To Favor Pay

Raise Next Year

It has been rumored that Pres!-
dent Kennedy favors a pay raise
for Federal employees, to go into
effect sometime next year.

The raise may cost $1 billion
and would include $10,000 raises

parently to make Federal pay
comparable to that of private in-
dustry.

Included would be all US. em-
ployees, except laborers and other
wage board workers whose pay is
already equal to industrial rates.
The raises would come ‘not all at
once but would be spread over a
three-year period.

An Obvious Insult

ELFARE departments in New York City and throughout
the State were justifiably alarmed last year at on-
slaughts in the Legislature to lower the job requirement
standards for social Investigators.

Now comes Sen. Henry A. Wise (R-Watertown) with the
accusation that the Civil Service sometimes look more like
@ self-protection association than a job protection system.

His words, contained in a news letter to constituents, are
an affront to the career employees throughout New York.
That his efforts to make any section of the Civil Service
require less than the best failed is no reason to deliver a
wholesale condemnation of the Merit System.

Senator Wise owes civil servants an explanation and an
apology for his gratuitous remarks.

End of Filing Fees,
Lyons Law Applauded

OR sometime now these columns have called on Mayor
Wagner to eliminate filing fees for New York City jobs,
terming these fees a tax on the unemployed,

We have also sought an end to the Lyons Law on res-
idency, mainly on the grounds that it severly crippled re-
cruitment of men in the police and fire departments and
other city agencies.

This week, The Leader 1s happy to report that both
items are in the process of being rescinded on orders of
Mayor Wagner and we particularly congratulate the Mayor |
for acting so early on a plank in his election platform that
‘was of particular concern to the eity’s present civil servants
and those seeking city employment.

City Employees Ask
Mayor Wagner for
Health Plan Choice

(The following letter has been

sent 9 Mayor Wagner by @

| group of New York City em-
ployees) ;

We have written many letters to
you from time to time with the
hope that by this time the City
employees would have a choice
of joining more than one health
plan just as the Federal and State
|employees have at present, Un-
fortunately, up to the present time
no definite action has been taken
in thie matter,

Since the H.LP, is seeking an
increase in their rates, we believe
the time has definitely arrived
when you as the Mayor of the City
of New York should realize that if
we must pay more money for our
health insurance we should cer-
tainly be given a choice of plans.

Surely you realize that HLLP.

was the only plan we had a choice
ne

of accepting at the tin was
first presented to us | Since
then many fine insurance carrier
have submitted for study and
adoption a number of health plans
to your Health Insurance Board
with the view towards obtaining
for us the many fine additional
benefits H.LP, does not offer
Many of these other plans have
Since been adopted and the addi-
| tional benefits they offer us are
now enjoyed by Federal and State
| employees as follows, while we are
hopefully waiting:
1, Federal and State employees
are offered a choice of more

than one health plan, with a
cholee of doctors eft wide or
| Countrywide, HIP. limits us

to a designated pane) of their
own doctors, Also, when Fed-
eral and State employees re-
tire, they can xetain their
choice of plan which in many
instances Is recognized world-
wide,

H.LP, does not allow for this
expanded use of doctors whieh
is very important especially
to retired employees who are
more apt to leave the city from
time to time
Federal and State employees
have a choice of more than 21

LAW & YOU

ls BY WANE T, WERZSTEIN,
Mr. Hersstein is a member of the New York bar
(The views expressed in this column are those of the writer and
Bot necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper or ef any
organization.)

For You Who Like Retirement

CONNOLLY V. CONNOLLY, decided by the Court of Appeals a
short time ago (\N-Y. 2d 272) will be remembered by people in retire-
ment for a long time.

IT WAS A case in which the courts reversed themselves for each
step on the way up.

THE MUNICIPAL Court in New York City had
in favor of the defendants.

ON APPEAL to the Appellate Term
and was granted for the plaintiff.

ON APPEAL to the Appellate Division the Appellate ‘Term was
reversed and the judgment was granted for the defendants.

ON APPEAL to the Court of Appeals, the judgment was reversed
for the last time and once again decided in favor of the plaintiff.

THE PLAINTIFF finally won.

THERE ARE occasions when four courts pass on a ¢
occasions are very rare when each succeeding court revorses
ecessor—it may have happened before; but I do not ¥ aber it. That
was done here. Since the case involved a municipal employee and the
Retirement System, let us take-a look at it.

THE FACTS

THE PLAINTIFF is the executor of the will of Sylvester Connolly
who had been an employee of the City of New York until he retired,
He died about five year ago. As a member of the New York City Em-
ployees’ Retirement System, he had become entitled, upon retirement,
to choose, and he had chosen, "Option 1" as to his retirement benefits.
Under Option 1, if he were to die before he had received in payments,
the present value of his annuity, his pension or his retirement sllow-
ance, the balance was payable to his legal representatives, Sylvester
Connolly had designated James T. Connolly, Eugene Connolly and
| Edna Sorahan as the persons to receive such balance. James T, Con
nolly Is the one who brings this sult while Eugene Connolly and Edna
Sorahan are defendants.

FROM THE DATE of Sylvester Connolly's retirement until the
date of his death, the total monthly retirement allowances or payments
due to him and sent to him by (he Retirement System in the form of

| checks was $1,985.05, Oddly enough, he did not cash any of them.
After his death, Mr. James T. Connolly, the plaintiff, returned the
checks to the Retirement System and the correct amount of $1,985.05
was reeredited to the account. Mr. James T. Connolly took the position
that the $1,985.05 belonged to the estate rather than to the remainder
men so he paid one-jhird to himeelf arid sued the other two benefi-
claries for the other two-thirds, The Court staied the quesiion as
follows:

‘The question for decision were the amounts represented

by the uncashed cheeks ‘received’ by Sylvester Connolly during

his lifetime and so part of his testamentary estate, or, because

the checks went uncashed, did the amount thereof remain

benefit is payable only to those
between July 1, 1960 and
30, 1962

Priov to last year, each membet
of the retirement system got a
month's pay as a death benefit for
each year he worked for the state
up to Last year, a bill was
passed which granted an addition~
al month's death benefit for each
two years worked after 12 years,
This means that after 36 years,
the employe was entitled to @
death benefit equal to two years
pay.

The two-year benefit would be
extended another year under this
bill.

5—Clarifies to whom the state's
5 per cent payment in leu of sat

6—Simplifies payments between

system.

Why Three Bills

It takes three bills to continue
the state's 5 per cent contribution

one covers those under the state |
hospital system retirement plan
and one covers those in the edu-
cation system's retirement plan. | |

tive estimate of the cost of such
&@ move would be in excess of a
quarter of a million dollars,”

Mr, Feily, in his request to the
Department, had sald that “des-
pite successful legislation reduce
ing the work-week for most State
employees to 40 hours for a five-
day week in 1956, 1957, 1958, and
1959, an exception has been for
Canal employees. 7

“Like so many things in goy-
ernment,” Mr, Feily said, “ines
quities are permitted to continue
tinue in the work conditions of
State employees which would ba
condemned by the State Labor
Department in private industry."

, Mr, MeMorran pointed out that

his Department in the past hadi
given its endorsement to Associa-
tion-sponsored legislation that
would have included Canal em-
ployeea in the mandated 40-hour
work-week for other State em- »
pibyees,

Ho said the Association has
“our continued whole-hearted ap-
proval of an action that may?
legally be taken to offset overtimia
now required for the operating
staff on our Canal system,”

Mr, Felly told The Leader that
“Superintendant MeMorran's re-
ply to our request indicates tht,
Department's full approval of an
all-out drive to accomplish this
much needed work-week reduo-
tion in the present session of the
Legislature,

“Because of this approval I tn
tend to request Mr, MoMor

ration to give its unqualified
port to Association legislation
