Suffolk CSEA
Signs New Pact

(From Leader Corespondent)
SMITHTOWN—Civil servants in Suffolk County reached
a new era of solidarity last week as they hailed a new con-
tract, headed by a 12 percent salary increase. The pact was

ratified by an 11 to 1 vote.

Tt was acclatmed as the greatest |f,6 ‘Teamsters never showed up,”

gain ever achieved by the Suffolk
chapter of the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn., and probably the
best pact to be achieved any-
where In New York State this year.
The contract lifts Suffolk em-
ployees from a trailing position
compared with other groups in
both public afd private employ-
ment,
A side benefit was a substantial
increase in the rate of new mem-
bership. More than 100 persons
folned at the ratification vote.
Chapter president Robert Villa
sald that “In the next few weeks
We can pick up several hundred
new members, and that's what
we intend to do.”
Teamsters Kayoed

The contract and the lopsided
vole, according to Villa, reflected
the results of CSEA solidarity.
“The much-ballyhooed strength of

he added.

“The research that went into
preparing our case and the dedi-
cation of our negotiating team
enabled us to prove our points. On
this package we are not going to
be topped by many, if anyone, this
year.”

Suffolk County Executive H, Lee
Dennison had supported the agree-
ment all along as “equitable,”
and John V. N. Klein, chairman
of the County Board of Super-
visors, said it was “fair and rea-
sonable to both sides.” He added,
“I found myself ag the spokes-
man and ultimate negotiator for
the county, and sometimes it 1s
not a pleasant situation, but it
is one that someone must handle.”

‘The ratification vote was 2,191
to 199, Klein said the package pro-
vides $3,330,000 in wage increases

and 554,000 in benefits in 1969.

Nassau Aides Voting On Pact

Offering 11-20

Percent Boost

And Significant New Benefits

(From Leader Correspondent)

MINEOLA—At Leader press time, members of the Nassau
chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. were balloting
on a $10 million package that would assure them of an 11
to 20 percent increase in earnings.

The agreement provides a flat
‘even and one-half percent pay
boost, with a minimum of $600
in 1969 and a proportionate in-
Stease for hourly employees.
Among other major benefits are
fully-paid family health insurance,
Worth from $176 to $255 depend-
fg on the type of coverage and

Another major {tem is an addi-
tional longevity step after the 15th

Employees were balloting on
pact acceptance Sunday morning
at Building J at Nassau Commun-
ity College.

The boost came after the 14th
meeting between a CSEA negotiat-
ing team and the county. CSEA
had already called for the aid of

of demanding a fact-finding panel
to report to the public.

Salaries will go up five percent,
with a minimum of $400 January

half pereent, with a minimum of
$200 July 1. With the normal in-
crement and new benefits, em-
ployees will be earning 11 to 20

longer valid.”
‘The United States Court of Ap-
peals, Fifth Circuit, ruling on a
case involving death benefits
paid by the Georgia Survivors’
Benefit Program, held that a
binding arrangement of risk shift-
ing and risk distribution con-
stituted life insurance for tax
purpose, the Comptroller noted.
Proceeds of life insurance nor-
mally are exempt from income
taxation,
The Internal Revenue Service
had previously ruled that the
death benefit paid by the New
York State Retirement System
could not be treated as insurance
because it did not have the form
of Hfe insurance, but the Fed-
eral appeals court rejected that
argument, Levitt explained.

Tax Cuts Benefits
In announcing his request, the
Comptroller told The Leader:
“The change I have requested is
of great importance to the bene-
ficlarles of members of our Re-
tirement Systems, inasmuch as
the income tax presently being
collected deprives the benefictary
of @ large share of the benefits
to which he or she is entitled, I
shall do all in my power to secure
a reversal of this obsolete ruling
by the Internal Revenue Com-
missioner.”

ALBANY—State Comptroller Arthur Levitt has asked the Commissioner of the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service to reverse previous rulings and exempt the ordinary death bene-
fit provided by the State Retirement Law from income taxation.

In the letter to Sheldon S. Coren, Levitt said, “it is now apparent by reason

New York City mayoralty race of
next year and the Senate and
gubernatorial races of 1970.

Let's take New York City first.
When John V. Lindsay was elected
mayor three years ago the town
took on such a “swinging” air that
it was soon termed “Pun City,”
An air of great optimism permeat-
ed everywhere despite the initial
chill of a costly subway strike,
which had started before Lindsay
took office. Since those first light-
hearted days, Lindsay's sunny pol-
tical skies have taken on a dark
overcast and he is in serious
trouble with the voters here, large-
ly because of the school strike
and other unrest.

Political forecasts—like weather
forecasts—can change quickly and
a year Js a goodly time for Lindsay
to recoup here. If he doesn't, how-
ever, the Democrats appear likely
to recapture City Hall at this writ-
ing and they have a variety of tal-
ent to nominate for the job. Two
men with strong labor mediation
backgrounds—ex-U.N. ambassador
Arthur Goldberg and Theodore
Kheel, noted for years of success
in the labor mediation field, come
to mind as candidates with appeal
on the grounds they could ease
Yabor difficulties in this City

The gubernatorial contest of

‘There has been talk that he would

take a Federal cabinet post should
Richard Nixon be elected Presi-
dent. Should this occur, the gover-
nership for now would go to Lieut.
Goy. Malcolm Wilson, whom
Rockefeller has endorsed publicly
as his political heir in that post,
and Wilson will seek the election
one way or another in 1970. His
only important rival at the mo-

now, no one can claim to have an
inside track on the gubernatorial
nomination. There are ® good
many likely candidates, however,

1970 will also see a U.S. Senate
race, Charles Goodell, appointed
by Governor Rockefeller to fill
the vacancy created by the death

surely carry the Republican ban-
ner again in that contest.

For the Democrats, the mayor-
alty and gubernatorial races will
probably take precedence as far
as pre-convention scrambling goes.

All in all, there will be no rest
for the political-minded in the
next two years.

Commissioner’s Ruling
On Complaints Upheld

ALBANY—The State Grievance
‘Board has rejected an appeal by
vocational rehabilitation counsel-
lors in the State Education De-
partment, upholding a ruling by
the State education commissioner.

‘The counselors have objected
to being required to handle com-
plaints by clients over frequent
delays in gettting their main-
tenance checks.

‘The checks are handled by the
department's finance office, and
the counselors contended that
much of their time was being
wasted by calls to the finance of-
fice that could be handled quick-
er and more efficiently by the
finance office.

The department ruled that the
counselors should handle all re~-
lationships with the client, con-
tending that the finance office
itself did not have the personnel
to handle the calls,

‘The board stated that the com-
missioner of education should “re-
tain the authority to determine
the methods and means by which
the program is carried out.”

Te board’s decision did not ex-
plain, however, how the depart-
ment ruling actually would reduce
calls to the finance office over
non-issuance of checks or delays.

An indication that the board
fe all was not perfect in the
present setup, however, was con-
tained in the decision. The board
stated:

“tf this problem persists, the
board suggests that the parties

QUITE OBVIOUSLY our
know all they can about improv-
ing their public relations by com-
municating more effectively
through the use of simple English.

ONE READER wes quite vehe-
ment in suggesting that the State
Civil Service examiners in Al-
bany could profitably learn the
lesson of simple English “when
they draw questions on Reading
and Report Writing.”

OF COURSE we were includ-
ing all civil service people, par-
ticularly examiners, in our ap-
peal for better communications
through simple English.

WE CAN’T think of a better
source for tips on how to use
simple English than “The Ele-
ments of Style" by Prof. William
Strunk Jr. and E. B. White (Mac-
millan paperback: $1). Miore spe-
cifically, we would like to con-
centrate on Mr. White's contribu-
tion to this paperback gem, which
the late Prof. Strunk developed
in his English classes at Cornell,

HERE ARE Mr. White's sug-
gestions for developing a style
when one depends on simple Eng-
lish in writing anything—letters,
answers to exam questions and, by
all means, the questions them-
selves:

@ Place yourself in the
confer, as required in the Ex-
ecutive Order, to strive for an
acceptable solution.”

In presenting their case, the
counselors pointed out that once
they had recommended that main-
tenance be paid to a olient, they
no longer had any control or in-
formation about the issuance of
the check.

They argued further that ob-
taining the information on these
inquiries wasted their time, and
prevented their doing other more

valuable work.

Mr. Rath, 61, died Oct. 28 of
« heart attack. He worked in his
office Saturday,

Mr. Rath ,earlier this year, had
recognized Erle chapter, CSEA
as the Taylor Law bargaining
agent for Erie County workers
and, at the time of Mr, Rath’s
death, a CSEA bargaining team
was negotiating a contract with
county officials. .

“I see no disruption In the
negotiations,” said Neil V. Cum-
mings, Erie chapter president,
“Mr, Rath, as the county execu-
tive, recognized the CSEA but
his action represented the offi-
clal policy of Erie County, as
far as I can determine.”

Services Held

Funeral services were held for
Mr. Rath last Thursday after his
body laid in state for 24 hours

CSEA Charges Bad Faith

By Seneca Cty Supervisors
Causes Negotiation Impasse

ALBANY—The State Civil Service Employees Assn. has joined the fray between the
Seneca County CSEA chapter and the County Board of Superviors, accusing certain mem-
bers of that government body of “bargaining in bad faith and intimidating its employees”

(Special To The Leader)

during the current hassle over negotiations,

CSEA representatives recently
declared an impasse in negotia-
tions with the county and asked
the State Public Employment Re-
lations Board to intervene in the
contract dispute. A mediator as-
signed by the State agency failed
in an attempt to settle the im-
passe. An impartial fact-finder
has been assigned to the case by
PERB,

“To subsbtantiate our cause and
to live up to the true spirit of the
Taylor Law, our Seneca County
chapter has agreed to abide by
the recommendation of the fact-
finder assigned by PERB," said
Theodore C. Wenzl, president of
the State's largest public employee
labor organization.

Ignored Agreement

‘The current wrangle stems from
charges by Louls T, Shaw, CSEA
field representative assisting the
county chapter in its negotiations,
that the Board of Supervisors ig-
nored the tentative agreement
made between Shaw and the
county's negotiating team and in-
stead unilaterally drew up what
it considered to be a set of coun-
ter-proposals.

“The twist here,” sald Wenzl,
“is that the supervisors apparently
ignored the recommendations of
their own negotiating team. Even
more blatant is the fact that the
County Board has brought its so-

called counter proposals directly

to the employees for approval, by-
passing CSEA, the oganization {t
designated as the bargaining
agent for these same workers.”

Continuing, the CSEA president
said: “We see in this high-handed
action a clear violation of the
Taylor Law and a direct attempt
at employee intimidation. We have
reports that our members are re-
luctant to make any public state-
ments in defense of their position
for fear of reprisal.

County’s Bad Faith

“We feel,” sald Wenzl, “that
negotiations on the part of the
county were conducted in bad
faith and completely reject a
charge made by a county official
that members of the CSEA bar-
gaining team were ‘naive’ in
thinking that the county would
accept the first CSEA proposal of-
fered. We are well aware that
proposals, countre-proposals and
compromise are a part of collec-
tive bargaining and that a gov-
ernment’s negotiating team cannot
make binding commitments.

“At the same time, it is com-
mon practice for government
negotiators to discuss the various
areas of negotiations with their
legislative leaders in order that
they may arm themselves with
offers the county would be will-
ing to go along with, CSEA was
led to believe that this was the
case in Seneca County, and in

good faith, our representative af-
fixed his signature to the tenta-
tive agreement at the reqeust of
the county bargainers. We were
also under the impression that
approval of this agreement by the
Board was only a formality, I
would say the word ‘naive’ was ap-
Plied to the wrong party.

“The question here is knowl-
edge of the law governing col-
lective negotiations, It is apparent
that these county officials are ‘n-
experienced in this area, The law
is new, granted, but CSEA is nego-
tfating in more than 250 other
local jurisdictions in addition to
the State and has signed more
than 100 contracts. Our represen-
tatives are thoroughly famillar
with the law and with collective
bargaining — procedur Wenal
stated.

“Furthermore, we strenuously
object to the smear campaign be-
ing waged by certain political ele-
ments against our representative,
Mr .Shaw. Public statements made
to the effect that Mr. Shaw is not
qualified to represent our mem-
bers in Seneca County are both
vicious and groundless,

Muscular Dystrophy has been
almost certainly linked to

a metabolic defect — some
faulty link or links in the chain
of chemical reactions by which
the body breaks down food

to produce energy and restore
tissues. It is known that the
initial “error” occurs in the
hereditary materials within the
cells, but just how this error
gives rise to the metabolic defect
has yet to be determined.
Additional research is necessary.
} Both basic and applied
research continue. Basic research
concerns itself with the study
of muscle, its structure, cell
components, metabolism and
manner of functioning.
Applied research tackles such
tasks as comparing the structure
of diseased and healthy muscle
fibers, or substances found

in the blood and excretions of
MD victims and normal persons.
The Muscular Dystrophy
Association of America sponsors
a unique research facility, the
Institution for Muscle Disease.

» In addition, local chapters
sponsor programs to help those
who have been stricken by MD.
Each November, MDA conducts
its annual campaign to secure

Civil Service Peace

HILE New York City’s uniformed forces appear to be

easing off on strike threats, the school walk-out still
appeared grim at Leader press time. Suffolk County averted a
major work stoppage by 11th hour action on a new con-
tract with the Civil Service Employees Assn, last week and
CSEA js conducting closed negotiation talks with the State
at this time.

In general, therefore, 1t would appear that the public
employee scene is getting a little loosened up but it can still
get tight again if negotiations do not move along, backed by
proper advanced planning.

New York State has had a rather enviable record of labor
peace for decades and most upstate communities have had
little problems with civil servants to date. Things can stay
that way if negotiations now underway continue with a reali-
zation on management’s side that public employees are en-
titled to and intend to get first rate working contracts.

It would be a sorry mistake for anyone to think that State
and local government aides want to stage demonstrations,
sit-ins or strikes just to show muscle. The public service has
simply learned that it was going nowhere with the old hat-
in-hand routine and it doesn’t intend to act that way again,

But most public employees are responsible workers. If
management shows its sense of responsibility, too, there is no
reason why a full measure of peace cannot be restored to the
civil service sector.

Levitt's Helping Hand

OMPTROLLER Arthur Levitt has asked the United

States Internal Revenue Service to exempt from taxa-

tion the ordinary death benefit provided to State workers
under the State Retirement Law.

Levitt views this benefit as another form of a life insur-
ance policy, which would be exempt from taxation. The In-
ternal Revenue Service somehow didn’t see the similarity but,
fortunately, the U.S. Court of Appeals did.

On the basis of the Court’s ruling, Levitt is now asking
the Federal government to make this tax exemption effec-
tive immediately and, in so doing, is rendering public em-
ployees everywhere a great service.

ALBANY—In a recent decision,
the State Public Employment Re-
lations Board denied a petition
iby an affiliate of the AFL-CIO
to separate custodial workers in
an upstate New York school dis-
trict from other non-professional
employees.

The board said it found no rea~
son to require two negotiating
units, noting that all non-profes-
sional employees were being paid
in the same manner and all, ex-
cept busdrivers, received gen-
erally the same fringe benefits.

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR

Negotiations

Editor, The Leader:

Salary and Pension negotiations
are being conducted at present
‘between the State Administra-
tion and CSEA representatives.
‘Good.

Let us not pre-judge the out-
come. It 1s easy to criticize and
grumble (even without the facts).
Who can say whether a salary
increase for a relatively new em-
ployee of the State is more urg-
ently needed or more equitable
than a realistic pension for a
veteran employee who would like
to retire but cannot afford to
do 50?

‘The Empire State has a won-
derful opportunity now to show
how turmoil and bitterness can
be avolded by coming up with
‘an enlightened salary and pension
adjustment,

Fortunately, our State legisla-
tors have already established a
20-year, half-pay pension plan
which can serve as a model for
pension reform.

So, let's “cool it”! Have faith
im the fairness and integrity of
‘our system.

Law & You

By WILLIAM GOFFEN

(Mr, Goffen, » member of the New York Bar, teaches law at the
College of the City of New York, is the author of many books and
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)

Penalties & The Courts

THE GAP IN permissible penalties imposable by the
Commissioner under the New York City Administrative Code
in disciplining firemen for misconduct or incompetency some-
times makes it impossible to fit the punishment to the vio-
lation. After authorizing a reprimand or forfeiture of not
more than ten days’ pay, the Administrative Code (Section
487a-12.0) states that the “offending party” may be dis-
missed from te force. Accordingly, in those cases in which
the offense may not be adequately penalized by a ten days’
loss of pay, the only remaining alternative 1s dismissal al-
though this may be too severe. A similar criticism may be
made of the disciplme provisions of te Civil Service Law,
Section 75, though this statute gives more leeway than the
cited provision of the Code.

THE PROBLEM IS met by the courts through the ex-
ercise of complete authority to substitute an appropriate
penalty for that imposed by an administrative agency. Such
authority is given by the Civil Practice Law and Rules,
Section 7803(3).

EMPLOYEE RESORT to such judicial authority 1s illu-
strated in Bevino y, Scott (New York Law Journal, October
11, 1968, page 1). Bovino was dismissed after twenty-six
years’ satisfactory service when the Fire Commissioner found
him guilty of engaging in the questionable activities for a
fireman of supplying for a fee duplicate badges to policemen
and firemen, selling fire extinguishers, and exhibiting porno-
graphic films at firehouses, In view of the serious nature
of the charges, the permissible fine would perhaps be in-
adequate, but the remaining option of dismissal available
to the Commissioner is evidently disproportionate to the
offense. Accordingly, with the wider discretion available to
it, the Appellate Division modified the penalty by reducing
Bovino's dismissal to suspension for six months,

FROM THE DETERMINATION of the Appellate Divi-
sion, the Fire Commissioner appealed to the Court of Ap-
peals. In that Court, Judge Francis Bergan, writing for a
majority of the Court, reaffirmed the authority of the
Court to deal with the measure of discipline imposable upon
@ civil service employee free of the restriction placed upon
administrative agencies. Judge Bergan cited as authority for
the Court’s power its decisions in the cases of Bell vy. Water-
front Commission, Donohue vy. New York State Police and
‘Walker vy. Murphy.

IN THE BELL case, the Court of Appeals reversed the re-
vocation of a longshoreman’s registration for fabrication of
subversive activities and directed its immediate restoration.

IN THE DONOHUE case, the Court annulled the dis-
missal of a State Trooper with nine years of concededly
exemplary services who had been found guilty of dis-
obeying an order which would have required him to violate
a confidence of his colleagues, and remanded the matter to
the New York State Police with instructions to proceed in
accordance with a dissenting opinion in the Appellate Divi-
sion by Mr, Justice J. Clarence Herlihy, Justice Herlihy ruled
that minimal punishment, if any, was indicated.

IN THE WALKER case, the Court of Appeals found no
ground to disturb the punishment of dismissal of a patrol-
man of the New York City Police Department who had been
found guilty of accepting gratuities for giving special police
protection to certain real estate interests,

EXERCISING THE unrestricted authority to determine
an appropriate penalty irrespective of the statutory restric-
tion upon the exercise of such authority by the Fire Com-
missioner, the majority decision of the Court of Appeals
modified the six months’ suspension of Boyino by increasing
it to a two year period.

JUDGE MATTHEW J. Jasen wrote a dissenting opinion
concurred in by Judges John T. Scileppi and Charles B-
Breitel in which he urged that the Civil Practice Law and
Rules should not be interpreted as granting greater pow!
to the Court to determine the measure of punishment than
given by the Administrative Code to the Fire Cummissionet
Judge Jasen reasoned that the Court’s only correct function
proportionate as to shock one’s sense of fairness. As the les
islators intended that for serious misdeeds dismissal must

follow, Judge Jason urged that
povino’s discharge should be con-
girmed, Yet so long as Civil Serv-
ice legislation woes not afford the
commissioner a broad enough
scope to fit punishment in better
proportion to the infraction, %
seems that the construction of its
power adopted by the Court's ma-
jority is better tailored to do jus-
tice.

THE

The need to cover the high cost of specialist care is
greater today than ever before.

Nevertheless, H.I.P. is still the only plan in this area
providing fully paid specialist services—in the office, hos-
pital and home.

WHAT H.LP. DOES

H.LP.’s Medical Groups provide care and consulta-
tions by qualified specialists in fourteen basic specialties
-in and out of the hospital.

There are no specialist charges... no limit on visits
... no deductibles... no claim forms.

When needed in difficult cases, H:I.P. brings you the
services of specially qualified specialists and surgical
teams—also without cost to you!

AND THE OTHERS?

Compare H.I.P.’s broad coverage with the specialist
coverage given by the other plans available to City em-
ployee families,

We repeat...

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER,

CSEA Protest's Ethnic
Survey Volunteer Lack

ALBANY—Numerous complaints and inquiries from Civil
Service Employees Assn. members of various ethnic groups

have been received at CSEA
cerning the distribution of an
the Civil Service Commission to
applicants for clerical and sten-
ographic positions with the State
government.

Dr. Theodore C, Wenzl, said the
questionnaire nas created confu-
sion because tt does not contain a
statement telling the applicant
that he or she ts not required to
fill out the form in order to take
the examination,

Dr, Wenzl hag asked Mrs. Ersa
H. Poston, president of the Civil
Service Commission, to stop using
the form until {t is reprinted with
information indicating that en

Pension Report

BY LOUIS BUSSELL

Governor Rockefeller in his
1968-1969 budget message empha-
sized the fact that the State was
finding M& increasingly difficult
to compete for top flight person-
nel.

We respectfully suggest that in
® major measure the difficult
Posttiton that the State finds it-
self in, ts attributable to an un-
favorable comparison of retire-
ment benefits offered by it, and
those avatlable in other Civil
service employments. Obviously,
the applicant would be more {m-
pressed with a 55 percent re-
tirement benefit after 25 years of
service computed on the best sal-
ary year offered by New York City
for instance, than a 50 percent
benefit after 30 years of service
computed on the average of the
last or best continuous five sal-
ary years.

Although the State has been
uniquely successful in developing
the asset value of the Retirement
System and the System is reputed
to be the strongest in the coun-
try, nevertheless, it has ill served
the best interests of the State and
its employees. Obviously, the pur-
pose of a Retirement System 1s
retirements, the natural by-prod-
ucts of which rewards for services
rendered, infusion of new vitality
into the work force, and creation
of attractive working conditions by
providing promotional opportunt-
ties.

Attention is directed to the fact
that but 30 percent—36 percent
of anticipated retirements have
taken place according to the 46th
Annual Report of the System, On
the other hand, because of gen-
erously improved and superior
benefits, New York City has ex-
perienced an unprecedented in-
crase of 160 percent retirements.

Tt 1s most suggested that the
60 called 1/60th Retirement Law—
50 percent benefit after 30 years
—1s an obsolete standard, irrele-
vant to the times and unworthy
of the Empire State.

We submit that the relevant
standard 1s a 50 percent benefit
after 20 years of service computed
on an average of the best three
salary years, recognized as valid
by approval of the Retirement
Law applicable to Legislators, Leg-
islative employees and others and
by approval of the enabling leg-
islation relating to the New York
City Sanitation and Transit em-
Ployees.

(Note; Readers are advised to
make their feelings known to the
Governor.)

headquarters in Albany con-
ethnic survey questionnaire by

applicant may voluntarily fill out
the form but need not do so in
order to qualify for the examina-
tion.

CSEA's objection 1s based solely
on the fact that applicants have
not been inrormed of the volun-
tary nature of the questionnaire,”
said Wenzl. “There 1s no question
in the Assoctation’s mind but
that every effort should be made
toward the improvement of job
opportunities for disadvantaged
groups.

“We do, however, object stren-
uously that the form was sent out
without consulting first with

CSEA, the recognized bargaining
agent for State employees,”
jose chief concluded.

(Continaed from Page 3)
Board of Education,

Carol N. Soper, unit president
and chief negotiator for the CSEA
group, sald the pact provides wage
inereases of eight percent for
clerical workers, nine percent for
bus drivers, ten to 12 percent for
cafeteria workers, ten percent for
mechanics and 13 to 20 percent
for custodians.

Increases in benefits included,
she said, two days of personal
leave; one day a month sick leave
cumulative to 150 days; job se-
curity for all workers in the
competitive class; seniority provi-
sions governing promotions, and
four weeks of vacation after 20
years of service.

Assisting her in negotiating the
contract were Nellie Swenson,
Grace Clark, Richard Peterson
and Claire Reigel, members, and
CSEA field representatives John
J, Ray and Louis T. Shaw.

Dr. Charles E, Hall, president,
and Superintendent Peter P, King
represented the school board.

Mrs. Soper commented:

“The course of negotiations was
never easy, We had a difficult
time gaining this package, But
now that i ts all over, we do
want to commend Dr. Hall and
Mr. King for thelr commitment to
the Taylor Law. Our district was
the first in the area to recognize a
bargaining agent, and to begin
negotiations. Except for the usual
give and take of formal bargain-
ing, the law was implemented
without any difficulty.”

Gdula Urges Prompt
Action On Grievances

BUFFALO — Department
heads should act promptly on
worker grievances, a Civil Ser-
vice Employees Assn. staffer
declared here recently at a hear-
ing of the Joint Legislative Com-
mittee on Civil Service Law and
Administration.

Henry J. Gdula, the CSEA reg-
ional field representtalve in West-
ern New York, said department
heads “enforce the letter of the
law” on time limits for employees
to submit complatits.

“But department heads and di-
rectors,” Gdula said, “often ex-
ceed the 30-day limit in process-
ing grievances,”

He also told the committee that
the Legislature should “expand
the Civil Service merit system”
so that all employees, including
thousands now classed as non-
competitive, are covered by the
Civil Service Law.

“Laborers, hospital workers and
others need and deserve perman-
ent status and job security,”
Gdula said.

He recounted CSEA achieve-
ments for public employees, list-
ing the Feld-Hamilton Law, a non-
contributory health insurance
plan, social security and a retire-
ment allowance, non-contributory
retirement, vested rights, retire-
ment at age 55, and establish-
ment of grievance procedures.

Gdula noted that since adop-
tion of the Taylor Law the CSEA
has been recognized as the bar-
gaining agent for 124,000 state
employees and in 300 other politic-
al subdivisions in the State, in-
cluding 47 counties.

George L. Fassel, vice-president
of the West Seneca State Hospital
CSEA chapter, and other chapter
members, also attended the hear-
ing.

Plans Underway To Implement
Dues Reduction For Retired
And Part-Time Employees

ALBANY—Plans are under way to implement a change In
the bylaws of the Civil Service Employes Assn. which would

pay scales are inequitable.
© A joint committee, in-
cluding CSEA representation

(From Leader Correspondent)
OSWEGO—A “near strike” situation among non-teaching |
employees of the Oswego Enlarged School District was]

reduce the dues for part-time and retired employees of the
State and Its local governments.
The change, which will affect

solved recently “due to the personal, consistent efforts of
the State Public Employment Relations Board staff mediator

and concillator,” a Civil Service
Employees Assn. official said.

Efforts of James Sharp, the
PERB mediator, convinced the
Oswego school board to accept
the final proposal of the CSEA
unit which represents all non-
teaching employees of the school
district as bargaining agent.

“Negotiations with this school
district had deteriorated to the
point where I can't believe we
would have been held liable had
@ strike occurred,” said John J.
Ray, CSEA field representative.
“We tried everything and couldn't
get them moving. Sharp's persist-
ence pulled this one out.”

Ray, who headed the CSEA bar- }
gaining team, said the bargaining
unit had been negotiating with
the school board since the mid-
dle of May, meeting about twice
@ week with the school officials.

The district, whose residents do
not vote on a budget, Ray ex-
plained, was within $19,000 of its
constitutional tax limit, and had
to negotiate and meet the wage
demands of 350 employees as well
as paying regular operating costs.

A tax increase for the fiscal
year beinning July 1 was im-
Possible, Ray said, but the board
was willing to cut back on other
budget items to meet increased
wage demands as the only solution,

In the meantime, he said, the
district's teachers had gone to
“fact-finding” under the Taylor
Law. Robert H. Basso, a Syracuse
attorney named fact-finder, pre-
sented a report which was ac-
cepted by the teachers, but not
by the board, A counter proposal
from the board later was disre-
garded by the teachers, Ray ex-
plained. The board also was nego-
tiating with a school administra-
tors unit.

At this point, Ray sald, the]

CSEA negotiators—Eileen Batche-

figured the best strategy would
be to “get as much money as we
could this year, settle and walt
for next year" because with school
opening the follwing week, “the
teacher situation was critical.”

He added: “While we certainly
wish them (the teachers) to get
the best possible package, we did
not want this to happen at the
expense of the non-teaching em-
ployees.””

The CSEA proposal, accepted by
the school board within three
days, grants wage increases of
between $250 and $500, an im-
proved vacation schedule, a new
re-classification procedure to al-
leviate the plight of employees
who are continuously performing
“out-of-title’ work, and an
agreement by the board to move
from the five percent contribu-
tory plan to the 1/60th non-
contributory retirement plan, Ray
said.

The package was approved, 34
to 6, by employees at a ratifica-
tion meeting. It covers 72 non-
teaching workers.

Ray told the workers at the
ratifying meeting that the pack-
age ‘is nowhere near what we
wanted to end up for you, but we
honestly think it is the best we
can do under extremely difficult
and probably the worst possible
circumstances.”

Babylon CSEA Unit
Elects New Officers

BABYLON — The Babylon
Village unit of the Civil Ser-
vice Employees Assn., recently
elected officers for the com-
ing year,

‘They are: A. J. Cherry, presi-
dent; Robert Keller, first vice-
president; William Reinhouts,
second vice-president; George
Duryee, secretary and James Mil-
ler, treasurer,

re-organization of this unit.

thousands of present and former
employees, was approved by CSEA
delegates at the annual meeting
last September.

The amendment requires that
“Members must submit proof of
qualification for special dues pri-
vileges pursuant to this provision
satisfactory to the Board of Di-
rectors of the Association.”

In essence, the provision will
allow reduced dues for qualified
retired members and for part-
time employees who work on an
average of less than four hours
per day or 20 hours a week. The
reduction constitutes one-half the
regular dues, 50 cents biweekly. If
dues are paid directly rather than
by payroll deduction, they will be
$13 a yeat due each Oct. 1 or semi-
annually, $6.50 on Oct, 1 and the
remaining $6.50 on the following
April 1.

Details on how to apply for the
lower dues will appear in next
week's Leader, CSEA officials said.

Prior to the change, retired
members were eligible for asso-
clate membership at $1 a year,
which dia not entitle them to hold
office and yote, or regular mem-
bership at the full dues rate.

Under the new plan, associate
membership 1s still available. Reg-

and with the approval of his de-
partment head, may take six col-
lege credit hours per semester.
After successful completion of the
approved course, the tuition will

chapter, who headed the negotia-
tions, had high praise for the
contract and commended the
county for bargaining in good

faith.
