Pension Systems

WASHINGTON, May 1 — The
Senate Finance Committee sub-
mitted its report on the proposed
expansion of the Social Security
System, eliminating the possible
inclusion of State and local em-
ployees now members of their own
systems.

Thus the opposition waged by
The Civil Service Employees Asso-
ciation of New York State, the
Uniformed Fire Officers Associa-
tion, the Uniformed Fitemen’s As-
sociation, the Patrolmen's Benev-
olent Association, the Sanitation
Men's Local 111-A of the Building
Service Employees, the Joint Com-
mittee of Teachers Organizations
and other NYC groups against
such inclusion proved effective.

Chairman Walter F. George (D.,
Ga.) gave assurances that the en-
tire bill would be thoroughly de-
bated on the Senate floor,

The House passed the bill, H.R,
8000, permitting the optional in-
clusion of State and local govern:
ment employees now covered by/
thelr own systems, if two-thirds |
of the members of any system
| voted affirmatively. The Senate
|change permits those State and
local employees who are not cov-
jered by their own pension system
|to come under the Social Security

age-55 pension plan.

uiled in they must be mailed to
the New York State Employees
Retirement System, 256 Washing-
ton Avenue, Albany 1, N. Y.

The responsibility for seeing
that the filled-in blanks are so
mailed, and in time, rests with
the employee himself. The dead-
line for present members ts Dec~
ember 31, 1950. Newcomers into
service with the State or any sub-
division that is a party to the
State Retirement System is one

bers of the System.

Association Accomplishment

‘The new law, which was the
No. 1 legislative objective of The
Civil Service Employees Associa-

tion, provides increased pension |

benefits plus the optional retire-
ment at age 55. Compulsory re-
tirement age remains 70. Addi-
tional contributions required of |
the employee-member toward his
annuity account to bring It up
to probable parity with the

pen- |

on the same proportional basis.
Attractive Benefit
There has been an age-55 law

of the normal age-60 plan was
borne by the employee. The switch
from the old to the new is an
attractive benefit indeed. Pay-
ments made by the employee un-
der the old age-55 plan in excess
of the new rates may be credited
to him under the new plan, to

| make up arrears, or the excess
| of such payments over arrears
withdrawn or devoted to the pur-
chase of additional annuity.

Thrift Encouraged

The new plan encourages the
employee-members to bring their
annuity accounts up to full value,
so that the benefits the member

buys for himself will equal those
| provider by the State. Only in
| that way is the gap between em-
ployer-paid pension and an em-
ployee-paid smaller annuity ac-
count closed. Only by closing the
gap does half pay result after

State Employees’ Merit Award

Board, has announced two awards
to State employees for ideas sub-

and Certificate of Merit

JOHN H. DWYER of Hornell,
employed in the Department of
| Public Works, developed a cable|
|guard for attachment to power
| mowers that prevents serious in-

ployees the past three years. This
law provides that public employees
who lose their jobs shall be en-
titled to unemployment insurance
benefits on the same basis as pri-
vate employees. Efforts to extend
coverage to per diem employees
and those who have been em-
ployed for less than one year
were defeated by the Governor's
veto of the Halpern-Knauf Bill
which passed both Houses in the
1950 session of the Legislature.

Effect on Local Government

Under this law, iocal govern-
mental units stand a minimum of
expense in extending coverage to
their employees, These bodies do
not spend any money in advance,
| make no contributions to the Un-
employment Insurance Fund. They
| reimburse the Fund only for ben-
efits actually paid out to former
employees. They are billed at ap-
| propriate intervals for the ex-
pended moneys by the Division of

Placement and Unemployment |
Insurance, the guardian of the
Pund.

Each city, county, or other

unit of local government should |
elect to come under the provi-

ple. The local governing body or
officer files an application to elect
coverage with the Industrial Com-
missioner, State of New York,
Governor Alfred E. Smith State
Office Building, Albany 1, N. ¥,
To make its employees eligible
for benefits in the new benefit
r beginning June 5, 1950, the
local governmental unit must file
its application not later than the
last day of the current benefit
year, Sunday, June 4, 1950. To
make doubly sure all applications
ig be filed by Friday, June 2,
50.

Gets Charter
In Association

UTICA, May 1—Approximately
100 members and guests attended
the presentation of a charter to
Oneida chapter by J. Allyn
Stearns, 3rd vice president, Civil
Service Employees Association, at
@ charter dinner held in the Ho-
tel Utica.

In presenting the charter Mr.
Stearns pointed out the import-
ance and the responsibilities of
public employment and of the
right of the public employee to
be paid in accordance with these
responsibilities, as is done in pri-
vate enterprise. He stressed also
the need for cooperation by pub-
Ne officials with the employee or-
ganizations’ if the greatest gain
to the public service is to result
from the entrance of the powerful
Civil Service Employees Associa~
tion into Oneida County.

Much Is Expected

“In view of the splendid attend-
ance: by public officials at this
dinner, we look to this new chap-
ter to become one of our best
working units,” said Mr. Stearns
in presenting the charter.

Chapter President Herman L.
Stevens, who presided, accepted
the charter.

Mayor Boyd C. Golder of Utica,
welcomed the guests. Grace was
said by Father Leo Mock. Talks
were given by Charles R. Culyer,

troduced the guests, including

urer Johnson, the County Clerk,

dition to the speakers were First

petitive basis. So if you happen to
get an appointment to a non-com-
petitive job (without competitive
examination) you may find your-
self without any status, if the job
really should have been classified
as competitive (for which com-
petitive examination is needed).

Case of the Special Policeman

An example of what could hap-
m was given by the Supreme
‘ourt in Monroe County recently,
when a former special police offi-
cer in the Town of Gates sought
reinstatement to that job. The job
had been classified in the non-
competitive class, it being osten-
sibly temporary in nature and the
appointment being “at the pleas-
ure of the town board.” The duties
of the job were like those of a
iceman in the City of Roches-
, said the employee involved,
He had been appointed in 1945
without competitive examination.
He was reappointed in 1946 and in
1947, but not in 1948. As an ex-
empt volunteer fireman, he con-
tended that he could not be thus
removed from his job.

What's Special About A Special
Policeman?

The Court reviewed the facts

and came to the following conclu-

sions:
| 1, The employee had never taken
& competitive test.

2. The review of his application,
submitted with his nomination
for the non-competitive job, even
if considered an examination, was
not a competitive examination,

3. There was nothing special in
| the duties of a special Police Ofi-
cer which made it impractiable to
test for it on a competitive basis,

cable to test for policemen in oth-
| er towns in Monroe County, it was
practicable to test for special Po-
lice Officer in the Town of Gates.

| 4. Inasmuch as it was practi-|

5. It has been, found practicable
to test for police officer jobs in
other civil divisions of the State
on a competitive basis,

6. The pefitioner’s original ap-
pointment without competitive ex-
amination was improper, because
the State Constitution requires
competitive examination wherever
practicable,

1. The fact that petitioner was
twice re-appointed to the “non-
competitive” position without ex-
amination does not give him any
greater rights to the job.

Vamp Status No Aid

8. Petitioner's status as an ex-
empt volunteer fireman does not
give him any sj al protection,
inasmuch as he held the position
in violation of the State Constitu-
tion.

In view of these findings, the
Court denied reinstatement to the
former special police officer. (Ver

500 Ex-U. S. Workers
Get State Rent Jobs

Only 500 of the more than 800
persons who worked for the Fed-
eral rent control offices through-
out New York State were rehired
by the new State Rent Adminis-
tration, NYC formerly had 153 em-
ployees in its rent control office.
Only three of these were given
jobs in the State system—Beatrice
Schainswit, Tobias Weiss and Jo-
seph Goldberg.

Advanced training of the new
staffs started yesterday.

The ex-Federal workers have
been hired temporarily at the
same salaries and titles which they
had, pending reclassification, Jo-
seph D. McGoldrick, the new Rent
Administrator, announced. The
Classification and Compensation
Board, under the direction of J.
Earl Kelly, and representatives of
the Federal government are work-
ing out a plan to assign State
titles comparable to the Federal
ones.

Needed: A Survey
Of NYC Civil Service

(Continued from Page 1)

of good government operation. There is need for a thorough
Jook-in upon all phases of the City’s civil service and per-
sonnel setup. Sooner or later, the long-delayed career-salary
plan will become reality. But high priority should be given
to a simultaneous study, preferably to be undertaken imme-
diately, covering every other phase of personnel practices,
Such a survey would te particularly appropriate now, with
the State recodifying its civil service law. NYC
stake in that law, and its voice should be heard.

In nearly every area Involving personnel, the City is
weak. Let us look at some of these areas:

has a deep

RECRUITING: The basis of a good civil service is re-
eruiting. If you don’t get the proper people to take your
civil service examinations, that original weakness will show
itself clearly in the quality of municipal work performed.
The Municipal Civil Service Commission just doesn't know
how to recruit people. It demonstrates little ingenuity, be-
yond sending out routine application notices. This newspaper
has once before shown some of the many avenues available
for an enterprising agency to recruit the people needed.
Essentially, in good recruiting, you go after the man you
want; you don’t wait in the hope that he may come to you.
The lack of qualified candidates in some City tests is notori-
ous. If an additional appropriation is needed for this pur-
pose, it should be provided. But imagination is the primary
need

EXAMINATIONS: Incredible as it seems, the City per-
forms practically no research to find the best testing meth-
ods. The civil service examiners are harried, hurried, over-
worked, and underpaid. There are fewer examiners in the
Municipal Commission than in the State Civil Service Com-
mission, and the City men have more than twice the load to
earry. Some of the best examiners have left for other jobs,
and it may be taken for granted that the superior remaining
ones will leave as opportunity arises. In general (with cer-
tain fine exceptions), NYC tests are mediocre. Yet the whole
civil service system can fall down if the examinations aren't
designed to locate the most capable people. Advance plan-
ning, research, testing of tests, use of newer testing tech-
niques, learning from other jurisdictions—in all of these the
Municipal Civil Service Commission is remiss.

IN-SERVICE TRAINING; An enterprising Civil Serv-
ice Commission ought to be spearheading a campaign for
comprehensive in-service training. Both in private industry
and in governmental entities, such training of employees
“pays off” in better service and in higher morale, The City
once tried a primitive program, but let it wither away and
die. There are some departmental training programs, but
on a haphazard basis, New York State’s recently-introduced
training program is producing excellent results. An appro-
priation for this purpose, with a competent man to head
a training program, is an obvious need.

PROMOTIONS: There are too many dead-end jobs in
the City, too many cases of promotions based not on ability
but on how little the City has to pay to promote a man,
too much out-of-title work. A career plan would have as
one of its basic features the establishment of proper promo-
tion lines.

UNIFORMITY OF RULE

2 Working conditions, leave,
vacation time, absence arrangements, jateness practices,
vary from agency to agency. A uniform personnel policy,
to be administered by a personnel division within the Civil
Service Commission, is necessary to end the present confu-
sion. There should be closer liaison between Civil Service
Commission and personnel heads in departments. And per-
sonnel chiefs should know personnel, No established per-
sonnel officer titles exist in the City service, In some agen-
cies the work is performed by clerks.

LABOR RELATIONS: With a work-force greater than
that of any government entity except that of the Federal
government, the City has no labor ‘relations program. Too
much depends on whim, on personal contact, on pressure,
on political touch-and-go, A modern labor relation policy
is a vital requirement, with the fullest rights and protec-
tions accorded municipal employees, so that they can deal
with the employer on a basis of dignity and equality. Where
such a relationship exists, whether in government or private

Reform Assn."
Defends Its Stand

Editor, The LEADER:

On the theory that a slam is
better than no notice at all, thanks
for your editorial in this week's
LBADER!

Of course you know why, when
Governor asked our views on
the Foy removal bill, we asked him
to veto it—-not because it would
have granted a igi before a
removal could be made, but be-
cause it would have given the
right to a court trial on both the
law and the facts under what used
to be called a “writ of certiorari.”
The protection which such a
right gives the employee is illusory
on two counts: t, because in
the majority of cases brought by
employees who already have this
right, the courts have sided with
the department and against the
employee; and second, because few
employees can afford to fight a
removal case through the courts.
The great advantage to an em-
ployee in such a law Is its nuis-
ance value; the fact that a de-
partment head will think three
times (instead of only once or
twice, as now) before he files re-
moval charges against an em-
ployee, if he knows he has to jus-
tify his action before a court.
Since he doesn’t have to pay the
employee out of his own pocket,
he will usually put up with him
rather than go through all the red
tape and publicity. (But of course
you know all this already—and so
do the civil service lawyers.)
And of course we all know, too,
that nothing has contributed more
to the negative attitude which
many ordinary citizens and many
legislators have regarding civil
service laws than the real or fan-
cled difficulty there is in getting
rid of unsatisfactory employees
who have committed no major
crime. I really feel that from the
long-term point of view, one is do-
ing a disservice to the merit 5:

erally in encouraging their _will-

to get rid of the inefficient and
unneeded, The NFFE_ (National
Federation of Federal Employees)
knows this and has acted on this
knowledge in refusing to encour-

Bear Mountai

By NAOMI SCOTT

“The average State employee
doesn’t yet realize all the benefits
which are his under the new Re-
tirement System," Deputy Comp-
troller H. Eliot Kaplan told an
audience of more than 150 at the
Palisades Interstate Park Commis-
sion chapter's annual banquet at
Bear Mountain Inn.

Mr. Kaplan, whom Governor
Thomas E, Dewey appointed to ad-
minister the New York State Re-
tirement System, outlined the new
age-55 plan, emphasizing the high
Fates of accident insurance and
death benefits which are paid to
members and beneficiaries, He also
described the loan provisions
which allow a member to borrow
as much as 50 per cent of the
money he has put into the system.

Retiring Members Honored

“Your retirement system is more
economical than .any insurance
company in the world,” added Mr.
Kaplan. “Although it will cost the
State $63,000,000 annually, each
taxpayer will pay less than one per
cent of his total tax.”

Three retiring members of the
Park Commission were honored at
the banquet — Lieut. John Drew,
Lieut, Harry Denham and Samuel
Bailey. They received tributes of
praise and gifts from their fellow-
workers. A surprise gift was also
presented to Mr. and Mrs, Angelo

An Opposite —
Point of View

Editor, The LEADER:

Assembly Int. 1687 was drafted
by The Civil Service Employees
Association and Introduced at its
request.

Surprisingly few people interest-
ed in State government, including
the competitive class employees
themselves, realize that only vet-
erans and exempt volunteer fire-
men are now entitled to a hearing
in removal proceedings. The com-
petitive class employee who does
not have the status of veteran or
volunteer fireman has only the
right to written charges and the
right to make a written answer
within a reasonable time. As a
practical matter, the Civil Service
Commission often grants a hear-
ing at the request of the employee
involved, even though he has no
legal right to such hearing. Unfor-
tunately, there have been cases
where a request for a hearing has
been denied and some of those
cases were those where, in our
opinion, a sharp question of fact
existed.

In any matter as serious as a
charge which could result in re-
moval from the State service, it
appears to us that common justice
requires that a hearing be held at
which a full record can be made
and necessary testimony taken.

In the same vein, the employee
at such hearing should have right
to counsel and the right to pro-
duce witnesses to testify in his be-
half. It seems to us that only
through the medium of a hearing
ean a satisfactory record be made
and a decent decision, based on
all the facts, reached.

It may be argued that to extend
such rights would result in an in-
creased, administrative burden on
the various Civil Service commis-
sions. In view of the fact that
many hearings are now held on
a discretionary basis, and when
the issues involved and the con-
sequences of the determination are

carefully weighed, ¥ we can find no

Hears Talk by Kaplan

| J. Donato, in honor of their recent
marriage, Mr. Donato is president
of the Interstate Park Commission
chapter of The Civil Service Em-
ployees Association and was toast-
master,

Kenneth A. Morgan, general
manager of the Palisades Inter-

ident of the chapter, were among
the speakers.

Pressman Sets Record
As Bank Depositor

Believed to be the holder of one
of the oldest continuously active
accounts in any savings bank in
the New York area, Thomas 8S.
Rowlett, 83, of Manhasset, caused
history to repeat itself recently.

In 1887, he deposited $75 in The
Dime Savings Bank of Brooklyn.
Exactly 63 years later to the day,
he deposited another $75.

In the intervening 63 years he
made periodic deposits in his sav-
ings account by mail from various
sections of the United States
where he was employed as a news~-
paper pressman, During the 63
years he had never withdrawn
SavEne from his account in The

industry, work performance always gains through stabilized
conditions and heightened security-feelings in the employees.

Wage structure, hours of work, overtime, increments,
service ratings, appeal procedures, civil service public rela-
tions, employee incentives, the element of the Budget Direc-
tor’s responsibility for personnel actions, the proper place
of supervisory functions, the use and misuse of merit system
fundamentals—all these aspects of the personnel picture
need study and the City’s approach to them needs reorienta-
tion, On few of these matters has there been any evidence
of an approach that could be characterized as imagination.

There will be more comment in future issues,

Or Wrong in Seeking Veto of Removal Bill?

merit in a denial of these rights
based on the reasoning that more
work would result.

The antwahea dies inhibition against

dismissals now in the
lee arises from the fact that the
appointing officer must reduce his
charges to writing.

‘We feel that, if the additional
requirement for a hearing be al~
lowed, the number of unfounded
and biased charges would be held
to an absolute minimum.

JOHN E. HOLT-HARRIS JR.,
Associate Counsel,  .

The Civil Service Employees
Association

Editor, The LEADER:

Even though Assemblyman Ed-
ward T. Galloway and I have each
‘ear for the past several years in=
luced measures seeking a prop-
er hearing for public employees
facing dismissal, and even though
these bills met with no succe:
we were delighted during the 1!
legislative session to lend support
to Assemblyman Poy’'s bill and te
assist in sending it to the Gover-
nor.

While we were acquainted with
the objections stated in the memo
of the Civil Service Reform Asso-
clation upon which the Governor
based his veto message of April
10, 1950, and attempted to meet
it by limiting a full statutory hear-
ing to non-veteran employees with
10 years of'satisfactory service in
the competitive class, we agreed
with Assemblyman Foy that all
employees tegardless of service
should be given a statutory hear-
ing. It is needless for me to add
that we disagree in all respects
with the Reform Association

en years of satisfactory
was suggested to overcome
the Civil Service Reform Associa-
tion's objection that it would be
“so difficult for a department head
to remove employees who are ine
competent or delinquent as to de-
ter him from making any remov-
als at all." the theory being that
&@ man with at least ten years of
satisfactory service would have by
that time proven that he was nei-
ther incompetent nor delinquent,

To Be Held in
Trump Project

The first kindergarten and lower
grade classes ever conducted by
the Board of Education in pri-
vately-owned housing develop.
ments are to be installed soon by
Pred C. Trump, Brooklyn builder,

150 pupils will be accomodated
at Shore Haven, 2lst Avenue and
2ist Drive, beginning in Septem-
ber, Beach Haven at Brighton, at
Ocean Parkway and Belt Parkway,
will service 200 pupils beginning
next February.

Maximilian Moss, president of
the Board of Education, compli-
mented Mr.“Trump for his “vision
and understanding” in providing
space in his two developments for
younger pupils who otherwise
would be obliged to travel long
distances to reach the nearest
regular schools,

Other features of Beach Haven,
a development for 1,860 families
that is now renting, are a court-
esy car to the beach for those who
would rather ride than walk the
short distance; ocean bathing and
ocean breezes at moderate-priced
rentals; building on only 20 per
cent of the area while the rest is
given over to parks, a shopping
center, nearby schools and places
of worship, eto,

Beach Haven at Brighton, which
has efficiency apartments, 344-
room apartments and 4‘2-room
apartments from $70, is 37 min-
utes from Manhattan, Four beau-
Ufully furnished model apart-
ments are open daily from 9 a.m,
to 9 pm. The development is
reached by the BMT Brighton line
from Ocean Parkway Station, and

on the BMT Culver line from Van.

Millions of Catholics the world
over will make a pilgrimage to
Rome this year to celebrate Holy
Year, It is estimated that more
than 50,000 from the United States
will visit the Tombs of the Apos-
tles and the See of St. Peter.

For more than six centuries,
faithful Catholics have responded
to the call of the Popes to Rome in
the Holy Years which the Pontiffs
have designated. By visiting the
four Patriarchal Churches of St.
Peter, St. Paul, St. John and St.
Maria Maggiore, and performing

by the Popes, the pilgrims receive
indulgence for their sins and the

cancellation of spiritual debts.
At first, Holy Year was cele:
brated only at the beginning of
each new century. Then it was
observed every fifty years, and
finally, beginning with Pope Paul
TZ in 1475, every twenty-five years.
‘This , Vatican authorities
lan the most glorious of all Holy
‘ear Jubilees. The four principal
intentions chosen by Pope Pius

are:
Sanctification
through prayer and penance, and
unshakable fidelity to Christ and
Chureh.

O'Brien Will Step Up
Patrolman Appointments

Pointment plans upward: on re-
ceiving Board of Estimate ap-
Proval of 1,100 additional Patrol-
man jobs in the 1950-51 budget.

Origimally he had set up a
schedule of appointments, to start
September 1, at 450 each three
months, Now the plan is to in-
crease the appointment quotas to
a little more than 700 and to
start making the appointments
earlier. The new budget goes into
effect on July 1. No appointments
would be made until then, as there
is no appropriation.

New List After Jan 1

An exam for filling Patrolman
Jobs is now under way. The medi-
cals will begin on Monday, May
22 at Van Cortlandt Park. The
papers in the written test are be-
‘ing rated, school by school. When
one school is completed, those

who took the test in that school
and passed will be called to the
medicals. It makes no difference
in what order eligibles are called
to the medicals, which are quali~

Regan Asks Increment

Lieutenant Joseph J. Regan Jr.,
president of the Lieutenants’ Be-

Board of Estimate to restore rec-
ommendations made by Police
Commissioner William O'Brien in
his departmental estimate for the
fiscal year 1950-1951.

Lieutenant Regan stressed the
need for 1,122 additional patrol-
men for which the City would
haveto appropriate $1,593,000.
Lieutenant Regan also asked a
$100 increment for lieutenants in
the rank a year.

McNamara Testifies

All the papers in the 200 cases
have been sent by the Commis-
sion to the Department of In-
vestigation. Also, President Jos-
eph A. McNamara has spent sev-
eral days testifying before, at the
Department of Investigation. Some
» otk his aides have been examined

One of the questions that arises
in the connection with disposition
of disqualification cases concerns
unsatisfactory work record of
provisionals who, if they become
eligibles, would be entitled to pro-
bationary appointment to perman-
ent jobs, unless disqualified. Some
of these provisionals were dropped
by the departments, but the Com-
mission majority held that they
were entitled to appointment as
eligibles, and another opportunity
during a probationary period. The
Commission majority stand was

Clash at Meeting

A sharp exchange took place
recently between President Mc-
Namara and Commissioner Brom-
ley at a Commission meeting.
Mrs, Bromley insisted in one
character case then being decided,
that the candidate should be dis-
qualified. President McNamara/
found that the score against the
candidate didn’t involve charac-
ter, therefore concluded that the
Commission was without legal
power to bar the aspirant for a|
City job.

“The Commissioner doesn't
know the law,” charged President
McNamara, looking squarely at
Mrs Bromley.

“Maybe I don't know the law,”
she replied, “but I still dissent.”
President McNamara has never
been a dissenter in a character
case. Where there has been a split
decision, either Commissioner
Darwin W. Telesford or Mrs.
