JOBS OPENED
Large Increase
In State Exempt
Jobs Criticized
Criticizing the unusually large number of exemptions
from competitive civil service examinations granted by the
State Civil Service Commission since January 1, 1943, as
“unwarranted,” the Civil Service Reform Association today
urged Governor Dewey, in a letter written by Charles Bur-
lingham, Chairman of its Executive Committee, “to request
the State Civil Service Commission to make a careful study
of the functions of the positions excepted from competition
and reconsider their civil service classification with a view
to Placing them in the competitive class wherever prac-
ticable.””
‘The letter states that the Ex-
ecutive Committee had considered
a report of its special committee
which made a comparative study
and analysis of exemptions of
positions from competitive exami-
nations in the State departments
(exclusive of State courts and in-
stitutions) granted since 1921 by
the State Civil Service Commis-
ton—decrease 4.

The period for the receipt of

Mayor O'Dwyer wants the exam-
ination held as quickly as pos-
sible. A short filing period helps
that result.
The period is expected to be
opened the last week of this
month and last through the first
week in May. Thus not quite a
full two weeks may possibly

State Steps Up Fight on Cancer
By Dr. M. L, LEVIN
Newly-appointed Director of
Division of Cancer Control,
State Health Department
Cancer, In many respects the
nation’s number 1 health problem,
has long been a major concern
of New York State's medical pro-
fession and Department of Health.
‘The first legisiative appropria-
tion in this country to aid in the
fight against cancer was made by
the New York State Legislature
in 1898 when $10,000 was assign-
ed to the New York State Patho-
logical Laboratory Butfalo.
‘This laboratory, during the years,
has grown into the present State
Institute for the Study of Malig-
nant Diseases, recently renamed
the Rosewell Park Memorlal Hos-
pital. Today {t is a hospital of
108 beds, equipped with modern
facilities for surgical and radia-
tion treatment of cancer and al-
Ned conditions. It treats more
than 5,000 citizens of the State
each year and its annual budget
the
in
States, Mas-
sachusetts and Missouri, can boast
of a similar State service.
The demands continually made
upon the State Institute far ex-
ceed its present capacity to re-
eeive and care for patients. An
urgent need exists to expand both
its physical plant and its staff.
Plans for such expansion have
been drawn and are now in the
hands of the Post-War Planning
Commission's Hospital Board and
the State Commissioner of Health.
In addition to its major func-
tions of diagnosis treatment
of patients referr by physicians
from all over the State, the Insti~
tute carries out esearch in the
biology, chemistry, physics and
genetics of cancer in man and in
animals. This work must be great-
ly extended also, for in it lies our
chief hope of eventually conquer-
ing this most dreaded disease of
modern times.

The State
Employee
By FRANK L. TOLMAN
President, The Association of
State Civil Service Employees
Unfinished Business
IT IS THE NATURE of unfinished business to stay unfinished
Tt is the nature of legislatures, in clearing their calendars, and, of
governors in considering the product of the legislative session, to
Gefer for future consideration whatever can be put off, postponed or
delayed.
It is also the nature of humans to be impatient with dilatory
tactics, particularly with needless and unexplained inertias and
Procrastinations.
Many good m and noble women ert worthy causes when
the road ahead seems long or tough. To possess one’s soul in
patience or to take up arms against a sea of trouble is always
ifficult but often ix necessary,
The above platitudes are perhaps excusable if they are kept in
mind in reviewing the record of the Association for the first half
year of 1945-1946 ending April 1, 1946
SOME OF UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Many of the most important objectives of the Association have
failed to gain legistative sanction and thus remain as unfinished
®usiness for future legislatures, These include the chief pension
bills, unemployment insurance, the cost-of-living adjustment bill,
the time service extra increments bill, equal pay for women, the
nurses bill, Increased pay for employees at hospitals for the insane,
and many other essential measures,
The bonus, the merit award bill, some extensions of Feld Hamil-
ton arc among the bills passed by the Legislature.
‘The veto of the Governor has fallen on the $1,200 minimum pay
bill. He has approved the chief budget bills. He will doubtless sign
‘or veto others as seems to him proper or. expedient. Memos have
been filed with the Governor's Counsel on ali our bills, We hope
they may be considered solely on their merits
‘The Association opposed some vicidus or faulty bills that failed
ol passage. It aided in the drafting or perfecting of various bills
introduced by departments, and aided in thelr passage.
1 HEART OF PROGRAM
Our unfinished business becomes the heart of the Association's
fegislutive program for 1947. As to the important group of pension
bills, the Governor has promised that needed reforms in the Retire-
tment Jaw will be studied by the Comptroller and the State Retire-
ment officials in conference with the Association's representatives.
This is a distinct gain of which we must take full advantage, Earlier
Bension conferences have been fruitful in increasing mutual under-
Standing of the needs of the employees and of the limitations of the
fund. We should make important advances through these promised
¢onferences.
New basic pay rates to incorporate the emergency bonus is also
Promised. The Association hopes to cooperate closely with the Salary
Board in working out the new scales.
There must be no rest for the officers and members of the
Association in the new legislative program, The women should now
begin to claim anew equal pay for equal work for nurses, for attend-
ants at women's prisons and reformatories, ete, Reclassification or
reallocation of salaries may do much to place uniformed attendants
&t Matteawan and at Dannemora on more equal status with their
brother prison guards but failing that, another appeal must be made
to the next legislature. The same is true for many groups in Mental
Hygiene institutions, We all must fight for a fair basic wage scale
to be used in the next budget and a cost-of-living adjustment to
Protect us against future possible inflation, which seems to threaten.
THE GOOD FIGHT GOES ON
No problem is finally settled until it is settled right
Vigilance is the price of good civil service administration
ciation is neither bloody or supine. It
champion the just causes of State emplo;
hope more successfully than ever before.

Special to The LHADKR
ALBANY, April 16— Deputy
Comptroller Edwin B. Kenngott
was thanked by the Association
of State Civil Service Employees
for his cooperation, and that of
his staff, in working out the pro-
visions of the bill to reduce the
interest on loans from the State
Retirement System.
In a letter to Charles B. Breitel,
J. T. DeGraff, Counsel to the As-
sociation, said that the Associa-
tion recommended approval by
Governor Dewey of the bill intro-
duced by Senator William 8. Hults,
Jr, (SI. 1856) to reduce the rate
from 6 to 4 per cent,
Mr. DeGraff wrote:
“We think the provisions of this
bill are wholly sound and that it
will greatly benefit the large num~-
ber of employees who obtain loans
from the Retirement System,”
ALBANY, April 16—Three bills
affecting veterans’ rights in civil
service have been signed by Gov-
ernor Dewey
1, Veterans who have been ap-
pointed from a special military
list gain seniority from the date
| when any eligible lower on the
| original list was appointed.
2. The period of military serv-
ice may be deducted from the
actual age of the ve an where
there is an age limit for the civil
service examination
3. Veterans who passed the
written test but missed the physi-
eal portion of an open-compett-
tive examination because of mili-
tary service are entitled to @ spe-
clal physical test. Thus open-
competitive and promotion exams
are put on the same basis,
The first two bills were intro-
duced by Senator Thomas F.
Campbell (R,, Schenectady), the
third by Senator Richard DiCo-
stanza (R., Manhattan).

In approving the three bills,

from President J, Edward Con-
way, of the State Civil Service
Commission, to Dr. Newton J. T.
Bigelow, Chairman of the Board
President Conway expressed the
desires of Governor Dewey
The outstanding point in the
letter was that a new basic scale
must be established, which in-
dicated that the Increased pay will
be reflected in existing grades,
rather than grades raised to reflect
the inclusive pay. The deadline
fixed is January 1 next
Conway's Letter
The letter follows:
“In his annual message, Gover-
nor Dewey stressed the necessity
of reviewing the State's basic
salary scales during this year,
Changes in economic conditions
have warranted the increases that
the Governor has recommended
in the form of additional emer-
gency compensation. The basic
scales must be completely over-
hauled to provide a new basic
scale,
“In accordance with that dec-
laration, funds were provided for
your Board to conduct the re-
quired research on which to build
@n up-to-date salary structure
without having to resort to the
emergency compensation. Gover-
nor Dewey is anxious that your
work proceed with all possible
speed. He desires that your re-
searches be broad and cover at
least, the following:
“1, The scale and range of
salaries paid by private industry
and Federal, State and local gov-
ernments for services comparable
with those performed by State em-
ployees,
“2. Salary levels in State serv-
ice for positions in the same pro-
motional series in order that
increasing responsibility be prop-
erly recognized.
“9. Salary levels in State serv-
fee for positions requiring a high
degree of technical or professional
training and education should re-
ceive particular attention
Jan, 1 Deadline
“In order that permanent re-
visions in salaries can be effective
on April 1, 1947, it will be neces-
sary for the present salary sched-
ules to be completely revised. This
will require legislative action and
your findings and recommenda-
tlons should be available by Jan-
uary 1, 1947,
“The survey you are undertak-
ing will be the first since salary
standardization became effective.
It is of paramount importance to
the thousands of State employees
and to the efficient conduct of the
State's affairs, The Administra-
tion hopes that your Board and
its staff will concentrate its
efforts on the study and research
that is called for, and that dell-
berations on particular or individ-
ual appeals for reallocation of
salary can be held to the mini-
mum, In this way the work on all
salaries can move ahead faster
and the interests of all employees
can be served more quickly and
uniformly.”
Referring to President Con-
way's letter, a representative of
the State Association said that all
committees of the Association are
prepared to cooperate fully in the
work of the Salary Standardiza-
tion Board to bring about the
desires expressed by Governor
Dewey in his message to the Leg-
islature and to the employees at
the annual dinner of the Associa-
tion, that, emergency scales
made a part of the permanent
salary scales for the coming years;
the salary study is of vital im-
portance to every State worker.
Int, 1225, Pr, 1343) amends the
Military Law to provide
“1, that one who is ultimately |
promoted in the Civil Service shall
not lose seniority for certain pur-
poses because of the period of |
time prior to his promotion dur-
ing which he was a member of
the armed forces;
“2, that one who is ultimately
appointed or promoted from lists
affecting the uniform forces of a
ploce, fire or correction depart-
Ment shall not lose seniority for |
certain purposes because of the
period of time prior to his ap-
pointment or promotion during |
which he was a member of the}
armed forces.
Age Limits Softened
"The second bill (Senate Int.
847, Pr. 894) provides that where
maximum age requirements are
established with respect to civil
service positions, the period of
time during which the applicant
was engaged in military duty shall
not be included in computing the
applicant's age.
“The third bill (Senate Int.
2432, Pr. 2859) relates to a spe-
cial situation arising where an
applicant for entrance into the
Civil Service has taken a com-
petitive examination but has been
prevented from taking or com-
pleting the physical examination
because of service in military

duty, The bill provides that un-
der those circumstances the ap-
plicant will be entitled to take
the physical examination within
a period of ninety days after the
termination of military duty and
provides further for the placing
ef his name upon an appropriate
list
Why the Difference
“Last year I had occasion to
disapprove a number of bills that
dealt with some of the matters
involved in these bills. I disap-
proved them because of defects
in draftsmanship, inconsistencies
among their provisions and be-
cause sufficient study had not yet
been given to the problems in-
volved. The present bills are the
product of study, consultation be-
tween the State Department of
Civil Service and the State Divi-
sion of Veterans’ Affairs, as well
as with agencies outside govern-
ment interested in the veterans
and interested in the Civil Service,
“The bills I am today approv-
ing mark an important step in
providing the veterans of the State
with privileges and rights that in
some measure offset the conse-
quences suffered because of their
absence in the armed forces dur-
ing the period of war. Although
the benefits conferred are major,
they will not endanger the funda-
mental principles of the merit
system embraced in our Consti-
tution and they do provide a fur-
ther practical implementation of
the preference for veterans in the
Civil Service which was incorpo-
rated Into the Constitution at the
last general election by action of
the people of the State."

MERIT AWARD BILL
SIGNED BY
DEWEY;
SPURS EMPLOYEES
Special to The LRADER
ALBANY, April 16—Governor
Dewey signed the bill providing
for the reward of unusual and
meritorious suggestions and ac-
complishments of State employees.
It also provides for a Merit Award
Board, and appropriates $5,000 to
the State Civil Service Depart-
ment for that purpose.
‘The measure provides that such
awards will include but will not
be limited to certificates, medals
or other Insignia, cash or in lieu
of or in addition thereto an in-
crease in pay not to result in an
increase beyond the maximum of
* grade.
The bill was sponsored in the
legislature by Senator Seymour
Halpern (R., Queens).
State Association Bill
‘The bill was drafted by and in-
troduced at the request of the
Association of State Civil Service
Employees,
Approval Was Urged
Tn urging the Governor to sign
the bill, John T. DeGraff, Counsel
to the Association, and writing in
its behalf, said in a letter to
Charlies D, Breitel, the Governor's
Counsel, that the bill “is a chal-
lenge both to the administration
and the employees of the State.”
The letter continued:
“If it (the proposed law) is
properly administered it can lead
to a substantial improvement in
the public service and furnish
worthwhile incentives to State
employees. If it is poorly admin-
istered it will be nothing but a
headache, We therefore urge that
the State officers or employees ap-
pointed to the Board be of the
highest ability—men who will in-
spire confidence and respect, and
who will have the initiative and
understanding to make this plan
® success.
Big Response Expected
“We believe that the employees
of the State will respond whole-
heartedly and that the public will
benefit immeasurably from the
adoption of this bill, which creates
the machinery to make possible
the objective Governor Dewey
outlined in his address at the an-
nual meeting of the Association,”
The letter also set forth:
“The plan is patterned after
similar plans now in effect in
many private corporations, such
as the General Electric Company,
and in the Navy Department and
other Federal agencies, Experi-
ence has shown that such plans
have not only improved morale
and efficiency, but have resulted
in tremendous savings as well.
One suggestion, rewarded by the
Navy Department, resulted™In sav-
ings of $240,000 in one Navy Yard
alone.
“This bill gives the Board broad
rile-making powers and provides
that the awards may be in the
form of (a) certificates, medals
or other appropriate insignia, (b)
cash awards and (¢) increased
compensation.”
CREDIT UNIONS
There are 600 credit unions
among teachers in the United
States, In the next few years the
number is expected to double or
triple.
What State Employees Should Know
By THEODORE BECKER
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES CANNOT
BE DENIED FREEDOM
‘Thiat civil service employees
have the right to organize for their
mutual benefit as employees is
recognized. The Bill of Rights
contained in the State Constitu-
tion provides that “employees
shall have the right to organize
and to bargain collectively through
representatives of their own
choosing.”
Purthermore, the Civil Rights
Law of this State declares that
a citizen shall not be deprived of
the right to appeal to the legis-
lature, or to any public officer,
board, commission or other public
body, for the redress of griev-
ances, on account of employment
in the civil service of the State
or any of its civil divisions
Significance of Statute
Does this mean that employee
representatives are free to crticive
a department head publicly for
actions deemed against the inter-
esix of his employees?
This question was recently
raised in and decided by the Court
of Appeals, the highest court in
the State, In a case involving the
Uniformed Piremen’s Association
of NYC.
In a dispute over hours, the
Association ¢reated a public rela-
tions committee, which had is-
sued a statement to the press.
The Fire Commissioner directed
the president of the Association
to make “no further statements
of any kind, either for publication
or otberwise, concerning the mem-
bers of the Association in relation
to the Department.”
A Department rule prohibits
members from sanctioning the
use of their names in connection
with any magazines or newspaper
*. unless written approval of
» Chief of the Department is
obtuined
Rule Attacked In Court
The president of the Associa-
tion, thereupon, brought action to

OF COMMENT
Fire Commissioner's
clared invalid.
The Court of Appeals, to which
the case finally came, decided that
it could not declare the rule im-
proper standing by itself, inas-
much as the Department head is
empowered by law to adopt rules
for the regulation of his depart-
ment, Nor could it be presumed
that the approval of the Pire Com-
missioner to press releases of the
Association would be arbitrarily
withheld,
Order Held Unreasonable
However, the Court did feel that
the Commissioner's order was 50
broad in scope and so rigid in
terms as to be arbitrary and un-
reasonble, It held that there was
no express or implied power in
the Department head to prohibit
any kind of statements relating
to the Association-Department
problems. Such an order by the
Fire Commissioner, the court
ruled, would violate the provisions
of Section 15 of the Civil Rights
Law, inasmuch as firemen fall
within the terms “civil service of
the State or any of its civil divi-
sions or cities.” Kane v, Walsh.
The court, therefore, in effect,
order de-
affirmative.

ALBANY, April 16.—'Helping
the returning serviceman to re-
sume his rightful place in civilian
life is of the greatest importance,”
said State Industrial Commis~-

open, starting New York State's

Special to The LEADEK
ALBANY, April 16—The shad
fire running and the season is
‘The run of shad increased each
year. In 1944, the reported catch
had jumped to 2,118,691 pounds
and in 1945 it was 2,167,540
pounds. The U. S. Department of
the Interior reported that 5,000,-
000 pounds were taken in the
whole Hudson area in 1944. New
Jersey fishermen claim that the
restoration activities in New York
State increased their take.
‘The seAson remains open until
June 15. The licenses under which
they operate also restvict the num-
ber, size, and kind of nets which
may be used.
“Cooperation by the commercial
fishermen, who realize that these
conservation measures have re-
stored their industry, and strict

NYC Evolving 5-Year Plan
For Civil Service Needs
ee O'Dwyer administration in NYC is speeding the
conduct of the important, large examinations at a faster
rate than could have been reasonably expected. The Patrol-
man (P.D.) examination now under way is to be followed
up by another for the same job, and in between, though
of consequence in its own right, will be the Fireman (F.D.)
examination. These tests draw nearly 20,000 candidates
apiece. .
The current Patrolman test is for filling more than
3,000 positions; the succeeding one will he aimed at prob-
ably 2,000 vacancies. The Fireman examination will be
aimed at filling about 500 vacancies. These are trying under-
takings by. the NYC Civil Service Commission, but it is
meeting the demands, under the personal direction of Mayor
O'Dwyer and with the co-operation of Police Commissioner
Wallander and Fire Commissioner Quayle,
Smaller Examinations, Too
There are, however, other pressing needs for recruit-
ment, and examinations are the only means of filling the
gap. The Commission has submitted to the Mayor a two-
year plan for examinations, including tests large and small
in number of expected applicants or vacancies. This does
not fully meet all requirements, it is freely admitted, and
there may yet emerge a five-year plan without any ideologi-
cal implications. Planning is one thing NYC civil service
can well stand. It is stimulating to all advocates of the
merit system, to all City employees and all who aspire to
a career in the City service, to find the hurdles that had
seemed too high for many a year, now being taken in stride
by an alert and aggressive administration. The attention
being paid to the smaller examinations confirms the scope
of the planning, since the normal tendency is to delay these
unduly, in the press of events of greater numerical mag-
nitude.
What can not be postponed must not be delayed.
A Much-Needed Reform
In Mental Hygiene
REAT hospitals for mental patients are a costly relative
failure and are on the way out. They should be largely
superseded by regional psychiatric service on much the same
basis as public health is administered. Since millions of
dollars of Federal money are probably to be made available
for a nation-wide study and survey, should not brave plans
now be formulated to prevent insanity and to give early
treatment to mental diseases?
Dr. George 8. Stevenson, Medical Director, National
Committee on Mental Health, gives some sound advice:
“The psychiatric service of a State as it exists today
is at best a ward-centered service of high technical quality.
There is good classification, good therapy, good occupation,
and good recreation; but it is ward-centered. It is not cen-
tered on the fraility of human beings, to be seen and dealt
with from incipiency to rehabilitation or death. If it were,
it would not be ward-centered but instead would be com-
munity-centered. The ward of the mental hospital would
be then only one adjunct of service rather the beginning
and the end.”
The future psychiatric function of the State's largest
department should aim to assure to its citizens a higher
measure of mental health, The function must be community-
centered. Instead of having directors of hospitals, one may
well look forward to having directors of mental health dis-
tricts reconciled with districts of other community State
functions—welfare, education, etc, Instead of having ward-
centered staff doctors, one might look forward to area
psychiatrists in regions of a size commensurate with the
eapavity of a psychiatrist, Needs for in-patient and out-
patient servic for children and adults, consultation with
agencies, education of the community and the development
of a mentally hygienic environment would be within the
functions of the area psychiatrist.

For Civil Service
By JAMES E. ROSSELL
Director, Second Region U. 8. Civil Service Commission
PRETTY GENERALLY in the United States, Civil Service Come
missions do not go so far as to consummate the hiring or final
selection. Usually the appointing authority has a choice of two or
more candidates at the top of his given list,
Let’s take a look at the personnel agency in the form of a civil
service commission. It is our belief that such an agency should be
so close to_the appointing officers that all of the qualifications
deemed essential by the appointing authority are given careful con«
sideration when drawing up final requirements for civil service
competition,
THE UNIFIED REQUIREMENTS
When the appointing authority's requirements meet the follows
ing criteria they should be incorporated in the requirements of the
civil service body:
1. The requirements constitute a reasonable minimum for
persons in the occupational field.
2. The requirements are drawn so that any citizen can meet
them under existing patterns of experience and educa-
itonal systems.
3. Where specialized experience is required, the requirements
should be broad enough to take in all positions wherein
the experience will meet the employer's minimum
standards,
4, The civil service body should make sure that no special-
ized requirements not necessary are placed within the
requirements, *
5. The written examinations where practicable should be
“given after valid tests have been developed.
IN THE GOOD OLD Days
When we are thinking of a personne) agency as the personne
department in an operating office, we like to survey the function
with the idea in mind as to what it is expected to accomplish,
In the old days when the foreman kept the time book which
in turn handed over to the payroll office, and the same foreman
handed out “pink” slips, we had relatively little personnel manage-
ment, Through the years public-spirited citizens and organizations
have forced better personnel management along with remedial legis«
Jation in certain States as well as in the Federal Government.
Public business had very little better personnel management than
private organizations in the early days of our Government. For
example, aside from timekeeping and the fiscal organization there
was very little in work slong the lines of personnel management.
Notwithstanding the lack of organization, many Government
agencies did outstanding jobs in personnel management through the
regular operating officials,
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Many a division chief in Government service had assigned to
an assistant all of the little items we have come to think of as being
incorporated in personnel management today. Sometimes personnel
management began as a credit aid to employees, This moved on to
employee organizations for their own welfare; the establishment of
cafeterias, improvement in physical plant, Nehting, and often
the employees themselves would bring to the attention of manage-
ment a bad train, bus or car schedule’ Very often it was easy to
arrange these transportation schedules to sult the office, At other
e
times it was found advisable to stagger the persons coming to work,

Byrd Would Cut
Total Employees
To One Million
By BERNARD K. JOHNPOLL
Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, April 16—The
Byrd Committee has drawn up @
proposal to cut the number of
employees in the Pederal service
down to 1,000,000 total in 24
months. The plan would entail «
reduction of 400,000 by April 1
next, The Committee proposes to
offer a rider to the Federal pay
raise bill, but if that is not suc-
cessful, it plans to introduce a
separate resolution,
‘The so-called economy plan
will be based on a sliding schedule
with increasing percentages of
reductions starting with 8 per
cent month and going up to 10
per cent or more, so that within
two years after the passage of
the bill the million figure would
be reached,
An additional feature Is to re-
quire that expanding agencies
borrow employees from agencies
that are either not expanding or
are contracting. This is the Byrd
plan to put a ceiling on the nufh-
ber of Federal employees.
Called Serious Threat
The Byrd proposal came before
the House and Senate conference
subcommittee as a proposed sub-
stitute for the Dickstein rider
which would require that the pro-
posed increase In pay be accom-
plished within existing appropria-
tions. Senator Byrd said that the
Dickstein Bill would accomplish
almost mo economy because it
would not reduce appropriations.
‘The subject of having a ceiling
on the number of Federal em-
ployees has received some support
from Senators. _
An administration official said
that the Byrd proposal constitutes
@ most serious threat not only to
efficiency in the Federal service,
but also to the possibility of the
Federal Government not perform-
ing its basic functions in full
Reemployment Rights
Of Vets in Temporary
Agencies Are Upheld
Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, April 16—Vet-
erans who have classified competi-
tive status In the Federal civil
eervice, even if they were employed
in temporary Government agen-
cies, have reemployment rights,
Attorney-General Tom C. Clark
ruled. This extends such rights
to a new area and supersedes an
opinion rendered by the preceding
Attorney-General, Francis Biddle,
The opinion, rendered at the
request of the Secretary of the
Interior, involves employees of the
Bituminous Coal Division, the Coal
Mines Administration, the Solid
Fuels Administration for War, and
the War Relocation Authority, all
temporary agencies within the
Department of the Interior, which
have. been abolished or are in
process of liquidation. By exten-
sion, the principle applies to other
temporary agencies.
Liberal Interpretation
Attorney-General Clark advised
that veterans having permanent
civil service status who were em~-
ployed by these enumerated agen-
before entering the armed
forces are entitled to reemploy-
ment in the Department of the
Interior, since all of the agencies
were integral parts of the Interior
Department and the reemploy-
ment obligation rests on the
Department as a whole.
The new decision thus substan-
tially broadens previous inter-
pretations of veterans’ reemploy-
ment rights under Section 8 of
the Selective Training and Serv-
ice Act, Previous rulings by Attor-
ney-General Francis Biddle held
that all employees of temporary
agencies were occupants of tem~-
porary positions and had no re-
employment rights under the
statute,
‘That ruling ts modified in the
present position and permanent
Civil Service veteran employees
of a temporary agency are held to
have reemployment rights even
Where the agency has gone out of
existence If the agency was an
integral part of a larger unit, such
as a department, or if its functions
were transferred to another
agency, However. where the re-
employment obligation cannot be
traced to a larger unit of a suc-
Cessor agency, liquidation of the
employing agency would terminate
reemployment rights under the
statute. The
these questions in individual cases,
says the opinion, rests with the
Civil Service Commission.
What Clark Said
Setting forth s general prin-
ciple which should be followed in
considering veterans’ reemploy-
ment rights, Attorney-General
Clark said “the reemployment pro-
visions of the Selective Training
and Service Act must be liberally
construed to protect the veteran.”
Discussing the acquisition of
Permanent civil service status as
affecting the character of employ-
ment in the Federal Government,
the Attorney-General commented:
“To determine whether a posi-
tion was a ‘temporary’ one re-
quires an examination of the con-
tract or understanding between
the employer and the employee,
as well as the conditions and
character of the employment. If
the employer and the employee
could reasonably expect, from the
conditions surrounding the em-
ployment, that the employment
was not for a short and limited
period, the employee should be
held to be within the group pro-
tected by the statute.
“In my opinion, a basic factor
in determining whether a Gov-
ernment employee has reemploy-
ment rights is whether or not he
has acquired a permanent Civil
Service status. The purpose of
granting such status to certain
employees of the Government is
to enhance their security. Acquist-
tion of such status has the effect
of giving the employee protection
against arbitrary and unexpected
termination of his employment.
Once having acquired such status,
an employee is regarded, and
should be able to regard himself,
as part of the permanent govern-
mental establishment."
Private Industry Separate
‘The new opinion applies only to
reemployment rights in the Fed-
eral Government and does not in
any way involve the right of re-
employed veterans in private in-
dustry to be retained as against
non-veterans having greater
seniority, The latter question ts
now before the Supreme Court for
decision in the case of Pishgold ys.

WASHINGTON, April 16—The
Senate and “fouse Conference
bag aioed which is considering
the Pederal employee pay bill is
in substantial agreement on the
necessity of granting the $400 that
was voted by the House, but some
of the members are considering
favoring an inerease of about 17
per cent to employees fn the
higher-paid brackets who other-
wise would not get an increase
comparable to the rise in the cost
of living.
Senator Sherman Downey
thinks that the subcommittee
could practically write a new bill,
if it so desires, for salaries up to
$10,000.
The consensus is that the con-
ference will settle for the House
bill except for the bare possibility
of superimposing a percentage
basis for the higher brackets, but
if this added percentage is granted
to these employees the effective
date would be on the basis of
June 30, 1945 pay, which was the
day before the last increase went

Each case rests on its own mer-
its, The nature of the disability
and the nature of the employment
are all important, Employability
is usually considered in determin-
ing the degree of disability but is
not necessarily a deciding factor.
Often part-time employment Is
considered occupational thereapy
—good medicine. Again employ-
ment may be evidence of improve-
ment and a reduction in compen-
sation or pension can be expected.
Pension Increase
DOES A DISABLED veteran re-
ceive an increase in pension on
reaching age 65?
Public Law 313 provides an in-
crease when a veteran has been
in receipt of pension for a con-
tinuous period of ten years or at-
tains age 65. Contact your near-
est Disabled Veterans service of-
fleer for complete information.
Compensation Under GI Bill
CAN A VETERAN who Is rated
as 100 per cent disabled apply for
unemployment compensation un-
der the GI Bin?
As long as a veteran is con~-
sidered unemployable, there might
be some question as to whether or
not he Is entitled to draw this un-
employment compensation, Con-
tact your local United States Bm-
ployment Service for a ruling on
this matter,

that the Dirksen amendment,
which would force personnel cuts

be eliminated as administratively

ferees do not recommend any pro-
visions for a final bill which have
not already been agreed to by
either House or Senate, Mr. Stein
said that a special situation ex-
ists. He says that since the Sen-
ate acted on this question last
December much larger wage in-
creases have been granted to pri-
yately employed workers than the
increases which the Senate voted
Federal workers and that a new
national wage-price policy has
been adopted authorizing in-
creases at least equal to the rise
in living costs. Stein states that
the Senate would doubtless now
be willing to vote larger increases
than it previously provided,
On this basis, Mr. Stein asks
that the $400 provision be re-
tained, but that additional in-
creases be provided for the mid-
dle-income group to place them
on par with living cost increases
since 1941.

new IAFF local’s first objective is
| the enactment of the bill, now in
the City Council, which would
grant representation to the Ex-
ecutive Board on the Board of
Trustees of the Fire Pension Pund.
| After that is accomplished, the
UPOA will consider other objec-
fives, none of which, however, are
even being discussed at the
moment
i Plan to Join FFA
| A second Fire pension bill, In-
|]| troduced in the name of Council-
man DePaloo, has been disowned
by him, It set up a different
system of representation, and one
which the UPOA found to be so
utterly lacking in realism that it
did not take the bill seriously.
After Mr, DeFaloo was Interviewed
by UFOA officers, he didn’t take
the bill seriously, either.
The membership of the UFOA
is now reported at 1,174 ie
| Uniformed Fireme'
I} has nearly 8,000 members, while
the civilians in the department
have about 400, all members of an
AFL affiliate,
The UFOA also ts considering
joining the N, Y. State Associa
tion of Fire Fighters, anoti
r
will be considered complete. Aid
of the State organization on the
i desired fire pension board bill
would then be sought, also,
i Overwhelming Majority
I A secret ballot, the results of
which never were publicly an-
nounced, backed the UFOA-UFA

‘The support of Mayor O'Dwyer
is being sought for the bill, The
Mayor has taken no sides to date,
his position being merely one of
holding the matter in abeyance
until clarification develops, That
clarification is now complete.
The preferred pension bill—in
® practical sense, the only one
now remaining—has the support
also of the UPA. The combined
support represents a reconcilia-
tion of prior differences and is
expected to win victory for the bill
in the City Council, since nu-
merous Councilmen said that they
would vote for whatever bill had
the united support of the uni-
formed members of the Fire
Department,
Kane's Plea Fails
Members of American Legion
Post 930, NYC Pire Department,
said “No” to an invitation, in the
form of the DiFalco bill, to give |
them a one-quarter vote on the
F.D. Pension Fund Trustees Board.
At their meeting the Legion
members voted that they didn’t
feel that they belonged on the|
Board, as their purpose was to|
act as a Legion Post, not as part
of
the Fire Department's mem-
rship representation.
Vincent Kane, former President
of the UFA, appeared at the meet-
ing and spoke in favor of the
bill, but his view was voted down
by the men. Mr. Kane is a mem-
ber of the Post
Meetings on
The Executive

meeting on Tuesdays, will}

ports of the meetings will appear

tive Committee.

UFOA Briefs
Members of the UPOA will soon
be wearing grey shirts instead of
the present white. They can’t get
white shirts more than anyone
else, so the rule is changed for
the present to permit grey.
All Firemen and officers can
now go to Yonkers on their time
off-duty. A previous rule of the
FD. made them stay within City
limits except on 32-hour or longer
leaves.
Mutual changes of tours will be
allowed with approval of Deputy
Chiefs in the future,

remodeled to serve as an ambu-

a barbell is available, unless you
can rig one up at
the weight of the barbell gradual-
ly up to sixty pounds. Each time
you practice, start with smaller
weights and build up to the great-
er ones. Don't start in “cold” on
the heaviest weight you have been
using. Don't increase the weights
rapidly. Before you do in-
crease, be sure you are perform-
ing with a lighter weight easily.
Do not try for speed, because that
is not essential and may be dan-
gerous. Practice diligently. It is

ing up exercises first before you
attempt lifting any weight at all.
When you have mastered sixty
pounds, you have reached a hun-

make the weight, don’t strain too
hard because you may do damage.
Tf you feel an undue strain on
your abdominal muscles, ease up.

ROBERT ABELS
400 LEXINGTON AV
Special to The LEADER
WASHINGTON, April 16—The
requirement that an employee
shall be given 30 days’ notice in
reduction-in-force cases, is being
obeyed, a survey showed. Com-
plaints of non-observance, never
numerous, have practically ceased.
The employee is entitled to 30
days, but as a matter of admini-
strative discretion, may be given
more on a non-pald basis.
For purposes of protection of
annual leave and sick leave, how-
ever, separation from service must
have been less than 90 days, when
transfer is effected. This aids
employees who can’t find another
Federal spot in the former 30-day
rights-protection period. The
identical time—30 days—regard-
ing notice of job’s end and former
transfer period—has caused some
misconception that more than 30
days’ notice is required by law. It
isn't

bationery period; and who ts re-
stored to his civilian position, the

Proposed Rule
For Vacations
And Sick Leave
The new provision on vacations
and sick leave in the Terms and
Conditions of the NYC budget
follow:
“Vacations (and Sick Leave):
No person whose compensation is
paid in whole or in part from the
city treasury shall be allowed more
than twenty five days’ vacation
with pay during the fiscal year
1946-7, except that all unexcused
leaves are to be deducted from
vacation allowance. Employees
whose vacations are allowed prior
to July 1, 1946, should, as a mat-
ter of equity, also be limited to
twenty-five days.
“When the work of employees
is seasonal in character the vaca-
tion shall be allowed during the
slack season.”

PAY RISE WON'T STOP
PROMOTIONS IN NYC
July 1 promotions in NYC will
be made on the basis of promot-
ing efficiency, even if the promo-
tions Involve pay increases.
“We are following the same
policy as before,” Budget Direc-
tor Thomas J. Patterson said to-
day, “but will go as much farther
as is reasonable without being
silly. We will promote for effi-
ciency and not because an ell-
gible’s name fs on a promotion
list. We will make as many pro-
1 eae AS are necessary and pos-
sible. The pay increases will be
sranted. They do not represent
any material Increase in personnel
cost,”
The reference to “the same pol-
icy as before” was taken to mean
that efficiency will be the rule,
but the deviation is expected to
be in promotions not being prac-
tically restricted to those already
at the top of the grade from
which they are promoted. To
Promote maximum grade >m-
ployees costs the city $1 a year.
To promote others costs the $1
plus the difference between the
eligibie’s pay and the top salary
of the grade.

VET PREFERENCE BILL SIGNED
Sveciat to The LEADER
ALBANY, April 16.—Governor
Dewey signed the Ostertag bill,
‘amending the Civil Service law in
Felation to preferences to war vet-
erans in appointment, promotion
and retention and repeal of exist~
ing Section 21, It was introduced
in the legislature by Assemblyman
Harold C. Ostertag (R., Wyoming
County).
‘The governor's
follows:
“This bill provides the necessary
legislation to implement the
amendment to the Constitution
which took effect January 1 of
this year, and which provides for
@ temporary preference in ap-
pointment and promotion for vet~
erans and to continue the prefer-
ence for disabled veterans. The
bill ts a product of careful study
and deliberation by many groups
interested in the Civil Service and
in the privileges to be accorded
to veterans. The work of these
various groups was for the most
part done in conjunction with one
another and with agreement
amongst them with regard to most
of the provisions of the measure.
“The bill accomplishes, among
Other things, the following: J
“1, It clarifies the ambiguous
language of the constitutional
amendment to make it clear that
the preference in appointment and
Promotion accorded to non-dis-
abled veterans applies only for a
five-year period.
“2. It corrects the obvious error
in the constitutional amendment
with regard to the preference in
retention that is granted to dis-
abled and non-disabled veterans,
If not corrected, disabled veterans,
would be dropped first regardless
of seniority, where positions are
abolished.
“3. It fixes the time included
by the phrase ‘time of war’ in the
Constitution, It provides that the
Gate of the termination of World
War for the purpose of the
amendment, shall be deemed Sep-
tember 2, 1945. This is in accord-
ance with the bulk of the veteran
legislation in this State.
“4. It implements the manner
of claiming a preference and the
effects thereof upon the certifica~
tion of lists. This will facilitate
the making of claims, avoid litiga-
tion, and yet expédite the admin-
istration of government.
“5. It makes appropriate pro-
vision for the consideration of
Gisability of a veteran disqualify-
ing him for positions where the
disability involves incapacity to
perform the duties of the position,
#6. It provides a penalty for de-
nial of preference in violation of
Provisions of the law,
“This bil is a necessary one
and, In substantial measure, con-
stitutes an excellent meeting of
the problems arising in connection
with the preference for veterans.
‘The provision for a penalty for
denial of preference seems an un-
necessary one as well as undesir-
able. Moreover, the manner of its
draftsmanship ts such that it will
‘unquestionably be @ source of dif-
ficulty and trouble in the future
for veterans as well as administra-
tors. It will certainly be a fertile
source of litigation.
“However, any errors that may
turn up in connection with this
legislation can easily be corrected
in future legislation,
“The bill is approved.”
Text of Bill
The text of the new law clarify
ing the veteran preference amend-
ment follows in full, old matter
being indented, new matter set

Special to The LEADER
ALBANY, April 16—Governor
Dewey vetoed today the Wilson
bill which would have provided
that persons whose names ap-
peared on elvil service list promul~
gated in 1939, for positions as
Policemen or Police Officers in
any village or town and thereafter
appointed temporarily to such po-
sitions or who served in the United

Lists Reasons
“This bill is objectionable for
the following reasons; -
“1. It grants @ special privilege
to eligibles on certain specific lists
based on a temporary appointment
therefrom or on military service
which is not granted to eligibles
on similar lists which may have
been established at other times
during 1939 or later, The records
of this Department indicate that
an eligible list for Patrolman in
the towns and villages of West-
chester County was established on
January 9, 1939, and a similar list
for towns and villages in Erie
County was established on Janu-
ary 18, 1939, Eligibles on such
lists would be covered. However,
eligibles on other lists for Patrol-
men would not be covered,
Discrimination Cited
"2, The bill discriminates be-
tween those eligibles who accepted
temporary appointments and those
who would only accept permanent
appointments from the lists in-
volved, It also discriminates be-
tween those eligibles who entered
military service and those who
served with the Merchant Marine
or with the Red Cross overseas.
It also grants @ special privilege
to those veterans of World War IT
who were on the Hst (although
not reachable for appointment
therefrom) over those veterans of
World War II, who were not on
the eligible list,
“3. Although the dill grants a
special privilege to a relatively
small group of persons, if it is en-
acted into law it would open the
door for similar requests by other
groups of persons, which could
not logically be refused. The in-
stant bill is, therefore, an enter-
ing wedge and cannot be defended
on the ground that it only effeots
demotion shall be made in the
Pe pone () Non-veter- |
ans; ) Non-disabled veterans
(3) Disabled veterans, and any
such suspension or demotion shall,
in each such category, be made
in the inverse order of tie date
of original appointment in the
service. In the event of the aboli- *
tion or elimination of any -
tion in the labor class in ¢!
any suspension or demotion shall
be made in the following order:
(1) Non-veterans; (2) Non-dis-
abled veterans; (3) Disabled vet-
erans,
5. Duration of preferences in
appointment and promotion
granted to non-disabled veterans,
The preferences in appointment
and promotion granted to non+
disabled veterans shall be in effect ,
to and including the thirty-first
day of December, nineteen hun-
dred fifty, except that In the case
of non-disabled veterans honor
ably discharged or released under |
honorable circumstances on or
after the first day of Ji
nineteen hundred forty-six,
preferences granted herein
be in effect for a period of five
years from the date of their hon-
orable discharge or release under
honarble circumstances, |
6. Eligible lists to which pref-
erences are applicable. The pref- |
erence in appointment and pro-
motion granted herein shall be
applicable to all lists in existence
on and after the first day of Jan-
uary, nineteen hundred forty-six,
7. Penalty for denial of preter |
ence, A refusal to allow the pref-+
erences provided for in this sec-
tion to any veteran or disabled
veteran, or a reduction of his
compensation intended to bring
about his resignation, shall be
deemed a misdemeanor, and any
such veteran or disabled veteran
shall have a right of action there~
for in any court of competent
Jurisdiction for damages and for
righting the wrong.
