Weisz Demands Action On Fire
Hazards In World Trade Center

Special To The Leader)

NEW YORK CITY — Jack
Welsg, president of the Civil
Service Employees Assn.'s
Metropolitan Conference has
called for “strong and definitive
action" on the part of New York
State's Port Authority to cor-
rect unsafe conditions existing in
the new World Trade Center,
which became evident after
recent fire broke out in the bulld-
ing's sub-basement.

are

said, “The conditions
deplorable. The» Authority
has not adequately prepared the
building for occupancy. Our em~
ployees in that building are in
jeopardy unless something is
done to bring the building up
to looal safety code standards,
“On Jan. 12, the employees of
the building were told to evacu-
ate,” said Weisz, “They found

that stairwells were filled with.

smoke and many exits were not

marked, The elevator doors were
not closing properly and the ele-
vators were moving very slowly.”
Forced To Jump

Ed Hoffman, CSEA unit presi-
dent, said that there had been
no preparation for evacuation,
“Fire drills had never been con-

* ducted, consequently several em-

ployees were forced to jump off

first-floor ledges to avoid the

smoke and flames,” Hoffman

Assails Marcy Hospital Director
For ‘Kangaroo Court’ Decision;

CSEA To Defend 2 Employees

MARCY —

“Our two employees were subjected to the best example of a one-map

Kangaroo court I've seen in all of my years as a state employee and CSEA fieldman.”
These were the words of Civil Service Employees Assn. fieldman Roger Kane, after
hearing that Dr. Nelson Sanchez, director of Marcy State Hospital, had completely over-

ruled the decision of an inde-
pendent hearing officer and man-
dated the termination of two
Marcy employees,

The employees, charged with
patient abuse, used the provision
in the CSEA contract providing
for an independent hearing offi-
cer, in disciplinary cases, The
decision of the hearing officer
called for a 50-dollar fine in one
case and a reprimand for the
other Marcy employee,

Consider Binding
Kane said that while decisions
rendered by independent hearing
officers are considered binding in

Snyder Installed At

AMENIA—Richard Snyder
‘was re-installed last month
as president of the Wassaic
State School chapter of the
Civil Service Employees Assn. in
ceremonies at the Brookside Res-
taurant here.

Snyder, who {s also fourth
vice-president of the Southern
Conference, was joined in the
swearing-in by other chapter of

ficers: Donald Scott, yice-presi-
dent; Beulah Nicholson, secre-
tary; Florean Snyder, treasurer,

and Elsie Bush, delegate,
The installation was conduct+

E

ed by CSEA field representative
John Deyo, who was principal
speaker for the occasion.

Deyo congratulated Wassaic
State School members for: the
strong support they gave CSEA
in the representation election in
December, when the Employees
Association was challenged for
bargaining rights in the Institu-
tional Services Unit by an out~
side union.

‘He also emphasized that each
member pay his dues and keep
his membership and insurance
in good standing. He noted that
Institutional employees were be-

such disciplinary cases, Dr, Nel-
son chose to terminate one em-
ployee outright and suspend the
other for 30 days.

“The contract requires that the
decision of the hearing officer
shall be served upon the employ-
ee and the appointing authority,
and shall be binding as to the
question of guilt or innocence,"
Kane continued. “The appoint-
ing authority then issues a de-
termination in accordance with
such, decision, In any case, the

ing “punished” for standin; up
for their rights last April during
the alleged “strike.” Only the in-

state during the next 10 months
for Institutional employees, and
CSEA ‘will bill members direct-
ly for their dues every three
months during the penalty per-
jod. Members in the Adminis-
trative, the Operational and the
Professional-Scientific-Technical
Units are being penalized for
three months, because PERB
ruled they had been less in-
volved in the Easter weekend

Demand Fire Hazards Be Corrected At World Center

(Continued from Page 1)
continued, No injuries were re+
ported.

Employees in the building at
the time reported that the fire
flarm system was not in opera-
tion during the blaze, A smoke
Purge system designed to keep
stairways smoke-free during @
fire was not operative. “As people
fled the building’ using the
étalrways," Hoffman reported,
“descent became increasingly
More diMfcult since the smoke
‘was more dense with each floor
We went down.”

Adele West, CSEA field repree
sentative, said that many of the
employees had submitted written
Statements to Ed Hoffman de+
manding that “some solution be
worked out before another fixe
Actually took some lives,"

On each floor of the new build-
Ing there is a “red-phone" emer
gency system. Employees claimi-
ed that this system was not in
condition: during the fire, Bev-
eral employees attempted to use
the phones only to find that they
were dead.

No Assurance

Hoffman said that represen-
tatives from ‘the Port Authority
were in the building the Monday
following the Friday blaze, “They
were putting up additional exit
signs,” said Hoffman, “and did
some work on-the telephone
system.” He got no assurance,
however, that the dangers haye
been corrected,

Fire extinguishers; which are
supposed to be installed in the
stairways at strategic points, were
not found by employees evacte

ating the building. They report-
td that “the public address sys-
tem, which should have been in
operation, and could have been
used to give them some direction
in leaving the building was not
wired for use.”

“Shortly after the fire, the ex-
tinguishers were installed and
the public address system was
wired up,” according to Hoff-
man, “But,” he said, “they still
have work to do as far as cor-
recting the smoke-purge system
and it would seem that nothing
will be accomplished for an-
other ‘nine months.”

Hoffman asked that every CS-
EA member send a letter of
complaint concerning the un-
safe conditions to the director of
the Port Authority, Meanwhile,
CSEA's president Theodore ©,

Wenzl has lodged a formal let-
ter of protest in behalf of the
union.

Wenzl sald, “If action is not
taken by the Port Authority, we'll
go directly to the employees to
determine our next step."

Bendet Appoints Hirsch _

Safety conditions at the World
Trade Center were also discus-
sed in detail at the January
meeting’ of CSEA’s New York
City, chapter, whose president,
Solomon Bendet, has ‘long: been
on record as to the need for
better fire prevention measures
to insure the safety of workers in
the buildings,

Bendet appointed Peter Hirsch,
delegate from the Department of
Labor Relations, to chair a com-
mittee to study all aspects of
“World ‘Trado Center safety,

officer unless the appointing offl-
cer submits a report of justifica-
tion for his actions that becomes
part of the proceedings. Nelson
submitted a three-line justifica-
tion.”

An employee may appeal de-
cisions of this nature in accor-
dance with Civil Service Law
Section 76. CSEA has engaged
an attorney to prepare further
defense for the employees,

Given Outside Jobs

Kane, a former president of
Marcy State chapter, also noted
that many of the psychiatrists
at the institution have a number
of private patients. “There are a
significant number of cases
where private patients are given
employment at the hospital. If
it appears that they are unable
to work with the patient popu-
lation they are given outside
Jobs, such as work as a grounds-
man.”

Kane questioned this practice
and said, It is most unfortunate
when long-time public employees
have difficulty with the popula-
tion, that they, too, cannot be
given advantages offered the pri-
vate paying patients of the psy-
chiatrists.”

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER,

TWU Challenges Law =
Limiting Pension Base

The Transport Workers’
Union, AFL-CIO, and its Lo-
cal 100 are challenging a
state law which limits the
salary base on which em-
Ployee pensions may be
computed.

State Supreme Court Justice
Sidney H. Asch received argu-
ments by attorneys for the TWU
and the Transit Authority, the
defendant, on Feb. 2. The suit
charges that Section 431, subdi-
vision 4 of the state's Retirement
and Socia] Security law is un-

constitutional. The section,
which went into effect on April
1, 1972, limits an employee's
wages for pension computation
Purposes to no more than 20
percent of his previous year's
earnings. Pensions are computed
on the last year's salary before
retirement.

The sult, which was described
by a TWU attorney as a test
case, charges that the Jaw vio-
lates Article 5, Section 7 of the
State Constitution. That provi-
sion specifies that membership
in @ state retirement system is

ractual relationship, the
‘aooter of which shall no& be
diminished or impaired.”

Before the law went into ef-
fect, there were no limitations
on earnings applied to pension
computations.

Plaintiffs in the case are Rob-
ert H. Kleinfeldt, » retired Tran-
sit Authority car maintainer;
Matthew Guinan, TWU presi-
dent, and Daniel Gilmartin,
TWU Local 100 president. Briefs
in support were filed by the Uni-
formed Sanitationmen's Assn.
Briefs in support of the TA were
filed by state Attorney General
Louls Lefkowitz.

‘The parties have until Feb. 15
to submit further legal papers
before Judge Asch considers the
case. The suit was originally
filed in September 1972.

Clichés As Truths

LICHES are often founded in truth, Fortunately for
most of the State's public employees, including those
in local government, the old saw that in unity there is

‘strength ts being put to use to protect the Pension System
of nearly one-half million public employees,

Fourteen city and state unions have banded together to
weld a formidable lobby to fight the proposals of the State's
Permanent Commission on Public Employees Pensions and
Retirement Systems.

The Commission's recommendations would, in, effect,
remove pensions as a legitimate area for negotiation. As we
Said last week:

First, it would place all new employees (Fire and Police
excepted) In State and local government under a single,
new plan that offers lesser benefits than those now enjoyed
by persons presently employed. Within a few months, this
could create an immediate on-the-job crisis by having two

employees doing the same work but receiving different ben-
efits,

Second, its recommendation that pensions be removed
as negotiable items denies public employees a basic right
enjoyed by all employees in the private employment sector,

When the interests of 14 competing unions coincide to
bring about a united front, you know the issue has to be mo-
mentous, The Leader extends its heartiest support to the
coalition and its cause.

sion should be immediately re-
tired and forced to live the re-
mainder of their days on the
average public employee pension.

To recapitulate the Commis-
tion's recommendations, these
fall into two separate items, One
‘would set up a single pension sys-
tem for all public employees en-
tering public service after July 1,
‘The other would remove pension
And reitrement benefits from the
arena of collective bargaining,
As part of the recommendation
to. make pension benefits a non-
négotiable item, the Commission
recommended termination of all
pension benefits based on tem-
porary legislation.

Dual Pension System.

Obviously, the Commission pros
poses a dual pension system with
different benefit structures for
Persons working alongside each
other. Clearly this will produce
& schism between the two classes
of workers and would require CS-
EA to direct its energies in the
future to wiping out this distine-
tion rather than to improving the
benefits for all

A major inequity in the new
proposed pension system is that
it would integrate the social se-
curity benefits with the public
pension plans, When the state
employees voted in 1957 to join
the social security system, there
‘was a public commitment that
those benefits would be supple-
mentary to pension benefits. This
attempt to diminish pensions by
social security benefits is an im-
moral violation of that commit-
ment, Moreover, it would remove
the best protection against ero-
sion of pension benefits by cost=
of-living increases

Beginning Of Assault

‘The effort to remove pensions
from collective bargaining nego-
fiations marks the beginning of a
major assault on the inherent
nature of the collective bargain-
ing process. The Commission has
simply swallowed whole the com-
plaint voiced by the New York
Chamber of Commerce that “the
economic and political power of
municipal unions in New York
City is such as to raise a serious
question whether the economic
health of the city and the effec-
tiveness and efficiency of the ser-
vices it provides can any longer
be determined by the present
collective bargaining process,”

Obviously public employee or-
ganizations will not take these
recommendations lying down.
Fourteen such organizations, in-
cluding CSEA, stand united in a
common effort to prevent the
Legislature from destroying the
pension rights of the public em-
ployees, It is unfortunate that
this issue erupted during sensi-
tive negotiations between CSEA
and the State. On the other hand,
the defeat of these pension pro-
posals deserves the highest priori~
ty of all public employees.

Law & You

Law Committee.

Injured While On Duty

In a lawsuit brought by a city police officer, the plain-
tiff claimed that he was injured while performing his reg-
ular police duties. He made a claim against the city for
‘workmen's compensation benefits, and approximately one
year Jater it was decided by the workmen's compensation
referee that the plaintiff had suffered a, 50 percent disability,
and he was awarded temporary payments. The referee also
directed payments to the plaintiff of temporary reduced
earnings, The case thereafter was adjourned from time to
time so that it could be determined whether or not the
plaintiff suffered any further disability. The last decision
of the referee was made in November 1971, almost two years
after the injury occurred. The last decision of the referee
modified the plaintiff's temporary reduced earnings award,
However, it was continued until May 1972, when the city
stopped all compensation payments; it being self-insured. In
April 1972, the plaintiff served a demand under Section
207-c of the General Municipal Law for payment of the full
amount of his regular salary and other benefits, which he
claimed had accrued to him since his injury in 1970. He also
demanded that his full salary and benefits be continued
‘until his disability ceased. After the city refused to make
the payments, the plaintiff commenced this action for a
declaratory judgment in the Supreme Court of Broome
County, (Rosinsky v. City of Binghamton, et al,, 338 NYS
2rd 683.)

* * *

SECTION 207-c of the General Municipal Law provides
that a police officer who is injured in the performance of his
duties shall be paid by the municipality which employs him
in the full amount of his regular salary or wages until his
disability has ceased, It was argued by the city that the
plaintiff refused to accept light-duty assignments within
his capabilities following his injury and that he was no long>
er disabled. The court held that these issues were all
germane; however, they were within the jurisdiction of the
‘workmen's compensation referee and were, therefore, decided
by the referee..The city, therefore, was stopped from re-
litigating in this action for declaratory judgment any of
ithese issues, at least for the period prior to Nov, 15, 1971,
which was the date of the last workmen’s compensation
hearing.

The only issue which required a hearing according to
the court was the city’s allegation that the plaintiff refused
to accept light-duty assignment after Nov. 15; 1971, and the
allegation that he has fully recovered since then

. . *

‘THE CITY CONTENDED that the plaintiff was entitled
to receive less than the full benefits under Section 207-c
because the referee found his disability to be only 50 per-
cent. The court held that such an interpretation would run
counter to the remedial intent of Section 207-c. The statute
specifically recognizes that a policeman’s total disability is
not a prerequisite to the payment of benefits under Section
207-c, Also the court held it does not necessarily follow
from the fact the plaintiff recelved the workmen's com-
pensation award that he forfeited his rights under Section
207-c, those statutes not being expressly mutually exclusive,

Section 303 of the Workmen's Compensation Law pro-
vides that an employer is to receive credit for any full wages
paid under Municipal Law. This is a recognition under
workmen’s compensation that the payments received under
Section 207-c are taken into account. However, the pro-
priety of the city’s action in unilaterally discontinuing pay-
ment of the workmen's compensation benefits after May 19,
1972, 15 an issue to be pursued by the parties in a work-
mep’s compensation hearing, The court then directed the
Parties to appear for a hearing-on the issues of whether
or not the plaintiff refused ta accept light duty and whey
ther or not he was fully recoveréd so as to allow the city to
discontinue the Section 207-c benefits.

For Vote By
Non-Member |

MINEOLA — A national
Supreme Court justice Friday
rejected a suit brought by »
a non-member of the Civil
Service Employees Assn. claiming
that he shoud be permitted to
vote in a contract-ratification
election.

Justice Bertram Harnett went
so far as to say that the non-
member was enjoying “represen-
tation without taxation" because
he derives the benefits of union
protection without paying dues.
This, Justice Harnett asserted, is
a “curious Inversion of the old
refrain ‘no taxation without rep-
resentation.’ "

‘The case had been brought by
Julius Wald against the Nassau
chapter of the CSEA concerning
a ratification vote scheduled for

Feb, 28.

‘The judge said that there was
ho legal requirement that a con-
tract be submitted to a member-
ship yote at all or that, if a vote
is held, that non-members be per-
mitted to take part

Theodore C, Wenzl, president
of CSEA, in reaction to the bud-
get proposal said, "It ts typical
of the state to inform the em-
ployee representative last, in a
situation like this. Certain news
sources had the story # day be-
fore the Governor made copies
of his budget available."

Wenzl noted that the budget
stated that “every effort will be
made to minimize the impact of
the institution's closing on the
present 181 employees.” He yow-
ed that the union would do every-
thing possible to hold the execu-
tive department to that commit-
ment,

cedure, according to one budget

Further inquiries by CSEA
have proved that bu nerease
in a number of state agencies

for certain programs “make the
hospital an obvious facility for
adaptation.

Several departmental spokes-
men have judged the facility to
be in “fine condition needing

little funding for repair and re-
novation.” It now for

recommendations of the proposed
budget before the departments

said, “we must take every pre-

ndate '73 On Masterplan Insurance]

15% LOWER COSTS FOR COLL

(Special to The Leader)

ALBANY If you are a
member of the Civil Service
Employees Assn., but have
not looked into CSEA's auto-
mobile insurance plan, Master-
plan, now 4s the time to do 90,
according to a spokesman for
CSEA. "The insurance laws may
or may not change in the com~
ing year,” said the spokesman,
“but if you are a member of this
plan, no matter what happens,
you'll save money.”

‘The “best reason” for signing
up with the CSEA Masterplan
now, according to the spokesman,
is, the availability of “even fur-
ther discounts on portions of
your automobile insurance."

Because of new Department of
Transportatis standards effec-
tive this year, all 1973 model
equipped with front
's which will withstand a
impact with
no damage to safety-related
components. “Although the suc-
cess of the standards r
be proved,” the CSEA represen-
tative said, “it 1s generally
agreed that the cost of repairing
collision damage will be lowered.

Consequently, The Travelers has
reduced the cost of that portion
of your auto premium which

pays for collision damage. That
discount ranges from 10 perc

to 15 percent, depending
standards met by the particular
car. The discount will also apply

to subsequent-year models that
meet the same or higher stand-
ards.

Almost nil 1973 cars m
minimum — standards,” the
spokesman continued, “and,
therefore, are eligible for the 10
pereent discount, All Chrysler
Corp, cars meet even higher
standards and, therefore, qualify
for a 15 percent discount. There
are other individual models that
also qualify for the higher dis-
count. There are certain model
vehicles which do not qualify for
any discount, these include the
Chevrolet Blazer, the Ford
Bronco and the Dodge Sports-
man

the

“Along with these discounts,
The Travelers has also made
available additional deductible
options for comprehensive and
collision coverage which will fur-
ther reduce the cost of your
automobile physical damage in-
urance.”"

By choosing a higher deduc-
tible option, your physical dam-
age premium may be signific:

retirement news since

If youre retired - or about to retire-you
already know about the problems involved in living
ona fixed income. We don't have to tell you about
that! But we can tell you about a way out of those
problems. And other problems, too. Like congested
traffic and bad weather and transit strikes-and
polluted air and power failures. The way outisa
Horizon Home. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home shown
in this ad, for instance, sells for under $27,000. And
there are other Horizon Homes ranging from less
than $20,000 to over $50,000, including the lot. But
price is just part of the Horizon story.

Horizon homes are built to your design! You
can choose from over 20 different floor plans with
110 exterior designs. You get your choice of brick,
stucco or block exterior facing - depending on loca-
tion. And you can select the design of your kitchen
cabinets and the color of your wall-to-wall carpeting.
What's more,all Horizon Homes have enclosed
garages (single or double) and central heating and
cooling systems. And Horizon provides every new
home with a full one-year warranty on all appli-
ances, plumbing fixtures, hardware and building
materials. Sound impressive? It is. But there’s
éven more to come.

Horizon Homes are more than homes!
They're a way of life. Because Horizon Homes are
all located in Master-Planned Communities -there
are four of them-near El Paso,'Texas, Albuquerque,

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, February 13, 1973

Housing PBA Blasts

—

Lindsay Budget Allocation

in highly-charged tele-
grams to Mayor Lindsay and
Housing Authority Chair-
man Simeon Golar, HA’s
Patrolmen’s Benevolent As-
sociation president Joseph
Balzano pressed for “more
manpower and equipment to
properly police the 190 pro-
jects which are managed by
‘the Housing Authority.”

Balzano sald the HA police
force required an additional 2,~
500 members because the present
1,500-man force is stretched too
thinly, charging the Mayor with
“deliberately bypassing” the HA
Police force in his proposed
1973-74 capital budget.

‘The proposed budget allocates
$1 million for unspecified “com-
munity-based crime prevention
activities” in housing projects,
with no mention of hiring more

housing patrolmen. “It is our as-
sumption,” an HA spokesman
told The Leader, “that block as-

sociations will be hiring private
guards with these funds.”

“We support the use of part-
time auxiliary forces to assist
full-time, trained professional
Police officers,” Balzano stated,
“but not while a policy of bud-
get-starvation is applied to the
police force which has the pri-
mary job of patrol, crime-pre-
vention and law enforcement in
the projects.

“There seem to be plenty of
city funds and other funds to
build up auxiliary units and pro-
vide them with new communica-
tions equipment,” he continued,
“while our men on patrol right
now haye no walkie-talkies be-
cause there are not enough to
g0 around and no spares.”

As of Jan. 22, 39 newly-ap-
pointed housing patrolmen have
been in training at the Housing
Authority Academy, 684 Water
St. Manhattan, The training
period takes four months.

At present, the total force has
40 fewer members than it did
at this time Inst year, “Hiring,”
said the HA spokesmen, “is pro-
ceeding with an indecent lack of
haste.”

More than 5,600 candidates
took the last housing patrolman
exam Jan. 20, which was the first
exam held in over two years, but
the eligible list will not be es-
tablished for several months.
(Key answers for that exam, no.
2226, appeared in the Feb. 6 is-
sue of The Leader.)

December, 1972, marked the
20th year of the HA police
force’s existence, and retirements
are starting to come in. The
force, therefore, is expected to
decrease considerably before new
patrolmen are appointed and
trained. Starting salary for HA
Patrolman is $11,200.

“No mass selection is expected
when the new list fs finally es-
tablished,’ the spokesman said,
“because we're not getting the

no's telegrams concluded

ying, "We do not bell
the safety of the tenants in
jects should be gambled

have at hand enough mer-

Trouble is, however, that as
I check each story out, a
myriad of details come to

them. However knowing the
calibre of the men who per-
form such acts as a way of
life and a matter of course,
I believe the reports implic-
itly and wonder why the
daily press ignores the ma-
terial so consistently.

Let's start out with Ladder 29
where rescues come sort of like
jee cream at the end of each
meal, The Fire Department
thinks so highly of the men in
Ladder 29, that seeming!:
time anything happens whe
special help is needed, they at
once think of 29 ‘Truek—for in-
nce a pier on fire at Warren
Street and the Hudson River at
the lower tip of Manhattan
a very cold night and the fire
was a 4th alarm. So who do they
special-call to overhaul? Ladder
29! Wasn't that nice? Believe me
gentiemen, I'm only kidding.
Let's say that in spite of that
kind of stuff (I know the whole
Story and TI still think it was a
rotten thing to do) guys keep
giving. unstintingly of themselves
and covering the Department
and themselves with a special
kind of glory.

Engine got a ver-
a few doors down
Fireman Joe Hig-
Truck and Pireman

Joe Scand’ of the Engine
grabbed tools and ran for the
building while the companies

were turning out. They went to
3rd floor where there was
of fire for everybody. Hig-
forced the apartment door
was met by fire. He and
ndu dropped. crawled under
the fire and went three rooms to
the front where found two
young kids lying on the floor
and not breathing. By this time,
the truck was witioned and
Charlie Bohan the side
windows, lifting the pressure and
enabling the two rescuers to re-
trace their path with the path-
etic Little victims. Downstairs the
two went to work for 20 minutes
with mouth and massage and
sure enough, the kids started to
breathe again. Once more, as in
countless instances of late, the
eift of life was restored to a
couple of tragic innocents by a
couple of guys with hearts big-
ger than themselves!

Next day at another job, Pire-
man Joe Higgins with 29 Truck
was above the fire and ripped his
wrist with a glass. (Yes he did
have his gloves on). They took

him, bleeding like a pig, to Lin-
coin Hospital of al) places where
he must have been treated by the
Janitor instead of a “doctor” be-
cause even though this bird was
told that the hand was numb,
he told Higgins that it would be
that way for a couple of days
and dismissed him. Actually he
had severed a tendon and when
he finally ended up in Presby-
terian Medica} Center for sur-
gery, a six Inch plece of nerve
had to be removed which puts
a damned good, on-the-ball
firefighter out of business for
God only knows how many
months!

I Understand that some Bronx
chief officers have reservations
about going out of their districts
to get firefighters to a decent
hospital. May I suggest that a
directive be issued permitting
them to scoot for Presbyterian
in the best interest of the injured
fivefighter rather than expose
him to the incompetence of a
place such as Lincoln Hospital?
It doesn't seem like such a hell
of a big decision to make when
you think about it a little, does
it? T wouldn't hesitate!

Next is the story of Fireman
Gil Murtha of Ladder 108 who
with the company, rolled to 34
Bartlett St. in Brovklyn, It was
& four-story” brownstone. Fire
out the 3rd floor rear cutting
off escape. The hall was charged
because the fire apartment door
was left open. You couldn't live
in the floor above. However, four
people were in tie window on
the side of that floor and it was
Murtha's baby. He and detailed
Ray Sollin of 104 Truck went to
the roof with a rope; Sollin low-
ering Murtha to the 4th floor

window ledge. There were four
adults. First Murtha called for a
sealing Iadder to be let down

from the roof. There wa:
for four trips up and down on
the rope. All of a sudden however
Murtha heard water start on the
floor below and while it drove up
enough heat and smoke to kill an
army, he kept the four in check
while deciding what to do. After
several attempts from below
without success, Lt. Abruzzo and
Fireman Bob Walsh from 108
made it up the stairs, forced
entry to a front apartment and,
with the four firefighters pro-
tecting the four civilians with
their bodies, rushed them through
the heat and smoke to the front
apartment where they had a bet-
ter chance to live.

All in all, a beautiful example
of guts aplenty, plenty of moxie
in the quick thinking depart-
ment, whieh all adds up to nor-
mal for a New York firefighter

wouldn't you say? Congrat-
ulations to everybody. I love this
cheerleader bit, believe me. E:
pecially because you need one
and deserve many!

Early Monday morning at CSEA Headquarters in Albany,
John Trela, CSEA’s mobile office manager, checks some
last-minute statistics concerning voting strength and the
occupational make-up of the 220 non-teaching workers that
are eligible to vote in the election, before leaving Albany for
Kingston

LONG, SLOW EFFORT

Strategy, teamwork, and professional planning are the keys to a successful union
representation election campaign, whether it be on a statewide or local level.

The recent 6-to-1 victory by the Civil Service Employees Assn. in the Kingston Con-
solidated School District for representation of some 200 non-teaching employees is a case
in point, and a typical example of the results of the combined efforts of a team of public
employee representation specialists,

Experienced field representatives, living and working in the area, ‘joined by a
professional staff of specialists at CSEA Headquarters, plus the “on-the-scene" capabili-
ties of a mobile office, all working closely with CSEA members in the employee unit in-
volved, provided the formula that yielded a vote of 105 for CSEA, with only 16 votes go-
ing to the opposition, the Service Employees International Union, AFL-CIO.

If you had been along with the CSEA mobile office crew on Jan. 29 and Jan. 30, the
day of the Kingston School District election, you would have seen some of the las’
minute behind-the-scenes activity by CSEA staff, chapter officers and members that goes
into a union representation election campaign.

. ‘
After two-hour drive down the snow-buffeted New York State Thruway, Trela and other CSEA staff members hold a last-minute planning session
the mobile office arrives at the Kingston Holiday Inn, where out-of-town to discuss what the challenging union might do on election day and to
