| MINEOLA, July 30—Nassau Supreme Court Justice Frank
A. Gulotta, in a significant decision, recently ruled that the
courts are entitled to review the grading of essay questions

on civil service examinations, |

Gulotta overruled the objections
of the Nassau County attorney's
office that the court was empow-

fered only to review examinations

involving true-false and multiple

appear that the Democrats
will accomplish little by put-
ting up a candidate that par-
allels Rockefeller's qualities.
They will have to come up
with someone with a label
that Rockefeller can’t claim,
a label that spells a strong
voice with hefty voter appeal.

Some quiet voices, in the
Democratic Party, who recog-
nize the need to unscramble
the current confusions and
uncertainties existing over
the choice of a gubernatorial
candidate, feel that the time
has now come for the party
to take the “big” chance—
and pick an out-and-out labor

man to lead them into battle}

at the head of the ticket this
fall.

Should these now quiet
voices have their way, indi-
cations are that a favorite
dark hore candidate at the
moment is the powerful, arti-
culate president of the Central
Labor Council, Harry Van
Arsdale.

The Labor Council 1s com-
posed of the AFL-CIO unions
in the Metropolitan area,
claims more than 1,000,000
members from these affiliated
organizations and, in working
family terms, three times that
many votes at the polls.

Not only a day to day
negotiator, Van Arsdale is
the political and civic spokes-
man, the top level policy
maker for the Council. He
represents his large labor
group on most state authori-
ties, park and other commis-
sions, education boards—any
elvil or political area in which
the Council, speaking for its
membership, has a voice, His
duty is to represent the views
of this segment of labor and
to effectuate its wishes on
any issue.

Although basically a Dem-
ocrat, he has at times open-
ly disagreed with party poll-
cies and has even crossed
party lines to get what he
thinks his people deserved.
The most recent example is his

close work with Governor |

Rockefeller in settling the
hospital workers’ strike,

Last year, he formed the
Brotherhood Party from lab-
or with the idea that labor
represented the thinking of
the people in terms of edu-
cation, better politics, im~-
proved community service.
This new party later endorsed
Wagner in the mayoralty
race.

This year, he is support-
ing the re-election of Con-
gressman Charles Buckley,

work week a few months ago
for the electrical unions, Van
Arsdale increased his repu-
tation nationwide, His success
in this field didn’t earn him
the affection of the business
and industrial world, how-
ever, In addition to the bust-
ness and industrial communt-
ty in the state, he would
find it tough going in wooing
the rural vote and the vote
of those who fear that labor
is already too powerful. It
could be assummed that his
greatest attraction would be
|to minority groups, especial-
ly where his activities have
made these groups feel he is
their champion in improving
wage and working conditions,
and to the working family
vote, which does comprise the
majority vote in the state,
This is not to say that
Rockefeller is without appeal

them salary raises in the
same year that he raised
the state income tax and the
following year, in the face
of Legislature demands for
a tax rebate, completed the
raise structure he had prom-
ised. On the whole, however,
he would be unable to com-
pete with Van Arsdale as a
spokesman for the wants of
labor.

At this writing, there 1s
little indication that the Dem-
ocratic leaders are prepared
to undertake such bold and
drastic action, especially with
the number of good, tradi-
tional candidates in the par-
ty. Van Arsdale, or any other
leading labor figure, may not
be the answer as far as they
are concerned, But his type
of candidacy, some declare,
woud be bold and different,
They urge that the thins; to
| remember fs that an imitation
of Rockefeller won't defeat
Rockefeller at this point.

|Civil Service
Friend Replies

Editor, The Leader;

Some 20 years ago you pub-
lished @ letter of mine in praise
of your campaign on behalf of
the Pension Forum Group of the
New York City Police Department.
This was a group which repre-
sented the newer members of the
Department, of which I was an
active member. Over the years I
have been @ reader of your great

CTION by the New York City Board of Estimate to

deny Supreme Court Justice J. Vincent Keogh, con-)

victed of accepting a bribe, a city pension is a matter that
should be closely watched by civil servants,

There are those who claim that Keogh paid and earned

his pension and that malfeasance in office is an issue apart. |
i
Another school of thought would have it that Keogh

forfeited any rights to his pension by violating the trust of
public office.

Those advocating awarding the pension point out that
going to jail is punishment enough and that convicted per-
sons are not stripped of possessions, property, money, income,
or pensions, as a rule, because they have been found gullty
of a crime.

The main contention of the second school of thought is
that Keogh no longer held the rights and privileges of his
office when he was convicted,

The state has not yet declared whether or not it
would pay Keogh its portion of his pension. And it is
expected that Keogh will have the City action tested in
the courts.

There are issues here that go beyond the case of one
man and we feel the whole problem should receive very
careful study before civil servants begin chosing sides. It
would be unfortunate if the denial of a pension to one man
because of public clamor could set a precedent that would
allow pension denials for much lesser causes.

It is inherent in democratic societies that the rules}

by which the majority abide are sometimes violated for
personal gain. This does not prove that the rules are wrong

nor that they should be abolished because individuals abuse |

them from time to time. The violator should be punished for
his wrong without the essential “rightness” of the rules, by

which the majority benefits, being dismissed, The issue is a|

Jarge one, indeed.

A More Effective
Police Recruitment

HE old complaint that a policeman js hard to find

when you need him has taken an ironic twist recently |

in terms of recruitment. The shout for help is coming from
cities all over the nation, It would seem that fewer and

fewer young men find themselves attracted to a police
career,

New York City, as well as some other jurisdictions,
has attempted to beef up its list of candidates for the

patrolman’s list by recruiting outside the City, This strikes |

us as a minimal means of improving the number of can-
didate applications. We would recommend, instead, the
actions of two upstate communities as the more effective
method of recruitment,

The City of Watertown and the Onondaga County
sheriff's office are feeling the personne! pinch as much as
any other community, but they have not stopped trying
new recruitment techniques by limiting themselves to
allowing outside eligibility, Instead, they have added two
important factors—stiffer examinations, rather than modi-
fied ones, and better pay,

Improved qualififications and salary strikes us as an
imaginative approach and the only one truly likely to
benefit recruitment,

newspaper which has been most
helpful to civil service employees.

Today, however, I am a bit
taken aback. The writer of your)
column “Don't Repeat This” de-
leries a lack of public officials in
espousing and defending public
employees, Apparently my efforts
in the past eight years in the
State Senate have gone unnoticed.
A quick look at the Legisiative
| Index of bills introduced by me
| tor these past eight years will give
you some idea of my interest for
civil servants. Even though, es a
minority member, I may fail to
get great numbers of bills passed.
T assure you that if a visit w
made to the Senate during the
legislative session, you would see
that even the Republicans respect
my feelings and sentiments as an)
expert on behalf of public em-

ployees, The Red Book outlining
my background will show that I
was the President of the Civi] Ser-
¥ice Forum, Power Division Coun-/
sel of the old Board of Trans-

portation for two years, from 1940
to 1942, and I later spent ten years
with the New York City Police
| Department,

This past year, of 125 bills in-
troduced by myself, 52 of them
dealt with civil service employees.
This percentage has even been |
sreater in past years. As a result
of this great number of bills on
behalf of our civil servants, I
have lost the active endorsment
of the Citizens Union, a rather
important group in our com-
munity, because of their feelings
that I am too generous, especially
in some of my pension bills, with
the taxpayers money. This has!
been indicated in their appraisal
of my record at each election |
in the past.

You are in a better position than
any other group to publicize these
facts. You can create a leader
and spokesman for public em-
ployees. Our metropolitan news-
papers will never give this area
| proper coverage, I would suggest
that you do a job similar to the
State APL-CIO, which only yes-
terday mailed out a brochure in-
dicating the right and wrong
votes on their critical legislation
of all of the legislators for the
past several years, In this fashion
T am sure you will develop a
greater number of spokesmen.

THOMAS J. MACKELL

‘The Leader is well aware of the
number of members of the New|

refers was to call on public of-

Civil Service
LAW & YOU

By HAROLD L. HERZSTEIN:

Pass An Exam, Lieutenant

ON JULY 17th, 1962, The New York Times ran an ar-
ticle on the phenomenal growth of Long Island, that is Nas-
sau and Suffolk Counties, Its present population of 2,085,000
ranked it the fourth largest “city” in the United States,
following New York City, Chicago and Los Angeles. Its 1940
population or war population had been approximately 604,000,
That twenty years increase was terrific and it is still grow-
ing, and growing fast.

CIVIL SERVICE LAW has grown just as fast on Long
Island. It is really up-to-date. Look at the new county chart-
er, the Kaplan reports all over it, the tremendous growth in
CSEA membership there, and so forth,

TO ME AS a lawyer, the phenomenal growth in Long

| Island in the last ten year, let us say, has been the develop-

ment of civil service law. In that respect, I have the
highest regard for the Honorable Fred J, Munder, one of
the Justices of the Supreme Court. His lengthy and fine
judicial opinions on new phases of civil service law have
done much for its development.

LAST YEAR Judge Munder decided Matter of Bernard
Gaiser y. Thom, 30 Misc. 619, which was unanimously affirm-
ed by the Appellate Division this year, 225 N. ¥. 8S. 2d
(no official report yet). It was a most interesting opinion.

IN THAT CASE the petitioner had held the rank of
Heutenant in the Town of Islip Police Department, of which
he had been a permanent member since 1938 and a temp-
orary member before then, and had been appointed captain
provisionally. After 1, 1960, when the Town's police depart-
ment membership had been transferred to the County, he
applied for a captaincy. He was appointed a captain pro-
visionally by the County, However, an examination was
then given for that office, which he took and failed. He
was then reduced to the rank of lieutenant,

GAISER CLAIMED that he should have been covered
in as a captain of permanent rank upon the transfer to
| the County. On June 12, 1960, he addressed a request to
the Civil Service Commission for recognition as a captain.
That request was denied, and he went to Judge Munder.

THE JUDGE denied him the requested relief.

JUDGE MUNDER'S OPINION

THE JUDGE started out by referring to the civil ser-
vice provision of the State Constitution, Article 5, Section
6, which relates to civil service promotion. He wrote, as
follows:

It Is practical! to test fitness for positions in police
departments by writwen examinations . . . A provisional
appointment which is a stopgap or temporary appoint-
ment without competitive examination pending the
establishment by such examination of an eligible list,
can never ripen into a permanent appointment.

THE JUDGE did not stop there. He examined the
entire fleld of getting jobs without examination and drew
excellent conclusions. He discussed the “covering in” and
“going concern” rules, as follows:

Covering in is a device which may be legally em-
ployed to permanently retain in the positions they
occupy those who hold positions when civil service
is first extended to a municipality, This was the accom-
plishment of the Fite Law in 1942 when civil service
was extended to all counties, towns and villages.

The same device Is employed when a municipality
acquires a private institution or enterprise. This is call-
ed the “going concern rule’. The employees of the
private agency may be covered in as permanent em-
ployees in the competitive class of civil service. (Civil
Service Law, # 45.)

JUDGE MUNDER then made the following excellent
conclusion:

The petitioner's permanent status in the Islip Town
Police Department was that of police lieutenant, His
promotions thereafter were on a provisional basis only,
He acquired no right of tenure either from the con-
tinuance of that provisional status beyond the statutory
limit or from the failure to schedule or provide pro-
motional examinations, Thus the petitioner never had
claim to @ permanent status beyond that of lieutenant
and, as heretofore indicated, gained nothing by the
Kaplan Report or any resolution implementing it.

“IT WAS A grand opinion, and one which means a better
civil service,

‘The Metropolitan Problem and
American Ideas, by Luther Halsey
Gulick, 166 pages, Alfred A
Knopf, Inc. $3.95.

Few people know more about
the headaches of running cities,
and New York City in particular, |
than Luther Halsey Gulick who |
was New York City’s first City)
Administrator (1954-56) and is
generally recognized as the dean
of all City Administrators. Now
Mr. Gulick has put down some of
his thoughts about the problems
of big cities and their solutions.
In essence, he would like to see
bigger regions served by the same
government for most purposes and
recommends particularly large
metropolitan regions crossing city
and state lines. For this, he points
to the experience in Toronto,
Atlanta and Baton Rouge and re-
commends a tri-state metropolitan
region for the City, a plan which
both the City Administrator's
office and the Mayor seem to
favor. Such a region would handle
Problems like transportation,
water supply, pest control, pollu-
tion and iting mosquitos and
other elements that don’t know
about political waters.

Mr. Gulick believes that “the
crisis of our cities is apparent
everywhere" and points to traffic
congestion, spreading siums,
noise, inadequate power
and sew disposal, and ultimate-
ly the flight of the middle classes.
His solution would impose a new
echelon of government between
the city and state. His presenta-
tion is so convincing that t
reader may expect to live to see
the day

Wants Group Auto

Insurance Plan
Editor, The Leader:

At @ recent meeting of the Met-
ropolitan Division of Employment
chapter of the Civil Service Em-
ployees Association, a resolution
for group auto insurance was
adopted unanimously and forward-
ed to the CSEA resolutions com-
mittee.

‘The same resolution was submit-
ted to and approved by the reso-
lutions committee Inst year, but
to date we are not aware of any
action taken by the Association
to bring this about.

New facts have been submitted
to the resolutions committee

based on a special report tn Con-
sumer Report of July, 1962, It ts
claimed that rough but conser-
vative estimate suggests that in-
surance rates could be reduced by
at least 15% if policies were sold
on a group rather than on an
individual basis. The Consumer
Report further states that some
companies Inst year “also at~
tempted a modest but significant
step in this direction,” They filed,
in many states, new franchise rate
schedules providing substantial
discounts for policies covering cars
owned by groups of merchants
franchised as part of a chain,
such as the locally owned restaur-
ants featuring the Howard John-
gon trademark or local grocery

stores with IGA franchises, It
further states that the insurance
companies themselves might not
be adverse to accept group auto-
mobile insurance.

It is, therefore, suggested that
the Civil Service Employees’ As-
sociation take immediate steps to
secure automobile group insurance
for its members in order to secure
for them the substantial discounts
obtainable under group coverage.

University of New York.

‘The University is a supervisory and examining,
rather than a teaching institution; through its
Board of Regents and its executive and subordi-
nate officers it has supervision over the State’s en-
tire system of public elementary, secondary and
higher education including the education and
licensing for practice in the professions.

‘The State University of New York was estab-
lished in 1948 as a corporate entity in the State
Education Department under the Board of Re-
gents. The University is governed by a Board of
Trustees, appointed by the Governor, by and with
the advice and consent of the Senate. The Board
of Trustees appoints its own officers, the president
and central administrative staff,

Thus, through these two institutions, the De-
partment and its employces serve the educational

needs of the more than sixteen million residents
of the State,

tion of Blue Cross-Blue Shield and Major Medical
+ «« provides security and protection against hos-
pital and medical costs — not only for most of
the employees of the Education Department but
for the majority of all State employees as well.

Confidence in the security offered by the
STATEWIDE PLAN by an overwhelming num-
ber of State employees who subscribe to it, reflects
the ability of the plan to provide realistic benefits
when they are needed.

‘THE STATEWIDE PLAN provides the most
liberal benefits at the lowest possible cost for
state employees, active and retired, Also impor-
tant is the fact that the Plan travels with you

NOW! FOR THE FIRST TIME,

EVEN THE MOST ADVANCED STEREO-CONTROL AMPLIFIER
Even if the new Fisher X-101-C had an entirely conventional arrangement of controls, T
it would still be by far the most advanced single-chassis integrated stereo control-
amplifier in its power class. That much is assured by its performance, Its Hinged e

Control Cover, however, makes it the first genuine al imily amplifier in high fidelity
history.

For the audiophile members of the family, the X-101-C incorporates comprehensive
controls of the utmost versatility, But for immediate enjoyment of stereo by even
the least technically inclined members of the family, only the ‘must’ controls (Program
Selector, Stereo/Mono Switch and Volume Control) are in view. The other controls—
those that are not absolutely essential for instant use of the amplifier—are concealed
behind an attractive hinged cover The result is the most uncluttered appearance and
the most functional operation ever achieved in a stereo component—as well as the end
of all uncertainty on the part of the non-technical music lover.

The X-101-C is rated at 60 watts IHPM Music Power (30 watts per channel) and features
several important innovations in addition to its Hinged Control Cover. The exclusive
Fisher Tape-Play System, for example, permits full use of all controls during tape
Playback and yet retains the convenience of monitoring while recording. A front-panel
jack is available for the connection of headphones, and a special switch can silence the
main speakers while the headphones are in use. A revolutionary new circuit develop-
—_ Fears direct connection of a center-channel speaker without using an additional
amplifier!

| CORRECTION CORNER

By CHARLES LAMB
(The views expressed in this column are those of the writer and
do not necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper or of
organization),

A New Breed of Troopers
A NEW BREED OF state troopers went into the incubator recently
at Albany and Oneonta State Universities. They will be “hatched” in
September, The future troopers will be instructed in procedures used

in quelling riots, report writing, fingerprinting, surveillance, inter-|
viewing and ever so many other subjects, too numerous to mention |
here. Deputy Superintendent John McGuire stressed that conduct on

and off duty must be “legal, moral and ethical,” if one is to attain
a sense of pride and dedication in their new profession. He mentioned

the excellent salaries of $5,460 to $7,350 plus seniority increments, |

Statistical data of the 400 new recruits showed 122 had some college

training, 14 had degrees, 238 are married, average age 24 years, height |

8° 10'5", weight 170 pounds.

SOME 25 YEARS ago when college education was not as common
as today, statistics from the Central Guard School for Correction
Officers showed a very similar background of 440 recruits. College
training 77, 22 had degrees, high school graduation 205, married 275,
average age 28, height 5’ 10%", weight 165 pounds, police experience
‘74, LQ. 111,
to produce such comparisons today with the Correction Officer's
salary some $700 below the State Police. It seems to the writer that an
overall look should be given to the uniform personnel of Correction
in terms of salary, pension, and uniforms, in order to place our re-
cruitment into its proper prospective with other law enforcement
agencies

WHAT EVER happened to the 3714 work week for institutional
clerical employees? I thought the Grievance Board was mandated to
immediate hearings in these cases.

A $50,000 GRANT WAS given to the International Association
of Chiefs of Police by the Federal Government to develop standard
policies for handling law breakers. The organization will develop a
police training curriculum available to all police departments. Maybe
Correction Officers could apply for money to set up training academies

for them. Many law enforcement agencies top entrance salaries pay |

more than top salaries of sergeants in State Correction.

|
EVEN STATE AND Federal Judges go to school these days. Many

are found in attendance at the Appellate Judicial Seminar at New
York University School of Law.

A PRECEDENT HAS recently been set in the Court of Appeals.
The Court ruled that a defendant who knowingly and voluntarily
pleaded guilty, may not attack the judgement of conviction by coram
nobis (Correction of Sentence) or other post conviction remedies on
the ground that he had been coerced into making a confession and
that the existence of such confession induced him to enter the plea
of guilty. If defendant desires to contest the yoluntariness of his

confession he must do so by pleading not guilty and then raise the |

point upon the trial. He may not plead guilty and then years later
at a time when the prosecution is perhaps unable to prove its case
assert this alleged constitutional violation. “The issue as to whether
the confession was illegally obtained is waived by the guilty plea,”

NEW YORK CITY patrolmen now receive thelr two-hour over-
time checks separated from their regular pay checks, Sounds like
another gimmick,

1 BELIEVE ALL uniform employee groups should consider re-
Questing higher allowance for uniforms and their maintenance, Most
of these allowances now run $75 to $125 a year, Purchase and main-
tenance of uniform shirts alone run into the neighborhood of $85 per
year. Reporters in New York tried to find electricians moonlighting
in their 30 hour week. They did not find even one. The cause of moon~
lighting Is low pay. You won't find any man making a decent wage,
working at two jobs.

AT THE REQUEST of The Leader, New York City Correction is!

carry wapons off duty, The Department realizes that this will en-

Seafaring Carpenter

Leads Suffolk CSEA
Along Path to Growth

(From Leader Correspondent)

ISLIP, July 30—A carpenter by trade, a seafaring man by by experience and a proven
fast-moving employee organizer is Thomas B. Dobbs, the recently-elected president of the
Suffolk Chapter, Civil Service Employees Association.

Dobbs, a 36-year-old worker
in the town of Islip Maintenance
Department, shot up to the top
of the 3,000-member Suffolk
Chapter in only about two years
from the time he joined the CSEA.
His first move was to reactivate
the Town of Islip chapter, which
had fallen to about 14 members.
Today it has 200 members in the
Town Hall unit and 140 members
in the Highway Department unit

Sought Help, Got It

Dobbs’ accomplishments for Is-
lip workers were equally as start-
ling, After becoming president of
the new Islip units, Dobbs went
to see town officials, headed by
Supervisor Thomas Harwood
Dobbs found a sympathetic ear in
Harwood, who himself was an old-
time member of the CSEA from
his service days in the town high-
way department

“We had wonderful help from
the town board,” said Dobbs. |

In the first year, recalls Dobbs,
his unit won a $325-a-year across |
the board raise, regular incre-
ments, payroll deduction of due:
increased vacation time, three
days of personal leave, and annual
salary increments for town
highway workers |

The Climb Up

Dobbs was soon elected a fourth
vice president of the county chap-
ter and several weeks ago Jumped
to the presidency of the county

organization. One of his first jobs
has been to streamline his or-
ganization with a series of action-
making committees.

The Sailor

When Dobbs is not working at
his job, or taking care of his
CSEA activities, he is busy with
his family, wife Barbara and their
four boys, John 13, Thomas A. 12,
and twins, Keith and Kevin 10.
He also has a keen interest in the
Allied Nautical Cadets, a youth
organization serving Nassau, Suf-
folk and Queens Counties

Dobbs, who spent six years in
the US. Navy in World War It
and six years in the Coast Guard

in the Korean conflict, is the
executive officer of the Suffolk
division, which has 1,500 boys

active in the unit. “It teaches the
boys to be self-reliant, he said,
“I'm Interested because I think
we have an obligation to do some-
thing for our youth.”

Dobbs, who learned his car-
pentry from his grandfather many
years ago, started the Islip unit,

he says, because “I'd done a lot}

of thinking about what organiza-
tion could best represent
