Diaper-League

Sooner or later every young
father will have to diaper his
baby, To save embarrassment
and a lot of pin pricks, I will
give you an easy method,

Consider the diaper as &
baseball diamond. In diaper-
ing, you take second base and
fold tt down to home plate,
Then you lay the baby on it,
fold first and third base over
the baby’s tummy, bring home
plate up to meet the other
bases. Then pin all bases
together,

The best plan, of course, is
not to be around at diapering
time, especially if your wife
| prefers the “square” method,
Go out to the ball field, if you
can... or anchor yourself in
front of the TV set and tell the
Uttie woman you can't possibly
be disturbed. t

Before the end of the month it Is expected that the State Social
Security Agency will distribute, to all local subdivision members of
the Retirement System, forms upon which the employee member
can indicate whether or not he desires Sucinl Security under the
terms of the recent law. These forms, which will be named “Declara-
tion of Intention,” should be filled in promptly and returned to the
Social Security Agent in the locality. Accompanying the forms will
be a booklet, similar to the one issued for the state employees, dis~
cussing the relation of Social Security to the local subdivisions,

By July 15th, all of the resolutions which were amended, to
conform to the new legislation passed at the special session, should
be in the hands of theSocial Security Agency, The amended Social
Security provision provides for seven quarters of retroactivity instead
of the six granted in the original law, This amendment was neces-
sary to permit those municipal employers who are attaining age
65 this year to retire, if they wish, with Social Security benefits.

Scattered reports from the Social Security Agency Indicate that
where the new resolution hns been considered, the local legisiative
bodies are giving the added quarter of retroactivity. There is also
| some evidence that local areas, which on the first resolution had

voted for no retroactivity, are now sending in new resolutions grant-
ing seven quarters.

The benefits of Social Security with its retroactive features was
& good and generous grant by the Legislature and the Governor to
all public employees, both state and local. It will ease the financial
burdens of retirement for many civil servanis—and it will afford
immediate protection to the many others with growing families,

We hope all of the municipal employee-members of the Retire-
ment System will take advantage of the many benefits inherent
in Social Secu

The Shrunken Dollar

§ 1957 rolis along, public employee gains made in the
State Legislature are coming into affect. A legisla-

tive year that promised State empoyees little evolved into
a substantial number of forward steps in the fields of re-
tirement, salary and allied items, thanks largely to the
yeoman efforts of the Civil Service Employees Association.

In the 1958 session of the Legislature the Civil Service
Employees Association and its members are faiéed with
another battle, one that has become familiar—the battle
against runaway inflation,

At this same time last year, we pointed out that the
steel industyy was due for another round of wage increases
that would be followed by another round of increases in
the price of the industry’s commodity.

As steel goes, so goes the nation.

The wage and price increases haye already taken
place. They in turn will boost the cost of other items and
this, in turn, will depress the actual worth of a State em-
ployee's wages once more. This is one reason why State
pay must be further increased,

Governor Harriman hag already committed himself to
a salary boost for State aides, one that he said would be
“equitable.” This is a frank and sensible declaration. It
contrasts with the Federal Administration's opposition to
a US. raise as inflationary, as much as to say that every-
body deserves a raise except public employees.

Workers can depend on the Association to arm itself
with the best possible arguments to prove than any wage
adjustment, to be equitable, must be geared to the most
recent inflationary spirals in living costs.

The State, if it is really to consider equitable adjust-
ments, must lend an honest ear to these argifinents.

Civil Service Jobs for Lawyers

FERSONS NEWLY ADMITTED to the Bar, wondering what
would be thelr best move in starting a legal career, frequently turn
to lending lawyers for advice. The newly licensed counsellors, solieit~
ors, proctors, barristers and advocates tn New York City, and probably
elsewhere in the State, face a serious problem, because of too many
lawyers, .

Advice of this type is often given: If you can see your way
clear to obtaining ¢lients, then it might be advisable to attempt
private practice. If one's uncle is the president of a bank, and disposed
to encourage his enterprising nephew, that would be a propitious
incentive, Any other source of clientele, particularly an organiza-
tion or corporation, would be in the same category because con-
stantly confronted by legal problems, The question then is whether
the beginning practitioner has the mental capacity, the devotion
to exacting duty, and the transferrability of intelligence to lean
heavily on training ubstitute for experience. It is barely possi-
ble to make that transposition, no’one fully succeeds on that score
completely. The truism that there ts no substitute for experience
holds in the-legal profession asx well as elsewhere, though brilliance
will suffer few defeats,

Suppose the starting lawyer does not have the connections—
family, personal or political—that will give him the lift he needs

at the start? Shall he make the effort anyway? Is the lkelihood
of success good?

What Advice They Usually Get

Generally the successful lawyers advise novices to take all civil
service examinations that are open for filling legal Jobs, In Federal,
State and local governments. If the beginners gut on eligible lists,
they would have a good prospect of appointment. If they have ability,
and an eagerness to work hard, they can win promotion without
exccessive delay. They can in due course be earning # salary in
the $10,000 bracket, or more. That is described as much better than
what could be expected of the average lawyer who starts out for
himself as an independent practitioner. While the beginning salary
may be modest, it is usually higher than the average net income
from private practice during those same early years. Office expenses
have rises sharply, Law stenographers often make more money, net,
than do the lawyers for whom they work. Cost of rent, other serv-

icen, stationery, and all the many Incidentals of private practice, is
also at a peak,

The Ume between the announcement of an examination and the
first certification from # lst may be a year, What does the starting
lawyer do meanwhile? He works in some law office, to gain the
experience he requires, or elsewhere, if necessary.

So goes the standard advice, with the additional comment that
no matter in what field of law experience is gained, it is useful
in any other branch in which the lawyer may want to practice
Jater, Once in a public Job, he may see prospects of improving his
Prospects, some years later, and want to shift to private practice,
By that time he would have some idea of where the “business” is
coming from, He will have earned the confidence of persons, groups
or corporations becouse of his abliity and experience.

The foregoing, as a whole, does not paint a rosy picture of
the prospects of gn independent legal career, expecially in the Big
City, but it is a true picture, The supply greatly exceeds the demand
in the private practice field, The situation in some other professions,
like engineering, ts reversed,

Postal Unions' Good Work

pay Increase bill to be brought to the floor of the Mouse. To do
this required getting a sufficient number of signatures of House
members, The committee was discharged of consideration of the bill,
and one possible obstacle was overoome,

Originally the committee majority appeared to be opposed to
any such bill, The chairman himself said that the committee would
Hot vote out any pay bill not requested by the Administration,

The more numerous classified employees would also get a raise,
{f the usual pattern ts followed, maybe a smaller one. The postal
employees, much better organized, and much more {ndustrious in
their efforts, habitually carry the ball. The classified employees
ride the postal coattails,

The lesson is that employees need strong organization, With=
out that they may expect little in the way of additional benefits,
even though some fringe benefits do come along, one might say,
naturally. But pay increases don't,

Probably even the rank and file of postal employees do not re-
cognize how hard their leaders and aides worked to move the raise
bil along as far as it has gone. While postal employees probably
contribute more, in the form of effort, toward achieving a goal, than
do the rage members of employee groups, including unions, the
rule still holds that the leaders do the bulk of the work, Greater,
and still greater, mombership participation, is the need Sf every
large employee group,

ALBANY, July 22.—Governor
Harriman hos named Alfred £.

&® temporary position of deputy

Pail H. Appleby when he retires
as state budget director. Dr. Apple- |

ALR.

The figure $5178.50 described
as the Social Security tax on re-
troactive wages for 1986 and 1957
is computed as follows:

1, Since coverage would go back
to March 16, 1956 as proposed,
approximately 3, or 75% of the
earnings for 1956 would be brought
under Social Security for that
year’,

75% of $4200 annual wage would
be $2150 under Social Security,!
But 75% of $5600 annual wage
would be $4200, the maximum
wage under Social Security. In
1956 the tax rate was 2%

U. S. Explains Social Security for State
And Local Government Employees

The sotlowing information on
Social Security for State and lo-
eal government empolyees was
issued by the U, 8, Social Security,
Administration:

M employees of State and
Jocal governments can be brought
under Pederal old-age and sur-
vivors insurance by means of

xreements between the State and
the Federal Government,
For employees not under a State
local government retirement
ystem this protection was made
possible by the 1950 Amendments
0 the Social Security Act

The 1954 Amendments to the
Social Security Act made it pos-
ble for ol and survivors
insurance protection to be extend-
ed to most workers under State
or local retirement systems, and
1956 amendments extended
protection to additional em-
ployees in certain States

To obtain Social Security cov-

the

this

erage for employees of the State
and for employees of it* political
subdivisions, the State enters In-
to an sgreement with the Fed-
eral Government.
How Coverage Can Be Obtained
Employees whose positions are
covered by State or Jocal govern-
ment retirement systems can be
| included in a Federal-State agree-
ment only after there has been a
special referendum on the ques-
tion ® majority of the eligible
| employees have voted in favor of
having old-age ond survivors in-

groups will be covered in that
State
Most public employees in a

State may be included; however,
certain positions and services can-
not be covered by an sureement,

and others may be included or
excluded at the option of the
State,

The following public employees
cannot be included:
Policemen and firemen who are
under a State or local govern-
ment retirement plan, except in

The State decides the extent to

will count toward monthly pay-

disabled to engage in gainful work,
to them and their families in their
old age, and toward monthly pay-

And Benefits Explained

(Continued from Page 13)

reach 62 years of age Instend of
hayingsto wait until you reach 65,

If you are a working woman
and you choose to take the pay-
ments before you reach 65, the
amount of the monthly benefit
you will receive will be reduced,
‘The amount of the reduction de-
pends on the number of months
between the time you start get-
Ung benefits and the month be-
fore you reach 65,

If you choose to start getting
Payments as soon as you reach
62, the amount of your payment
each month will be 80 percent of
what you would get if you were
65, Por each month after nage 62
that you wait to get payments the
Feduction will be less,

‘The reduction Is permanent;
your payments after 35 will con-
tinue at that reduced rate,

What You Need To Do

If you are notified by the State
or political subdivision for which
you work that you will be cover-
ed by old-nge survivors, and dis-
ability insurance, be sure to get
® Social Security card if you do
Mot already have one. Your pay-
roll office will have a supply of
applications, and will arrange with
the local Social Security office for
the issuance of your card, If you
once had « card but lost it, be
sure to give this information on
the application in answer to the
question “Have you ever applied
for or had a social security or
Tailrond retirement number?”

What It Costs

At present the Social Security
Contribution for employees is 244
Percent of their pay, and an equal
amount is paid by the employing
@gency just as is done by private

Social Security under an agree-
ment between your State and the
Federal Government, your payroll
officer will kerp back 2!4 percent
of your pay for Social Security
Every month this amount, plus
@ matching 2!4 percent, will be

~ paid to the Federal Government.

At the same time a report of your
earnings will be sent to the So-
cial Seourity Administration #0
that your earnings can be cred-
ited to your Social Security ac-
count, The benefit amount pay-
able to you and your dependents
later on will be based on the earn
ings credited to you.

LROAL NOTION

tire at age 65 (62 for women)
or later, depends on your aver-
age earnings in work by Social
Security. Total payments to your
family in your old age or in case
of your death will depend on your
earnings, the number of your
dependents, and the age of each
member of your family.

When Benefits Cannot Be Paid

Since the purpose of the bene-
fils ts to replace part of the earn-
ings lost through retirement or
death, benefits are withheld when
earnings exceed certain amounts.
If you are entitled to benefits
as a retired worker, dependent,
or survivor and you are under 72
years of age, you may earn up to
$1,200 in any full taxable year
without losing benefits for any
month in that year.

If your earnings exceed $1,200
in any full taxable year, benefits
may be withheld for one or more
months, depending on how much
more than $1,200 ou earn,

Any carnings you have from
employment or self-employment
are counted toward the $1,200 a-
mount, whether or not they are
covered by the Social Security
Law. You must Inform your So-
cial Security office if your earn-
ings are over $1,200 in a year,

You may have any amount of
income from savings, pensions,
annunities, insuyance, interest,
dividends, or other income from
personal investments and still re~
ceive benefits each month.

Regardless of the amount of
your yearly earnings, benefit pay-
ments are made for any month
during which you neither earn
over $80 In wages nor render sub-
stantial services in self-employ-
ment

When you reach 72 years of age,
you can get Social Security bene-

fits, no matter how much you
are earning,
Types of Benefits
To qualify for monthly pay-

ments when you are between age
50 and 65 and disabled for all
work, when you stop working at
retirement age ov later, or to make
payments possible to your sur-
vivors, you must have been in
work covered by the Social Secur-
ity law long enough to be "Insur-
Pee

You may be either “fully in-
sured” or “currently tnsured” of
both, depending on the amount
of covered work to your credit
and on how much of it was done
in the three years before you
qualify for disability or retirement
payments or before your death,

When you reach retirement age
(or if yeu are pest that age) and
are fully Insured, you are eligible
for retirement payments. (The
work required for being fully in-
sured may be Cone either before
or after you reach retirement
age?

Por benefits to be payable to
an aged dependent husband or
to an aged dependent widower,
his wife must have been both fully
and currently insured at the time
of her retiremen: or death,

Ordinarily a person ts fully in-
sured when he has been in work
covered by the law for half as
many years as the number of
years since 1950, or since he be-
came 21 years of age if that is
later, A “person who reaches re-

| tlrement age or dies before July

1957, for example, would ordin~
arily need about three years of
work, This work can have have
been done at any time after 1996.
At least 114 years of covered work
are always repuired; when a per-
son has 10 years of work to his
credit, he ts fully insured for life.

A Special provision in the law
makes it possible for people newly
covered by the law to become tn-
sured sooner than they otherwise
would, If you have Social Secur-
ity evedit for your work during
Uhe first three months of 1956
and you continue to work in a
Job covered by the law, you can
become fully insured by mid-1957,
after only a year and a half of

, | covered work, If you remain in

covered work through September
1960 you will still be fully insur-
ed, and after September 1960 you
will stay fully Insured if you are
in covered work as much aa half
the time.

You are currently insured at
any time if you have 1% years of
work undor the law during the

Preceding three years.

If you are currently insured at
death, payments can go to cer-
tain members of your family.
However, if you are only current-
ly and not fully insured at re-
tirement age, you cannot get re~
Urement payments,

When a currently insured wom-
an dies her children can get
monthly payments even if they
are supported by their father.

To be eligible for disability pay-
ments between age 50 and 65 you
must be both fully and currently
and you must have work-
ed under the law for at least five
out of the 10 years before the on-
set of your disability.

Four Times for Action

L ba Your Reach Retirement

je

When you reach retirement age
{62 for women, 65 for men) get
in touch with you Social Security
office promptly for information
about your Social Security rights.
If your total earnings sre not over
$2,080. year, or If there is even
one month of the year in which
you do not work after you reach
retirement age, you may be eligible
for some old-age insurance pay-
ments,

Even if you are not immediately
eligible for benefits, it may be to
your advantage to make sure you
have all the information you need
a* ut your benefit rights.

2. When You Are 72

When you reach 72, get In touch
with your Social Security office.
If you are insured, benefits may
be payable to you even if you are
working full time.

3. If a Worker In Your Family

Dies

After the death of a person
whose work was covered by So-
cial Security, som@,member of his
family should inquire promptly
at the nearest Social Securty of-
fice to learn if survivors insurance
benefits "are payable.

4. 1f You Are Disabled Before

65

If you become disabled after
you hive been employed in work
covered by Socinl Security, you
should get in touch with your!
Bocial Security office. You may |
be uble to have your earnings ace!
count frozen to protect your bene-
fit rights. If you are between 50|
and 65, you may be eligible for
disability insurance benefits.

If you work for @ State or lo-
eal government and your Job ts
brovght under the Social Security
law, a record of your earnings will
be kept under the name and ac-
count number shown on your So-
cial Security card, You should
keep the same account number
for life, If you lose your card,
apply for a duplicate card with
the same number.

Show your curd to your pay-
roll officer. It will be needed for
his report of your earnings, Be
sure your number is copied cor-
rectly.

If you change your name. take
the old card to your Social Se-
curity office and apply for a
card with the same number but
with your new name.

If you do not know the address
of your Social Security office, ask
at the post office or look In the
felephone book under “‘U, 5.

Government, Department of
Health, Education, and Welfare.”

Gerosa’s Instructions
On Social Security

Comptroller Lawrencte B. Gerosa
issued = preliminary Instruction
sheets to New York City depart-
ments concerning two Social Se-
curity card forms: 1, declaration
of intention, requiring a Yes or
No declaration, and 2, authorian-
tion for coverage payment, both
retroactive and prospective
A more complete set of sheets will
be issued by him by next week,

The Instructions set both in
part:

‘Transmitted herewith are two
forms, prepared on ‘Tabulating
Cards, containing the names and
pension registry numbers of those
of your employees who are mem-
bers of a public retirement or
persion system, These employees
may indicate’ upon Form No, 1
their Intention to accept or re-
Ject Social Security; also on Form
No. 2 the manner in which those
who do accept coverage wish to
have thé cost thereof defrayed,
including retroateive as well us
curent costs. Forms Nos. 1 and
2 must be properly filled out and
returned to the Comptroller's Of-
fice through the payroll clerk be-
fore August 9,

If cards for any employee who is
® retirement or pension system
member or who will beeome a
Member prior to August 9, ate
missing, the payro! clork will pro-
vide riecessary blank card forms,
filling in the name, pension reg-
istry number, ete., by printing or
typewriter and obtain the proper
signatures where required.

FORM NO. 1

Form No, 1—the “DECLARA-
TION OF INTENTION” MUST be
signed in the “YES” or “NO” box
by each member of apublic  re-
trement or pension system or by
each employee who becomes a
member before August 9. Only
those who declare “YES” that they
want Social Security Coverage and
whose dcelaration forms are filed
with the Comptroller by the pay-
roll clerk before August 9 will be
eligible to vote in the referendum
to be held on oF about November
15, Failure to file Form No, 1 be-
fore that date will deprive an
employee of the right to vote in
the referendum even though he
signed “YES” on the form,

Before August 9, 1957 the com-
pleted Porm No, 1 cards must be
separated into two groups “YES”
and “NO”, Both groups of cards,
properly searegated, must be for-
warded to the Comptrolier.

After the Form No. | cards are
received, the Comptrolier will pre-
pare @ listing of all “YES” cards
to show the names of all pension
system members who want Social
Security Coverage and who will
therefore be eligible to vote in the
referendum. The list will be pre-
pared for each department and
should be checked carefully when |
recelved by you for any errors or
omissions.

Tt ts advisable that all eligible
employees be notified of how they
have been designated so that if
an error has been made on the
listing they will be able to have
corrections made by their letter

addressed to and filed with the | nN

Comptroller, through each pay-

roll clerk prior to the referendum

‘on or about November 15,

Tt is urgent that the checking of
the list be done accurately and
promptly because after the ref-
erendum it wil not be possible
to change from or into Social Se-
curity Coverage.

Any employer desiring Social
Security coverage. or who ts obli-
gated to take such coverage prior
to the execution of the tripartite
agreement, is obliged to take and
pay for such retroactive coverage
a6 his individual case requires,

FORM NO, 2

For every “YES" card of Form
No. 1 there must be a Form No,
2 card “AUTHORIZATION FOR
SOCIAL SECURITY COVERAGE
PAYMENTS.” This form will be
used by the payroll clerg as the
basis for preparing the Retro-
activity Cost payment-roll and for
computing the new payroll deduc-
tion data for the first 1958 payroll
on which will begin, on a cur-
rent basis, future Social Secur-
ity Payroll Deducations.

Eligible non-pension system
members are to sign Form No. 2
only,

Atlhough such employees do not
have the right to declare their in-
tention and likewise have no vote
in the referendum, they must be
covered by Inw into Social Se-
curity.

‘The only section of the Form
No, 2 card thot such non-pension
system member employees can
sign is that on the left side of the
form which signifies that they
will pay by cheek or money order
before December 31, 1957 the a-
mount of the cost of the retro-
active coverage,

CERTIFICATIONS

Payroll clerks will be required
to certify that they have forward-
ed proper forms to every eligible
employees; that they have made
a timely return of such properly
executed forms to the Comptroller;
that they have notified each em-
ployees of the choice for coverage
by Social Security which has been
recorded for them and any exeep-
tions, with the reason therefore.
(The exact form of certificate will
be submitted ot a Inter date).
