The Navy Department's Classification Board is preparing to plunge into & mass of work that will take all Sum- mer to classify -some 7,500 “white- collar” workers in the service’s navy yards and stations throughout the country. The department’s appointment di- vision . has ~been struggling with this extra work in the preliminary stages, involving the analysis of the recom- mendations of the boards of naval of- ficers at cach shore stationeover the country and the recommendations of the various commandants and com- manding officers. This has meant studying statements of duties performed by the office groups and the findings in their cases. The Navy Department’s Classification Board will examine the cases and make final allocation to serv- ice and grade in its report to Secretary Adams. ‘Industrial workers in the Navy's great shops at the various yards are not in- cluded in this classification, as they are cared for by the wage boards. The present classification of clerical field workers was made necessary because of a ruling last November by Controller General J. R. McCarl, ‘The senior member of the Navy De- partment’s Classification Board is its chief clerk, F. S. Curtis. Other members are: Willlam D. Bergman, chief of the appointment division; Clyde Reed, special assistant to the Paymaster Gen- eral; G. A. Chadwick, chief draftsman of the bureau of Ordnance; P. K. ‘Thurston, chief draftsman of the Bu- Teau of Engineering; W. D. Clark; chiet draftsman of the Bureau of Aeronautics; L W. electrical engineer in the Bureau of Yards and Docks, and J. W. Clary, naval architect in the Bureau of Construction and Repair. ‘The assistant Secretary of the Navy, Ernest Lee Jahncke, in answering criti- cisms of fleld workers saying they had been rated by naval officers, pointed out that clvillans in the Navy Department will recommend their final rating to Secretary Adams. Representatives of the workers are scheduled to meet here tomorrow to confer with leaders of the National Federation of Federal Em- ployes and draw up & petition to sub- mit to Secretary Adams, urging that ratings given them by the naval offi- cers be increased.
