Half Pay Retirement
TALK OF IMPROVING T retirement benefits for state em-
ployees is being heard from responsible sources, Assembly speaker,
Carling, Comptrotier Levitt and Joe Folly, C.S.8.A. president have
come up with possible improvements in recent statements to the press
LET'S GO BACK and pin point the reason for this optimistic
outlook. The New York State Retirement System has well over a
billion dollors in assets, A great deal of this money has been tied up
in so-called low interest bonds, In the past few years these bonds
haye been reaching maturity and Comptroller Arthur Levitt has
put this money to work at greatly increased interest rates, No
Einstein ts necessary to figure out that a billion dollars at 214%
earns 25 million a year, but at 5% earns 50 million a year, This
increased earning power of y ‘etirement contributions now makes
possible more benefits to members of the retirement system,
THE COMPTROLLER ON numerous occasions has advocated |
4 non-contributory retirement system, with the state of New York
paying the full tab for it’s retired employees, Joe Pelly, CS.EA
president is on record for a guaranteed half-pay retirement for all
state employees with no so-called “deficiency payments",
SPEAKER JOE CARLINO said the Republican majority had
the pension situation under study with « view towards increased
liberalization.
ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS a}
pressed with Joe Peilys “guaranteed half-pay" proposal.
THE QUESTION WILL BE raised: If the Comptroller wants
a free pension svstem, why should anyone, advocate any alternative?

the first 5°) of the contributions towards retirement, the employee

Who's To Blame
For Moonlighting
EW York City firemen have been informed that they
face immediate dismissal if found working any other
job other than fire-fighting.
We have no comment on the Fire Department order
itself but we feel that the causes and effects of “moonlight-
ing” are important enough that the issue of outside work
deserves to be more properly focused,
The real issue is not that firemen seek outside employ-
ment, per se, but that many feel they MUST have additional
income in order to maintain a decent standard of living,
‘The same applies to other City employees.
The cause of “moonlighting” ts low salaries, The effect
is tnat City officials feel that outside employment reduces
efficiency on the job.
It would appear obvious that the real solution to ending
outside work ts to erase the cause—low salaries. No one
really wants to work two jobs. But when economic need Is
so great that innumerable employees will take the risk of
outside work, even though they are aware it is cause for
dismissal, then the pressures that bring such chance-taking
are formidable, indeed.
We place the blame for extensive violation of rules on
outside Jobs on the City—not the men who act in despera-
tion. When the City pays a proper wage, the cause for extra
employment is gone
Police Eligibles
Deserve An Answer
T HAS now become apparent that Mayor Wagner, and
not the City Department of Personnel, will have to settle
the fate of the hundreds of current police eligibles who fear
their standing for police jobs will be eliminated.
Police Commissioner Stephen Kennedy has said he does
not want to appoint men from the present lst. He does not,
however, have the personal authority to throw out the list
and establish a new one.
The Department of Personnel, at this writing, has given
no public announcement upon whether or not it agrees
BEekmon 3-4010
with Mr. Kennedy; whether or not it has a definite plan |
of action,
On the other hand, Mr. Kennedy has taken a definite
stand and one that must be answered—one way or the other.
From past experience, one can safely assume that the only |
person who will answer Mr, Kennedy in a manner that will
settle the issue is Mayor Wagner.
Mr. Kennedy usually manages to have his way with
the Mayor, Whether or not he will have his way again Is
speculative and {t is this very speculation that is so unfalr
to the hundreds of citizens who want their chance to be
tested before being rejected as police material.
We feel it would be a wise thing for the Mayor to answer
his constituents on this issue and, while acting in this area,
fo get a permanent director appointed for the Personnel
Department so it can function properly on matters such
Looking Ahead
HIS week, more than 700 delegates to the 50th annual
meeting of the New York State Civil Service Em-
ployees Association at Kiamesha Lake, N, Y¥,, are propound-
ing a legislative program designed to serve the financial and
working needs of thelr 90,000 members in state, county and
elty employment.
The conclusions they reach when setting salary and
Job benefit goals will not be the result of wishful thinking,
In the months prior to this gathering they have employed
technicians and specialists to gain the proper facts needed
to support improvements in public employment, These facts
have been analyzed realistically and sensibly and impossible
@emands are not planned,
Aa result, the meeting will conclude with the drawing

well as other LP.N,’s that work
with me, feel there should be #
reclassification and we should be

vi LAW & YOU

Expiring Eligible Lists
WHEN AN ELIGIBLE LIST js wbout to expire, there is fre-
quently concern and disappointment on the part of many people on
the list, They have paid a fee, taken an examination and passed it,
been declared eligible for a job and everything else, but time has run
Out against them. The reaction is usually a frantic: “What can I do?"
VERY RECENTLY, Judge Pred J, Munder, of the State Supreme
Court, who sits in Long Island, wrote an excellent opinion which
covers all the important phases of this problem. The Judge is a
former district attorney and county judge of Suffolk County, and ts
® man of considerable experience, More and more, there Ip a recog-
nition of the importance of civil service law on Long Island due to
the growth of county and local governments and schoo! districts,
which In turn ts due to the enormous influx of residents from New
York City during the post-war period
ACCORDING TO IRVING FLAUMENBAUM, the veteran presi-
dent of the Nassau County chapter of The Civil Service Employees
Association, Inc., there are in Nassau County alone approximately
56,000 public employees who work for the County and local govern-
ments and school districts, He further informs me thut there are
well over 100,000 public employees who both reside and work on
Long Island and who reside on Long Island but work elsewhere.
JUDGE MUNDER'S opinion was rendered in a Suffolk County
case entitled “Matter of Vollmer (Thom)". The action waa brought
against the Suffolk Countcy Civil Service Commission because it had
revoked an eligible list for police patrolman in the Town of Babylon,
|The petitioner claimed that the list was valid and that the revoca-
tion of tt was wrong,
THE LIST BECAME effective on August 20, 1957, for a period
of one year and expired on August 19, 1958. Judge Munder pointed
| out that the life of « list may be fixed for not less than one year nor
| more than four years. That statement is a summary of the provision
In Section 56 of the State Civil Service Law, and the determination
of the life of # list within those boundaries is up to the local com-
missions, In this case the Judge pointed out that the Suffolk County
Commission by rule had fixed the period of this ‘ist for one year,
Judge Munder arrived at the following conclusions:
1, WHEN A COMMISSION fixes the life of aw Jist at less than
| four years, then prior to the expiration date, it may extend the list
| Up to four years. He clearly recognizes that your state commission or
|Your local commission has this power,
2, ONCE A LIST expires, no commission may extend it
3. ONCE A LIST expires, not even the legislature may extend
jit. The Judge cites certain oases, the leading one being Carow vy, The
| Board of Education, decided by the Court of Appeals in 1938 in an
jopinion written by Judge Lehman, the former Governor's brother.
Tn that case the Court held that once a Ust had expired even the
legislature had no power to extend it. It held further that if the list
had not expired, the legislature could extend {t for any period, even
in excess of the four year pertod. This is due to the fact that the
four year maximum {s imposed by the legislature and the legislature
can always amend a statute which it hes previously enacted
IN THE CASE BEFORE Judge Munder, he wrote:
“THE ATTEMPT HERE to extend the list after the expiration
date was wholly ineffectual, Consequently any further resolution
purporting to extend the list or to revoke it was likewise legally in«
effect, There is then nothing for the court to review in this pro-
ceeding and the petition must be and is dismissed,”
IN OTHER WORDS, the Judge pointed out that once the list
had expired, the Commission could not revive it, and since it could
Hot revive it, It could not revoke it because there was nothing for
| the Commission to act on. Consequently the employee who com-
|plained about the revocation really had no complaint because what-
ever the Commission did meant nothing since the Ust had expired,
REMEMBER, if your list is about to expire and hua a life of less
than four years, you can have your commision extend the life of
the list If you can get it to act before the list expires, If a four year
Ust ts about to expire, then the only body which can extend it for
you is the legislature, provided that you can get it to act before the
four years had passed,

Prices won't stay down just because you tell them to. But
Con Edison has managed to keep the price of electricity
down, even though we pay more for most everything that
goes into supplying you with electricity.
Because the average home we serve uses more than
twice as much electricity today as it did 15 years ago,
naturally bills are higher.
But in spite of our increased costs, the average price per
kilowatt-hour has come down from 5.04 cents in 1945 to
4.07 cents today.

Assistant Housing
Managers Meet With
Civil Service Comm.
Representatives of the Associa
tion of As: i Housing Ma
gers met mally last week with
the New York Ci 1 Service
Commission to discuss the Com-
mission's decision to hold an open
competitive examination for hous-
ing manager as well es & promo-
tion test
The Association contends that
there are enough qualified assist-
Ant housing managers available
who can pass the promotion teat
for housing manager to fill all
the Housing Authority's needs in
this title.
But the Civil Service Commis-
sion stuck by its decision to hold
the open-competitive examina-
tion.
‘The Association also complained
that the experience requirements
spelled out in the official an-
nouncement of the open competi-
tive test were vague.
The Civil Service Commission
told the assistant managers’ rep-
Tesentatives thit setting of such
requirements was up to the Com-
mission and was based on the
needs of the service, but that the
gsr required would be of
a bieh level.
