Here's How It Stands Now
ALBANY, Jan. 25 — A fourth

Seminary. He was born in Ryan,
Towa, 52 years ago. He lives with

Administration to task, and spon-
sored bills providing increases.
Legislators Sympathetic
None of these measures is like-
ly to pass. The bills bearing Ad-
ministration approval will be the
ones which the Legislature will
enact. Many legislators are, how-
ever, deeply sympathetic with the
wage requirements of the emplo-
yees, ad have expressed them-
selves publicly as willing to sup-
port the State's workers.
One reasoned view of the ulti-
mate situation ts that these ends
are possible as a result of the
State's wage study and negotia-
| tions: present salary inequities
to be corrected; initiation of a
ew pay pian with a modernized
series of grades; on increase on top
of the corrected inequities; a sin-
gle salary structure, not broken
up into base pay and bonus. The
big unanswered question in this
arrangement jf it should prevail,
is; “How much?"
mployees Determined
I nthe field, the pay situation
finds the employees more deter-
mined and more militant than
ever before. Meetings dealing with
the wage problem are heavily at-
tended. Employees are expressing
willingness to push their cam-
palgn with « fervor rarely achi-
¢eved before, They are mobilizing
extensive local opinion in their
favor — and this opinion Is fre-
quently (as in the case of Brent
wood, reported elsewhere in this
issue) local official and Republican
opinion. This activity may compel
the administration to re-assess
any feeling it may have about in-
stituting a “small” pay increase.
The mood of the employees is
such that they would be likely to
reject anything that appeared to
them Inadequate or unfair.
Moreover, 1954 ie a political
year. Employee _ representatives
are not losing sight of this fact as|
they work locally for support of
their objectives. They are using
another interesting argument in
areas where State employees con-
stitute substantial proportion of
the population. The argument
goes: The community's prosper-
ity depends o nthe State emplo~
yee. The kind of schools and other
services offered by the community
depends on the taxes which State
employees can afford to pay. It
therefore behooves these commun-
itles to get behind the employees
in their drive for better pay,
Governor eDwey has accepted
an invitation to address the an
nual meeting of the Civil Service
Employees Association on Februa-
ry 24 The surmise ts being drown
that the Goveror would hardly
wish to face a hostile audience
stil lin the midst of a waeg strug-
gle; and that he will use theoc-
casion to report a:forward move-
ment in matters of interest to the
employees. The most important
| single item of interest to then is
saalry,

of the Commission, has withdrawn

February 1, She will now continue
as a hold-over until the appoint~
ment of a successor by the Gov-
ernor.
Taylor's Pay May Rise
Mr. Taylor's term begins official-
ly as of February 1. He has al-
ready been in contact with the
Commission, and attended one
meeting. His term of office runs
until February 1, 1959. Designated
Commission president by the Goy-
ernor, Mr, Taylor will probably be
the recipient of a higher salary
than the position now pays. The
Administration plans to introduce
a bill raising Mr. Taylor's basic
pay to $18,490 a year. There will
also be, presumably, the same
$3,000 expense “lulu” enjoyed by
his predecessor.
Judge Conway's salary as Com-
mission president was $16,000. In
his new post on the Anti-Discri-
mination Commission, he will earn
& base of $13,667. However, he

Commissioner has had before. Un-
der a new law passed by the 1953
Legislature, the Commission pre-
sident «comes the real “boss” of
the Commission, handling admin-
istrative matters which were for-
merly the province of the entire
Commission. The idea behind this
is to streamline and make more |
efficient the Commission's opera-
tions. Reorganization of the Com-
mission had been a subject to
bitter debate, with the Governor
originally defeated in a plan
which some said would have made
the administrative director a civil
service “czar.”
Politieal Conjecture
The question of Mr. Taylor's
future has been the subject of
to the post. The form of conjecture
runs along these lines: Under the

Commission, However, he is now
64 years old, and must have con-
sidered this possibility when h@
accepted the appointment.

CSEA Legislative Program Of 42 Measures
ALBANY, Jan. 25 — The legis-
lative program of the Civil Ser-
vice Employees Association was re-
eased this week. Many of its bills
have already been introduced.
The listing below should be
read with the following code sym-
is:
(D) Drafted by the Association.
(5) Sponsored by the Associa-
tion and drafted in cooperation
with others.
(A) Approved after conference
with the administration and sup-
Ported by the Association,
(E) Endorsed and supported by
the Association.
Each bill is summarized. Above
the summary, there appears the
following information: (1) name
of the introducer, in Senate and
Assembly; (2) the bill’s introduc-
tory number; (3) its print num-
ber; (4) the name of the com-
mittee in which the bill is being
considered. In some cases, readers
will note that part or all of this
Information is missing. This means
that the bill has not yet been in-
troduced, or does not yet have a
number, or has not yet gone to a
committee.
Tt is likely that there will be ad-
ditions to this CSEA program as
the legislative session develops.
1, SALARY INCREASE AND
FREEZE-IN
As this report was being pre-
pared, CSEA representatives were
in process of negotiating with the
administration on salary. It has
been stated that the administra-
tion, after an extensive wage sur-
vey, would come up with single
wage schedules, thus abandoning
the need for a “cost-of-living
bonus.” The Association, which is
seeking both these objectives, is
awaiting the results of its nego-
tiations before committing itself
finally to specific legislation.

reation of the position of personnel director of NYC
assured, and it appears likely that the majority re-
port of the Mayor’s Committee on Management Survey
will be followed. That recommended the position be ere-
ated in the Civil Service Commission, with the personnel
director taking command of the administrative tasks, un-
der the Commission, but without loss to the Commission of
any powers, and no change from the present bi-partisan
system. Signers of the report included Budget Director
‘Abraham D. Beame and Charles E. Preusse. Mr. Preusse
has since been appointed first assistant to City Adminis-
trator Luther Gulick, who was chairman of the commit-
bee.
{ CIVIL
D7 Duane Street,
Employee Groups Consulted
The Commission has a full job to do im its quasi-
Judicial, rule-making, and examining capacity, and could
use a personne! director to take over administrative tasks.
Mayor Wagner himself is reported inclined toward this
idea, too, and the Commission itself would offer no objec-
tion to getting more help where help is so much needed.
‘At a meeting this week Joseph O'Grady, the Mayor's top
man on labor, is holding a meeting at which employee
groups will be heard. As most of these, too, have already
favored the majority recommendation of the Gulick eom-
mittee, other plans appear to have less likelihood ef suc-
weeding.
More important than the question of which plan is | up
finally selected, will be the calibre of the appointee.
Birange, hardly any mention is ever made of that,
U.S. Should Stop Playing
Hat Trick With Jobs
ne of the worst anomalies in civil service are the 750,-
000 U. S. employees who have only “indefinite”
wtanding. The Civil Service Commission should procure
permanent status to those who hold permanent jobs. It is
senseless to have the status of an employee differ from
the status of his job.
The U. S. Government is the only public employer that
has set up this false and demoralizing distinction.
The Sensible Criterion
The number of permanent employees must be de-
termined by the extent of line services government decides
to render, and not by some arbitrary figure based on some
arbitrary date, such as the September, 1950 level of per-
manent employees, as limited by the Whitten Amendment.
The Commission, in considering permanency for 150,-
BOO who could be benefited on that chronological basis,
phows concern for the problem, Improvement for even 20
per cent of the “indefinites” is welcome, but the final
solution should depend on the stability of the job itself,
and not on some date picked out of a hat.

Question,

ILL THE DECISION in the
. employee's case, upholding
the President's power to reclassify
Jobs, (1) reduce job protection for
any, if so, whom; (2) affect many;
(3) injure veteran preference; (4)
increase dismissals? E.P.L.
ANSWER — (1) Yes, The U. 5.
Civil Service Commission will have
to amend its reduction-in-force
procedures, so that permanent em-
Ployees changed from competitive
to Schedule A or C jobs won't have
competitive retention rights, but
will compete for retention with
other employees in their same new
category; (2) percentagewise, no;
(3) no, the Veteran Preference
‘Law applies to all in the classified
service; (4) hardly, for there
weren't many dismissals even be-
fore the decision, and loss of re-
moval protection is not tanta-
mount to dismissal. While re-
moval protection under the Lloyd-
LaFollette Act of 1912, no longer
is carried over in the transfer to
A or C, about 40 per cent of the
employees in jobs in those two
schedules are veterans, and pro-
tected by the Veteran Preference
Law. Schedule A consists mostly
of employees in attorney jobs.
IN THE surface line operator
exam NYC rejected 130 out of
1,569, a larger percentage than
ever before. Why? R.EJ.

other employment, school, iliness
or other physical or personal dis-
ability. The reason must be stated

AT LEAST one voice has been raised in the U. S. Senate against
frouping all employees separated from Federal jobs under the Beo-

President Eisenhower to task for lumping 2,200 separated employees

Neely, is & “verbal monstrosity.” President Eisenhower has specifically

SENATOR FRANK CARLSON, chairman of the Post Office and
Civil Service Committee, has bills ready for a raise for both classified
and postal employees, but what the terms are, he isn’t saying. Al
he's waiting for is a green light from the Eisenhower Administration,
to drop the bills in the hopper. Also, he's given his word that his
committee will hold hearings on Federal pay. Last year there were
no such hearings,
A BILL INTRODUCED by Senator Carlson provides for time-and-

How Pension
PENSIONERS of public
make sure to capitalize in full on
the limited U. 5S. income tax
exemption offered them, In their
return for 1953, due by March 15,
1954, they should obtain any such
benefit to which they're entitled.
Any who overlooked the oppor-
tunity in past years may file
amended returns, to receive full
credit.
‘The exemption t open to pen-
sioners of contributory retirement
systems, public or private. The
amount reported as income on
page 2 of the 1040 form, from the
time retirement starts, is 3 per
cent of what the employee in-
vested. The total amount of the
retirement checks for the year is
disregarded for income-determin-
ing purposes. When the difference

then on the pension income no longer is 3 per cent of cost but is the

Explanation by Van Name
In his booklet on “Pension Benefits for TWU
Van Name, former secretary, NYC Employees Retirement System, ex-
plains the operation thus:
1, Set down 3 per cent of your total contributions without ime
terest (the certified resolution which you receive from the Board
of Estimate at retirement will give you this figure).
2. Add this to your fross income on the tax blank for the num-
ber of years shown,
3. The excess of the whole retirement amount over this figure
is exempt.
4. Divide the amount of total contributions without interest ty
this excess,
5. The answer gives you the years in which you are entitled te
exemption,
6. The remaining amount indicates the reduced exemption im
the succeeding and final year,

State Bonus
Freeze-in
Introduced
ALBANY, Jan. 25 — A bill re-
quiring that the present bonuses
of State employees become part of
base pay has been introduced by
Senator Halpern and Assembly-
man Preller, Senator Halpern, who
has in previous ns sponsored
bonus-freeze legislation, said:
It is ridiculous to put in two
separate pieces of y
year. Pay won't go bi
are hopeful that satisfactory pay
adjustments will bring the pay
acale up-to-date during the cur-
Tent session,
“In the meantime, New York
City has frozen its cost-of-living
bonuses, The State should not be
behind.”
The Halpern-Preller measure
May be academic, however, if
present salary negotiations be-
tween the administration and the
Civil Service Employees Associa-
tion result in new all-inclusive
achedules, Best available informa-
tion is to the effect that the pres-
ent State wage study gives results
in terms of a single salary — not
one divided into base pay and
nus.
Preeze-in of the bonus econsti-
tutes a major plank of the CSEA
in its negotiations; it is also seek-
img ® 12 percent over-all pay in-
erease.

Petitioner was rejected by the

HORSE BETS AND LOTTERY
BACKED FOR PAY RISE
Sanitationmen’s Local 111-A,
AFL, has urged legalization of off-
track betting and a lottery run
by NYC, to raise new revenues
and alleviate the City’s financial
difficulties. Salary increases, and
better service to the public, could
be accomplished by the added in-
come, the local said.
“The civil service employee is
the first to feel the pinch when
the City cannot make ends meet,”
said Eugene Calamari, president
of the local.
The resolution was adopted at
a “top turnout" meeting.

ALBANY, Jan 25 — Represent-
atives of The Civil Service Em-
Ployees Association have conferred
with J. Earl Kelly, the Director
@f the State Classification and
Compensation Division, concern-
ing proposed changes in civil ser-
vice qualifications for employees
fm the custodial service of the Cor-
rection Department.
Director Kelly and his assistant
William Riley represented the ad-
ministration. Charles E, Lamb of
Bing Sing Prison, John Mullaney,
Auburn Prison, Jack Solod, Wood-
bourne Prison, John J. Kelly Jr.,
assistant counsel, and William F.
Beeenoel spoke for the Assoc-
Want Standards Maintained
Employee representatives urged |
that the present standards as to|
teainthg, experience and physical!
| fitness be maintained, on the
grounds that the work of the cus-
| todial force is of first importance
in carrying out the State's pro-
Sressive program of dealing with
the custody and rehabilitation of
delinquents. They declared that
the prison service had reached a
high degree of excellence by rea-
son of the sound standards in ef-
fect for some time, and that it
should not be undermined by re-
ducing such standards because of
difficulty of recruitment of per-
sonnel,
Association representatives as-
serted that there was serious need
for adoption of « 40-hour week
without reduction in pay, and es-
tablishment of an optional 25-year
retirement, and that such im-
provement in working conditions
would overcome any lack of appli-
cants for the prison service.

Equal Treatment
Means Equal Treatment
hile negotiators for New York State are considering
the pros and cons of a salary raise, they might give
eareful attention again to the obviously-just plea of at-
tendants in criminal hospitals for equal treatment. Equal
treatment means placing their pay on a level with others
in State service — like the prison guards — who do work
equally arduous, equally hazardous, and equally hard on
body and mind. Some of the gruesome stories coming out
of Matteawan and Dannemora would indicate that the
workers in these institutions suffer a double jeopardy —
from those who are mentally and emotionally disturbed
— and who are at the same time criminals; and who fre-
quently do unpredictable, quixotic and dangerous things.
And while this inequity is being corrected, another
look ought to be taken at the principle of equal pay for
equal work for women — a principle in which the State

professes to believe. In the case of women workers who
guard women prisoners in the State institutions at West-
field and Albion this principle hasn’t been honored. Pay |
adjustments for these women, bringing them up to the|
wage scales prevailing for men doing the same kind of |
work, ought to be made ective now,
