Commission
Plans Probe
NEW YORK (AIM Business
men trying to raise nlficc tone
with prim and proper English
secretaries had better watch their
step.
Seeking a posh note for the
premises in this way is highly il
legal in New York State, the Stale
Commission Against Discrimina
tion said Friday.
The commission announced it
would investigate reports that a
new fad "hire English" was
mushrooming in executive suites.
"These executives," said the
commission, "arc said to be re
questing English secretaries be
cause they are believed to be
more efficient than American
girls and also because their ac
cents lend chic to American busi
ness firms."
The commission has nothing
against ability or the Queen's Eng
lish. It merely points to the legal
fine print which says that a pros
pective employer who specifics
race, creed or color or national
origin when he wants to hire is
violating stale law.
First on the commission's list
for scrutiny are two employment
agencies the Austin Executive
Personnel Agency of Queens and
Vera Sugg, American representa
tive of the Graydon Bureau, an
English agency.
Austin's owner, David L. Wex
ler, freely admits to hiring Eng
lish secretaries.
"Is there a demand for English
secretaries here?" he asked.
"Sure. The English girl has a little
more respect for the job. The Eng
lish secretary has been trained to
be courteous to the caller. It's nor
ma! to them and it's not normal
to a lot of Americans."
And, added Wexler, "You won't
find a gum-chower among the
English girls either."

the appointment ol Hall S. Lusk
to the U. S. Senate.
Morse said he "will present
