Stimulation Recognized
These two suggestions empha-
size once again the value of the
Employees’ Suggestion Program in
encouraging on-the-job thinking,
says the Board. One Supervisor
recently expressed it this way:
“Tt certainly is surprising how
this suggestion program has stim-
ulated my people to think about
the jobs they are doing. Not only
that, but they have become job-
relation conscious. For example,
the typist who fills out certain
forms wants to know where they
come from, and where they go
when she finishes with them. This
whole merit award idea is a con-
stant incentive for employees to
strive to do a better job.”

The Civil Service Employees Association last year ob-
tained an amendment to the Conservation Law to place
Forest Rangers under the general State salary law. The
Salary Board placed the salary at $1,700—$2,300 a year. It
should be higher. We believe the matter is under considera-
tion and we hope and expect more than a nominal increase,
The Forest Fire Observer is classed as an unskilled la-
borer and his salary is determined by the Conservation
Department and by the Budget Division. The current appro-
priation act provides for Forest Fire Observers a salary
“not to exceed $1,200 per annum.” To this is added the
bonus, bringing the total to $1,560 for a full year.
The eyes of the forest service deserve a better break. The
job is distinctly not unskilled. The good Fire Observer works
with his instruments and with his brain. He must know the
winds and the weather, topography and the use of a vari
of scientific instruments, He m know smoke and
fire,
where exactly the fire is, and where it is going, and how fast
it is traveling.
The Forest Fire Observer has a job requiring special
skills. It is not the job of a common laborer,
be a casual or a seasonal job. Too much is at stake.
If you, like myself, want our forests adequately
tected, support the following proposition
1, Make the position of Forest Fire Observer a full-time
competitive position. Use the winter months for fur-
ther training and related work.
2. Fix a salary that fairly corresponds to the dutie
responsibilities of the position.
We owe at least this much to our heroic first line of de+
fense against forest fires.
It should not

Support Subway
Fare Increase
HE Civil Service LEADER earnestly hopes that NYC
_T employees will support the statesmanlike appeal of Mayor
O'Dwyer for an increase in the subway fare.
We urge City employees to do so because such a rise
represents the only way, so long as the City remains without
the general taxing powers common to State and Federal
jurisdictions, in which the City can grant its employees a
salary raise.
It is difficult to refute the arguments set forth by the
Mayor. When money is not available for vital service—he
mentioned specifically the hospitals and health, but he of
course meant them all—so long as the transit system’s
operating deficit continues, then the rise in the subway fare
seems inevitable.
We trust the City will keep in mind, though, that decent
wages to its employees represent one of the chief ways in
which the City can assure itself of decent health and decent
hospitals. The City’s employees are not getting decent wages
today—not in line with the skyrocketing cost of living. We
hope the City will realize that, once the fare is increased,
the argument that it cannot find funds to raise salaries will
no longer hold.
In these times of rising prices, we need some drastic
overhauling of the general public’s thought processes. Just
as the housewife pays more for her butter and for her meat,
so must the public be made to realize that everything
along the line comes higher. That means the cost of health
and hospitals—the cost of police protection and of fire pro-
tection—the cost of teaching the young and of caring for
the aged. Just as the public pay more for their Saturday-
night movies and new cars, so must they be made to see
that they have to pay more to their policemen and to their
firemen. Federal and State employees are of course simi-
Jarly affected.
That’s our ultimate aim! Let’s hope we’re on the way!
Marshall Plan
Has Job Danger
HE expected proposal that all of the thousands of jobs
¢ will be necessitated by the Marshall plan for aiding
the ressed peoples of Europe and Asia be wholly ex-
cepted from civil ice competition has been made. No
time must be lost in fighting this proposal to the utmost.
It is both a slur upon the merit system and an injustice to
Federal employees who have been or are about to be dis-
placed. That more reductions in force are coming, many of
them most unhappily during the Christmas-New Year holi-
day, is well known privately among officials.
The positions that must be filled so that the Marshall
plan can be properly carried out divide themselves naturally
into two categories—domestic and foreign. It has long been
the practice of the State Department and of the Army to
hire employees by contract for foreign work. This method
has worked out satisfactorily and has met with the approval
of adyocates of the merit system, The hiring is usually for
a contract term of two years, sometimes only one year.
The domestic jobs, of which there will be many, should
be filled competitively, under the rules and regulations of the
U.S. Civil Service Commission, and not corrupted into
patronage. Not only are there thousands of released Federal
employees who would be most anxious to return to Federal
positions, and who are well qualified to fill the jobs, and
thousands soon to lose out who are just as competent, but if
can not meet the requirements in every case, the Com-
ion has many lists of eligibles. These should and must
ed, Otherwise we shall find an element of vicious-
s plan that so far has been characterized only by
impartial altruism to those foreigneys who earn it. Why not
also fairness to Americans who earn the right to a Federal
job, instead of practicing favoritism?
No identities have yet been connected with the proposal
to make all the Marshall plan jobs immune from the spot-
light and integrity of civil service, but since the appropri-
ation bills for administering the plan will come up at the
pending special session, patronage provisions may be in-
troduced, These must be the targets of the steady, heavy
and unrelenting*fito of champions of the merit system,
i =.
Repeat This!
/¥C employees plenty hopped up,
so many investigations, includ-
ing those by Citizens Budget
Commission, Division of Analysis
of Budget Director's office, Com-
mitee on Administration and Dept.
of Investigation. Assurences have
been given by NYC administration
that these are “studies” only, no
intent to reduce present number
of employees or pay. Besides,
State is investigating NYC Wel-
fare Dept., but so is Mayor
O'Dwyer. Latest news from ex-
pert group to Mayor on this: So-
cial Investigators in Welfare Cen-
ters often don’t even know who
their Supervisors are.
Best idea for economy in Cen-
sus Bureau in Washington came
from Edgar W. Horad, a Negro,
and brought him $125. He saves
U.S. more than $3,000 a year. Not
a bad bargain. Navy Department,
Jong outstanding practitioner of
compensated suggestion system,
paid more than $200,000 to some
6,000 of its employees for money-
saving ideas in a year,
Acting President Joseph A. Mc-
Namara takes some of the exams
that the NYC Commission gives.
Got a high mark in the Patrol-
man test. It dealt considerably
with criminal law. He’s a lawyer.
The exam for promotion to Ser-
geat had questions on orders,
regulations, forms; he flunked.
Psychologists say Commissioner's
belated mental gymnastics in
Police tests show frustration of
early desire to be a Policeman.
‘Taint so. Early leanings were
toward Fire Department. Impar-
tial now.
Idea of Citizens Budget Com-
mission that NYC charge 25
cents for each application in
addition to filing fee, vetoed by
NYC Civil Service, because
Section 14 of the Civil Service
law says forms must be issued
without charge to all persons
requesting same. . . . N¥C em-
ployees see hope for more pay
in Mayor O’Dwyer’s stand for
increased fare. Meeting trans-
portation operating deficit frees
that much dough for other pur-
Poses; also, tax receipts far
higher than estimated. Em-
ployees hope for more than
making present bonus per-
manent.
Pay increase still main topic

Dr. Clarence H. Bellinger, boss
at Brooklyn State Hospital, gave
employees time off to vote, if they
applied for it, only if they were
registered voters. Says he gives
employees all rights they're en-
titled to, and law mentions the
application, but he has to be fair
to the taxpayers, too, and not let
anybody chisel time off who can’t
vote ... William F. Shea now has

and heads Analysis Division re-
cently created in the NYC budget

Dinny in the office of the Super-
intendent of Maintenance in the

partment at Valhalla, or inquire
at the Elmsford Police Depart-
ment. ... H. Eliot Kaplan pulled
a fluent one when arguing an ap-
peal in a civil service case in the
Appellate Division, First Depart-
ment. The Court asked him
whether in putting a doctor in a
particular job the Board of Edu-
cation had indulged in subterfuge.
“Justice may be blind,” said Mr.
Kaplan, “but the resolution of the

quoted the NYC Civil Service
Commission as “pufling all possi-

reluctant decision to remove a
group of veterans from the 1947
Patrolman eligible list because
they. were a few months over age
when they filed applications.
After spending time and money
and risking our necks in the phys-
icals, we were told we were too

Merit System Support
Not all officials are in favor of
unlimited hiring at wil!. Some of
them feel that the established pro-
cedure of hiring employees by con-
tract for overseas civilian jobs
should be followed, but that local
positions should be filled under the
merit system. Hence they have
been canvassing lists of employees |
who were let out under reduction- |
in-force orders, or who resi
to ascertain whether th
like to return to Federal employ
in Marshall plan jobs 1i is known
that they could fill capably. A high
percentage answered affirmatively,
Some of those who resigned and
are willing to return held high
executive positions and were not
under civil service. Assents from
some of these have been received
too.
Persons familiar with the steel,
lumber, coal and food _busi-
nesses are expected to find jobs
obtainable on a large scale, and
in addition large clerical forces
will have to be hired.
President Truman’s Council of
Economic Advisers has taken a
keen interest in the hiring. It is
counted on as a supporter of the
merit system for filling domestic
jobs, and also for the canvassing
of the best talent in the country
for the administrative and execu-
tive positions, to be filled without
competition. The top jobs do not
come under the Classification Act.

as to give first priority to veterans
who lost opportunity for proba-
tional appointment because of
service in the armed forces and
to disabled veterans. Within each
group, they are entered in the
order of ratings, as augmented by
preference, if any. The groups, in
the order in which they are con-
sidered for certification, are as
follows:
For scientific and professional
positions with a basic entrance
entrance salary of more than
$3,000 a year—
Group 1—Veterans who lost an
opportunity for probational ap-
Pointment because of military
service and whose names have
been restored to the register.
Group 2—All other eligibles.
For all other positions—
Group 1—Ten-point preference
eligibles who lost an opportunity
for probational appointment be-
cause of military service and
whose names have been restored
to the register.
Group 2—All other 10-point
preference eligibles.
Group 3—Five-point preference
eligibles who lost an opportunity

whose names have been restored
to the register.
Group 4—All other eligibles,
Q. What happens if a veteran
—after he has received the extra
points to which he is entitled—
and a non-veteran have the same
rating?
A. The name of the veteran is
entered on the register ahead of
the name of the non-veteran. The
name,of a 10-point preference
eligible goes to the head of the
list, however, in most cases.
Q. If the name of a preference
eligible is certified to an appoint-
ing officer, is the appointing offi-
cer required to appoint him?
A. No. However, if the appoint-
ing officer passes over the name
of a preference eligible and se-
lects a non-preference eligible
whose name is lower on the list
of eligibles, he must give the Com-
mission his reasons for doing so
in writing, The non-preference
eligible selected may not be en-
tered on duty until the Commis-
sion has determined the sufficiency
of the appointing officer's reasons
and the appointing officer has con-
sidered the Commission's findings.
Q. Is time spent in the military
or naval service of the United
States credited in a preference
applicant's experience rating in
an examination?
A. Yes, He is given full credit
for time spent in the armed forces
of the United States. Military
service is either considered as an
extension of the employment in
which he was engaged at the time
he went into the armed forces or
is rated on the basis of the ac-
tual duties performed in the
armed forces.
Pay Increase
And Pensions Held
Principal Issues
A new raise of $1,100 and ade-
quate pensions, are expected to be
the paramount issues of all affili-
ated postal organizations during
the next session of Congress, said
President Ephraim Handman, of
the New York Federation of Post
Office Clerks. He has been in con-
tact with legislators in Washing-
ton on both the salary and retire-
ment issues and feels that a weil-
publicized program will result in
remedial legislation.
He explained that the urgent
need of a pay increase arises from
cost of living figures recently re-
leased by the U. S. in which it
was stated that the average family
spent 32 per cent more for food
this summer than it did at the
same time last year, Based on
mid-summer prices, the average
Tamily spent $636 for the annual
market basket, as compared to
$481 last year.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics
of the U, S. Department of Labor
in its figures, Mr. Handman
states, claims that the weekly
average earnings this summer
were $48.46, but this was worth
only $29.99 in 1939 dollars.
“Food costs are now 107.6 per
cent higher than in August, 1939,”
he said. “This means that the
housewife now pays $20.75 for a
food basket which cost her only
$10 before World War I.” Mr.
Handman pointed out that the
figures tell the story of the diffi-
culties of the postal family in try-
tee meet costs.
among them for a long time that
the present salary of $3,100 for
clerks ang carriers was not pur-
chasing the same amount of food
and clothing as their pre-war
salary of $2,100,” he noted. “The
proposed salary increase of $1,100
would give them an annual salary
of $4,200, or double their pre-
war salary, still hardly adequate
to restore purchasing power.”

tions until Thursday, November

Surface Line Dispatchers in the
Board of Transportation, who
were promoted to that title from
positions of Inspectors of Service,
won the first round of their court
battle to be declared permanent,
when Supreme Court Justice
Bernard Botein ordered a trial of
one issue only,
This legal contention, that re-
ceived the court’s approval, was
that the civil service law does not
give the NYC Civil Service Com-
mission unlimited authority to
certify eligibles for temporary ap-
pointment, but requires perman-
ent appointments, in the absence
of proof that the jobs are actually
temporary, The petitioners had
been certified and appointed as
temporary, even notified that it
was all temporary, but they main-
tain the positions themselves were
permanent, and in a measure were
backed up by an affidavit of
Major General Charles Gross,
then Chairman of the Board of
Transportation,
“The issue ordered sent to trial
was whether the Commission made
due inquiry to determine whether
the positions were actually of a
temporary nature and, even if it
did, whether its determination
was reasonable. The court in an
opinion noted that the Commis-
sion’s affidavits had been silent
on the subject of any inquiry of
this type.
What added novelty to the case
was the statement in General
Gross’s affidavit that the Board
of Transportation actually hoped
that the positions of Inspectors
of Service would continue indefi-
nitely and permanently.

it was extinguished with minimum

Commissioner Wallander did
himself a turn by completing the

the existence clause means with-

The Patrolman list already has

the Civil Service Commission and
Mr. Wallander want to have re-

bought uniform and equipment,

The NYC Civil

Ment to the State Constitution
when the State Legislature con-
venes next year, Sidney M. Stern,
Chairman ‘of the Commission
Committee on Laws and Rules,
announced,
The Commission will ask the
Legistature clearly to define what
constitutes a disability, and what
constitutes a disability in exist-
ence at the time of a claimant's
application for appolniment or
promotion.
Service Com-
This action stems from the
recent snarl centering about. the
gero disability ratings issued by
the Veterans Administration.
Court actions have been brought
to prevent the State and NYC
from granting disabled veteran
preference to eligibles with zero
per cent disability. NYC hi
stepped around the issue by ar-
ranging for the VA to issue di
ability certificates which eliminate
the term “Zero per cent dis
ability.”
