ALBANY—A proposal to restrict the Legislature in mandating monied programs on

‘The telegram reads:

Hydra’s Descendants
YDRA, the many-headed monster of Greek legend, was
H a tough cookie with whom to deal. Chop off one evil
head and another would replace it before you could say
“Thanatopsis,." It appears that one of her great-great grand-
Gaughters is haunting the Constitutional Convention these
days in the form of a proposition that poses a tremendous
danger to local government employees.
The measure in concern would strip the Legislature of
its traditional and legal rights to mandate minimum stand-
ards of wages and employment In local government for such
vital areas as public safety, health, education, welfare, ete.
‘The need for the Legislature to so mandate such minimum
standards {s obvious; the needs of all citizens come before
the needs of political tightwads.
Two weeks ago, it appeared that the Civil Service Council
on the Constitutional Convention—whose membership in-
cludes almost all New York City public empployee organiza-
tions as well as the 151-000-member Civil Service Employees |
Assn—had fought a brilliant battle against this crippling
constitutional amendment when it was then known as Pro-
Position 1075A.
But when the vitality of the previously referred to Hydra,
the issue reared its ugly head again last week, this time un-
der the disguise of Proposition 1390. At this writing, civil
service forces were again being strongly rallied to battle and
firm commitments were in hand from leading convention |
delegates to block this retrogressive proposal once more,
While this whole proposition has enormous flaws its most
insidious provision 1s that any such mandated costs would
have to be approved by two consecutive sessions of the Legis-
lature. Income taxes, State aid, lotteries, etc., need only one
action by Senators and Assemblymen and the double stand-
ard set against civil servants by requiring double approval
of benefits 1s simply not to be tolerated—no matter how
many heads Hydra has.

TO THE EDITOR
According To Louie
Editor, The Leader:
Regarding the idea of doing
away with competitive exams for
civil service positions +
It could be that the competitive
struggle of man and his environ-
ment is all wrong. It could be
that America’s growth through
open competition is all areas is ®
terrible mistake.
An experiment is in order,
Do away with al competition.
Here are some positions you can
add to the appointee list:
1. High School Dropout Trainee
2. Purse Snatcher’s Assistant
3 Junior Mugger
4 Functional Tiliterate—Senlor
Grade
6. Junior Bookmaker
6. Apprentice Draft Dodger
1. Burglar Tool & Die Maker
€ Bank Robber (Provisional)
9, Hot Diamond Cutter
0. Heroin Distribution Clerk
‘The above positions do not re-
quire a test. You can even ap-
point yourself. The work is sea-
vonal, but the salary structure
eventually guarantees free room
and board.
Immediate openings are avatl-
ttle. Just go to 111 Smith Street,
Anywhere, New York State, knock
shree times and say:

Salary Discrepancy
In Nursing Service
Editor, The Leader:
This is intended to direct at-
tention to the prevailing discrep-
ancy between the salary range of
instructors in schools of nursing
and supervisors in nursing service
in the Department of Mental
Hygiene.
Instructors of nursing within
giene are required to have a
bachelor of science degree in
nursing and in many instances
additional educational courses to
qualify for the instructors exam-
ination, Many possess s masters
degree.
Supervising nurses without as
BS, or in many Instances, not
even college credits, qualify for
the same pay grade through ex-/
amination.
Where {s the incentive for
nurses to continue thelr educa-
tion? A nurse with no college pre-
Paration who by chance happens
to pass an examination qualifies
for the same pay grade as 8 nuree
who has studied diligently and
usually at her own expense to
qualify for a teaching position.
An added point; these courses are
not tax deductible,
Vacations and days off from
work mre centered around teach-
ing schedules and student activ.
itles, Nursing instructors work the
entire Summer, Fall, Winter and
Spring, and are barely allowed
free time with their families.
Supervisors within the present
system, can vacation and take
time at will. Nursing instructors
and nurse teachers not in the
Mental Hygiene system work »
nine month year and in most
cases enjoy more and better fringe
benefits,
Purther, instructors are blocked
from advancement under the
present system unless they change

Civil Service
Law & You
By WILLIAM GOFFEN
(Mr. Goffen, a member of the New York Bar, teaches law at the
College of the City of New York, ts the author of many books and
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)
Abuse Of Discretion
ORIGINAL APPOINTMENTS in the competitive class are
for a probationary term, usually for six months. Appoint-
ments of New York City patrolmen and of transit patrolmen
are for a probationary term of nine months, Upon satisfac-
tory completion of probation, a Civil Service employee ac-
quires tenure.
THE ADVANTAGE OF tenure is that the employee Is
secure in his position unless proof at a hearing of incompet-
ency or misconduct warrants dismissal. Unlike a tenured
employee the probationer may be terminated for unsatis-
factory performance without any hearing. However, a proba-
tioner who is dismissed is not without remedy, Judical re-
view may result in reinstatement when the dismissal con-
stitutes an abuse of discretion.
AVAILABILITY of judicial review places the probationer
in @ better position than one who Is arbitrarily refused orig-
inal appointment. The latter is barred from successful Judi-
cal review of his rejection under the one out of three rule.
A RECENT illustration of abuse of discretion In term-
inating a probationer ts the case captioned Matter of Bona-
parte (New York Law Journal, August 23, 1967). The peti-
tloner was appointed as a probationary transit patrolman on
December 1, 1965. On September 12, 1966 he was handed a
notice terminating his services for unsatisfactory perform-
ance, The reason why termination of his services was not
eleven days earlier was that his probationary term was
extended because of suspension from duty from July 14, 1966
to July 25, 1966, The Rules and Regulations of the New York
City Civil Service Commission required extension of the pro-
bationary term by the total number of days of suspension
without pay that interrupts the continuity of the proba-
tionary term.
THE ONLY criticism of the petitioner's services related
to a single incident on July 14, 1966 which led to the sus-
pension, On that day, while off duty, the petitioner attempted
to buy a quart of orange juice from a Bronx store knows as
“Los Naranjitenos Bodega.” The salesman, Eddie Ortiz, told
the petitioner that the price was fifty-nine cents, and they
got into an argument, As contended by the petitioner, Ortiz
then threatened the petitioner with a bayonet which had
been concealed under the counter. The petitioner drew his
revolver, According to Ortiz’s version, he seized the bayonet
after petitioner “drew his revolver”.
NEITHER PARTY used his weapon, and the petitioner
left the premises. Five minutes later he telephoned the transit
police operations unit for “instructions,” Transit Police Dep-
uty Chief Morris, however, stated that the petitioner “re-
fused assistance.” ‘ i}
WHILE THE petitioner was telephoning, two New York
City Police Department patrolmen approached him, and all
concerned went to the police precinct,
THE MATTER was presented to the Bronx County Grand
Jury. The petitioner signed a waiver of immunity and testi-
fied before the Grand Jury which fatled to take any action
against either the petitioner or Ortiz.
WITH THE failure of the Grand Jury to indict anyone,
the petitioner was restored to duty, serving until the dis-
missal notice of September 12, 1966, The discharge of the
petitioner was based upon the contention that when he was
threatened with a bayonet, he should have made an arrest.
THE ISSUE for the Court to determine was whether
the Transit Authority had abused its discretion in term-
inating the petitioner's employment, Was the petitioner's
Judgment so bad that he should have been discharged? The
Court, by Justice Charles J, Beckinella, held that there was
an abuse of discretion, stating that actually the young
Policeman showed good judgment under the circumstances,
He promptly after the quarrel ‘phoned his superiors and
followed their instructions,
JUDGE BECKINELLA observed:
It 1s a mark of good judgment for a young policeman
to seek the advice of his superiors, {f it is possible to do
80, after becoming involved in a dispute that is not with-
in his experience,

(Continued trom Page 6)
BESIDES, the fact that the)
Grand Jury did not indict any-
one Indicated that there was no
criminal intent on the part of
e'ther the petitioner or of Ortiz.
‘The dispute caused s crowd to
gather, and if the petitioner had
attempted to make an arrest, the
crowd may have reacted dis-
astrously. In any event, this was
10t @ case in which the petitioner
bad falled to protect « third per-
@on from assault.
THE COURT'S direction for re-
instatement of the petitioner is
Paradoxical in that if the same
Fotitioner had been arbitrarily re-
Yused original appointment the
Court would have been powerless
to help him under the unfortu-
mate precedents interpreting the
one out of three rule which I
have criticized in other columns.

News Of The Schools
By A. L. PETERS
Union—Board Negotiations Tally
In it first offer since June 30, the New York City Board
of Education last Wednesday presented a $51.5 million-
increase package which the union immediately rejected.
They, in turn, presented a counter-offer which was under
intensive discussion at Leader press time,
Negotiations were continuing at the end of last week.
A fact-finding panel headed by Archibald Cox was meeting
with Superintendent of Schools Bernard E. Donovan and
Ida Klaus, representing the New York City Board of Educa-
tion, and Albert Shanker and Jules Kolodny, representing
the United Federation of Teachers. Mayor Lindsay had given
the panel until Friday night to present an agreed contract
or submit a recommendation. The union claims it will not
be bound by such a report but welcomes mediation.
With school scheduled to begin Sept. 11, the union was
threatening mass resignations on that date, The last teacher
contract expired June 30. Comparison has been made with
an average $1,375 raise over 27 months given to policemen
and firemen but the teachers’ union holds this ls not a
consideration. Most of the minor issues of the 600 odd
have been disposed of. However, the basic {ssues—salaries,
the more effective school programs, programs for disruptive
children and internship and recruitment programs remain
unsolved.
The present contract provides a basic pay scale of $5,400
to $9,950 a year. The board’s earlier offer would have pro-
vided a range of $6,200 to $10,350. The union has asked for
$7,200 to $14,400, effective last July 1, and $7,500 to $15,-
000 next Jully 1. The Board's last offer is estimated at $1,400
per teacher including extended pension benefits.
Poverty Gouncil Ask:
More Voice In Plans
Some six hundred teenagers
and about three hundred adults
representing the N.Y.C. Council
Against Poverty dominated the
Aug. 30 public hearing on the al-
soeation of 70 million under Title
fof the Elementary and Sec-
ordary Education Act. The group
was urging increase of the $10
million allocation of moneys for
deventralized disbursement to $30
million the Board had specified.
In a prepared statement the plea
was made for “tranfer of decision-
making to the community level
with community groups and dis-
trict superintendents sharing in
the development and operation
of the program.”
In a 121 page booklet, the
Board last week had proposed a
budget. for the funds available,
largely from Federal sources, for
#0) items in 22 categories.
The council, which is recognized
&s\o disbursing agent for other
Pederal programs ts made up of
persons selected from disadvanc-
aged neighborhoods. In its pre-
*otation it held that too much
1 \the allocation for its diseretion
was limited to programs already
accepted and too little discretion
was left to local groups. “We
have been consulted about pro-
srams which already were wrap-
ped up, about funds which already
were committed,” they com-
plained,

Schedule Out Soon
An in-service training program
for New York City teachers, em-
bracing more than 300 courses in
% fields of study is being pre-
pared for announcement next
‘week.
Many of the courses have been
scheduled in direct response to
the suggestions of staff members
concerned with meeting the chang -
ing needs of the schools in all
areas on every level.
In addition, there are courses
sponsored jointly by the Board of
Education and outside institution’,
eepartments, and agencies which
efford teachers unusual oppor~

ular licenses and teachers et al

Protest New Principal
Title as “Pressured”
The new New York City Board
of Education title of “Demonstra-
non School Principal” announced
last week immediately drew the
threat of legal protest from the
Counell of Supervisory Associa-
tions.
The Council cites the basic
merit system provision that prir-
clpals be drawn from eligible lists,
The Board would like to select
specially qualified persons to
serve in three experimental school
districts In East Harlem, the Low-
er East Side and Brownsville seo-
tion of Brooklyn.
In an interview Mr. Joseph L.
Prennan Jr., the council’s presi-
dent-elect, asserted that the dem-
onstration school principalships
were part of a pattern in wich
the Board of Education and the
Superintendent of Schools were
yielding to “very small pressure
@roups.” The groups were 4e-
ecribed as small segments of par-
ents and “self-appointed” com-
munity representatives that did
not reflect the true interests of
the more than one million ohil-
dren in the City’s schools.
The council {s a federation of
J organizations of school admin-
istrators, Including the Association
of Assistant Principals.

The House Post Office and Civil Service Compensation
subcommittee last week approved Federal pay raises of 6
percent for postal employees and 4.5 percent for classified
Federal workers.
The new bill specifies that full
comparability will be reached
automatically for all classified
Federal employees by 1969, A
1968 pay bill will close the com-
parability gap by one-half ac-
cording to the legislation voted
out of committee under the
leadership of Rep. Morris K.
Udall of Arizona, the subcom-
mittee’s chairman,
The bill also allows that
postal employees will receive a
percent pay increase in 1968,
In addition, the salary level
grades in the postal service will
be extended from the present
twenty grades to 21, The new
levels would allow all postal
workers to be raised one pay
level before the Oct, 1 effective
date as is called for in the
fegislation.
Udall asked the Adminiatra-
tion to pass the bill although
its coat would be about $78 mil-
lion more than President John-

to nursing service, Instructors are
required to be better qualified

‘scale, but are not allowed to be
advanced to better positions ex-
cept that of principal of a nure-

Because requirements for im-
| Structors are rigid and the necee-
sary expenditure of time and
»| money required to qualify for this
position demand great motivation,
sacrifice and incentive, it is felt
| that instructors of nursing should
be reallocated to grade 20 to make
the field of teaching more attrac-

enter this field, The glaring va-
