Council 82’s Grand Standin
Attacked By Wenz!; ‘Pledges
In Past Years Not Fulfilled’

ALBANY—Theodore C. Wenzl, president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., said
last week that the main Issue in the Security Unit election ts “neglect or service,”

Wenzl, speaking at as

pecial meeting of CSEA’s ad hoc Security Unit meeting

Thursday, said the Attica uprising and Council 82, AFSCME’s subsequent grandstand play

calling for a prisoner lock-in
had obscured the issues in the
campaign.

“Although Councfl 82 made Its
dramatic announcement over the
Attica crisis,” he said, his was
the first time that Council 82
ever spoke out publicly or pri-
vately for the welfare of either
correction officers or the 3,000
other employees, who comprise
the Security Unit.

“The plain fact is that Coun-
ef] 82, forced to act because of
Attica and all other State pri-
sons being thrown into the Iime-
light, did absolutely nothing for
anybody in that unit, which it
was supposed to be representing.
Meanwhile, CSEA has been
fighting for the rights of the
entire 7,000 people in this unit
right along.”

Ignores Others
Wenzl said that most of
other titles in the unit

have

been “completely ignored. There
are hundreds of narcoiles em-
ployees in our narcotics tnstitu-
tions who have been swept un~

ees have been ignored by Cou

has gone to bat for the narco-
ties employees.

“On another front, what about
the safety and security officers

tals and other State tnstitu-
tions? These people have been
completely ignored by Council
82 for the two years Councll 62

‘Set Evacuation Procedures
For Bomb Threats Now’
CSEA Tells State Officials

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. is awalting
word from State officials on a CSEA proposal to establish
emergency evacuation procedures and Increase security in
buildings occupied by State employees

CSEA officials, headed by pres-
ident Theodore C. Wenzl, met
recently with representatives of
the State Office of Employee Re-
lations and Office of Gene:
Services to discuss what 5
tlons the State plans or has
taken with regard to emergency
evacuation procedures to be used
by State employees in the
of a dire or bomb scare.

“The State Administration, by
falling to respond to us Imme-
diately, doesn’t appear to be con-
cerned with the safety and well-
being of its employees,” Wenzl
said. “The State's failure tq pro-

More Federal Aid

‘The $2.5 billion mass transit
and highway construction pro-
gram will provide not only direct
construction jobs but open up
employment opportunities In the
production and distribution of
materials needed for construc-
tion. The bond money will also
assure that New York gets its
share of Federal aid—more than
$1.6 billion for highways alone,
in addition to Federal mass
transit aids.

On the other hand, failure
to approve the Proposition will
deal a staggering blow to the
economy. Some projects started
in the past few years will have
to be suspended.

In view of the importance of
the transportation bond issue to
the State's economy, the proposal
has received widespread public
support. For example, Ralph G.
Caso, the Nassau County Execu-
tive, a Republican, and Lee H.
Dennison, Suffolk County Ex-
ecutive, a Democrat, agree that
every Long Island resident who
drives a car, rides @ train, or
takes & bus will benefit from the
improved transportation services
that are contingent upon ap-
proval of the bond proposal.

Vital To Economy

In Erie County, Edward V.
Regan, a Republican, and Buf-
falo Mayor Frank Sedita, a Dem-
ocrat, aré opposing candidates
for Erie County Executive.
Whatever their partisan differ-
ences may be, both are agreed
that approval of the transporta-
tion bond proposal ts vital to the
economy of that County.

Both Mayor John V. Lindsay
and City Comptroller Abraham
D, Beame, who frequently dis-
agree on many issues, are firmly
united in their support for the
bond program. Similarly, State
Legislators, whether Republican
or Democrat, whether from ur-
ban, suburban or rural areas,
are united in the drive for voter
approval of the bond issue.

New jobs created as a result of
these public improvements will
reduce welfare and unemploy-
ment rolls. It will contribute to
the economy of each community
by stimulating increased sales
of goods and services, In addi-
ton, it should generate new
revenues for State and local
governments.

Above all, the transportation
bond proposa! will be decided in
the secrecy of the polling booths
by the voters of the State. On
Tuesday, the voters will give
thelr answer.

Tribute To Ben Messina

WHEN HISTORIANS record—and then rewrite as thi
years come and go—the deeds of labor leaders, they go into
great detall and explanations. I am talking of the giants
of the labor movement, the Samuel Gompers, the John L,
Lewises, the Philip Murrays.

AT THE HEART of these historical dissertations
explanations of ambitions and goals—and it always co
up as a fight for the underdog, the working man,
times, you almost get the impression that they do it
—and to a great extent, it may be true because they
men of fierce dedication, vision, determination and p1

IN TRUTH, their goals were simple . .. so simple
they still exist as the goals of labor leaders who have co}
along to take their places in the never-ending battle
the workingman.

BEYOND THAT, however, it is clear that they
certainly could not have done it alone .. . just as no };
leader today could ever dream of doing it alone.

IN THE LABOR movement of this country, however, the,
first wave, the vanguard, were those men who ied the
and withstood the first reactions and assaults. The mi
this group were called by many names—the Committee,
Executive Board, the Friend or Advisers—whatever the!
name, they were dedicated to the same fight, the same goal.:
In this sense, the house of Labor learned a long time a)
that like any other family, it could not be divided and still’
fight the good fight and win,

EVERY ONCE in a while in every labor organization:
there emerges one man who seeks nothing for himself and!
who wears himself out keeping the family house In order,
giving of himself to protect the common goal and the ce
mon cause, I won't mention many of this unique bre
other labor organizations but I do wish to focus on ours:
the firefighter’s champion for 35 years, Ben Messina,

BEN MESSINA will be retiring from the job next ye:
after 35 years of dedicated public service and unswerving di
votion to the UFA and the firefighters it serves, Ben's was thi
level head that prevailed on many executive committees al
the same time that he was the probing, prodding thorn
the side, the constant conscience, the outspokenly imagina-
tive leader who intuitively knew what was right for “The
Job," and who forged ahead fearlessly and tirelessly t
achieve that goal.

THE UFA PROVIDES no pensions, no monuments.

THE “JOB” WILL have a testimonial for Ben Messin!
next Thursday. The turnout promises to be overflowing:
for that is how the job feels about Ben.

MORE ELOQUENT tributes will be paid to Ben nex
Thursday than are possible here. Because of the way
feel, however, I wanted to let government officials, poll
clans and others concerned with the welfare and life of
this City know m a public way of our esteem and affection
for Ben Messina.

BEN, ABOUT the only thing I can say, for myself
the other members of the Board, ls that you leave the
with our heartfelt thanks and good wishes a Tip o’
Helmet from those on the job and those who are to
our place ... for the good you have done for all of us for.
so many years—the good which we know will continue
benefit the ranks still to come. We'll tell them about Br
Messina.

Local G'vt

Chapters Negotiate For
Management Status

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. is urging
fts local government chapters and units to negotiate with
their employers the question of which employees will be
classified as management and confidential and thereby ex-

cluded from bargaining units in-
stead of leaving it up to local
or State Public Employment Re-
lations Boards.

“Through negotiations at the
local level, those employees ex-
cluded from the bargaining unit
because of thelr management or
confidential status are allowed
to remain as members of and
participate in the .activities of
CSEA,” according to Joseph J.
Dolan, Jr,, director of local gov-
ernment affairs for CSEA. “If
PERB is asked to make the de-
termintaion, then the affected
employees cannot belong to or
participate in the activities of
any employment organization as
a result of a recent amendment
to the State's Taylor Law," he
sald.

“This restrictive and grossly
unfair amendment {ts currently
being challenged in the courts by
CSEA,” Dolan said, “while the
practice of jointly agreeing to
exclusions through negotlations
in local government ts an es-
tablished practice which can con-
tinue free of any court restric-
tons.

“It is certainly much better
to allow management and confl-

results or improvements when
correction officers were sudden-
ly put in the spotlight. In fact,
the so-called settlement they
got from the Correction Depart-
ment was no settlement or im-
provement at all. Practically
every one of the Council 82 de-
mands had already been on the
drawing board and in the works
before Council 82 asked for them.
As for the rest, such as rehir-
ing the narcotics employees who
were first last Spring, Council
82 dropped those demands and
never sald another word about
them. (See Pages 8, 9 and 16.)

“When you put it all togeth-
er," Wenzl continued, “the rec-
ord of CSEA for the units it
has represented and for the help

ft has given at every opportu-
nity to members of the Secur-
ity Unit, and the no show record
of Council 82 in trying to rep-
resent the people it has, there
is no comparison,

“We hope that Security Unit
members will see it like it really
is—if they Want good service, if
they want real representation,
grievance-solving, better work-
ing conditions, and the union
that cares about them as in-
dividuals, they will vote for
CSEA.”

Ballots for the election will be
mailed out from Albany by the
Public Employment Relations
Board on Oct, 28 and will be
counted Nov. 16.

avoiding lengthy and formal

Security Unit Vote

ALLOTS to determine the certified bargaining rep- :

resentative in the Security Unit of State service will
into the mail this week. We urge all members of the
Civil Service Employees Assn, to take advantage of their
guaranteed right and vote in this most important election.
A CSEA victory in this election will, mean that all
State employees will be united under one banner, one with
the voice of a quarter of a million voters,

Protect The Innocent

E believe the vast majority of New York City police-

men to be honest. We would believe this even if the
United States Constitution did not guarantee that any man
is considered innocent until proved guilty by a trial by
his peers,

However, many people are greatly disturbed by what
they call Trial by Press in the Knapp Commisgsion’s in-
vestigation into possible corruption among some members
of New York's Finest.

In our opinion, the policemen in this City are known
as New York’s Finest for good reason—one has only to
read the newspapers or listen to the radio or television to
be aware of what supreme sacrifices too many of these
men have made in their efforts to make this City a better
place to live for all people.

For this reason, we think there is an enormous store
ef goodwill that has been earned by the men in blue
through the good work that most of these men—and
women—have performed through the years.

But, taken as a body, they are nonetheless people. And
from any barrel, there may be rotten apples. One rotten
apple may spoil the apples around him, but that does not
mean the whole barrel is bad,

Nevertheless, with our American heritage of “Innocent
until proved guilty,” we hope that the citizenry is sophisti-
eated enough to withhold judgment until all the facts are in.

We must sympathize with the families of the decent
policemen who are forced to bear the suspicious looks of
neighbors whenever they buy something new. These are
the unsophisticated people who take glee when-they “get
something on somebody”—whether real or ynreal,

Unfortunately, the television replays of the testimony
of an admittedly crooked cop—one who has disgraced his
uniform and badge and is now seeking to crawl out of his
problems by making blanket accusations—has helped their
cause.

Perhaps if some of the laws and departmental regu-
lations were made a little more realistic, there would be
Jess nit-picking about law-breaking, Just as the legaliza-
tion of off-track betting has chased the bookmaker from
the streets and has removed a great source of temptation
from in front of the policeman, a revamping of values in
terms of modern-day society would be a major step in the
right direction,

While we do not condone any illegal action, and while
we are not happy about some “guilt by association” allega-
tions being made public by the Knapp Commission, we do
hope that the few guilty traitors are weeded out and that
ome worthwhile changes will come about.

Then the policemen can get back to the business for
which they are trained—protecting the rights of all this
City’s citizens.

Restricting Retirement Benefi&

THE STATE Comptroller has recently jumped the
with regard to restricting retirement benefits of employee:
in the New York State Retirement System or the New York
State Policemen’s and Firemen’s Retirement System. For,
those who thought that the State Comptroller would wait
until April 1, 1972, to crack down under the new law, which
bases retirement pay solely on an employee’s base pay, these
recent developments are startling.

AN EMPLOYEE organization negotiated a labor ag |
ment which provided for termination pay, including =
unused vacation time, (2) a 50 percent payment for unused
sick leave, and (3) severance pay at the rate of three days |
for each year of service, Employees retiring pursuant to this);
agreement sought to have their retirement based upon a
three-year final average salary base. The Comptroller stated | |
his opinion as follows: |
|

“Such a final average salary contemplates the use of the mem- ‘
ber’s highest average compensation earned during any three
consecutive years of member service. In arriving at the highest
average annual compensation for three consecutive years,
Retirement System recognizes salaries, wages, maintenance or
any allowance in Meu thereof, plus payments to a member of
the monetary value of (a) accumulated and unused vacation
time that accrued during such three-year period; (b) termina- ,;
tion payments based upon the ratio which the sald three-year
period bears to the total years of service, and (c) time allow- {
ances granted in lieu of overtime compensation otherwise payable
during such three-year period.”

THE COMPTROLLER in no way attempted to prevent
the lump sum payments for termination pay based um |
earnings of such credits for more than the three years’ Rr
either the vacation time or the compensatory time as en

tically provided in the law or for the unused sick leave as

held legal in a recent court decision. The Comptroller adopt- |
ed an accrual method of accounting for determining the va-

cation and compensatory time inclusions into the base salary

for purposes of computing retirement and denied the inclu~)
sion of any unused sick leave payments. This Is in direct
conflict to the statutory language which talks about “earned™\

compensation during these best three consecutive years. The

Court of Appeals has already held that earned refers

cash basis situation and not an accrual accounting p!

ure. In fact, the entire statutory scheme 1s that premiums'|
paid into the retirement system are on an accrual basis, |
considering the anticlpated obligations to be incurred In the, |
future, while the employee receives payments from the re-

retirement system on a cash basis accounting method.

WHAT HAS apparently frightened the Comptroller ts\
that with the advent of the Taylor Law, employees hay:
been able freely and collectively to negotiate improvements’
in the retirement payments beyond the expectations of the
State Comptroller, so that the rate set on the accrual ac
counting method was too low and did not take into Se ce hl
the future obligations so negotiated. The real solution ts hed]
raise premium payments to cover the unexpected benefits)
payable and not to reduce the benefits,

THE COMPTROLLER has recently made an adminis-;
trative decision which enforces this method of accrual ac-
counting upon employees. The employees affected, with the|
help of their employee organizations, are now once again’
going to the courts where they were a few months ago but |
did not press the action at that time for fear that the courte;
would hold the question premature unless the employee
hausted his administrative remedy that the State Comp!
ler provided. Now that the employee has exhausted his ad-
ministrative remedies, this technical avoidance of the basi¢,
question cannot be raised. This ts the first major attack
by an employee organization upon the State Comptroller's
attempt to restrict retirement benefits to public employees.
These benefits were bullt up by public employees who de-
ferred in-the-pocket compensation during good economle
times so that they would be protected if leaner days ap-
proached, It ts hard to understand the rationale of the State
Comptroller who now turns on the employees who dererge
thelr compensation when the leaner days are now here.

THE LEGAL questions involved are quite broad in scope

SOME FACTS ON THE THREATENED ip
“LOCK-IN", AND THE “HISTORIC |
AGREEMENT” BETWEEN COUNCIL 82
& THE STATE DEPARTMENT
OF CORRECTIONAL SERVICES

A" HERE ARE COUNCIL 82'S DEMANDS:

Council-82 demands that within fifteen (15) days:
(1) Families of Correction Officers killed, those that were hostages
a ses injured, be immediately financially and personally reim-
bursed in a plan to be immediately worked out by the State.
(2). All personnel be immediately rehired, Correction Officers on
first basis, the narcotic Correction Officers on a provisional
basis to deal with this crisis.
(3) Narcotic Correction Officers acquire permanent status upon
q:.:alifying as Correction Officers.
(4) Purchase of necessary equipment (including communications
ick to prevent, control and quell any internal disturbance.

(a) Professional training be instituted immediately - The
present academy is inadequate and an untrained Correction
Officer is impotent.

Improve personel needs of inmates immediately (i.e. clothing,

ining, rehabilitation program)

Within 10 days - manpower requirements be defined institutionally

by the Statewide Committee.

QN HERE ARE OSWALD'S RESPONSES:

i) ®Ovald told Council 82 that the union would

have to take this up with Governor Rockefeller,

2) Oswald told Council 82 that the State had already

planned to fill 135 correction officers’ positions, and
turned down the union request to rehire more than
‘©1080 narcotics correction officers laid off last spring.

3) This was agreed to.

SOME
OBSERVATIONS . . .

Did Council 82 ask YOU if you
would support a lock-in of prison-
ers before Jerry Wurf made his
grandstand announcement on tele-
vision, or did it come as a surprise?

Council 82 failed to tell you that
the demands which were supposed-
ly met by Oswald were on the de-
partment’s drawing boards a week
before Council 82 submitted its
list to Oswald.

Did you ever see the letter of agree-
Oswald sent to Ciuros after the so-
called agreement was reached?

Correction officials admitted that
the details of the so-called ‘“‘hist-
oric” agreement with Council 82
were nothing more than what the
department had planned to do in
the first place.

The “historic” agreement was no-

Retiree Finds Satisfaction
In Helping Disadvantaged |

ALBANY — Next to “cabbies,” the volunteer corp of
drivers at the Albany Red Cross motor unit probably drive
as much as anyone in Albany.

Norman H. Bender, retired head clerk for the Depart-

ment of Tax and Finance, is one
of the dedicated drivers.

Norm and a group of fellow
drivers get together at the Red
Cross Bullding before 8:30 a.m.
to begin thelr scheduled driv-
ing missions.

Norm's schedule is prepared by
® volunteer officer of the day
and includes transporting in-
dividuals to the Association for
Retarded Children and young
children to the Northeastern
New York Speech Center, as well
as adults to hospitals for thera-
py treatment.

Norm drives as many as 75
miles before ending his morning
stint. The Albany Area Red Cross
Motor Unit averages about 750
miles a day, performing missions
like Norm's.

One of Norm's passengers.
John W., eagerly walts to be
driven to the Association for Re-
tarded Children, where he works
on projects such as laundry serv-
fees, handicraft bulk mailings
and maintenance. Norm knows
the trip ts well worth his effort,
everytime he sees John's face
beam after receiving a paycheck

Norm says, “helping people
Ike John gives him a genuine
feeling of satisfaction.”

If you are retiring from State
service soon and would like to
spend some time as a volunteer
driver, join Norm at the Red
Cross motor unit in Albany. For
those who don't drive, Red
Cross has other jobs for you.
Interested? Call the chapter at
461-7461 for more information

about daytime and evening yol-
unteer positions, You'll be glad
you called. Norm Bender was.

CSEA Calls For Meeting
With Youth Agency Head
On It’s Institution Probe

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has an-
nounced that as a part of its investigation into conditions
in State institutions, tt has called for a meeting with the
director of the Division for Youth to discuss what CSEA

president Theodore C. Wenzl
called “a very serious deficiency
in staffing, education and pro-
rams” in the institutions op
erated by the Youth Division

“The Attica tragedy has
thrown the spotlight on an area
which has concerned CSEA for
years," Wenzl said, “That is the
Division for Youth, whose instt-
tutions throughout the State are
unfortunately often just the be-
ginning for youths who will go
on in later Ife to serve prison
terms in the State’s prisons,”

“The high ineldence of -
divism is well known,” Wer
continued, “and CSEA thinks
that if something ts done to
improve conditions for both res
dents and employees in the Di-
vision for Youth, now when tt
is needed, tt will save many from
going out in the world only to
return elther to @ youth Instt
tution or, later on, to a

State
prison.

“Tt ts with this in mind that
T have requested a meeting with
Dr. Milton Luger,

the Division for Youth, and with
representatives of CSEA from
the various youth institutions,
in order to discuss proposals
for proper and improved staff-
ing in the youth institutions,
the duties and responsibilities
of institutions, the duties and re-
sponsibilities of institutional
teachers and social workers and
cottage personnel, and educa-
tonal and training programs
for the staff. It is well known
by this time that permanent and
useful rehabilitation ean only
be accomplished by sufficient
manpower with adequate train-
ing and special education in the
warea of rehabilitation and coun-
seling. And it la not necessary
to ‘reiterate the necessity for
having proper programs at the

youth level {n order to prevent
thelr further alienation from so-
clety.”

Nearly 140 non-teaching em-
ployees represented by the Civil
Service Employees Assn., are in-
volved in the strike vote.

Approval of the strike vole
had earlier been given by the
CSEA’s Statewide Board of Di-
rectors.

Edward Morgan, unit prest-
dent, claimed the Board after
two months of bargaining had
only offered a one percent wage
hike,

No mention had been made
by the Board of improved health
insurance, he said,

The unit has a contract with
the Board that calls for reopen-
ing talks on wages and health
insurance

Anether bone of contention
with the school system Involves
12 grievances that the CSEA
charges the Board not only has
not answered, but has not ac-
knowledged.

CBEA filed an unfair labor
practice charge with the Pub-
Ue Employment Relations Board
regarding the grievances, but
dropped the charge when the
Board agreed to answer the
erlevances.

But, said Mrs. Ruth Niscora,
grievance chairman, the tasues
“are at ® complete standstill.”

Robert A. Milling, CSEA field
representative for the unit, blast-
ed the Board of Education for
the holdup in talks.

"I baye never seen a more

blatant disregard for an organ-
iwed union than at this school
system,” he sald.

Strongly supporting Morgan's
Position on the possible job ac-
tion, Milling said the school sys-
tem had “unilaterally altered the
terms of employment and the
work conditions” by neglecting
the grievances and installing
time ‘clocks.

“At this time,” he added “the
unit is in the third mediation
session with no results.”

Dear Mr. Ciuros:

I have been reading Council 82 claims of what they are doing for
Security Unit employees, Now let me tell you what they have not done
for the employees at Binghamton State Hospial.

ig When Council 82 was designated the bargaining agent for us, nearly
all of our 21 members joined up. Actually, all we did by this was to
donate our money, because we were never approached by anyone from
Council 82, to tell us, or show us, how to set up a local, or tell us to what
local we belong. Some members never even received a membership card

from Council 82.

We were informed of our rights through the copies of the contract
we received, but that is all. No one came around to let us in on any of
the procedures for seeing that our contract was fulfilled, or how to
obtain our rights as outlined in said contract, Finally, after reading in
the CSEA Leader that our reallocation appeal had been turned down,
the membership decided they had enough. Approximately 15 men resigned

from the union, Now, this alone should have caused someone to wonder
what was wrong, but again, Council 82 chose to ignore us.

Now, again, you are asking us to swallow your stories and our

pride, and sign up again. In the first place, what are we going.to get?
When CSEA sold us insurance, there was a representative on hand to
show us and explain what we were getting. What is Council 82 doing?
Sending us letters and no representative. You and all the members of
the [Executive Board and the officers should know that no one likes to
be ignored. When you ignored us, you treated us like the unwanted lower
class of Security Officer. We have been downgraded so much that we
should be used to it, but in all human dignity, we cannot tolerate and will
not support indifference.

All we have seen is a lot of talk in your newspaper, but no personal
contact, or tangible evidence, of any benefit from Council 82. We feel as
if we have been sold down the river, and there will have to be more
of a direct action, and personal contact with Council 82, before any of
us will be taken in again,

Carl H. Platner
