FDR EASES DRAFT RULES

ATHERS

WASHINGTON—Here’s
big news for Government
men who are fathers,
President Roosevelt has is-
sued an order saying that
U. 8S. Government fathers
should get exactly the
same treatment in the
draft as non-government
fathers. This reverses pre-
vious White House policy,
and means there will be a
large increase in the num-
ber of Federal workers to
be deferred for occupation-
al reasons, The President’s
order was contained in a
letter to War Manpower
Chairman Paul McNutt,

It instructed him to issue
regulations to put the order in
effect immediately. Outside
government, draft boards have
been much more liberal with
father deferments than_ with
non-father deferments, Inside
government, however, White
House has insisted that agencies
follow the same rigid policy on
occupational father deferments
as on non-father deferments,

Agency committees must con
tinue to pass on all deferments
requested. However, the Presi-
dent’s order gives them much
wider lattitude to retain men
really needed.

City Employees Bitterly Protest Inadequacy of Mayor's

By JEROME YALE

“Another two bucks a
week, and then he has the
nerve to hand us overtime
work without extra pay”.
That's the angry response of
City employees to the Ma-
yor’s “cost - of - living” in-
ereases.

The great majority of City em-
ployees still haven't been told
precisely where they stand in re-
gard to the pay plan. The Mayor,
as one employee said, “maybe to
get listeners to his Sunday broad-
casts”, has been announcing the
increases department by “fepart-
ment,

At press time such large depart-
ments as Hospitals and Health
and Parks were still waiting to
hear, what's doing with them,

“Maybe he can force the Police
and Fire Departments into longer
hours by yelling “emergency” but
that won't work for us”, said one
clerical worker in the Municipal
Building.

Some of the more explosive
thinkers around the municipal
offces were taking about the re-
cent strike of public workers in
Montrea,

“Can you imagine”, said one
impulsive clerk “what would
happen if 146,000 New York City
employees suddenly decided to
get. sick the same day?”,

Nothing like that will happen
in New York, if course, but em-
ployeee groups are talking of
other action,

Organizations Bitter

Civil employee. organizations
were equally bitter
ment
with longe

The State, County and Municipal
Workers of America, CIO, says it
will fight the Mayor's inc
on several different fronts, The
union has gained the support of
the Community Councils of the
CIO which is helping in the dis-
tribution of half a million leaflets
explaining the City worker's need
for more money to meet inflated
living costs, and the unfairness
of forcing him to work longer
hours.

Petitions addressed to the Mayor
are being circulated among City
employees, asking that the pay-
plan of the SCMWA be put into
effect.

The SCMWA says that 20,000
post cards will be sent to the
Mayor from the public asking n
consideration of the proffered in-
crease,

The union also intends a large
scale advertising campaign to
bring the plight of the City
worker before the public; also
planned for the near future are
mass meetings to discuss the
problems which are facing the
City’s staff of civil service work-
ers,

Insufficient, Says AFL

Looking at the present situation
from a long-range point of view,
the AFL civil employees union,
the America Federation of State
County and Municipal Employees,
made the following statement:

“We consider the present raise
not sufficient to meet the in-
creased cost of living, but we
realize that it had to be within
the limits of accruals within the
present budget,

“We are working for permanent
improvements in the 1944-45 bud-
get which will will control the
earnings of City employees for a
year after June 30, 1944,”

The Civil Service Forum is
equally bitter against the pay rise.
The Forum favored the 15 percent
pay rise resolution passed by City
Council, which would have meant
an increase for all City employees
eiving up to $5,000,

Among the other groups ex-
pressing dissatisfaction with the
present setup is the Correction Of-
ficers Benevolent Association, As
‘a spokesman for this group
plained, “We're not out to take
anything from anyone, but we
want what we're entitled to.” Fred
M. Ahearn, attorney for the as-
sociation, is presenting to Comp-
troller McGoldrick the organiza-

240 W. 55th S!
Phone COlumbu:

tion’s requests for a series of
graduated increases for men in
their force receiving up to $3,000.
There are numerous variations
within the new pay raise plan,
but in general, as pointed out in
last week’s LEADER, these condi-
tions prevail:

Employees earning $2,500 or less
are to receive an increase of $120
a year—about $2.31 a week. Em-
ployees earning between $2,500
and $4,000 receive an addition of
$240—or about $4.60 a week.
Higher paid workers are in line
for $350. Members of the Police
and Fire Department receive $420
a year (see story on page 9).
Nurses in the Hospitals Depart-
ment were awarded $150 a year by
the Mayor, and the new schedule
went into effect on December 1
for them, However, in many spe-
cific instances, the precise amount
of raise hasn’t yet been worked
out, Per diem employees may ex-
pect another 50 cents a day,

An employee who has received
a merit raise will not be included
among those benefitting from the
new increases, unless the increase
is greater than his merit raise,
in which case he will receive the
difference between the two sums,
Thus, for example, suppose Joe
Jones had been earning $2600 and
had received a $100 merit increase
three months ago, bringing him
up to $2700. Persons in his wage-
group are entitled to $240 in-
creases, but Joe would only get an
additional $140, because he had
al dy received his merit raise
thre months ago. In this way,
recent merit raises are in effect
wiped out.

There will be no pension deduc-
tions from the new raise. Only
deductions are for taxes, The new
raise is not a part of the per-
manent salary. It is a “bonus.”
Checks containing the new pay
rate won't get out, in most cases
until February 1 or February 15.
However, the pay raise begins on
January 1, 1944, and no matter
when checks go out, the raise is
retroactive to that date,

Here's What's
Left of Pay Raise

You may, if you are a city em-
ployee, be scheduled for a bonus,
but that doesn't mean you can
count on getting the whole
amount mentioned in the raise
you're scheduled to receive,

'The biggest bite will come from
the withholding tax. Unless you
have a half dozen children around
the house, you can figure that
about 20 per cent of the amount
you are granted will go into Uncle
Sam's pocket.

No Pension Deductions

On the other hand, word is that
no pension deductions will be
made from this bonus. When the
Icst bonus was given on July 1,
1943, the amount was subject to
ion fund deductions, This
time, the bonus will be exempt.

From one point of view this is
good ne’ Tt means a few dol-
dollars a month more in cash to
meet the higher cost of living,

But, when you make a contri-
bution to the pension fund, the
City also has to put in dough,
By exempting yor bonus, the City
saves itself plenty of cash.

To figure out what your taxes
will come to under the bill which
is now in Congress, divide your
bonus by 24, Add that sum to
your present salary, and look
yourself up on the chart on this
page according to your family
status. Remember that this bill is
still pending. Congress may make
| changes, .

Waivers—
Or No Dough

The City Civil Service Com-
mission last week was cutting red
tape to allow employees now re-
ceiving top salaries of their grade
to obtain the bonus.

In order to receive the bonus,
such employees will be required to
sign a waiver in which they state
that they are receiving a bonus,
and will not use the fact that they
are earning a higher salary than
the civil service law allows as a
claim for a higher title in the
City service.

This is similar to the action
which wa’ taken to clear the way
for the July bonus last summer.

If you're a City, State or Fed-
eral employee, place the LEAD-
ER on your MUST list. Every

issue has something you can't
afford to miss,

Different Pay

Some of the assistant foremen
in the Department of Sanitation
are unhappy these days. They
look around and see that other
men doing the same job that they
are doing are earning less money,
The assistant foremen who are
getting the smaller paychecks are
even unhappier about it.

This is what happened,

Assistant foremen who were
promoted since the July 1 bonus
were put on the payroll at their
regular salary, and didn’t get the
additional bonus pay,

Now with the new increase, they
are still getting unequal salaries.

The American Federation of
State County and Municipal Em-
ployees, AFL, has requested an
adjustment to bring all the sal-
aries into line.

Assistant Foremen in Sanitation
are appointed at $2,280 a year,

pefore That Extra Pay Finds Its Way
nfo Your Purse, Here's What Happens

The City pay raise-bonus will go into effect on January 1, 1944, but getting the
xtra money into the City employees’ pockets won’t happen that quickly. The red-tape
hat has to be untied before the money can be distributed will take until about the
iddle of February or the end of March. At that time, a supplementary payroll will
e distributed, which will bring the salaries up to date. After that the new amount
The alternative would have been two or three skipped pay-

How Much Overtime?

In his first announcement of
the fact that City employees would
be given a bonus, Mayor La
Guardia stated that they could
look forward to longer work hours,

Most City departments are on a
six-day week now. That is, they
are officially on the six-day basis,
In effect, the department keeps a
skeleton force on hand in case
the phone should ring on Satur-
day afternoon, At the Municipal
Building, for instance, a visit on
Saturday afternoon means a long
wait for an elevator, then a vista
of deserted corridors and quiet
Offices.

If the Mayor comes out with a
definite program of enforced over-
time (which he hasn’t as yet),
chances are that each department
head will loudly issue orders to
obey the Boss, then promptly for-
get the whole matter, It may
mean that from time to time,
employees will have to share the
honor of working a “skeleton” on
Sundays.

At present, overtime is repaid
by time-off in theory, Much
of the present overtime neces~
sary to perform the work of em-
ployees on military leave, and
there is no opportunity to take
the earned time,

They Joke About It

In Welfare, for instance, one
employee has figured out that she
has piled up over 300 hours of
extra work, Budget Bureau and
Comptroller's office employees are
beginning to take the overtime for
granted around payroll time, and
joke about all the hours that they
may collect some day.

The only City” departments
which have actually worked out
overtime - bonus schedules are
Police and Fire (see page 9).
Other department heads are either
still gethering the information
which must be handed to the
Mayor before he will announce the
bonus for the departmerst, or wait-
ing for the Mayoral edict.

set their own staff salaries (sub-
ject to Board of Estimate ap-
proyal) because their payrolls do
not come from City funds, They
will probably follow the City policy
on increases, but are waiting till
they can tell what the Mayor's
policy is, They haven't even
stopped to consider the overtime
angle in connection with the
bonus.
Not Thinking About It
A survey of City departments
by The LEADER this week in-
dicates that (with the exception
of Police and Fire) not a single
one has even begun thinking
about more overtime, The reaction
most. officials was (1) em-
ployees are already working over-
time when needed—and probably
that will be enough; (2) they don't
intend to do anything further un-
less definite instructions come
down from the Mayor's iffice.
One official in the Department o1
Water Supply, Gas and Electricity
said he considered that now em-
ployees would have to work what-
tver overtime is necessary, but

wouldn’t be entitled to time-off.
He made it clear he was merely

partment, drivers and sweepers

pay in return for their in .
‘They work, on the average, 9 or
10 Sundays a year, This means
that their increase, $100 a year,

amount—or less,

General impression among of-

have to work out a special over-
time program, Many depart~-
ments, especially the purely cleri-
cal ones like Finance, feel it would
only be a headache all around,
with nothing gained,

Probably what will happen is

GENERAL STAFF

If You Plan to Write

City Commission —
The Information Bureau of
the City Civil Service Commis-
sion wishes that the people who
write in would keep some reso-
lutions to make the job of
answering mail a bit simpler,

Here are their suggestions for
1944;

1, Write your return address
on the letter, Sometimes the
envelopes go astray.

2, Give your number on the
list, or your final average on
an examination when writing
in about a list you're on or an
exam you've taken, This makes
it easier to locate you in the
books.

3. Make it clear whether
you're working for the City,
whether youre on a negligible
list, or have filed an applica-
tion for an examination.

4, Print your signature if the
letter is handwritten. The busi-
ness of guessing at names
doesnt amuse the staff.

5, Remember that the Muni-
cipal Civil Service Commission
only has to do with City jobs.
Don't write in to ask questions
about State and Federal mat-
ters,

TRANSFERS
Does This Begin
A New Trend?

The City seems to be letting
employees shift around to where
they can do the most good for
themselves and their work,

John J, Cascell, a clerk, grade
2, in the Police Department, was
given a leave of absence from that
Job to work as a provisional field
auditor in the Comptroller's Of-
fice,

In Sanitation, Raymond J. Tou-
sell, Sanitation Man “C,” was
given leave to take a position as
a tugboat captain for the City,
also on a provisional basis,

The LEADER has often pointed
out that a tendency for “pooling”
City employees exists among a
number of City officials who argue
that this represents an efficient
way to utilize manpower, There
have been rumors, also, that with
the establishment of the new
bonus, an endeavor might be made
to “shift” employees where they
could be most useful, within their
grades and titles, regardless of
department,

made on the battlefields of the
land, air and sea,

“The Commission has noted with
serious concern the tendency of
some individuals, groups and
media to hang upon Government
workers in general such labels as

equally vicious, untrue, and un-
fair,
“While the Commission knows

that there are among Govern-
ment workers a few persons to
whom such labels could legiti-
mately refer, as would be the case
in any group of more than 3,000,-
000 citizens, it feels that to create
the impression that these are ac-

The department has found that Incentives—in the form of ribbons, commendations, and

service for the department itself. Looks to us like the WD has something good hore—

EXAMS
Grade 3 Rating
Almost Finished

The rating of papers on the
New York City Clerk Grade 3
promotion examination will be
finished in about a week, accord-
ing to estimates of the Municipal
Civil Service Commission's Exap-
ining Division,

No definite date has been set.
for the second part of the exami-
nation, which deals with depart-
mental functions, However, at the
speed with which the papers are
presently being graded, it appears
not improbable that the second
part of the test will be held in
the second or third week of Feb-
ruary,

52 Departments

An enormous quantity of work
is involved in manufacturing the
second section of the examination,
because separate forms must be
worked out for each department,
and 52 separate departments have
employees participating in the ex
amination, Preliminary work has
already begun in the construction
of the departmental tests; and
members of the examining staff
are in communication with the
individual departments to deter-
mine the precise nature of the
activities in which grade 3 clerks
engage. In addition to the 52
departments have “promotion
units,” groups of employees who
work at special types of jobs, and
these must be given separate ex-
aminations,

How Well?

‘The Examining Division is more
conservative than was Commis-
sioner Esther Bromley in its view
of the quality of performance on
the first part of the examination,

Mrs, Bromley had said that a
mpling of papers showed that
candidates were doing “well”; the

Examining Staff won't go above
fairly well'—and even qualifies
this by admitting “They're doing
no worse than emploeeys have
done on similar tests during the
past 50 yea

The first section of the exami-
nation, held on Saturday, Novem-

ber 13, had been so heavily criti-
cized that demands have come
through for a drastic 1 ling
of the examination, or even
throwing it out altogether, The

Commission won't take the latter
action; however, statements by
Commission officials do not rule
out the former action, Before a
r ling can be consummated,
(re-scaling means adding a cer-
tain number of points to each
contestant's grade) all the papers
must be graded first, says the
Examining Division. The bare
passing grade is 70 percent, If re-
scaling comes, passing could be
reduced to 60 percent, and all
receiving that grade or better
might have a given number of
points (say 10) added to the total
grade),

Clerk Grade 4

No news. Marking of papers
hasn’t begun, The Municipal Civil
Service Commission is wrestling
with the Clerk Grade 3 headache
fi

ernment employees as a group
verges on criminal libel. Such
sweeping allegations are not only
unfair but operate definitely to
sabotage the war program by
seriously affecting the movale of
workers who are engaged in criti-
cal war production,”

7. Mr. Abram Becker, now di-
rector of Division of Emergency
Welfare Services.

All other assignments, says the
notice from Commissioner Leo
Arnstein, will remain unchanged,

These Are the Kicks

Some of the specific kicks
against the new assignments
heard around the Welfare offices
are these:

Social workers are being put
into jobs calling for experienced
office administrators, and vice-
versa,

Some of the best workers in
the department have _ been
shunted into blind-alley jobs,

Civil service standing has been
ignored. For instance, Vivian
Mason, still on sick leave after
her injuries in a railroad wreck
on Labor Day, has been moved
down and placed under Miss
Authier, who was below her on
the Civil service list.

Still Unsettled

Among unsettled matters on the
employess-administration agenda
of the Welfare Department:

1, Reclassifiication of “labor
firemen” in the department to
“handymen” which would give
these workers competitive status
and yearly increments,

2, Opening of the “promotion
to special patrolman” examina-
tion to clerical employers of Wel-
fare.

3. Use of the Stenographer,
grade 3 promotion list in the de-
partment, The SCMWA has asked
that case supervisor's sec
office manager's secretaries
head typists be promoted to the
grade 3 group.

More Appointments

4, More appointments from the
Junior Accountant promotional
list. Ten appointments may be
made to present vacancies,

5, Filling provisional IBM oper-
ators’ jobs with regular civil serv-
ice workers.

6, Action to correct the line-
count situation for the transcrib-
ing typists. Employees are begin-
ning to feel that the administra-
tion is stalling on this matter,

7. Opportunities for in-service
training should be made available
to the clerical staff, similar to
the setup under which social
worker's are given an opportunity
to study for advancement on of-
fice time,

Recent conferences between E-
dith Alexander, director of staff
relations, and representatives of
Local 1, State County and Muni-
cipal Workers of America, CIO,
have highlighted these personnel
problems which face Welfare De-
partment as 1944 opens.

Test Question
Thrown Out

The City Civil Service Commis-
sion last week threw one question
out of the examination for Promo-
tion to Structure Maintainer,
Group E, IND, BMT, and IRT,
which was held on July 1, 1943.

The Question, number 26, Part
a, reads as follows:

‘Give a lubricant suitable for
threading

(A) lead pipe

(B) Copper pipe”
The examining division felt that
“lead pipe” was included in er-
ror, and recommended that the
question be thrown out, and all
candidates receive full credit re-
gardless of their answer, This
was done,

DWSGE Jive

Department of Water Supply,
Gas and Electricity has its own
form of double talk. In the
current issue of the “Siphon,”
monthly publication of the En-
gineering Club of WSGE, ap-
pears the following in the re-
Port on a lecture;

“One very interesting item of
the lecture was the venturi tube
whose approach to its throat
is parabolic instead of comical
as that of the ordinary venturi
tube, Mr, Sowden explained
the advantages of this type of
venturi tube over the conical
type.”

And thoy understand this,

ten test will be given on March
15, 1944, Another filing period
will be announced in January or
February,

How the New Pay
System Works

By January 1, 1944, the BMT
employees will get their paychecks
telling them just where they stand
each month, and that will cop-
plete the change-over for the en-
tire Board of Transportation.

Here's how the new paycheck
system works:

gets a stub. On these stubs are
spaces for the following informa-
tion: regular salary, acting earn-
ings or other allowances, On the
subtraction side of the stub are

listed: pension deduction, gar-
nishees, Federal Tax, State tax,
garnishees (if ‘any) and even

“Family Court”.

If there are still any questions
in the employee's mind, he can
sign this stub and turn it in to
his supervisor. Then it is sent
to the Investigation Bureau of the
Payroll office, and the employee;
gets a written explanation. If
the transit worker still isn’t clear |
on the matter, he can come into |
the Payroll Office and have it ex-
plained to him.

Used to be Different

Formerly, each division of the
Subways had its own way of mak- |
ink out checks, The IRT and
IND lines used check machines
and gave no detailed statement.
The BMT used to give a hand-
written account with the check.

Before the BMT was taken over
by the City, its checks used to
contain all this information, but
when the City took over the cus-
tom was dropped.

The Transport Workers Union
had requested the installation of
this setup in order to keep the
men clear in the maze of deduc-
tions, Social Security, payments,
withholding tax, Victory tax, etc,

HOSPITALS
You Must Wait
For Increase

Hospital employees are still
wondering what 'the salary in- |
crease after the first, of the year
will mean to them. Other de-
partments have submitted their
schedules of raises to the Mayor,
and the workers have learned just |
how they will fare,

‘The delay, the department ex~
plains, is caused by the complex
set-up in Hospitals which has de-
layed the report to City Hall, In
this department, there are 221
different job-titles. There are 28

So it is important news when
the Civil Service Comission rec-
ommends that those who leave
the service be given the chance
to convert their Federal Em-
ployees Retirement System insur=
ance into Social Security insur-
ance.

Several months ago, the Civil
Service LEADER reported that
such a recommendation was in
the making. It actually came in
the Commission's annual report,
which went to Congress last week.

The Commission said, emphati-
cally, that it is opposed to placing
the Federal Employees Retire-
ment System under Social Secu-
rity, It pointed out that this sys-
tem was set up to “make Govern-
ment employment more attractive
and to be an important com-
ponent of the career service,”

However, it said that the vast
increase in the number of per-
sons covered by the item—an
increase from a pre-war total of
less than 1,000,000 to 2,750,000—
had raised serious problems.

One of these, it said, is the
problem of protecting the Social
Security rights of the many Fed-
eral workers who had Social Se-
curity insurance before they en
tered Government.

The other problem is that of
seeing that employees who didn’t
have such insurance get the maxi-
mum benefits possible,

To meet these problems, the
Commission urged that Federal
employees with less than five
years be permitted, when they
leave Government, to convert
their Federal retirement insur-
ance into Social Security system,

It did not specify how this
should be done. However, it urged
that Congress enact the necessary
legislation. And it is taken for
granted that whatever system is
worked out would be one which
would not entail real financial
loss to the employee.

The Commission pointed out
that its proposal was of impor-
tance not only to Government's
1,800,000 War Service appointees
—many of whom will leave the

service after the war—but also
to many future Government
workers,

U. $. Commission

e
Comes Out Slugging
HE United States Civil Service Commission has gone
| to bat in a big way for Federal employees. The
Commission, often accused of pussyfooting on im-
portant personnel matters, talks tough and talks big. Its
60th Annual Report, which went to Congress last week, is
significant to every Government employee.

In that report, the Commission recommends—=

+-Severance pay for employees who will have to be
cut from the payroll when the war ends;

—Faster, more liberal promotions;

—A Government-wide medical program to safeguard
the health of Federal employees.

—The opportunity for released employees to convert
their Federal Retirement service into Social Secur-
ity insurance;

An educational program for Federal employees;

+—Development of a precise program for handling

the problem of returning veterans who want Goy-

ernment jobs.
The LEADER hasn't yet studied in detail all of the
Commission’s propose Most of them strike us, however,
as being sound and carefully developed. Above this, we
are glad to see the Federal Commission, buffeted on all
sides these past years, standing up and not groveling.
“Guts” is needed in civil service, Ideas are needed for a
new kind of public service which inevitably must come
after the war's end. The Federal Commission has shown
an unexpected courage in its 60th Annual Report. For this
job, a big hand to Commissioners Harry B. Mitchell, Lu-
eille Foster McMillin, and Arthur 8. Flemming.

Comedy of Errors

T SHOULD have been a happy time for Mr. Fiorello
I LaGuardia and the employees of New York City. For
an addition to salaries coming through, and ¢oming
through a half-year in advance of the next budget.

But employees are angered and embittered. The
bonus plan has been put into effect with such bumbling
and fumbling as ill befits our shrewd Mayor. First, he
communed with himself to decide what the increase
should be; second, he tittilated the City's civil servants by
saying was going to give a raise, then kept them on
tenterhooks about what that Yaise would be; third, the
raise was granted as though it were a magnificent present,
not something long overdue; fourth, when finally the
bonus did come through, it amounted to a piddling ad-
dition to present pay; fifth, it was accompanied by
a demand that the employees work overtime, which de-
mand struck employees containing a maximum of gall.

Once again, this newspaper repeats its constructive

ion: The Mayor must learn to work WITH his
employees. He must call them in, before he goes off half-
cocked, and find out what they want, what they will stand
ggestions they have. The practice in private
for the boss to confer with his employee repre-

adopt that same enlightened policy, Strikes us as simple
practical politics, Mr, Mayor.

privately they're terribly worried
over the high percentage of Army
medical discharges labeled “psy-
choneurotic.” The actual figure is
fantastically high, and some
wonder whether the word isn’t
used as a “cover-all” for a lot of
minor ailments. To have “psy
choneurotic” down on the record
is a tough blow for the boys,
makes it harder for them to get
jobs. Maybe some Army medical
bigwig will be smart enough to
change the word, or use different
words to describe different ail-
ments... Governor Dewey inter-
vened in a Xmas party of State
employees last week, and issued
an order prohibiting any cock-

STATE SERVICE is filled with
able men and women who have
made a career of public employ-
ment, but few can qualify as suc-
cessful in both private and pu-
blic business, One of these rarities
is Arthur J, Courtney, known far
and wide as “A J.” He is director
of the Bureau of Stores in the
Division of Standards and Pur-
chase, the mfmmoth “general
store” from which state agencies
and institutions draw millions of
dollars’ worth of food, feed sup-
plies, materials and clothing
every year,

Director Courtney's job in-
cludes scrutiny of open market
purchases amounting to millions
of dollars annually made by state
agencies, He passes upon the re-
quisitions and if they involve
exorbitant prices he rejects them
and makes the purchaser buy at
the price agreed upon by the state
and the seller,

Left Promising Career

Nearly 15 years ago, Mr, Court-
ney, a native of Binghamton,
gave up a mercantile, and estab-
lished civic career in his home
town of Walton, Delaware Coun-
ty, to enter State service, The Di-
vision of Standards and Pur-
chase was looking for someone
to head the bureau of stores,
someone who knew something
about merchandising, Courtney
was induced to make a bid for
the position, and after achieving
top rating in a competitive civil
service examination for the post
he was selected, appointed, and
has been on the job ever since.

It wasn’t easy for Courtney to
pull up stakes and leave Walton
and go to Albany and begin a
new career but he did it. He had
been elected and re-elected Ma-
yor of Walton for nine terms on
a non-partisan ticket. He had
been county food administrator
in 1917-18,

rk he gets out, considering how
sick a man he is...

Candidate Tells Off
The Commission

Sirs: The Clerk Grade 3 exam
was an easy test; but it was a
messy and characterless one, (One
candidate remarked as he finish-
ed: “After writing this Clerk 3
examination I feel three grades
sillier.") The examination pro-
duced many casualties,

One of the important casualties
is the Examining Panel of the
Civil Service Commission, They
put out a hasty and sketchy ques-
tion paper. They hastily re-
pudiated four of their questions,
Many of their tentative answers
are irrational. (no, 3, 5, 7, et al.)
And the Examiners have now
made themselves a total loss by
stubbornly adhering to their en-
tire set of tentative answers, a
patent meneuver for covering their
many errors,

Another serious casualty in this
examination was suffered by the
English language. The good and
useful word “pedantic” was mis-
treated and rendered unrecogniz-
able. In the statement, (question
no, 29) ‘However, tthe purpose
is not to be pedantic, but to be
practical,” does “pedantic” mean
“affected,” as the Examiners in-
sist, or does it mean “philoso-
phical,” the only other and pos-
sible choice offered by the Ex-

aminers? Let us try and-sub-

For 12 years he was a director

stitute the word “affected” for the
| word “pedantic” in the given state-
ment, and what is the result?
The meaning of the word “pe-
dantic,” as well as the meaning
of the whole given statement be-
comes unrecognizable, The follow-
ing dictionaries manage to define
“pedantic” and its derivatives
without the use of the word “af-
fected” or derivatives: Punk &
Wagnall’s, “Oxford,” one Web-
ster's International, and Web-
ster's 1942 Book of Synonyms.
There is another Webster's Dic-
tionary which verbosely and loose-
ly permits the word “affectation”
and “ostentatiousness” to creep in-
to its definition of “pedantic,” but
this same dictionary fails to give
for a synonym of “pedantic’’ any
such word as “affected,”

It is disturbing that the Com-
mission has not dared to make
one correction in the tentative
answers, This serves to empha-
size that they are privileged to
“make mistakes,” and that they
are able to persist in their mis-
takes, Perhaps some of the less
important casualties in this Clerk
Grade 3 examinatiin, namely
candidates, may feel impelled to
try to repair some of the damage
by going to court on such ques-
tions as no, 29. Perhaps they will
succeed, as did some candidates
in the 1939 examination for Clerk
Grade 2, when the Commission
persisted in a pedantic ruling it
had made on the use of the inter:
ogation point, and the courts re-
versed the Commission,

that the unusal meeting called
last Monday during the promo-
tion ceremonies was actually for
the purpose of announcing that
the men had voted to accept the
overtime plan. Apparently the ad-
ministration felt there was no
doubt the men would vote Yes.
That's the only reason men long
in the department can figure out
for the special pains taken at this
meeting, the special telegraphic
order calling all PBA delegates
to be present, and the sour grapes
speech made by the Mayor,

Why NO?
Why did the men vote NO?

That’s not an easy question to

Chances are that these “lift-
ings” won't go on much longer,

One sample of the “red tape”
at Vets is the fact that an em-
ployee leaving for the rest room
is required to sign in and out of
her office on a time sheet. This
makes it possible to know exactly
who was away from her desk at
the time when the pilferings took
place. These sheets are being
checked over, and sooner or later,
the guilty person will slip up.

It's possible that some girl at
Vets picked up that wrist watch
by error, or in a thoughtless mo-
ment. If she wants to return it,
she can leave it at the LEADER
office, 97 Duane Street, 2 blocks
south of the office. We'll see that
it’s returned to the owner.

If these stealings continue, it’s
possible that one day, every girl

answer, With the firemen, it's
much easier, They voted on a
straight trade union angle—they
are AFL men—and they asked for
straight overtime pay. With the
P. D,, however, the bonus sounds
pretty good for only 8 hours work.
(Moreover, it was revealed at that
PBA meeting last Thursday that
out of the 8 hours, 2 would be
taken off for dinner, and also
there would be compensation if
a man had to spend time in
court.)

The boys we've spoken to lead
us to the conclusion that the NO
yote was on principle, The men in
the department are just plumb
tired of being pushed around—
and they're in a mood not to
take it any more. If the plan had
been presented to them as a vo-
luntary one—if their cooperation
had been frankly asked because
of the tough situation in which
the City finds itself—if the whole
business had been fully and can-
didly discussed in advance—then,
it appears, the Mayor and the
Commissioner and Harnedy might
have gotten what they wanted.
‘The cops might have pitched in
on that basis, and taken the ad-
ditional 8 hours work. But
throughout, Harnedy acted with
secrecy—almost nobody knew
what the exact plan was until
the ballots went out. Add to this
@ general indisposition to vote for
increased hours on principle; add
to this the Commissioner's boner
in telling reporters it would make
no difference to him how cops
voted on the proposition—these
were all part of the picture,

We remember that last spring
the delegates voted that Harnedy
should procure a public relations
council for the PBA. Never was
there a time when public relations
was more needed. Harnedy would
have been well advised to follow
that mandate of the delegates,

As we size it up now, President
Patrick Harnedy, who should be
one of the most respected men in
the Police Department, has reach-
ed, instead, his all-time low in
prestige.

‘There's a lesson here: The head
of an organization must ALWAYS
remain close to his men,

in the suspected sections will be
submitted to a questioning before
being allowed to leave the build-
ing. It almost happened when
that wrist watch was taken.

Tale of the Navy Yard Employee
With the Unoperated Hernias

One Brooklyn Navy Yard employee, Ben Portnoy, of
8 Monument Walk, Brooklyn, is using up his annual and
sick leave trying to get an operation for injuries which he
alleges, he suffered at work ——————— >

Here is his story: On June 9,
last, he was lifting a bae of rags
when he suffered a pain in his
left side, He thought it was only
a strain and ignored it. The next
day it bothered him, so he re-
ported it,

He was sent to the medical of-
fice, and told that he had suf-
fered a hernia on the left side, He
continued working for about a
month until it began to bother
him again. Then he was sent to
the Marine Hospital for an exam-
ination. There, the presence of a
hernia on the left side was con-
firmed, The physicians added

New P. D. Lieuts.-.
Disabled Vets

The City Civil Service Com-
mission last week sent to the
Police Department the names of
four eligibles on the Police De-
partment list for promotion to
Lieutenant who had been granted
veterans preference. The Com-
mission had asked that 4 vacancies
be kept open pending action on
these claims.

The following sergeants were
promoted to lieutenant:

William C, Seubert, DV 44;
Thomas L, Burns, DV 133; Daniel
Quinn, DV 184; and Arthur H.
Bendix, DV 287.

The calendar of the City Civil
Service Commission two week's
ago had indicated that the dis-
abled veteran claim of Raymond
C. Martin had been granted, but
at last week’s meeting of the
Commission, his claim was denied.

Sergeant Martin enlisted in the
Navy on June 14, 1918. He re-
enlisted for another 2-year period
on May 17, 1920. He has a claim
for service disability filed with the
Veterans Administration. He had
notified the Commission that the
Administration had advised him
that his claim would take a few
months more before they could ar-
rive at a decision.

RIGHT REV. MSGR. FULTON J. SHEEN, PH.D.

iso weak, and
n,

his right side was
should be operated

Then it came to the United
States Employees Compensation
Commission, at 285 Madison Ave,

That body's ruling was: “We'll
operate on the left side, which
was reported at the time of the
accident.” As to the right side,
well, they haven't any objection
having that operated on at the
same time, provided that Mr,
Portnoy accepts that side (the
right) as his own responsibility,

But They Won't Operate

But, the Marine Hospital says
it won't operate on the right side
without authorization from the
Compensation Board. A_ letter
from Franklin J. Halpin, medical
director of the Commission, says
its O. K, with them if the Marine
Hospital wants to perform the
operation.

So, now, Portnoy can’t get the
operation without authorization
from the Compensation Board,
The hospital is willing to operate
only on one side of him. He can’t
see any logic in half an opera-
tion, after which he first wouldn't
be able to work. He can’t afford
to have a private surgeon perform
the job. He’s using up his leave
trying to get the matter settled.

To top it off, Portnoy’s wife is
sick too.

However, The LEADER is glad,
in this Yuletide season, to be able
to report to Mr. Portnoy that the
Compensation Commission has
decided to allow an operagjon on
both sides—bilateral hernia, it's
called. Dr. Halpin has already
sent through the necessary papers,
he informs The LEADER. And
if Mr. Portnoy has not already
done so, he'll find that everything
is ready for quick action, if he
communicates either with the
Compensation Commission or
with the Executive Officer of the
Stapleton Marine Hospital.

All’s well that ends well. It's
the kind of ending we like to tack
onto a story.

Heading the list of donors a
Vets is quiet Mrs. Nellie Marriott,
from the 4th Floor, who has al-
ready been to the Blood Bank 9
times, and is scheduled for a 10th
trip on January 24. Vivian Grotz
had also reached the 9th contrib-
ution when she left the bureau a
few weeks ago,

Allegretti in Gallon Club

From another Federal agency
comes a male candidate for blood
doning honors with his member-
ship in the Brooklyn Red Cross
“Gallon Club.” Francis X. Alleg-
retti who works for the War De-
partment, N. Y¥. District Office,
U.S. Enginers, at 120 Wall St.

“If everyone knew how simple it
is to make a blood donation,” says
Mr, Allegretti, “and they really
knew what the plasma means to
the boys on every front, no one
would hesitate to make regular
trips to their Red Cross Chapter.

“Please keep pushing the cause,”
he adds, “For with victories the
casualties are higher, and the de-
mand for plasma greater.

Let’s Have Your Name

The LEADER has received many
names of employees who have con-
tributed to the Blood Bank. Every

!) one of these names will be printed.

Nellie Mariott Prepares
For 10th Blood Bank Trip

Over 2,200 pints of blood have been contributed by
the employees of Veterans Administration, 346 Broadway.
And before long, the office hopes to reach the goal of a
pint of blood for each of the 3,500 employees.

If you've contributed two or more |
times, then send in your name
immediately.

Moreover, we're seeking the
champion blood donor among pub-
lic employees. So let's have your
nomination now!

As for those government work- |
ers who haven't yet contributed
their blood—tsk, tsk tsk! Do it
now! Address of the Blood Bank |
is 2 East 37th Street; the tele-
phone number is MU_5-6400.

FROM

CABLES

“I HAVE SEEN the soldiers come down
from the ships and stand in long lines
on the docks, their ‘B’ bags on their
backs and their rifles slung over their
shoulders.

“I have seen the supplies come in by
the hundred shiploads, locomotives and
tanks and trucks—acres of boxed food and
great mounds of hams, shiploads of bombs
stacked in from keel to hatch and all ma-
terials that we need at home—steel for
bridges and buildings, food for our own
people, material enough to make all Amer-
ica well fed and well housed and well
clothed,

“I have seen the men climb into the
Fortress in the early morning and fly away
waving with elaborate nonchalance and I
have seen the gap in the mess when they

did not come back and the empty bunks,
the blankets thrown aside as they, threw
them, and the framed photographs on the
steel lockers. ’

“The men have gone up the gangway,
again to go into action and they jump from
landing barges to a beach, strewn with the
bodies of their own people, and they claw
their way like animals into a hostile coast.

“I have seen the hospitals with the
mauled men, the legless and blind, the
fingerless hands and the bi 1 faces—all
the destruction that steel and fire can do ta
a man’s body and mind. In God’s name,
what is it for except to get this horrible
thing over with as quickly and as thors
oughly as possible?, And if this is true, if
should not be a matter of ‘Who will lend hie
money?’ but ‘Who dares not to?’ ”

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Easier Promotions
For U. S. Workers

WASHINGTON—If Civil Serv-
ice Commission has its way, Fed-
eral workers in the future will get
faster promotions—and somewhat
more liberal ones.

In its annual report, the Com-
mission recommended:

1 —Faster automatic promotions
under the Mead-Ramspeck
Act,

More liberal use of the so-

called ‘meritorious’ promo-
tions, which are granted for ex-
eeptionally outstanding service,

Now it is true that neither the
automatic promotion nor the mer-
itorious one is especially large.
Nevertheless, every Government
worker will agree that the Com-
mission's recommendations are a
step in the right direction,

So will Federal personnel men—
most of whom have long felt that

the present promotion policy of
the Government is entirely in-
adequate,

‘The Commission made no spe-
cific recommendations for the
speeding up of Ramspeck auto-
matic promotions. However, its
views are fairly well known,

At present, Government work-
ers with efficiency ratings of
Good or better get an automatic
maise every 18 months—providing
their salary is $3200 or less. How-
ever, if it happens to exceed
$3200, they must wait 30 months.

Automatic raises are very small
—Tunning from $60 to $250 per
year,

What the Commission wants is
a system that would cut the wait-
ing periods to 12 and 18 months,
This, it feels, would provide
greater incentive for employees to
maintain high efficiency ratings.

“The statute”, the Commission
said in its report, “puts too much
emphasis on waiting and too lit-
tle on producing,

“The statutory limitations do
not recognize the fact that obvi-
ius differences in performance
are inevitably shown in a much
shorter time among new employes
of varying abilities and experience
who enter on duty at the same
standard minimum rate.”

On the subject of meritorious
promotions, the Commission asked
that it be given authority to set
up standards to govern them,

Also, it asked elimination of the
restriction which says only one
increase of one pay step can be
granted in any one 18-month or
30-month period—regardless of
how outstanding the special serv-
ice which justifies it,

“Tf this is done and if increases
are made only on the basis of
definite evidence of accomplish-
ment, incentives for producing
work of special value and merit
will be provided”, it said.

In the past, meritorius raises
have been granted very sparingly.
Like Ramspeck automatic raises
they ordinarily are small—either
one-step or two-step within-grade
promotions,

‘That means a range from $60-
$120 per year for lower-bracket
employes to $250-500 per year for
higher-paid workers,

Wondered Abouf ‘Leave’ Regulations
Here's How It Works for U.S. Employ,

WASHINGTON—How many U. S. employees fully un-
derstand Government’s complex leave regulations? Re-
cently, OPA did an excellent job of explaining them to

its own employees.

The LEADER thinks the explanation

so good that we take pleasure in reprinting it here,

Annual Leave
Realizing that “all work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy” our
Government has provided all fed-
eral employees with a generous
amount of annual leave per year
for the purpose of vacations, per-
sonal business and so forth, Given
below are some of the facts about
annual leave which every em-
ployee ought to know:
| oe you have a permanent or
war duration appointment,
you earn annual leave at the rate
of 21/6 days a month, or 26 days
‘a year, If you have a temporary
appointment, you accumulate
leave at the rate of 2% days a
month for each full month you
work, This does not apply for
part-time or per diem employees
who are not covered by the provi-
sions of this leave legislation,
Annual leave accumulates for
each working day that you
are in pay status; whether you are
working, on sick leave, or on an-
nual leave, You may not have
known ft, but you are also in pay
status on Sundays and holidays,
K pecerd Government agencies
feel that two weeks is a rea-
sonable annual vacation for a

Vets to Get Jobs
Of Civilians

WASHINGTON — Civil Service
Commission’s annual report con-
tained bad news for thousands of
Federal employees.

At the same time, however, it
contained a large packet of good
news for many former employees
ow in the armed services.

The bad news hit most directly
t two groups:

1, Civilian workers who have
only War Service appoint-
ments in Government—as con-
trasted with full Civil Service
status.

2, Some employees with full
Civil Service status — those
whose Federal service began after
the President’s national - defense
message to Congress on May 16,
1940.

Both the good news and the
bad news were wrapped up in the
portion of the Commissi
port having to do with
ment rights of veterans who had
only War Service appointments
in Government before they went
into uniform.

When it comes to re-employ-
ment, the Commission said, these
veterans “SHOULD BE GIVEN
CONSIDERATION AHEAD OF
ALL NON-VETERANS WITH
THE EXCEPTION OF NON-
VETERANS WITH FULL CIVIL
SERVICE STATUS WHOSE FED-
ERAL SERVICE BEGAN PRIOR
{TO THE PRESIDENT’S NA-
TIONAL-DEFENSE MESSAGE
TO CONGRESS ON MAY 16,
1940,”

What It Means

Read that again, and you'll see
what it means;

—It means that no War Sery-
ice civilian will be permitted to
ain his job while a veteran is
available to fill it,

—Aifd it also means that no
civilian with Civil Service status
will be permitted to retain his
job in preference to a veteran—
if it happens that the civilian’s
appointment came after May 16,
1940,

The real effect of that is to
put many civilian workers with
full Civil Service status into the
same bracket as civilian workers
with mere War Service appoint-
ments, If you entered Govern-
ment service after May 16, 1940,
you can figure that it applies to

you.

The total number of employees
thus affected probably is around
300,000, That is 4 rough estimate

in its annual report) the Commis-
sion said Uncle Sam ought to pro-
vide some sort of a “cushion” for
employees who lose their jobs dur-
ing the demobilization period.
Specifically, it proposed:

—Three months’ pay for U. 8.
employees upon release from
their jobs.
As an alternative, 26 weeks of
unemployment compensation

given workers in private industry.

employees informed of progress on
the severance pay plan.]

service between the May 16 date
and the following March, when
the War Service regulations be-
came effective,

It has been understood from
the beginning, of course, that
War Service appointments were
only temporary—for the duration
plus six months, Nevertheless,
many War Service workers have
had reason to hope that they
might stay on the job, and, event-~
ually, retain full Civil Service
status,

Becomes Difficult

The Commission’s new rules
don’t mean that hope has become
‘Impossible, They do mean, how-
ever, that it has become a gzeat
deal more difficult,

The veteran—the man who has
been giving everything at the
fighting front—is going to get a
job when he comes home, And
the civilian worker is going to be
compelled to step aside,
