BUFFALO, May“!—Mayor Chester Kowal and the

CORRECTION CORNER

Go not necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper or of any
organization).

Thoughts While Shaving

TOO BAD IT had to take an embarrassing strike situation to
make public officials realize that an unpopular law will be disobyed
eventually, The Volstead Act was such « law, ignored and violated
by most law abiding citizens until it was abolished as unenforceable.
When a law ts ignored and violated by both the enforcer and violator,
something ts obviously wrong with the law. Delegates of C.S.B.A. have
tried for years to eradicate the Condon-Waldin Act as an instrument
with penalities too severe to enforce.

MOST CIVIL Service employee organizations haye no strike
clauses in their charters because of thelr firm belief that their em-
ployment is a dedicated field, but public employees as people need
effective machinery that serves as a just and peaceable substitute
for bargaining procedures. Overhauling of the present law to provide |
such effectiveness may be the answer our public officials are seeking |
as a deterent to strikes in public employment.

DO NOT BE SURPRISED if the Democratic state convention in
September is held at the Concord Hotel, stamping ground of the
Metro-Southern Conferences,

DIp YOU KNOW that a Correction Officer can increase his
lary quicker by serving three years in @ prison as a C.O,, then
transferring to Matteawan or Dannemora and taking promotion ex-
aminations for grade 12 and 13 and, later, taking the Sergeants
examination grade 15.

WHAT HAPPENED TO the plan of the Committee for Re-
Organization of State Government to place the Division of Parole
under the Department of Correction?

INSTITUTION EMPLOYEES will receive their first increase
under the delayed 5% raise on August 15, thereby losing one day's
portion of the raise. Other state workers increases will be included
in their August 8 checks and these checks will contain the full two
‘week portion of the raise back to July 26, 1962.

AT LAST, TWO HOSPITAL attendants assigned to Woodbourne
tm Grade 5 reallocated to Correction Officer Grade 11, Equal pay
for equal work and it only took 20 years,

STATE POLICE plan a 3-month training school at state colleges
this summer for their recruits, They will use thelr own personnel as
instructors in police acience, Rent of dormitories, class rooms and
@afeterias will cost about §20,000. A similar plan to train recruits
was used by Correction many years ago.

Rockefeller, His new term ends

In urging the Governor to dis-
approve the measure, CSEA term-
ed it as “‘ill-conceived, poorly

‘The Association said there was no

“they have been equally critical

CSEA pointed out that the legis-

‘The conclusion of a three-man
panel, which discussed "The As-

Murphy, guest speaker at the din-
ner that evening, was that through
planning and foresight, Electronic
Data Processing (EDP) systems
in state government ean accom-
plish hoped-for efficiencies and
economies without undue hard-
ships on employees.

The panel discussion, attended
by more than 100 persons, includ-
ed talks by Irving Weinstock, as-
sistant director of personnel for
the Division of Employment; Don-
ald Axelrod, chief examiner of
the administrative management
| unit, Division of the Budget, and
John Flandreau, executive assis-
tant to the Commissioner of Gen-
eral Services.

What Has Occured

Weinstock said the Division of
Employment began thinking of
EDP systems 10 years ago and by
1959 had undertaken estimates of
the impact of EDP on staffing,
which, at first, appeared to be
formidable. However, through
meetings with employees, contact
with other state agencies for help
in transferring Division of Em-
ployment personnel affected by
EDP and through other means, it
now appeared that a new EDP
system in his agency would, when
fully operative, deprive only five
tabulating machine operators of
their jobs, Weinstock said.

Mr, Axelrod said one of the
greatest dilemmas facing govern-
ment as the result of technologt-
cal advances was to realize the
potential of machines, He sald

Impact of Automation
Reported At Capital
District’s Seminar

ALBANY, May 7—The impact of automation on New York State Government and Its
employees, the dilemmas {it presents and the human factors involved were the main In-
gredients of the annual workshop of the Capital! District Conference, Civil Service Employees
Association, held last wéek in Albany,

state government now has nine
major EDP setups in operation
with 14 other agencies studying
its uses.

“Getting the necessary knowl-
edge to use this equipment is our
chief problem,” Axelrod said.
Speaking of personnel, he said the
state's annual attrition of 20 per
cent should make it possible to
have 4 policy whereby no one is
hurt by the Installation of EDP
systems.

Axelrod concluded that “greater
economies lie in widespread use
of EDP rather than by displace-
ment of personnel,”

Some “Goods” Bring Conflict

Flandreau said the essential
conflict facing government as a

| Teoult of automation involves two

goods” rather than @ “good” and
an “evil”. He said the two “goods”
are:

1. Government is obligated to
produce the most work at the
least possible cost to the people
of the state, therefore, machines
must replace people.

2. Employees have vested rights
in job, therefore, cannot be re-
placed by machines.

Plandreau said government must
arrive at a fair compromise of
the two and “New York State
government is doing just that.”

A number of things, such as job
re-training, advance planning,
and providing new Job opportu-
nities help make the transition to
EDP easier, he said.

A question and answer period
followed the panel,

‘Military Pay Increase
System Being Sought

Members of the Military Pay
Study Group are looking for some
systematic way to increase mil-
itary pay in the future.

Defense Department spokesmen
said this week that an effort will
be made to tle base pay and other
compensation such as quarters
and subsistence allowances to
some kind of iridex that will pre-
vent future pay adjustments from
being made in “fits and starts”
‘as has been done in the past.

‘This could take the form of an
escalator clause similar to that

in some labor contracts which
hike pay as the cost-of-living
goes up.

The inclusion of a Civil Service
Commission member on the ad-
visory council to the pay study
group was explained as an effort
to gain the experience of this
member who recently participated
fn similar work in the Civil Ser-
vice Commission.

The Commission member ts 0.
Glenn Stahl. Some military men
have objected to his inclusion on
the panel.

Army to Cut 475
National Guard
Units Across Country |

‘The National Guard Bureau of |
the Federal Government has an-
nounced that it plans to do away
with some 475 Army Guard units
in the 50 states.

The cutback is part of a plan |

Government Has
Continuous Filing

For Three Jobs

The Federal Aviation Agency and the Veteran's Admin-
to go into the Army under the | istration have announced open competitive filing for posi-

to reduce Reserve and Guard
strength by 58,000 and to elimin-
‘te 800 units across the country,

The First Army area, which in-
cludes New York, New Jersey and
New England, will lose 86 units.
New York will lose 28, New Jersey
17, and Connecticut 7.

10,000 Six-Monthers
Punished for Evading
Drill Obligations

The Government has punished
some 10,000 veterans who choose |

six-month reserve training pro-|

gram, instead of serving two years |

of active duty, and who have/|
failed to fulfill thelr weekly drill
obligations.

Of the number, 5,400 in the Re-
serves were called back to the
Army for a 45-day “penalty pe-
tlod,” and 5,077 men who finished
six months active duty and went
intd the National Guard and then
dodged drill were sent back to
thelr Selective Service boards
“priority inductees.”

Congress, in 1955, adopted the
eix month program with obliga-
tory reserve duty, Since that time,
some 513,000 have elected the
six-months training with signed
promises to fulfill drill obligations

in the reserve.

Invitation to Trouble

WO actions of Mayor Wagner in recent days give pause

for serious reflection. One concerns his singling out
of one City employee group for special attention and the
other relates to his statements concerning fund sources—or
lack of them—for improving wages and benefits for all
employees.

Of the several pension measures affecting City employees
that were before Governor Rockefeller, Mayor Wagner urged
passage of a special law for sanitationmen and vetoes for
bills sponsored by three other groups, including firemen, We
do not begrudge sanitatlonmen pension advancements. We
do, however, decry the fact that one group of City employees,

LETTERS

‘The Editor, Civil Service Leader,
97 Duane St,, New York 7, N.Y.

\Hits Rejection of

His Title Appeal

Editor, The Leader:

Your recent editorial criticiz-
ing the action of J, Ear) Kelly in
denying the appeal of the pro-
fessional nurses for reallocation
of Utles has struck # responsive
and sympat‘elc chord among &
small group of other professional
employees, the sanitarians,

Whe cavalier fashion in which
| we've been treated seems inered-
ible under the merit system, To
those unaware of Kelly's virtual
dictatorship, it could easily be
said, “Dt can’t happen here.” But
it can and it did!

Eight years ago we were sum-
marily advised that our promo-
tional grade titles had been abol-
ished and that the title, “Sanitar-

notable for their support of Wagner in last year’s mayoralty
campaign, was rewarded in such @ manner. Obviously this
special plea hardly fits in with Wagner’s plans for equating
retirement benefits for city employees.

Wagner's geniality to City employees needs no {llumin-

ation, However we feel that this geniality is being misused
when the Mayor answers employees groups seeking wage
increases with “good guy” platitudes. In essence, Wagner
spread his hands, told the “boys” how much he would like|
to help them, but—. The rest of his explanation was that
there just wasn't any more money available and it was even
suggested that if City employees could get the taxpayers
enthusiastic about higher taxes all problems would be solved,

Getting more revenue is the Mayor's responsibility, not
that of the civil service employee, Boldness on Wagner's
part would produce the funds, Instead, it has taken pressures,
such as the abortive teacher's strike, to get him to act. Other
employee groups have resisted the temptation.

We feel that Mayor Wagner is inviting further such
pressures, however, by this open display of favortism, refusal
to seek more revenue, and concession to the implied threat
of strike,

Vetoes Important, Too

HERE is more to a successful Legislature than passing

of desirable civil service measures, Frequently, bills
fre passed which, on close study, are found to hold potential
or obvious disadvantages for the public employee.

The Civil Service Employees Association showed its aware-
ness of this Important facet of legislative activity by press-
ing vetoes for two measures which held no good for civil
servants,

The first measure, which had been approved by both
houses of the Legislature, would have made it mandatory
for State Police to retire at age 60. CSEA struck out at this
measure on two scores: first, that it could impair the con-
stitutionally guaranteed pension rights of these employees,
and, second, that mandatory retirement at such an early
age was contrary to the thinking of both Governor Rocke-
feller and President Kennedy in this area,

A second measure would have allowed the State Retire-
ment System to loan political subdivisions pension funds
for building purposes at a lower rate of interest than could
be secured from other sources, In urging this veto, the
Employees Association pointed out that it was the duty of
the Retirement System to invest its funds, part of which
belong to the employees, to the best advantage of the em-
Ployees. Lending pension funds for less interest than could
ordinarily be received would certainly not be in the interest

of these employees,

Governor Rockefeller rightly vetoed both bills,

Social Security Questions

I became disabled in 1957, In | you attempt te work, even though

1958 I began receiving monthly
@ocial security disability benefits,
My doctor has now advised me
that I might be able to do some
ght work. Will my social security
Gisability benefits stop if I go back
to work?"

A trial work period is provided,
during which you continue to re-
ecive your disability benefits while

still disabled, ‘This period lasts
nine months. After this time, a de-
cision is made as to your ability to
engage in substantial work, If your
disability iy terminated, your ben-
efit will continue three months
after the ninth month ef work, Of
course, the trial work perlod doce

condition had improved so that he

fifteen years, had been down-
graded the equivalent of four

only group #0 affected,

| moted following in-service train-
ing, to sanitarians in the identi-
cal grade as that of career men
with twenty and thirty years ser-
vice. If this entire fiasco were not
so serious, It would be ludicrous
since after these young men have
been trained at the expense of
New York State, they quite na-
turally have no desire to remain
with an organization which haa
so little regard for their profes-
sion, Therefore, they obtain posi-
tions in other states of with pri-
vate industry whether they have a
chance for advancement, Mice
work Sf you can get it! And Kelly
has seen to & that they oan.

What terrific incentive all this
has given career sanitarians like
myself, Just think, we are start-
ing out all over again right on
par with the college boys. You've
no idea how young it makes us
feel—and lazy, too.

Double Talk

When we made our appeal,
equipped with detailed and well-
documented data, we were met
with @ barrage of diplomatic
double-talk, mostly about the
necessity for economy. We did
not ask for upward reallocation,
merely that we remain as we had
been for many years. We did won-
der, however, why Kelly, with
his eye so obviously on the budget,
instituted salry increases in his
department, including his own
salary, at the same time we got
the axe.

When we sought specific ex-
planation for his actions, we were
curtly informed that thm law re-
quired no justification from Kelly,
And so for the past eight years
the secret has remained In our
protector's heart,

Perhaps he Just doesn't like us,

LAW & YOU

By HAROLD L, KERZTED ————
was, evecanteln is a member of the New York bar

(The views expressed in this column are those of the writer and
mot necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper or of any
organization.)

Three-Quarters Pension

PERHAPS, THE most crucial issue to face an employee is whether
an injury which causes his retirement {s or it not service-connected.
‘The difference between the two is a substantial difference in the
amounts of payments which will be received. I have discussed the
differences in prior articles. It is enough for this article for me to
write that for accidental disability retirement, the service-connected
retirement, ® member receives regardless of time put in: “A pension
of three-quarters of his final average salary” (Section 63, ¢, Retire
ment and Social Security Law).

NOW LET ME get back to a most interesting case on this sub-
Ject which was in last Monday's New York Law Journal (Matter of
Kaplan v. Kennedy, N.Y.LJ., 4/30/61, p. 16). The opinion was written
by Judge Samuel M, Gold, an excellent judge and an excellent friend,

THE BOARD OF Trustees of the police retirement fund in New
York City had ruled that the petitioner, a former Heutenant in the
City’s Police Department, was not entitled to accidental, disability
retirement, He felt otherwise, and went to Court, Where did he get?

SOME OF THE FACTS

THE JUDGE started his opinion with the statement that there
was no dispute that the petitioner's present physical condition neces-
sitated his retirement, However, that was not the question,

THE JUDGE wrote that on the papers submitted to him there
seemed to be little dispute that the petitioner's injury sustained in
1948 was service-connected and that the subsequent injury received
in 1957 occurred in the performance of his duties too,

THE QUESTION was whether a disabling tremor in the peti+
tioner's right hand was caused by the 1948 occurrence and further
aggravated by the 1957 occurrence,

The Judge came to the following conclusions:

© Because the petitioner responded to his call to duty
does not prevent him from getting what he should have received.

THAT SEEMS like a simple statement which everyone knows; but
T have run into people just as Judge Gold has, who do not know that,

© The Board of Trustees is bound by its medical board's
decision in regard to the need for retirement,

© The decision of the medical board cannot be disturbed if
the injury which caused the disability arose outside the peti-
tioner’s employment.

HOWEVER, THE Judge stressed one thing. The medical board's
opinion as to whether the disability was service-connected was only
advisory, According to Judge Gold its opinion would have been final
had there been proof that the petitioner had been afflicted with
some disease or some injury outside his employment, which caused
the disabling condition. But, that was not present in this case. The
Judge discussed the difference and his conclusion,

JUDGE'S OPINION

THE JUDGE explained what he meant in no uncertain words, aa
follows:

Here there is no mere conflict of medical testimony. Instead
such necessary evidence to support the determination is entirely
lacking. On the contrary, it appears that the petitioner's medical
difficulties commenced soon after the 1948 accident and that only
the additional service-connected 1957 aceldent intervened. Per-
haps, respondents, unjustably, placed too much reliance upon
the fact that the petitioner never reported on sick call for eleven
years after the 1948 accident, despite the fact that he was being
examined medically for the complained of condition during that
time. Petitioner should not be penalized—even by innuendo—
for his devoted performance to duty, despite his known physical
allment, Moreover, the medical finding herein appear particu-
larly inconclusive.

‘THE JUDGE ended up by sending the case back to the Board of
‘Trustees, This time they will look into it, knowing what the Judge
meant,

=

Is this correct?"

Your friend is right, If you earn
over $1,200, you probably can still
get some checks, With earnings
above this amount, your total
benefits for the year would be re-
duced by $1 for each $2 earned

0.

$100.00 or perform substantial
services in self-employment, you
can receive a benefit check no
mater how much you earn during
the year,
one

Tehecked my social security ne~
count about five years ago and it
was correct then, Why should I

check it now?

Since then your quarterly earn~
ings have been reported about
twenty times. It is possible that
your employer may have an error,
If the error was made more than
three years ago, it Is difficult to
corret your record,

eee

What ts & quarter of coverage?

A quarter of coverage is a term
used by social security to measure
the amount ef work done by an
individual, For social security pur
poses, the year Is divided into four
quarters, If you are an employee,
the payment of $50 in wages in «
quarter gives you social security
credit for that quarter, You need
a certain number of credits to be-
come eligible for social security
payments,

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Tuesday, May 8, 1962

Full Decision on Correction

Ordinarily, the length of decisions on title appeals to the Department of Compensation
and Classification creates too much pressure on available column space to permit report-

ing in full,

The Leader this week makes an exception in the case of the reallocation appeal of
Correction Officers because of two factors. J. Earl Kelly, Compensation and Classification
director, has taken exception to an earlier Le ader editorial which cHarged that his rejection

of the appeal was based primarily on the

fact that there were no recruiting difficulties

in the title, Kelly asked that the full decision be printed to support his contention that this

was not so.

Also, the rejection by Kelly of the reallocation request is being appealed this week.
The full text of his earlier decision follows,

the period between

During

October 17 and November 6, 1961.! re a few classes which may be |
reliably used for comparative pur- |

applic \ions for the upward re-
jocation of the above-mentioned
classes were filed with the Direc-
tor of Classification and Com-
pensation, At the request of all
parties, including the Commis-
sioner, we conducted a hearing
on Novewiber 29, 1961 at which the
Commissioner of Correction and
he various group representatives
xpressed orally their reasons for
selieving that the upward re-
allocations should be made.

The principal reasons advanced
doth in writing and orally are the
following

1. Modern penological tech-
niques have broadened the scope
of the Correction Officer's job;

2. Salaries provided by Grade
11 are too low In relation to the
work and responsibilities of Cor-
rection Officers and to the quall-
{Meations necessary to the proper
performance of Correction Of-
Meer's duties;

3. The salary ranges for Cor-
rection Officers in the New York

City and in the Federal services
are higher than in New York
State:

4. Many Correction Officers are
equired to perform ancillary (out
wf title) duties for classes of work
itlocated to grades above Grade
1

During the latter part of 1957.
he employees who have made the
urrent requests applied to the
Director of Classification and
Compensation for a reallocation
‘rom Grade 11 to Grade 14. A
hearing upon that application
was conducted by the Director on
March 20, 1958. On April 10, 1958,
whe request was disapproved for
the reasons set forth in a» six-
page decision, The petitioners
appealed from the Director's de-
cision to the Classification and
Compensation Appeals Board. On
July 7, 1958, the Board dismissed
the appeal

Except for changes which ‘ave
recurred in salary rates in New
York State and in other jurisdic-
lons since 1957, the written ap-
Nications filed tn support of the
equests are essentially
as those which were filed

broadened scope” of the
‘orrection Officer's Job, as it was
escribed in 1961, 1s not different
rom the 1957 portrayal. In

nore than three-fourths of the
961 description was copled ver-
vatim from the 1957 “briefs.”
What was not copied verbatim

dds nothing of consequence to
he concept which was presented
our years ago, It 1s reasonable
o conclude, then, that these
yositions have not changed in any
ignificant manner since we last
svaluated them.
Denies Arguments

The second reason advanced by
he petitioners that Grade 11 is
oo low in relation to the work
ind responsibilities of Correction
Mfficers, of its very nature, calls
of comparisons between the Cor-
eetion Officer grade and the
ablished grades of other com-
varable classes within the New
fork State pay plan. The em-
Noyees {n 1961, as in 1957, have
nade no attempt to engage in any
saoh comparisons. The Association
magerted that Correction Officer
Maitions stand “relatively apart
snd alone’ and that there are

Ve Gomp characteristics

45 well as ap-
other titles, there

ct | be

under | self,

a in this instance, These
classes are: Park Patrolman,
Grade 11, Traffic and Park Of-

ficer, Grade 12, Warrant end

Transfer Officer, Grade 12. Em- |

ployees in these three titles are

armed peace officers. The Park |
id

Patrolmen enforce Ie
ordinances in State parks and on
State parkways, for the purpose
jof protecting persons and prop-
erty, In the densely populated
Long Island area, with its con-
tinuously heavy parkway traffic,
this work is carried on by the
Grade 12 Traffic and Park Of-
ficers. In all other areas of the
State, it is carried on by the Park
| Patrolmen, Grade I. Warrant and
| Transfer Officers are responsible
for investigation and the arrest
|of parole violators and thelr
| transportation from the place of
|apprehension to New York State
correction institutions, They con-
fer with officials of other etates
on certain matters having to do
with extradition and they are re-
sponsible for the custody and
transportation of prisoners and
the protection of the general pub-
le. Correction Officers face haz-
ards in their work, but they
not exposed to hazards as great
as those which confront these
police officers and, in the per-
formance of their normal dutles,
they are not as much “on their
own" as are the police officers
or the Warrant and Transfer
Officers, Additional comparisons
with classes in the institutional
service of the State could be made
but the three which we have
chosen are enough to show that
Grade 11 for Correction Officers
and for the other titles which are
involved in this application is
reasonable and appropriate and
that it ls not.too low in compar-
|ison with other classes in the
State's pay structure.

Arguments such as the high
cost of living, the inadequacy of
pay checks to
tions, the
jholding, and the like are irrele-
| vant in an application of this
nature, Living costs have risen
{for everyone and not for Oorrec-
tion Officers alone, Salary in-
creases necessary to offset the
| effects of rising living costs must
and they have been service-
| wide in application eo that they
benefit all employees and not a
comparative few

Comparisons

It 1s true that New York City
has a higher salary rate for Oor-
rection Officers than New York
State, Nevertheless, New York
‘Bute’s Grade 11 range provides
salaries higher than those paid
[3 every other major public jur-
isdiction in the United States
with the possible exception of the
State of Massachusetts, The
following examples, which show
minimum and maximum pay rates,
iustrate our comparative position:
California
Michigan .
Tiinols
New Jersey
Connecticut _
Massachusetts .
*Federal . .
New York City
New York State .
‘From «@ sampling
penitentiaries, it was ascertained
that the majority of the Correo-
tion Officers are at the GS~
level, In the Federal service,
there ts @ promotional level at
GS-7, $5,355-$6.345 for which there
4 not & corresponding promo-
tional level in the New York
State service.

‘The petitioners hy founded
thelr requests for tion

inctpally upon the ‘ison

ween the New York and
New York State rates. This, of it-

, de not @ sound reason for
us to make the adjustments which
have been requested, It involves
4n assumption that the New York
City rates are, in fact, the proper

i“

rates for this class of work and
that the salaries which have been
established by nearly all other
public jurisdictions are not proper,
We cannot reach such a conclu-
sion.

Previous Review

In 1957-58, when we last re-
viewed and passed upon requests
of this nature, New York City and
| one or two other public jurisdic-
tions had rates of pay which were
somewhat higher than New York
State's. What we said on this aub-
ject then is equally applicable to
the current sltuation. In our April
10, 1958 decision, we said that we

legal or moral to try to find for
each of the State’s 2600 classes
of employment the highest rate
paid by any other employer and
to equal or better that rate our-
selves. Many employers- have
sound pay plans. Meany do not
There are innumerable special
and local considerations which
can result in “stray” rates which
jare unusually high or, for that
|matter, unusually low, If the ad-
ministration of the State's salary
plan were to be unduly Influenced
by “stray” rates of this sort, we
| would soon have not a plan but,
jrather, a disorderly and inconsis-
\tent compensation complex, We
have the assurance from our own
sound and comprehensive studies
that, in comparison with salaries
being paid by virtually every other
major public jurisdiction, Grade
11 provides @ reasonable and
equitable compensation for the
New York State Correction Of-
ficers.

In_ 1960 and 1961, we conducted
|classification studies of all 3,888
| Grade 11 positions represented by

the titles involved In these re-
quests, Consequently, we are able
to demonstrate that there ts little
or no basis for the belief expressed
by the petitioners that many
| Correction Officers are perform-
jing “out of title’ work which is
worth more than Grade 11, There
were only 153 employees who were
not engaged in duties which ar
consistent with their titles. We
found 23 assigned to duties above
the Grade 11 level. ‘There were
16 performing out-of-t: duties
the Grade 11 level and there
were 114 who were assigned to the
performance of duties below the
Grade 11 level, Considering the
large number of positions in-
volved, this is not, by any means,
a high proportion of out-of-title
work

On Recruitment

When, in faot, the rate of pay
for a given class of work is too
low, it generally follows that re-
cruitment ia difficult and that the
number of vacant positions in
that class is higher than normal,
Although the petitioners, in their
current applications, have not
claimed recruitment difficulty nor
an unusually large number of
vacancies as they did in 1957, we
have, nevertheless, looked into thia
condition because of their claim
that the Grade 11 range is too low,
| Under normal conditions, for a
group of 3,800 positions, a 6 to 7
percent vacancy ratio ts about
average in view of retirements,
death, resignations, and other
similar causes of separation from
the service, On November 21, 1961,
only 55 of the 3888 positions in-

volved in these requ were
vacant; @n extraordinarily amall
ration of only 14 percent, On

June 24, 1961, the Civil Service
Commission conducted examina
tions for the Grade 11 titles in-
volved in this proceeding. 2,840
candidates took the examination,
Of that number, 1,435 passed the
written test and it ts anticipated
that over 750 of these candidates
will pass the physical tests and
other portions of the «amination
and be placed upon the list trom
which appointments will be made,
Obviously, the State is not ex-
perigpolng recruitment difficul-
tlea Tor these classes of employ-

Utica Mayor Declares
Aides Will Be Paid
Despite Opposition

(From Leader Correspondent)

UTICA, May 7—Mayor Frank M. Dulan said last week that the Municipal Civil Service
Confnission would not be able to withhold the pay of city employees.
“All clty employees are going to get pald no matter what the commission says,”

Onondaga CSEA Calls For Pay
Hike, Health Plan, Other
Benefits For Syracuse Aides

(From Leader Correspondent)

SYRACUSE, May 7—Requests for salary and wage boosts
for all city employees and insurance coverage under the neon
Health Insurance Plan have been filed by Onondaga Chap-)
ter, Civil Service Employees Association, with Syracuse)
Mayor William F. Walsh.

‘The chapter's proposal calls for |
@n annual increase of “not less the State Civil Service Employees
than $500" for all employees, Association. Mr. Darrow Is chap-
boosts of “not less than five cents| ter representative.

Sree ate like Wee meee Oe atone
workers in all departments the group had given the requests |

Extra Longevity Needed “much careful and thorough

Tt also asks that the city provide | study,” and that the resolution
employees with the State Health| to present the requests to the

Insurance Plan of Blue Cross-
Blue Shield-Major Medical cover-
age, with the city to pay one-half
the cost of the plan under both
family and individual coverage,
while the worker is employed by
the city. Upon retirement, the
chapter asks that the city pay
the full cost of insurance cover-
age.

Also requested was an extra

longevity for all employees with |

80 years of service, These older

workers were penalized when the |
@lty'’s new salary schedule went)

into effect recently as positions
and grades were started off with
the minimum. Thus older em-
Ployees had to go five steps to

feach their maximum before be-|

coming eligible for thelr first
Jongevity, the chapter pointed out
in a letter to the mayor,

‘Tapper, Darrow See Mayor

The city employees request were |

announced following @ meeting of
members of the chapter's public
felations committee, Vernon M.
Tapper and Arthur 8, Darrow,
with Mayor Walsh last week. Mr.
pper is third vice president of

Suffolk Chapter Will

| mayor was adopted by the chap-

ter's Board of Directors.

A total of 1,020 city employees
are members of Onondaga Chap-
ter, the letter pointed out. Onon-
daga County employees are also
members of the CSEA unit.

‘The chapter stated in the letter
its wage increase requesia are
Justified by the Cost of Index of

Dulan sald.

He made the pledge in the wake
of « threat by Rocco F. DePerno,
chairman of the commission to
refuse certification of elty pay
rolls unless the Dulan administra-
tion followed hiring policies set
down by the commission,

Source of Conflict

Two members of the three-man
commission haye been at odds|
with the mayor for years over)
various issues.

The latest battle opened when
Dulan and Safety Commission J.
Carroll Hamlin said they would}
reject the commission's certifica- |
tion of three applicants for police
patrolmen. Hamlin said two of the
Spplicants had juvenile police re-
cords and the third was unsuit-
able because of what he sald was
“disgraceful conduct.”

The commission turned down
Hamlin’s request for rejection of
of the three applicants. Hamlin
then called on the State Civil
Service Department to urge the
local commission to change Its
stand. The state told Hamlin an
Investigator would get in touch
with him this week.

DePerno has contended that the
Police records of the applicants
are “minor.”

Next Pay Dates
The next pay for city workers ts

the Bureau of Labor Statistics.| ray 15, Piremen are scheduled to

which i» still an all-time
record high.
Health Plan Stalled

The insurance ttem has been
under discussion at City Hall
since 1959, the chapter said, but
| no report has been issued.
| On the increases for per diem
workers, the chapter stated that
regular, full-time per diem work-
ers In the Department of Parks
have not had a wage increase in
several years,

The chapter's requests came
les# than two weeks after the
|mayor announced he was recom-
mending salary increases of $150
| annually or 10 cents an hour for
| about 475 employees of the city's
Department of Public Works.

Meantime, Dulan ts preparing
to replace DePerno on the Com-
mission.

Since he took office in 1960,

with DePerno, who was named to
the commission in 1956 and later
became its chairman.

Shortly after he took office,
Dulan removed DePerno on
chargs of conflict of interest, The
Court of Appeals reinstated De-
Perno last year after a 15-month
legal fight, however,

Union Man Charged

Teameters Council and also a local
Teamster leader, was involved in
& conflict of interest when the
Teamsters attempted to organize

sion.
