All State Talks Collapse;
File Charges In PST Issue

(Special to The Leader)

ALBANY—Contract talks between the Civil Serivee Employees Assn. and the State
of New York covering 147,000 state workers in all four Bargaining Units represented by
CSEA collapsed late last week after more than four months at the table.

CSEA declared official impasses in talks affecting the 41,000-member Professional,

Scientific and Technical Bar-
gaining Unit last Wednesday and
in the 39,000-member Adminis-
trative Services Unit and the
24,000-member Operational Ser-
vices Unit on Thursday. The
largest of the four CSEA Units,
the Institutional Services Unit,
declared an impasse about a
month ago and, after unsuccess-

ful mediation, is just entering
fact-finding. Mediation was re-
quested by CSEA in the dispute
involving the PS&T, Administra-
tive and Operational Units.

In an added development,
CSEA late last week filed an im-
proper practice charge against the
state relative to the PS&T Unit

negotiations, charging that the
State had failed to negotiate in
good faith with that Unit's ne-
gotiating team.

CSEA reported little or no
progress at the tables since the
start of contract talks late last
year

Computer May Become Bargaining
Tool In Onondaga’s Negotiations

SYRACUSE—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has entered preliminary discussions
with representatives of the American Arbitration Association, the Public Employment Re-
lations Board, and Onondaga County on a “revolutionary concept in collective bargaining”
involving the use of computers to assist in contract negotiations

According to Joseph J. Dolan
Jr., vesistant executive director-
county for CSEA, the pilot pro-

Gallagher Explains Needs For Dues Increase

delegates, gathering at a
special delegate meeting

March 14-18 at the Concord Ho-
tel here, are expected to be asked
to approve the first increase in
CSEA dues since Oct. 1, 197

The request for a motion to
increase the general dues will
come at the conclusion of CSEA
treasurer Jack Gallagher's report
to the delegates. The report will
outline @ deficit spending history
over the past months

enlarged membership service pro-
gram and inflationary trends in
neral economy

Mr. Gallagher will suggest
three dues increase alternati
with total annual dues estab:

lished at $71.50, $78.00 and $84.50
per member respectively

The present CSEA dues struc-
ture has been set at $45.50 per
year since 1972. It ranks as the
lowest dues among leading labor
organizations in the state, CSEA’s
statewide officers, after reviewing

the total financial picture along
with future cost projections, have
recommended a minimum dues
increase to $71.50 per year per
member

Any dues increase approved by
the delegates, however, will be
coupled with an efficiency and
cost reduction program affecting
all areas of CSEA, The statewide
officers have suggested improved
control over administrative trav-
el, establishment of a vacancy
control plan for CSEA Headquar-
ters, and @ closer review of appli-

cations for legal services as part
of the program.

crease 1s designed to eliminate
the present deficit financial situ-
ation and provide a modest an-
ticipated surplus for emergency
purposes, while improving mem-
ber services. The minimum rec-
ommended increase would also
allow a $3 per member contribu-
tion to the union's contingency
fund and, it is hoped, avoid fur-
ther requests for dues increases
through 1979.

determination on testing the ap-
proach has yet been reached, Mr.
Dolan said.

CAN Is a research project of
the AAA designed to explore the

potential contribution of the
computer to resolve conflicts.
The concept is that data avail-

able in public employment col-
lective bargaining are often in-
adequate, irraccurate or in a form
difficult to readily use. Each
side, asa result, often bargains
using different, and conflicting,
information and data.

Under CAN, both sides would
use the computer to provide an
agreed-upon set of data for re-
search, and then have use of the
computer available to determine
how various proposals would fit
into specified contract criteria,
such as cost factors.

Additional briefings between
all parties involved will be con-
ducted before determination to
enter into the pilot project is
made by CSEA

Carey Sets Human
Rights Observance .

ALBANY—

Gov. Hugh L. Carey has proclaimed Friday,

March 12, “Human Rights Day” throughout New York State
in commemoration of the enactment of the New York State
Human Rights Law, the oldest in the nation, on March

12, 1945.

Affixing the official State Seal
proclaiming the 31st year of the
statute, Governor Carey noted
that “New York became the first
state to pass legislation designed
to prevent practices of discrim-
ination in employment because
of race, creed, color or national
origin, For the first time the
right to employment without
discrimination was affirmed in a
state law as a civil right.”

During its 31-year history, 66
amendments have been added to
the Human Rights Law, which is
administered by the Division of

Human Rights, successor to the
Commission on Human Rights
and the Commission Against
Discrimination. These amend-
ments include the prohibition of
discrimination in the areas @
employment, housing, education
and public accommodation, be-
cause of race, creed, color, na-
tional origin, age and sex

Under the administration of
Human Rights Commissioner
Werner H, Kramarsky, the law
now forbids discrimination based
upon marital status in the
granting of credit; expands
downward to 16-year-olds the
age category protected from em-
ployment bias; includes “‘disabil-@
ity” in the list of reasons for
barring discrimination, and pro-
hibits racial, religious, sexual
boyeotts and blacklisting.

As a result of the changes of
the Human Rights Law, more
residents of the Empire State are
protected against discrimination
and more persons are availing
themselves of this protection.

Commenting on the Gover-
nor’s Proclamation, Commission-@,
er Kramarsky noted that “From
1945 to 1949, this agency pro-
cessed approximately 1,600 com-
plaints of discrimination; 5,114
complaints were taken in 1975
alone. It is fairly obvious then,
that discrimination still exists,
and that there is still much work
to be done to fulfill the mandate
of the New York State Legisia~
ture and of our Governor.”

Reasons Given For Impasse
Calls In Four State Units

(Special to The Leader)

ALBANY—William McGowan, executive vice-president of the Civil Service Employees
Assn., has made public a list of some of the proposals the state administration has made at
the bargaining table that contributed to the union's declaration of impasses in all four
CSEA-represented Negotiating Units.

“The contracts for 150,000
state employees run out on
March 31, and the state doesn't
seem to care,” he sald. “They
have continued to make ridicu-
lous demands at the bargaining
table which would bury the state
workers financially at a time

Costa Opposes Affiliation; Claims
* AFSCME Distorts His Comments

ALBANY—A. Victor Costa, a statewide director of the Civil Service Employees Assn.,
has expressed strong opposition to affiliation of his organization with any other union.

Mr. Costa, who is also vice-chairman of CSEA’s expansion committee, until recently
charged with exploring the desirability of affiliation for CSEA, specifically ruled out the

merger currently sought by the
American Federation of State,
County and Municipal Employees,
@ nationwide AFL-CIO public
employee union.

In releasing a statement to the
Civil Service Leader, Mr. Costa
said he “had no choice but to
make his views known at this
time," to counter “false reports"
in recent AFSCME publications
that he favored an alliance and
that he had promoted the idea
at meetings with CSEA members,

“They actually quoted remarks
that I had never made in pro-
Jecting a false impression of the
facts I presented to various CSEA
membership meetings as a repre-
sentative of the expansion com-
mittee.

“On the contrary, in speaking
to CSEA groups, as I did in one
instance AFSCME cited before
the OGS chapter in Albany, I
was simply reporting to them in
general on the fact that our
committee had received and
looked into requests from most
of the major unions in the coun-
try asking CSEA for dialogue re-
garding some type of merger or
affiliation,” Mr. Costa explained,

Following is his statement to
The Leader:

“CSEA should not affiliate with
any union or employee represen-
tative group, directly or indirect-
ly. CSEA ts self-sufficient and
effective in representing public
employees in all jurisdictions of
government in New York State

“The key question is, why is
there so much interest in CSEA?
The answer is, of course, other
unions see a financial gain in a
CSEA affiliation.

“Under the current APSCME
proposal, the Association would
have to raise its income about
its present or future dues struc-
ture by $28.80 per member per
year for an annual total of
$6,480,000, all of which would go
directly to maintaining an inter-
national union and, for which,
we are told CSEA would receive
certain services. The question is
—what services?

“CSEA has 238 staff members.
‘This staff services 230,000 mem-
bers in 317 local chapters and 602
units within New York State.
APSCME services a nationwide
membership of 100,000 with a
staff of about 500.

‘CSEA spends nearly $1 mil-
Mon @ year for legal assistance to
its members, providing competent
attorneys conveniently located

throughout the state.
“Over 1,000 contracts are ne-
gotiated annually by CSEA's

elected officials, professionally
trained collective bargaining spe-
cialists and field staff. After a

A. VICTOR COSTA

contract is negotiated, it is ser-
viced by our own locally based
staff, which is on call 24 hours
a day, seven days a week, in Re-
gion offices located throughout
the state.

“We have our own research
and public relations specialists in
each regional office and at head-
quarters in Albany as well as
modern computer services,

“Our legal staff has won land-
mark decisions. While other un-
ions were bargaining away nego-
tiated employee benefits and
funds recently, CSEA was in
court protecting pensions and
fighting layoffs,

“CSEA members receive all
these services from dues which
fare the lowest in the country.
Furthermore, we rebate 25 per-
cent of members’ dues back to
their chapter while the balance
remains for general purpose ex-
penditures,

“AFSCME says that CSEA will
realize ‘increased political clout’
by affiliating. This is a smoke
screen. For nearly 70 years, CSEA
members have received some of
the best benefits offered to pub-
le employees anywhere in this
country, These benefits were won
through CSEA’s legislative lobby

and negotiations with state lead-
ers, without the help of any other
union, Our CSEA representatives
attend legislative sessions daily
Are competing unions there?

“AFSCME also claims that af-
filiation will put an end to chal-
lenges by them. While APSCME
was talking affiliation with
CSEA, they were challenging us
for the bargaining rights to 1,100
Social Services Department em-
ployees in Suffolk County. A
merger will not guarantee that
other unions will not challenge
us.

“It is true that AFSCME's
proposal will give us a voice on
their national board of directors.
Yet, how effective would one
CSEA representative, out of 24
be on that board and who will
really care about the problems of
New York State? CSEA might al-
so find itself involved in the
many jurisdictional disputes of
other unions with which we have
nothing in common.

“Recently, Jerry Wurf, APSC-
ME president, withdrew AFSCME
from the Public Employee De-
partment of the AFL-CIO be-
cause, he admitted, ‘It is domi-
nated by private sector unions.
Why would we want to become
@ part of that?

“Finally, in every corporate,
social or governmental merger,
there is always an eventual ab-
sorption; this is how conglom-
erates grow and expand, CSEA
has spent 65 years maintaining
its independence. A merger with
APSCME at this time would seri-
ously threaten this independence.
an accomplishment achieved
through the work of thousands of
CSEA officers and members who
have volunteered their time to
help make CSEA the strong
leader of public employees it is
today,

“If all these factors can only
hinder CSEA’s stature, than why
does AFSCME still pursue us?
The answer, again, is money—
$6.6 million dollars—every year,
forever, In return, they offer ser-
vice and representation for CSEA
members which cannot be any
better than they already have.

“In reality, it is APSCME, not
CSEA, who will be helped, Affili-
ate or merge under these condi-
tions? My opinion is no.”

Pass your copy of The
Leader on to a non-member.

when they are already desper-
ately behind.”

Mr. McGowan listed 12 of the
demands the state has made
which he feels would have the
most serious effect on state
workers, “Aside from the fact
that they are offering no raise
at all, for the second year in a
row, That in itself would be a
serious blow to the employees.”

®@ The Carey Administration
has proposed to take away the
employees’ right to paid sick
leave on the first day of any
absence due to sickness. This
would mean that every one-day
sickness would have to be
charged against an employee's
accrued vacation or personal
leave days, Those employees who
don’t have any vacation days
left would have to take the day
without pay.

© The state has said at the
bargaining table that it wants
to reduce the number of addi-
tional vacation days employees
can earn each year. For example,
state workers now get one extra
vacation day after one year's
service, two extra days after two
years, and so on. The state wants
to change that to no additional
days after one year, one day
after two years, and so on.

© The state ts also trying to
limit the number of accumulated
vacation days for which workers

cam get paid f when
they retire or are otherwise sep-
arat from service. They now

have the wht to get paid for
up to 30 such vacation days, but
the state wants to knock this
down to 10. This proposal would

also greatly reduce the employ-
ees’ final average salary, which
would in turn lower their pen-
sions

©@ The state is also trying to
cut personal leave from five to
three days per year.

© Another Carey proposal is
to termimate the employees’ den-
tal plan as of April 1

© The administration would
also raise the number of hours
in the workweek to 40 for those
employees who now work a 374
hour week.

© A monthly parking fee to
workers who use state parking
facilities has been proposed.

©@ The state also wants to

eliminate overtime and
Junch allowances,

@ Another Carey idea is to
take away jury duty payments.

@ An important reduction in
benefits would occur if the state
won its demand for changing the
conditions under which Work-
men’s Compensation leave is
granted. making it more diffi-
cult for employees to get such
leave. The state also wants to re-
duce Workmen's Compensation
benefits,

© Two final proposals the
state has made would especially
hurt workers who are members
of CSEA, One would forbid the
use of union leave, for commit-
tee and convention time, for ex-
ample, unless paid for by CSEA.
Another would allow other
unions to use CSEA bulletin
boards, meeting space and ac-
cess to employees 90 days prior
to the start of a representation
challenge period. These changes
would put a great drain on the
dues paid by CSEA members,
Mr. McGowan pointed out, in-
volving dues that would other-
wise be spent in direct member
services

Mr. McGowan stressed that
these are not the only detrimen-
tal proposals made by the state

meal

during negotiations, “But they

are the ‘dirty dozen’ as far as

state employees are concerned.

because they would be among

e most harmful if they were
effected.

MORE ON LULUS

New York Assistant Solicitor General Jean Coon said the At-
torney General's office has filed an appeal with the State Appeliate
Court on a lower court decision that ordered lawmakers to return
about $882,500 in “lulus” or stipends paid in lieu of expenses.
Since all legislative “lulus” are back in the proposed 1976-77 state
budget, it is likely they will be approved—despite a Supreme Court
ruling that they are unconstitutional—once again before a ruling
comes down on the appeal. However, it is anticipated that State
Comptroller Arthur Levitt will withhold payment of the latest round
of “lulus” until the courts give a final ruling.

LABOR PRIORITIES

Seymour Posner (D-Bronx), chairman of the State Assembly
Labor Committee, is polling state labor leaders to determine their
priorities for 1976. The poll, distributed to more than 300 labor
officials around the state, seeks to find the relative importance in
the minds of the leaders of 13 possible measures now before the
commitiee. The measures are: outlawing professional strikebreaking;
requiring that Labor Department forms be printed in two or more
languages in areas containing large numbers of foreign language-
speaking residents; providing collective bargaining rights for house-
hold workers; prohibiting the use of lie detectors by employers; pro-
viding a two-week layoff notice; providing higher unemployment
insurance benefits; determining unemployment insurance payroll
tax rates by averaging all industry instead of on the basis of
individual company “merit” ratings; providing unemployment in-
surance for public employees; setting workmen's compensation bene-
fits to higher standards set by the National Commission on Work-
men's Compensation; providing disability payments for pregnancy;
setting a higher minimum wage; eliminating tips as part of the
minimum wage standard; setting nine or 10 percent bidding prefer-
ences for state companies on state projects; providing an agency shop,
and providing collective bargaining rights for agricultural workers.
WESTCHESTER CONSOLIDATION

Westchester County Executive Alfred B, DelBello has been meet-
ing with Yonkers officials to explore the possibilities of consolidating
all Westchester County services in Yonkers under a single roof.
At present there are seven separate functions of county govern-
ment operating branch offices in Yonkers. These include Social
Services, Probation, Family Court and the Community Mental
Health Board's Mental Health Clinic, all located at 70 Ashburton
Ave.; an Alcoholism Clinic and a Special Children’s Clinic at 53
South Broadway; the Yonkers Auto Bureau at 925 Midland Ave.,
ind both the Health Department and District Attorney's Office at
87 Nepperhan Ave. According to the County Executive, any alterna-
tive arrangements arrived at would make every effort to insure that
the property accommodating these government offices would re-
main on the Yonkers tax rolls.

REPLACE COMMISSION

A report prepared by the staff of a special state commission
studying government efficiency has proposed replacing the State
Civil Service Commision with a cabinet level post of state personnel
director, United Press International reported last week. UPI quoted
the report as saying the change would increase the number of ap-
pointive jobs at top management levels while giving agency heads
greater discretion in policy matters. The news service said a part of
the report notes the three-member commission makes the system of
hiring public employees “autonomous from the elective process since
the public has no way of protesting against performance." On public
sector unions, the report notes they “provide a second personnel sys-
tem, which together with the Civil Service System, have a stifling
effect in the public sector.” It goes on to state that a personnel
director appointed by a governor would “increase managerial dis-
cretion so that, when bargaining with unions, public managers can
ask for increased productivity in return for employee protection.”

OFFICER AGE CUTOFF

‘The state's highest court, the Court of Appeals, has ruled con-
stitutional the action of the State Civil Service Commission in es-
tablishing 32 years of age as the maximum for applicants seeking
examination and appointment as correction officers. In a suit brought
by William Figueroa, of New York City, the Court of Appeals ruled
that Article V, Section 6 of the State Constitution, which sets forth
the rule that appointments and promotions in civil service shall be
made by merit and fitness as ascertained by competitive examina~
tion, “does not, however, preclude the adoption of age requirements.”
‘The Court, in its unanimous opinion, noted that Legislature by ex~
plicit provision of Section 54 of the Civil Service Law, recognized
the right of civil service commissions to adopt “reasonable minimum
or maximum age requirements for open competitive examination for
positions such as policemen, firemen, prison guards, or other posi-
tions which require extraordinary physical effort, except where age
Mmits for such positions are already prescribed by law.” Finding
no such age limit for correction officers in the law, the Court of
Appeals said the Civil Service Commission therefore established 32
years as & maximum age and that act was valid.

BANKING HEAD

John G. Heinmann, a New York City investment banker, received
unanimous State Senate confirmation as state banking superinten-
dent. He has been acting superintendent since June 1975; the post
pays $47,000 annually. Mr, Heinmann, 46, was most recently senior
vice-president of E. M. Warburg, Pincus & Co., Inc.

Bill Is Introduced To Eliminate
Mandatory Age 65 Retirement

By ALAN BERNSTEIN

ALBANY—State workers reaching the mandatory retirement age of 65 may not have
to step down if a bill introduced last week in the State Assembly becomes law. Besides pro-
hibiting governmental agencies from forcing retirement at 65, the legislation would also

apply to private employers.

“The bill represents a radical
departure from past practices
and attitudes concerning the
elderly," said Assembly Speaker
Stanley Steingut (D-Brooklyn).
He added that the bill is part
of the Assembly Democrat ma-
jority’s legislative program in
1976. He said the general view
that a person should retire at
65 was “arbitrary” and “intol-
erable in human terms and not
affordable in economic terms.”

Assemblyman Thomas R. For-
tune (D-Brooklyn), chairman of
the Assembly's Committee on
Aging and sponsor of the legis-
jation, sald the measure would
supersede existing state laws
that set mandatory retirement
ages for judges and state police.
Tt would also prohibit the in-
clusion of mandatory retirement
requirements in union agree-
ments.

“Our bill would not prevent
people who wish to retire from
doing so," said Assemblyman
Fortune, “but by doing this now
we can help the elderly continue
their careers ff they want to,
contribute more pension funds
and draw out a smaller amount
of such funds after they do re-
tire.”

William Banks, the Assembly-
man's aide, explained the legisia-
tion does not necessarily mean
“job security.” State workers
reaching 65 would be evaluated
ws to their competence, fitness
and reliability to perform the
jobs they hold. Positions such as
fimefighters and police, which
seed fitness and mental alert-
ness, he sald, would be scruti-
nized very closely

According to the aide, the

philosophy of the measure is
the conclusion of the committee
mambers after 1975 statewide
hearings that mandatory retire-

ments are discriminatory. He
said the requirements force peo-
ple out of work without regard
to their qualifications to do a
particular job.

Other members of the com-
mittee include Fred Pied (R-

Albany), Ronald Soott( D-L,
Onondaga), Henry Dwyer (R-
Nassau), Robert D'Andrea (R-
Saratoga), Jean Amatucei (D-

Orange, Sullivan), and Andrew
Virgilio (D-Monroe).

‘The hearings showed that
workers in the public sector,
many with solid pension plans,
appeared less likely to take ad-
vantage of the bill's provision
than those in the private sector.

The measure is viewed by the

elderly mostly as a civil rights
measure, said the aide, but by
the committee as both civil
rights and an economic issue. He
said society has drifted away
from the idea of “the extended
family” that would care for el-
derly, and that this had led to
the generation of such costly
programs as Supplemental Se-
curity Income Maintenance,
Medicare and Medicaid. The
proposed legislation is one way
of cutting costs, he said.

Mr. Banks, who said he be-
lieves the bill stands a good
chance for passage in the As-
sembly, added it will take quite
a while until a trend can be
seen.

“But feedback from constitu-
ents shows a great deal of senti-
ment for the legislation,” he
said.

Main opposition is expected—
not from employers—but from
people unfamiliar with the bill's
intentions, Mr. Bank observed.
To combat this, the committee
is expected to begin a campaign
to familiarize the public with it.

Assemblyman Field, the rank-
ing minority member on the
committee, said the bfll deserves
close examination because it
could benefit the state economi-
cally. An opponent of lowering
the mandatory retirement age,
he said the bill could make it
possible for the state to even-
tually retire higher paid older
workers and replace them with
lower paid younger ones.

Assemblyman Stott believes
there will be little opposition to
the measure in the Legislature.

“There is merit in the con-
cept.” he said.

War Of Independence

N this Bicentennial year, it is fitting to remember that
even after the American colonies declared their inde-

pendence in 1776, it took another five years of war to achieve
that status as a matter of fact.

And, even then, independence had to be rewon by the
War of 1812, often referred to as the Second War for Inde-
pendence, because Britain continued to regard the United
States as being in the British domain, This war was brought
to a head by the continuing impressment of American sailors
into the British navy, because their philosophy was “once
British, always British.”

Times have changed, of course, and now the United
States and the United Kingdom are regarded as close allies,
with a community of interest based on their common lan-
guage, traditions of democracy and heritage of law.

In like manner, the Civil Service Employees Assn. has
been especially beleaguered in recent years by continual
attempts by AFL-CIO unions to topple the 65-year old CSEA
from its position as the largest independent union repre-
senting public employees.

The latest onslaught is by the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal Employees. One spokesman for
that union was quoted recently in a Syracuse interview as
saying AFSCME was prepared to spend up to $25 million
in representation challenges unless CSEA agreed to affiliate
with it.

The irony of the AFSCME $25-million figure can be
realized when a recent statement by CSEA president Theo-
dore C. Wenzl is taken into account.

Dr. Wenzl noted that CSEA had spent about $2.5 million
in fighting off challenges during the past four years. Yet,
during that time, if CSEA had been affiliated with AFSCME,
the Employees Association would have turned over $26 mil-
lion in increased dues to AFSCME, Thereby, Dr. Wenzl reck-
oned, his union had saved its members $24 million during
that four-year period.

It is difficult to argue with such hard facts.

It is equally difficult to understand how AFSCME can
throw down the gauntlet to CSEA at a time when critical
negotiations are being conducted with the state on contracts
for state workers,

. We think it would be far more to the workers’ benefit
if AFSCME would spend more effort in improving the lot
of its members throughout the nation rather than festering
@ war between public employees in New York State.

Let the AFSCME leadership engage in its struggle for
power within the AFL-CIO: The leadership of CSEA has
more important things to do in working out an equitable
contract settlement for its state employees (as well as those
in local government areas that are also involved in contract
negotiations).

of New York continually coming
unglued fiscally and state fi-
nanctal stability tottering dan-
gerously, everyone is anxiously
eyeing the banking community
as the only school of medicine
that can put Humptey-Dumptey
back together again.

Both the city and state need
to sell bond issues to secure a
sound anchor for riding out the
current fiscal storms. But buyers
are extremely wary of the
strength of such bond issues and
banking purchases are absolute-
ly necessary to bolster confl-
dence in the safety of such in-
vestments

Both city and state—and local
government units everywhere in
New York — need there new
funds desperately to operate, and
public employees have to have
assurances that there are the
monies needed in the till for civil
service payrolls.

For this simple reason alone,
&@ good many public employees
could heave one slight sigh of
rellef ast week when the major
New York banks pledged to pur-
chase the first billion dollars
worth of new notes needed for
the two-and-one-half billion dol-
lar package the state will float
to get through the current crisis.

Phase Il A Worry

The second step in the state's
selling plan—for various retire-
ment systems to purchase these
new bonds, too—causes some
mixed emotions, however. Civil
seryants are being told that such
sales are an investment in the
future of public employees. At
the same time, however, state
and local government employees
throughout the state are being
told they must see things
through by means of even fur-
ther sacrifices—wage freezes,
pension benefit reductions, cut-
backs in other worker benefits,
ete. In other words, public em-
ployees are being told to en-
courage use of their pension
funds to save the state and its
cities in what could be termed
a risky financial venture and, at
the same time, are told to lay
off asking anything back in
terms of their own security and
future.

Tt is a grossly unjust position
for any employee to have to put
the years of his labor into. But
at the moment there doesn't
seem amy other way out as far
as the first step—bond purchases
—is concerned.

A Dismissal Appeal

In Decemier 1974, each of the petitioners in this case
was duly appointed Workmen's Compensation referee to fill
positions for which appropriations had been made in the New
York State budget for the fiscal year commencing April 1,
1974, Subsequently, the chairman of the Workmen’s Com-
pensation Board notified each of the petitioners that his
position would be abolished as of Jan. 22, 1975. The notice
stated that the positions were being abolished in accordance
with an oral directive from the Director of the Budget. Peti-
tioners contended in their Article 78 proceeding that their
dismissal on Jan, 22, 1975 was illegal. The respondents did
not answer the petition but moved to dismiss the petition
on the grounds that as a matter of law, the action of the
Director of the Budget in advising the Workmen's Compen-
sation Board Chairman to terminate these positions was
not reviewable in this proceeding. Special term decided in
favor of the respondents, Petitioners appealed.

aril ere

THE WORKMEN'S Compensation Law provides that
referees are appointed for seven-year terms. Their salaries
are payable by the Workmen’s Compensation Board within
appropriations made for that purpose and may be removed
by the Workmen's Compensation Board only after a notice
of charges and an opportunity for a hearing. The Director
of the Budget had no power to remove the petitioners, and
the Chairman of the Workmen's Compensation Board like-
wise had no power to remove them without a hearing. The
Appellate Court initially pointed out that the Article 78
proceeding was the proper method of reviewing the actions
taken in this case. The respondents also argued that they
had the authority to abolish positions, which was different
from a dismissal, and therefore no hearing was required.
The petitioners concede that the Legislature could have, by
direct action, reduced their terms of office or otherwise
affected their status as public employees. However, there
was nothing in the record to indicate that the Legislature
had taken any action to affect the petitioners’ employment,
The court observed that the issue here is whether or not
the Legislaturé delegated its authority to the Director of
the Budget.

Ae em

‘THE WORKMEN'S Compensation Law is structured so
that the chairman submits an estimated budget to the
State's Budget Director. The Board may not spend more
than the itemized amounts specified in its budget unless
authorized by the Director. While the papers before the
court indicate that the Director did not approve the pro-
posed budget for the 1975-1976 year insofar as the petition-
ers’ salaries were concerned, the Workmen's Compensation
Law does not give the Director of the Budget the power to
either create or abolish positions which may be created and
‘tilled only by the Workmen's Compensation Board, His power
goes only to the approval or disapproval of the budget pro-
posed by the Workmen's Compensation Board, and there-

Bauch Disputed

Editor, The Leader:

Leader columnist Herbert 5.
Bauch complains that it is a
bad thing that New York City
cops and firemen should only be
rehired if they live in the city.
I think the idea is great and
should go for all city employees;
I think most New Yorkers would
agree.

On Feb, 2, in my section, I
was the only city worker of 10
to come in during the big snow-
storm, I live in the elty; 8/9ths
of the others do not.

Mr. Bauch also thinks that
cops who refuse reinstatement
using federal funds should con-
tinue to receive unemployment
insurance even though they've
turned down the exact job and
money they wish. That's ludi-
erous

What's Your Opinion

By SUSAN DONNER

QUESTION
Do you thing the Federal government should take over welfare
payments currently underwritten by New York City and State?

THE PLACE

OPINIONS

Margaret Kogan, Administrative Assistant: “TI
think it's long overdue. I think
the federal government has been
leaving the burden of welfare
Payments on New York City. We
get more than our share of im-
migrants and welfare clients
and I think it will make a very
big difference to New York's
economic position. New York
City’s money could then be di-
rected into other areas where
it would benefit the middle
class, especially to maintain essential services
like education. I have young children and think
it's criminal what's going on in school. The end
result would be possibly an improvement of the
quality of life in the city.”

¥

George Strott, Salesman: “I feel it would greatly
benefit New York City. I think
it’s the responsibility of the fed-
eral government to support
these people that are coming
in from other states and other
countries and becoming the ob-
ligation of New York City. They
come here, collect welfare and

William Tendy, Attorney; “I think if the local
governmental organizations dp-
erated the welfare program in
the manner in which it should
be operated, they'd be able to
operate it efficiently. If that's
not possible, I suppose, we might
be better off getting it done by
the federal government. The
word seems to have gotten
around to the rest of the coun-

P try that New York City 1s prob-
ably one of the simplest places

to come to for a free hand out. That's why I'm

sure many of them are here. However, if any

American citizen comes to this part of the United

States from any other part of the United States

I think that we all have an obligation toward that

American citizen. Of course, we have no assur-

ance that the federa) government is going to

run things any more efficiently,

Julie Cialdella, New York State Assembly Speak-
er’s Office: “I think the whole
welfare program is run terribly.
| There are millions of dollars be-
ing collected under false pre-
tenses for people who don't
really need it. I think maybe if
the federal government took it

TO THE EDITOR

terrents, Not every employee's
function is to be a crime deter-
rent and to cite these people is
illogical

His suggestions, when finally
made, are quite reasonable but
offer no solutions to the problems
that he 1s attempting to remedy.
For instance, his case of an as-
sistant district attorney who was
almost tossed in the clink (for
contempt) while @ prisoner was
released, He claims that all these
“situations can be resolved,” etc.,
but doesn’t state how he'd solve
that one,

Does Mr, Bauch believe that
@m assistant D. A. could not pos-
sibly do anything to deserve a
contempt citation or that a pris-
oner might not be guilty?

Career Ladders
Editor, The Leader;

Well, the Department of Men-
tal Hygiene has done it again.
We are having another test for
Grade Eleven. We had one in
Rome about three years ago and
nO one got appointed, This car-
eer lJadder, as it is called, sure
didn't help the people that were
senior or staff attendants in
charge of wards,

When they first started talk-
ing about this career ladder we
were to go to Eleven but we got
sold out. The state has a lot
of people that lost out this way.
Now they are having another
test for people who should al-
ready have had this years ago
when the career ladder came out.
We had to carry on in charge of
these wards just the same with
no pay for it.

after he must control the expen-

for those items in the budget.

THE COURT pointed out that
the attempt by the Budget Di-
rector to approve certain line
items in part and thereby abolish
established positions exceeded his
power and authority, The court
went on to say that the position
of referee was created by the
Legislature with the power of
appointment given to the Work-
men’s Compensation Board.
Therefore, it follows that the
abolition of a position may be
‘ecomplished only by the Legis-
lature within the specified seven-
year term of incumbency, The
statute contains no delegation of
that power to the Director of the
Budget.

pviain us

THIS DECISION of the Ap-
pellate Division reversed the
lower court which had originally
held against the petitioners. The

programs were

ter. I also think it’s very un-
fair the way people migrate to
New York City and start collect~
ing welfare, The people who live

it, Something here and pay taxes and social security are the
the way it is ones who are entitled to its benefits, I think
this is one of the biggest reasons for the fiscal

crisis we are in today
Something must Russell Rowe, Director of “Alternatives to De-
so unfair, The tention” Program: I think the
lass has to work federal government should as-
t to get anythir sume the responsibility. New

York City 1s paying more than
its share. New York is burdened
more than other cities and
states around the country and
I think things should be more
evenly distributed, People come
here from other states because
they know that they can collect
welfare so easily. Maybe if wel-
transferred to the federal
would be run more efficiently.

‘They All Want Us,’ Wenz! Responds
To AFSCME Affiliate-Or- Else Threat

(By Leader Correspondent)

SYRACUSE—"The bigger they
are, the harder they fall," Civil
Service Employees Assn. presi-
dent Theodore C. Wenzl said in
responding to threats by a rival
union to either merge or face a
“bloodbath.”

Dr. Wenz] made the comments
to a gathering here of delegates
at a meeting of CSEA’s Syracuse
Region V at the Hotel Syra-
cuse last month.

“They all want us. I think
that is a compliment to us,” Dr
Wenal said, referring to the sabre-
rattling remarks made by a
spokesman for the American

Federation of State, County and
Municipal Employees as reported
in a Syracuse newspaper.

At the meeting, Assemblyman
Andrew Stein (D-L, Manhattan)
was principal speaker at a din-
ner that concluded the weekend
activities.

Mr. Stein pointed out that
“You can't change things unless
thousands of decent people like
you get involved,”

He was referring to the suc-
cess his legislative committee had
in uncovering irregularities with-
in the nursing home industry,
and how public anger kept the
issue from being swept under a

Among those attending the regional sessions were, from left, Willard Psychiatric Center chapter 428 of-
ficers Sara Wooledge Dawley, second vice-president; Doris Prats, secretary, and Marge Scoles, treasurer,

and Jefferson County chapter 823 president Eleanor Percy and vice-president Richard Grieco, who is also
president of the Watertown unit.

eiThe same anger must be
aroused in order to rectify the
abuses being uncovered by the @
CSEA/Stein Joint Committee to
Investigate Waste and Ineffici-
ency in Government,” he said.

‘The Assemblyman, who {s being
prominently mentioned as a con-
tender for United States Senator
this fall, warned that “the Civil
Service Merit System is facing its
greatest challenge since its in-
ception.

“We spend so much money for
services that do not reach the
people, But there is a tendency @
to make civil servants the scape-
goat for this. It’s not fair: They
are the ones who are suffer-
ing the most.”

At the general session earlier in
the day, CSEA vice-president
Richard Cleary, head of Region
V, discussed the status of con-
tract negotiations between CSEA
and the State.

He expressed pessimism on the
outcome of the negotiations, and @
reminded the delegates that the
“No Contract, No Work" man-
date is still in effect if a con-
tract has not been reached by
April 1

CSEA executive vice-president
William McGowan said that
books are being prepared in Al-
bany to instruct chapter presi-
dents on how to prepare for a
strike.

“Read them," Mr. McGowan

said. “Your negotiating teams are
against a wall. The State keeps
wanting to take things away, so
prepare now, so we can let them
know we'll fight to keep what
we've got.”

Mr. McGowan pointed out that
“You can always call off a strike,
but it’s difficult to start one if
you wait until two days before
to prepare for it.”

Mr. Cleary emphasized that
strike committees should be lined
up by April 1

A plea also was made for poli-
tical action donations. Mr, Cleary
said that dues probably will go
up and the delegates will vote
on the proposal at the coming

meeting at the Hotel Concord

‘I can assure you that our
financial situation merits this,
said Mr. Cleary, “Our legal ex-
penses alone have zoomed to $1
million from $300,000 a few
years ago. They'll probably go to
$2 million this year. The purpose
of @ union is to protect employ-
ees’ jobs, and it costs money to
do that.”

The delegates also were told
that CSEA has no interest in af-
filiating with any other union
and rumors to the contrary were
completely unfounded

Another area of major concern
to the delegates was the federal
Comprehensive Employment and
Training Act. At a state work-

shop meeting, Robert Lattimer,
Western Region VI president, said
that “field representatives are
going to have to learn CETA law”
to protect the members from
abuses. Another problem, he said.
is that CSEA's legal staff is over-
worked, but more attorneys are
promised.

Regional second vice-president
Patricia Crandall proposed a re-
solution that field representa-
tives and chapter presidents be
trained in CETA law so they in
turn could teach the membership.

Dale Dusharm, who was elected
vice-chairman of the Region's
State Workshop, and Irene Carr,
Region V secretary, expressed

Major Overhaul Of Mental
Hygiene Dep't Is Proposed

ALBANY—A complete overhaul of the state's Mental Hygiene system is proposed in
a 220-page report released by Assembly Speaker Stanley Steingut (D-Brooklyn).

The report is the result of “more,than nine months of intense study, including six
public hearings and 16 site visits by the Assembly Joint Committee to Study the Depart-

ment of Mental Hygiene,” Mr.
Steingut said. The joint com-
mittee is headed by Assembly-
men James W. McCabe Sr. (D-
Broome, Tioga) and John C.
Dearie (D-Bronx), Mr. McCabe
is chairman of the Assembly's
Mental Health Committee; Mr.
Dearie chairs the Wwys and
Means Subcommittee on Mental
Hygiene.

Speaker Steingut emphasized
the need for “bi-partisan action
in dealing with this statewide
problem. Our goal is to pass
legislation that will provide bet-
ter organized, more appropriate
mental hygiene services through-
out the state. We must recog-
nize also the need for mandated
citizen participation in all levels
of planning and decision-making
affecting this area,” he said.

The report recommends chang-
ing the state's Mental Hygiene
system from the current “dual”
system of state and loca! service:
to a unified, single system. Lo-
cal, regional und Department of
Mental Hygiene responsibilities
and authorities would be clearly
defined and allocated under a
unified system, the report said.

Levitt Reports
Social Services
Disbursements

ALBANY—State Comptrol-
ler Arthur Levitt has an-
nounced the distribution of
$87,043,372.52 for March to
57 Social Service Districts in the
state,

These monies represent ap-
proximately 90 percent of the
federal and state share of the
anticipated welfare expenditures
for March by the localities, as
well as a settlement of claims
for the month of December 1975.
‘The Federal share amounts to
$57,363,500.92

In addition, the Comptroller
mounced the distribution of
$55,689,900 in federal monies to
the City of New York for an-
Ucipated welfare expenditures for
the period March 1-15, New York
Clty was previously advanced
about $67 million in state funds
for the month of March. A pay-
ment of only federal monies will
be made to New York City on
March 15 for anticipated expen-
ditures for the last half of
March, Federal regulation re-
quires sem{-monthly payments to
New York City,

Punding would be rechanneled
accordingly.

Mr. McCabe emphasized the
need to develop community-
based care programs, noting that
“Over and over again our joint
committee heard testimony that
underscored the need to seek
ways to create new alternatives
to institutional care.”

“We have not done enough to
develop programs beyond those
at state institutions,” Mr. Me-
Cabe said

Mr. Dearie pointed out that
community opposition to in-
creased numbers of mental pa-
tients re-entering localities “Is
a major hurdle that must be
overcome if we are to achieve
community-based care programs
in this state. All our efforts will
be wasted if we cannot win the

CSEA To Represent

tation department's general
maintenance division.
Of 24 workers in the divi-

sion, 19 signed cards asking to
be affiliated with CSEA.

The maintenance workers thus
become the town's only unionized
employees. Treatment plant em-
ployees had belonged to another
union but left it last year

The Board's recognition of
CSEA excluded two positions the
CSEA wanted to have in member-
ship. The general foreman and
deputy general foreman were not
included, Town Supervisor Don-
ald A. Deming said, “because they
are strictly supervisory person-
nel.”

Maintenance work includes
overseeing the town's pumping
stations and sanitary sewers,

workers at numerous local hous-

state, the loca! authorities in
Albany and Syracuse are the
only ones thus far to request the

tiated salary plus an additional

concern that the State is now
attempting to force 12-month
employees to become 10-month
employees to save their jobs.

Mr. Dusharm urged those at
the workshop to refuse to be-
come 10-month employees. “It
will hurt all your benefits. Don’t
take it. My posture is to take
the layoff, then fight for your
job, But don’t volunteer to be
cut back to 10 months."

The Region V members also
were addressed by Martin Lang-
er, statewide legislative political
action chairman, who gave pri-
ority to getting the Taylor Law
modified. He called for legislation
to aid retired employees and a
program of reviewing the actions
of state legislators.

Eleanor Korchak, of Bingham-
ton, Region political action chatr-
man, opened the session with a
suggestion as to the proper ans-
wer to state layoffs.

“The only thing we have go-

ing for us is in political action,”
she said. “The statewide job lay-
offs, and the threat of more to
come, have spurred our efforts
to inform our elected legislators
where we stand as dedicated civil
service employees and taxpayers.

“If state budget cuts are fol-
lowed by more job cuts, collec-
tively we may issue some ‘pink
slips’ ourselves in the form o
some solid voting strengtM next
election day,” she said.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADE

Ballots Going
Out In CSEA
Board Voting

ALBANY —Ballots will be
posted Thursday, March 11,
in a special election for rep-
resentative to the Civil Ser-
vice Employees Assn. Board of
Directors from the State Depart-
ment of Audit and Control.

Bernard C, Schmahl, chairman
of CSEA’s special election proce-
dures committee, reminded Audit
and Control members that com-
pleted ballots must be returned
by 6 pm., Monday, March 29,
and will be counted beginning
at 10:30 a.m. the following day.

The post became vacant as the
result of the retirement of the
incumbent, Harold J. Ryan Jr.,
from state service

Candidates in this election are
Beatrice H. McCoy, Blanche O.
Wright, Robert M. Rhubin,
George LaPlante, John Randaz-
zo Jr, Daniel L. Vesneska and
Barbara L. Skelly

Talks Collapse

(Continued from Page 1)

“We stayed at the table as
long as we could, trying to get
the state started on talking about
the issues,” said CSEA president
‘Theodore C. Wenzl. “But they
simply refused to engage in real
negotiations and we had no
choice but to declare the im-
passe in each unit's talks.”

The talks broke down with less
than a month before the expira-
tion of existing contracts cover-
ing the four Units. CSEA dele-
gates last fall voted a mandated
strike if the contracts were not
renewed by April 1. Delegates
meeting at CSEA's special dele-
gates mecting March 14-18 at
the Concord Hotel, Kiamesha
Lake, are expected to receive de-
tailed reports on the progress of
negotiations—or the lack of it—
and reemphasize the edict con-
cerning the negotiations time-
table

“We hope that mediators can
get the talks on track quickly,
but if they can't, we're prepared
to move from mediation to fact-
finding quickly in an effort to
avoid a confrontation on April
1," Dr, Wenz said.

ALBANY—A campus security

CSEA Endorses A Study
In Albany And Syracuse
Of HA Incentive Program

for federal

SOCIAL SERVICES — Members of the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn.'s statewide social services committee held a two-hour
session in Syracuse last month to discuss topical issues with dele-
kates to the CSEA Syracuse Region V meeting at the Hotel Syracuse.
Committee members, from left, are, staff coordinator Phil Miller;

Al Shanks, of Erie County; Pat Spicei, Rockland County; chairman
Richard Tarmey, Montgomery County; Grace Vallee, Rensselaer
County; E. Ben Porter, Suffolk County, and Haward Quann, Nas-
sau County.

‘Me-Too’

(Continued from Page 1)
Putting this extra burden on our
negotiators simply impedes our
efforts.”

The PBA agreement, which
covers troopers and sergeants in
the main unit of State Police, is
essentially a one-year extension
of an existing contract. Besides
the “me-too” clause on salary,
the pact provides for the pay-
ment of annual increments to
those eligible and state absorp-
tion of cost increases in health
and dental insurance. The “me-
too” clause also applies to any
other benefits with a money
value which might be won by
another union now negotiating
with the state.

Beyond these items, the PBA
trooper pact includes a handful
of changes providing for the es-
tablishment of additional joint
Jabor - management committees,
inclusion of moonlighting in
labor - management discussions,
and extension of time to obtain
representation prior to interro-
gation when accused of viola-
tions.

Commenting on rumors at
presstime that a settlement for
state security employees might
be imminent, Dr. Wenzl specu-
lated that if this proved to be
the case, "I would bet they'd be
going the same route as PBA—
settling for a ‘me-too- clause that
would give them a free ride on
CSEA.”
