need one. His only interest,
of course, is to see that New
York State is secure for Presi-

necine warfare coupled with
the fact that a favorite son,|
Governor Rockefeller, might

ance he needs about winning|

election.
What Smith Is Hearing
At this writing, Smith had)
already talked to most of the|
party's leading figures, from
Mayor Robert Wagner to State
Committee chairman William
McKeon to county leaders to
important party functionaires
to elected officials. It ts re-
ported that one of the most
important of county leaders
asked Smith “Why are you
here? We have cleared up the
inherited confusion and the
feuding. All that’s really
needed here is to give us
what we deserve—the ability
to speak to one man and get
fast action on patronage.”
Many leaders are said to
resent the lack of recognition
from Washington in terms of
patronage, access to the White
House and appointment to im-
portant posts. This lack of
recognition, they feel, has
Tobbed them of the prestige
that should normally be theirs
with a Democratic President|

Lankford Supports
Family Participation
Another bill has been intro-

‘The bill, which is sponsored by
Rep. Lankford (Dem.) of Mary-

present law allowing no more
than two members of a family

Falk's Reappointment
LEXANDER Falk has been renamed to the State Civil
Service Commission for a term ending in 1969.
Falk was paid unusual tribute in the State Senate when
his reappointment went directly to the floor for confirmation
instead of going first through a committee.
Both Republican and Democratic senators lauded Falk
and we certainly add our praises to the good news that
Falk will continue to serve both the government and its
employees. Six moreyyears of "Al", Falk, on the Civil, Ser~
Vice Commission ts also A-OK to the entire civil service body,
do not view the civil service test
in this light, Their feeling is that
the test 1s merely an impediment
to thelr being promoted, These
employees rarely consider that
they may not have the necessary
abilities to do the job to which
they aspire, nor do they accept
failure in an examination as in-
|dicative of this, Since they view
jthe test as a hurdle, anything
that helps them in surmounting
it is considered fair, This includes
appealing as many of the test
questions as possible in the hope
that enough of these will be up-
held to yield. a passing grade
‘With this as the approach to the
appeal system, it is no surprise
that “hundreds of protests on the
tentative key answers” are made,
‘The goal is not the achievement
of @ more discriminating test, but
rather the overcoming of an
obstacle,

‘The views expressed in this column are those of the writer and do
Bot necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper.
Improving The Climate
THE MORE ONE studies “Governmental Manpower for
Tomorrow's Cities” (McGraw-Hill; $6.95) the more one realize
that public relations is the key to the success of the program
urged by the Municipal Manpower Commission,
—THREE YEARS OF study under a Ford Foundation grant
resulted in the report which is now published in book form,
The sum total of what newspapers communicated to their
readers was this: independent civil service commissions should
be abolished.
ALMOST COMPLETELY ignored were a long list uf steps
to improve the climate of government service. For example,
the report urged that local governments should:
© Enact an ordinance which endorses merit principles
and places full responsibility for carrying out these prin-
ciples in the chief executive.
© Develop satisfying career opportunities for .APT
(administrative - professional - technical) personnel by
rapid promotion of qualified employees and by removal
of barriers which keep out experienced persons for middle-
rank positions. =
® Recruit vigorously both at college level and among
experienced public officials, on a nation-wide, continuing
basis where necessary.
® Make salaries for APT positions competitive.
© Provide adequate administrative and financial sup-
port to ensure modern personne! administration.
© Establish comprehensive post-entry training pro-
grams to prepare APT personnel. for higher, broader
responsibilities.
© Undertake much greater cooperation with other
governments to improve any or all of these conditions,
particularly in training, recruitment, and career develop-
ment.
THE COMMISSION insists that state governments should:
© Abolish any legal barriers which prevent local gov-
ernments from fixing responsibiltiy for personne] man-
agement in the chief executive.
© Establish a state-wide retirement system based on
transferability of credits so that an employee may move
from one public employer to another,
© Encourage national efforts toward a nation-wide
retirement system for all public employees.
WE MAKE NO judgment on pro's or con's of these rec-
ommendations. We do point out that whatever changes are
needed to improve the public relations of civil service must
have public understanding and support.
THUS THE Commission says that civic and political
leadership should:
© Insist on quality among APT personnel in local
government.
© Give aggressive, mature support to movements to
establish management-orlented merit systems,
© Exert influence wherever possible to make ma
power a significant political issue.

This three-part program — Blue Cross, Blue

swered in this column or by mail by the State Division of Veterans’
Affairs. Address questions to Military Editor, The Leader, 97
Duane Street, New York 7, N. Y.
Tax Benefits
VETERANS FIGURING their Federal income taxes need
not count as income any payments they have received for
veterans benefits, since these payments are wholly tax-free.
Dividends which veterans have received in 1962 on their GI
insurance policies also are exempt from tax reporting.
ALTHOUGH PAYMENTS for benefits are tax-free and
need not be reported on 1962 Federal income tax returns,
interest earned on GI life insurance dividends left on deposit
is not a “benefit” and Is taxable.
STILL TAX-FREE are the proceeds of a GI life insurance
policy, including the dividends themselves.
OTHER BENEFITS which need not be reported on Federal
income tax returns include; *
Education and training allowances for veterans of the Korean
conflict period who are in school or training establishments
under the Korean GI Bill.
Subsistence payments made to disabled World War II and
Korean conflict veterans training under the Vocational
Rehabilitation Acts,
Disability compensation and pension payments received by
veterans for service-connected and non-service-connected
disabilities,
Grants to seriously disabled veterans for homes designed for
“wheel-chair living.”
Grants for motor vehicles to veterans who lost their sight or
lost the use of their limbs.
World War I emergency officers’ retirement pay.
Death benefits to familfes of deceased veterans also are ex-
empt from taxation. They include death compe msation and
pension, indemnity and all GI insurance payments.

Rapid Recruiting Planned
For State Entrance Exam;
First Testing In March
“an important move toward further expediting of the State’s recruitment and year to start and has five an- ~
examining practices is inthe offing,” H. Eliot Kaplan, president of the State Civil Service
Mr. Kaplan revealed that plans are béing completed for testing on a regional basis
for entrance level (grades 3 and 4) clerical positions. The first such examination—in
March, 1963 will be designed to fill State positions in Albany county only,

vate industry,” Mr. Kaplan added,
“we are anxious to make our
hiring processes in speed and
efficiency comparable to those of
private compantes,
“There will continue to be
many kinds of positions for which
the traditional Statewide or na-
tionwide examination would be
most suitable," he said.
The new system ts designed to
facilitate the employment of
jmany better qualified applicants
who were formerly lost to the
State during the time between
the holding of an examination
and the use of the resulting eligi-
ble lists, A hoped for by-product
will be improved efficiency in
the testing and hiring process
through reduction of paper work.
There are nearly 7,000 clerical
positions in State agencies at
the entrance level, About half of
tests are in Albany, They in-
pelade such titles as clerk account

jand / office machine operator,

March examination, he said Cur-
vent lists for locations outside

A MOVEMENT has been started to seek reallocation and
reclassification of institutional clerical employees to compen-
sate them for working 40-hours a week instead of the 3714-
hour week enjoyed by their counterpart on central office pay-
roll—more information on this later.

THE BILL WILL permit these employees to reside in
Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester and Rockland Counties. When
is New York State going to realize that employment in the
correctional field is in a competitive market and salaries and
fringe benefits for State correction officers must be brought
into line if they expect to obtain and retain qualified per-
sonnel. Candidates for this type position certainly will be
attracted to City correction wher a spread of some 26% exists
between their salaries.

CIVIL SERVICE employment many years ago could boast
proudly of the benefits their employees recelved, not in
‘salaries mind you, but in benefits that did not necessarily
reflect in the state budget. Many corporations now supple-
ment their employees’ annual salaries with bonuses. They also
have excellent hours, vacations, sick time, time and one half
or double time for overtime, uniform allowances and even
have redress under the New York State Labor Law to protect
them in many other areas. As an example the “Readers
Digest” magazine granted all their employees a bonus of 15”
of their annual salary. This was the 32nd annual bonus,

The MHEA Meeting
THE WINTER meeting of the Mental Hygiene Association
was held on January 23, at the Wellingtor—Hotel, Albany.
Representatives from most of the State's mental institutions
were present.
DELEGATES busied themselves in the morning contacting
legislators re legislation and other programs affecting institu=
tional employees. z
DR. PAUL Hoch, ‘commissioner of the New York State
Department of Mental Hygiene, was principal speaker at the
luncheon. Mrs. Hoch also attended. Dr, Hoch devoted most of
his speech to the Department's recently adopted “Master
Plan” re mental hygiene facilities, the progress made thus far,
the work and plans ahead. Some of which consists of: retreat-
ment of chronically ill mental patients, establishment of more
units in Institutions for treating alcoholics, narcotic addicts,
emotionally disturbed children, active and increasing psychl-
atric services in the community, establishment of a research
center at Staten Island and approval by Governor Rockefeller
of the new program for retardees. On decentralization, Dr.
Hoch said “Pilgrim State Hospital (the State's largest mental
hospital) will ultimately wind up as six individual hospitals.”
OTHER SPEAKERS were: Issac Hungerford, administra-
tive director, New York State Retirement System; Joseph Fy
Felly, president, CSEA; Charles Lamb, 4th vice president,
| CSEA; William Blom, director of research, CSEA; Anna Bes=
sette, mentall hygiene representative, CSEA; and this writer.
Emil Bollman was toastmaster and Babs Slazenger, social
chairman, in charge of arrangements. John O'Brien, presi-
dent, M.HLE.A. thanked all who attended.
THE BUSINESS meeting was held in the afternoon. In
addition to committee reports and other business, considerable
time was spent in voicing opposition to the Department's re=
cent order forcing the liquidation of days in excess of four by
March 31, 1963 (or loss of same).
APPROVAL WAS given to investigate the possibility of
increasing accumulation of pass days up to 15 or 20 days and
that time to use up large excesses of credits be Increased from
6 to 12 months, Also approved was a motion for the payment
of overtime credits up to 50 days, A financial hardship on the
State, a little possibly, but how about the work hardship on
the individual who because of a shortage of personnel worked
this overtime so that services could continue satisfactorily,
MANY INSTITUTIONS permit little or no pass time or
overtime credits to accumulate and many representatives were
shocked when they heard that in some institutions this has
been the policy for a long time, Something ts wrong in Den-
mark when employees are permitted to accumulate 75 to 100
| days of pass and overtime credits, on one hand, and then are
told to speedily use up these credits and that payment of over=
time is mostly out of the question. This business poses many
questions—the anwers to which will require investigation and
