Lustig, president of the Veterans Council, agreed, that there has been no apparent violations of the city's Merit Act. Lustig announced Monday night he would call a special meeting of the Veterans Council to report on Monday's conference. He sald the replies appeared to be satisfactory to him. During the session in the mayor's office. Civil Service Commission Chairman Ernest V.

Carpino agreed, at the request of Lustig. to ask his commission to approve a rule change which will require that candidates in future, testing be referred to by number only when introduced to members of oral examination Chairman Critical The Civil Service Commission The Civil Service Commission chairman, however, was sharply critical of the Veterans Council action, calling it a "witch and asserted the council officers should have come directly to the commission chairman Personnel Director Anthony OF.

Cites Unavoidable Delay The personnel director pointed out that in some instances there are unavoidable delays between the period of the written phase to and the oral portion of an examination and offered, as a case in point, the. present police. sergear.ts* promotion examination. The written portion was given about two weeks ago, he said, and these papers are still uncora Trected because the Service staff has been required to devote its entire time recently in handling details incidents to a re of classification of all city positions.

At least two more weeks may at elapse, the personnel director said, before the written test corrected and the oral examinations held. The personnel director 'emphasized that he has no other recourse, under the Merit Act, than to add veteran's points to the firal examination grade. He (made this clear after Lustig -claimed that he had complaints that examination candiIts, said they did receive dates, entitled to veteran's, cred-' them. As the session broke up, both the personnel director and the Civil Service Commission chairman accepted invitations to attend the Veterans Council installation ceremonies on Dec. 7 and agreed to discuss Civil Service testing at- the exercises.
