Administration Pay Case Is Incredibly Weak

THE ADMINISTRATION'S case against a pay raise to State employees is outlined in Budget Director T. Norman Kurd's letter of January 19, a document whose arguments were probed in a LEADER editorial last week.

We do not believe this letter is the entire case of the administra-tion. We feel that the administration is actinp: also on the assumption tha t the cost-of-living has already reached its peak, and on the as-sumption that it may recede. And we feel tha t political considerations must have had more than a little inlluence. If tac.se two factors do indeed exist, then two simple re.sponses are indicated: State employees ought not to be penalized oa so precarious an argument as the as-sumption of an economic down turn; nor ought .they to ,be injured for political reasons.

But the publicly-presented case resides in Mr. Kurd's letter. Our editorial examination In the Issue of January 27 found that letter to be a network of subtle, but palpably fallaciou.s, argiiments. More could b« said about it.

The St.a(<e Salary There wa^i, for example, the striking argument tha t "average"

State salary has risen 116 percent between 1942 and 1952. If one looks a t the pay increases of typical State jobs, one sees no support for anything even remotely apijroaching a 116'',b figure. Some pay in-creases have risen as little tu CG jjercent, some as much as 78 or 80%. Tlie 116',r figure has under.standingly aroused the ire of State em-ployees, because Vhey can easily see in their own pay checks the per-centage of difference in the past decade. It might perhaps be stated tha t this argument—and what State employees deem the clear injus-tice of such a statement—has hardened them into a strong determina-tion to figiit through for a better salary deal.

Everything Dumped Into Tha t 116% Mr. Kurd's 1167o figure is fallacious for other resusons. Into this

are dumped a load of factors which are no more to be considered pay raises than overtime pay is to be considered a pay raise. But what Li this? The Budget Director DOES include overtime pay!

The 116 percent figure is erroneous (among other reasons,) be-cause:

1. It includes overtime pay 2. It includes increments 3. I t builds up by using the substandard wages paid State em-

ployees before the Feld-Hamilton law went into effect 4. It includes reallocation of positions 5. It includes reclassifications 6. It includes promotions 7. I t includes the value of maintenance, wliich used to be pro-

vided and then was translated into ca^h value. None of these are pay increases, as every employee, every ad-

ministrator, every legislator, and every budget director knows. They were used during negotiations, as were all the arguments advanced by the Budget Director, The points were answered by the negotiators for the Civil Service Employees Association; and Mr. Kurd repeated them in his now-celebrated letter. I That Rejected Pay Survey ' Sources cited by the Civil Service Employees Association indi-cate that average weekly earnings in private industry has risen 8 percent; hourly earnings 6 percent. The administration's own salary survey showed State salaries 6.7 percent behind private pay. But this sui-vey was rejected by Mr. Kurd! I t didn't come out in a way that was favorable to the administration, but ra ther in a way to help the employees, so the administration repudiated its own facts and figures.

'Fringe' Benefits ' L The case made out by the Budget Director Is fantastically weak.

State Senator Walter J. Mahoney, chairman of the Commission on Co-ordination of State Activities, lias introduced a bill to reorganixe the State Civil Service Commission. A bill to accomplish the some purpose, introduced in the 1952 Legslature, met a tremendous array of opposition. This year, however, the measure has gained substantial approvol and

seems liiiely to pass.

Legislators Hear from Home: Employees Make It Clear They W a n t a Pay Increase

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — The stream of mail to legislators and State officials protesting the State ad-ministration's refusal to grant pay

Dewey Budget Message Recommends Continued Bonus, But No Pay Raise

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — Governor Tliomas E. Dewey's budget mes-»age, delivered to the State Legis-lature laiit Thursday, has only a •liort passage concerned with em-ployee pay. As anticipated, it makes no provisions for an in-crease, thus carrying through tlie policy enunciated by State Budget Director T. Normau Kurd. Present emergency incre^f l l will be con-tinued, Under t l^lFcurrent opera-tions" section of the message. tli« Governor provides for an Of $4.3 million to cont inu. «ie •MMot «iiiergency compensatioa

program; and an Increase of million in General State Charges, including $3.8 million for contri-butions to the State Employees Retirement Fund.

The total amount in the recom-mended - budget for emergency compensation, all State depart-ments, is $33.2 million. Last year, it was $28.9 million.

Same Agencies («et More Several State departments get

Increases for specific purposes, but not for the purposes of enlarging pay.

An Increase of $224,000 is recom-meaded fof tht Division oX State

Police, "chiefly because the sub-stantial salary increases of 1952 have facilitated the filling of va-cancies." The sum allotted for this Division is adequate to brinjf the force to a full strength of 899 men, the Governor said.

Increased Allotments The Conservation Department is

allotted an increase of $224,000 largely for mandated pay increases and increased facilities in the Di-vision of Parks.

Other departments getting in-creases for their functional duties are Correction, Education, Health, Mental Hygiene, Public Works.

increases continues to grow in Al-bany.

Resolutions and petitions from employee groups, including Civil Service Employees Association chapters and others, are helping swell the flood.

The State has told representa-tives of the CSEA that it will not grant the requested 10 percent pay increase nor will it freeze in the two temporary cushions now being paid. Further, Budget Di-rector T. Norman Hurd told Presi-dent Jesse B. McFarland and his salary team the State would not set up a new salary scale at this time.

The three objectives had been accepted by the Association as parts of its program in reference to salaries this year.

One of the first groups to regi-ster a protest, following the initial objection from McFarland on be-half of the CSEA, was the Senior and Employment Interviewers As-sociation of the State Department of Labor.

They're Shocked Tills group wrote all legislators

stating it was "deeply shocked by the blunt announcement tha t State civil service employees would not receive any consideration this year

(Continued on pags 26t

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — Although faced with a flat turn-down of its pay raise requests, the Civil Serv-ice Employees Association is pro-ceeding to developu a state-wide campaign of cumulative action on the issue.

Last week, an emergency meet-ing of the Association's officers laid plans for a drive each step of which would be orchestrated in a tempo of increasing intensity.

Bills Intro'duced Two bills were introduced in th®

Legislature on Monday. February 2, one providing for an over-all 10 percent pay increase for State employees; the other calling for a freeze-in of existing bonuses.

At the same time, there has been a spontaneous flow of resolutions, visits to legislators, telegrams and letters from State employees to legislators, and special meetings. In the course of the campaign pro-jected by the Association's officers, this spontaneous outburst will probably be channelized, timed and intensified for greater effective-ness.

The Four Prongs The plans laid at the meeting

held in Albany last week Included these facets, to be instituted pro-gressively as the needs of the sit-uation require:

1. There will be an emergency meeting of the Board of Directors, perhaps this week, at which deci-sions will be made Implementing the rest of the program.

2. The Directors' assemblage is likely to be followed by an emer-gency meeting—first of its kind—• of the organization's delegates, who would be called to Albany the succeeding week in special sessioa on the pay question.

Letter Campaign 3. The present spontaneous let-

ter-writing would be organized into a flow of unprecedented enormity, aimed at every legislator, and di-rected to the senators and assem-blymen from their own home con-stituents. A similar flow of letters would engulf the administration. The reaction of State employees to Budget Director T. Norman Hurd's denial of a pay raise as-sures the strength of such a cam-paign. A letter-^^riting drive loosed upon State officials is seen as prob-ably bringing forth one of th« greatest volumes they have ever re-ceived.

4. Every legislator will be visited by employee representatives among his constituents. At the "grass-roots" level, too, other organiza-tions and local media of publicity would be recruited into the cam-paign.

Door Left Open Mr. Hurd's letter left the door

open for resumption of negotia-tions. There is some question in the minds of certain Association fimctionaries, however, whether negotiation with the Governor's representatives should resume at all. The feeling expressed here Is tha t negotiations are useless if an adament attitude precludes any possibility of arriving at a meeting of minds.

Involved in Negotiations Involved in the negotiations wer»

three elements: (1) an across-the-board pay raise; (2) freeze-in; (3) creation of a new salary schedule. Mr. Hurd has turned down all three proposals. The LEADEa learns tha t one of the adminis-tration's reasons for the flat "No!"* is the feeling tha t the top of th« inflationary trend has been reached, and that some groups oi State employees have fared bettev than employees in private indus-try. Mr. Hurd claimed State env-ployees were 116 percent better off than they had been in Octobaf 1942. This figure has been con« demned as fallacious by the ne -gotiators for the Civil Service Eo^

Iployees Afisociatioa.

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — Civil Service employees would no longer face the possibility of receiving a reduction In salary when promoted to a higher position if a bill presented to the Legislature last week by State Senator Seymour Hal pern is enswted. The measure to wipe out this paradox is one of nine civil service bills placed before the Leg-islature by the Queens Senator.

The bill was sponsored in the Assembly by Assemblyman Fred W. Preller.

Retirement at Age 50 A second bill sponsored would

permit a member of the New York City Retirement System who has at least 25 years of service, to re-tire at age of 50, but to receive no retirement pay until age 55 (the present retirement age). "The chief value of this measure," Halpern pointed out, "is to protect the pen-sion interest of the civil service employee who may find it necessary to leave civil service before reach-ing the retirement age of 55. Such an employee is now forced to re-sign and despite long service he loses his pension rights." Thomas Dwyer introduced the measure in the Assembly. '

Removal for Cause A third bill, with Assemblyman

Edward T. Galloway of the Bronx as co-sponsor, provides tha t no civil service employee who has served for a period of ten years or more may be removed except for incompetency or misconduct shown after a hearing upon due notice of stated charges.

Evidence of Disability Under the terms of the fourth

bill, with Assemblyman Savarese as the Assembly sponsor. State em-ployees would be permitted to pro-duce medical evidence of their dis-abilities in support of their claims for disability retirement. "Under the present law," Senator Halpern explained, "an employee is per-mitted to be represented by coun-sel on an appeal but he is not per-mitted to present the vital evidence of his physician."

Unemployment Insurance The fifth bill, sponsored by Sena-

tor Halpern and Assemblyman Thomas H. Brown of Rensselaer, provides unemployment insurance

coverage for per diem and houatf paid employees.

In a sixth bill, tlie seniority rights of civil service employees In the labor class would be protected by requiring tha t if they are dis-missed or separated from service^ their service will be terminated In Inverse order of seniority. Rein-statements in cases of dismissal will likewise be made in accord-ance with seniority. The bill give« the rights of seniority which ar« now granted in private industry to a large class of civil servant! who may be discharged through no fault of their own.

A seventh bill, with Assembly-man Samuel Rabin as co-sponsor,, would grant protection similar to the above bill to those in the "non-competitive" as well as labos classes of civil service.

Filling Promotions From H Labor Class '

An eighth bill proposed to pef»-mit the Civil Service Commission to fill vacancies by examination among groups in the labor and non-competitive classes whoM positions are similar to those they are seeking to obtain in the com-petitive class. This would conform to the practice of the New York CJity Civil Service Commission which has held promotion exami-nations for employees in the labor class, particularly in the asphalt service. In July 1951 the Supreme Court indicated tha t this extreme-ly valuable practice could not con-tinue without an amendment to the law. This amendment would overcome the Court's objectiorus.

Pension Credit Another measure sponsored \9t

Senator Halpern and Assembly-man Savarese provides pension credit for time on the preferred list between January 1, 1932 and December 31, 1938 for members o< ten or more years in service pro-vided tha t they pay in their shar* of the contribution to the system. This measure takes care of thoas employees who through no faul t of their own were laid off durinc the depression years on account of lack of city funds and who wer® put on the preferred lists. A great many of them worked on the fed-eral aid projects but received mm pension credit.

He continued by saying tha t he felt fu r ther negotiations with the Budget Director on these vital problems will be continued.

Pays Tribute to Legislators Mr. Kelly paid t r ibute to both

CSEA Annual Dinner Set For March 7

ALBANY, Feb 2 — The annual dinner of the Civil Service Em-ployees Association will be held on Saturday, March 7, in the ball-room of the Powers Hotel, Ro-chester.

This is the first time tha t the gala event is being held outside Albany. I t is expected tha t high State dignitaries will at tend.

There will be a morning meet-ing and dinner in the evening.

The invitation to hold the din-ner in Rochester came originally f rom Raymond L. Munroe, 2nd vice-president of the Association, who presented a folder of invita-tions f rom the City itself.

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — As revealed m last week's LEADER, a bill to reorganize the Sta te Civil Service Commission has gone before the Legi.slature.

All signs point to swift passage of the legislation, as proponents and former opponents of the leg-i.slation came together on a pro-gram tha t is satisfactory to both sides. The Democratic minority will support the new legislation.

The bill, introduced by Senator Walter J . Mahoney, chai rman of the Commission on Coordination of Sta te Activities, does these things:

1. Continues the bi-part isan three-man Civil Service Commis-sion;

2. Permits the Governor to designate the Commission presi-dent.

3. Vests in the Commission su-pervision over municipal civil ser-vice commissions, rule-making power, and the power to hear and act on appeals;

4. Administrative duties are vested in the hands of the Com-mission president.

Governor Dewey, who had long sought to revise the form of the Civil Service Commission, will ob-ta in enactment of the legislation without a fight such as killed a bill last year for the purpose of altering the Civil Service Commis-sion structure.

Part ic ipants in the negotiations leading to the compromise meas-ure all issued s ta tements concern-ing it. The Governor said:

"The bill efTectively accomplishes the objectives I outlined in my An-nual Message, vesting in a single administrator the responsibility for discharging the administrative functions of the department . At the same time, it retains the bi-part isan commission with appel-late, rulemaking and supervisory powers for the protection of the merit system.

"The proposal is the result of the combined efforts cf the Co-ordination Commission, the Civil Service Commission and the Civil Service Employees Association, and it is a pleasure to pay tr ibute to them for their wholehearted co-operation. I t is endorsed by all of them and the Civil Service Re-form Association.

The change in depar tmental organization, a major govern-mental advance, designed as it is to place accountability in one person, will permit the fullest utilization of modern personnel methods. I am happy tha t agree-ment has been at ta ined and urge prompt approval of the legisla-tion."

Senator Mahoney said: "The reorganization bill Is a

positive forward step in promotion of the principles of merit and fi t-ness." said Senator Mahoney. " I t makes possible Civil Service De-par tment reorganization leading to a speedup of recruitment and ex-amination processes and consid-eration of employee problems.

"The measure nas been draf ted to represent, insofar as possible the common views of oxir Coordin-ation Commission, the Civil Serv-ice Employees Association, the Civil Service Commission, the Civil Service Reform Association, and other interested agencies and groups, following a series of con ferences. I t has been assured of the full support of each.

"The fact t h a t full agreement

was reached is a tr ibute to th® sincere efforts of representatives of the Employees' and Reform .As-sociations and the Civil Service Commission to cooperate with our Coordination Commission in m a k -ing possible this significant a d -vance In our S ta te personnel m a n -agement."

Sta tement by McFarland Jesse B. McFarland, President

of the Civil Service Employees As-sociation, in a letter to Governor Dewey, s ta ted:

"Proposals formulated a t recent conferences at tended by our rep-resentatives and representatives of other organizations and govern-mental agencies to efTect a reor-ganization of the Civil Service De-par tment were presented to t h s Board of Directors of the Associa-tion at its meeting on Thursday-January 22, 1953.

The Board, a f te r full discussion,, adopted a resolution In which they reiterate their approval in pr in-ciple of the s tand taken by this Association since 1949 in connec-tion with this extremely perplex-ing problem.

I am authorized by the Board to inform you t h a t the Association,, In keeping with its determination to improve the efficiency of the Merit System so long as f u n d a -mental safeguards are retained,, will endorse and support legisla-tion which contains tne following basic provisions:

1. There shall be in the Depar t -ment of Civil Service a tripartiteg bipartisan commission with ade-quate compensation for the Com-missioners who shall act on a full time basis.

2. The Governor shall have the right to designate one of the com-mission members to serve as Presi-dent of the Commission.

3. The following powers now vested in the Commission shall be expressly reserved to the Commis-sion:

(a) Supervision over municipal civil service commissions In their administration of the Merit Sys-tem in the political subdivisions.

(b) Quasi-legislative powers with the exclusive right to fo rmu-late rules for governance and ad-ministration of the Merit System.

(c) Appellate powers in con-nection with disciplinary proceed-ings.

(d) Appellate powers in connec-tion with appeals regarding con-stitutional preference granted t a veterans.

(e) Appellate powers in all a p -peals arising f rom charges of dis-loyalty or discrimination in em-ployment in Sta te service.

4. The President of the Commis-sion shall be designated as the head of the Depar tment of Civil Service. In t h a t capacity he shall Initiate all the functions presently exercised by the Commission ex-cept those funct ions enumerated above which are expressly reserved to the Commission.

5. The Commission is to be vested with power to hear appeals f rom any person or agency ag-grieved by a determination made by the President under the power to Initiate exercised by him.

" I t appears to us t ha t such leg-islation would Insure increased efficiency In the administration of the Merit System and at the same time reserve in the tradit ional bi -part isan commission the sa fe-guards which we feel are vital t a the protection of t ha t System."

Only 9.3 Percent Pass Police Sergeant Test

Failure notices in the sergeant <P.D.) promotion test were mailed out last week by the NYC Civil Service Commission.

The statistics on the exam fol-low: Candidates . . . .9,587 Withdrew 381 Failed 8.211 Passed 995

Thus only 9.3 percent passed, when those who withdrew are in-cluded among the competitors, and 90.7 percent failed.

10,000 Applied Par t I was failed by 8,083, Pa r t

n by 126. This was one of the most popu-

lar promotion tests, more than 10,-000 patrolmen having applied.

The present list would expire March 29, but as t h a t is a Sunday, it will be good until the next day. EfTortfi will be made by eligibles to

Trooper Loses In Promotion Court Case

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — Supreme Court Justice Isadore Bookstein, sitting in Albany, has denied the application of a State Trooper for a review of his ra t ing in a 1951 promotion examination.

Trooper Theodore W. DeLuca had taken a promotion test for corporal December 18, 1951. He passed the written test with a mark of 90.80 to which was given a relative weight of 4, resulting in a net mark of 36.32.

His service record ra t ing was 74 to which was given a relative weight of 6 or 44.40.

The combined result was 80.72, to which was added a veteran's preference of 2.50 for a final total of 83.22. This gave him 22nd plac« on the resulting eligible list.

Charges Bias DeLuca complained tha t his

Immediate superior, who had made the service record rating, had been biased against him and a r -gued tha t the rat ing should be re-viewed and raised.

He challenged the decision against this course, made by State Police Superintendent John A. GafTney and took the mat ter into Supreme Court in Albany county, December 12, 1952.

After considering arguments from both sides Judge Bookstein denied DeLuca's motion for review of Gaffney's decision on the prin-cipal basis t ha t the service record rating was made prior to the exam by a superior officer who had daily opportunity not only to ob-serve all of his actions but to com-pare him with his fellow troopers.

obtain a sizeable number of pro-motions on or before March 30, effective April 1.

The pay of a sergeant Is |5 .30a total.

200 on Present List There are about 200 names re-

maining on the present sergeant list. The new list will not be es-tablished until a f te r record and seniority are computed, and av-eraged with the results of the written test. The statistics will be the same in the overall result as for the written test, since the minimum for record and seniority is itself equal to the passing mark in the written test.

The Municipal Civil Service Commission is satisfied with the number of eligibles on the pros-pective list, since it feels t h a t the list will prove large enough to meet the needs of the service.

More Promotions Sought Efforts will be made by sergeant

eligibles to get more sergeant pro-motions, so t h a t their list will be used up. Police Commissioner George P. Monaghan said tha t , to expedite promotions, they will be made weekly, instead of wait-ing until a number of vacancies accumulate, as previou.sly.

The Commission has a general policy of not bringing out a new list in a title, especially a promo-tion title, while an old prior li.st still exists, as the new one would kill the old one. However, many

Conferences Substantial, Says W e n z l

ALBANY, Feb. 2 — Tlie em-ployee Conference idea has be-come mature, Dr. Theodore Wenzl stated last week, and ways are now being explored to make it a more useful ins t rument for the achievement of employee aims.

Dr. Wenzl. who is chairman of the Conference Committee of the Civil Service Employees Associa-tion, s tated t ha t the "family s t ructure" of the Conferences and the parent body needs to be re-examined.

Five Conferences There are five Conferences in

the Association, each covering a geographical area of the State. The five are: The Metropolitan Conference, covering the New York City metropolitan area; the South-ern Conference, covering the lower Hudson Valley; the Capital District Conference, covering Al-bany and surrounding counties; the Central Conference, covering the whole central tier and proceed-ing to the northernmost borders of New York State; and the Western

In an address to the Metropoli-tan Conference of the Civil Serv-ice Employees Association, S ta te Senator Seymour Halpern (R. Queens), said t h a t State employees deserve, and must receive, a pay increase. He promised t h a t he would do all within his power to help them to get it.

Although Governor Thomas E. Dewey, in his budget, made no provision for such a raise, and the State Budget Director J . Norman Hurd argued tha t the cost-of-liv-ing index doesn't warrant g ran t -ing one, in the light of previous raises, Senator Halpern counselled an intensive wage campaign. He told his audience to spread the word throughout the Association

committee of the Association r e -lating to accident and heal th i n -surance, and the need for es tab-lishing a more satisfactory method of grievance ad jus tment in Statu service.

Annual Dinner The chai rman reported t h a i

group round tickets to Rochester^ to a t tend the annual dinner, to bo held on Saturday, March 7, a t Ro-chester, could be obtained for $18.40, Instead of the individual rate of $26.51, by communicating with A1 Greenberg, State I n s u r -ance Fund, 625 Madison AvenuOi, NYC.

The delegates rose and observed a minute 's silence in respect for

tha t the fight w a r norTost anS that every member should lend ac-tive support to the pay campaign.

•No Compromise' "The quality of the services

rendered by the State can not be higher t han the morale of the em-ployes," said Senator Halpern, "nor better t h a n the degree to which the merit system is ob-served.

"You employees are asking for another pay increase because of the rise in the cost of living. You are actually entitled to t ha t in-crease and should get it.

"I am with you 100 percent. I s tand ready to help you with the sponsoring of legislation, if no agreement is reached between you and the Budget Director."

St Obstacle Removed; B , 0 0 0 Pensioners to Get Bigger Checks from NYC

C I V I C S E R T I C E L E A D E R Page Firm

The last roadbloclc against the t r an t ing of supplemental pen-•ions, under a Local Law voted

the council, was removed last freek when the NYC Board of Bstlmate approved rules and regu-lations. About 8,000 benefit.

The necessary blanks are now t j^ ing printed.

To obtain a .supplementary pen-m o n a retired NYC employee must

111 out and notarize a request, on official form. These forms will

mailed out from the retirement ijrstems' lists of those apparently

eligible. However, anybody who feels he's eligible, and doesn't get a form before the end of next month, should apply to his re-tirement .system for one.

The benefit would expire by March 31, 1953, which is only next month, unless the law is re-newed. The D6wey Administration has Introduced a two-year renewal bill for retired State employees. NYC followed the State pattern in setting up its own supplemental pension bill, and is likely to follow the State lead again.

NYC P o l i c e Commissioner >rge P. Monaghan, In his de-

Dartmental budget estimate, asked toe the same sized uniformed force for 1953-54 as he has this budget year.

The Commissioner submitted his proposed patrolman appointment

schedule: October 1, 1953 and January 1, 1954, a t 250 each; April 1, at 220, and June 16 at 200.

He did not, however, rule out the possibility of requesting an In-crease in the quota later, and noted tha t previous Commissioners have advocated a force of 25,000.

He asked tha t captains be given 10 annual increments of $50 each, instead of $250 af ter five years and another S250 af ter 10 years. Increments for lieutenants and sergeants were requested, also.

The budget year starts on July 1, 1954.

A special meeting of delegates of the Civil Service Employees A.sso-ciation to push for a 10 percent raise in salary was requested in a resolution of the executive board of the New York City chapter last Thursday.

Start ing as a springboard to bring similar action from all the other CSEA organizations in the State, the resolution, as stated by Sol Bendet, president of the New York City chapter, is "Resolved, tha t the CSEA call a meeting of all the chapters of the Association to advocate passage of the 10 per-cnt salary increase while the Leg-islature is in session; and tha t the New York City chapter write to all the other CSEA chapters request-ing their support on the action."

Encouraged to Write The delegates were asked to en-

courage the civil service em-ployees to write to the State legis-lators of their own districts and to Governor Thomas E. Dewey, Walter J . Mahoney, head of the Senate Finance Committee, Arthur H. Wicks, president pro tem of the Senate, Oswald D. Heck, speaker of the Assembly, and William H. Mac-kenzie, chairman of the Senate Ways and Means Committee.

"November 3, it was publicly swd tha t the civil service employees must have a pay raise, tha t they could not maintain a proper s tan-dard of living without it," Mr. Bendet explained. "Then on Janu-ary 9, it was said tha t there could be no pay raise, tha t the employ-ees didn't need it, and tha t they were overpaid in many instances," he continued.

A plan for wide publicity of the

employees' case, which had been made at a meeting January 24, of the Board of Directors of the Asso-ciation, was discussed by the group and the delegates decided to urge tha t the plan be put into action a t once.

"Joe Byrnes Night" Special recognition is to be given

Joseph J. Byrnes, treasurer of the New York City chapter Executive Board for the past 18 years, who has been a member of the chapter for 20 years, at the next meeting, February 26. That meeting is to be called "Joe Byrnes night," to honor him for his long service to the organization.

A decision to spend $420 to send delegates to the State Association convention March 7, at the Poweri Hotel in Rochester, was made by the group. Delegates will be a n -nounced soon by Mr. Bendet. No set number of delegates was de-cided upon, the chapter will send as many delegates as it can for the money appropriated.

Raising Pay Is Better Than Lowering Pass Mark An unenviable task is imposed on civil service commis-

sions when they are expected to recruit for jobs that pay much less than is paid elsewhere.

One course is to lower the pass mark. The NYC Com-mission has been compelled to resort to this device in Tarious exams. The pass mark is set low enough to permit Tilling the needs of the service." If this is not a travesty on the merit system, what is? Salaries must be in line, or the merit system will totter.

Two recent examples are the pass marks for junior 'draftsman, 68 percent, and engineering assistant, 64. The City has extreme difficulty filling engineering and draft-ing jobs because of low pay. It has advertised some en--gineering exams without getting a single applicant.

The need for a reclassification, with salary upgradings, fe obvious. No time should be lost in straightening out the dangerous tangle.

(/. S. If self Qualifies In Exam Speed Tesf When the need for speedy hiring arises, the U. S. Civil

Service Commission has shown that it is well able to nope with it.

First, stenographers and typists were in great de-mand by Federal agencies in NYC, so the Second Regional Office of the Commission held exams fast, rated the papers the same day, and certified those who passed, in a few idays.

Now, confronted with the need of filling clerk-carrier Jobs even faster in the New York, N. Y. post office, it is feiving applicants an opportunity to take an exam the :fery day after they hand in their applications. The papers are rated the same day or night, and telegrams to those Iwho pass get an interview call in the same envelope, being hired in some case two days after the test. That's mighty fast action.

V/haf H appens fo fhe Of her Fellow Affecfs You Civil service is indivisible. What affects one group of

employees inevitably will have impact on another. iOne evidence of this is seen in the uneasy attitude of NYC •mployees about the repudiation of a pay raise for State •mployees. The NYC aides are fully aware of the fact that failure of the State administration to recognize the need of a pay increase will be a powerful weapon in the )iands of City authorities in dealing with NYC employees, i The concern is legitimate. If the State administration •hould remain immovable, the ramifications will be felt Hot only in the lives of State employees, but in the living ieonditions of public employees in other units of govern-ment as well. ' It's another reason why the fight of State civil servants for better salary treatment is so important.

THE ISSUE OF PAY FOR HAZARDOUS WORK Editor. The LEADER:

We would like to thank you for publishing the letter of Mrs. Mar-grette S. Dale of Craig Colony, in the January 20 issue of The LEADER.

The letter reminds us tha t we a t Newark State School and es-pecially at South Dormitory are not alone on the issue of hazard-ous pay. There probably are sev-eral hundred more employees throughout the State who should join us and protest this condition.

South Dorm has sixteen em-ployees earning or should say de-serving hazardous pay. But there are thirteen of us who do not re-ceive it. Some of us have five to eight years of service in this ward, and we lost the extra pay at the time of the 5th increment. Some of the employees only drew 71/2 percent for a few months. Still others have transferred here two or three years ago and haven't received any part of it.

This Injustice is due primarily to thf "heretofore" and "where-as" phrasing in the ruling on this matter. We think tha t the ruKng could and should be changed so tha t all employees on such wards as ours would draw this extra pay af ter the probation period has been served.

QUESTIONS DELAY IN STORES CLERKS RE-ALLOCATION Editor, The LEADER:

Articles by stores clerks calling for re-allocation of their salary grades have been appearing in The LEADER from time to time.

The logic of their case for a change in grade is entirely with-out question. Yet, why does it take all these months since their ap-peal was heard to affirm or deny this claim?

One could well understand the delay if the decision affected sev-eral hundred employees who had a doubtful case, but there are only 34 permanently-filled stores clerks' items in the State Department of Mental Hygiene, as of September last, out of a possible 62 items.

When a stores clerk writes in behalf of the stores clerks, this is as one would expect it, but when

principal stores clerk does so, then the justice of their appeal must be convincingly obvious. The stores clerks of the State owe a deep debt of gratitude to John O'Brien, principal stores clerk at Middletown State Hospital, for his recent article in The LEADER, in which he defends their claim for a higher salary grade.

I wish personally to congratu-late Mr. O'Brien and sincerly hope that his article will contribute In some measure toward convincing J. Earl Kelly, director of classifi-cation and compensation, of the glaring need for re-allocatlon of the salary grade of stores clerks.

CIVIL SERVICE

N E W S

BEING quietly boomed for the presideney of the State Civil Service Commission is Dr. William Ronan, research director of UM Mahoney Commission which came up with the bill to reorganize th« State's top personnel agency. Dr. Rmian has recently been named dean of the New York University School of Public Administration. . . . The scuttlebut is that J. Edward Conway, present head of the CivU Service Commission, would be moved into another important State joK

ASSUMING tha t the Mahoney civil service reorganization MH will be passed. Albany observers are speculating tha t soon af ter July 1. the efTective date of the measure, large changes will occur in th« department. . , . Talk is tha t of the present three commissioners^ only one — Democrat Alex Falk — will remain . . . t ha t the training division, personnel council, personnel relations board, will undergo wide reorganization. . . . The bill brings the pay of the Commission president up to $16,900, but drops the pay of the two other members to $10,000 base. . . ,

THE U. S. Civil Service Commissionerships seem to have a much stronger attraction for the Mitchells than for the Flemmings. Th« post of Chairman has been offered to Arthur S. Flemming, president of Ohio Weslyan University and a former U. S. Civil Service Com-missioner. He likes his college job better, and thinks tha t serving on President Eisenhower's government reorganization committee ia enough. But if the Chairman of the Commission is also made the chief personnel officer of the U. S. government, and sits in at Cabinet meetings, and President Eisenhower asks Mr. Flemming to put in, say. a year at it. he may accept. If not. the chairmanship may be offered to another Republican, an incumbent Commissioner. James M. Mitchell, or to James P. Mitchell, vice president of Bloomingdale's, a NYC department store. A receiTt^former president of the Commissioa was still another Mitchell — James B. Mitchell of Oregon.

THE PROVISIONALS in the NYC Board of Transportation will drop by about a thousand, and suddenly, witliin a month. The motor-man promotion and maintainer 's helper. B, open-competitive lists are being certified to fill about 500 vacancies in each. The Board, which had 12,000 provisionals five years ago, will soon have only 2,000, despite the vacancies created when the 40-hour week was com-pleted July 1 last.

NOT ADEQUATELY covered were the comments on news and newswriting by Governor Dewey on January 14 at the annual Alex-ander Hamilton dinner. Some excerpts: . . bad news is news and good news is not news. For example, operating the best mental heal th system in the world is not news. It only becomes news when one em-ployee out of 20,000 makes a mistake. . . . I t is scarcely ever news tha t great departments in City. State or Federal government operate efficiently and with fine service to the people. . . . I t is a tragedy t h a t the charge made by an accuser is often f ront page news but the answer is too often found in two sticks on page 26. I t is also too often true tha t plain errors appear on page 1 and the later correction is in a small box on page 47."

THE SENECA COUNTY Home has just one patient, costs $20,000 a year to run. . . . The county jointed the State Retirement System on March 17, 1952. But oddly, none of its employees are yet covered. . . . The Wayne County Civil Service Commission won't hear appeals be-cause the Board of Supervisors didn't authorize them.

ONE OF THESE DAYS the State Legislature might have a look a t the methods used by local units of government in purchasing for community needs. . . . It 's probable tha t some highly interesting facts would come out to explain why so much local buying is done close to the chest. . . .

TSK, TSK, TSK. There's a director of a TB Sanitarium (Onon-daga) who decreed tha t laundry workers, groundsmen, housekeepers and others must be on the job 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Their former hours were 7:30 to 4. The inter-urban bus, which used to bring these workers to their jobs at the right time, arrives at 7:10 a.m.. giving the workers a 50-minute wait before beginning work. I t leaves at 4:10 p.m., 20 minutes too early under the new schedule; and there's no other bus until 7 p.m. The workers try to hitch rides, or walk up a high hill. When the workers protested to the director, his answer was: "If you don't like it, get another job!" Upshot is this: there's no reason a t all why the hours of these workers have to be "uniform." We had thought tha t this type of directorial atti tude went out of fashion long ago. Maybe Mr. Callahan, Mental Hygiene director of personnel^ ought to look into this. If not. the employees have a clear case to bring before the Personnel Relations Board.

r a t UvomnlxnU wtn mleotedof December 31.1852.

By H. J. BERNARD THERE ARE some special as-

pects of the U. S. income tax tha t taxpayers should watch closely .so tha t they will gain the maximum benefit. These include the smaller tax for heads of households if they are in a tax bracket higher than the lowest; tax and interest de-duction for home owners; and modified tax exemption for cer-tain pensioners.

The tax on the lowest income bracket, to $2,000 of taxable in-come, Is 22.2 percent, and rises for succeeding brackets, but for heads of households rises less than for others. A head of a household, for instance, would be a person who contributes more than half to the cost of support of some close relative. (Usually the taxpayer is single). A fa ther supporting his children and his wife, would not be, for Income tax purposes, the head of a household and would not enjoy the lower tax rate.

The age or financial condition oS

the dependent is immaterial under U. S. Income tax law. Answer the questions at bottom of Page 2 on Long-Form 1040, and figure the tax from the back page of the free instruction booklet the Fed-eral Government supplies. Use the r ight-hand column, which shows the lower tax rates, for the head of a household. Enter the tax on Line 7, Page 3 of the return.

The owner of a one-family house, which he occupies with his family, is entitled to deduct real estate taxes paid, and interest on mortgage. This is a personal de-duction, meaning tha t it applies even in the absence of any income from the property. The deductions would be made in two separate places on Page 2 of the return — opposite the Interest box and op-posite the Taxes box. Note tha t the deduction is 100 percent.

If one does have a tenant, since the tax and interest charges are deductible 100 percent as a per-sonal deduction, ihey are sUll de-

ductible 100 percent. Tha t is t rue whether the tenant occupies th« entire house or only part of t he house, because having a t enan t can increase, but cannot decrease the amount charged off for taxea and interest.

Case of Having a Tenant Cost of repairs and maintenance

may be deducted, if one has a tenant, but only in the proportion of the tenancy. If the owner of a two-family house rents half of it to a tenant and occupies the other half himself, the total repair and maintenance cost is computed, but since the tenant occupies only half the premises, only half these costs may be deducted. If the tenant occupies one-quarter of the premises, one-quarter of the total is deductible; if his occupancy ia ;hree-quarters, then three-quartere of the total is deductible.

Confusion may arise when th« real estate report is ipude on Page 2 of the . return, unden Schedule F, I n c e ^ from Renta and Royalties, ancMaxes and i n -terest included there. If so i n -cluded, they should be separately stated, af ter the tenancy fract ion Is applied to the other costs, and should be treated a» a lOQ ceat deducUon.

Montgomery County Prints Leave Rules

A book of rules and regulations concerning employee leave and va-cations has been prepared by Montgomery County. The simple, easily-understood 8-page pocket-size document has been well re-ceived by county employees, whose efforts were instrumental in gain-ing the conditions.

The main regulations are these: Vacations are two weeks for

employees on the job a t least a year; and three weeks af ter three years. Vacation time may not be carried over from one year to the next unless pressure of work makes it impossible for an employee to t^ke his vacation in any calendar year.

Vacations for per diem em-ployees on the basis of a 48-hour week.

A holiday falling in the vaca-tion period is considered part of the vacation.

Eleven paid holidays are al-lowed; twelve days of sick leave annually, cumulative to 90 days. A department head may petition the Board of Supervisors to grant an ill employee sick leave beyond the 12 days a year, but not more than 90 days.

Maternity leave without pay for one year.

TOWN OFFICIAL PLANNING DIVORCE HAD BETTER WATCH HIS RESIDENCE

An elective town officer wh« plans a divorce had better be wary about his job. An informal opinion by State Attorney General Na-thaniel L, Goldstein reads: "Prob-ably, an elective town officer wh» establishes a residence in another State and obtains a decree of di-vorce therein is deemed to hav» abandoned his residence in thla State, thus ceasing to be a town elector, a requirement for occupy-ing an elective town office."

Gratwick THE EMPLOYEES of Roswell

Park, Gratwick chapter, CSEA, are exceedingly glad to know ttiat Norman Sprickman, who is the senior administrative assistant at the Institute, is now on his way to recovery after a serious operation. All of his many friends and co-workers waited eagerly to hear word of his condition. They now hope that he continues to improve and will be at his desk carrying

out his duties in the very near future.

A name to be cancelled from the sick list is that of Joe Rick-statter. Joe had been ill for sev-eral weeks. It's good to see him back again.

Many employees have been ill due to virus infections. To all of them, speedy recovery.

Dr. Berens has resigned from his post as X-ray diagnostician to join the staff of the General Hospital.

John Vincent, social worker, is completing his field work with the Red Cross, Syracuse.

James Donovan, psychologist at the hospital, is completing a course In psychology at Colgate Univers-ity.

Due to the rejection of pleas for a salary increase and the freezing of the present emergency compen-sation into base pay by Budget Di-rector T. Norman Hurd, it is vital-ly important that every employee write to his Senator and Assem-

blyman on the urgent need for these two measures. Once again, all non-members are invited to join the Association. You need the Association and It needs you. Join today by giving your dues to your supervisor or to any member of the membership committee. The Civil Service Employees Associa-tion is making an all-out effort to secure a salary increase.

Metropolitan Armories

A REGULAR meeting of the Metropolitan Armories chapter , CSEA. was held on January 28 a t the 226th Field Ai'tillery Armory. 171 Clermont Avenue. Brooklyn. The meeting was called to order at 9 P.M. by William Maher^ chapter president.

The main topic was. of course, the armory employees' bill now before the State Legislature. Tlia bill was presented by Senator Brydges (No. 319) and Assembly-man Younglove (No. 407).

I t was determined tha t if t he measure is to be passed, members and their families and fr iends must write to their representatives to urge support of the bill. Also write to the legislators who in -troduced the bill in both houses, thanking them for their effort oa behalf of the armory workers.

In spite of the importance of this meeting, a t tendance was very small. Therefore, plenty of notice is being given about the next meet -ing, to be held at the 104th F. A. Armory, 168th Street and Archer Avenue, Jamaica, on Wednesday, February 25. By t h a t time, t he bill's outcome should be known.

The annual convention of S ta t e Armory Employees will definitely be held during the week of May 18, at the 71st Inf . Armory, P a r t Avenue and 34th Street, NYC. Make your plans now to a t tend as many of the sessions as possible. If you want first hand informat ion as to how your organization f u n c -tions, this is where you will find i t .

Two retirements (lucky fellows): Charles Luew of the 244th AAA and James Weisman of the 20th Bn. Naval Militia. Both retired as of December 31. Good luck and continued good heal th to both ot you.

The State Arsenal announced a new member, Joseph W. Heming-way. Glad to have you, Joe.

A vote of thanks was offered to Lt. Col. Charles Olsen, OICC, and William Christiansen, super inten-dent of the host armory, for their hospitality.

Administration Pay Case Is Incredibly V/eak

(Continued from page 1) How weak is shown by the a t tempt to gain a little morsel of support f rom the fact t h a t State employees have longer vacations, holiday and leave arrangements t h a n workers in private industry. I t ' s not a tenable argument, of course, to ask t h a t a State employee be docked because he gets t ime off on a holiday; tha t , in effct, is what the ad -ministrat ion proposed by using such an argument. The a rgument also leads to the whole subject of what Sta te employees DON'T get — like t ime-and-a-hal f for overtime, and such "fr inge" benefits aa hospitalization and heal th insurance, and pensions paid for by the employer.

I t is precisely the weakness of the administrat ion's case which leads to the inevitable conclusion tha t the economics of the si tuat ioa are not the determining argument .

It's Not Enough to Move Backward Nor is it preposterous t h a t the employees advanced this year a

new approach: s tandard of living. I t isn't enough, they pointed out^ to go back to some "base" year — 1940 or 1942 or 1946. By doing t h a t you can prove anything — just choose the right year to give you the best case. I t isn't enough to go backward — to live as well as you lived, say, in 1940; to have your wages brought in line with the cost-of-living index so t ha t you're just where you were a decade agog State employees point out t h a t they have been, like everybody elso^ severely hit by income taxes, so t ha t bringing their pay in line with some past date is not the simple business of levelling the wage in -crease percntage with the cost-of-living increase percentage.

The second point is this: Americans are not a static people. Factory workers live better in 1953 t h a n they lived in 1940; ofiice workers in private industry are f a r better off today than they were a decade ago. Why, the State employee wants to know, is the civil servant behind the B-ball when it comes to an advanced s tandard ot living? There 's no good reason. The march of progress has left h im behind long enough, he feels. He no longer wants to reach some point tha t he had a t some past date; like his fellow-Americans, he want* to move forward. To us, this is a strong argument, even though it iua# have elements not present in the Budget Office statistics.

Re-Examination Is Needed A re-examlnatloa of its entire position must be made by tbm

administration, with a realization that simple justi(^ requires a l e « adamaat, more g ive-aad- tak t approach.
