adding that the only possibility

was for employees to attempt to

Nurses in the Department of

Mr. Kelly noted that the require-

Ctvil Service Topics

‘The Governor discussed three
toples ef particular interest te
civil servants. One was his state-
ment that the State Department
of Mental Hygiene leads the na-
tion tm caring for mental cases,
and bis promise that the State
would maintain that Jeadership.

| Another promise was that on bills

te the)

of wide public interest or concern,
in the closing,
would be given. The Governor
would try to induce the Logisiature
to have its committees grant such
hearings, but if that failed, he
would hold executive hearings
himself, The third topic was the
executive inquiry tmte the fune-
tioning of State departments, The
Governor said that, being new to
his job, he merely wanted to find
out tf the departments are func-
Uoning properly, and his tone was
one ef assurance there was me
cause for alarm,

Finkelsiein's Question

missioner DeSaple made any

Shapiro, Herzstein
Debate Questionnaire

Delegates of the Metropolitan Mew York Conference, Comm,
heard two sides of the highly-contested questionnaire being used tp
Btate Commissioner of Investigation J. Irwin Shapiro, im his currem®

investigation of State employees.

Commissioner Shapiro indicated that his appearance at th
Juncheon, to defend the questionnaire, was inspired by The LEADED

articles concerning his use of the

disputed blank which the Assocka~

téon has termed “a Mishing expedition.”
Harold Herzstein, regional attorney for the Association, delivered
&® heated rebuttal to the points made by Commissioner Bhesire,

What Shapiro Cam Deo

“No State employee who receives
& questionnaire from my office ean
be forced to fill it out and return
it under signed oath.” declared
Commissioner Shapiro. “I have no
suthority te require this ef any
public employee, but I de have the
right to summon any employee
before me by subpoena and ex-
amine him under oath.”

Describing the duties ef his of-
fice, the Commissioner, appointed
om January 1 of this year, said
that his investigative Jurisdiction
covers every agency, bureau and
board of the State, and also every
mayor, police commissioner, sheriff,
and their staffs. He is empowered
te conduct Investigations at the
request of the Governor.

Mr. Shapiro deciared that his
office had already disclosed
shortage of $15,000 for which an
employee of the Secretary of State
was responsible, and that be had
uncovered a condition In the Motor
Vehicles Bureau in Queens, tn
which persons were able to ob-
tain drivers’ Hcenses by payment
of & $25 bribe.

"Not My Baby’

Returning to the matter of the
questionnaire, Mr. Shapiro anid,
“Tt Is not my baby,” stating Ht was
exactly the same form that had
been used in the previous adminis-
tration “by Dewey and Herlands.”
He added that he would not have
continued using the form if he
@id not think it filled am tnvesti-
gative purpose.

“The questionnaire t weed.” he
said, “instead of calling in each
employee. TR gives them time to
think over their answers to ques-
tions before answering.”

Against Thought Centro!

Mr. Shapiro denied that he
would make any “bianket™ use of
the form and said it would not be
used in any “loyalty” investigation.
“I am against thought eontrol.”
‘The Commissioner added thai he
bad long been a fighter for civil
rights.

The forms will be sent eut, he
commented, when rumors ef im-
Propriety by public servants reach
his ears. He said that he would
fgnore anonymous letters, but
would conduct his questionnaire
inquiry whenever there were
strong rumors of misfeasance tn
any State agency, and when re-

“My question was not Intended

completely concur with you.”

The Governor added: “I learnt
early that an executive is a pris-
oner of the men and women
around him, Mr. DeSapio has been
helpful to the Democratic Party,
and has served its best imterest.
‘Those are not mere words. (Turn-
tug to Mr, DeSapio) I am grateful
te you, Carmine, for what you
have done.” The Governor added
with « laugh, “I am also gind I
have been able to reduce un-
employment im the Democratic
ranks.”

DeBapio's Quip

After the cigars were passed
round, Mr, McCrary ted the

thorixed me to state on bie behalf

quested to do so by the Governem,

“If we see that an employee
living beyond his income, is buying
& new car every year, is spending
Jong vacations in Miami at an oe
pensive hotel,” he can certainky
expect to be questioned, said Max,
Shapiro, and to be called in under
subpoena for questioning. The
questionnaire is fairer than « call
under subpoena for questioning,
he added.

“Refusal to answer the que
tionnalres Is concerted effort te
block an Investigation ordered by
the Governor,” he said.

Information Is Confidential

‘The information on the forms i
confidential, and is sent to the
Governor or may be turned over
to & district attorney for action,
be added. Any disclosure of the
information to other agencies af
persons is a misdemeanor.

‘The Commissioner described hi
activities as being planned to com
duct investigations in a humane
manner. He described civil sere
ice workers as the most unde~
paid, and cited the Mental By
giene employees as especially mm
derpaid, He said that he wished
his department had enough funds
and staff to conduct an investi
gation of the administration of
mental hygiene, not the employees
of the Mental Hygiene Depart
ment. He sald there were strong
rumors of corruption and mixmam-
agement In that department,

Declaring that his operations
had been maligned by vnfavor
able newspaper publicity, the
Commissioner said that if he ever
unjustly accused any public em-
ployee the press would be informed
of that situation,

“I never gave out any publicity
about the questionnaires,” he com-
plained, and he denied having fale
en down on keeping any agree
ments made with the Civil Servies
Employees Association about wm
of the questionnaires.

MENTAL HYGIENE MEMO

‘This ls the third of the new LEADER columns written exclusively
for employees of the State Mental Hygiene Department. “Mental

Hygiene Memo" will be glad to receive suggestions for subjects to be
discussed.

A Word to Governor Harriman
DEAR GOVERNOK:

Maybe this ts out of turn. But maybe, too, it's & matter you'll
want to think about, We're talking about the appointment of a
Mental Hygiene commissioner. We koow that there's a law on the
books abarply restricting the number of individuals you can consider
for the job; they must have institutional administrative experience
which many top-flight psychiatrists and administrators don’t have,
‘We assume that this has been the main reason why no one has yet
been appointed to take Dr. Newton Bigelow’y place, Perhaps you
have somebody in mind for the job; perhaps not,

A Suggestion

So here's a suggestion; Why not re-appoint Dr. Bigelow? We
know that sounds, at first glance, unusual, But is it? Merely
because you accepted Dr. Bigelow's resignation when he offered it,
upon your taking office, isn't enough to make the suggestion pre-
posterous. We would like you to ponder the advantages of this step.

Pirst, of course, we're sure you'll agree with us that the post of
Mental Hygiene commissioner ought to be out of politics, You re-
appointed Dr, Herman Hilleboe as State Health commissioner, and
the appointment was widely applauded. Dr. Hilleboe had done «
great Job for the Health Department, and it was obvious that the
work he had begun should be continued, even though Dr. Hilleboe
was originally named by your predecessor, Governor Dewey,

The sume considerations ought to hold with respect to Dr.
Bigelow. Public interest in mental health is greater than it has ever
been. The number of mental patients is greater than the number of
those occupying af! other hospital beds, Clenrly, the finest talent
available ought to be rimming the Mental Hygiene Department,

A Second Look

Now take a second look at Dr, Bigelow, Mr. Governor. First, he
humanired the department, There prevailed, under him, a give and
take among the agency “brass” which had never existed before. The
employees found that human-ness filtering all the way down, with
the result that the old “king-and-subjects” relationship, which used
to prevail among hospital directors and employees, has nearly com-
pletely disappeared. Employees have a yoice and are given considera-
tion, which was not always the case. The result is a new dignity in
their work, 4 higher morale, and greater efficiency, reflected every-
where in the mental hygiene service. The employees learned to re-
aspect the big, shy, man who ran the department, and who listened
to them so carefully.

Dr. Bigelow, incidentally, brought in a group of directors, through
civil service, of exceptionally high quality,

His Research Program

He started a research program, including the use of new tech-
niques and drugs, of which the general public is largely unaware, But
it is the greatest program of its kind in the United States, and will
reflect large credit on the State of New York when it is finally
revealed. If you can find the time, Mr, Harriman, you should get
around and see this program at work in the institutions,

His Public Relations Program

He undertook a public relations program to acquaint the people
of the State with the sources of mental disturbances, and what to
do about them, As part of this program, he helped establish a point
of view which is even now accelerating the public attitude that men-
tal iliness must be considered with utmost sympathy rather than with
fear and disgust, This program will make further expansion in the
field easier, And we are sure, Mr, Governor, that you will be urging
such expansion,

His Building Program

He began a building program the results of which you can see
if you travel anywhere around the State: Manhattan State Hospital,
Creedmoor, Marcy, St. Lawrence, Craig Colony, and elsewhere, And
this great program, like the research, would not have reached its
present proportions without Dr, Bigelow’s unremitting activity,

His Administrative Setup

He developed an oxcellent administrative setup, On personnel
matters, he took in a topflight man, His research was headed by a
distinguished research psychiatrist, His public relations program for
better mental health Included the distribution of pamphiets and bro-
chures and such, for the press, radio and TY—not ordinary material,
but of a kind that has been made textbook examples in some college
courses, He surrounded himself with a corps of efficient associates,

And he got along well with everybody, from executive officials to
hospital attendants. No breath of scandal ever touched him. No major
item of criticism ever reflected on his work,

Maybe He Woulda't Want Tt

Dr, Bigelow is now back at his old job as director of Marcy State
Hospital. We know he's pretty happy there; and we know, too, that
his life in Albany was rugged, Perhaps he wouldn't want to be com-
missioner again even if the Job were offered him,

Basis of Principle

But we think you should offer it to him, Mr. Governor, Tt will
be for the good of the State — and your own good, incidentally,
from the public point of view — if you could induce him to return
to the top post. To those who know the score, and that includes the
Politicians of both parties, such an action would look big to the
ordinary citizen, because you'd be doing something on the basis of

principle to get the beat possible service for all the people — regard~

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE

By JOUN F. POWERS
President
Civil Service Employees Association

- Mas Laem.

AS A STATE, county, city, town or village employee,
you have’ a big stake in a bill that was passed at this
year's session of the Legislature. The stake is bigger than
you may be aware of — for you now have a protection
that never existed before, except for veterans and exempt
volunteer firemen.

In a word, the competitive employee can no longer
be kicked out on his ear. Should you face disciplinary
action, you now have the right of counsel and witnesses;
and should you be dismissed erroneously or without rea-
son, the Civil Service Commission has the power to rein-
state you in your former job,

Cases of Dismissal

We already have cases, unfortunately too many, of
employees being dismissed who should not be dismissed,
We don’t know how many such cases are going to arise in
the future. But it is important for you to realize that the
Board of Directors has been discussing, with deep and
careful consideration, just at what point the Civil Service
Employees Association is going to enter to protect the
public employee with the new tools we now have at our
disposal. We don’t know how many disciplinary cases
we'll have to defend in the course of a year if we go into
this program deeply. Maybe it will be a few, maybe 300,
maybe 500, maybe 1,000,

Well Carry Through

But whatever program we undertake, we'll carry
through with vigor and determination. The legal costs
may run exceedingly high—but it is my opinion that the
CSEA must offer this protection to its members, give them
this security against the dread of unjust dismissal. We
can't be sure how far we'll go—and you should under-
stand that the discussions are preliminary. But the tenor
of feeling, as I surmise it around the State, is that the
employees want this protection and are ready to help
supply the resources to make it possible.

This would be one of the great developments that a
dues increase would permit us to carry forward. It is the
kind of thing that will enable us to grow because it will
give us an enormous “selling” point to prospective
members.

Publicizing the Facts

The Board of Directors, at its recent meeting in Al-
bany, authorized me to publicize the facts concerning the
need for a dues increase. In these little weekly chats I
intend to do just that. My own position is clear, An or-
ganization like ours can never stand still. Either we go
forward or we will fall backward, To move ahead we
must give the employees what they want and what they
need. Additional legal protection is one of those needs.
Representation such as we had before the Classification
and Compensation Board, and the costs of such represen-
tation in the future, is another kind of protection the em-
ployees are requesting. They want their problems handled
more speedily at headquarters and in the field. They de-
serve this; it means additional field representatives, men
of the highest calibre, and it means additional personnel
in the headquarters office. The employees want more work
done with the Legislature. I am convinced that if our
present representation, excellent as it is, had been supple-
mented, we might have gotten additional bills passed. Our
limited resources made it simply impossible to watch and
push everything that had to be watched and pushed. Yet,
with a proper dues figure, we could have done the job
more effectively—and perhaps it would have brought
more money or a better retirement plan to you who are
reading this column,

Your Own Interest
The amount of a dues rise will never equal the
great good that a dues rise will enable this organization
to accomplish in your behalf, So, as the facts begin to
reach you, please study the suggested proposal carefully
and objectively. Only one thing is involved: Your own
best Interest,

Of 3 Guards

ALBANY, May 30 — The mm
pension of three Attica Prison
guards has been rescinded.

‘The action follows a law sult i=
which two other guards success
fully defeated similar suspensions,

The actions concerning the
guards were pushed by the Civil

The original suspensions,

the guards worked at a race track

the suspensions rescinded, the
CSEA undertook negotiations for

“I was delighted to learn today
that, following diswussions be-

CORRECTION CORNER.

Jack Solod, who runs this column regularly, is on vacation, Thiv
week's column ix written by Howard J, St. Clair, of Dannemora State
‘Hospital, and tolis the dramatic story of the manner in which the
pay of criminal hospital attendants was equalized with that of prison
guards.

The Fight for Better Criminal Hospital Salaries
By HOWARD J. ST. CLATR

‘THIS IS the story of the long battle of the Civil Service Em-
Boyes Association to obtain an equalization of the pay earned by
@iminal hospital attendants and by State prison guards,

‘The new salary scales were announced by J. Earl Kelly, Director
@f Classification and Compensation, on May 18, The salary changes
Were approved by Dr. Paul H, Appleby, Budget Director. The realloca-
tions will affect some 602 criminal hospital attendants, 144 senlor
attendants, and 66 charge attendants at Dannemora and Matteawan
State Hospitals, The salaries were increased as a result of appeals
filed inst year after the new salary plan went Into effect.

‘The new pay scales for attendants is $3,549 to $4,680; senior
attendants, $3,730 to $4,918, and charge attendants, $3,920 to $5,156.
In addition, these employees receive 20 per cent additional for one
day por week overtime.

Goes Back to 1938

Since inception of Dannemora State Hospital chapter, CSA, In
1938, the present and past chapter officers worked tirelessly to con-
vince the State that discriminatory pay scales existed, A great amount
@f credit for this accomplishment goes to Albert L. Poster, He used
much of his own time to bring this and other problems to the atten-
tion of the officials in Albany. Often, he attended conferences In Al-
Dany without remuneration, and sometimes at great pergonal sacri+
fice. Mr, Poster succeeded Wesley Laporte who also represented us in
Albany for a great many years, and deserves much credit.

Pay Plan Began in 1937

‘The State salary plan was first realized in the Feld-Hamilton Bill
mgned into Jaw in 1937 by former Governor Lehman, and became
effective on July 1, 1936, On April 1, 1944, standard class titles were
applied to all positions In Dannemora and Matteawan State Hospitals
aa & result of petitions filed by employees of both institutions,

Owing to the pendency of more than 4,000 appeals at the time,
these petitions could not be reached for hearing until 1945 at Danne-
mora and 1946 at Matteawan. On April 1, 1046, the Classification
Board released its decision denying the appeals of the employees.
Te waa the first public statement of reasons that had been handed
down by the Board. The employees were encouraged, however, by the
intimation in the opinion that the issue was one to be determined by
the State Salary Board, The facts set forth in the opinion were
sctually in support of the employees’ claim for equal compensation
with prison guards. It was observed that quoted requirements for
@iminal hospital attendants were equal to, if not higher than, the
requirements for prison guards, The physical requirements were iden-
téeal. ‘The educational qualifications were identical, The “desirable
qualifications,” insofar as they could be objectively measured, were
identical, and the duties and responsibilities of the positions were
substantially identical.

A Change in the Boards

In 1949, the Classification Board and Salary Standardization Bosrd
Was abolished and the Classification and Compensation Division of the
tate Civil Service Department was created with J. Earl Kelly as
fa director,

Competitive Status

On February 8, 1949, the State Civil Service Commission adopted
@m order, which was signed by former Governor Dewey, placing
wniformed employees of Dannemora and Matteawan State Hospitals
under competitive civil service, Incumbents would be retained without
examination. New employees would be chosen on the basis and merit
and ftne:

On April 1, 1951, the Civil Service Department announced the
We-srading of the attendants’ salaries, The attendants earning from
$2,346 to $3,036 were advanced to $2,622 to $3,312. Senior attendants
were advanced to a new salary range of $2,760 to $3,450,

Reoommendation Not Acted On
Im 1953, the Division of Classification and Compensation made a

@etermination that salary equality should exist between prison guards | ~

and the criminal hospital attendant, This recommendation to the

Budget Director wis never acted upon. When the new salary plan

was announced in 1954, attendants were allocated at a salary grade

ewer than prison guard. The new salary scale which was announced

weeentiy is a result of the appeals which were filed early in 1954,
Approval Necessary

At a salary hearing held in Albany on January 25, 1955, the
ettendants were advised by J, Earl Kelly that their request for guard's
pay bad been granted, Howover, the Budget Director's approval was
meoensary to effectuate this determination.

One of Governor Harriman’s campaign promises was to place into
effect the “cqual pay for equal work” policy for State employees.
Governor Harriman did just that in the case of the criminal hospital
attendants, Governor Harriman and his administration are to be
eongratulated for recognizing this injustice, and for having taken the
Recessary picps to correct the situation,

Directors Support Employees

Dr, Francis C. Shaw, director of Dannemora State Hospital, and
Br. John McNeil, director of Matteawan State Hospital, both supported
the attendants

OMcials of the Depariaient of Correction have given their support,

Bill Would Ease
Insurance for

Retired Employees

WASHINGTON, May 30 — Leg-
islative proposals, to make it
easier for employee beneficial
associations to transfer to the
government their life insurance
obligations to retired and sepa-
rated Federal employees, were for-
warded to Congress by the Civil
Service Commission.

Under the present act, before the
government can assume these in-
surance obligations an associa-
tion must turn over to the gov-
ernment its total assets or an
amount equal to the Mfe insur-
ance linbilf{ties to be assumed. Al-
though one beneficial association
has already done this, many or-
kanizations are experiencing diffi-
culty because court rulings re-
quire & unanimous vote of mem-
bers, To ease this situation, the
suggested amendments would re-
quire that only that part of an
organization's assets to which the)

entitled need to be transferred.

The Lesson
Of Willowbrook

ig streamer headlines last week appeared all over New
B York State, the substance of them being that a child
at Willowbrook State School had been maltreated. The
implication was that such treatment is quite general in
institutions for retarded children, Public confidence in the
work of the State’s employees, and in one of the most
humane programs of government, was rudely shaken.

That the charges were error, fraud, and phony, the
employees of the institution themselves made clear at a
protest meeting.

Now comes another headline: “HARRIMAN ASKED
TO PROBE DEATH OF GIRL, 8 IN S. 1 STATE
SCHOOL.”

The attack on public employees is not often the re-
sult of knowledge. Sensational headlines attacking them
are not often borne out by an investigation of the facts,
This was conclusively shown in the case of the “bruised”
child whose publicity left the employees themselves to
gather for the protection of their good name and the good
name of their institution,

Inevitably, as in any undertaking, there will be oc-
easional cases of inefficiency or worse in public agencies,
But the quality of service is on an amazingly high level,
Brutality such as is implied in the recent rash of headlines
is a rarity; it is just not tolerated. The opposite is the
truth: employees devoting themselves to hard, harsh, of-
ten dismal jobs; saving lives and bringing health to citi-
zens who would have died or been buried in dark closets
a few years ago. The great new programs of research, the
use of such tranquilizing drugs as thorazine, the ingenuity
in feeding retarded children who refuse food, the stanch-
ness of work within a set of conditions that are not dupli-
cated in any other human activity—about these things
and the dedication that often goes with the job, the citizen
hears nothing.

The case history of what happened at Willowbrook
is an important lesson, It is part of a great recent tragedy
—the undermining of confidence in public employment,
The Willowbrook employees acted with strength and in-
tegrity when they “stood up” for themselves and their in-
stitution. They should feel secure in the loud backing of
their employees, of the Mental Hygiene Department, and
of the Governor,

In fact, the Willowbrook incident points up a lesson
which the Governor might well consider: the need for a
public relations program to inform the people of New
York State about the great undertakings which are in
operation for their health, safety, protection, and welfare;
and about the employees who carry out these tremendous
objectives. Such a program should include the throwing
epen of institutions to public inspection, so that the citizen
may see for himself what is going on, It should include
eonveying, through all the media of communication, the
problems being faced, and how they are being solved.
Only in this way can the harm that comes out of headlines,
implying brutality, corruption, and inefficiency, be com-
batted.

COMMENT

CONS tty. uF
PAY ALLOCATION

Editor, The LEADER:

There are many faults in the
State salary reallocation, reeaved
just week, Primarily, the data
fails to tuke into consideration the
serious nature of the appeals
made by the employees, One is
led Wo conclude that only in a
very few cases were the appeals
really considered. The fact that
a sum of money was set up in ad-
vance, and then an endeavor made
to fit the employees into this pre-
conceived sum, means obviously
that a proper evaluation of sal-
aries and grades could not be
made, A factor other than the
real merit of employee appeals
entered into the situation.

As president of a large em.
ployee group, I feel it my duty
to inform the State that the re-
sults are ulterly unsatisfactory.

So many jobs are Heted in thin

I don't think we have that many

could become fully insured, s0
that they would be entitied to a
pension om reaching age 65, al-

‘The limit te the number of years

the right to pension benefits con-
tinues for them, as well aa for
others, and survivors woild bene-
Mt, also, in both instances.

Age Factors

Particularly for those veterans
under age 45, military service alone
would not be sufficient to provide
much of a Social Security pension,
unless combined with coverage
arising from private employment
Prior of subsequent te military
service, or both.

‘The death benefits being most
important for veterans of the two
conflicts, two examples are given:
Tr a veteran dies im February,
1954, he needa 10 quarters of cov-
erage, or 2% yours, to be fully
insured. If he dies im February,
1967, he needs 12 quarters, or 3
years,

Om the pension score, if he ts 40

against him, to reduce the amount
of the pension for him, and, tf his
wife qualifies for a pension, re-
duce tt for her, too.

Combining Pensions

Bince many public employees are
entitled to retire at 55, and in
some uniformed forces leas, the
question arises about combining
both benefits, They may be com-
bined. The law requiring the
suspension of the Social Se-
curity pension — not the minors’
allowances — if income from gain-
ful employment attaing $1,200 in
one year, does not apply to pension

purposes they are taxable, under
