CSEA Stiffens Opposition
To Parking Fee; Actions
, Are Strongly Supported
ALBANY — At Leader presstime, new action by the State administration to enforce
its parking fee program was met by stiffened opposition on statewide and local levels of
the Civil Service Employees Assn.
More than 1,000 delegates of the 200,000-member CSEA, voting at their annual meet-
fing in Rochester, have unanim~
@usly passed o resolution reaf-
firming the union's position that
the parking fee should be re-
solnded and pledging that CSEA
will take any action deemed nec-
essary to see that this happens,
Spearheading the delegates’
Mealstance to the parking fee was
wtatewide first vice-president
Thomas McDonough, also pres-
ident of the militant Albany
Motor Vehicles chapter of CSEA,
who asked the delegates to ap-
Drove his request that his chap-

action to protest the “unilater-

was also passed unanimously by

“This ts not only personal dis-
crimination,” sald Whitney,
“since other people were belng

it is also direct violation of the

State Wage Of $6,500
ROCHESTER — Delegates at the annual meting here
last week of the Civil Service Employees Assn. mandated its
leadership to fight for a 10-percent salary increase in 1973,
as well as a 20-year retirement plan and a minimum state
wage of $6,500.
Tt was the most heavily at-
tended session in the organi-
zation's history — and the most
heated.
Delegates not only threw down
the gauntlet to two unions, chal-
longing the Employees Associ-
ation for representation rights,
but alsd vowed to use every
redource of the 200,000-member
organization to push its goals
with the Legislature and the
State Administration.
The CSEA represents the ma-
jority of State employees through
four bargaining units. While CS-
EA does not represent the man-
agement-confidential unit at this
moment, approval was given to
work on behalf of these employ-
ees to insure that they gain
any new benefits that are nego-
tiated for other State workers,
Restructuring
A major event of the con-
vention was aotion on several
amendments to the constitution
and by-laws of the Employees
Association, which will bring
sweeping changes in the oper-
ation of the organization. Chief
among these 1s decentralization
in such areas as public rela~
tons, fled work, and local of-
ficea in key areas throughout the
State to provide many of the
services that are now available
at only the Albany headquarters.
Another major change is the
election of regional presidents
and creation of the office of ex-
scutive vice-president, The ex-
ecutive vice-president would be
the successor to the president
in the event that the president,
for any reason, either leaves or
4s not available to perform the
functions of the office.

DOT Aide Arrested Over
Parking Lot Fee Dispute
ALBANY — The latest clash in the struggle between the Civil Service Employees
who was subsequently charged
with reckless endangerment and
second-degree asault,
Early last week, Michael T.
Zotta, a DOT employee in Bulld-
ing 12 at the State Campus, was
arrested by the Capital Buildings
Police on the grounds that he
had driven his car into a police
officer, causing him injury. A
spokesman for CSEA said that
staff members and other State
employees who were on the scene
saw the confrontation and main-
tained that the car was creep-
ing into the lot at “about three
miles an hour” and that “no
officer was struck in any way.”
“In fact,” said John Corcoran,
CSEA regional field supervisor
who was present, “when Zotta
stopped his car, he was forcibly
pulled from the vehicle, as was
his passenger, who was mind-
ing his own business.”
Zotta was arraigned at Albany
Police court and CSEA provid-
ed legal representation, Because
second-degree assault is as
felony, the case must be heard
before a grand jury.
Scare Tactics
“This obvious attempt by the
State to scare State employees
into buying permits,” said Cor-
coran, “by using one man as an
example, is really carrying things
too far.”
The State Department of Civil
Service last week opened 14 titles
for promotional exams, with an
application deadline of Oct. 30,
All exams will be held Dec. 9.
Tnterdepartmental exams are
chief real estate appraiser (34-
989), senio- real estate appraiser
(34-566), principal real estate
appraiser (34-567), senior biosta-
tistician, (34-981), senior statis-
telan (34-982), senior economist
series (34-977) and research an-
alyst series (34-970).
Open to employees of the De-
partment of Agriculture and
Markets are exams for senior
food inspector (34-984), super-
vising food inspector (34-985),
senior meat Inspector (34-986),
supervising meat inspector (34~
987) and chief meat inspector
(34-988).
In the Commerce Department,
an exam for senior international
trade consultant (34-951) is of-
fered,
Other attempts of alleged har-
assment were also reported by
other CSEA members and staff
employees who had ben station-
ed at the State Campus for the
last few weeks, Several reports
were received by CSEA that
State employees with physical
disabilities who are normally
dropped off at their places of
employment, were not allowed
onte the campus because the
cars delivering them did not dis-
play the permit sticker.
“In one case,” # CSEA spokes-
man said, “a man with a heart
condition, whose wife normal-
ly drops him off tn fornt of his
building, was forced to walk all
the way in from Western Ave. (a
city street on the periphery of
the Campus) because his wife's
car didn’t sport a sticker —
which wasn't even required
since she doesn’t park on the
Campus.”
Attempt To Harass
Also last week, according to
State Public Employment Rela-
office, currently on duty on the
State Campus “to inform the
employees of their rights,” a
heavy-duty truck and the grass-
cutting machine from the Office
of General Services “stationed
themselves in front of and be-
hind our mobile office with the
engines running loudly, at the

Assn. and the State of New York over the imposition of a $5 monthly parking fee involves
the arrest of a Department of Transportation worker who was not displaying the permit
sticker being sold to State employees by the State on the Albany campus and elsewhere, and
time that we were making an-
nouncements on the public ad-
dress system of our office, ob-
viously to drown out our state-
ments. As soon as we left, they
left. ‘This is certainly an obvious
attempt to harass CSEA.”
Meanwhile, CSEA was waiting
for a return of the State's an-
swer to the union's lawsuit filed
with the State Supreme Court
against Governor Rockefeller and
other top State officials. A form~-
al hearing of CSEA’s improper
practice charge filed with the
State Public Employment Rela-
tions Board is scheduled for this
week and the final stage of bind-
ing arbitration in the grievance
between CSEA and the State
filed with the Office of Em-
Ployee Relations is awaiting
selection of a mutually-agree-
able arbitor.
It was also learned last Fri-
day that OGS trucks had started
towing a few “token” vehicles
from parking lots on the State
Campus.
Tow Exempt Car
A spokesman for CSEA sald,
“As \t turned out, they removed
a total of two cars—one of which
was exempt because the driver
only visits the Campus twice
® month. CSEA prevented the
towing of a third car and we
seen that the two cars were re-
turned to thelr owners This ts
just a continuation of the State’s
seare-tactics to force State work-
ers to buy the parking permits.
The people who are continuing
the boycott of the permits are
to be commended for their de-
termination and support of CS-
EA's position that this fee ts an
out-and-out violation of the
agreement between CSEA and the
Btate and the administration's
refusal to negotiate on this sub-
ject must not be condoned.
“By refusing to buy these per-
mits, employees can lend much-
needed psychological support two
CSEA's legal batties and griev-
ance proceeding,” the spokes-
man sald.
“The State has obviously timed
this token towing just before the
October permits go on sale, in
the hope that those who have
been holding out will be badgered
Into shelling out their money so
thelr cars won't be towed away,”
the union spokesman continued,
“CSEA chapters have offered to

and improper practices for PERB,
and CSEA Attorney James D

While admitting that the Tay-
lor Law, governing public em-
Dloyees, was “not perfect.” Dr
Helsby defended the statute in
noting that under the Taylor
Law New York State had leas
than one-fifth of the national
average of time lost by strikes
and work stoppages.
‘He added that if changes were
to be made they might come in
ene or two specific areas—the
legalization of public employee
strikes, as now permitted in threr
states—and/or an amendment
requiring binding and compul-
sory arbitration, as is now the
ease for at least police and fire-
men in some six states In the

BUFFALO — Organizational
plans for the coming year were
discussed by 85 delegates attend-

Employees Asan.
Frederick Huber, president of
the chapter that represents state

Joseph Dunn, audit committes
chairman, reported the treas-
urer’s books for 1971-72 had been

practices,
Following Dr. Helsby's last
point, Klein noted that all em-
ployee grievances were not neces-
sarily improper practices, al-
though many were. He defined
aa the two most significant sec-
tions the requirement that em-
ployers effect no reprisals against
employees for bona fide anion
activities, and the obligation to
negotiate in good faith. At the
same time Klein noted the dif-
ficulties met in attempting to
define whether or not a given
act constituted good faith bar-
gaining.

Uphold Rule On Resignations In Writing
(Special to The Leader)
ALBANY — The summary
dismissal of Leroy Stucker, a
senior child care worker at
the Goshen Annex, has been
overturned through the efforts
of the Civil Service Employees
Assn.
Stucker left his Job and turn-
ed in his keys during working
hours on May 2, 1972, but re-
turned to work the following day
= his regular time.
Norman Catlett, superintend-
ent of the Goshen Annex, insist-
ed that Stucker had resigned and
all of Stucker’s civil service
Tights and benefits had ceased
sa of May 3, 1972,
Btucker approached Felice
Amodio, CSEA field representa-
tive, for aid in presenting his
case.
A bearing with the State Of-
held on Sept. 8, 1972, at which
CSEA collective bargaining spe-
clalist Paul Burch contended that
Stucker nefther abandoned his
position nor resigned, in accord-
ance with the rules of the Civil
Service Commission.
“According to Civil Service
Law,,” Burch said, “every resig-
nation must be tn writing, The
only exception would be if an
employee did not report to work
for ten working days without au-
thorization. Neither of these con-
ditions applied to Stucker.”
Civil Service Law also states
that a person in » classified civil
service position in the competi-
tive class cannot be dismissed
or disciplined until a hearing has
been held to prove specific
charges. Catlett had preferred
no such charges against Stucker.
Burch said thet as a result
of the CSEA hearing with OER
all civil service rights and bene-
fits were restored to Stucker re-
toractive to May 3, 1972.

Calls For Arbitration In Public
Employee Impasses With State
Arvid Anderson, chairman
of the New York City Office
of Collective Bargaining, tes-
tified before a State Senate
committee last week that he
favors arbitration as a
means of settling contract
disputes where the right of
public employees to strike is
prohibited,
Anderson was called for testi-
mony in Albany Sept. 22 before
the Senate Standing Committee
on Labor in Industry, which is
conducting hearings on a pro-
posed amendment to the civil
service law which would provide
for the arbitration of disputes
between public employers and
firefighters and policemen in
New York State. (New York City

Btressing the importance of
neutrality in any disputes settie-

served that impartial arbitration
“seems even more compelling”
in New York State, where under
the Taylor Law all public em-
Ployees are denied the right to
strike. Contract impasses go to
the State Legislature, in effect
the employer, for final decision.
“Collective bargaining is a two~
way street. If the final decision
is tn the hands of one party,
the employer, it is no longer a
two-way street,” he sald.
Anderson noted that recent
amendments to the New York
City Collective Bargaining Law
providing for finality in disputes
by means of impartial and bind-
ing impasse procedures “encour-
age rather than discourage col-
lective bargaining and work to
the benefit of both the City and
the union.” Also, that arbitration

publie employee disputes over
now the law and working in
Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsyl-
vania, Wyoming, Rhode Island
and South Dakota,
In his analysis of the proposed
law, Anderson opposed limiting
the decision of the new State
Arbitration Board to choosing
among the employer's last offer,
the employees’ last offer or the
rejected recommendations of a
fact-finding board, He suggested
that the impartial arbitrators be
free to make their own recom-
mendations, taking into account
all of the foregoing plus other
considerations, most importantly
the matter of meeting the
standards set forth in the stat-
ute.
Anderson also suggested that
the statute conferring finality
upon the arbitration award “be
reconciled with those provisions
of the Taylor Law which require
that any provision of a collective
bargaining agreement requiring
legislative approval cannot go
into effect until such legislative
approval is obtained.” ‘The
amended New York City Collec-
tive Bargaining Law, he said,
explicitly specifies that any final
and binding impasse decision in-
volving the enactment of a law
cannot be implemented until
such law is enacted. This pro-
cedure defers to the legislative
and executive authority to bud-
get and to tax. Furthermore, tn
order to limit the right of the
parties to choose a neutral, An-
derson said, persons serving as
arbitrators should not be pre-
cluded in the future from acting
as mediators or fact-finders as
proposed in the bill.
In conclusion, the chairman of
the Office of Collective Bargain-
ing stated that “while supporting
arbitration of police and fire
disputes the procedure provides
no guarantee against strikes in
the protective services if enacted.
Arbitration ts not a panacea but
it fs a workable alternative to
the strike as a means of impar-
tial finality which ts now lack-
ing in the Taylor Law.”

Sensible Goals
ELEGATES to the annual convention of the 200,000-
member Civil Service Employees Assn. set reasonable
goals in the areas of salary and pensions for state workers
— goals that are more than justified by today’s economic
situation.
Public employees have, in a way, suffered from infla-
tion more than workers in any other employment sector.
The problem ts compounded by wage contracts that gov-
ernment keeps inflexible, thus frustrating legitimate renego-
tiations when prices continue to soar over a long period of
time.
‘The CSEA goal of a 10-percent raise 1s a realistic one.
No matter what government says, the Employees Associ-
ation demand for half-pay retirement after 20 years of service
1s equally justified. The organization has every right to con-
tinue its insistence that civil servants are entitled to the
same retirement plan that the State Legislature so smoothly
promoted for itself.
Naturally, the CSEA legislative program is sweeping
in scope, and among the many areas where it will continue
to concern itself ts protection of the Merit System.
Civil servants everywhere should follow with great in-
terest the efforts to attain these and other benefits during
the coming months. Their goals are goals that are meaning-
ful to all public employees.
Questions
and
Answers
Q. I just got a job as a wait-
ress and started reporting my
tips for social security credit,
Does my employer pay an equal
amount to social security also?
A. No. Your employer pays
only his share on the wages he
pays you. Only you pay social
security contributions on your
tips.
Q. My son is 34 now and he's
been mentally retarded since
birth, He has never worked.
Could he get monthly social se-
curity checks?
A. Children disabled sinee be-
fore age 18 may get social se~
curity benefits if a working par-
ent who has worked long enough
under social security dies or
becomes eligible for disability
or retirement benefits,
Q. I take care of a woman's
children in ber home Monday to
Friday tor $25 a week. She does-
any soclal security on
my wages or deduct anything
from my weekly checks. I'm not
yet ready to retire, but 1 want

work, Is there anything 1
can do?
A. Call any social security of-
fice as soon as possible. We'll

ty credit for your work.

¢lal security retirement checks

A, You'll still get your checks,
Since you receive benefits based
up to nearly $5,000, can I re-
ceive any monthly cash payments

A. Yes. No matter how much

less, nor perform substantial work

Court the political balance of
four Republicans and three
Democrats. As part of the agree-
ment, both parties would nomin-
ate the same three candidates,
thereby assuring thetr election.
Coattall Politics
However, earlier this year
when Joseph Crangle of Buffalo
succeeded John Burns as Demo-
eratic State Chairman, he de-
cided not to go through with
this arrangement, hoping that
the Democrats, running without
Republican support, would win
all three vacancies. This deci-
sion was motivated in part by
the fact that President Nixon
failed to carry the State when
he ran for President against
John FP, Kennedy in 1960 and
failed again to carry the State
in 1968, tn his race against Hu-
bert Humphrey. In the heady
moments after becoming State
Chairman, Crangle moved on
the theory that President Nixon
would fall again in 1972, and
that the Democratic presidential
standard bearer would carry
along with him the three Memo-
crats running for the Court of
Appeals.
However, the best laid plans
of men and politicians often go
awry, and what seemed a cer-
tainty last spring is now shroud-
ed in uncertainty. The most per-
ceptive of political observers
doubt that Senator McGovern
will carry New York in Novem-
ber, « circumstance that may
jeopardize the campaign of the
Democratic candidates for the
Court of Appeals.
The Crangle master plan also
went awry when & woman en-
tered the picture. Family Court
Judge Nanette Dembitz received
more than 25 percent of the
delegate vote at the judicial
nominating convention, enough
to give her the privilege of run-
ning in the Democratic primary
without going through the com-
plex procedure of gathering aig-
natures on nominating petitions.
In the primary against three
opponents, Judge Dembitz was
among those who won the Dem-
ocratic Party nomination
First Woman Candidate
Judge Dembitz, the first wo-
man candidate ever to run for
Statewide office in New York,
and her vote whether she wins
or loses, will become a yardstick
against which woman candi-
dates will be measured in the
future, Of all the seven candi-
dates, Judge Dembitz was the
only one rated not qualified by
the State Bar Association. This
rating has necessarily roused a
storm of controversy, particu-
larly among many women who
feel that the Bar rating was
shaped by what they regard as
male chauvinist pressures.
In any event, political leaders
will have a field day analyzing
the results in the Court of Ap-

Law & You
By RICHARD GABA
Mr. Gaba ts a member of the firm of White, Walsh and Gaba,
P.C., and chairman of the Nassag County Bar Association Labor
Law Committee.
Teacher Probationary Period
A teacher employed by the Yorktown Central School
District No. 2 to instruct children tn grades one through
six was terminated without a hearing. She commenced a
special proceeding pursuant to Article 78 of the New York
Civil Practice Law and Rules for ‘he purpose of having the
Supreme Court declare that her dismissal without the neces-
sary hearings was illegal.
‘The petitioner was appointed »s a teacher by the Board
of Education on Sept. 1, 1968 fo: . probationary period of
three years. She successfully cou: eted her first two years
of teaching—the 1968-69 and !® 70 school years. During
her third school year, 1970-71, st ;equested and was granted
a maternity leave, to become eff: ‘ive May 1, 1971. This left
only two months remaining for to complete her three-
year probationary period.
On March 30, 1971, the Sup
fled the teacher by mail, “Ap;

The court pointed out that conditions cannot be at-
tached which survive the compietion of the probationary
period, but In this case the petitioner never completed the
probationary period, The so-called condition in this case,
the completion of the probationary period, is nothing more
than a requirement of Section 3012 of the Education Law,
. . .
THIS CASE 1s not in conflict with the Weinbrown case,
28 N.Y, 2d 474, which the New York Court of Appeals held
that an offer of appointment to tenure prior to the expira-
tion of the probationary period was permitted under Section
3012. In this case there was no offer of tenure prior to the
three years nor any acceptance The record ts barren of
any facts which would indicate when the petitioner planned
to return to school. It was mere speculation as to when she
would complete her probationary period, and therefore im-
possible to compute the sixty-day notice period prior to the
completion of the probationary period.

to arrive at the following rec-

for negotiations with the State,
as well as to eliminate exist-

In order to assure that the
latest information available
‘with respect to salary and wage
levels received consderation,
this Committee held its last
meeting on the morning of
Sept. 18 for the purpose of
finalizing this report to the
Delegates.
‘That the present State sal-
ary schedule, which became

vised to incorporate the fol-

(b) To guarantee the re-
moval of salary inequities re-
sulting from past flat dollar
minimum adjustments, upon
implementation of this newly
negotiated schedule, by mak-
ing addition! adjustments, ss
required, based on an employ-
ee's length of service in grade,
on an individual basis.
(eo) A guarantee that all
increments will be granted
as earned and will neither be
deleted nor diminished as
® result of any salary ad-
Justments negotiated in this or

the New York-Northeastern
New Jersey Price Index cov-
ering all items (1967-100),

Bureau of Labor Statistics,
US. Department of Labor. We
recommend that the escala~
tor clause be computed on in-
dex-salary relationships using
the index for the month dur-
ing which our contract com-
mences as the base index. Ad-
Justmenta should be made in
each employee's salary dur-
ing the payroll period, the
first day of which 1s closest to

salary for all State employ-
ees who have completed 26 bi-
weekly payroll periods i full

employees with one or more
years of continued service
whose employment is termin-
sted because of the abolition
of positions as follows, in ad-
dition to any accrued yaoa~
tion pay that may be owing
to the employees:
One year through five years
4 weeks pay
Six years through ten years
—8 weeks pay
Eleven years or more—12
weeks pay
Also provide that an em-
Ployee upon retirement shall
be granted severance pay on
the basis of one day of sev-
erance pay for each day of
unused sick leave accumula-
tion, Severance pay shall be
computed on the basis of work
days rather than calendar
days.
Negotiate an agreement
that the State will negotiate
achievement, additional pay
for variations in dollar yolume

County
Meeting
(Continued from Page 3)
Aa to reprisal cases, he clari-
fied for the county workers four
questions, each of which he said
the employee must prove te
PERB's satisfaction in order te
win a charge of reprisal:
* Was the employee on bona
fide union business?
© Did the employer know this?
* Did the employer show ani-
mus against the employee?
* Did the employer take his
action because of the activity?
Peatherstonhaugh underlined
particularly the difficulty in at-
tempting to prove an improper
labor parctice, and warned that
employees “must exercise great
care and garner the needed evid-
ence” in order to make such »
charge stick against manage-
ment, He called upon the Coun-
ty members to file charges care-
fully and with dispatch—warn-
ing — letting matters de-

settlement between CSEA and the New York Thruway Authority covering professional, sel-
entific and technical employees.
Ballots first sent out in July
were voided when CSEA can-

- FILE SUIT AGAINST DOT ON WORK SHIFTS
ROCHESTER — Tim Mc-
Inerney, Department of
Transportation representative
to the Civil Service Employ-
ees Assn. Board of Directors,
told departmental representatives
during s meeting here prior to
the statewide CSEA Delegates
Meeting that a lawsult had been
filed against the State concern-
ing work shifts.
Piled on behalf of Kent H
Pickens, Jan Francis Zeb and
Joseph Cervone against Ray-
mond T. Schuler as commission-
@ of the Department, the suit
sceks “to negate change in work
shift and for permanent in-
Junction and to restrain the de-
fendants (the Department)
from promulgating this or simil-~
ar rules in violation of the
Civil Service Law.”
Primarily the sult seeks re-
dress on two points:
© To reinstate the hours of
employment for all in the De-
partment of Transportation nas
they existed prior to May 1971
© That the Department may
not modify the work week of
the employes of DOT or evade
requesta for payment of over-
time as set forth in the Civil
Service Law, Section 134 and
subtitle (c) of the Official Com-
pilation Codes,
Cites Law
In building its case, the law-
sult cites Civil Service Law,
Section 134, subdivision 1, in
specifying that the annual work
week shall not be more than 40
hours, and that all time work-
ed in excess of 40 hours shall
be compensated at the rate of
1% times the hourly rate.
Tt also cites Section 195,1, that
each work week stands alone.
“Once fixed, however, it must
Temain the same unless any
change is intended t be perm-
anent.”
‘The suit accuses the Depart-
ment of violating the rules by
ebanging the hours of work of
the plaintiffs, and that these
changes are not intended to be
permanent,
‘The State has 20 days in
which to respond to the suit,
which was filed Sept. 15,
Preceding the departmental
meeting, an all-day session was
held by the departmental execu-
tive commitice and top manage-
ment representatives of DOT.
14 Items On Agenda
An agenda of 14 items was
covered, as McInerney, flanked
by CSEA collective bargaining
specialists and regional repre-
sentatives, took DOT manage-

of the Department of Transportation at one of their periodic
consultations. Starting counterclockwise from the upper

DOT regions: Earl Logan, Region 6; Chester Pelega, Canals
ment to task on a number of
items,
Although the temper of the
meeting was unusually polite and
calm (compared to the norm
for these periodic DOT sessions),
the atmosphere did become heat-
ed during @ discussion on per-
sonal leave,
Responding © complaints
about some areas demanding 20
days’ notice for the granting of
personal Jeaye, DOT assistant
commissioner William Living-
ston said this was entirely with-
out his knowledge, but that it
was within the discretion of the
supervisor to turn down requests.
‘The subject then became in-
volved in “reasons for requests,"
whereupon CSEA collective bar-
gaining specialist Joseph Reedy
pointed out that reasons were
not required according to the
agreement, and Livingston said,
“Then grieve it.”
During all-day session of DOT executive committee, sand-
wiches were brought in so members could fully dispose of
the long agenda, before the departmental meeting the same
evening. Shown in a quick conference are, from left, Wil-
liam Lawrence, committee chairman Tim McInerney and
Joseph McDermott.

Discussion was also held on:
© Job vacancies: 48 appoint-

vacancies.
© Bumping: New system to be
put into effect Oct, 1 for all
Right-of-Way people in all DOT.

In one scene of biting humor
that sometimes emerges in such
union-management confranta-
tions, Livingston turned down a
request by McInerney to sup-
ply a seniority list for Right-
of-Way employees, Later, when
Livingston requested a list of

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, September 26, 1972
Discussing changes proposed in CSEA structure at Central Conference presidents’ meet-
ing are, from left, Stanley Yaney, Binghamaton chapter president; Dorothy Moses, Wil-
lard State Hospital chapter president; Floyd Peashey, Central Conference president; A.
Victor Costa, statewide second vice-president and chairman of the Committee to Re-
structure CSEA, and Helene Callahan, Conference treasurer.
Central Conference Hears
Costa On Restructuring
(From Leader Correspondent)
SYRACUSE — A purchasing agent “can realize substantial savings for the Associ-
ation to more than justify the position,” the chiarman of the Committee to Restructure
CSEA told a preconvention meeting of Central Conference presidents.
A. Victor Costa, second vice-president of the Civil Service Employees Assn,, made the
comment in urging the prest-
dents to support the commit-
tee's 52-point “Phase III (Part
1)” restructuring proposals, This
deals with “management, organt-
zation and communications” of
CSEA,
He also alerted the 40 preal-
dents and other chapter repre-
sentatives at the meeting that
the annual CSEA meeting in
Rochester is “going to be a high-
ly controversial one,” because of
the vote due on the first two
phases of the restructuring com-
mittee's report.
‘The first phases have gone
through a “first reading” and
won the approval of delegates
at previous CSEA Delegates
Meetings. Approval after the
“second reading” in Rochester
would put the changes into the
CSEA Constitution and By-Laws,
he said.
Costa spent much of the time
at the Syracuse meeting on
Phases I and I of the commit-
tee’s proposals.
On Phase II, he cited prin-
elpally the need to make “only
one person — namely o control-
ler — responsible for the money
of (hit Association,” and the
need for a purchasing agent,
Booklets on Phase [I were
given all those attending the
meeting.
A preface to the third report
notes that Phase U1 “deals with
al eta of Headquarters, man-
agement, organization, commu-

nication, fiscal, personnel and
operation
Part 2 of Phase DT will deal
with fleld services.
Costa said the committee will
ask delegates in Rochester to
extend the restructuring com-
mittee’s life for six months be-
yond next March, when it
acheduled to be discharged. The
extension, Costa explained, would
be “only for the reason to see
that the mandated proposals ap-
proved by the delegates be im-
plemented.”
He sald he has refused to defer
any of the proposals, for exam~
ple, for regional offices.
“My answer was ‘No. There
will be no changes on any pro-
posal the delegates have acted
on,'” Costa sald.

BUFFALO — George H.
Clark, president of the Erie
chapter of the Civil Service

named @& represent Erie Coun-
ty’s 10,000 workers in the Coun~
ty's United Pund campaign,
“The United Fund fills a need

than any other drive," Clark
ud In accepting the designation,
He urged fellow County em-
Ployees to include United Pund
unit presidents in rallies and
meetings and to discuss United
Pund problems with them,
“Together, management and
labor, we can achieve success in
ployees were alded by the United
On the regional offices pro-
posal (six in the state), Costa
declared: “Regional offices are
the future of CSEA, Albany alone
can not solve the problema of
this organization. They are too
big, too diversified. They must
be solved at the local and reg-
fonal levels.” This statement was
spplauded by those at the Syra-
cuse meeting.

about not recelving The Leader,

LI. Conference Prepares
For Battle With Unions
And Hostile Politicans
ISLIP — Delegates to a meeting of the Long Island Con-
ference of the Civil Service Employees Assn. on Sept. 16 rolled
up their sleeves and prepared battle plans against unions
trying to raid the CSEA and politicians, both state and local,
who are unfriendly towards civil
service goals.
George Koch, Conference pres-
ident, opened the meeting by tell-
ing the state and county chap-
ter delegates attending the ses-
sion: “We've got our work cut
out for us for the next year, and
it 1s going to take the efforts
of every CSEA member available
to put the unions and the poll-
ticlans in their place.”
Ben Porter, president of the
host chapter, Suffolk County,
told the delegates that, “We
must put these do-nothing un-
fons in thelr place even more
firmly than we did the last
time around, When that ts over,”
he said, “I think we can start
thinking about throwing out a
few challenges of our own.”
Porter applauded the Executive
Committee. of the CSEA Board
of Directors for its quick action
on meeting the challenge in two

Irving Flaumenbaum, president
of the Nassau County chapter,
said that county members of
CSEA would “pitch in and help
our fellow members in any way
we can, By this I mean prepar-
ation and distribution of effec-
tive campaign Uterature; a tel-
ephone campaign to every reach-
able employee, urging him to
vote CSEA, and any money we
can legally spend.”
Political Action
Another hot perlod of discus-
sion followed a Conference poll-
tical action report given by Jo-
seph Keppler, president of the
Central Islip chapter, Keppler
announced that a lengthy let-
ter of questions had been sent
to candidates to determine by
their responses whether or not
they were friends of civil ser-
vants. The Conference has asked
that the responses be returned
to them by Oot, 1.
Keppler said that the answers
to the questionnaire should pro-
vide good picture of # can-
didate's attitude, He added that
George Koch, Conference
president, is seen as he open-
ed the fall meeting of the
Conference held prior to
statewide CSEA convention
in Rochester.
& No response would be construed
as a negative reaction,
Joseph Gambino, president of
the Department of Transpor-
tation Region 10 chapter, point
ed out that an elected Hunt-
ington Town official had made
public statements against the
Employees Association.
“This,” he said, “shows why
we have to get politically ao~
tive. We may not beat them
the first time, but from now
on they are going to know clvil
service power is something they
are going to have to deal with.”
Julia Duffy, president of the
Pilgrim State Hospital chapter,
announced that CSA's Mental
Hygiene negotiations had been
finished, and one of the major
victories accomplished was agree-
ment by the State that tempor-
ary and provisional employees
would be removed if their names
do not appear on an eligible
st.
Ms. Duffy sald that nearly
all the major demands of the
negotiating teams were met.
