Erie County Aides Benefit

From United Action Of CSEA

95,000-Member Organization

(From Leader Correspondent)

BUFFALO, July 17—The message of united action made}
possible by a 95,000-member statewide organization ts being
beamed steadily to the approximately 6,000 civil servants on

the payroll of Erie County.
And because the message

is reaching every nook and

cranny of this huge area, signed Civil Service Employees As-
soclation membership applications are reaching CSEA offices

in increasing numbers.

CSEA field representatives
alded by ever-growing volunteer
committees — are carrying the |
CSEA message to every eligible
worker in the county,

Member Drive Progressing

*Our CSEA membership drive
fa progressing very well,” Presi
dent Alexander 'T. Burke of the

' Erle County chapter, reported |
today. “Most county workers who |
are made familiar with the CSEA
and its work are happy to become
members of our great organiza~
tion,

“We think we know a good
thing when we see it, And, more
and more county enployess are
secing it our way.”

Similar reports came from Ed-
win W. Stumpf, first vice presi-
dent of the Erie Chapter and head
of its mombership committee, and
from Prancis M. Casey, supervisor
of CSEA field representatives,
who is here to ald the membership
campaign

Albert Killian of Buffalo, CSEA
first vice president, is actively aid-
ing the membership campaign,

OSEA Can Back Claims

“We are stressing the solid ac-
complishments of our organtza-
tion, Any group can make claims
-~ but the CSEA can back up

} every claim we make in its be-
half.” he declared.

“We know that it was the CSEA
— and the CSEA alone — that
drafted and secured the passage
of legislation that put an addi-
tlonal 5 percent in pay checks of

thousands of civil servants. We
know this, And Governor Nelson
Rockefeller has publicly acknow-

ledged this fact.”

Michael J. Paust, president of
the CSEA unit at Meyer Memorial
Hospital, reported “complete sat-
{sfaction” with initlal organizing
efforts at the sprawling county
medical facility.

“Generally,
a fine reception,” he reported.
Our committee 1s hard at work
and it 1s shoving results.”

The hospital, the County Wel-
fare Department and the Home

have received |

& Infirmary in nearby Alden were |

prime organization targets, All
have large concentrations of civil
service employeos.

CSEA Field Representatives
Richard EB, Sage and Patrick G.
Rogers, assigned to “active duty”
in the membership drive pro-
claimed the effort, thus far, as
“far above expectations.”

The former borrowed the slogan
of @ great newapaper chain: “We
are giving the light,” he said,
“and the county workers are
finding their own way.”

The recommendations, as out

from CSEA President Joseph F.
Feily, would require that:

1) appointing authorities fn

ing an eligible further down the

2) appointing authorities file

Both recommendations pertain
to promotional appointments only.

The CSEA President pointed

out that the city of New York re-

Last week (July 10) the Board

the Onondaga chapter of the

State CSEA developed the plan.

Approval by the committee
would virtually insure the plan's
adoption for the county's more

The resolution itself states that

Board of Supervisors, every sup-
ervisor found on his desk a copy
of tho article published in a May

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE

By JOSEPH F. FEILY

President,
Civil Service Employees Association

LS ANE ESS ND
CSEA A Focal Point For Local Aides

The figures of the 1960 census cogently point out the main

interest of this column—the rapidly rising growth of the governmental |

personnel employed by the municipalities in the country. Between |
June 15, 1959, and June,1960, total governmental employment rose
316,000; 6,000 in Federal employment and 310,000 in state and local
government employment. Governmental employment 1s only exceeded
in official statistics by the numbers working in the durable goods
industry and those in retail trade. One out of every nine people who
work is employed by some governmental agency.

‘The great rise in local employment, !.c.—cilies, counties, towns |
ete., poses some first problems for any governmental employee |
association, Since the solution of local problems is not an easy or
simple matter, good organization and good programing are basic,

A state employee personnel problem can generally be resi
one focal point—the state capitol. Whatever the solution—the ex-
ecutive order, legislation or a tal ruling—it immediately
effects all of the state employees working witliin the geographical
boundary of the state.

ved at

This is not true for the local employee. In New York state each
of the 57 counties have, on an average, over 5 separate units of
government within their boundaries—county, cities, towns,
districts, etc, Each unit has its own executive and legislatt
Each unit has its own financing and tax problems, The pay scale
of a clerk in one unit may differ materially from the pay scale of
an identical clerk in an adjacent unit. The hours of work differ as
do the vacation and leave allowances. There ts little or no uniform-
ity and each employee problem must be solved within the adminis-
trative boundary of the unit wherein he works. Sometimes these
units are small with only a handful of employees measured by. tens,
and sometimes large with their numbers measured by thousands,

Thus it Is in an age when the voice of a few {s weak, and the
volce of many is strong, that local governmental employees are
Joined together for the solution of the many personnel and human
Problems which are constantly arising. Belng human beings they
have human needs, They need dignity, living wages, consideration
for health and old age. They need morale and work incentives,

The Civil Service Employees Association is ably equipped to
Tepresent the local employees, It has had good experience. It has
successfully dealt with mayors and county executives, with villages
And town administrations, It has successfully appeared before Boards
of Supervisors a4 well as city councils and Boards of Trustees. Its
staff 1s competent in the affairs of local government. In legislation
matters on the state level, the Association has never ceased to
advocate the passing on of state benefits to the localities,

The Association was instrumental in drafting the legislation
which enabled the municipalities to give thelr employees a pay raise
up to 5% by assuming the employees contribution to the retirement
system, The Association also was instrumental in the extension of
the Social Security benefits as well as the State Health Plan to the
localities. It has accomplished many changes in the retirement law
which accrue to the benefit of the local civil servant—the 55-year

plan, the two-years death benefit, insurance of retirement laws,
Vesting, etc.

The organization has also fought for Saturday closings and an
equitable miloage allowance. It has helped to get better pay scales
‘and leave schedules, It has opposed the ravages of political patronage
nd has upheld the principles of the civil service law. It has afforded
expert guidance and legal counsel when necessary.

All of these things it has done, They are not {dle claims, but
documented items, The Clvil Service Employees Association could
do more in raising the standards of the local elvil servant. But {t
Needs help—the help of membership. With increased membership, the

Coming Events

‘The Suffolk chapter is currently

units are being asked to estabilsh
grievance screening committees,

can be settled or screened out be-
fore reaching higher levels of dis-
cussion,

the Suffolk Civil Service Commis-
sion to include an employee repre~
sentative on the board which will
be created to hear appeals from
the reclassification study now
being completed in the county,
The reclassification ls expected to
be presented wthin a few weeks
| to department heads, and then to
jemployees, before going to the
Board of Supervisors for approval.

Harry Albright, CSEA counsel, to
come to Suffolk to assist in the
appeal programs, probably late
next month,

'Fosiag Over Eligibles

Should Be

HEN a New York City employee on a promotional ell-

gible list is passed up

must receive written reasons for by-passing the eligible. This
4s not true of New York State.

This week, the Civil Service Employees Association has
asked Governor Rockefeller to order appointing authorities
in state departments and agencies to file written reasons
for passing up an eligible in favor of one further “down the
‘st and to explain failure to appoint eligibles from a pro-
motion list when it contains less than three names.

The Employees Association called for the executive
action to prreveynt “unfair favoritism or discrimination in
civil service appointments and to build confidence in the

elvil service merit system.”

The merits o fthe CSEA argument speak for themselves
and we see no reason why the Governor should not issue
fan executive order on the matter at once.

Editor; The Leader:

‘There 1s a list of Senior Sur-
face Line Dispatchers that was
promulgated in February 1958, To
date no promotions have been
made from that list. However,

Below are questions on Social
Security problems sent in by our

question on Social Security should

ministration withhold some of sy

Over $1200, do I have to file the

Yes, It is Impossible to tell how
many checks are duc you without
information showing your total
annual earnings, You may have
some of the withheld checks re-
funded or you may owe additional
checks, but in any event you must
file the report with the Social
Security Administration within
three months and fifteen days
after the close of your tabalbe
year.

T lost an arm in the Korean
War, but it has not kept me from
working full time. I receive dis-
ability payments from the Veter-
Ans Administration on account of
this impairment and was wonder-
ing if social security benefits
would also be payable,

Disability benefits under social
security are payable only if a per-
won's impairment makes it impos-
sible for him to engage in any
substantial gainful work, Since
your impairment does not prevent
you from working, you are not
eligible for payments,

will sound like a Louisiana run-off.

ATTORNEY GENERAL Lefkowitz and State Comptroller Levitt
have written guest columns for me. Any candidate, including those)
two, is invited to write a guest column during the campaign. They are
tree to write as they please about their opponents, about themselves
or both, The only restriction Is that the column must be limited to
civil service law, present or proposed.

THE THEN SENATOR Kennedy had taken over a large share of
one of my columns during his campaign, and he won. Really, I have
@ sense of humor and I do not claim credit for that result. I am well
aware of the fact, that the then Vice-President Nixon did the same
thing, and lost, Well, this is the invitation and every man must decide
for himself whether he wants to accept it,

1 AM VERY GLAD TO see the competition so keen, “The More
the Merrier.” The competitive civil service thrives on political com-
petition. It is an actuality that beneficial civil service laws are at @
low point in units of government where there {s little or no political
competition and increase as political competition increases.

I AM THINKING, for example, of several counties where one
party had a virtual monoply for years,

THE CIVIL SERVICE had hat in hand and got little or nothing.
Lawmakers were cold, After World War II ,there was a shift in pop-
ulation towards those counties, The dominant party till dominated,
but its monopoly was broken. Here and there it lost a local legislative
seat, & Congressional seat, a judgeship. Consonant with this change,
more and better civil service legislation evolved. The situation reached
what seemed like the high point when the successful challenger for
the leadership of the dominant party accused the incumbent leader
of failure on regard to civil service legislation,

MAYOR FIORELLO H. La Guardia was another {Illustration of
the point I am making. He had no real competition. He was an ex-
cellent mayor in many respects; but he was the worst clvil service
mayor we ever had. His act, continued over a ten year period, of hav-
in a large group of teachers who worked full time called substitutes
and paid substitutes’ salaries was the civil service disgrace of the
century. The musical, “Fiorello”, now running on Broadway, does not
refer to this feature of the main portrayed as the local humanitarian,

WHEN POLITICAL competition intensifies, the civil service vote
becomes an election prize. The good of the civil service is sought

| desperately, Promises are made in the form of proposed legislation.

The legislation frequently follow. More sensitive people may not like
this method. Personally, I despise it. But things are as they are,

WE WILL BE INTERESTED TO learn the candidates’ civil
service proposals,

Hamburg Police

HAMBURG, July 17 — This

Erie County community has join-
ed the ranks of towns limiting
police appointments to town res-
idents.

The Town Board now requires
that all newly-appointed police-
men reside in the township,

Supervisor Charles J. Gaughan
noted that the town now may
“exercise control” over police ap-
pointments. He pointed out that
state law previously had permit-
ted men outside the town and
county to take civil service exam~-
inations for police posts and to
qualify on subsequent eligible
Usta,

“Now we can require that new
policemen live in the town from
the first day of their appointment,

group of Japanese highway offi-

the State Office Building.

Greeting the visitors were Rob-

Eight Japanese engineers at-
