Mental Hygiene Dept.
Promises CSEA Some
Relief On Cut-Backs
ALBANY — Some relief
in the agency-wide economy
cutback plaguing employese of the State Department of
Mental Hygiene was promised last week to representatives
ot the Civil Service Employees Assn. at a meeting here with
Dr, Alan D. Miller, Mental Hygiene
commissioner,
Miller told CSEA’s Special Men-
tal Hygiene Committee they could
expect the current freeze on fill-
tog vacancies in the department
to be lifted in the very near
future,
While this one key action could
do much to alleviate the present
pressure on institution employees
with respect to work load, out of
title assignments, leave restric-
tloas and other working condition
irregularities, the big question, as
to how far the relief would go,
still remained unanswered, CSEA
spokesmen said.
Two Important
Meetings Reset
ALBANY — The Civil Ser-:
vice Employees Assn. has an-|
nounced the rescheduling of
two important meetings, in-
cluding one with the State Bud-

According to Dr. Theodore C.
Wenzl, CSEA president although his
committee was somewhat heart-
ened at word of the anticipated
lifting of the hiring freeze, it was
also considerably concerned by
Miller's confirmation that the De-
partment’s total appropriation had
been cut.
“We can only infer from what

CSEA Urges Governor
To Save Ins. Fund Jobs
ALBANY — The Civil Service Employees Assn. has called
upon Governor Rockefeller to prevent the abolishment of
five positions in the State Insurance Fund’s New York City
office.
In a telegram to the Governor,
Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl, CSEA
president, said “Our Association
demands your action to prevent
the abolishment of ‘five positions
in the State Insurance Fund
blamed on budget cuts.”
Dr. Wenzl told the chief ex-
ecutive that “If economy is neces-
sary, {t must be arranged in
other ways.”
The problem was brought to
the attention of Dr. Wenzl by
Randolph V. Jacobs, president of
the State Insurance Fund chap-
ter of CSEA, who also heads the
Metropolitan Conference, Jacobs
said “The State Insurance Fund
chapter has suggested several
other ways in which economic re-
ductiong can be made without
eliminating jobs, but the Fund
management has turned down
our proposals,”
In addition to seeking the Gov-
ernor’s intervention, Dr. Wenzl

Why Not
Jan, 2, 1968, when we wrote:
“MUCH OF WHAT will happen
during 1968 will have been esca-
lated because 1968 is a presiden-
tial election year. The mere ap-
pearance of any presidential can-
didate will be enough to touch off
a demonstration, and possibly
violence.”
IN THAT COLUMN we cau-
tioned civil servants that 1968
would be a trying year for every-
one, but particularly for civil
servants, who would have “to

HEA LA RNA REIN LITE INHER EI
Mr. Margolin is Professor of Business Administration at
the Borough of Manhattan Community College and Adjunct
Professor of Public Administration in New York University’s
Graduate Schoo} of Public Administration,
Television
THE TRAGIC murder of Senator Robert F. Kennedy 13
days ago prompts us to recall—and strongly re-emphasize—
the warning to our civil service readers in the column of
WE OPENED THAT column
with this paragraph:
“AS NO OTHER year in Amer-
fean history, 1968 will test the
mettle and good public relations
of everyone in civil service—and
that means more than 10 million
‘Americans throughout the United
States.”
THESE WORDS were not writ-
ten to frighten anyone. They were
meant to be a studied journal-
istic and political assessment with-
in the framework of facts ab-
sorbed from the daily press or
witnessed on television.
THE “BOTTOM LINE” of our
calculations added up to a stormy
1968 for both civil servants and
government leaders.
WE CERTAINLY did not anti-
cipate the shocking assassinations
of Senator Kennedy and Martin
Luther King, Jr.—both within
weeks of one another. We did feel
strongly that violence seemed to
have become little more than an-
other form of free speech.
OUR ORYSTAL BALL was not
so accurate that we could pin-
Point who would do what to whom,
but we were reasonably certain
that there would be violence dur-
ing 1968.
ALL THIS IS certainly not
proof of clairvoyance. It 1s sim-
ply a total realization that some-
thing 1s basically wrong when po-
litical and sociological disagree-
ments are now settled with guns
in the hands of seriously disturbed
people, who live in an enyiron-
ment conducive to violence.
ALSO IN QUESTION is our na-
tion’s method of choosing its
elected leaders, particularly on
the National and State level.
WHY SHOULD ANY candidate
for National or State office tear
himself, or be torn, to pieces men-
tally and even physically by
months of campaigning and hand-
shake-to-handshake exposure to
crowds, where may be lurking &
disturbed mind with murder in
his heart?
WHY WE HAVEN'T made more
intelligent use of the world's most
modern means of communication
—for example, — television—for
campaigning? And, we add, with-
out the pocket-breaking cost
which the use of modern media,
including television, entails?

Monroe County Manager Urges
Legislators To Approve New
Retroactive 1/60 Pension Plan
(From
Leader Correspondent)
ROCHESTER — Monroe County may become the first in the State to approve a
request by the Civil Service Employees Assn. for » retroactive 1/60th retirement plan,
County Manager Gordon A, Howe told some 700 members of the the CSEA’s Monroa
chapter on June 7 that he would recommend enactment of the plan by the County Legis~
lature.
“I'll prepare a letter immedi-
ately,” he said at the annual
chapter banquet and installation
of officers at the Mapledale Party
House in Rochester,
Howe said after the installation
that his letter would be in the
hands of the County Legislature
when it next meets on June 20,
The request then will probably |
go to the salaries and personnel |
committee before it is brought to |
a vote by the entire legislature.
Howe's support of the measure,
which grants one-half pay after 30
years of public emploment, came
after Monroe chapter president
Vincent A. Alessi threw down a
challenge from the podium,
“Before official negotiations
begin,” Alessi said. “I hope that
we can get the 1/60 retirement
retroactive to July 1, 1938, I feel
that the county manager should
have the opportunity to agree or
disagree with comments relative
to our request for the 1/60th.”
Alessi said granting of the plan
was one of the major goals of
the chapter. “We could be the
first county in the State to put
this through,” he added.
The 1/60th 1s part of a $100
million State program to improve
the welfare of government em-
ployees, but counties have the
authority to accept or reject the
plan for their own employees.
In his remarks, County Man-
ager Howe, said, “I’m grateful to
all of you for what you do day
in and day out in serving the
Public of the County of Monroe.
“We intend to give every coun-
ty employee every possible fringe
benefit available under the law.
“And I say to every county
department head, where there's a
Problem or dispute, always give
the employee the benefit of the
doubt.”
Joseph D, Lochner, CSEA execu-
tive director who installed the
new chapter officers, called the
1/60th retirement plan “a very im-
Portant guarantee,”

Official bargaining agent for all
county employees.
“Negotiations will start short-
ly,” he said. “The ground rules
have been discussed and written
up. As soon as they are accept-
able to both parties, they'll be
signed, Cooperation has always
been received (from the county)

pect the same pattern in future

Immunity W:
AST week’s U.S. Supreme Court decision which strikes
down a law that removed from jobs those public em-
ployees who refused to waive immunity when under investi-
gation is bound to stir up considerable controversy. Yet, it
should be remembered that this law, in effect, withheld the
benefits of a valuable constitutional protection from civil
servants.
It is true that public employees serve in positions of
special trust, But there are many occupations in the private
employment sector—banking and insurance, for instance—
where misdeeds on the job can also cause great public harm.
There are adequate safeguards now under study for
dealing with misconduct investigations. There is—and never
was—no need to put civil servants in a special behaviour
category not invoked for their fellow citizens.
A Cynical Savings
AKING advantage of employees eligible for retirement
as a means of economy is a cynical way to operate a
government agency, but that 1s exactly what has happened
in the State Insurance Fund,
Five employees with long years of dedicated service have
been notified they are being dismissed. The supposed ground
js a need to cut back on personnel but the ‘ive choices in-
volved make it obvious that the aim is to save money by
removing positions where persons involved do have retire-
ment income and won't necessarily be destitute and then not
refilling thes jobs until absolutely necessary.
This trifling with the lives of employees is intolerable
and the Civil Service Employees Assn. has asked rightly
that Governor Rockefeller veto the dismissal orders. Cer-
tainly, the right to work and the very dignity of these
public servants carries a higher priority than any temporary
budget tightness.

Governor Ok’s
Mediation Board
ALBANY — Governor Rock-
efeller has signed legislation
to create a new three-member
State Mediation Board.
Under the bill, the present
board’s part-time membership is
replaced by a bi-partisan, full-
time board, A new eight-member
Labor-Management Advisory
Panel also has been set up to
advise the new board.
In signing the bill, Rockefeller
declared:
“Since its establishment in 1937,
the State Board of Mediation has
compiled an outstanding record in
facilitating prompt, amicable set-
tlement of labor disputes and pre-
venting disruptive and costly work
stoppages. The Board's activities
have made mediation an impor-
tant factor in labor-management
relations in New York and earned
for it the confidence of labor,
management and the public. Par-
ticularly in recent years under the
quasaid sy JO dyjysiepea, oiqe
Chairman, Vincent D. McDonnell,
the Board has time and time again
demonstrated how invaluable cap-
able mediation services can be
in the resolution of Imbor disputes
and the maintenance of labor-
management harmony, As success-
ufl as the Board has been, how-
ever, experience has shown that
it could be strengthened in its
work by a full-time membership.”

Civil Service
Law & You
By WILLIAM GOFFEN
(Mr, Goffen, » member of the New York Bar, teaches law
College of the City ef New York, ts the author of
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)
Judicial Review Of Tests
WHILE THE State Department of Civil Service does
not make judicial review of its examinations easy, in reality
it should welcome it. Judicial review is an effective way of
educating the Commission to defects in its framing of
civil service examinations. An example of the educative value
to the Commission of the court proceeding is the recent
case of Matter of Sies (New York Law Journal, May 28, 1968,
page 20).
THE SIES CASE was brought by an Attorney Grade 18
for an order directing the Department of Civil Service to
regrade the examination he took for promotion to Senior
Attorney Grade 23. He claimed he was entitled to credit on
two multiple choice questions on which the Department's key
or official answer was different from the one selected by him,
He was given credit for forty-nine questions and needed
credit on one additional question for a passing grade.
JUSTICE DANIEL G. Albert, exhaustively reviewed the
questions at issue, At the outset, he noted that under the
doctrine of Acosta v. Lang, the petitioner was entitled to credit
for an answer that is better or at least as good as the offi-
cial answer. Question 13 of which review was sought required
the petitioner to select one of four possible answers based
upon the postulate that the plaintiff in a malpractice suit
made one of the defendant doctors his medical expert. The
petitioner’s choice of answer read as follows:
B. The platntiff’s action is proper. A plaintiff in a
malpractice action has the right to call as a witness a
defendant doctor, that is, a defendant physician may be
required to testify to facts within his knowledge—what
he actually saw and did,
The official answer read as follows:
D. The plaintiff's action is proper. It has long rec-
ognized that a party, including physicians, in a civil suit
may be called as an expert witness by his adversary and
questioned as freely and fully as any other qualified wit-
ness as to matters relevant to the issues in dispute.
JUSTICE ALBERT recognized that the question was
based upon the celebrated recent case of McDermott vy. Man-|
hattan Eye Hospital 15 N.Y.2d 20. The official answer “D’
correctly stated the rule of the McDermott case with respect]
to medical maipractice actions. As held by Judge Stanley H,
Fuld (now Chief Judge) writing for the unanimous Court 0!
Appeals, plaintiff may examine the defendant physician “wit
regard to the standard of skill and care ordinarily exercised
by physicians in the community under like circumstance!
and with regard to whether his conduct conformed thereto
even though such questions call for the expression of #
expert opinion.”
JUSTICE ALBERT noted that answer “D” erred !
stating that the rule was “long recognize.” The MeDermol!
case was decided as recently as November 25, 1964 and
established a new doctrine. Furthermore, as observed
Justice Albert, there is no reason to assume that th
doctrine is as broad as answer “D” states in extending 1t !
any civil suit instead of limiting the rule to medical m@
practice actions.

JUSTICE ALBERT sustained the second question revit

for

Ifyou refuse to drive a Volkswagen because it’s
ugly, we can’t help you.
If you refuse to drive a Volkswagen because
you have eight kids and it isn't big enough, you
have our sympathy,
If you refuse to drive a Volkswagen because it
isn't fancy enough, that's for you to decide.
But if you refuse to drive a Volkswagen because
you're used to an automatic transmission, listen
carefully.
‘Now you can arive a Volkswagen all over town
without shifting.
We call this new option the automaticstick shift,
And in true Volkswagen fashion, a bug with an
automatic stick shift will deliver up to 25 miles ona
gallon of gas, use very little oil, and nary a drop of
water or antifreeze,
But just because we've made it easy to drive,
doesn't mean we're about to make it any prettier,
or any bigger, or any fancier. So we imagine some
people will still refuse to drive Volkswagens.,
You can't win them all.,

...80 more
will live.
It is estimated that there are now
more than 350,000 blind people in
the United States. Another estimate
reveals that we may expect an
additional 30,000 people to lose their
sight In every year. Fortunately
there are people who have been
doing something about this
serious problem.
The National Association for the
Prevention of Blindness and its
affiliated chapters have conducted a
program of research, education and
preventive service for over fifty years.
The Society claims that more than
half of all blindness could be
prevented by full use of knowledge
we already possess, It also states that
more knowledge would undoubtedly
have been acquired if more money
were available for research.
While this program of research
continues, programs of rehabilitation
are being conducted. In every state
there are agencies both public and
private, which are helping blind people.
The National Society for the Prevention
of Blindness warns that one out of
every four school children is in need
of eye care and that children’s eyes,
even before they enter school, should
be examined regularly.
Every responsible person can
help advance the research program
that may eliminate many causes of
blindness. A contribution to your local
Association for the Blind is a concrete
way to help.

Candidate Stein has already gathered 5,200 signatures and hopes to

Th the aftermath of the past
weeks events, combined with the
grief, the subject is too sensitive
a one for discussion, however much
good sense an appointment like
this would make,
But it does prove that not only
the Democratic candidates know
the value of the Kennedy team’s

can afford to have the Kennedy
family or friends or associates
against him.
Perhaps they can’t get the nom-

puts it. The options may expire

‘Wins Contract
ALBANY The North
Colonie Central District chap-
ter of the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn. recently won a
contract, featuring a six percent
pay raise for non-teaching em-
ployees, following negotiations
with the Board of Education.
The contract was signed recent-
ly, and covers a period from July
1, 1968, through June 30, 1969.
Other benefits in the agreement
include changes in the grievance
procedure and personal and sick
leave plan, and the adoption of a
non-contributory pension plan.
Howard Cropsey, chapter presi-
dent, signed the agreement for
CSEA. Also participating from the
Employees Association were Ed-
ward Gusty, collective bargaining
specialist, and Bernard Ryan,
field representative.
Signing the agreement for Board
was Mrs, Louise B. Wise, presi-
dent; Edgar S. Pitkin, supervis-

Habura, business manager, par-
ticipated in the ceremony.
Negotiations under the terms of
the Taylor Law, were conducted
in a cordial atmosphere, said
Cropsey.

the Spring of 1965 when the In-

workers living on the grounds of
the hospital that the value of
food and lodging supplied to them
in the year of 1961 constituted ad-

| ate additional tax payments would
have to be made.
In initiating the claims, refer-
|red to by Rowell as obvious!
‘test cases,” the Revenue Sei
vice took the position that the
43 employees involved,
,|them in lower grades,
jobs not
with patient care, and were thus
living on the grounds of the in-
stitution for their own conveni-
ence rather than that of their
employer, Free food and lodging
received under these circum-
stances, the Federal government
| said, was the same as extra in-
come and should therefore be
taxed
At the behest of 43 employees,
Rowell called on CSHA’s Board
of Directors to approve legal as-
sistance under the regular pro-
gram of Employees Association.
The Board egreed, and through
CSEA's regional attorney in Roch-
ester, retained 2 top law firm
in that city, specializing in tax
matters, to handle the case.
The letter developed the posi-
tion that ‘“‘a substantial comple-
ment of employees residing on the
premises is indeed necessary for
the protection, security and treat-
|ment of patients, and for sound
administration.” They said that
this applied not only to doctors
and medical personnel, but to em-
ployees in other titles as well,
such s maintenance workers.
| CSEA’s lawyers thus
the Internal Revenue Ser"
tention that all employees not
immedietely involved in patient
care do not have to live on the
institution grounds in order to
discharge their responsibilities
properly.
| Counsel for the employees said

ditional income subject to Fed- |

performance of whatever emer-
gencies duties might be required
lot them.”
| Through the months and years
that followed, during which con-
| tinuing routine delays kept the
lease from going to court, CSEA
jattorney obtained full support of
their position from several high
sources in the State Administra-
tion, including Mental Hygiene
Commissioner Alan D. Miller and
Alton G, Marshall, executive of-
ficer to Governor Rockefeller, Mar+
shall submitted official appeals
on behalf of the Rochester em-
ployees from his office and from
Dr. Miller to the Internal Revenue
Commisioner in Washington,
Finally, in late winter of this
year, unofficial word reached
counsel for the Employees Associ-
ation that the Federal government
would probably drop the whole
case, This report was confirm-
ed recently, when 43 employees
involved were duly notified by the
Internal Revenue Service, and the
matter officially came to a close,
This was the second instance
in which CSEA has successfully
blocked a Federal government
move to tax as income, meals
and lodging received free of
|charge by institution employees
| living on the grounds. The previ-
| ous victory, in 1955, involved highe
er grade employees in duties dl-
| rectly related to the care of pail
| or inmates,
The current favorable decision
seen as even more significant by
{CSEA President Wenzl in that it
not only reaffirms the precedent
established in the earlier case,
but also clearly extends ts appli-
cability to employees in lower
level jobs whose primary func
! is not necessarily petient
tion
care
“This was an important one to
win,” said Wenz], “because any
additional income tax on the peo-
constituted a hardship.”

phere and expressed hope that
this trend will continue.

(Continued from Page 1)
discuss impending cutbacks in the
budget for the Department of
Mental Hyglene. The meeting will
be expanded to covert the Insur-
ance Fund problem, Dr. Wenzl
said,
“Abolishment of jobs held by
loyal employees with 20 or 30 years
lof dedicated service is not the way
to comply with economic cut-
backs, if, indeed, these cutbacks
are necessary,” the CSEA leader
said. “It ig @ grave injustice to
the employees affected and a dis-
service to the people of New
York State.”
The management of the Fund
informed Jacobs that the jobs will
be abolished, efefctive July 17.
The action affects three doctors
in the medical department and
two associate attorneys in the
legal department, Jacobs said. In
addition, the Fund has decided
not to fill two positions which now
are vacant, that of building man-
ager and assistant director of
personnel,
The reasons for the reduction
in personnel reportedly has been
attributed by Fund officials to the
recent increase in salaries and
retoractive retirement benefits
|which were negotiated for State
CSEA.
“These reasons are not founded
on facts and are completely un-
acceptable,” Wenzl said, “since
fund officials consider the present
economic situation to be not of an
emergency nature and admit that
the Fund was not experiencing
any problem in staying within
the statutory 25 percent of in-
come allowed for administrative
expenses.”
Jacobs further warned that,
although the Fund management
has given assurances that no fur-
ther action of this type is con-
templated, “a dangerous preced-
ent has been set, thereby threat-

“Of the five employees whosy

tend to use every resource at our
command to prevent this action
from becoming effective.”
