Treasury clerks protest sick leave cut amid abuse claims
War Veterans and Civil Service Retirement Association poised to push Secretary MacVeagh on reduced sick leave for Treasury Department clerks. Officials cite abuse and a secret traffic with unforthcoming doctors, while many long-serving workers warn the measure punishes the innocent and could trigger a formal protest by Grand Army veterans. The plan cuts sick leave to 10 days yearly with 3 minute gaps charged as 2 minutes, and allows up to 30 extra days from prior years, plus credit for transfers from other departments.
