THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE

By JOHN F. POWERS
President
Civil Service Employees Association

Mr. Goldfine'’s Gesture

‘There is a sorry spectacle currently running in Washington In
which no one can take pride. The antics in the Goldfine hearings,
before a House Committee, are reflecting a low ebb in Ametican
ettiles, Some of the testimony has caxt a shadow over the Civil
Serv By implication, some of the public workers have found
themselves being suspected of accepting rewards for doing favors
for certain businessmen, Between 20 and 30 of them are acknowledged
reciplents of small Christmas gifts of $25 to $50 checks from Mr.
Goldfine,

Mr. Goldfine testified he played Santa Claus by annually giving
these small checks to “some poor workers.” He, obviously, in his
statement, was using the adjective “poor” to describe their financial
standing and not theit efficiency, This critical attitude towards
the pay standards of the public service might by some be called
commendabl

Unfortunately, the circumstances «under which his attempt to)

adjust thelr Mnancial position leave much to be desired. There have
been other leaders of industry in the country who have been con~

cerned about the salary of the public employees. However, they have |

not personally attempted to rectify the situation by Christmas checks,
but instead have taken to the public rostrum to state thelr views.
One gave much of his time and energy to formulating a compen-
sation plan for the Armed Services.

Harm To The Public Service

We think Mr, Goldfine—however well-meaning he may have
been—has done the public service harm tstead of good. He has
through his patronage placed the employees in an unenviable position.
A public statement expressing concern over the inadequacy of the
Pay scales from the head of a large textile enterprise might have
jogged the Congress and the people to the needs of the situation,
Instead, by his Christmas gifls he has cast them under « suspicion
that a public servant can “be had.” He has besmirched the good

ame and tntearity of the Civil Servants and cast a doubt about!

thelr Impartiality and concern for doing their
of the public good.

In thelr day-to-day work—whether in a laboratory checking the
Purity of a water supply or on a coast guard cutter facing Icy winds

to the maintainence of the Nation's peace and prosperity. Their
service has been far greater than thelr recognition. They have not

Ft. Stanwix Aide
Wins Two Awards

Walter M. Zatwarnicki, statlon-
ary engineer at Rome State
School, was formally presented
with two Certificates of Merit by
Dr, Charles Greenberg, director
of the Institution, The certificates
were awarded by the State Em-
Ployees Merit Award Board and
signed by the Board members and
the Governor of New York State,

‘The awards were made for sy
gestions presented by Mr. Zat~
warnick! on his own initiative and
acerpted as improvements of the
State Service to the people éf the
State of New York.

‘The certificates were in addi-
tion to two checks reeelved by the
Rome State School employee, one
in the amount of $20 and the
other amounting to $75.

One suggestion was for the de-
sign and construction of a cart
for the moving of television sets.
The telecart will facilitate the
handling of heavy television sets,
effect a saving in time and elim-
inate damage from vibrations and
Jars,

Another was the design and
construction of refrigerator cooler
racks which will result in a mone~
tary savings in the necessary re-
placement of existing refrigerator
racks.

The new awards bring to three
the total presented to Mr. Zat+
warnickt during the past year,
‘The first award was received in
November for suggesting a special
cutter for the packing used on
steam, valves.

Dual Landmarks

ISTORY was made last week when the New York

City Housing Authority, through Chairman William
Reid, signed an annual contract with an employee group.

Never before in the City's history had a New York!
City agency signed a contract with an employee organ-
ization,

This was a first of the first water because it represents
the breaking down of en artificial yet effective barrier
that had prevailed far too long.

There is no more reason why government should not
sign a contract on pay, hours, leave, working conditions,

VOTE IS NEAR ON
CODE OF ETHICS

By JAMES QUINLIVAN

The United States Senate soon will vote a bill establishing «
code of ethics for Federal employees and officials, too, A 10-point
code was reported favorably by the Senate's Post Office and Civil
Service Committee.

Last year a similar code was voted by the House of Representa
tives. The Senate did not concur, But this year, particularly because
of the disclosures by the House Special Committee on Legislative

Oversight, the Senate is expected to ¢a.nlong. The committee exposed
gifts accepted by Federal officinis from Bernard Goldfine, textile mag-
nate friend of Sherman Adams, the Assistant to Prealdent Eisenhower,
Mr. Goldfine testified to making gifts to Federal officials and
some “little fellows” among Federal employees, Mr. Adams was

Text of Some Planks

One of the planks of the present draft instructs officials and
other employees as follows: a
| “Never discriminate unfairly by the dispensing of special favors
| or privilages to anyone, whether for remuneration or not; and never
accept, for himeelf or his family, favors or benefits under circum-
| stances which might be construed by reasonable persons as influence

than a contract. Next year's agreement no doubt will be |

plainly called what it is, a contract, since the fallacy that
government, as a sovercign, can not well contract with
its employees has been dead a long time, if not always

buried. Government signs contracts with contractors. Why
not with its own employees?

Employees Struck by Fine Spirit Shown

Besides the readiness to set precedent, Chairman
Reid and his fellow-Commissioners, Ira $. Robbins and
Francis V. Madigan, showed eagerness to reach solutions,
and addressed themselves to differences with fairness and
understanding. Local 287, that negotiated the contract,
did not get all that it asked, though nearly all, What it
did get it got with a full heart from the Housing Author-
ity. That spirit in itself, hardly representative of such
dealing with government generally, did as much to set a
landmark as did the signing of the first contract. The
employees were as much struck by that spirit as by the}
practical gains attained, which included an across-the-
board pay increase. They felt that the consideration shown
them was something so new and friendly as to be inspir- |
ing.

Give Em Another Chance

EFUSAL by wary public employees to accept Social |

Security, under legal provisions that made the de-
cision irreyocable under existing law, must have arisen |
in most cases either from misunderstanding or obstinacy,
so that an opportunity for a change of mind should be
accorded. A bill now before the U. 8, Senate Finance
Committee would grant that opportunity, and should be
enacted, On behalf of New York State employees, Comp-
troller Arthur Levitt has written to Senator Harry Byrd,
chairman of the committee, asking that the committee
report favorably on the bill. Since local government part-
icipation in the Social Security System is usually admin-
istered by the comptroller, Lawrence E. Gerosa should
make a similar appeal to Senator Byrd on behalf of New
York City employees, as should the comptrollers of other
local governments in the State on behalf of employees in
their respective jurisdictions. |

In many cases it was foolhardy in the first place
to reject the opportunity. Misguided or uninformed em-
ployees should not remain severely penalized for their
hasty judgment, Some possible penalty would survive,
even if the bill is enacted, because of the reduced num-
ber of quarters of coverage, but letting the penalty be

We urge that a special meeting
of the Retirement Board be call-

adjustment in annuity payments |
can be made promptly. Each day's |
delay in complying with the prin-
ciple of the decision of the Court}

Question, Please

PLEASE state the New York
City rule regarding the probation-
ary period.

The rule provides:

In genera), original permanent
Appointments are subject to a
probationary period of six months.
Where the minimum compensa-
tion of a position is not more
than $3,500 per annum, any per-
son appointed to such ® position
after April 16, 1958 may be ter~
minated at any time during the
probationary period after a mini-
mum service of three months, if
such probation is unsatisfactory.
However, for appointment to poxi~
tion In the Administrative Staff
of the Board of Higher Education,
the probationary period ts one
year, and for appointments to the
Position of patrolman and police~
woman in the Police Department,
and transit patrolman and transit
policewoman In the Transit Au-
thority, the probationary period is
nine montha, In all other cases,
where the probationary period is
other than six months, the an-
Nouncement +f examination will
specify such probationary period.

only, Leader, 97 Duane Street,
New York 7, N. ¥,

“Make no private promises of any kind binding upon the duules
of office;

"Engage in no business with the Government, either directly or
rectly, which is inconsistent with the conscientious performance
of his governmental duties;

"Never use any information coming to him confidentially in
the performance of governmental duties as a means of making private
profit;

“Expose corrupiion wherever discovered, and,

“Uphold these principles, ever conscious that public office is a
public trust.”*

Representative Charles BE. Bennett (D,, Plu.), wrote the resolu-
tlon embodying the proposed code. .

New Code for NYC

Meanwhile New York City is soon to vote a code of ethics ap-
Plcable to its own employees, while quusi-independent agencies are
expected to follow suit, The Council's Committee on Civil Employees
and Veterans, which has been studying the subject for months, is
expected to report soon after Labor Day,

The Council committee would have the benefit of the Federal
example by that time. Also, there Ls a State code of ethics, applicable
to State employees, that Attorney General Lonis J. Goldstein asked
Mayor Robert FP. Wagver to consider as an example, but the Mayor
felt that the present City code of ethics met the situation at least

as well and expressed hope that the new City code would be even
more satisfactory and effective.

HA to Adopt Own Code

The New York City Housing Authority ly expected to adopt a
code of ethics of its own, Chairman William Reid said so in con-
nection with the recent reinstatement of a suspended employee.

‘The Authority members unanimously approved the reinstate-
ment of Sidney Schackman, an accountant suspended on Jonuary
1958. The Authority agreed with a special hearing officer that Mr.
Schackman’s making of a loan to A, Arthur Tracy, a senior vice
president of the Nassau Management Company, in no way impaired
Mr, Schackman’s usefulness to the Authority,

In announcing the decision, chairman Reid said:

“This case demonstrates the need for a written code of con-
duct for Authority employees which wilh in unmistakeable terms
define permitted and prohibited activities. Such a code will p
vent unfortunate misunderstanding and will enable the Authority
and the public to receive the benefit of staff services tn line with

the highest standards of ethical conduct. Such a code is now being
prepared by the Authority,”

Grateful for Reinstatement

Mr. Shackman made this statement to the Leader:

“TE want lo express my appreciation to Chairman William Reid
and the other members of the New York City Housing Authority,
Ira 8, Robbins and Francis V, Madigan, for thelr consideration and
fairness in reviewing my suspension, I also want to (hank my at-
torney, former Commissioner of Investigation Louls E. Yavuer, for
his diligent and able efforts in presenting my case,

Most of all, I want to pledge all of my talents and efforts to
the service of the Housing Authority and the public In a renewed
affirmation of my profound gratitude that Iam a citiven of #
country where the words democracy and justice have rea) meaning.”

HA Signs Up
With Union

(Continued from Page 2)
| Tt was the first instance of se-
cession from the Plan, but since
| the HA was not bound to accept
the Plan, but voluntarily partiel-
pated in tt under a previous HA
administration, it also had the
right to withdraw, and, In effect,
exerclved that right, with the con-
sent of the Board of Estimate,
which was harly in any position
to refuse consent, and was in full
accord with the HA‘s desire, any-
way, The withdrawal was effective
on July 1, accurately timed to
enable the contract ralses to be
effective on that very date.

What Feinstein Plans

“Now freed from the Career
Plan,” said President Feinstein,
‘the HA can grant other raises in
| the future, retreactive to July 1,
| 1958, and our union is about to
bers. a drive vo win raises for
white-collar employees. To avold
any difficulties arising from com-
| parable present titles of work that
{a not compa able, we shall ask
that general clerical titles be re-
classified to special titles, such
as housing clerk, housing exterm-
inator, and the lke,

Three Precedents Set

The pact signed last week is
precedent-setting in three main
aspects, HA employees in blue-
collar titles get what City employ-
ees generally were denied, a ratse;
not only . raise, but an across-
the-borsd raise; a written con-
tract with employees has never
before been slanetl by a City
agency (the Transit Authority
does not fall within that cate-
wory); and withdrawal from the
Career Plan.

A Blushing Occasion

Mr. Fetnatein, after the signing,
praised Chairman Reid as a man
of action, saying that the previous
HA Administration had proceeded
ir the negotiations with sincerity
And good heart, but had been
unable to overcome oMclal bar-
riers. “You were able to do it,"
Mr. Peinstein told Chairman Reid.
“How you did \t 1 don’t know,
but we all thank you deeply for
having done it.”

The Chairman made a blush-
ing disclaimer, saying that nearly
everything granted was agreed to
by his predecessor, which was
true, But Mr, Peinstein’s compli-
nent was addressed mainly to the
practical attainment and he him-
self spoke In complimentary terms

Chairman,

EXTENSION OF CERTAIN
TEMPORARY RETIREMENT
PROVISIONS

Chapter 563 of the Laws of 1958,
introduced by Senator Brydges at
the request of the Joint Legisla-
tive Committeé to study the Em-~-
pPloyees' Retirement System, con-
tinues for # further period of one
Year a number of the temporary
provisions of the Retirement Law.
Included among the one-year ex-
tensions ja the right to make
additional contributions on the
first $10,000 of salary, and the
| right to purohase credit for allow-
able service for any persons who
become membera before July 1,
1958, provided such member ren-
ders at least two yeara’ member
service after he last becomes a
member. The right to borrow from
the Retirement System until age
70 is continued for an additional
yoar os is the right to borrow
from accumulated contributions
hile absent on military duty.
The right of retired members
whose retirement allowance with-
out option ts $3,500 or less to earn
$1,800 in temporary or occasional
public employment without preju-
dice to their retirement allowance
is also extended for a period of
one year. ‘This privilege also per-
| mits persons whose retirement al-
lowance is in excess of $3,500 to
ive that portion in excess of
00 in order to earn up to
$1,800 in temporary or occasional
public employment, At this point,
explanation should be made of
the effect of the veto of Senator
Erwin's bill — Senate Print 2050,
‘This bill would have granted the
sume privilege on a permanent
basis and haye amended perman-
ently Section 32 of the Civil Se
lee Law to that effect, The Gov-
ernor’s veto message in connec-
tion with the Erwin bill reads as
follows.

“This legistation ts now un-
necessary because I have already
approved Senate Introductory
Number 1219, Print Number 2
(now Chapter 563, Laws of 105!
Furthermore, the reatrictions con-
tained jn this measure may jeo-
pardize benefits provided by
Chapter 583 of the Laws of 1953
and other statutes to the extent
jof impairing the constitutional
rights of many retled employees.

“The bill is disapproved.”

In order to avoid any misunder-
Standing it should be pointed out
that the veto of the Erwin bill
| di¢. not destroy the right. to earn
$1,800 In public employment for
those with retirement allowances
of $3,500 or less without option
since that right is continued by
Chapter 563. The Erwin bill would
have afforded m permanent solu-
tion to the problem whereas
Chapter 563 merely continues the
right for an additional period of
one year.
