LIBERTY—Dec. 6 has been

ployment Relations Board as
the date for an election to
decide which union will represent
the approximately 500 employees
who work for Sullivan County.

The incumbent Civil Service

ing against challenges from the
Service Employees International
Union and the American Federa-

cipal Employees.

Sources from CSEA's Sullivan

Orange Leader
Predicting Win
On Revote Day

GOSHEN — The president
of the Orange County unit
of the Civil Service Employ-
ees Assn. predicted an over-
whelming victory for the unit on
Priday, Dec, 6, when it takes on
a challenging union in a re-
match of a June 7 representation
election.

In that contest, CSEA soundly
defeated the challenger, the out-
of-state Service Employees In-
ternational Union, but a rerun
was ordered in the wake of an
error made by county adminis-
trators.

“I'm very optimistic of a big
win by CSEA on December 6,”
said president Caro! Dubovick.
“Whatever support that other
union may have generated earlier
this year has since eroded, and
one of the prime reasons is be-
cause SEIU has been directly re-
sponsible for holding up ‘negotia-
tions for a new contract to the
point where the situation is now
critical.”

Results Challenged

At stake in the Dec. 6 show~
down are the representation
rights for Orange County em-
ployees who presently comprise
the Orange County unit of the
CSEA Orange County chapter.
After CSEA trimmed SEIU in
the June representation election,
SEIU challenged the results and
the State Public Employment Re-
lations Board ruled that a new
election be held on the basis of
an administrative error on the
part of the Orange County ad-
ministration, thus setting up the
Dec, 6 rematch.

told us they voted for SEIU then

Computer Science Program
To Aid Willowbrook Patients

MANHATTAN—An experiment combining computer science with personalized services
and intended to increase retarded Willowbrook patients’ chances for more normal lives was
announced by Bernice L. Bernstein, Health, Education and Welfare Department regional

director.

A three-year pilot project, in-
volving about 100 patients at
Staten Island's Willowbrook De-
velopmental Center, will test the
value of automated data systems
in setting up a patient's training
and treatment program and keep-
ing watch on his progress toward
@ specific goal and, possibly, re-
lease from the institution.

Cost of the project is $2.6 mil-
Non, 75 percent of which comes
from HEW funds and the re-
mainder from the New York
State Department of Mental Hy-
giene.

Participants

Ms. Bernstein said the first of
20 staff members for the project
would be hired this month, and
all should be on the job by Janu-
ary. Patients in the study, all
residents of one building, range
im age from 20 to 50 years,
Younger residents will be added
to the sample later to make the
study more representative of the

general Willowbrook population.

“Each patient in the project,”
she said, “will receive careful
neurological, pediatric, social,
psychological, and vocational di-
agnosis. A team of specialists
‘will Judge each individual's abili-
ties, and list the areas where help
is needed. An individual rehabill-
tation plan will be spelled out
‘that will include a timetable and
milestones for reaching goals in
personal hygiene, vocational
skills, self care, and so on,

Meeting Geals

“This information will be en-
tered in the computer, which will
be used to check delivery of the
services according to each per-
son's timetable. As the patient
meets the goals set for him, new
Ones will be set, until the patient
develops to his full potential,
which may include leaving Wil-
jowbrook.”

Anthony S, DeSimone, Reha-
bilitation Services associate re-

gional commissioner, said the
new staff would include compu-
ter programmers, research scien-
tists, a consulting psychiatrist,
and other clinical staff.
‘One-On-One’

In addition to the project staff,
sufficient members of the regu-
lar Willowbrook staff will be as-
signed to the new unit to main-
tain a patient-staff ratio of one-
to-one,

Mr. DeSimone said using the
computer was expected to make
it possible for staff to serve
larger numbers of people as in-
dividuals.

“Once the feasibility of the
approach is established,” he said,
“the system has sufficient ca-
pacity for the entire Willowbrook
population of 3,000.

“We think the system can be
modified and adapted for other
jong-term care situations, such
as nursing homes. It's a develop-
ment that’s long overdue.”

Charter Train Proposed
For Toronto '75 Meeting

ALBANY—Roy Dingle, president of the Civil Service Employees Assn.'s Division for
Youth chapter, suggested last week that delegates and guests traveling to the April 1975
Statewide CSEA Delegates Meeting in Toronto do so on a special train,

“It could be both delightful and good publicity,” Mr. Dingle observed. “Many people

have forgotten how nice it is
to leave the driving to others.”

“An Amtrak — representative
said it might be able to provide
us with the cars, including diners
and lounges. We could leave New
York City at about nine in the
morning, picking up delegates at
all stops along the Penn Central
up the Hudson, and along the
east-west corridor between Al-
bany and Buffalo, We would ar.
rive in Toronto in the evening.
early enough for an evening's
activities and rested enough to
enjoy them.

“By using a train we would
save the gasoline used by at
east 600 automobiles, and we

would be supporting the rail con-
struction bond issue which the
voters have just approved. Of
course we would have plenty of
banners along, and the publicity
would be valuable to our organi-
zation,”

Mr, Dingle said he has dis-
cussed the details of the pro-
posed trip with William Rhode,
a CSEA member and a DPY pub-
lic information officer, who was
once a travel agent and airline
official.

Mr. Dingle invited any CSEA
delegate who might wish to be
included in the chartered train
trip to leave word at Room 309,

Division for Youth, 2 University
Place, Albany, N. ¥. 12203, He
pointed out that the cost for
the train trip will probably be
jess than fuel and toll costs if
the trip was made by automobile.

“Theoretically the train may
be quickly sold out,” he said,
“and we'd never get two of them
because of the equipment short-
age. So I'l prepare a master list
of those who would like to travel
on the special train, and we'll
offer the tickets first-come-first-
served, No obligation is tncurred
by getting your name on the list.
It just means you'll be offered
Uckets when available.”

Creedmoor Unit Sends Petition
On Argument Over Aide’s Test

QUEENS VILLAGE—A pro-
test involving a test an-
nouncement for an adminis-
trative aide position was sent
Nov. 18 to Ersa H. Poston, presi-
dent of the New York State De-
partment of Civil Service, by
members of the administrative
unit of Creedmoor Psychiatric
Center and the Queens Children’s
Psychiatric Center.

The protest, signed by 171
workers in the administrative
unit, expressed dissatisfaction
with Test Announcement No, 35-
581 Administrative Aide G-11

The petition pointed out that,
“This test is open to Grade 6
and above (and) we have no
Grade 6 items in the administra-
ve bargaining unit

“Therefore, the people eligible
to take the exam would not be
the people experienoed and quall-

fied to do the job."
‘Grossly Discriminatory’

The complaint added that the
test ts not open to the clerical
personnel in the administrative
unit “who are well-qualified for
the position and for whom the
duties description appears most
appropriate,

“We therefore feel that this
announcement is grossly dis-

New York Business Activity Is
Reflector Of U.S. Problems

ALBANY—Business activity in New York State continued
to reflect the nation’s economic problems in September, the
State Commerce Department reported.

The preliminary, seasonally adjusted Index of Business

Activity in New York State de-
clined to 106 in September, one
point below the August level and
seven below that of September
1973.

A three-point drop in the re-
tail activity index, reflecting
sharp cutbacks in consumer pur-
chases of autos and other durable
goods, accounted for much of the
over-all loss from August, Con-
struction activity, however, regis-
tered a two-point gain, reversing
the almost continuous downward
movement which began in 1973.
‘The services and transportation-
communication-public utilities
components both held steady,
while factory output, wholesale
trade, and finance-insurance-
real estate each recorded a one-
point loss.

Compared with September
1973, the wholesale trade index
was up one point, while the re-
maining six indexes were lower.

Unemployment Up

Employment and unemploy-
ment mirrored the overall eco-
nomic situation. In September.
nonagricultural wage-and-salary
employment in the state totaled
7,082,800, down 52,300 from the
previous month and down 40,900
from the corresponding month
last year, Most of the month-to-
month decline was the result of
normal seasonal reductions in
government and services, which
more than offset smaller gains
in retail trade and manufactur-
ing.

Compared with September
1973, employment in the private
sector increased in services, fi-
nance-insurance-real estate, min.
ing, and the durable-goods sector
of manufacturing. However, siz-
able losses occurred in nondura-
bles manufacturing, construction
and transportation communica
tions-public utilities.

A year-to-year decline of 58,800
nonfarm jobs in New York City
was responsible for the statewide
loss. In contrast, the Nassau-Suf-
folk and Westchester Rockland-
Putnam downstate areas, and six
of eight upstate metropolitan
areas registered employment
gains over September 1973.

Back To School

Unemployment in September
declined to 457,500 as students
returning to school and other
factors resulted in a smaller la-
bor force. The unemployment
rate, at 6.1 percent, was lower
than August’s 6.3 percent but
above the 49 percent rate for
last September, Nine of the ten
major labor market areas re-
corded lower rates than in the
previous month, but all areas
had higher rates than in Sep-
tember 1973.

All 13 area business activity
indexes declined from August to
September, Binghamton, Eimira,
Poughkeepsie, Rochester and
Utica-Rome each dropped two
points, while each of the others
fell one point. Compared with
September of last year, all area
indexes were down, with losses
ranging from three points in
Poughkeepsie to eight points in
Utica-Rome.

‘The construction activity in-
dex, seasonally adjusted, rose
two points from August to Sep-
tember, although it was still 22
points below the year-ago figure.

The value of construction con-
tracts in the state in the 12
months ended September 1974 to-
taled $4.9 billion, a decrease of
18.4 percent from the total for
the previous 12 months, The dol-
lar value downstate fell 25.6 per-
cent; upstate, the decrease was
8.1 percent, despite an 18,5 per-
cent gain in nonbuilding con-
tracts,

Mediator Awaited Following ©
Impasse In Monroe County

ROCHESTER—Monroe County's 4,000 Civil Service Employees Assn, members are
awaiting a mediator to enter negotiations between their chapter and the Monroe County
government. Last week the county declared an impasse in the talks and asked the State
Public Employment Relations Board for a mediator.

“I thought we had progressed
slowly but surely in the bargain-
ing sessions,” said Martin Koe-
nig, chapter president. He said
he thought it was “a little pre-
mature” to call the impasse be-
cause every issue had not been
discussed. On the other hand,
Mr, Koenig added, “One of us
probably would have had to de-
clare an impasse sooner or
later.” Under the Taylor Law,
either side in negotiations can
call an impasse when talks fall
to show progress. The state then
assigns a mediator to help with
talks. The chapter's two-year
contract with the county expires
Dec, 31

Sides ‘Far Apart’

Bernard Winterman, county
Jabor relations director, said the
two sides were far apart on sev-
eral issues, including salary,
fringe benefits and job titles and

No Raises, Proposed 60-Job Cut, Draw
Long Beach-Manhasset Demonstrations

MINEOLA—Civil Service Employees Assn. demonstrations erupted at Long Beach
and Manhasset in Nassau County last week as the Nassau County chapter of CSEA battled
threatened layoffs and an employer's refusal to grant raises to workers that one official

called “ditchdiggers.”

In Long Beach, more than 200
CSEA members picketed city hall
and the homes of members of the
City Council from Wednesday
through Saturday, protesting a
proposed budget that would elim-
inate 60 jobs.

Support from the public seem-
ed nearly unanimous among the
speakers who addressed the
Council on the budget. The
Council heard Nassau chapter
president Iyving Flaumenbaum
and Long Beach unit president
Steve Hayes protest the proposed
layoffs.

Mr. Flaumenbaum told the
Council; “After 50 years of poor
budgeting and possible thievery
in this city, you are trying to
straighten out your finances in
one year anti you are taking it
out on our employees.”

Personal Appeal

Later, 26 typical CSEA mem-
bers who appear likely victims of
the proposed staff cuts, delivered
personal appeals to the Council.
One of these was Arsenio Men-
dez, a sanitation worker, who
earns $11,156 a year

“Hello, sirs, good evening, ta-

dies and gentlemen,” Mr, Mendez
began, “I've been working for the
city for eight years, on the night
shift. A crane operator, I don't
think I missed a day, I have a
wife and three children. I don’t
want to lose a job, Thank you.”

The apparent support of the
genera] public for the employees
came as “a pleasant surprise,”
Mr. Hayes said. He noted that
public employees have no unem~
ployment insurance and those
who would be laid off would
probably be forced to take wel-
fare.

“Everybody told the Council
that they should leave the little
guy alone,” Mr, Hayes said.

The city has claimed that it
has a $1.7 million deficit and
must reduce its budget by $350,-
000,

The personal touch was less in
evidence on the North Shore of
the county, where an official of
the Manhasset-Lakeville Water
District was quoted in the press
as calling employees “ditehdig-
gers" who did not deserve a pro-
posed contract settlement that
was rejected by the Board of

Commissioners, Employees there
picketed two evenings last week
in front of District offices.
CSEA field representative Nat
Zummo said a tentative settle-
ment for pay increases of $2,200
over the next two years had been
rejected by the commissioners,
even though the employees are
among the lowest paid in the
area. The top employee, Mr.
Zummo said, receives $9,488, a
sum less than the salary of the
part-time commissioners.

Morin identified wages as the
chief tssue,

In the final analysis, it all
bolls down to money," Mr. Morin
said, "The big question is how
much you're going to get put
into your paycheck.” Mr. Koenig
said he agrees with Mr. Morin
that “the big issue” is money,
or the lack of it in county offers.
The CSEA is asking for a 14
percent pay increase and a cost-
of-living agreement, The county
has offered an 8 percent increase
next year and a 6.5 percent hike
in 1976, Mr. Koenig said the
county won't agree to a cost-of-
living adjustment

“What the county is offering
Jess than the official
ng increase from Oc-
1973 to October 1974,

tober
which was over 12 percent,” Mr.

Koenig noted, “By December, it'll
probably be close to 14 percent.”

Mr. Koenig described employee
morale as “extremely low.
‘They're very angry about the
low county offer. They not only
want to keep even, they want to
improve themselves. And you
can't blame them.” He said the
county also wants, for the first
Ume, to include yearly inere-
ments as part of a pay boost.
For example, a 2 percent incre-
ment would be included with a 5
percent pay hike,

Job Downgrading

Mr. Koenig said the chapter
also is seeking a contract pro-
vision preventing the county
from downgrading jobs, Several
jobs have been downgraded in
past years, causing some em-
ployees to earn lower wages, he
sald.

CSEA and the county also
don't agree on the definition of
overtime, the chapter president
said.

“There are many other items
where we haven't seen eye-to-eye
ether,” he sald, adding that he
thought chapter negotiators had
“acted in good faith” during the
25 negotiating sessions. “Let's
face it, the county has the money
for the increases we're seeking.”
Under terms of the last contract,
negotiated in 1972, county em-
ployees received a 3 percent
raise In 1973 and’ a 5 percent
raise in 1974. Clerical workers,
Monroe Community College em-
ployees ‘excepting teachers),
health facility workers, sheriff's
deputies and county pure waters
employees belong to CSEA.

Mr. Koenig pointed out that
the only previous time a media-
tor participated in talks between
CSEA and the county was dur-
ing negotiations for the sheriff's
unit last year, “The mediator

the 14 percent salary hikes and
also a modified shift pay dif-
ferential schedule calling for
$200-$300 per year for toll col-
lection personnel and $1.50 per
shift for maintenance personnel.

Ratification ends months of
negotiations held in an effort to
reach agreement on a new con-
tract to replace the previous
contract which expired last June
30. Supervisory personnel of the
Thruway Authority represented
by CSEA ratified their contract
several weeks ago, and the most
recent ratification means Thru-
way employees in both bargain-
ing units represented by CSEA
are now under néw contracts
which remain in effect until mid-
1976.

Nassau Chapter Leader’s Vow:
Never Give Up Graded Salaries

MINEOLA—A packed general meeting of the Nassau County chapter of the Civil

Service Employees Assn. rang with cheers last

Wednesday as chapter president Irving

Flaumenbaum vowed: “We will never give up the graded salary plan.”
A noisy, militant crowd expressed satisfaction with a CSEA rejection of the county’s

contract proposals, which Mr
Flaumenbaum claimed were
based on an effort to terminate
the graded salary plan. The

meeting heard a full report on

the history and status of efforts
to negotiate a new contract for
1975. The talks have been de-
clared at impasse and a three-

Mr, Flaumenbaum said the
county's last offer was to do

and grant a general cost-of-living
inerease of 4 percent.

“We will never give up the
graded salary for anything,” he
shouted, amid cheering and ap-
plause,

Wenz! Rakes Procaccino
For CS Worker Comment

ALBANY — Civil Service Employees Assn. President Theodore C. Wenz! dispatched
a protest to State Tax Commissioner Mario Procaccino for public statements which Mr.
Wenz! said impugned “the integrity and competence of civil service workers.” Mr. Wenzl’s
union represents more than 200,000 government employees in New York including those in

the State Tax Department.

‘The CSEA leader's complaint
was prompted by @ New York
Times article last week, in which
Mr, Procaccino was reported in
an interview to attribute sus-
pected collusion between Tax
Department employees and cig-
arette smugglers exclusively to
workers with civil service status.
The suspicion rests on evidence
gathered In @ current investiga-
ton by @ special prosecutor, soon
to be reviewed by a grand jury,
allegedly showing Involvement of
tax collection agents within the
Tax Department's Special In-
vestigations Bureau. In addition
to the agents, who are civil ser-
vice employees, the bureau is
also staffed by a compliment of
appointive personnel.

“As reported in The Times ar-
ticle,” said Mr. Wengzl, “Mr. Pro-
caceino gives the clear impres-
sion that he feels civil service
workers are undesirable, and not
up to the standards of political
appointees to whom he refers to
as ‘responsive to us,’ whatever
the latter means, He make the
injudicious and downright stupid
mistake of condemning all the
civil service people in the
Bureau—and by Inference, all
other civil service people — for
what may be the sins of a few,
when he says the Bureau, “def-
initely has to be restructured,”
by replacing all the civil service
staff.”

Mr. Wenz! continued: "Either
he ts recklessly impugning the

integrity and competence of civil
service workers everywhere to

disclaim responsibility and get
himself off the hook, or he has
simply made an unfortunate
blunder. If the latter, we hope
he will have the good grace to
clear this up promptly, Other-
wise, we will look forward eagerly
to his imminent demise from the
state governmental scene with
the passing of the present ad-
ministration.”

Jack Daley, head of CSEA’s
3,000-member local at the Tax
Department's Albany offices and
member of the union's statewide
board of directors, reported
strong resentment among em-
ployees, especially in Albany and
New York City. Mr, Daley said
he, personally, was “completely
taken aback” at Procaccino’s
statements,

“It's hard to believe it was
simply a slip of the tongue,”
said Mr. Daley. “If it were, it's
not readily understandable or ex-

cusable from the commissioner
of a department. On the other
hand, if it really expresses Mr,
Procaccino’s feelings toward ca~
reer government employees, he's
in the wrong job.

“Anyway you look at it, it was
a serious blow for the morale
and the public image of the Civil
Service, And as a person who's
active in a union, I have to say
that employee relations are tough
enough without having to cope
with statements like Mr. Procac-
cino’s,” Mr. Daley added.

~ Halt To Harassment

O DOUBT there have been instances in the past in which

some public employees, especially one arbitrarily labeled
“troublesome,” have been harassed and when on sick or
personal leave are then arbitrarily deemed to have resigned
because of absence from work.

It is with just such situations in mind, then, that we
applaud the recent decision of Supreme Court Justice Timo-
thy J. Sullivan in his ordering Westchester County to rein-
state a correction officer, This decision provides a new shield
for the career public employee in protecting job rights.

The officer, Frank R. DeMuro, was injured while on the
job and was placed on sick leave. Some time later, following
an examination by a county-retained physician, he was
ordered by letter to return to his job.

Mr. DeMuro asserts he never received the letter, a point
never disputed by Westchester County.

After an examination by his personal physician, Mr.
DeMuro returned to his Job but was told there that he could
not work since more than three days had elapsed from the
date of the order and so he was deemed to have resigned
under Westchester County Civil Service Rules. (In similar
circumstances, a 10-day rule applies in the State's Civil
Service Rules and Regulations.)

The Civil Service Employees Assn. took up Mr. DeMuro's
cause, contending that Westchester’s action was in conflict
with Section 75 of the Civil Service Law which provides that
@ person shall not be removed except for incompetency or
misconduct after a hearing based on stated charges, Justice
Sullivan agreed and ordered the county to restore Mr. De-
Muro to his position.

We congratulate CSEA in its victory, It is one which
should go a long way in putting a stop to nefarious and
punitive practices sometimes found on the part of some
administrators.

Questions

Anew |

@ I've accumulated $82 worth
of doctor bills so far this year.
When can I send these bills in
to the Medicare carrier for pay-
ment?

A, You can send your bills in
immediately, This year the an-
nual deductible for the medical
insurance is $60. Medicare will
pay 80 percent of the reasonable
charges for your covered ex-
penses above the $60 deductible.

Q. My doctor told me that I
need to have a physical thera~
pist come to my house every day
to give me treatments. I also
need someone to come in a
couple of times a week to help
me with my bdusekeeping, I
haven't the faintest idea where
to start looking for this help,
Can my social security office
help me?

A. Yes, Any social security of-

fice has an Information and
Referral Service to help people
like you locate the help they
need, Just call any office and
they'll be glad to help you.

Q. T understand a retired work-
er getting social security checks
can now earn $2,100 in a year
without losing any of his month-
ly benefits, Was any change
made in the number of hours a
retired, self-employed person
can work in a month?

A. No, There was no change
made in the definition of “sub-
stantial services" in self-employ-
ment, Generally, you are allowed
to work up to 45 hours in a
month without loss of any bene-
fits for that month. However,
Mf yours ls @ highly skilled pro-
fession, you could be considered
to be working substantially with
even fewer hours.

O'Donnell’s sensitivity to politi-
eal trends and nuances has be-
come legendary. Since the No-
vember elections, he has made
political soundings throughout
the country and political leaders
of both parties respect and listen
to his perceptive wisdom,

His soundings indicate that
Govenor-elect Hugh L. Carey is
rapidly emerging as the Demo-
cratic party's most respected po-
Utical figure. Things may change
rapidly over the next 18 months,
but the prospect of Carey's win-
ing his party's Presidential nom-
ination are bright at the mo-
ment and should become even
brighter, when he moves into
the Albany Executive Chambers
January.

Governors Convention

Last week in North Carolina,
Carey played a central role in
the convention of Democratic
governors. He is expected to be
a significant force also at next
week's Democratic mini-conven-
tion in Kansas City, where basic
party plans and alignments will
be shaped in preparation for the
Presidential election in 1976.

In his campaign for Governor,
Carey demonstrated a unique ca-
pacity to weld together a winning
combination of the disparate
and sometimes warring elements
within the Democratic party. He
succeeded in merging into a sin-
gie channel Deniocrats of many
ideological differences —the Ir-
ish, Italian, Jewish and other
ethnic groups, the blacks and
other minority groups, women
voters, liberated or otherwise, the
hard-hat labor unions and labor
groups of more liberal orienta-
tion, together with businessmen
and industrialists.

Carey proved his courage and
his independence in entering the
Democratic primary, in the face
of the opposition of party lead-
ers. When he won, the party
leaders who opposed him joined
his bandwagon.

A great many factors point to
Carey’s national popularity. His
service in the House of Repre-
sentatives and his membership
on the Ways and Means Com-
mittee have given him the op-
portunity to establish warm re-
lationships with political leaders
throughout the country. He play-
ed a leading role in the approval
by Congress of the landmark
mass transit bill, His efforts to
promote mass transportation and
low rates of fare on mass trans-
portation facilities have won him
friends among the Mayors of
American cities

Worked With Rockefeller

New York will be of critical
importance in 1976. Gov, Nelson
A. Rockefeller will be approved
as Vice President and a Ford-
Rockefeller Republican ticket in
1976—or a Rockefeller ticket—
seems a virtual certainty, The
presence of Carey on the Demo-
cratic national ticket may be es-
sential to offset Rockefeller's
popularity in New York. Actually
Rockefeller and Carey are close
friends—and both are big men—
and have worked together closely
over the past several years, par-
ticularly in the area of Federal
revenue sharing and mass trans-
portation, Their opposing candi-
dacies on a national tleket would
be another example of the pe-
culiar trends in politica! life.

Even if Carey does not land
the top spot on the 1976 ticket,
he appears to be & good shot for

P.C., and chairman of the Nassau County Bar Asociation Laber
Law Committee.

Police, Teacher Suits

In a recent decision of the New York State Court of
Claims, the question was presented as to whether or not a
Police Benevolent Association could maintain an action in
its own name in the Court of Claims for the purpose of
collecting money damages for particular policemen who
were members of the Association. The action was based on
an alleged violation of the collective agreement between
the Association and the State of New York. The court held
that the right to maintain an action at law for money dam-
ages belongs to those members of the Association who have
been allegedly damaged by the action of the State. Those
persons are third-party beneficiaries of the collective bar-

gaining agreement, and they have the right to institute
legal action.

The only remedy available to the Association is for
specific performance of the contractual provision in ques-
tion and not a claim for money damages because the Asso-
ciation has not been damaged monetarily. Since the relief
to which the Association may be entitled is of an equitable
nature, the action must be commenced in the New York
State Supreme Court, since the Court of Claims does not
have equity jurisdiction. The law is that the equitable powers
of the Court of Claims are very limited and are restricted
to the enforcement of a money judgment. None of these
principles apply to the case in point, and therefore, the
court dismissed the claim. Police Benevolent Association of
the New York State Police, Inc. v, The State of New York.
358 NYS 2d 280.

THE SUFFOLK COUNTY Supreme Court recently had
the opportunity to pass upon certain issues involved in a
motion to vacate the award of an arbitrator. In that case,
an arbitration was held between the Board of Education of
Haif Hollow Hills Central School District of Huntington and
Babylon and Half Hollow Hills Teachers’ Association. The
issue involved the abolition of three chairmanships in the
music department. The collective agreement contained a
clause which provided for salary differentials for music
department chairmen for strings, instrumental and vocal.
The court sald, “Whether it was the intent of the parties
that the foregoing provision was designed exclusively to
provide salary differentials for the positions which then
existed, or whether its essence was to mandate a retention
of those positions in the salary differentials set forth in the
agreement, represents a question of fact already determined
by the arbitrator at arriving at his conclusion, and is not
reviewable by this court, Court review of an arbitrator's
award is generally a most limited one, and is not reviewable
on questions of fact.”

The Board of Education also claimed that the provision
of the collective bargaining agreement could not be enforced
because it ran contrary to the Education Law tenure provi-
sions, and the court said, however, that under the Taylor
Law the Board of Education had the obligation to bargain
as to all terms and conditions of employment and that such
obligation was a broad and unqualified one, It re-enforces
the principle set forth in the Huntington case, which pro-
vided, “Public employers must, therefore, be presumed to
possess the broad powers needed to negotiate with em-
ployees as to all terms and conditions of employment. The
presumption may, of course, be rebutted by showing statutory

provisions which expressly prohibit collective bargaining
as to @ particular term or condition .. .”

The court found in this case that nothing contained
in the statutory provisions relied upon by the Board of
Education could be deemed as a restriction of the Board's
authority to establish and maintain supervisory and un-
tenured positions for a stated period of time, Board of Edu-

HEMPSTEAD—The Town of Hempstead unit of the Nassau chapter, Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn., has reached a contract settlement with the town providing 10 major im-
provements including pay increases of 8% percent plus an additional amount keyed to the
cost-of-living index in each of the next two years.

‘The settlement was announced
by Hempstead Town unit presi-
dent Kenneth Cadieux following
approval by the town board at its
meeting Nov. 6

‘The wage clause assures a total
boost of 17 percent plus a vart-
able amount to be figured from
the cost-of-living index.

It also provides for a reopen-
ing of negotiations on pension in
the second year in order to pre-
serve the opportunity to seek any
additional retinement benefits
that may be authorized by the
State Legisiature in the interim,
Mr. Cadieux said.

Other salient clauses provide
increases to 15 cents per mile
mileage allowance, 7!) percent
night differential, better optical
coverage and cash allowance for
accumulated sick leave on re-
tirement, In addition, a labor.
management committee is
charged with negotiating on
abolishing the graded salary
plan, standardized anntversary
date, a maternity leave program,
appointment of independent
hearing officers for disciplinary

and grievance proceedings and a
safety team.

‘The pay increase will be sup-
plemented by an anti-inflation
amount in mid-1975 and mid-

1976. The supplement is to be
calculated as one-half of the per-
centage increase in the cost-of-
living index for the previous Dec.
1 to May 31 period in each year.

NEW ELECTION PROCEDURE

Prepared and presented by the Comméttiee to Restructure CSEA upon direction

general session—annual meeting September 1973, Concord Hotel.

The Committee to Restructure OSEA upon careful evidence presented and

Barbara Fauser, left, and Anne Weber, president and vice-president of Health Research
chapter, go over membership lists with RSVP's Ella Wadsworth and Jo Ann Gapp.
Informational booths at Delegates Meeting last month in Concord Hotel were set uj
to keep chapter leaders aware of services that can now be supplied by Headquarters.
The RSVP group handles inquiries on address changes, social security changes, new
membership cards, problems to do with dues check-off, Leader subscriptions, printouts
for membership rosters and incorrect mailing addresses,

James Gripper, far left, president of Kings County Developmental Center chapter, asks
technical questions of OSEA officials on how to utilize services provided by RSVP unit.

Probation Committee Report

‘The following report at the annual Dele-
gates Meeting was prepared by the Pro-
bation Committee: James Brady, Erie
County, chairman, and committee mem-
bers Alan Greenfield, Sullivan County;
James Frisina, St. Lawrence County;
Peter Grieco, Jefferson County; Joseph
Gilligan, Suffolk County; James Mattel,
Nassau County; Harold Fanning, Mon-
roe County; Eulls Cathey Sr, Erie
County; John Whalen, Westchester
County, and Nels Carlson, staff coor-
dinator.

Our Statewide Committee has just
completed the first phase of a study of
local probation conditions. We have
visited four different areas of the state
and have had input from probation
officers from 16 different counties

Some of the problems we have found
in our study are: low morale, high turn-
over of personnel, lack of communica-
tion between administrators and profes-
sional staff, a great disparity in sal-
aries, excessive caseloads, especially tn
criminal cases which cause extreme
frustration for supervising probation
officers, lack of adequate training, edu-
cational programs for the professional
staff, and a complete lack of program
within the State Division of Probation
in regard to hiring and recruitment of
minority groups,

What perplexes our committee is that
most of these problems are caused by a
lack of adherence to the standards set
up by the State Probation Department.

Section 355.9 of the State Rules and
Regulations requires that probation de-
partments approved for state aid shall,
by January 1, 1969, establish the follow-
ing staffing standards:

A. 60 undifferentiated probation cases
per officer.

B. 132 probation investigations per
year.

C. Yet, we have heard of many cases
where the probation officers would have
over 80 supervision cases and five or
six investigations @ month.

Where the State is taking over the
probation departments in Warren, Pul-
ton and Montgomery Counties, the start-
ing salary is over $14,000 a year, Yet,
there are other counties of similar size

and similar problems where the proba-
tion officers’ starting salaries are less
than $8,000 per year.

From a dollar and cents point of view,
the local departments have to realize
that an effective probation department
saves the taxpayers hundreds of thou-
sands of dollars a year. When the turn-
over of staff is at a minimum, where
morale {s high, and where caseloads are
kept at a proper size, a better job of
retmbilitaiton will be accomplished.

If recidivism {s prevented, and the
probationer is kept out of jail, the
cost to the taxpayer is an approximate
90 percent saving.

Our committee feels that since the
Attica Prison riot, there has been a
greater emphasis placed on probation,
and probation can do the job, but in
many cases, the local governments dr
not have the vision nor the understand-
ing of the problems. We feel that either
state takeover is necessary or, when
local governments do not comply with
state mandates, state ald be withheld.

The committee would like to report
on its July 10 meeting with Walter Dun-
bar, State Director of Probation. This
meeting was held in Albany, The com-
mittee posed many hard questions to
Mr. Dunbar in regard to maintenance of
standards and caseloads. Mr. Dunbar's
response to these many questions was
less than. satisfactory.

The committee is determined to un-
cover and expose all inconsistencies and
inefficiencies in the operation of the
State Department of Probation ss they
reflect on probation officers through-
out the State.

The committee is both angered and
frustrated at the State Department of
Probation for its failure to address
itself to those problems presented
by both this committee and the State
Comptroller’s reports which point out
many blaring inequities in the opera-
tion of the State Department of Pro-
bation.

‘We will not tolerate the unilateral and
high-handed approach by the State De-
partment of Probation and will use
whatever means that are available to

Plaque Committee Report

The following report at the annual Dele-
gates Mecting was prepared by the
Special Memorial Plaque Committee:
Raymond G. Castle, chairman, and com-
mittee members Willlam L. McGowan,
Richard E. Cleary, Joseph McDermott,
James J. Lennon, Solomon Bendet and
Irving Flaumenbaum.

At the present time the commtitee has
three names under consideration for
addition to the John M. Harris Memorial
Plaque. As soon as background material
and data is received, the committee will
take appropriate action.

‘The John M. Harris Memorial Plaque
is to commemorate the names of those
who have rendered outstanding service
to the Association. It ts recognized that
throughout the years thousands of mem-
bers who have rendered very valuable
service and made substantial sacrifices
to advance good government and em~-
ployee welfare, und all objectives names
to be inscribed on the Memorial Plaque
shall be limited to deceased members of
the Association, who during their life-
time have rendered outstanding bene-
fits or services to their chapter, their
conference and to the State Association,
and will usually have resulted for ef-
forts which were far “beyond the call
of duty.” There is no time limit on
when the outstanding service may have
been rendered.

Serious responsibility rests upon the
Piaque Committee, the Board of Di-
rectors and the Delegates to assume that
the Memoria] Plaque serves the fine pur-
pose for which was created. Nomina-
tions for inclusion on the Plaque may
be presented by any of the Association
through his chapter, after an interval of

at least six months following death of
the nominee, The chapter shall submit
such recommendation to the Confer-
ence (Region) and the Conference (Re-
gion) to the State Association. Each
nomination must be submitted on a re-
quest, on which shall be set forth sup-
porting data, giving detailed accom-
plishment of the deceased member, All
such nominations are then referred to
the Memorial Plaque Committee for re-
view of the facts relating to the services
rendered.

Down through the years, succeeding
Memorial Plaque Committees have sert-
ously considered all nominations, and so
maintains the high standard and fine
recognition that the Plaque represents.

At this time the Committee wishes to
approve the name of John Cromie for
inclusion on the Plaque. Mr, Cromie
was the oldest living Past President of
the Associtaion ut the time of his death
on July 22, 1974, He was 90 years of
age. He was President of the Associa-
tion in 1926-27, and retired in 1946 from
the Department of Taxation and Fi-
nance after 36 years of service.

‘The committee also approves the name
of Ivan 8, Flood for inclusion on the
plaque. Mr, Flood died on July 10, 1973.
He was representative of Westchester
County on the County Executive Com-
mittee and also on the Board of Direc-
tors for 20 years—from 1947 to 1966,

The Chairman would once again re-
mind all concerned that the Commit-
tee stands ready to receive recommen-
dation of names of distinguished past
members for the John M, Harris Me-
morial Plaque from our Chapters
throughout the State.

great deal of money for the
City by calling a halt to fur-
ther installation of the
Emergency Reporting System
(or ERS) as-it is called. 1
suggested that the matter bi
looked into by the Commis-
sioner of Investigation,
by bringing the Dispatchers,
Linemen, Box Inspectors and
everyone *% the lower levels
who are painfully aware of
the system's deficiencies to
testify,

For the further information of
Mayor Beame .. . let us take a
look at @ hypothetical situation,

‘Suppose you, Mr. Mayor, dis-
covered that your apartment was
on fire, At the same instant an-
other person in your building
came home to find that their
apartment had been burglarized.
Neither of you had a telephone

near as your fire
alarm box on the corner. So. . .
you both raced to the box. The
robbery victim arrived before you
and pushed the button on the
“blue side" for police help, Un-
fortunately, the wires are ex-
tremely busy and the man on
the “police line” simply can-
not handle the work at the
police console. Are you aware
that you now would be unable
to call the Fire Department from
that box until the robbery vic-
tim received an answer from
the police operator . . . and with
the fire victim, time is of the
essence:

Each of these alarm boxes are
on a so-called “loop”... or
“clreutt” containing from 10 to
30 such boxes. No one else on
that same loop (or cireuit) would
be able to transmit an alarm
‘or a call for help) from any
other box until such time as the
box in front of which you are
frantically standing ts cleared!

ago—in 12 separate instances at
the same time, citizens were
asking for police help by ac-
tivating the blue side of the box.
The Police console was so jam-
med up that the traffic could
not be handled, Each of the
boxes in use at the time were on
A separate circuit. Thus, while
chaos reigned in the Police tele-
graph set up, all the boxes on
each of the 12 circuits were “out
of action!" An approximate total
of 240 boxes!

In another case at Westchester
and Manor Avenues in the Bronx
some weeks ago, a fire took
place in a 150 by 150 taxpayer.
‘The fire was discovered when
the flames burst through the
roof. There is an ERS alarm box
on the corner, Upon arrival of
the “first due units.” the build-
ing was completely involved and
resulted in the transmission of
at least a second alarm. Later, a
Fire Department official pushed
the fire button to see if the box
was “in service." It was “out of
Service” and could not have been
used to transmit the alarm for
that fire. A tester was assigned
who found that “not only was
the box at Manor and Westchest-
er out of service but every box
on the 20-box loop was also out
of service and an alarm could
not have been sent from any
of them!"

I had known about the defi-
etencies of this ERS system for
some time and after gathering
considerable information sbout
it, broke the story at the end
of the summer.

Since that time, WPIX-TV
News has devoted a series of
four five-minute programs con-
demning the system and, in
last Sunday's “News,” writer Vin-
cent Lee roundly panned the
whole matter, too.

In my article on the subject,
I asked Commissioner John T.
O'Hagan how he could have per-
mitted the continued installation
of this ERS system and deprive
the average citizen of the pro-
tection to which he is entitled

no answer, The only
thing that can be sald now is
that these deficiencies are known
to the Commissioner. He was
Chief of Department when the
directive came from City Hall to
start working with the designers
of the ERS System.

Mr, Mayor, the continued in-
stallation of the ERS System
must be stopped forthwith.

There are those who say the
City is “stuck with it” and has
to permit the installation to con-
tinue. There are others who say
“not so." The rest is up to you,
Let us not have any wide-eyed,
“why wasn't I informed of this?”,
when the by “why” gets asked
4s surely as it eventually must.

That's how I see it... It
seems that’s the way it ls

Orange County CSEA Directs
Illegal Subcontracting Charges °

KINGSTON—The Orange County unit of the Civil Service Employees Assn. has filed
an improper practice charge against Orange County alleging illegal subcontracting with a
private cleaning company for services now being performed by county employees,

CSEA charges that Orange County has violated the state's Public Employees Fair

Employment Act by hiring the
private firm for custodial work
at Orange County Community
College, when the college already
has custodial employees with
jobs protected by the CSEA-
county contract.

The formal charge, filed with
the Public Employment Rela-
tions Board last week, claims
the county never offered to dis-
cuss the jobs in question with
CSEA. It adds that the county
“refused to negotiate in good
faith or otherwise” concerning

ployment of the custodians
working under subcontract.

The union affirms that the
county's subcontracting of work
to a private firm circumvents the
contract it now has with the
CSEA. The county has “attempt-
ed to avold all of the terms and
conditions of the contract be-
tween the parties by . . . subcon-
tracting work which was intend-
ed to be performed by employees
under the contract,” the charge
states.

that the CSEA its willing to

Felony Defendants
Now Can View Their
Prior Criminal Files

MANHATTAN—The Adminis-
trative Board of the Judicial
Conference adopted a new rule
entitling a defendant in a crim-
inal case to recelve from the
court any copy of a report on
his previous criminal record in
the court's possession.

State Administrative Judge
Richard J, Bartlett said that
whenever a court receives a
written report of a defendant's
previous criminal record pre-
pared by the State Division of
Criminal Justice Services or by
& law enforcement agency, the
court will provide a copy to the
defendant's counsel, or if the de-
fendant has waived counsel, to
the defendant

Judge Bartlett explained that
the rule is designed to provide
uniformity in practice through-
Out the State. Copies of criminal
records were previously supplied
to defendants in some parts of
the State, such as New York City,
but not in most arens.

for CSEA because of several fac-
tors,” Ms. Dubovick said, “These
people have told us they strongly
resent SEIU tactics which have
held up the employee negotia:
tions since the June election, and
the fact that SEIU agents have
failed to conduct a positive cam-
paign. More and more, people
tell us SEIU refuses to back up
their rash promises or prove they

could be effective for the em
ployees at the bargaining table."

‘The unit president stated, how-
ever, that CSEA {js taking noth-

‘We're well aware that SEIU

has a whole bag of tricks de-

signed to confuse the people, but
I think it’s an insult to the em-
ployees’
