City, State & Federal |/zress to reopen filing for that

test in order to attract more po-
tential candidates for both the
TA patrolman and police trainee
titles. The basic difference in
qualifications is one of age.

While the  initially-scheduled
November date was to have en-
compassed a series of five titles
dealing with law enforcement and
rehabilitation, the new test takes
in the transit posts exc'usively.
Those tested for housing police
and correction jobs on the earlier
exam are in no way affected by
these titles, and may file here
also if they are eligible.

Teen-Aged Trainees

Age range for the post of pat-
rolman 1s from 20 to 29, while
trainees may be 16 at examina-
tion time and 17 by appoint-
ment date. A minimal height of
5 ft. 7 has been established, and
educational criteria entail a high
school diploma or equivalency.
U.S. citizenship and a record of
good moral character are also pre-
requisite to appointment,

At present, salary starts at $9,-

A Good State Contract

OR the first time in its nearly 60-year history, the Civil
Service Employees Assn. has negotiated a formal work
contract with the State Administration that will bring hefty
salary boosts and improved fringe benefits to some 133,000

State workers represented by the Employees Association in
bargaining talks concluded last week.

The pact must now be approved by the CSEA member-
ship and the State Legislature.

Contained in the new contract, which covers a two-year
period, are a 14 percent, $1,275 minimum, pay boost; improve-
ments in health insurance plans and retirement, and import-
ant guarantees on organization rights, to touch on only the
highlights of the contract.

Both the Employees Association and the Rockefeller Ad-
ministration are to be commended for putting behind them
the memory of the last two years of bitter strife over employee
representation and going ahead in a positive, good-faith bar-
gaining mood to produce an equitable pact between the State
and its employees. Governor Rockefeller, of course, will back
this contract to the fullest when it is presented to the State
Legislature.

Senate Majority Leader Earl W. Brydges and Assembly
Speaker Perry B. Duryea, Jr., have always been staunch
supporters of worthy CSEA programs and there is every
reason to expect their unstinting support of this historic and
fair labor contract when it reaches their respective Houses.

This contract, like all other agreements before it, is not
the millenium. There are still some sorely-needed improve-
ments to be made in the field of retirement and other bene-
fits, for instance. But on the whole, it is the kind of fair
settlement that should do much to stabilize peace in the
State public employee field over the next two years and to
maintain morale at a level necessary for an efficient civil
service corps.

Our congratulations to all involved.

Questions and Answers,

“When I file for Medicare,
what will I need to prove my age?

‘There are many documents you
may use. The best proof of your
age would be a birth or baptismal
record made soon after your birth.
If neither of them is ayailable,
other proofs would be submitted
which might include a delayed
birth certificate, early school
record, census record or insurance
policy. The people at your Social
Security district office will be
happy to discuss this with you
and assist you if you need help.

My employer wants me to re-
tire at 62 and apply for social
security, How much will my bene-
fits be reduced at 62? May my
wife and fourteen years old child
get benefits? If so, how much will
their benefits be reduced?

Retirement benefits beginning
at 62 are reduced 20 percent, but
aince they start three years earl-
fer the total amount paid over the
years is often more than the
total paid to those who begin
their benefits at 65. Your wife
and child would also receive bene-
fits beginning at the same time
yours start, and their benefits
would not be reduced. You should
discuss this with your social
security office.

eee

Did the Social Security Amend-
ments of 1967 make any changes
in the amount a person can earn
and still get benefits?

Yes. Under the new law, a bene-
ficlary can collect all of the ben-
efits 1f his earnings in 1968 do
not exceed $1680. If he earns over
$1680, it is possible for him to
get at least part of the benefits.
Just how much will be payable to
him depends on the amount of
his total earnings and how much
work he does—and whether he
works in all months of the year,
or just some.

oe

Why is it that a beneficiary
loses benefits if he earns over
$1680 a year?

‘The basic idea in social se-
curity is that benefits are in-
tended to replace lost earnin,
therefore, when a beneficiary's
earnings exceed a certain amount,
his social security benefits are
reduced. The exact amount of re-
duction in benefits depends on
the amount of excess earnings and
also whether there are months
the beneficiary did not earn over
$140 as an employee or render
substantial services as a self-em-
ployed person. The earnings test
applies to all beneficiaries, child
or adult, with the exception of
persons age 72 or over,

eee

“I have several doctor bills and
I wish to file a claim for payment
from Medicare, Could you tell me
briefly how I should file my first
claim?”

Since you have never filed a
claim, your Social Security rep-
resentative would like you to come
in and let him help with the
first one, Be sure to bring all of
your itemized bills and your Med-
feare card. It 1s not necessary for
the bills to be paid before you
file a claim. You should then
be able to file your later claims
with no assistance and with con-

fidence that they are correct,

Judicial Supervision III

IN EARLIER columns I wrote about a probationary
radiologist’s complaints that his discharge was unlawful be-
cause of failure to advise him of the progress of his work
so that he might have a meaningful opportunity to satisfy his
supervisors. His supervisor, the chief of radiology at the
Brooklyn Veterans’ Administration Hospital contended that
there was full compliance with the Veterans’ Administration
regulations. He asserted that seven months after the plain-
tiff’s employment, he had counselled him concerning his de-
ficiencies and advised that he leave radiology to become a
general practitioner. Six months later the chief issued a mem-
orandum to the chief of staff complaining that the plaintiff
failed his Board examinations. The memorandum also assert-
ed that the plaintiff not only was incapable of reading any
X-ray films but “suffers a further handicap of inability to
realize his own limitations.”

IN ANOTHER memorandum to the chief of staff, the
chief of radiology service again set forth in detail the plain-
tiff’s alleged inadequacies as a staff radiologist and recom-
mended his separation from the service for failure to perform
satisfactorily during his probationary period. He annexed to
this memorandum a schedule of specific omissions of abnor-
malities. These included rubber stamping as normal, films
showing obvious pulmonary emphysema, failure to report
tumors, missing lung nodules and reporting as normal a film
showing calculus in the lower right ureter.

ON MAY 26, 1969, the chairman of the Professional
Standards Board wrote a letter to the plaintiff advising him
that the termination of his employment had been recom-
mended. Plaintiff was also told that a hearing of the Board
would be held at which he could appear to present his side of
the case or submit a written statement. He was also informed

that he could have the assistance of the personnel officer in
preparing his case. The letter stated that the Board’s recom-
mendation would be “based solely on a careful review and
analysis of the facts in the case and information furnished
by you and others who may be called.”

THE PLAINTIFF answered the Board in a letter denying
ever having used previous readings of old X-ray films. He
asserted that he had never been given documentation of any
unusual number of errors in his work. He noted that “Boards
are not mandatory for appointment to his position.” He stated
that he had never been shown a proficiency rating during
his two years of employment.

THE PROFESSIONAL Standards Board characterized the
plaintiff's responses to questions as rambling and disorganized
in an attempt to establish that “everyone makes mistakes and
I haven’t made any more than anybody else.”

A FEW DAYS later, the Board issued its report noting that
the plaintiff had an especially low proficiency rating in ex-
amination and diagnosis, that the chief of radiology had
given the opinion that in view of the plaintiff's inadequacies
his retention would be a menace to patients, and that his
opinion was concurred in by two other supervisors. The Board
recommended the plaintiff's immediate separation on the
ground that “to maintain him in the capacity as a radiologist
would inflict a disservice and harm to patients subjected to
his examinations and interpretations.”

ON THE RECORD, Judge Mansfield concluded that there
had been adequate compliance with Veterans’ Administration
regulations, the essential purpose of which was to assure that
the plaintiff would be made aware of his deficiencies and
given an opportunity to improve. In the absence of arbitrary
.and capricious action against the plaintiff or failure to com-
ply with statutory procedures, the Jurist concluded that the @
defendants’ motion for summary judgment dismissing the
complaint must be granted,

PPlenty Of Positions Open
In Computer Field, Says
State Civil Service Dept.

Lots of likely positions may be seeking your skills if you
have to your credit some practical traning or experience in
the computer programming field. So says the State Civil
Service Department in Albany.

@ Initial pay to those hired comes

to $8.044 per annum plus abun-
dant benefits among which are an-
nual leave, sick leave, paid holi-
days and membership in both a
top-rate health insurance and re-
tirement pension plan.

The quest for candidates is con-

tinuous because the urgency of
more personnel in this field is quite
substantial. Tests are scheduled at
frequent intervals to handle the
@emard of positions to be filled.
Future work assignments, once ap-
pointed, may well point to the pre-
paration of detail instruction to
be adopted in the over-all data pro-
cessing operation.

Should you receive appoint-
ment, brace yourself for tasks
like readying input and output
memory layouts as well as block
diagrams. These will illustrate
the sequence of computations ap-

ied to problem-solving by the
computer. You'll utilize program-
ming jargon of course in de-
yeloping machine instructions to
digest the data you feed it.

Logic Test Lurking
The written test, given periodi-

cally, features four principal
areas. These include: computer
arithmetic and logical abilities

in math; programming techniques
and concepts; data processing

equipment; and reasoning log!-
cally with a variety of verbal,
quantitative and symbolic ma-
terial.

When practicable, the written
test will be held at locations con-
venient to the candidates in each
state (New York State residence
isn’t required for these jobs).

A trio of options, declares the
State Department of Civil Service,
can be your key to qualifying.
For instance, one year of com-
puter programming experience
will put your systems on “go”.

Another option asks for an as-
sociate degree in electronic data
processing, adding that if you're
currently enrolled in a program
for such a degree, you shall be
eligible to take the test within
efght months of graduation. The
third alternate states that you
need to have completed in in-
tensive six-month course in com-
puter programming.

Further details are available
via the route of writing the
State Department of Civil Service
in Albany, Buffalo, Syracuse or
New York City. You might also
visit the nearest office of the
State Employment Service to
pick up the bulletin for these
Positions, No. 20-386, which notes
that filing is continuous.

Some Office Openings

Federal Census

Bureau Bracing

For Influx Of Feb. Applicants

Data on the population of the U.S.A., on who’s who and
@uat's what and who has what, is

soon to be collected and

correlated in the once-every-decade annual census, And brac-
ing for the big headcount is the Federal Census Bureau in

Washington, which reveals that
some 17,000 full and part-time per-
sonnel will be needed when filing
gets underway in February.
Current estimates place the
probable personnel roster at 14,000
in the New York metropolitan area
alone, with enumerators or census
takers hired on the basis of gen-
erally one per 1,000 population.
@flice workers will be hired at a
| similar ratio.
| On the matter of salary, full-
timers can anticipate about $2.50
an hour on the average, In all
likelihood, most workweeks will be
slotted at about 30 hours.
Stated requirements are rela-
tively simple to meet: merely be-
ing an American citizen and above
the legal age of 18. Of course,
there is a qualifying exam, but it
designed to pose very little dif-
fieulty for the bulk of applicants.
Simple Test Slated
From this point, all you'll need
to do is pass a relatively simple
test, Its contents will take in
questions on the ability to carry
out instructions and handle ele-
mentary arithmetic, The Census
Bureau sugeested that almost any
high school grad could pass the
@am without much difficulty.
The obs will last from one to
three months, depending on the

aifficulty to gather the needed in-
formation in the particular locale.
Eighteen census district offices
will be opened in the New York
City area around February 1, and
will be hiring personnel along
with the City-wide office,

Most jobs will begin April 1,
but a small proportion are slated
for February,

Two Types of Jobs

There are two classes of posi-
tions —one entailing office and
the other field work. Both are
open to men and women, The
office positions consist of review-
ing questionnaires mailed in and
following up with telephone calls
to persons who have omitted
questions or gave erroneous ans-
wers. The field workers try to lo-
cate people who have failed to re-
turn questionnaires, and gather
the necessary information.

City and States aides may qual-
ify for thes positions, although
Federal civil servants are inelig-
ible.

Levitt Proposes
Group Life Plan
For State Aides

ALBANY—State Comptroller Arthur Levitt announced
last week that he will establish and adminsiter a New York
State Public Employees’ Group Life Insurance Plan for mem-
bers of the State Employees’ Retirement System and the

benefits would qualify for tax-
exemption under Federal law. The
announcement followed many
months of study and conferences
with State and Federal officials.

A key feature of the plan is that
the insurance benefit will replace
the present ordinary death ben-
efit up to the maximum amount
which can be provided without
resulting in an income tax to the
employee. In no case will the in-
surance benefit exceed $50,000. Any
excess of the ordinary death ben-
efit over the maximum amount
would continue to be taxable.

Commenting on the plan, Levitt
said:

“For many years the ordinary
death benefit has been generally
treated by the Internal Revenue
Service as a long-term capital
gain. As a result, a great many
widows and other beneficiaries of
members who die in service have
suffered severe tax burdens. Ap-
proval of the new group insurance
plan ends a thirty-year effort to
achieve equitable treatment of
these death benefits. This is not
only a victory for New York State
but for any public pension system
in the nation which may wish to
adopt a similar plan,

Cost

“Since the cost of the insurance
program will be no more than the
cost of the ordiery death benefit
to the extent that it is replaced,
neither the State nor any munici-
pal participation employer will be
charged any extra amount. In es-
sence, the plan will provide ben-
eficiaries of public employees with
the same type of coverage now of-
fered by employers to more than
six million workers in New York
State. I am most grateful for the
cooperation of State and Federal
agencies in achieving this great
step forward in protecting the de-
pendents of our public employees.”

The ordinary death benefit is an
amount payable to the beneficiary
of a member of the retirement
system who dies in service. The
amount varies, depending upon sal-
ary and length of service, and can
reach a maximum of three years’

| To Wage Anti-Drug Drive |

Aroused by the alarming problem of drug addiction a
abuse by students in City schools, Acting Superintendent
Nathan Brown has proposed to reverse the current situation
by ‘“‘a massive effort from every community resource” to wage

the battle against narcotics.

In analyzing some of the sug-
gested approaches, he asserted:
“It is unrealistic to think that
the school can lick these prob-
Jems unilaterally. What is needed
is the cooperative effort of the

Community College
Offers Job Training
For Bx. Unemployed

Unemployed Bronx res-
idents may start new careers
in regional opportunity cent-
ers administered by Bronx
Community College, a branch of
the City University of New York.

During a recent visit to the two
centers, one on Arthur Ave. and
the other located on Rosedale
Ave., Dr, James A. Colston, presl-
dent of the school, re-enforced
the college's commitment to pro-
vide opportunities to residents of
the borough and noted that “the
program includes financial stip-
ends which insures economic sta-
bility over an extended period of
time.

“Our effort,” he said, “repre-
sents a partnership of the col-
lege, New York City’s Manpower
and Career Development Agency
and the Regional Industrial Train-
ing ~Assn.”"

BCC structures the educational
portion of the program; Man-
power and Career Development
Agency seeks out the students and
provides counseling and job place-
ment. RITA conducts the voca-
tional training offering classes in
air conditioning and heating,
heavy appliances, maintenance
and repair, and basic office prac-
tices,

‘The trainees, all previously un-
employed, include both men and
women,

“The group includes people who
ean barely speak English, others
who are first learning to read,
and others who will be ready to
enter college within a year,” Col-
ston continued,

The City University of New
York has 11 branches of the Re-
gional Opportunity Training Cen-
ters under the educational super-
vision of five of the community
colleges. Bronx Community Col-
lege has the responsibility for the
two largest centers in New York.

Approximately 60 full-time
teachers and administrators pro-
vide instruction in English as a
second language, as well as re-
medial, primary, intermediate and
pre-college educational instruction.

Asked why the College would of-
fer pre-college instruction, Col-
ston responded:

“We are a community college
and two out of three workers in
our community lack a high school
diploma, Our workers have an
unemployment rate double the
national average, Our obligation

paign, making his remarks within
the context of a health educa-
tion bulletin designed for grades
4 through 6. That bulletin con-
tains some observations on the
potental dangers caused by ex-
periments with household chemi-
cals and marijuana, which re-
ported have been on the upsurge
even among significant numbers
of grade schoolers,

A previous bulletin, for grades
7-12, outlines the characterstics
of more dangerous drugs, besides
discussing the moral and social
social effects of drug addiction,
and the dangers to the user's
chances for success and happl-
ness.

In his appeal, Dr. Brown said
that “there has to be a pulling to-
gether of resources, a commonality
and unification of purpose and
effort, a dispelling of mutual re-
crimination,” and that the role of
the school is an “instructional
commitment which permits the
translation of knowledge into
wholesome health practices.”

Toward that goal, he proposed
that each principal name a “co-
ordinator for narcotics education”
to assure round-the-clock efforts
in serving pupils in need of help.

Mayor, Superintendent Speak

Backs Staff Evaluation

Robinson Opposing
Tenure Law Repeal

Stiff opposition to a pro-
posal seeking to repeal the
tenure law affecting teachers
and supervisors was recently-
expressed by the Board of Edu-
cation’s delegate attending the
annual meeting of the New York
State School Board Assn., who
pointedly maintained that to do
so would deny “accountability”
as well as “due process” to in-
dividuals involved.

In voicing his view, board mem-
bey Isaiah E. Robinson, Jr., threw
his weight behind a substitute
resolution which recommended an
evaluation of the group mentioned
above at intervals of five years,
conducted regularly.

The delegate, Member Isaiah E.
Robinson, Jr., supported a sub-
stitute resolution which would
provide for an evaluation of the
pedagogical group every five years.

The substitute resolution was
defeated by a wide margin. The
resolution to repeal the tenure
law was approved, with Robinson
voting ‘‘no.”*

Sees “Irreparable Harm”

As now written, the law virtu-
ally assures tenure after three
years of satisfactory service, with
removal thereafter only by trial
after charges have been filed. Mr.
Robinson said that the repeal re-
solution would do “irreparable
harm” to members of the city
staff who could be dismissed for
“nebulous” reasons unless pro-
tected by a fair evaluation of
their performance.

Robinson and President Joseph
Mpnserrat represented the Board
at the convention which also
voted to seek restoration of 1969
eut-backs in State aid—in the City
the loss was $90,000,000—and in-
clude in its 1970 legislative pro-
gram an increase in state aid
per-pupil allowance from $760 to
$1,050.

Monserrat is exofficio a mem-
ber of the association’s board of
directors and participated in a
series of meetings and conferences
on policy matters,

Two headquarters officials par-
ticipated in convention activities
as voting delegates from other
school districts. Harold Siegel,
Board secretary, ‘represented
Mount Pleasant District No, 3, a
special district consisting of
schools in Hawthorne-Cedar
Knolls and Linden Hills serving
emotionally disturbed pupils. Paul
Fromer of the Office of High
Schools was present on behalf of
Union Free School District No.

Monserrat and Acting Superin-
tendent Nathan Brown spoke at a
session of the Office of Person-
nel's Executive Development Pro-
gram conducted for prineipals |
at the HS of Fashion Industries,
Manhattan, the theme being “The
Role of the Principal in a Chang-
ing School System.”

The president said that school |
heads play a vital role in setting
the tone gf a school. He recalled
particularly the influence on his
own life of Dr. Leonard Covello,
principal of Benjamin Franklin
HS, Manhattan, now retired. Co-
vello, referred to as “Pop,” was
Franklin’s principal when Mon-
serrat was a student there. |
Superintendent Brown said that
principals are aware of their re- |

tion and declared that they are as
anxious as parents to establish
better relationships for the wel-
fare of the City’s school children,
The Executive Development
Program, coordinated by Solomon |
Silver of the OP staff, has two
sections—one for principals in
active service and one for prin-
cipal-interns. Silver said that ad-
ditional sessions are being plan-
ned in order to accommodate all
present and future principals in
the City school system.

Deputy Superintendent Theo-
dore H. Lang, in charge of per-
sonnel, introduced President Mon-
serrat and Superintendent Brown
at the Fashion Industries session.

Student Art Shown
At Display In Garden
Through January 31

Prize-winning artwork, the prod
uct of creative efforts by a cross-
section of New York City public

public viewing at the National
Museum of Sport located
in Madison Square Garden Man-
hattan. The exhibit will continue
through January 31,

What you'll see on display is
a variety of paintings, prints and
sculpture. These resulted from a
competition jointly sponsored by
educators in art and physical edu-
sation teachers. In hosting the
contest, their aim was to pursue

excellence “in two universal lan-
guages: “Art and Sport.”
Twenty-four prizes totalling

$1,400 in United States Savings
|Bonds have been awarded in two
divisions: one for students in the
LaGuardia High School of Music
and The Arts and the other for
art students in the other high
schools of the City. Within each
division, the prizes have been
awarded in four categories: oils,
prints, mixed media and seulp-
ture. Bight winners received $100
bonds as first prizes, eight sec-
ond-prize winners received $50
bonds and eight third-prize win-
ners won $25 bonds.

In addition to the winning
works, the exhibit will include
other pieces which, while not
prize-winners, were deemed worthy
of showing. All artists whose works
are shown will receive a year's
membership in the Art Museum
of Sport.

The competition was sponsored
by the Joint Committee on Sports
Art of the National art Education
Association and the American As-
sociation for Health, Physical
Education and Recreation.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, January 13, 1!

(Continued from Page 1)

Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg
for Governor, led upstate by Erie
County Leader Joseph Crangle
and in the City by State Senator
Seymour R. Thaler, has not set
the prairies on fire, and leading
Democrats are looking elsewhere
for a standard bearer in the com-
ing State elections.
Levitt Getting The Eye

Inevitably top Democratic lead-
ers in the State are looking tn
the direction of Comptroller
Levitt. Few Democrats are as well
known or as widely respected
throughout the State as Levitt.
In his last campaign for Comp-
troller, in 1966, Levitt proved to
be the best vote getter among all
candidates running for State wide
office, winning with a plurality of
well over one and a half million
votes.

A draft movement for Levitt
is being organized under the lead-
ership of Victor S. Bahou, Demo-
cratic chairman of Cortland
County. In a letter addressed to
county chairmen, Bahou said:
“During the past thirty years,
this Party has been able to elect
only one Governor; and then for
only a single term. For this we
cannot blame the Republicans.
We must accept the responsibility,
the blame, and indeed the shame
for this condition.”

The Role Of Unifier

ning candidate for Governor can

the State Senate and Assembly,
Bahou urged that only Levitt can
unify the Party and lead the
Democrats to victory in 1970.

Bahou is not a lone voice in
the wilderness. Dan O'Connell,
the powerful Albany County lead-
er is known to be in Levitt’s cor-
ner and plans to have Levitt's
name submitted for that post
when the State Committee meets
in March to nominate the Party's
ticket. Mayor Erastus Corning, of
Albany, is expected to put the
Comptroller's name as the Party's
candidate for Governor when the
State Committee meets. A resi-
dent of Brooklyn, the Comptrol-
ler needs only to say “Yes” and
he will have the powerful support
of Meade Esposito and the Brook-
lyn organization.

But Is He Interested?

The big question at the moment
is whether Levitt would be inter-
ested in undertaking such a cam-
paign. Based on his track record,
Levitt is assured of re-election to
his present post, and no Demo-
cratic aspires to challenge the
Levitt nomination for re-election
in a Democratic primary. Against
that certain victory, should Levitt
decide to run for Governor he will
certainly be confronted with a
contest in the Democratic primary
together with a grueling cam-
paign against Rockefeller.

The sources of the Levitt
strength are many. Fe is an
acknowledged fiscal expert, and he
would be running in a year when
State financing and taxation loom
as the dominant campaign issue.
In a year end statement, Levitt
criticized the Governor for his
billion dollar South Mall project
in Albany and pointed out that
a high school could have been
built in each of the State’s 62
counties for less money than tis
being spent on the South Mall.

Strong Local Ties

At a time the urban centers
and local governments throughout
the State are confronted with
mounting costs, Levitt has estab-
lished close ties during his long
service as Comptroller with Coun-

ty officials, town supervisors j
city and village mayors.

A former president of the New
York City Board of Education,
Levitt is well known and highly
respected among educators, school
supervisors and teachers.

In order to clear the path for
the Levitt nomination, some party
leaders are exploring the possi-
bility of offering the post of State
Comptroller to Howard Samuels
and nomination for the United
States Senate to Eugene Nicker-
son, Nassau County Executive.

For further unity, particularly
with the reform and youth ele-
menis, either Herman Badillo,
former Bronx Borough President;
tough-minded Kennedy brother-
in-law Stephen Smith; or former
Senatorial candidate Paul O'Dwy-
er are being suggested for Lieu-
tenant Governor.

P.S, The problems: Levitt is really
fond of Rockefeller just as the
Governor is fond of Levitt. And
the Comptroller is older than he
looks or acts — without a fight
against a tremendous campaigner
like Rockefeller, he'd wind up as
the ‘‘greatest comptroller the
State ever had."’ In addition, Mrs.
Levitt is opposed to the difficulty
of a hard campaign against the
Governor and one that could re-
sult in a loss.

P.P.S. And then, there's still Mayor
John V. Lindsay in the picture,
not withstanding what is being
officially stated. But many of his
off-beat and liberal supporters
like writer Jimmy Breslin, for ex
ample, wno was constantly at his
side in the New York City Mayoral-
ty race, would consider it shoddy
and say “finish out your term, You
owe us that.

CSEA Lawyer Wins
Retroactive Pay Boost

For Two Suffolk Aides

(Special to

The Leader)

RIVERHEAD—Two Suffolk County court reporters who

appealed to the Civil Service
they were shortchanged in a

Employees Assn. for help when
job reclassification have won

their case and will be given the extra salary due them as a

result of efforts by a CSEA re-
gional attorney, Lester B, Lipkind.

Lipkind told The Leader last
week that Mildred T. Buttonow
and James Cavallo, both employed
by Suffolk County as court re-
porter I, allocated to County grade
24, were reclassified to court re-
porter II, grade 27, at the recom-
mendation of the Judicial confer-
ence and the order of the Suffolk
County Special Classification Ap-
peals Board. They had been do-
ing the work of the other title.
However, they were not placed at
the salary steps corresponding to

the steps they had reached in
grade 24.
“Although the County Civil

Service Commission Rules clearly
state that “an employee occupy-
ing a position in a class allocated
to a pay grade which is revised
upward, shall be moved from the
step he is occupying at the time of

reallocation to the corresponding
step in the new salary grade .. .”
Lipkind said, “Suffolk County did
not see fit to do this and put both
employees at a lower step than
they had been in grade 24,”

Lipkind took the matter to court
at the expense of CSEA under the
Association's legal assistance pro-
gram for members, and won. Both@®
employees will now be allocated
to the steps corresponding with
the steps they had reached in
grade 24: Mrs. Buttonow will go
to Step 7 of grade 27 and Cavallo
to Step 5 in grade 27.

The CSEA regional attorney
said that the County Deputy Con-
troller, L.G. Bourne, had inter-
preted the reclassification as a
reallocation, creating the problem. *
