CSEA ROLLS AHEAD
ON JUNE 16 STRIKE

Anti-Labor’ Taylor Law
Revision Passes Solons,

_GEA To Continue Fight

ALBANY—Despite last ditch efforts by the Civil Service Employees Assn., the State
Legislature has passed and sent to Governor Rockefeller an amendment to the State’s Tay-
lor Law that was described as a “grave threat to the collective bargaining process in the

public sector.”

In short, the bill was de-
scribed as “one of the most
anti-labor bills ever passed

through the halls of the New
York State Legislature.”

As The Leader was going to
press, CSEA officials vowed a
24-hour-a-day fight before the
Governor in an effort to con-
vince him of the serious hazards
of enacting the measure—Assem-
bly 7989-A.

CSEA charged that “this bill
would remove numerous employ-
ees from the protection of the
Taylor Law at the whim of ad-
ministrators, as well as denying
numerous employees membership
in the collective bargaining or-
ganization.”

‘The legislation would exclude
any employees designated as
either management or confiden-
tial from belonging to or holding
office in any employee organiza-
tion which is or seeks to become
a certified or recognized repre-
sentative of public employees.
CSEA also attacked the provi-
sion which would exclude vaca-
tlon credits and overtime in

Chapter Heads Called To
Albany For Instructions

ALBANY—A Statewide strike by members of the Civil
Service Employees Assn., scheduled for June 16, will move
a big step toward reality this week when presidents of State
CSEA chapters meet here June 3 for specific instructions

on putting the job walkout into
effect.

‘The session was called by CSEA
president Theodore C. Wenzl
who said in a communique to
chapter heads that “we have no
other choice . I must tell
you now that the State has no
intention of stopping (firings)
at 8,500 jobs.”

Wenzl urged CSEA leaders to
carry their plight to the public
by alerting people to the fact
that deep budget cuts not only
affect State payrolls but im-
portant community programs as
well, such as one that would
have provided 3,600 youtas with
summer employment.

“No one ts safe,” said Wenzl.

Action Memorandum

In the meantime, the follow-
ing memorandum was sent by
Wenzl to all chapter presidents
as a pre-briefing. It reads:

The motion, adopted by our
Board of Directors on May 18,
1971, which was sent to you,
calls for @ strike of all CSEA
members employed by the State,
The time of the strike has been
set for 11:59 p.m. on June 16,
1971, unless 8,250 employees who
have been or will be laid off are
returned to their jobs through
legal steps taken by CSEA or
through the appropriation of
funds in the supplemental bud-
get or other action.

What I must tell you now ts
that the State has no intention
of stopping at 8,250 jobs. Reli-

ALBANY—Rules for nominations of officers of
the Civil Service Employees Assn., which appeared
in a bulletin sent out by CSEA Headquarters to all
chapter presidents, contained an error under the
heading of “General Information.”

A change in the CSEA by-laws requires that can-
didates’ names be selected in a drawing to determine
the order of placement of the names on the ballot. The
printed rules incorrectly stated that the listing of can-
didates on the ballot would be in alphabetical order.

CSEA Wins 2 Step
Upgrading For Asst.
Comp. Examinees

ALBANY —The Civil Ser-
vice Employees Assn. has
won a reallocation from
grade 8 to grade 10 for as-
sistant workmen's compensation
examiners employed by the
Workmen's Compensation Board,
Dept. of Labor.

A CSEA spokesman said that
CSEA had first submitted an
application for the reallocation
to Cornelius Hanrahan, State
director of classification and
compensation, supporting the re-
quest with “lists of increased
work loads, newly-assumed duties
and responsibilities, and exam-
ples of comparable State titles
with higher salary grades.”

The first request was “turned
down by Hanrahan based on two
so-called reviews of the position
and on reports that duties of the
assistant examiner had not
greatly increased,” he said.

“The disparity between the
information gathered in these
‘reviews’ and the work that is
actually being done by these
people, makes it hard to believe
that any reviews were actually
conducted.

“We immediately appealed the
director’s determination and now
have received notice from the
Department of Civil Service that
the Civil Service Commission has
reallocated the position based on
our appeal.”

Final approval by the Director
of the Budget is expected short-
jy, the spokesman said.

One Layoff Unit
At Wards Island

At Leader presstime it was
learned that State employees at
all facilities on Wards Island are
in one layoff unit, according to
a decision handed down by the
State Supreme Court. Under this
decision, all layoffs previously
scheduled at the facilities on
Wards Island are invalid; they
must now be rewritten.

The suit was brought by Wards
Island employees who said the
original list of layoffs was un-
fair, (See Leader picture story,

FROM THE

By EDWARD J. KIERNAN
Pres., N.Y.C, Patrolmen's Benevolent Assn.

Plan Of Action Needed

EIGHT MONTHS ago, in testimony before the Senate
Internal Security Subcommittee, I said that attacks on
policemen were part of a national conspiracy to undermine
our society. I showed the Committee nationally distributed
literature filled with stories and cartoons that advocated
the murder of policemen, and I said that strong action was
needed to stop the spread of this cancer.

IT GIVES ME no satisfaction to say that the events of
the past ten days prove that I was right. The revolutionary
group that machine-gunned two policemen on Riverside
Drive boasted about their exploit to a local radio station and
to The New York Times. Two days later, the men who threw
@ bucket of lye in the face of a bus inspector did so because
they thought he was a policeman, They left a note in which
they stated their feelings about policemen in no uncertain
terms.

I HAVE SAID time and again that an attack on a police-
man is an attack on the community and all its citizens. Now.
the revolutionaries are openly admitting that their goal 1
the destruction of our system of government. The note they
sent to The Times promises that “The armed goons of this
racist government will again meet the guns of oppressed
people.” These people are brazenly telling us what they in-
tend to do—and they have proved that they can do it.

THE TIME has come when every public official, every-
one in a position of civic power or influence, must accept
personal, individual responsibility for either the salvation
of our community or its destruction. It’s too late for any more
words; the community is crying out for action, and we needs
it right now.

HERE ARE the actions I propose.

Unlocking The Security Question

“SECURITY” IS becoming one of the most critical areas
in both industry and government,

THIS IS NOT exactly a new area for civil servants. But
many of the techniques for handling these problems are new
—so new that most management

seminars for both civil servants
and industry include this subject
for study,

TO DISSEMINATE the con-
stantly growing body of knowl-
edge in this area, a new news-
letter has just been published
to keep management in both
government and industry in-
formed on practically dally de-

velopments.

APPROPRIATELY NAMED
“Protection Management,” the
new newsletter is being gobbled
up by both government and in-
dustry as a new weapon for
management in the security
field.

By CSEA Statewide Membership Group Life Insurance
At Hudson River Hospital Dinner

(From Leader Correspondent)

CLINTONDALE—‘“We must
stick together in unity. One
year from today we will cele-
brate because we will have
overcome.”

‘With these words Dr. Theo-
dore Wenzl, State Civil Service
Employees Assn. president, call-
ed upon 300 employees to join
together to protect jobs of fel-
low employees. Wenzl was guest
speaker at the annual dinner
meeting of the Hudson River
State Hospital CSEA chapter at
the Oddo House.

Continued Wenzl: “This 1s no
occasion for fun and joy. We
must continue to fight against
this inhumanity. We are on the
side of right, 100 percent, and
I will go to jail if necessary.
Come June 16 the Governor and
the taxpayers will learn that
we are right and will stand
up for what we believe.”

Other speakers included rep-
resentatives of Hudson River,
Harlem Valley State Hospital,
the field representatives’ staff
and the president of the South-
ern Conference, CSEA.

Mrs. Nellie Davis, HRSH unit
president, addressed the group
and said, “This is a wake...
it is not enough to attend a
dinner and have fun in this, our
troubled time.”

Arthur Marx, HRSH super-
visor who served as toastmaster,
presented a floral gift to Cath-
erine Lewis, HRSH Psychiatric
Aide of the Year, and then turn-
ed to the current layoff situ-
ation and said, “When the State

pital’s annual dinner were, from left, Mrs. Anna Bes-
sette, Mental Hygiene representative from the South-

the Hudson River State Hospital chapter, and Nicholas
Puzziferri, Southern Conference president.

$6,000 a year, it is a lie that it
will save money for tlie taxpay-
ers of New York State. It is the
$20,000 and $25,000 a year cate-
gory that needs study. Anything
that we have to do to save our
people, we will do.”

Nicholas Puzziferri, president
of the Southern New York Con-
ference, said: “How about the
poor patients that are being ship-
ped around like animals? How
can relatives get to see them
when they are transferred to

® far-off institution? None of

us like a strike, but I think the
strike is the only way we can
get the State to listen. It is time
for us to put on our armor.
Within one month, we will have
back on the job all of those who
have been fired.”

Flaumenbaum Condemns Patient
Transfers From State Hospitals;
Calls For Unity In Strike Action

(From Leader Correspondent)

BINGHAMTON—The first vice-president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., Irving
Flaumenbaum, has told a general membership meeting of the Binghamton State Hospital
chapter, CSEA, that Governor Nelson Rockefeller and others responsible for the drafting
and passage of the State’s $7.7-billion dollar austerity budget would be “Nothing less than

murderers” if one State hospi-
tal patient dies because of State-
mandated patient transfers.

Flamenbaum added that, as
he put it, “Some will die be-
cause of the extreme, severe
traumatic experlence of a move.”

Flaumenbaum said fatalities
might result because of the
sudden and enforced separation
of the patients who have for
many years been cared for by
the State hospital employees,
many of whom have taken the
patients into their homes, “The
deprivation of this kind of love
and consideration will exert,”
he said, “needless and senseless
feeling of desperation and anxt-
ety in those who may not be
able to bear the strain”

Speaking during the session at
the Fountain’s Pavillion in John-
son City, Flaumenbaum told the
@athering that if the State suc-
ceeds in firing 8,250 State em-
ployees under the austerity bud-
get, 20,000 more employees will

follow next year, “This,” he told

the audience, “is just a test.

You had better be prepared to
stand up and be counted to fight
for your jobs.”

Flaumenbaum

Irving Flaumenbawm as
he called for a strong
spirit of unity in the
planned strike action,
“You may be next!” he
declared,

warned, “You can’t sit back and
say ‘Well, Joe Jones 1s being
red and that's too bad, but I
don’t have anything to worry
about,’ because you're sadly mis-
taken. Your jobs could be next
and may very well be.”

“You think this 1s the end,
don't you?” Flaumenbaum ask-
ed. “You think that 8,250 jobs
4s where they're going to stop?
Well, you're sadly mistaken be-
cause the State is still $300-
million in debt and they've got
to make it up somewhere.”

Flaumenbaum said every ef-
fort 1s being made in Albany to
Prevent the firings, including

Layoffs To Get Preference
For Seasonal Park Johs —
1,000 Openings Available

The State Office of Parks and Recreation will begin fill-
ing about 1,000 seasonal staff positions in New York’s 11
park regions, giving first preference in hiring to interested
State employees who lost their jobs as a result of legislative

cuts in the State budget.

It was noted that the hiring
for the Summer employment in
State parks begins each year at
about this time. About 1,000 po-
sitions are available, carrying
wages ranging from $2.40 to
$3.91 an hour.

Persons interested in obtain-
ing employment at State parks
for the Summer should write to
the Personnel Office, Office of
Parks and Recreation, Building
2, State Campus, Albany, New
York 12226. “State employees
who were dismissed as a result

of the budget cutbacks and are
seeking Summer park jobs
should state in their letters of
application that they were re-
cently separated from service by
the State,” a spokesman indi-
cated.

The jobs to be filled include
those of lifeguard, radio dis-
patcher, park attendant, laborer,
maintenance man, maintenance
helper, highway equipment op-
erator, janitor, cleaner, bathing
facilities manager, staff nurse,
cashier, watchman and typist.

Flexible Hours Working

ALBANY—Reaction from the Motor Vehicle Dept. em-
ployees in Albany involved in an experimental flexible work-
hours study in the Albany area has been good, according to
Thomas McDonough, Motor Vehicle chapter president and

department representative on the
Board of Directors of the Civil
Service Employees Assn.

McDonough, who represented
his chapter in jointly develop-
ing plans for the work hours ex-
periment, said that the employ-
ees at the department's 130 On-
tarlo St. offices were pleased with
the arrangement,

The plan would allow employ-
ees to report to work any time

“This plan was drawn up,”
sald McDonough, “as an alter-
native to alleviating the terrible
traffic congestion in areas of
State employee concentration
during rush hours, It also allows
the employees to exercise their
own judgment and plan their
own schedules every working day.

Department officials are ex-
pected to study the results of
the experiment and determine
whether employees will go on
the new plan, McDonough sald.
If accepted, the plan may be
put into use for State employees
who will be working in the South

Eight titles that are typical of the sort of jobs filled in
the junior federal assistant series have been supplied by the re
US. Civil Service Commission in its current bulletin, An- @

nouncement No. 411.

statistical assistant, and tax ex-
aminer. Monthly pay, at GS-4
entrance, comes to $460.

Requirements point to having
completed two years of college
or business school courses. Those
who went to work immediately
after high school graduation are
offered the experience option:
“two years of responsible experi-
ence in administrative, technical
or clerical work (or a combina-
tion of these).”

In Assorted Agencies

Looking st location, the Fed-
eral Government advises that
agencies throughout the US.
constantly use the JFA Exam
to fill openings. Needs frequently
exist in social security offices,
tax offices, data processing cen-
ters, suprly depots, shipyards
and military bases, among
others.

In counting college credit, 30
semester hours or 720 classroom
hours equal one year. Study
could have been taken at a
junior or community college,
business school, technical insti-
tute or four-year college. As to
job experience, the bulletin
states: “Pertinent full or part-
time volunteer experience gained
in civic, community, service, wel-
fare or similar activities may
also be credited in determining
experience. Such experience must
demonstrate your ability to learn
and to apply detailed regulations
and procedures.” It was empha-
sized, however, that handling
certain tasks will not be credit-
ed; work as a typist, steno, dic-
tating machine transcriber, card
punch operator, phone operator
and sales clerk were the ex-
amples provided.

On the matter of training,
Uncle Sam offers “numerous

There Is Still Time

HERE is still a chance for the leadership of the Legis-

lature to change the reputation of the 1971 session
from one of “retrogressive and oppressive” to “responsive
and responsible.”

With a supplemental budget still to be considered and
approved, we earnestly urge the Governor, Senate Majority
Leader Earl W. Brydges and Assembly Speaker Perry
B. Duryea, Jr., to give absolute priority to restoring cuts
made in the Mental Hygiene Dept.

Here is a State agency that has the enormous respon-
sibility of taking care of those unfortunates unable to take
care of themselves. This means that at the very least, no
one currently on the payroll in this department should
be let go. The patients need them desperately.

It was pointless, also, to close down the Civil Defense
agency when so little was saved and their services so needed,
not just in time of war but for all sorts of local emergencies.

Personnel reduction in the Department of Motor Ve-
hicles also produced inconveniences, hardships and little
true savings.

We still insist that every one of the threatened firings,
as well as the ones that have already taken place, are not
and were not necessary and hurt the public as much as the
employees concerned. Attrition can definitely provide the
savings the State insists it must have.

A little homework by the State Administration can
save a lot of jobs; a little generosity in the supplemental
budget can do even more. This is the last chance for all
parties concerned to perform the job for which they were
elected—to serve the public, not political imagery.

introduced in Albany, which provide harsh mandatory sen-

for crimes of violence be raised to the point where no judge
1s permitted to administer a slap on the wrist and send a

revise those statutes that give more protection to the of-

NO MEMBER of government can escape the choice be-

fail to take the necessary action today.

SOCIAL dt, SECURITY

ee

Retirement Test

The basic purpose of Social
Security is to provide benefits
for workers and their families
when the worker's earnings
have been stopped or have been
substantially reduced as a result
of his retirement, disability or
death.

Since it is not reasonable to
presume that all workers retire
or suffer a significant reduction
in earnings upon attainment of
retirement age, Social Security
has a retirement test so we can
Pay benefits to those among the
aged who have suffered a loss
of earnings. Payment of full
benefits to all of the aged who
are still working would be very
costly and double the present so-
celal security taxes.

When you apply for retire-
ment or survivors insurance
benefits, your social security of-
fice will explain how any fu-
ture earnings you may have will
affect your benefits and when
and how to report your earn-
ings to the Social Security Ad-
ministration.

The explanation that follows
4s intended to give a general
idea of the conditions under
which benefits are paid to the
people who are still working.
If you earn $1,680 or less in a
year (as long as you are under
age 72), the general rule is
that $1 in benefits to you (and
your family’ will be withheld for
each $2 you earn between $1,680
and $2,880. In addition, $1 in
benefits will be withheld for
each $1 of earnings over $2,880.

Affected Benefits

Regardless of total earnings
in a year, benefits are payable
for any month in which you
neither earn wages of more than
$140 nor perform substantial
services in self-employment.

The decision as to whether
you are performing substantial
services in self-employment de-
pends on the time you devote
to your business, the kind of
services you perform, how your
services compare with those per-
formed in past years, and other
circumstances of your particu-
lar business.

Benefits are also payable for
all months when you are 72 or
older, regardless of the amount
of your earnings in months
after you reach 172.

Your earnings as a retired
worker may affect your own and
your dependents rights to bene-
fits. If you get benefits as a
dependent or survivor, your
earnings will affect only your
benefit and not those of other
members of the family.

Figuring Earnings

Earnings from work of any
kind must be counted, whether
or not the work 1s covered by
social security. Total wages (not
just take-home pay) and all net
earnings from self-employment
must be added together in fig-
uring your earnings for the year.
However, income from savings,
investments, pensions or insur-
ance does not affect your bene-
fits and should not be counted in
your earnings for this purpose.

In the calendar year in which
your benefits start, your earnings
for the entire year are counted
to determine the amount of
benefits that ean be paid.

Earnings after you reach 12

Civil Service
Law & You

By RICHARD GABA

Mr. Gaba is a member of the New York State Bar and chair-
man of the Labor Law Committee of the Nassau County Bar Assn.

Military Leave Of Absence

AS SUMMER approaches, employees begin planning for
vacations—seeking some brief escape from the rigors of the
workaday world. Some employees in making their plans must
take into consideration certain obligations to military re-
serve training camps, national guard, militia, and the like,

THE QUESTION often arises as to the relationship be-
tween vacation allowances and military obligations. This is
set forth in the New York State Military Law, which at-
tempts to cover all situations that could arise.

THE BASIC premise in the law seems to be that a per-
son who is engaged in “ordered military duty” receives a
leave of absence with pay. Section 242.2 states, “Every pub-
lic officer or employee shall be entitled to absent himself
and shall be deemed to have a leave of absence from his
duties or service as such public officer or employee while
engaged in the performance of ordered military duty and
while going to and returning from such duty.”

THE LAW DEFINES “ordered military duty” as any mil-
itary duty performed in the service of the State or of the
United States ... “pursuant to orders issued by competent
state or federal authority, without the consent of such public
officer or employee.” It continues, “Such duty, performed
for a period or periods not exceeding a total of thirty days
in any one calendar year, shall be deemed ‘ordered military
duty’ regardless of whether such orders are or may be issued
with the consent of such public officer or employee . . .”

AN EMPLOYEE who attends, for example, U.S. Army
Reserve Summer camp cannot be subjected directly or in-
directly to any loss or diminution of time service, increment,
vacation or holiday privileges, or any other right or privilege,
nor can he be prejudiced with reference to continuance in
office or employment, reappointment to office, re-employ-
ment, reinstatement, transfer or promotion. In addition,
the law provides for the employee to receive his regular
salary or other compensation while engaged in military
training ... not exceeding a total of thirty days in any one
calendar year and not exceeding thirty days in any one
continuous period of such absence. (Section 242.4 and 242.5).

IN PROVIDING leave of absence with pay, the law seems
quite clear in placing a limitation on the number of days
for which an employee may receive his regular salary as a
public officer or employee—thirty days in a calendar year.

OPINIONS of the State Comptroller make it absolutely
clear that a person who is on “ordered military duty,” and
therefore on leave of absence, cannot have this duty time
charged against his vacation allowance, nor can his em-
ployer elect to pay him the difference between his regular
salary and his military pay. He must receive the full salary.

THE MILITARY law provides numerous other benefits
and protections for public officers and employees. Military
service time is deducted from a person’s age where he ap-
plies for a position in public service that has age limitations,
(Section 243.10-a) A public employee who returns to his po-
sition after military duty is entitled to receive the rate of
pay he would have received if he had never left his position,

A PERSON who its absent from his public employment
on military duty can be appointed or promoted to another
job in the public service just as if he were not away on mil-
itary duty and he receives credit for time served in that
position,

will not cause any loss of bene-
fits. However, earnings for the
entire year in which you reach
712 count in figuring what bene-
fits are due you for months be-
fore you are 72.

how working after you apply for
benefits will affect your retire-
ment or survivors payments, in-
quire at your social security
office,

Q. 1 will receive a Christmas

bonus, Must I include this with

my regular earnings?
A. Yes. Christmas bonuses are
counted as earnings.

Q. My 16-year-old son has a
newspaper route. But nothing is
deducted from his pay for social
security, Is this legal?

A. Yes, because the earnings
of newspaper delivery boys un-
der 18 are not covered by so-
clal security. However, this ex-
emption from coverage does not
apply to young people engaged
in other kinds of work.

MOUNT MORRIS—Opera-
tions are well under way for

all representing the State.

The emergency meeting was arranged by
CSEA after Wards Island employees de-
manded an explanation of the fourth “lay-
off unit” that the Department of Mental
Hygiene had arbitrarily created on Wards
Island. Wards Island has been divided into
three hospitals, Kirby, Meyer and Dunlap,
plus an unofficial “support services” group.
Employees claimed that it is in this “sup-
port services” group that the vast majority
of layoffs have occurred; “support services”
is not an official layoff unit under the civil
service rules. The effective date for the
layoffs at Wards Island have been delayed
until June 9, pending the results of an in-
vestigation-by OER and the Mental Hygiene
Dept. A CSEA spokesman said that CSEA
is “very hopeful” that the investigation will
result in a nullification of the extra layoff
unit. If that does happen, the entire Wards
Island layoff list will probably be withdrawn
and rewritten.

the abrupt, and as yet unan-
nounced, closing of Mount
Morris State Hospital, according
to Oliver Longhine, president of
the Mount Morris chapter of the
Civil Service Employees Assn.

The Health Department has
not yet officlally closed the hos-
Pital, but “That question is by
now academic,” he said. “As far
as the patients and the staff are
concerned, Mount Morris 1s
closing.”

Until the State budget cut-
backs were finalized, Mount Mor-
ris had housed more than 100
tuberculosis patients — all men
over age 45. The hospital was
recently ordered to “drastically
cut the census,” with the result
that more than 40 patients
have already been discharged,
and a few others transferred to
Homer Folks Hospital in Oneon-
ta. Placement arrangements for
the discharged patients were done
“as well as could be expected,
given the brief time allotted for
the task,” said Longhine.

“There are 230 employees at
Mount Morris," he continued,
“and at this time it looks like
all will be laid off. Some attempt
1s being made by the Health De-
partment and the Division of
Employment to investigate trans-
fer and other Job possibilities, we
have heard, but the outlook right
now is not bright.”

Although the Health Depart-
ment has given no indication
as to when Mount Morris will
officially shut down, {t soon will
be empty. At this time, there is
no indication that tt will be
taken over by another agency
or by one of the local govern-
ments in the vicinity. It will
probably remain empty, and 230
more employees will be without
thelr jobs.

WATERTOWN—The Summer meeting of the Central

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, June 1, 1971

FSEE: Many Jobs Stem From Single Test.

College training constitutes “the primary avenue of entry into Federal Service” for
persons wishing to take the 200-title Federal Service Entrance Exam.

However, those with the equivalent in work history—as related to the title being
sought—are also welcome to have a go at the multiple positions open to successful FSEE

candidates. Most titles are situ-
ated at GS-5 or GS-7 levels, or
both.

The GS-5 positions generally
ask for college degree or “three
years of responsible experience”
with a minimum of either 70
percent as your FSEE rating or
a 1,000 score on the Graduate
Records Exam Aptitude Test.

No-Test Provision

Applicants who have attained
their four-year degree within the
past two years may have the
chance to waive the exam, pro-
vided they show evidence of
superior scholarship, The Federal
Government says that if you
have earned 3.50 out of 4.0
grade points or have qualified
among the top 10 percent grad-
uating from your class, you fit
into this category. GS-5 appoin-
tees, it was noted, now start at
$6,548.

Advanced scholarship — will
widen your appointment hori-
zons. Specifically, the GS-7 rank,
offering $8,098, stands ready to
accept the following candidates:
persons who hold a bachelor’s
and have completed one year in
graduate school; students who
have received any law school
degree, or persons who have a
work history consisting of at
least four years in the field re-
lated to the position. Such can-
didates then face the FSEE test-
ing, on which 70 percent is re-
quired.

However, there are two other
routes to obtain a GS-7 appoint-
ment through the FSEE. Degree-
holders who produce a 2.90 grade
Point average on the four-point
scale, or who rank in the upper
third of their class, can qualify
provided they score a 90 percent
mark on the PSEE or have 1,-
200 on the GRE as a combined
score. Also, college grads or ap-
Plicants with three years of the
work history indicated, if they
score 95 percent on the FSEE, or
1,300 on the GRE tests, have a
solid chance for positions at GS-
7 level classification. The nature
of experience sought appears in
the career briefs listed below.

blanks are found in Announce-
ment No, 410, available at post

Gowanda Employees Jam
Boards Of Elections To Switch
Enrollment From Republicans

GOWANDA—In an action taken against the Republican-
ruled State Government, in connection with the layoff of
thousands of State employees, more than 500 employees of
Gowanda State Hospital last week voted to conduct a series

of employee motorcades to local
boards of elections where the
employees would change their af-
fillation from Republican to
Democrat.

A spokesman for the employ-
ees said, “The attitude of the
Republicans and those in con-
trol of the State Administration
with regard to the cruel arbi-
trary layoff of State employees,
particularly at Gowanda, has
prompted the spontaneous
change of enrollment in this pre-
dominantly Republican area.

At Leader presstime, it was
reported that more than 200 em-
ployees had already changed
their enrollment.

“The people in charge of State
Government have turned their
backs on the tragic consequences
these layoffs are causing to the
individual employees, who are
being fired, and to the local
economy,” he asserted.

Gowanda, a community of
3,700 people, is being hit hard
by the layoffs, the spokesman

local merchants has been one of
disbelief and anger.

It was also learned that many
local merchants were planning
to close their doors tomorrow,
June 2, the day many of the
employee terminations were te
go into effect.

Gowanda employees called om
their co-workers across the State
to take similar action to show
their displeasure with the cut-
backs and resultant layoffs. The
workers also called on other
State employees to ask thetr
local legislators to pass resolu-
tions condemning the State’s ao-
tion and to contact their friends
and neighbors for support.

In connection with the sched-
uled June 16 strike of State em-
ployees, more than 300 Gowanda
employees signed up to man

Picket teams and captains alse
were appointed.

P.R. Column -

td (Continued from Page 2)

Stessin of Hofstra University,
“Protection Management” joins
five other successful newsletters
launched by Dr. Stessin.

DR. STESSIN, AN EXPERT in
the management field, says that
$13 billion a year is what it costs
both government and industry
for failure to protect themselves
against “rip-offs” (stealing),

e “hype” (hustle), “boost” (shop-
lift), “trash” (vandalize), ete.

THAT $13 BILLION figure
could easily double within the
next 20 years, says Dr. Stessin,
who points out what these fig-
ures could do to government
budgets and to the cost to in-
dustry of doing business now
and in the future.

“SECURITY” IS NOT just a
@ matter of who said what to

whom, and the results recorded
on tape or in “a secret file.”

THE REALITY IN both gov-
ernment and industry goes fur-
ther than that. It is more like:

©@ PROTECTION OF physical
premises from “break-in’s” for
the purposes of theft of official
forms and documents.

® SAFEGUARDING = govern-

|g ment and company personnel

files, which, in the wrong hands,
could have disastrous results.

© SECURING government and
company premises against out-
right vandalism, which seems to
be a new type of attack particu-
larly against government offices.

DR, STESSIN CAUTIONS that
“in the security field, nobody, I
repeat, nobody has a fool-proof
system.”

“WE LEARN FROM each oth-
er,” he says. “We tighten up
here, put in a new set of con-
trols there, add a piece of de-
tection equipment somewhere
else—and then somebody figures
a new way to beat the system,
And 50, it’s a never-ending, con-
stantly changing battle.”

CIVIL SERVANTS HAVE al-
ways been great learners, con-

P@® stantly alert to new techniques

to ‘1o their jobs better. “Protec-
tion Management” should add ' ~

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, June 1, 1971

| DON'T REPEAT THIS! |

(Continued from Page 1)

Snuggled in a valley and sur-
rounded by rolling hills, Middle-
town responds in the classic
manner to nature's master plan
in that it is green in the sum-
mer and white in the winter.
The people of Middletown enjoy
@ bucolic ~-enity that makes it
seem remots from the raucous
sounds of a &mplex, urban s0-
ciety, yet it is not more than
two echoes distant from the
point at which New York, New
Jersey, and Pennsylvania, the
major industrial complex in the
Northeast, share a common
boundary. The terrain of Mid-
dietown is inviting and fertile
for raising a family, away from
the tumult and shouting that
disturbs the peace of the urban
dweller.

At the moment the surface
serenity of Middletown obscures
the fact that it teeters on a
foundation that 1s as treacher-
ous as the San Andreas Fault
which recently brought the trag-
edy of sudden earthquake to Los
Angeles. What shadows the fut-
ure of Middletown is even more
tragic than an earthquake, be-
cause the people of Middletown
are threatened by a man-made,
as distinguished from a natural

ss viis peebatia ttc’ of the evil
are the State Administration and
the budget-cutters in the State
Legislature, who have callously
decreed that 500 dedicated and
loyal State employees at Middle-
town State Hospital are to be
lopped off the State payroll.
With an average of four to a
family, this action will reduce
some 2,000 people in Middletown,
approximately 10 percent of the
City’s population, to a state of
humiliating and cruel beggary.
Yet even that may be a token
of the disaster that Mes ahead
for the City and its residents.

Merchants in the City depend
on the custom of these 500 em-
Ployees and their employers. No
food stores, shoe stores, cloth-
ing stores nor any other kind of
mercantile establishment can
survive in so shrunken a mar-
ket. Vendors of local products
and produce to the State insti-
tutions whose doors will be
closed are faced with an equally
bleak future.

Schenectady Parallel

Last year, for a period of 13
weeks thousands of employees in
Schenectady were on strike
against the General Electric
Corporation. Schenectady avold-
ed total economic disaster be-
cause, among other reasons, after
the 7th week GE. employees
were paid unemployment insur-
‘ance benefits. No such benefits
are available to the State em-
Ployees in Middletown who will
lose their jobs.

Moreover, strikes traditionally
get settled, so that merchants
in Schenectady had no reluct-
ance to extend credit to their
customers who were but tempor-

arily out of work. To what de-
gree merchants in Middletown
can afford to be generous in ex-
tending credit is unknown, in
view of the fact that the State
action has about it the finality
a geath.

Our Nation is dotted with
ghost towns, remnants of places
where people once lived and
prospered. It would be tragic if
Middletown is forced by the State
to join those communities that
have disappeared from our geog-
raphy. It is not yet too late for
the State to reverse itself in the
interests of preserving Middle-
town, a city you may not care
to visit but in which more than
20,000 people care to live.

Conoby Describes
Art Of Bargaining

BUFFALO — John Conoby,
collective bargaining special-
ist for the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn., described pro-
cedures for departmental con-
tract negotiations and methods
to resolve differences during a
recent meeting of the CSEA
Buffalo chapter.

During the meeting, the 136
chapter members voted unani-
mously to support the CSEA in
the planned job action June 16.

Celeste Rosenkranz, who, along
with Grace Hillary and Maurice
Rosen, reported on the CSEA
executive committee meeting in
Albany, introduced Conoby.

Fred Huber, chapter presi-
dent, presided, and a slate of
candidates for office was offered
by the nominating committee.
Elections will be June 20 and

Strike Action Moves Ahead

(Continued from Page 1)
was used in balancing the pre-
sent budget will not be coming
in between now and April 1,
1972, Translated in terms of jobs,
this means that 24,000 more
State employees face the very de-
finite threat of layoff. If the
Governor and his administra-
tion are allowed by CSEA and
‘State employees to get away with
firing more than 8,000 workers,
many of whom have from ten
to thirty years of service, then
the additional layoffs are just
around the corner. This is a
cold hard fact all of us must
face.

No Choice

Your officers and Board of
Directors have confronted this
problem and acted. We have no
choice. We must go ahead with
a strike, because it is our only
alternative, Many people, State
legislators included, are taking
our threat lightly. We must be
strong and unified in this time
of crisis; we must carry out our
threat and destroy the notion of
many that we can’t act together.
If we stand together, officers,
board members, chapter presi-
dents, and members, then we
can lick this problem; get the
jobs back and wipe out this
cruel and inhumane administra-
tive approach to meeting a bud-
get crisis. The manner in which
the layoffs have been carried
out makes a shambles of every-
thing CSEA has worked for and
everything tie Civil Service
Merit System has stood for. Sen-
forty and security are gone. Any

employee, no matter how safe
he thinks he is, can be fired
with three weeks notice, Events
of the last two months have
proved that. You must get this
message to the members in your
chapters who think they are
safe—tell them that three times
the number laid off already may
go. This is the worst crisis we
have ever faced and we must
fight this problem together.

Personal feelings must be put
aside. The membership has
voted; the Board of Directors has
acted. We, all of us, must move
ahead together to block further
layoffs and reinstate those who
have left the payroll.

Shortly, you will recelve ma-
terlals in the mail ¢rom Head-
quarters which show how the
State could have cut back in
other areas, thereby avoiding the
firing of dedicated State em-
Ployees. This information will
also show you how the State did
not hesitate in laying off career
employees while keeping provi-
sional and temporary employees
on the job. To this end, CSEA
is launching a lawsuit against
the manner in which the layoffs
are being conducted. However,
this lawsuit alone will not pre-
yent the firings from continuing.
That is another reason why we
must take a strike action,

I also understand that rum-
ors and misinformation, appar-
ently circulated by management,
have been going around in vari-
ous State departments and agen-
cles relative to the strike. I've
heard that management 4s ask-

employees after April 1, 1971."

‘The spokesman also said, “The
changes called for by the amend-
ment would contribute to fur-
ther competition and unrest be-
tween opposing unions,” citing
one specific change which would
prevent the parties involved from
challenging a PERB unit deter-
mination until after a union wins
an election and is certified as
the bargaining representative.

“If the courts found PERB’s
uniting decision to be inappro-
priate,” then the time-consum-
ing and costly process of con-
ducting an election would have

to be repeated.”

Another section of the bill—
opposed by CSEA— would alter
the period of unchallenged rep-
resentation status, no longer ty-
ing it to the employer's budget
submission date and the agree-
ment between the employee or-
ganization and the employer, but
rather connecting it simply to
the term of a written agreement.
“This section,” the spokesman
said, “would encourage lengthy
agreements — regardless of the
wishes of the parties involved,
since the employee organization
would only be able to protect it-
self from challenge by entering
into a lengthy agreement.”

The Board of Directors of the Civil Service Employees
Assn. on May 24 created an Emergency Strike Fund to cover
any contingencies that may arise. Each Board member
voted to contribute one day’s pay to kick off the fund, The
Board resolution also called on all 200,000 members of CSEA
to each voluntarily contribute $10 or whatever they can
afford to the Emergency Strike Fund,

ing employees if they would go
on strike or cross a picket line.
You don’t have to answer these
questions. Our attorneys advise
us that employees cannot be
forced to answer such ques-
tions. I ask you to pass this in-
formation on to your members.
CSEA already has announced
that it will demand amnesty—
no penalties for striking em-
ployees—before we return to
work. Also, CSEA will provide
free legal representation when
necessary,
How To Do It

‘We must get moving on plans
for the strike NOW! It is Im-
portant that your chapter be-
gin immediately to organize so
that all will be in readiness come
June 16, Following are some
guidelines:

1. Establish a strike commit-
tee of active, responsible employ-
ees from each of the main work
locations in which you have
membership. This committee will
set up and be responsible for
arranging and keeping the strike
going until the necessary results
are achieved.

2. Conduct mass chapter meet-
ings to discuss the reasons for
and the necessity of conducting
the strike and to secure the full
support of as many members as
possible, The chapter should
pledge sufficient treasury funds
to take care of necessary local
expenses such as picket signs,
coffee for the picketers, etc.
Picket leaders and teams should
also be selected at these meet-
ings.

3. To be effective, we must
have pickets at all entrances to
your institution or other facility,
e- ering all work shifts. We feel
that if we have the proper num-
ber of pickets at each entrance,
many employees, who intended
to go to work, will not cross the
line. We will be sending out bul-
letins with many messages, in-
cluding one asking those who do
not plan to participate in the
strike to honor the picket lines.
We must make the non-members
aware that their jobs are also
threatened,

4. CSEA will appeal to all
other unions not involved di-
rectly to honor our picket lines,

5. Regional command posts
will be established throughout
the State prior to June 16. These
command posts will work with
chapters in their areas and main-
tain constant contact with CSEA
Headquarters on a round-the-
clock basis, Information on the
progress at other strike locations
will be fed to the regional com-
mand posts in order to maintain
@ consistent, unified strike ac-
tion, Information as to the lo-
cations, names of command post
leaders, ete. will be transmitted
te you as soon as they are es-
tablished,

6. State Division chapter pres-
idents in each main city or
area of employee concentration
should meet and be in constant
touch with one another and with
leaders of local government
chapters and units in those areas
to maintain a united front and
lend assistance to each other,
when necessary,

1, We have glven much sert-
ous thought to the question of

countant.

providing essential services to
patients in our mental institu-
tions and other State facilities.
We feel that the State admin-
istration, namely management,
has created this terrible situa-
tion and therefore should be
responsible for providing these
necessary services, It’s time that
the institution director, his per-
sonnel officer and other man-
agement people roll up their
sleeves and find out ~*9t pa-
tient care is all about.

8. CSHA is planning a Statewide
public relations program, using
tadio, newspaper and television,
to gain support for the strike
action from both the employees
and the general public. Various
types of printed material, tell-
ing employees why we had to
resort to a strike and why they
should participate, will also be
distributed. Our new mobile of-
fice will - used where neces-
ary in coordinating strike ac-
tivities.

9. Representatives of our more
than 170,000 local government
members have pledged whatever
assistance they can give in mak-
ing the strike successful. We will
send to all local government
chapters and units suggestions
as to how their members can be
of assistance to their fellow
State members leading up to
and during the strike.

10. In discussions with mem-
bers of the press, TV and radio
and with the general public,
chapter representatives and
members, especially ~ pickets,
should point out that the strike
is not aimed at depriving the
Public of services, but instead is
being conducted to inform the
public of the services they are
unnecessarily being deprived of

because of the Governor's ill-
advised budget cuts. It must be
made clear at all times that cut-
backs in non-personnel areas,
such as reduction of extravag-
ant spending on misplaced prior=
ities, political patronage, cancel-
lation of consultant contracts,
freeze on filling high level job
ete. would result in keeping the

8,250 employees on the payroll.

Also stress that the reduc-
tions are threatening essential
services to the public in the
areas of meat, dairy and food
inspection. Parks will open later
and close earlier; patient care
and narcotics treatment pro-
grams will be sharply curtailed;
the rodent control program will
be cut in half; 3,600 youths
the Hometown Beautification
Program will be without jobs
this summer.

CSEA Headquarters will keep
you informed of any plans or
changes as they develop, both
by mail and through The Civil
Service Leader. Our field staff
will work closely with all State
Division chapters to give what-
ever assistance is needed.

In closing, I urge you to take
immediate steps in organizing’
this job ac‘ion in your chapter.
It is up to you—our chapter pres-
idents— and your officers, com-
mittees, and members to work
together in a united and mor-
ally just cause. We must fight to
save the jobs of our more than
8,000 co-workers and prevent
the impending layoff of thou-
sands more. The State govern-
ment must be convinced that
economies can be achieved in
other ways. I, along with the
Board of Directors and our en-
tire membership, am counting
heavily on your support.

quarters officials are consider-
ing the establishment of a
“slush fund” $100,000 or more
to “work for the resounding de-
feat of those who love us and
romance us” when running for
election then “give us the busi-
ness once they're in” and sup-
port financially those who “have

The State organization,” he
sald, “Is ending its 18-year
stance of political neutrality.”

During the regular business
session, hospital employees were
advised of State and chapter ef-
forts under way to save the Jobs
of 30 employees at the Bing-
hamton facility then facing a
June 2 termination date.

Chapter president Leo Wein-
gartner said chapter officers are
considering going to court to se-
cure an injunction demanding
that the employees be retained
until Binghamton State Hospital
administrators can ‘show cause”
why seniority guidelines in the
selection of those to be fur-
loughed are not being followed.

Weingartner sald the litigation
is being held in abeyance pend-
ing the outcome of a State Em-
ployee Relations Board hearing
in Albany on the allegation.

Weingartner said he 1s aware
of several instances in which

* employees hired recently are be-~

ing retained in areas manned
by experienced employees with
years of senlority behind them.
Under the austerity budget,

the Binghamton State Hospital
was ordered to transfer some 47
Patients ranging in age from 6 @
to 20 years from its child care
unit to the West Seneca State
Hospital near Buffalo and al-
ternate facilities near Rochester.

As of last week all of the pa-
tients, according to Deputy Ad-
ministrator William Lacey, had
“een transferred and the unit
closed.

Lacey added that further cuts
at the Binghamton State Hosp!-
tal were not expected at this
time although he declined to e
rule out the possibility in the
future.

Welngartner says, however,
that other economy measures at
the State Hospital here have
included the almost total elim-
ination of in-service medical
treatment afforded State Hospi-
tal personnel for many years.

‘Those taking the oath were:
president, Leo Weingartner; first
vice-president Andy Lebwohl;
second vice-president, Ralph e
Hutta; third vice-president, Leon
Wilmot; secretary, Janet Stev-
ens; executive secretary, Morris
Sokolinsky, and treasurer Betty
Begeal. Delegates installed were
Doris Campion, Estelle Wood, Cy
Soules, Beth Stover and alter-
nates Marvin Selgel, Minerva
Kelley, Ray Wellman and Ber-
tha Tarbox,

‘Those elected became the first e
permanent officers of the new
chapter, which was officially
chartered by the State CSHA
last October.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, June 1, 1971

S250 [rilRelD=-

HOW MANY MORE TO GO?

Insiders say State is not through with its firing program--

thousands more could go.

8250 New York State Employees have
been fired or will be in the near future. This
was the figure issued by Richard L. Dunham,
Budget Director of New York State on April
20, 1971.

How many more will be fired is anybody’s
guess.

Insiders, members of the press, and our
own alert members in certain state agencies
tell us, however, that the 8250 figure is a most
conservative estimate.

CSEA, the Civil Service Employees Asso-
ciation, representing over 140,000 state work-
ers has tried by every reasonable and legal
means possible to prevent these cruel and
arbitrary firings.

Why is the state firing so many people?
Theoretically to save 200 million dollars. How-
ever, the cost of unemployment benefits to the
jobless workers, the loss of state income and
sales tax and possible welfare payments will
run into the millions and millions of dollars
once these people go off the payroll. (The
blow to local economy has also brought sharp
outcries from many already depressed areas
in the State.) That makes the 200 million dol-
lar saving a phony figure.

The result is already appalling. The Civil
Service merit system has been badly battered.
Many people with permanent positions and
years of service have already been axed —
despite the fact that they passed examina-
tions, worked long and hard, and advanced
through the ranks,

Diligent newsmen continue to dig up
startling facts about the operation of our
state government. Questionable consultant
contracts are commonplace — totaling many
millions of dollars. The Albany South Mall
construction project, billed as the largest
single construction project in the world is

apparently also one of the most inefficiently
run projects to burden the taxpayers of this
state in our entire history. Original estimates
have been doubled and tripled in many in-
stances. But somehow, the state keeps find-
ing the money to keep construction going.
One of the departments hardest hit by
the job cutbacks has been Mental Hygiene.
2839 jobs have been eliminated — (with 829
more scheduled to go) and several facilities

‘closed. This is the cruelest cut of all. Helpless

patients will be shuffled from one place to
another. Overworked attendants and thera-
pists will be even more overworked. Many
patients will be sent home to fend for them-
selves.

CSEA leaders and rank-and-file mem-
bers are distressed and angry at this cruel,
blundering attempt to straighten out the state’s
fiscal plight. Careless and undisciplined
spending (not to mention pork barrel patron-
age) put the state in its current fiscal posi-
tion, and we don’t think that state employees
should be arbitrarily sacrificed to effect a
questionable saving.

We've tried every means except one to
halt the firings. We’ve appealed to reason.
We've appealed to the courts and we’re ap-
pealing again. We've offered alternate pro-
posals. All our efforts have been rebuffed.

If everything fails by June 16, we have
only one weapon left.

A strike!
