegiate Research at

Bring "Em to NYC
“T) ECENTRALIZATION” is a word that wor-
MEMBER, AUDIT £
ties Washington employees. It refers to the
exodus of governmental agencies from Wash-
ington to points all over the country.
There isn’t enough space in the capital to house all
the new agencies and the workers who must man them.
But distributing agencies all over the map is hardly an
efficient way of running the government.
The solution is obvious. New York City must be-
come the nation’s second capital. It is that in fact now,
if not inname. The controls over vast areas of finance,
production, planning, and government are centered in
the city, Communication between Washington and New
York is comparatively rapid. The housing situation in
New York City is no problem at all—there is plenty of
office space throughout Manhattan, plenty of housing in
all the boroughs.
The ideal solution is to bring the agencies that must
leave Washington into New York, where they can be
together, and continue functioning through close contact
with one another, It would mean least dislocation, most
efficiency.
Why Another
Attendant Test?
ELL, New York State has ordered another
hospital attendant test. This makes the fourth
in a period of less than two years.
This merry-go-round is getting to be preposterous.
The business of holding exams over and over isn't going
to provide enough attendants, Everybody knows that
the mental hygiene department can't fill the jobs because
the pay is low, because attendants are resigning in
droves to take better jobs in private industry, and be-
cause several of the hospitals are run like private feudal
systems, Morale is astonishingly low.
The situation isn’t going to be improved so long as
employees are expected to live on $54 to $66 a month
(plus maintenance), and to maintain families on such
wages, There's no point in holding tests over and over
again—the big point is to improve working conditions

Says he: ‘My most solemn duty is

QUESTION, PLEASE
Can You Get
Pay Difference?
L.B.: If you join the Naval Re-
serve, you will not be entitled to
the payment of the difference in
your military and city pay. Only
city employees who joined ho
serve and National Guard out-
fits before these organizations
were federalized are entitled to
the salary differentials under see
tion 245 of the State military law
Although it is strictly a local
draft board matter, we doubt if
you would be reclassified from 3A
to 1A because of your dependents.
Probational Indefinite
—What Does it Mean?
N.M,: A probational indefinite
appointment in the federal service
js the equivalent of a probational
(permanent) appointment, except
that the probational indefinite ap-
pointment is usually made to @
position for which there has not
always been a budget appropri
tion, Most of the federal posi-
tions being filled in defense agen-
cies today are paid for out of
emergency funds, The length of
time for which Congress will con-
tinue to appropriate money for
these positions is not known,
Consequently appointments are
made on a probational indefinite
basis.
A person appointed to a proba-
tional indefinite position has the
same rights and privileges as a
person appointed to a probational
(permanent) position, He has va-
cation rights and privileges. He
is included in the federal retire-
ment system, After six months
of employment he has the privil-
ege of requesting a transfer or of
participating in promotion exami-
nations, When his period of em-
ployment is over, he may request
that his name be placed on a re-
amployment list and he has the
privilege of reinstatement to a
vacancy in his title,

Improving Your Reasoning
The Ninth of a Series of Articles on Proper
Preparation for Civil Service Examinations
“By Gertrude B, Slavin, B.S., M.A., and Alvin Slavin, B.A., M.A.
Bureau heads of all government departments are constantly
searching for persons who possess the ability to meet new situations
persons who can readily adapt themselves to unfamiliar problems
in short, who have the ability to think clearly.
It is for this reason that nearly all Civil Service examinations
include questions which test the candidate's judgment, reasoning, and
power of analysis, We indicated in last week's article on REASON-
ING TECHNIQUES the type of questions which test the candidate's
judgment and his ability to come to proper conclusions when faced
with @ series of facts, There is still another form of testing, always
popular with clyil service examiners, which may indicate a cendi-
date’s ability to recognize the degree of logical relationships in vary-
ing factors of problems. These questions determine your power of
analysis and likewise demonstrate your ability to think clearly. ‘They
are often referred to in civil service testing as Analogy problems.
Here is an example of a typical analogy question:
IDLE is to BUSY as ABSENCE is to (1) alone (2)
willingness (3) presence (4) sadness (5) dismissal.
The problem presented seeks the identical relationship that
ABSENCE bears to any one of the five alternatives listed possessing
the same degree of relationship between IDLE and BUSY. What is
the specific relationship between these two words? An unalysis of
the meaning of both indicates that they are opposite in meaning. Our
next step is to select from the choices listed one that is opposite in
meaning to the word ABSENCE. Naturally the only choice possible
is PRESENCE. The complete answer then would read:
. IDLE is to BUSY as ABSENCE is to PRESENCE.
The Analogy in civil service tests is similar to the ratio problem
in Arithmetic, For example: 2 is to 4 as & is to (1) 9 (2) 12 (3) 14
(4) 15 (5) 16. ‘The answer is obviously 16. Once you establish the
relationship between the first two members of an analogy, it is rela~
tively simple to discover the fourth member that is paired with the
third,
‘The Analogy questions resolve themselves into several different
types, ‘The first example given above denotes a relationship ot
oppositeness,
Another type of relationship might be one of similarity:
EXIT is to DEPARTURE as EXPENDITURE is to (1)
Budget (2) Disbursement (3) Fiscal (4) Entrance 5) Savings.
The rolationship between EXIT and DEPARTURE is one of
sameness, Therefore the word DISBURSEMENT is the correct choice
because it is synonymous with the word EXPENDITURE.
Another relationship might be one of function:
ARMY js to WAR as GOVERNMENT is to (1) Peace
(2) Navy (3) Forestation (4) Rule (5) Freedom.
Once more we determine that the relationship between ARMY
and WAR is one of function; that is, the purpose or function of an
ARMY is a design for WAR. Then the most logical choice for the
second group is 4) RULE, for to rule is the function of GOVERN-
MENT.
Still another form of relationship is one of character:
COPPER is to SOLID as OXYGEN js to (1) Purity (2)
Air (3) Tank (4) Hydrogen (5) Gas.
The relationship between COPPER and SOLID fs one of charac-
ter; that is, COPPER is in substance a solid. Therefore, the fifth
choice GAS is the correct answer, because the character of OXYGEN
is a gas.
There are numerous types of analogy relationships that cannot
be classified. If the candidate will follow the methods anulyzed
above, he will be able to determine the various relationships in a simi-
Jar manner and arrive at the correct conclusion,
The important rule to remember in answering an Analogy ques-
tion is to determine the specific relationship of the first two mem-
bers of the Analogy, and then choose the word given in the alterna-
tives with a similar relationship to the third member of the Analogy.
Test your Analogy reasoning by answering the following ques-
tions:
EXERCISE XIV
1, REMUNERATIVE is to PROFITABLE as FRAUDU-
LENT is to (1) liar (2) slander (3) false (4) plausible
(5) reward.
2, AX is to WOODSMAN as AWL js to (1) cut (2) hew (3)
plumber (4) pierce (5) cobbler.

His most prized possession is
recognized impartiality that has ex-
isted throughout his surveys, he
contends. He is delighted when all
parties concerned in a case accept
his decision as downright fair,
Started Young
The assistant deputy comptrol-
ler's boyhood ambition was to be a
lawyer; then it became a specific
desire to be a labor lawyer. For
he was quite active in debating
throughout his schooling. He was
a member of the Boys’ Debating
Team in 1915—the team that won
the high school championship that
year; he was captain of the Uni-
versity of Michigan debating squad
in 1918, the year he received the
Gray medal for distinction in or-
atory.
Mr. Paris is currently the fiscal
officer designated by law to sit in
the quasi-judicial proceeding in-
volving the setting up of a prevail-
ing wage rate in the cases of a
considerable number of the city’s
per diem workers, cases that have
been hanging fire for some time
now.
Mr. Paris is particularly jealous
of guarding his integrity in the
prevailing pay proceedings. ‘Mine
is of necessity a dual role,’’ ho
points out, in referring to the fact
that he represents the city as a
tant deputy comptroller and 1s
sitting in as a legally constituted
judge at the same time, ‘But let
me tell you something—nobody can
say that Morris Paris can't see
both sides of a situation involving
workers and employers.’’

Bre sate Cy,
By Joseph Burstin
Films of the Week
With ‘Joan of Paris’ on its
schedule, the RIVOLI THEATRE
has achieved a startling success,
This picture from Nazi Occupied-
France tells the touching story of
a simple young Paris girl, who be-
comes a hero in helping the man
she loves (a shot down ‘Free
French” flier) to escape. She
sacrifices herself for France, the
true France which will never
perish.
A beautiful tale, superbly acted
by Michele Morgan, a French
actress, who makes her debut in
an American film with this pie-
ture, Paul Henreid (we saw him
last in ‘Night Train”) plays the
part of the flier with great charm
and talent, Thomas Mitchell is a
wonderful Father Antoine, while
Laird Cregar and Alexander
Granach play their Gestapo parts
convincingly, A great thriller no-
body should miss.
Preston Sturges runs true to
form again with his new picture
“Sullivan's Travels,” at the New
Panade
York PARAMOUNT THEATRE,
The story is new and fresh, a bit
on the fantastic side, but never-
theless entertaining. The leading
characters, John L, Sullivan as
the picture director, and the girl,
are ably brought to life by Joel
McCrea and Veronica Lake.
The story concerns a Hollywood
director, successful for his sla:
stick comedies, who has aspira-
tions for making a picture with a
moral, from the book “Brother,
Where Art Thou.” In order to
become more acquainted with the
story which has to do with Hobos
and Bindlestiffs, he journeys into
the world dressed as a typical
tramp. In his travels he meets
Veronica Lake, the girl who
didn’t make good in Hollywood.
The ensuing sequences and scenes
have the audiences rollicking with
laughter. Both Joel McCrea and
Veronica Lake turn in grand per-
formances,
The ever popular Glenn Miller
and his boys, and comedians Lor-
raine and Rogan hold forth on
the stage.

U. S. Explains
Retirement Bill
(Continued from Page Two)
employees are exempt from any
automatic separation age.
3. ‘The rate of contributions to the
retirement fund is increased from
Si percent to 9 percent of the em-
ployee's salary for all service be-
ginning with July 1, 1942.
4. Federal employees attaining the
age of 70 after serving at
years are automatically
for retirement purposes’ unle
tinued by executive order.
Provision for automatic retirement
does not apply to elective officers
and certain employees in the legis-
lative and judicial branches of the
Government,
5. Members of the retirement sys-
tem may retire at the age. of 60
after 30 years of service. This pro-
vision for optional retirement may
be exercised either by the employee
or by the head of the employing
agency. If exercised by the em-
ploying agency, such action may be
taken only if the employee is dis-
qualified to perform satisfactorily
and efficiently the duties of his po-
sition. The act provides that this
option may not be exercised in the
case of elective officers, employees
in the legislative branch, or em-
loyees of the Architect of the
Capitol. If the employee desires,
he may appeal the action of th
employing agency to the Civil Serv.
ice Comm and the Commis.
sion’s dec: whether the
employee shall be retired at the re-
quest of the agency will be final.
6. Employees who have completed
30 years of serv may, upon
Teaching the age of 55, voluntarily
retire on a reduced annuity.
7. The act establishes a
method of computing annuities,
stipulating that the benefit shall in
no case be less than an amount
equal to the employee's highest
average basic salary for five con-
secutive years of service, multiplied
by the number of years’ of service,
not exceeding 36 years, and divided
by 70. This is merely supplemen-
tary to and does not change any
of the previous methods of compu-
tation, and it will in no case reduce
the annuity otherwise payable un-
der the previous provisions of the
new
act. This amendment is in accord
with the principles recommended by,
the President's Committee on Civil
Service Improvement of which Jus-
tice Stanley Reed was chairman,
8 The act provides that any em-
ployee separated after serving at
Jeast five years shall be paid a
deferred annuity beginning at age
62, If the separation is involun-
tary, not by removal for cause on
charges of misconduct or delin-
quency, the employee may elect ta
receive an immediate annuity be-
ginning at age 55 (or at date of
separation if subsequent to that
age), having a value equal to the
deferred annuity at age 62,
9. An employee who is trans-
ferred to a position not within the
ly separated from
vice after serving
years, may receive
a refund of the sum Credited to his
individual account with interest. If
such a separation is involuntary
and not by removal for cause on
charges of misconduct or delin-
quency, total deductions with in-
terest are returnable

Over 48,000 candidates filed ap-

and typist, grade 1, examinations
last month. The clerk test open
to high school graduates with no
previous experience attracted 31,-
408 applicants, while the typist
exam drew 16,640 candidates.
The dates for these two exam!-
nations were not set by the Civil
Service Commission as THE
LEADER went to press. Tenta-
tive plans call for both tests to
be held in the spring, probably
some time in April, This would
