Wait Now For Report
From Fact-Finders;
Testimony Finished

ALBANY—Testimony in the fact-finding process involving the contract dispute be-
tween the Civil Service Employees Assn. and the State of New York concluded last Thursday
evening, and at Leader presstime the three-member fact-finding panel was evaluating the
data, information and testimony entered into the record during the eight days that sessions

were conducted.

And although they admitted to
being interested in arriving at a
recommendation as quickly as

McGowan: State Should Set Up
Food Stamp Outlets For Its Own

BUFFALO—Reacting to press reports that Gov, Hugh L, Carey is urging “low income
New Yorkers to apply for food stamps,” William L. McGowan, Western Region 6 president
of the Civil Service Employees Assn, last week sent a telegram requesting the Governor to
establish food stamp application centers at all major state facilities

Mr. McGowan said he sent the
message, because a majority of
the state's 147,000 employees in
our bargaining units “are eligible
and should be enrolled in the
program.”

Expressing satisfaction with
the Governor's “belated recogni-
tion of the current national eco-
nomie crisis due to the ravages
of inflation,” Mr. McGowan said
that the largest single group of
state workers, 32,000 of them, is
in job Grade 7 with a salary
level of $7,200; another 43,000
are in lower grades and thus “al-
most certainly eligible for food
stamps.”

He urged the Governor to set
up the application centers at
state agency personne! offices or
wherever adequate supporting

For Public Employees

Right To Strike
Is Archaic Issue

THE issue whether public

employees should have
the right to strike is an ar-
chaic one, It is an issue
where fact, practice and experi-
ence have made a shambles out
of the shibboleth that such a
strike is offensive to some theo-

records are available

‘The union and the state are
currently pressnting evidence to
a state Public Employment Re-
lations Board-appointed three-
man fact-finding panel consider-
ing four issues subject to a re-
opener clause of the current
agreement. Mr, McGowan asked
the governor “to place into the
record your remarks, as quoted
in the press reports, so that the
fact-finders will know that you
agree that inflation 1s hurting
stale workers, too.

Governor Carey's remarks, Mr.
McGowan said, appeared in con-
nection with his announcement
of a toll-free hot line number
giving information on food-
stamp eligibility, The number Is
1-800-342-3710, It is in service
Monday through Friday, 7 a.m,-
10 p.m

The Governor was quoted as
saying that as many as a million
residents are currently losing be-
tween $100 million and $120 mil-
lon in food stamp benefits to
which they are entitled. Mr, Mc~
Gowan said that “probably 20
percent of that million are pub-
lic employees at all levels” and
said he was glad to join the
Governor in urging that they
apply. *

Pending the esiablishment of
the suggested state application
centers, Mr. McGowan said he is
urging all public employees, of
whom more than 300,000 are
represented by CSEA at ell levels
of government, to apply at
county social services offices
“where they will in at least 62
counties be serviced by fellow
CBEA members, who understand

In addition to state employees,

there must be “tens of thous-
is of school district workers
who work part-time and equally

able to indicate exactly when
they would arrive at a recom-
mendation designed to resolve
the dispute. Most observers be-

came sometime this week in or-
der to give both sides time to
review the suggestions before the
end of the month.

Under the Tuylor Law, a fact-
finder's recommendation {s
sidered confidential for a period
of five days from the day it is
issued to both parties, although
either party may make the rec-
ommendation public if it wishes.
In any event, the State's Public
Employment Relations Board
(PERB) will make the recom-
mendation public at the end of
the five-day confidentiality pe-
riod.

CSEA officials were making
plans at Leader presstime to call
in members of the union's State
Executive Committee, statewide
officers and the full bargaining
teams for the four CSEA nego-
tating units of state workers to
review the fact-finders’ recom-
mendation when It is submitted,
and in any event not later than
April 28

An impasse in negotiations be-
tween CSHA und the State rela-
tive to a reopener clause for the
third year of the present 3-year
contract covering some 147.000
state workers was reached in late
March. Negotiations had begun
in late January, CSEA delegates
meeting in Albany on Mareh 31
elected to have the dispute go to
fact-finding, and the 3-member
panel was appointed by PERB.

NYC Chapter To Seek
Removal Of Supervisor

MANHATTAN—The Civil Service Employees Assn. New
York City chapter executive council voted last week to re-
quest removal of the New York City Region 2 supervisor.

NYC chapter, largest of
2, passed the motion after Solo-
mon Bendet, who serves as pres-
ident of both the chapter and
the region, explained some of the
difficulties that he faced in re-
cent months,

The relationship between the
supervisor, George Bispham, and
Mr, Bendet had been considered
good by most observers until re-
cently,

At issue, however, is whether
the president or the supervisor
has final authority within the
region. The president is elected
by all CSEA members within the
region, whereas the supervisor is
an appointed member of the
CSEA staff.

The Region 2 confrontation
came to a head this month
when locks to the office were
changed, and Mr, Bendet’s nam»
removed from the office door.

In another action, the chapter
executive council] approved fur-
ther appeal of its court case
against the CSEA statewide or-
ganization concerning the recog-
nition of Downstate Medical
Center as a separate chapter.

Downstate Medical Cenier,
which had been represented by
NYC chapter, was granted a sep-
arate charter last year. NYC
chapter contends that members
should have the option to con-
tinue their membership in the
older chapter if they so choose

The Appellate Court has ruled
four-to-one in favor of the state-
wide organization. Since the de-
cision was split, however, NYC

the organizations in Region

chapter voted to seek a definitive
judgment from the Court of Ap-
peals.

A chapter nominating commit-
tee was also named, with Evelyn
Glenn as temporary chairman.

Other committee members are
Rosalie Jones, Rose Feuerman,
Viola Pruitt, Marie Robinson,
Mel Kaplan, Ray Lizer, Robert
Piaz, Ralph Suskind. Joseph
Dickier, Gertrude Chiaravalle
and Connie Andovino.

Nominations should be sent to:

nounced last week thit the Pub-
lic Employment Relations Board
has refused to decertify CSEA as
official representative of Nassau
County police employees.

A challenge was mounted re-
cently to CSEA by the Nassau

Assn, intended to decertify CSEA

Nassau Pact Result
Expected Shortly

MINEOLA — Irving Flau-
menbaum, president of the
Nassau County chapter, Civil
Service Employees Assn., said
Inst. week that the results of a
county legislative hearing on a

After the meeting, board mem-
ber Francis Purcell, presiding
supervisor of the Town of
Hempstead, said the results of
the hearing would be announced

At the meeting Mr, Plaumen-
baum cited the necessity of an
early determination of the con-
tract,

“The employees are upset,” he
said at the time, “because it's
taking too long to settle the
problem.” They would like faster
action, even though, by written
agreement, everything deter-
mined by the Board of Super-
visors will be retroactive to Jan

First Money From MONY

MANHATTAN—The first dividend on the Mutual of
New York supplemental life insurance plan was mailed
April 11, to all CSEA members who qualified.

The amount of the check represents 5 percent of the

premium payable for that cover-
age which was in force for the
entire policy year of Nov. 1, 1973
to Oct. 31, 1974. Premiums for
any coverage added after Nov. 1,
1973 do not qualify for this
dividend.

It is hoped that with continued
growth of member participation
in the Supplemental Life plan
and continued favorable claim

experience that further dividends
will be possible, company offi-
cals said

CSEA members who believe
they qualify for this dividend.

‘TUES DAY, APRIL, | 22, 1975,

PERB On Trial

|ACT-FINDING has ended, with both the State and the

Civil Service Employees Assn. having presented their
cases to the three-member pane! entrusted with arriving at
an impartial recommendation

In many ways, the results will have far more reaching
effects than the determination in the State-CSEA dis-
pute over the third-year reopener of the union’s three-year
contract,

At stake also is the integrity and usefulness of the
Public Employment Relations Board, which is an arm of the
State.

Many people have felt that it was a futile gesture for
legal purposes to go through fact-finding, since the State
Administration was appointing the persons who would be
sitting In judgment of the State Administration.

On the one hand, a certain amount of politics would
be expected, while on the other hand, the integrity of the
panel members on the line.

It is a pleasure to say that most observers of the fact-
finding meetings were generally impressed with the interest
and fair play exhibited by the panel members: chairman
Maurice Benewitz, John McConnell and Jonas Silver.

Representatives of the Civil Service Employees Assn.
were also highly lauded for the skill and high level of prepa-
ration exhibited In making the presentation for the union
side,

Now the long wait begins, although the fact-finders have
indicated that they will move as quickly as possible to
arrive at their recommendation,

Once the fact-finders’ recommendation has been deliv-
ered, though, the State and the union must decide whether
or not to accept the proposal.

The show of good will demonstrated by the CSEA Board
in calling off the rule-book slowdown did not foreclose the
union’s option of calling for strike action at the end of this
month,

We certainly hope that the fact-finders will have been
acceptable in putting together a package that both parties
can accept.

In view of the reasonable demands by CSEA and the
heels-dug-in attitude of the State thus far, that will be
like pulling a rabbit out of a hat.

We will continue to hope for the best, though, since the
citizens of this state will be the real losers if the dispute
is not settled with dispatch,

(Continued from Page 1)

the right of public employees to
strike was voiced a generation
ago by President Franklin Del-
ano Roosevelt, He said:

“Militant tactics have no place
in the function of any organiza-
tion of government employees. A
strike of public employees man!-
fests nothing less than an intent
on thelr part to obstruct the
operation of government until
thelr demands are satisfied. Such
action, looking toward the par-
alysis of government by those
who have sworn to support it, is
unthinkable and intolerable.”

Rapid Growth

‘The facts are that such con-
duct by public employees is
neither unthinkable nor intoler-
able. As a practical matter, pub-
Me employees associations are
fast growing and getting to be
among the best organized of
labor organizations, During the
two decades from 1951 to 1972,
government work forces in-
creased by 150 percent, payrolls
by almost 600 percent, associa-
tion membership by 130 percent
and strikes by public employees
by 1,000 percent.

The Civil Service Employees
Assn. is not a strike-happy or-
ganization, Nor are any of the
other similar associations
throughout the country. It takes
reasonableness on both sides of
the collective bargaining table to
come to a realistic and creative
conclusion. Unfortunately in too
many instances, the public em-
ployer comes to the bargaining
table with a sense of arrogance,
knowing that the arsenal of laws
that make public employee
strike a crime, are all stacked in
his favor. In that kind of atmos-
phere, the free play of collective
bargaining ts necessarily frus-
trated

The simple point is that we
have passed that point in time
where civil service employees are
second-class citizens. They can
no longer tolerate limitations on
their economic and political
rights beyond thos: which neces-
sarily cireumseribe the rights of
all other citizens,

Hatch Act

Also a generation ago, Con-
gress enacted the Hatch Law
which prohibited all political ac-
tivities by federal public em-
ployees and by those state and
jocal employees whose salaries
are paid in whole or in part by
federal funds.

However, a provision of the
Federal Election Campaign Act,
which became effective on Jan, 1
of this year, removed most Hatch
Act restrictions agains: state
and local government employees.
Thus some 3 million state and
loca) civil service employees may
now resume their privilege of
serving as officers of political or-
@anizations, may be selected as
delegates to political nominating
conventions, and may participate
in campaign activities for can-
didates whom they favor,

As it Is now, almost $ million
federal employees are still denied
the right to participate in po-

Civil Service
Law & You

By RICHARD GABA

Mr. Gaba is a member of the firm of White, Walsh and Gaba,
P.C., and chairman of the Nassau County Bar Assoctation Labor
Law Committee.

Police Increments

In 1971 the Village of Ossining and the Village of Ossin-
ing Police Assn. entered into a collective bargaining agree-
ment under the Taylor Law which provided for a salary
increment of $10 per year per credit point up to a maximum
of 50 credit points for the completion of courses by police
officers in the field of police science or administration,
provided those courses were approved by the Board of Trus-
tees of the Village. A number of police officers completed
these courses and the Village commenced paying the in-
creased salary benefits. The Village stopped paying those
benefits ater in 1971 upon the order of the Village Manager,
who felt that the Village was bound by an opinion of the
State Comptroller which concluded that the contract pro-
vision was prohibited,

THE ASSOCIATION filed a grievance pursuant to its
collective bargaining agreement which proceeded to arbitra-
tion. The arbitrator who was appointed pursuant to the
contract determined that the Village was obligated under
the agreement to pay the salary increments, The Village,
nevertheless, refused to pay and the Association commenced
& proceeding pursuant to the Civil Service Practice Law and
Rules to confirm the arbitrator's award. The Village cross~
petitioned to vacate the award on the sole ground that it
was bound by the opinion of the State Comptroller, and
that it would have been illegal for the Village to make the
payments called for in the contract, The Village pointed to
Section 199-bb of the Village Law, which provided that:
“The annual salary and compensation of the members of
such police force shall be uniform in accordance with their
rank and grade.” The Comptroller, in his opinion, cited
Matter of Teachers Association, Central High School District
No, 3 (Huntington teachers’ case) to the effect that an
express legislative restriction such as Section 199-bb pre-
vented the Village from paying salary increases for college
credits and by Village policemen, The theory of the Comp-
troller was that all Village policemen in the same rank and
grade must receive the same salary.

THE LOWER COURT in Special Term agreed with the
Comptroller's opinion and dismissed the petition on the
Ground that the payment of salary increments was contrary
to law and would subject Village Trustees to the conse-
quences of an unlawful act. On appeal to the Appellate
Division, Second Department, the Association urged that

January
Jobless

One out of every 10 city resl-
dents in the job force was out
of work in January, the state
labor department reports in its
Jatest official monthly manpower
reviews.

‘The department says the 10.6
percent jobless rate represented
@ substantial jump from the 8.5
percent December figure. The
January, 1974 figure was only
6.9 percent, The number of city
residents out of work was 338,-
000, up 68,000 from December
and 121,000 higher than the
January, 1974 figure, The report
predicts continued high unem-
ployment because of the poor
economy.

White collar workers and con-
struction workers were among
the hardest hit. Construction
employment was down to 90,000
workers and many white collar
workers were reportedly facing
extreme long-term unemploy-
ment.

Trade employment was down
23,000, government service down
10,000 and transportation and
public utilities down 5,000.

i Civil Service Law & You i

(Continued from Page 6)

Section 199-bb of the former Village Law was not a legisla-
tive restriction which expressly prohibited collective bar-
gaining as to a particular term or condition of employment.
The Association further argued that even if it was a restric-
tion, the provision in question did not violate that prohibi-
tion since all police officers received equal treatment under
the agreement.

THE APPELLATE DIVISION held that it was not neces-
sary for it to analyze whether Section 199-bb was an express
legislative prohibition. The Appellate Division concluded
that the collective bargaining agreement did not violate
that section and it merely provided that salary and com-
pensation was to be uniform in accordance with rank and
grade. Section 199-bb does not mandate identical salaries
for all police officers of the same rank and grade, and it
may not be concluded that under the statute salaries must
be the same, “Each police officer in Ossining has an equal
opportunity to obtain salary increments based upon the
successful completion of approved courses. As long as the
equal opportunity is available, salaries are uniform and the
policy expressed by the Legislature has been fulfilled.” Ac-
cordingly, the Appellate Division reversed the Judgment of
the lower court and therefore held that the arbitration
award should be enforced. Village of Ossining Police Asso-
ciation y, Village of Ossining, New York Law Journal, Volume

Albany Region Delegates
* Debate Contract Dispute

COLONIE—The current Civil Serv-
ice Employees Assn. contract dispute
with the State was thoroughly de-
bated at last month’s meeting of
Albany Region 4 delegates, presided over
by regional president Joseph McDermott

An updating of negotiations was given
by CSEA president Theodore C. Wenz!
who made a hurried appearance with the
delegates during a break in the contract
talks,

e During the ensuing discussion, Mr. Me-
Dermott pointed out that employees are
entitled to their pay, even if they par-
ticipate in job action on the day checks
are to be issued.

Albany County chapter president Ho-
ward Cropsey, who is opposing Mr. Mc-
Dermott for the regional presidency this
spring, noted that legal means of resolv-
ing the constract dispute still remained

A boycott of Albany newspapers wa:
suggested by Robert Rhubin, vice-presi-
dent of the Employees Retirement Sys-
tem chapter. It was pointed out that
the area newspapers had been giving
news coverage considered unfavorable to
the Association, and that only anti-CSEA
letters were being printed, Action on this
was held up pending investigation of the
legality of such a move.

Marge Karowe, assistant counsel for
CSEA, reported on the status of the Com-
prehensive Employment Training Act, She
explained that information is now being
received from the Counties on CETA
abuses, and that she ts keeping on top
of the situation in order to determine
what action should be taken by CSEA.

A presentation was also made by rep-
resentatives of the Saratoga State Pair
Discussion followed on the advisability of
CSEA participation with an informa-
tional booth.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesd:

‘Favoritism And Nepotism’
Is Charged In Marcy Suit

UTICA—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has filed sult in State Supreme Court,
Utica, seeking the reinstatement of an occupational therapist at Marcy Psychiatric Cen-

ter’s children unit

CSEA charged “favoritism and nepotism” when a long-time therapist, James Perry,

of Oriskany, was transferred to
adult service at Marcy last No-
vember. He was replaced in chil-
dren service by the wife of a
doctor recently transferred to the
center.

‘The suit, filed by CSEA re-
gional attorney John C, Scholl
on behalf of Mr. Perry, names
the State Mental Health De-
partment, the Marcy Psychiatric
Center and Nelson Sanchez, the
hospital director, us defendants
CSEA charges that the acts of
the defendants in transferring
Mr. Perry and the appointment
of Mrs, Andres Tamoyo as head
of the therapy program for chil-
dren at the Center's Crane Hill
School, the Marcy children’s unit
“are arbitrary and capricious and

Youth Centers
Mealtime Fees
Ended By DFY

ALBANY — After several
meetings between the Civil
Service Employees Assn. and
officials of the Division For
Youth, DFY has rescinded pay-
roll deductions for meals taken
at the facilities for employees in-
volved in direct child oare.

The deductions have been re-
scinded, however, pending fur-
ther discussions between CSEA
and DFY

CSEA officials noted that the
union and DFY apparently have
the same objective: employees
shall eat with the children un-
der their care but shall not be
required to pay.

Facilities where a deduction of
$8.86 per pay period was taken
include Highland, Goshen, War-
wick, South Cartwright and
Overbrook

CSEA officials said that aj-
though a deduction was taken
for the April 14 pay period at
the involved facilities, this is the
last one. The item will not re-
appear in future pay checks;
the old rate of $4.91 will con-
tinue at all other facilities,

A CSEA spokesman said that
given enough time and discus-
sion with the Division of Bud-
get, the problem should be re-
solved to the satisfaction of the
union and DFY

are based solely upon unlawful
grounds of favoritism and nepo-
tism. i.

Mr. Perry was a certified oc-
cupational therapist at the Crane
Hill Schoo! for 15 years. On Nov
15, 1974, he was transferred to
the adult services unit at Marcy.
The transfer coincided with the
naming of Mrs, Tamoyo to head
the therapy program in the chil-
dren's unit, Dr. Tamoyo had
transferred to Marcy Psychiatric
Center from the Rome Develop-
mental Center the
month

The transfer of Mr. Perry out
of children services “dilutes the
children's program at the Crane
Hill School,” charged Willlam
Deck, president of the Marcy
Psychiatrie Center CSEA chap-
ter. Mr, Deck pointed out that
Mr. Perry was active in “a ton
of hospital-related programs for
children and was extremely liked
by the children over a period of
15 years.

previous

“Purthermore,”
“the transfer

said Mr, Deck,
has resulted in
two female therapists in children
services at Marcy, even though
about 90 percent of the children
at Crane Hill Schoo! are boys.”

The CSEA chapter president
also noted that Mr, Perry's back-
ground and expertise ts in men-
tal retardation and children’s

Arlington School Workers
Give A Bicentennial Gift

POUGHKEEPSIE— Members of the Arlington School
District unit, Civil Service Employees Assn,, donated 27 con-
secutive hours of labor April 19-20 as their contribution to
the Bicentennial celebration at Arlington Junior High School

About 40 CSEA custodial and
grounds workers worked without
pay from 2 p.m. Saturday to 5
p.m. Sunday to keep the building
and grounds open for the expect-
ed 800 participants. Hugh Crap-
ser, president of the Dutchess
County Education chapter of
CSEA said, “Our members felt
that, by donating thelr labor to
the affair, they were both con-
tributing to the spirit of the
celebration and helping to make
it @ success.”

Many participants came to the
Junior high school Saturday af-
ternoon and camped there over-
night, The festival officially ran
from 11 a.m. te 4 p.m. Sunday.
Sponsored by Dutchess County
and the City and Town of
Poughkeepsie, the festivities in-
cluded Indian dances, re-enact-
ing of battles, displays of rep-
Meas of covered wagons and
horse-drawn carriages and other
commemorauve activities,

services; yet he was transferred
to a mental health function in
the adult unit.

In its court suit, CSEA alleges
the transfer was illegal because
money to pay Mr. Perry's salary
is being taken from the budget
of the Mental Retardation Di-
vision, @ separate entity from
the budget of the psychiatric
center

The suit further alleges thet
the supervisor's position at Crane
Hill School, to which Mrs.
Tamoyo was appointed, had been
vacant for several years even
though there were qualified per-
sons to fill it.

Mr, Perry's suit seeking rein-
statement in the Crane Hill
School unit will be heard in

State Supreme Court on April 30.

BLOOD TEST — Kenneth Brehm, an employee of the Agri-
culture and Markets Department and a plant industry representative
of its Civil Service Employees Assn. chapter, has a sample of his
blood drawn at the State Campus, Albany, to test for pesticide levels.
This safety precaution, along with one that provided protective cover-
ally and garb for plant industry inspectors, was recently negotiated
by a CSEA bargaining committee during department level contract
negotiations. Mr. Brehm is a candidate for the CSEA Board in

the coming statewide elections.

Action Demanded By Rochester
Leader Should Fact-Finding Fail

ROCHESTER—If a three-member fact-finding panel dealing with the current State-
Civil Serviee Employees Assn, contract imbrogiio makes a determination acceptable to
the union and then if Gov. Hugh L. Carey rejects the panel's findings, then CSEA members
should withhold their labor from the state, the president of the Rochester chapter said.

“That is the only action with
any possible effect,” Samuel
Grossfield told a membership
meeting last week at the 40 and
8 Club here. The meeting was
held to hear delegates report on
the rally in Albany.

“Our people have to stand up
and fight when they feel this ts
the only way they'll get justice,”
said Mr. Grossfield.

The official recalled that
"Candidate Carey told us at the
Concord Hotel that public em-
ployees should have the right to
withhold their labor, like anyone
else,

“That reasonable attitude of
Candidate Carey ts not being
carried out by Governor Carey. I
strongly recommend that Mr,
Carey play back that record, and
not eat his words but put them
into action,”

Mr. Grossfield strongly em-
phasized that before any job ac-
tion is taken, members must vote
on it

“Anything affecting their lives
as much as a job action should
have their approval or disap-
proval,” he said. He said ballots
should be matied to members di-
rectly from CSEA headquarters
in Albany, with all details spelled
out, Ballots then would be re-
turned directly to Albany.

“They (the ballots) should not
be through individual chapters,”
Mr. Grossfield said. “Only in

this way will we have the will of
the members." He noted that in
March 1972, a roll call vote of
delegates was taken. There was
a full day of deliberation but no
confirmation from the members,
he said.

“Time ran out then as the
contract was running out, so I
reluctantly went along with it,”
he sald. “But we should never
get ourselves into a situation like
that again.”

Instead of “fooling around
with other things,” Mr. Gross-
field said, the CSEA should cam-
paign against the punitive fe
ures of the Taylor Law “so that
state employees will have the
same rights as those in the
private sector.

“We want to make sure that
no punitive action can be taken
against state workers for what-
ever happens if there is no
movement in negotiations.”

POUGHKEEPSIE—The president of the Poughkeepsie
School unit, Civil Service Employees Assn., !s forming a
coalition of public employees with the purpose of endorsing

mayor and aldermen of Pough-
keepsie: school board; county ex-
ecutive, and county board of
representatives,

“We will take a thorough look
at the past records of incum-
bents and the platforms of chal-
lengers,” Mr, Famelette said,
“and then give our support to
those who we feel will do the

most to help the public worker.”

Mr. Pamelette, who is political
action chairman of the Dutchess
County Education chapter,

have much to gain by standing
together and backing pro-labor
candidates, It's vital that we
have elected officials who under~
stand the problems and needs of
government workers,”

tact Mr, Pameletie at his home.

Food Stamps For State Workers:

(Continued from Page 1)
who are eligible for food stamps,
but have never applied,” he said.

The food stamp program, he
explained, permits eligible per-
sons to buy stamps worth $154
in food at ® cost of “zero to
$130" per month, And, while in-
come, housing and medical costs
are considered in the applica-
on, persons may be eligible
even when they have savings
and Insurance or own cars and
homes.

Mr. McGowan, an Orchard
Park resident who works at the
West Seneca Developmental
Center, cited an example pub-
Ished in Erle County's food
stamp booklet in which a work~-
er with three dependents, earn-
ing $135 weekly, supplemented
with his wife’s $35 unemploy-
ment insurance benefits, became
eligible for food stamps when de-
ductions were made for taxes,
social security, union dues, and
medical, parochial school and

work expenses,

“The food savings are there
and anyone who doesn't earn a
living wage should feel no
qualms about applying,” Mr,
McGowan said. He also ex-
Plained that many of the union's
locals, like his own, have avall-
able applications and assistance
and that the “experiences of
those workers who have applied
have been good, maybe because
we're serviced by our fellow pub-
lc servante.”
