RULE DEDUCT|NG PAY
FOR EXCESS OF LEAVE
Post Office Department Off
ciaI Defends the System Ap-
piled to Employees.

There were eighty-four deductions Of
pay to employees in the Post Office De-
partment reported to the disbursing clerk
| for the month Of December, said Chlef
Clerk Weed Of the Post Office Department
yesterday; but of these eighty-four. two
| were made because Of the tardiness OF
clerks who had used the entire annual
| leave allowed them by law. Under the
| rule Of the department they were re-
quired to take days leave without pay
but with the distinct understanding that
all the time due them on the day beyond
the time of their actual tardlness they
were at liberty to take either the day
| they came late or any other day In the
year.
"The same rule was applied to seven
teen other employees who were absent
from duty a fraction Of day in excess
of the time allowed by law, and to Still
one other whose absence was without
permission and whose absence was due
to a cause that would not justify the
issuance Of a sick leave for the time.
There were sixty-four other employees
who suffered deductions in pay, but II
was for time in excess OF the annuai
leave which they regularly applied Tor
| without pay and which was regularly
granted them by the department.
In Answer to Complaints.
Mr.. Weed made this statement to
Star reporter in answer to inquiries con-
cerning complaints alleged to have been
made by clerks in the department who
had suffered deductions in pay.
He said further that for the protection
of the disbursing officer and in order to
properly administer the law the depart
ment had made the rule that clerks VINO
took fractions of day after exhaustlns
the full thirty days of annual leave al
lowed them by the law must take
whole day and have the days pay de-
Quoted from their salaries. He said 1t
was utterly impracticable in depart
ment with 1,oSS employees PROPERLY to en-
force the law which limits the annual
leave with pay to thirty days, and split
hairs as to the value Of the time lost
by clerks when that time was counted
by fractions of day or fractions of an
hour.
All the clerks in the department, he
said, were aware of the rule, and all
who suffered deductions of pay lost the
time with the full knowledge that the
department could not pay them Tor IT
under the law and would hold them to
the observance Of the general rule long
since laid down.
Knew Penalty in Advance.
They had no right to complain. he said,
for they knew what the penalty would
be if they exceeded their legal leave of
absence. Much more might be said upon
the subject, he declared, to show that
the departments treatment Of the clerks
is not rigorous or severe; but he pre-
ferred to econfine his statement to the
specific cases where deductions had ac-
tuaIly been made and to the causes for
| which they were made.
THE Postmaster General is not re-
sponsible for the law" he said. land he
is administering 1t in a reasonable and
practical manner
