‘Every Member Gets a Member’

CSEA Terms Fact Twisting

Circular of U

nion That

Failed to Get Group Life

Insurance As

A spiinter union that failed to
obtain a private group life insur-
‘nce plan for its members has
been accused of trying to cover up
Its failure by mttncking the insur-
atice program of the Civil Service
Employees Association.

An = Association spokesman
termed the union attack “sour
grapes” and said a union circular
completely twisted facts concern-
ing the Association program. The
clreular stated that the CSEA was)
opposed to free life insurance —
paid by the State — and would
have no membership without tts
group life plan.

‘The Association —_spokesman|
pointed out that paid-up Ife in-
surance in the form of ordinary |
Geath benefits wus strictly an As-
@oclation secomplishment in the
State and that the CSEA was)
Puahing to have the present bene-
fit doubled. It was also pointed
out that about half of the Assocl- |
ation members participate in the
wroup life plan and altogether
there are over 80,000 CSEA mem-
bers “who know the merit of be-
longing to a good — and honest —
employee organization.”

The True Facts

In refuting the union's truth-

twisting tactics the Association
spokesman cited the following
facta:

1, In 1957 and in 1958, Senator
Hatfield and Assemblyman Hanks
introduced legislation drafted by
the CSEA to provide for paid-up
Afe insurance in the form of the |
ordinary death benefit after re-
tlrement of 2e7s of the Em-
Ployees Retirement System. (1957
Genate Print 2392, Assembly Print |
2745. 1958 Senate Print 230, As-
sembly Print 393).

2. Prior to the last gubernatorial
@lection, the CSEA urged both|
major political parties, in writing,
to include in their party plat. |
forms assurance of increase of the |
@eath benefit under the Retire-
ment System and its increase after

France Sets An Example

ITIZENS of France recently were told that they faced,

an austere future that would contain higher prices,
higher taxes and reduced subsidies, In the French gov-|
ernment’s call for tight budgeting and reduced spending |
it was announced that wage increases were to be halted |
in private industry in order to counteract further in-
flation.

Despite the current financial crisis in that state
significant to note that a major exception was wadlai|
adjustment in the salaries of government employees.

In the midst of listing cutbacks,
and wage freezing it was announced that all govern-
ment employees would be granted a four per cent salary |

boost to bring them “more in line with workers in private | “open hiring” list for which appli-

industry.”

Here, now,
the absolute necessity not to let the civil service deteriorate |
through false economy or because of other financial pres-

sures. The wage increase for public employees was grant~ | pe.

ed by the French Government because it could not allow
the financial position of civil servants to deteriorate. The
fact that these workers lagged behind their counterparts
in private industry was justly termed “part of the emer-
gency situation.”

Certainly, both political parties in our State Legis-
lature must take recognizance of the logic behind the

reduced subsidies | ment in New York and New Jer-

is an outstanding example of recognizing during the year,

French action and realize this same logic must apply in

considering wage increases for State employees this year.

To state it simply, the State just cannot afford to
save money by depriving its civil servants of justifiable
salaries, The French have set a bold example in the face
of a critical financial situation, New York State can do
no less.

The Latent Reasons for Rejoicing
Over 75 Years of Civil Service

THE PROBLEMS IN CIVIL SERVICE administration remain
| Practically the same. What improves are the methods of solving
| them.

\ George Washington, the first President, had no domestic ex-
perience to guide him, but did well, nevertheless. He required that
appointees meet standards of merit and fitness, though he established
and applied them himself. Also, he made some exceptions whereby
former officers of the Continental Army were favored, even if they
were not members of his own political party, the Federalistx led by
Alexander Hamilton. Here you have veteran preference from the
very beginning, though on an exceedingly selective basis, In keeping
with the stratified nature of society of the times. Position in life
meant much more then than now, For example, the only men ac-
‘ceptable during the Revolution in the Second Continental Dragoons,
the Continental Army's Secret Service, were those with experience
in the war who were members of families of fortune. That was
| Washington's own requirement. Hamilton though practically Wash-
ington's Secretary of War during the last two years of the Revolu-
tion, could not have qualified for the army's Secret Service, though
shortly before the final battle of Yorktown he was recognized as
qualifying for promotion to Brigadier General in the artillery,
his “first love." Hamilton had gained Washington's eye originally
for the exceptionally fine artillery regiment he had formed in New
York.

Washington appointed Hamilton the new nation’s first Secretary
of the Treasury, and even the Republicans, as Thomas Jefferson's
political follow .» «ce then known, couldn’t suggest an nbler man,

In the beginning, as now, the Cabinet offices were filled by the
President with the consent of the Senate, However, Concress had
the authority to decide how lesser Jobs were to be filled, often dele~

gated the power. Naturally enough they were soon being filled poli-
Ueally,

Jobs Lost When Administration Changes

There was a large percentage of turnover in federal clerical
jobs with every change of administration, so much so that some
Presidents were disgusted with it, and the seeds of a competitive
system began to be sowed, though it took the fatal shooting of Pres-
Ident Garfleld to aroune the public to the need of Miling the run of
Jobs in the federal service on the basis of merit and fitness, Instead
of political backing, if not actual purchase, Garfield's assasin was a
disappointed officn-seeker,

The Civil Service Reform Association in New York City ‘played
& prominent part in getting legislation enacted that marked the

fighting for proper grievance machinery and other work-
ing benefits enjoyed by other state employees.
To date, Mr. Kennedy's main argument appears to
be based on the sole fact that he does not “believe” in
police unionism, This is not a sufficient argument.
Commissioner Kennedy's refusal to institute formal
grievance procedures for his men created the vacuum

Mayor did not specifically include the Police Depart-
ment, but when the issue was raised the Mayor declared
that that department was excluded, thus taking the |
stand for which Mr. Kennedy was striving, although the
firemen’s petition for inclusion was granted by the|

Mr. Kennedy often compares the Police Department —
grants one man the final decision on any matter, let alone
on grievances,

Also, with all his talk of refusing to have anything
to do in any way with unionism, Mr. Kennedy does in fact
grant semi-recognition of union practices by allowing the
representatives of the PBA to speak for patrolmen before
him in some instances. But Mr, Kennedy insists that the
PBA do things his way, which practically negates the
PBA's usefulness.

No other organiatiozn — no matter how small, how
large or what its nature is — denies its employees the
right to grievance machinery. Mr, Kennedy's denial is
medieval and intolerable, The world’s best-intentioned
police commissioner would be capable of mistakes, and
for policemen to have no recourse from bad judgment is
to reduce them to third-rate citizenship.

| This newspaper believes that Local 287 — or any}
other employee group — should have the right to have
policemen as members of their organiation. The depart-
mental rule prohibiting policemen from joining a union
is not only out of step with modern labor relations but
unfair to the policemen,

| Name-Calling No Solution

We disagree with some of the tactics proposed re-
cently by Mr. Feinstein, specifically his declaration that}
his union would block the supply lines of the Police De-
partment during a picketing session to force recognition,
This type of pressure would create considerable harm,
both to the cause of organized labor and the possibility
of ultimate official approval of policemen joining an em-
|Ployee group, Mr. Feinstein later withdrew from this
tactic.

There has been so much name-calling and accusa-

Increased Benefits
Under Social Security

More than half a million New
York City residents will receive
additional Social Security bene-
fits of more than upwards of two
}million dollars monthly said
Joseph B. O'Connor, regional di-
|rector, Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare.

‘The job of converting the bene-
fit amounts to reflect the increase
in payments authorized by the
1958 Amendments to the Social
Security Act has not been com-
pleted, sald Mr. O'Connor. He
pointed out that the increase need
not be applied for, but will auto-
matically be added to the checks
for January to be mailed out early
in February.

The amendment provided for
an increase of approximately 7 /
percent. He added, however, that)
not everyone's check will reflect a
full 7 percent. Some will get
slightly more, others slightly less.

Mr. O'Connor pointed out also
that all monthly payments to r
tired workers will be in ev
dollar amounts in the future, Pa;
ments to members of the worker's
family will continue in dollars and
cents,

The increased benefits were
made possible by an increase in
} Social Security tax contributions.
The tax rate for employees and
employers ts now 244 percent,

Rockefeller Message

Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller is scheduled to deliver his inl-
tial message to members of both State legislative houses, Wednesday,
January 7, 1059. Tt wil be interesting to see his proposals for the Civil
Service and its employees, The message will be in broad general
terms and a more detailed report will be given in his first budget

Members of the Civil Service Employees Association are looking
forward to proposals that will include a much needed salary mtse
for all State employees and funds to do away with the very serious
inequities that exist In State service,

Beware of the Scare

A raise for all State employees is a must in 1959, Last year we
said the same thing but the “big scare” then was the RECESSION,
‘The recession partly caused Governor Harriman to propose only &
very modest raise for most of our State employees. Some Members
of the legislature told us that things looked bad for the Country and
that our State workers still had their Jobs while many people be-

‘This year the scare is the State deficit of some 200 million dol-
Jars, Just as the nation recovered from the depression and the re-
cession, our State will wipe away the deficit that exists, They will

| attract new Industry into New York State which will provide addi-

tonal revenue to work with,

If necessary, an increase in taxes of some sort must be made to

are asked to submit sui

It has been suggested that our
chapter hold a dinner dance before
Lent, for members and thelr
guests. Your officers would like to
know how the members feel about
this. We would also appreciate
members sending hames of
people who are off ill, are retiring,
or other items so we may have
more write ups in The Leader,

Sometime after the first of the
year, the blood bank will visit the
hospital. We urge all employees
who are able, to sign up and give
blood, The hospital has a quota
to be a member of the blood bank.
‘This moans all employees and
thelr immediate family depend-
ents are entitield to blood free
when needed. This is good any
where in the country. The service
charged by a hospital for the
transfusion Is mot Included, but
there will be no charge for the
blood. Any person who signs to
give blood but is not accepted stilt
counts in meeting the quota. So
we urge all employees to sign up.
No one ever knows when they, or
somebody close to them will need
blood in an emergency,

sudden death of Esther Brown,
