For Action To Assure

The first Steps we should take
are relatively simple.

Each county organization
should have a committee of not
more than ten members to pro-
vide the drive necessary to
achieve the Association's ends.

For the facility of control and
organization, the committees
should have a chairman and @
secretary.

These committees should be
called for identification purposes,

or Social Security committees,

However, employees who wse

Dr, D. L, Davey, chief of Can-

Canada does not have nurses

that the visiting nurse syste

A Look At The Association

Now that the Annual Business Meeting is over and the Associa+
tion is embarked upon a new year, it is a good time to take a look
at ourselves to see where we are going and how well equipped we
are to wrrive at our destination, t think lt may be fairly said that,
in general, our organization Is in a good and healthy condition. Our
membership roley are showing strong support from the public workers
The dues deduction plan which we started last August ts moving
ata rapid pace. We have, at this writing, sent over 46,000 payroll

deduction authorizations to the State Comptroller—and more are
coming in each day, At the present rate, we have a right to be
opimistic as to our numerical growth.
Legislative Program Underway

Our legisiative program is rapidly being put into shape. We
can, at this early date, be very cheery about one of its principle
items. Recently the Legislature, the Governor, and the Comptroller
have all come out in support of the full supplementation of Social

Security benefits with those of the Employees Retirement System.
Furthermore, their news releases indicated were thinking not
only in terms of State employees, but also of those in the subdivisions.
‘These announcements are more than gratifying to the Association—
@> we were the only organization which put it definite the

These are only highlights of our progress—but they are strong
indicators of the strides we are making. If can add the one
foctor of an active and vigorous member interest in our Association
—shown in a spirited participation m chapter and Assocation affairs
—we would have an organization which would reflect unity and

Civil Service Employees Associn-
tion in Albany this month heard
extensive explanations of various
Social Security phases.

The three main speakers were
Vernon Tapper, CSEA fourth vice
| president and chairman of the
County Executive Committee; Is-
aac Hungerford, Administrative
Director
System, and Philip Kerker, As-
sociation public relations director.

After introductory remarks by
Mr, Tapper, the Social Security
forum began with Mr. Hungerford,
who declared

Work to be Done

As you know, Comptroller Le-
vitt told ench one of you in the
pamphlet that accempsnied your
| annuity statement, that a bill had
been prepared to provide for sup-
plementation of retirement bene-
fits with Soclal Security benefits.
However, even though the bill has
been drawn up, there is still work
being done on it, polishing it up,
making minor changes here and
there, etc, but not disturbing the
a of supplementing retirement
benefits with Social Security bene-
fits, Most of the changes are in
| the manner in which it can be ac-
complished

We propose in this bill to give
employzes who are members of the
retirement system, or who may
become, the privilece of haying
Social Security benefits in addition
to the retirement benefits to which
they would normally be entitled.
It differs from some other plans
that have been set forth because
other plans are ordinarily known
integration” where you would

ment system and supplement them
with a form of Social Security, so
that ultimately you would get the
same amount of benefits, but from
two sources,

Our plan is for continuing bene-
fits of the retirement system as
they are, but with the privilege of
adding Social Security benefits on
top of it. One other thing in our
bill is the provision that any em-
ployee who is a member of the
ystem and covered by Social Se-
curity can elect to reduce his con-
tributions to the retirement system
to the extent of the Social Secur-
ity tex." At this point, Mr. Hun-
gerford preceeded to give several
Mlustrations.

Soctal Security As a Choice

Mr, Hungerford continued:
“Last winter we joined several
other states in dividing the retire-
ment system into two portions, one

‘portion being those who want to

come under Social Security, and
the other those who do not want
to come under Social Security.
The bill was passed, and we now
have that incorporated in the pro-
posed legislation so that if the
majority of the people want So-
celal Security and the state extends
it to the localities. etc., then those
who do want it could have it, but
those who do not will not be re-
Qiired to, but that thelr successor
in that position will be required
to come under Social Security,
This is not a State law, but a
Federal law. The Federal govern-
ment recognized by the amend-
ment of Inst year that tt is some-
times difficult to eet 50% of the
people to vote in favor of going
} under Social Security, and if you

VERNON A, TAPPER
CSEA County Executive
Chairman

do get 50%, you till have a large
| minority who objected. and you
| would have considerable dissension
in the ranks.

People who do not want to be
covered under Social Security do
not have to, but men appointed
t that position at some future
time take Social Security as part
of the job when they take It, and
that if they don't like the situa-
| Gon, they don't have to take the
Job. Tt may be difficult for many
of you. understand to go back
to the people in your own locality
and talk to the taxpayers and con-
vince them that it is a good in-
vestment,—you will have to do a
real selling job back home.

Kerker Tells PR Aspects

Mr, Tapper next called upon

Philip Kerker who reported on tl
previous day's meeting of the Pub-

{llc Relationy Committee with
special committee representing the
county group.
Mr. Kerker said ways and means

selling the Association's pro-
|gram were discussed. It will be
necessary to convince both the
| members of the Legislature and
the employees the advantages of
the Association's bill.

Mr. Kerker stated that selling
any kind of a program which per-
tains to municipalities js a difficult
task, particularly when It gets in-
volved with personal problems
which arise out of the complexities
of Social Security. He explained
that there were three phases to
this program, and that these were
the ones that were discussed at
the previous day's meeting,

‘The first phase {s the pre-legis-
lntive phase,—that is, the period
between now and convening of the
Legislature January 1st,
which period any group like our-
selves {8 interested in getting com-
mitments from the ley
4% bill which is introduced will have
favorable acceptance,

jot

A Thorough Campaign

The second phase assumes that
the bill we have introduced and
want ts in the Legislature. ‘The
third phaue assumes that bill which
we Wanted has passed, and that the
Governor is going to call a refe
éndum, or has called it, and that
all the factors of the bill we want
are there, The problem will be
convincing the people to cast a

during |

ture that |

favorable vote In the referendum,
Mr. Kerker further stated that
| one part of the plan for immediate
| goctvity, would be the meeting on
the part of the Association officials
| with the members or officials of
jthe varying croups which deal with
the municipalities, such as the
Conference of Mayors, Association
of Towns, County Afficers Associn«
tion, Village Association, Highway
Associntion, etc, Those groups are
roing to have a point of view on
this Social Security problem.

Another svep, ne stated, is the
organization of the CSEA County
Division into what we would call
“grass roots’ committees or “So-
cla! Security" committ These
committees would function by ge
ting In touch and visiting by per-
sonal contact, where possible, with
legisiative representatives in the
varying territories assigned — to
them,—that ts, the Senators and
Assemblymen.

It could also be when this pro-
gram has advanced and the bill
has advanced and brougtit down
to a point of local participation,
that these contact points would
have to be extended to meet with
Boards of Supervisors, etc.

Another part of the program
calls for furnishing as much infor-
mation as is possible relative to
this whole Social Security problem
to the members of the Association
in as practicable a way as we
could, through chapter dissemina-
tion, through mailings, ete, and
try to get additional and/or infor-
mational data to the members so
that this problem ean be under-
stood to the fullest degree. He
stated that the Association will do
what it can, but that the big
“push” has got to come where the
county people arelocated, and with
the people with whom they live
and work. It is a question of the
education of public officials, of the
men in the street, and men in the
community. He stated that these
| committees should meet and evolve
further phases of the program us
time goes on.

Other ems

Mrs. Lula Williams spoke briefly
as follows: “As Co-chairman of
the Statewide Membership Com-
mittee, I would like to state thas
we have only about 12,000 mem-
bers, and we have to stop and
think that the state has more, and

i we the ones who hold
key because we are the “grass
roots” of this Association. We

know the Senators and Assembly-
men by their first names. But we
will not have very much power
if we go in and say ‘I am speaking
for 150 people’ The key to this
ls membership in the CSEA™,

In response to a question raised
by Joseph Flynn of Dutchess
Chapter regarding the civil service
status of Custodians in the City
of Poughkeepsie, Mr Flynn was
| advised to submit 9 letter from
the chapter with specific cases,—
men's names and titles, etc., and
it will be turned over to the Civil
Service Commission for investigas
tion

John Madden of Chemung stated
that it was his thought and that
of his chapter that The Leader
has done a nderful job in the
past year for the county group,
“but that there was room for im-
provement. It lies entirely in the
hands of the county people to get
jtheir news to The Leader; and
if they get good coverage through
The Leader, it will help them as
unit.” As representative of the
Chemung Chapter, he thanked
The Leader for the cooperation
it has rendered

Mr, Madden also commended the
| chairman of the County Executive
Committee, Vernon Tapper, stating
that be actually does the county

people a real favor in giving of
Volunteer tme whenever they
| Want \t, and whenever they call
upon him for service or advice
he utves it very willingly, A rite
ing vote of thanks was given te
Vernon Tapper

Union Recognition

ERE’S hoping that a bill for union recognition will

be successful in the next Congress. The project died
in the last one.

Union recognition by all branches of government is
growing. The idea is no longer basically repugnant to
government, as it was in the outmoded days of even a
couple of decades ago, New York City grants union ree-
ognition, and does not attempt to disguise the fact by
ealling it something else, The Transit Authority, an inde-
pendent agency, but one whose building program is City-
financed, not only accords union recognition, but enters
into contracts with a union for exclusive bargaining, and |
frankly calls it a contract. Time was when. it was called
something else, like a “memorandum of agreement.”

Federal employees are on strong ground when they
insist on union recognition. It is no secret that once union
recognition is granted, the next move will be for a check-
off. New York State has a checkoff, and so has New York
City. One day the Federal Government will have one,
too. So will local governments, like county governments,
some of which have travesties of both civil service ad-
ministration and labor relations generally.

Under Federal Jaw, employees in private industry
have union recognition, checkoff, and exclusive bargain-
ing rights for the dominant union, So often, has govern-
ment imposed requirements on industry that government
is not itself willing to extend to its employees that men-
tion of the fact has become unimpressive. All the more
reason why contriteness should supplant triteness, and
why public employees, in all jurisdictions, should enjoy
the same advantages shared by employees in private in-
dustry,

This time united union support of some particular
union recognition bill should be the rule. Where unions
have split on the terms of the bill, they have paid the
penalty. The time has come to reap the reward through
united action.

Disciplinary Cases

HEN a public employee is brought up on disciplin-

ary charges, and exonorated, one would expect
that, under the American system of justice, that would
be the end of it, Not so.

An exoneration usually is the result of an appeal
from a departmental finding, Thus the department may
have it in for the employee. After all, he showed up
the department as having arrived at a wrong verdict, The
exculpated employee is not insensitive to the cold official
glares inflicted on him, and may resign rather than en-
dure psychological torture,

Now he is looking for another job,

What does a aeparument occasionally do when a
letter of inquiry about the former government employee
arrives from a prospective new employer?

Go out of its way to inform the inquirer that the in-
dividual he is contemplating hiring had been brought
up on charges, The ordinary decency of saying he had
been exonerated may not even be observed,

The Sorin Law, enacted last year by the State Leg-
islature, requires that competitive employees shall be
served with written charges, granted a formal hearing,
and have the right to representation by counsel. Our edi-
torial, issue of October 16, pointed out how at least the
ppirit of that law is violated when resignations are de-
Beaded ynder threat of assured dismissal after a hear-

TO THE EDITOR

POLITICAL LIMITATION!
SHOULD NOT DISCRIMINATE
Editor, The Leader:

Mutually laudatory speeches
have been made emphasizing the
complementary nature of political
and competitive civil service, Each
iy said to have its proper place in
the scheme of things.

Truly, were the clubhouses to
disappear, a picture of civic stale-
mate wotild soon be defined Com-
munal life is geared to the efforts
of thoxe who for better or for
worse devote themselves to this
non-official area—politics.

Tt may never reach realization,

fined hiring scheme to be applied
toward recruitment of top govern-
mental executives, The city man-
ager iden Is essentially an Insecure
uovelty. Government is rather
more than just sn impersonal
smooth-running business, Thus,
employment office techniques fre-
quently prove unrealistic,

In the main, the give-and-take
of political bombast continues. As
citizens we must be alert to rec-
ounize the empty puff of salesaman-
ship. Tt may require more than the
pulling down of # lever on Election
Day to fucilitate the proper func-
toning of our civic selves

No Disparity in Character
Beware invidious limitations.
Big and little Hatch Acts proscribe
active politicking by competitively
classified governmental personnel.
Such implied weakness in the civil
service character is not ascribed
to the exempt employee. The lat-
ter is essentially free to do as his
personal loyalties dictate. Preedom
to campaign openly for one's cand-
idate is in the true democratic tra-
dition and should not be curtailed
for anyone, Here, civil service is
stymied.

In this context we hye not speak-
ing of policy-making levels which
presumptively reflect the dictates

but presently we have no well-de- |

MODERN PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATION

ahaeaae ane rT

‘Rule of Three’ Abandoned

The Beverly Hills, Cal, Civil Service Commission has made @
complete redraft of its ordinances and rules to bring them up to date,
The City Council, on the Commission's recommendation, recently
\adopted the revised system. The Commission reports that the
changes are significant “since they represent the development of
& modern, positive personnel program in place of the traditional
anti-spoils civil service system,”

Under the new system the “rile of three“ has been abandoned,
| Onder this rule the appointing officer must select one of the top
jthree eligibles for appointment or promotion, The Commission felt
|that competitive testing techniques are not sufficiently exact to
‘justity the “rule of three” and that there is reasonable assurance
that all persons on an eligible list are qualified.

Administrative approval of mimicipal personnel policies has been
vested in a single administrative officer.

Probationary periods have been made more flexible to allow the
Commission to set one-year rather than six-months probationary
periods for some positions.

The powers of the Commission have been broadened to give
it the right, on its own initfative, to investigate any alleged mis-
conduct or discipline an employee, subject to review by the City
Council,

A testing and qualifying procedure for hiring laborers has been
developed.

Highway Patrol Trainees Get Quite a Course

Highway patro) trainees at the new Texas Department of Public
Safety's police academy at Austin, Tex., are given 612 hours of in-
struction in more than 80 subjects before approval for regular duty.
| ‘The Civil Service Assembly reports that the course includes 16
hours of audio-visual training to teach swift coordination of eye and
brain, An aspirant for a patrol job must recognize a mock stolen
car on the highway even though both his car and the other one are
traveling at 60 miles an hour.

Twenty-nine hours are devoted to automobile driving methods
and another 16 spent on the operation of motorcycles, The most
extensive course !s 52 hours on highway law.

Also, 27 hours ave spent in physical training. This includes box-
Ing, wrestling, judo and basketball. Thirty hours are devoted to
pistol practice on a range. Speech and business English are also
taught,

The Big Chisel

Nobody knows better than the civil service
worker how the Republicans can chisel on the
wages and conditions of government employes.

Remember how Fisenhower fought to limit

federal pay raises to 5°o — despite the 14%
rise in the pay of privately employed white
collar people?

And did you know that 63°% of the Republi-
cans in the House voted against a modest 8.2%

increase for the cruelly underpaid postal work-
ers? The raise went through only because 99°
of the Democrats supported it.

The Eisenhower administration has fired
many hundreds of career employes to make jobs
for party hacks. The morale of federal workers

has sunk to a dangerous low,

The Fair Deal

Bob Wagner has given better treatment to
civil service employes than any Mayor in the
history of New York City. The Wagner admin-
istration—

@ [nstalled a modern Career and Salary Plan
with $50,000,000 in raises

During his nineteen years in the Legislature, Senator

he has successfully sponsored the legislation revising the entire
Civil Service Law to as fo make all governmental employees
of the State, counties and municipalities eligible either for
retirement system benefits under State Law or Social Secur-
ity eligibility under Federal Law. He deserves the wholeheart-

ed support of all friends of Civil Service.

Workers Shows That

As a Congressman he testified in committee for
and voted on the floor of the House of Representa-
tives for Civil Service salary increases and merit
raises for postal workers; vigorously opposed and
voted against the Whitten Amendment which would
have restricted Civil Service pensions to compensate
for higher living costs; persistently advocated an
honest peometicn system for government employees;
was a leader in the fight for effective rent controls
to protect Workers with fixed salaries.

As Attorney General he cracked down on the
second mortgage racket in Queens County, moved
in on debt consultant frauds, bogus installment buy-
ing schemes and mail order gyps.

and ways and means of correcting |
any inequities that may have aris- |

The Barrett-Gittleson bill was
kept in Committee in both Houses
of the Legislature despite consid~
erable pressure from the members
of the Legislature to pass this bill
Apparently its feilure of passage
Was attributable to a higher level
agreement between the Governor |
and the leaders of the Legisiature |
to defer action on Social Security
until next year,

This inference finds support in
the statement made to that effect |
by the Governor in his veto mos- |
sage to the Van Lare-Hatch bill an |
the same subject. The Van Tase~|

ment referred to above, slipped

he found in the legislation,

Support From Levitt

The intense interest in the As-
sociation supplementation program
® great boost in May of
this year when a member of the
Administration, State Comptroller
Arthur Levitt, publicly advocated
a supplementation plan which par-
allels in all but minute detail the
program advocated by the Asso-
elation in the last Legislature.

By recent amendment to the
Federal Social Security Law, the
situation was improved even fur-
ther with respect to participation
by members of public employee re~
tirement, systems, According to an
opinion received from John Kel-
ly, Jr. Association Counsel, the
amendment to the Federal Law
would permit those members of
public retirement systems who did
not wish Soctal Security to reject

Blueprint For Action Given
To Assure Social Security

5, The committee should hold
mass meetings of employees for
the purpose of describing and ex-
plaining the benefits which will
accrue to the public employees by
the addition of full supplementa-
jon, The speakers at these meet-
ings should be persons sufficient-
ly well versed in the operation of
both the Social Security program
and the Employees Retirement
System so as to be able to handle
themselves well during the ques-
ton periods which Inevitably will
follow any of these meetin

6. In the event, it becomes ne-
cessary to inyolve the general
public of the Jocality, the com-
mittee should take steps to utilize
all the facilities involving mass
media in their community. These
media consist of:

(a) Newspapers, both dally and

weekly.

(b Radio and, or television,

(ce) Local eivic groups as sere

vice clubs, P.'T.A.s ete,

The public of your local com~
munity should be involved in the
Seeial Security question onty
a last resort, The problems of So-
cial Security and employees te-
trement are 90 complicated that
ven the public employee has dif-
ficulty to fully understand them,
tt is therefore a risk to involve

the genzral public in this dis-
cussion unless it is mbsolutely
necessary.

df No Boundaries

‘7. In certain areas of the state,
it may be necessary for the com-
mittee from one county organt-
pation to cross county lines in
thelr campaing work, Not all of
the counties in the state have ci-
vil employee organizations, and
thus it may be necessary to in-
creane the geographical areas
which a few committees may have
to cover.

8, It ts important for good or-
ganizational work that the com-
mittee should be the focal point

Priority Asked

Because of the necessity of the

members residing in hia district to
be certain that he understands the
employee program on Social Se-

facilities of the Association should
be utilized beginning immediately
to disseminate information con-
cerning the program to employees,

Although the developments of

the accomplishment of Social Se~

at the 1057 session, It ls by no

continuation of the intense intereat
