Memo to
Bob Wagner

Dear Bob

Politics is seen too frequently
a a display of gall, oompah, vill-
feation, cynicism, high-flown ser
timent
collusion.
tloners po!
@iting game.

It is no great discovery that the
malo. s of politics don’t al-
ways know the people; few of them
' ever develop the closeness
their clientele that enables them
to sense the needs of the people
and to lead their constituencies:
to walk with them and ahead of
them simultaneously. Franklin D.
Roosevelt had this quality; he
could orchestrate themes that in-
@ividuals could feel personally and
@irectly. Your father, too, possessed
f&, and many a plain man reve
enced Robert F, Wagner the elder
because he felt the closeness.

Big Things vs. “Small” Ones

The “big” awesome things in
government aren't always the ones
that bring this closeness between
the governed and the seats of
power. Small details can have
darge significance. The courtesy
with which a telephone operator
says “Thank you!", the swiftness
with which a smal) businessman
gets a license — often count for
more, politically, than major drives
to recodily a set of laws or re-
organize a department. These ob-
servations have validity for you,
Bob, as you maneuver your way

Powers Asks
|‘Stepped-up
Organizing

ALBANY, March 8 — John FP.
Powers, President of the Civil Ser-
| vice mployees Association, has
sued an appeal to all chapters to

step up organizing. Mr. Powers
made these suggestions

“It is vital that:

“(1) You have a Membership

| Committee for your Chapter com-
| posed of one member in each unit
| comprising your Chapter, with no

| and recanvassing more than 36 to
| 50 employees.

| “(2) ‘The Membership Commit-
tee be kept informed thru meet-
ings, workshops or direct contacts
as to the work of the Association
so that they know their ‘product’
and can sell it to non-members,

“(3) A survey of the Member-
ship Committee be made periodi-
eally to replace inactive members
with persons who are interested
and willing to canvass and re-
canvass all non-members and sell
| membership.

“I have requested our field rep-
resentatives to work with our
Chapters to the greatest extent
Possible in assisting Chapters by
Interviewing individual members
of the Membership Committees to
make certain they are active, in-
terested and are aware of the As-
sociation’s work, and thus be in
position to convince non-mem-
bers.”

aders, Including a re
sion of the State's classification,

complicated pay bills ever to be

to a question, how will groups out-

answer was: “They'll be entitled

grades and titles, they would get

State Forest Rangers have re-
ceived reports on a large selection
of subjects. Here is a roundup:

1, Uniform law system: A book
will be issued within a year,

2. Law enforcement: Enforce all
laws on the Conservation Law
Book.

3. Ranger’s badge: Department
is not in favor of badges, but ree-
ommends an identification card.

4. Standard regulation book:
This is covered under the Conser-
vation Manual and Law Books.

5. Clothing issue: It is next to
impossible to obtain overcoats,
Money is set aside each year, how-
ever, for replacements,

6. Salary increase for observers
and year ‘round employment: Jobs
impossible due to locations of work
projects and cut in budget.

1. Increments: Increments will
be obtained if possible.

8. Trucks for each ranger: Not
possible due to shortage of funds,
but will be remedied as soon as
possible,

9. Compensatory time; This time
must be used up within one month
and preferably sooner, and it is
entirely up to the department

Retirement
‘Loophole

ALBANY, March § — A Rules
Committee bill introduced last
week in the Assembly would liber-
alize certain provisions of the
State Retirement System.

The measure has Administra-
tion backing and was drawn up,
The LEADER learns, by the State
Department of Audit and Control.

Tf passed, as expected, the bill
would plug a loophole in the pres-
ent Civil Service Law under which
members of the Retirement Sys-
| tem have died and their retirement
contributions have been lost te
their benefictaries,

At the present time, if a mem-

r of the system dies after the end
of the 30-day waiting period with-
out electing an option for payment
of the pension, his beneficiary re-
celves only his retirement allow-
| ance for the period between the
| effective date of his retirement and
his death.

SERVICE LEADER

Tuesday, March 9, 1954

Looking Inside

By H. J. BERNARD

The LEADER continues this i
sue a resume of civil service legis-
lation introduced in the State Leg-
.| istature at its current session,

IT 18 NOT DIFFICULT to read Governor Thomas E. Dewey's
mind on a point he purposely did not explain or detail in his speech
before the Civil Service Employees Association.

Discussing civil service goals, he stated “the next great objective”

@as the combination of Social Security benefits with those of the
State Employees Retirement System and Jocal systems. He hinted

the State Constitution might have to be amended to accomplish it.
This point he did not develop, but contented himself with a friendly

offer to one and all to come up with some solution, He is anxiously

awaiting one. It would be most welcome.
What Dewey Meant

‘The Governor undoubtedly referred to Article V, Section 7, of
the Constitution, that provides “membership in any pension or
retirement system of the state or a civil division thereof shall be

& contractual relationship, the benefits of which shall not be dimin-

ished or impaired,”

That provision was approved by the people in the 1938 election
and is unlikely to be disapproved by the people in any future election,
and it would be an enormous task to induce the employee organiza-

tions to favor repeal of a provision they hold so dear, if only for
future employees,

What the Governor has in mind ts a more scientifically balanced

relationship of the two types of benefits, for future entrants Into the
State or local systems. At present the combination produces benefits,
though opponents would be the last to admit it and it may sound
like heresy, that may even be excessive.
Plight and Partial Remedy

The Association at its last annual meeting, after a thorough
study, adopted a resolution favoring combining benefits. In the ranks
of that powerful group fears had been expressed by some, when the
study began, over socalled Federal encroachment and possible rise in
minimum retirement ages. When the insurance and survivorship
benefits of Social Security were weighed, and the need of supple-
menting the State system recognized, and nothing seemed to support
the fears, enthusiasm for integration ran high. Employees had found
their fellow-workers’ families left in a financial predicament by death,
with many surviving children affected, employees with short service
records retired at far insufficient allowances, widows left unpro-
tected, Social Security, if authorized, could have provided immediate
ash and monthly allowances to all, at small cost.

Showdown Imminent

Congress no doubt will consider a bill at this session te permit
members of State and local systems
such membership, to be covered by Social Security for their public
Jobs. This is no doubt what the Kaplan committee will recommend,
though knowing well, by this time, the nature and extent of opposi-
tion it will meet. Some of the opposition is an inherited stand to
which groups will adhere for strange consistency,

Entitlement to full added benefits, under such a bill would come

fast. Social Securtiy is rapid on that score, compared to actuarial
systems, for the concept of Social Security is social.

A Point Often Overlooked

‘Thousands of present State and local government employees have
Social Security membership now, because of work in outside covered

administration wants to extend its sphere

of influence, it has many places to go and lots of distance to go.
Speaking st the annual dinner of the Civil Service Employees
Association, Oscar M. Taylor, Chairman of the State Civil Service
Commission, said one of the aims of civil service is to afford the tax-
Payer a feeling of satisfaction in the service and courtesy received.

He was possibly referring to large-scale
employee with the public, but if not, so much the better,

dered by government in hundreds of different ways.

Since then government has gone into far more extensive and

important to the taxpayer, and many of possibly extreme value to him

the Assembly Civil Service Com-
mittee, told The LEADER this
week he would make “a special
effort” to obtain passage of a
bill to permit payment of overtime
to city and county employees.

‘The measure, now before the

Assembly Ways and Means Com-
mittee, has the endorsement of the
Civil Service Employees Associa-
tion. Mr. Wilcox introduced the
measure, together with Senator
Ernest I. Hatfield.

Mr. Wilcox said he had requested
the committee to report the bill.
Tts passage was seen as likely, if it
comes to a vote in the Assembly.

We know, Bob, that there are

lance in New York City—
lapse is often twice that,
was long enough for the in-
man to die. Police were
milling around. But they
could do nothing, looking on help-
Jess and uncomfortable until the
ambulance arrived — too late. Fif-
teen minutes earlier, and the in-
ured man might have lived.

In a similar incident, a noted
New York attorney — you know

im, Bob — was hit by an auto-
mobile on William Street in down-
town New York, just in front of
the Lehman Brothers firm. He lay
on his back, in the driving rain,
half-hour before an ambulance
showed up. He had a rough time
but he survived — more fortunate
than many,

Any New Yorker can recount
incidents like these.

Good politics, good public ad-
ministration, and a good way of
getting close to the people would
be to make certain that, when re-
quired, medical attention arrives
swiftly.

What Can Be Done?

What can be done? The Mayor
and his commissioners of Police,
Health, and Hospitals could con-
sider simple measures like these:

The trunk of every patrol car
might be equipped with a folding
portable stretcher, That immedi-
ately puts on the street the equiva-
lent of 533 additional ambulances.
‘The stretcher could be placed in a
large by-passing car and the in-
Jured person rushed to the nearest
hospital.

Every patrolman might be given
more extensive training in first

depressed. Sinls huge thing, for
which he pays taxes and which is
supposed to be his servant, looks
like a juggernaut riding over him.
Information for Citizens
Why cannot a citizen coming in
contact with his government be
assured of courtesy and elemen-
tary assistance? It’s not a big deal,
An information center headed by
a competent civil servant, to which
every citizen could apply and get
the information he needs, would
be the kind of personal help that
would be always remembered, The
citizen would indeed feel that he
is being treated like an individual,
not a cog. How much would it
cost to institute such an informa-
tion service? A pittance compared
with the good it would do, and

in it.

see impressively the need for in-
formation in our area, We get,
and we answer, thousands of ques-
tions, Many of them should be
answered by the Civil Service
Commission, Men and women feel

they have a right to answers. But} 2

the Commission, limited in funds
and personnel,
undertake to do more than a frag-
mentary job of supplying infor-
mation. Result: Disgruntled citi-
zens. They can't get the answers
they need. They have been hurt
personally,
Complaints

The Governor of Tennessee sets
aside regular days when he sees
any individual who wants to
talk with him, That can't be done
in New York City, But there are
ways of obtaining the same re-
sult.

Here is an example.

When Henry Epstein became
| Deputy Mayor of New York City
(as described elsewhere in this is-
sue), the first thing he did was
}to read every letter piled up in
| the Mayor's office, Every one was
| answered; and every letter re-
| ceived in City Hall hereafter will
be acknowledged. That's good
Politics, Why not a regular com-
plaint bureau? The citizen ought
to have a central point where his
gripes could be sent and evalu-
ated, Such a bureau would en-
courage responsible citizens, who
usually grumble off their beefs, to

see the need, Nothing requires that
they must wait until an atomic
explosion before they use the
knowledge they've learned.

All ambulances, private as well
as municipal, might be provided
with two-way radio, so that they
could leap swiftly, from any point,
to a place of real emergency.

All hospitals, private and vol-
untary, as well as public, might
be required to maintain an ambu-
Jance service. Perhaps the City
might find it useful to increase
{ts subsidies for such service.

‘These suggestions are not costly;
ff they were instituted, they would
add to the total of security for
the people of the City. They would
be tangible evidence that local
government, no soulless monster,
has a quick interest in every resi-
dent, It would be seen that in a
City of 8,000,000 every individual's
Ufe is considered precious.

‘This kind of thing is good poli-
ties, “close-to-the-people” politic:
In its way, it outranks big, impo.
tant projects as a source of politi-
ea! loyalty.

Another Area

Another case;

A man decides to open a little
shop. He rents a place, gets ready
to set up in business, and suddenly
discovers he needs a license from
the Fire Department, from the De-
partment of Housing and Build-
ings, from the Health Department
and from the License Department.
He needs to cut a curb, so he finds
himself enmeshed with the Dx
partment of Standards and Ap-
peals, as the result of a zoning
restriction, He learns not only that
all this is going to cost him a lot
of money in lawyers’ fees, but he’s
never certain what he needs and
what he doesn't need. So he goes
downtown to the Municipal Build-
ing. Nobody there to advise him.
Plaintively, he asks the elevator

starter what to do. Then he starts |

making the rounds, one depart-

ment to another, collecting forms

and rs Which he must fill out,

citizens would be encouraged to

doubtedly a wealth of

State Does It

State Commerce Dep
velops this kind of closeness. Any
woman can come to the Bureau
for assistance in developing a
source of income, The help given
has done great good for many
women, and has obviously been
of the highest political value —
for the help came where it was
most appreciated, in the purse.
Perhaps the City ought to provide}
such a service, both for men and
for women.

The State also works to help
upstate resort and camp owners
to obtain summer vacation busi-
ness, Clearly, this kind of assist-
ance has affirmative political ov-
-| ertones, because the resort entre-
preneur feels the influence where
it counts — also in his purse.

“Cameo” Political Thinking

This might be described as
“cameo” political thinking in con-
trast to the “big-deal” thinking
that seems to occupy most politi-
cal efforts, “Cameo” thinking is the
kind that get into and under-
stands the little needs of the lit-
tle people. Bob, we've given just a
few examples, With an imagi-
native approach to the vast City)
population and its individual]
needs, you can undoubtedly find|
many ways to provide this kind]
of political help. We know, Bob

NYC Labor Relations
Off to Good Start

he most momentous civil service news in many years
enanated from NYC circles last week: There is about
to be established for public employees one of the most
encompassing systems of labor relations existing in the
United States.

America

BEekmon 3-6010

The Civil Service LEADER has long advocated the
establishment of modern labor relations machi . We
see this step as equally ential with a reorganization of

tivil service — possibly even more essential. When em-
ployees know that they may have recourse to a proper
system for settling grievances; when personnel difficulties
are settled by regularized procedures rather than by
whim; when employee organ ns can deal with muni-
cipal authorities as equals around the bargaining table;
only then, as it has in private industry, will a true matur-
ity enter the relations of City employer and City worker,

Many details must still be worked out, of course. Laws
and precedents have to be studied, Joseph E. O'Grady,
who heads the new City Labor Department, wisely wants
to study the British system which appears to offer many
usable suggestions. The right of an employee to join an
organization of his own choosing will, it may be assumed,
be strongly affirmed. Mr. O’Grady also spoke of the pos-
sibility of exclusive recognition. It must be seen how this
would work, and whether it would be acceptable to the
existing organizations,

But while all the answers are not yet in, the adminis-
tration’s attitude is a healthy one. There is clear under-
standing that public employees do not constitute second-
class citizens. There is clear recognition that bargaining
— by whatever name it may be called — reality, and
should be extended. And, of outstanding significance, the
whole procedure would be, as now visualized, under the
Department of Labor rather than under the Civil Service
Commission. This w public employees would be as-
sured that the attitude taken toward them would be
similar to that existing toward employees in private in-
dustry. They would tend to get the same rights and
privileges, would be assured of the same dignity in treat-
ment

the City’s labor relations for public employees is off
to a good start. It will need sympathetic assistance from
all responsible sources to assure that it doesn’t bog down.

WHILE NYC's Mayor Robert F. Wagner has repeatediy said there
will be a pay raise, no word has been spoken about even its probable
extent. So here's the report on the present official thinking: 12
percent on the first $2,000; 2 percent on the next $2,000; 5 percent
on pay above $4,000; no increase to exceed $500. Sounds familiar?
It's the same as was granted in the last general raise in NYC, The
average would be about $350, Meanwhile the Mayor is trying to get
&s much money as he can for the purpose. The more he gets, the
better will be the benefit to NYC employees... . While minimum
teacher pay is set by State law, the City can increase the amount

for NYC Board of Education, and teachers are listed for a City
increase.

TESTIFYING before the Senate Post Office and Civil Service
committee, Philip Young, Chairman of the U.S. Civil Service Com-
mission, said:

“There is no politics in the career civil service.”

Senator Pastore (D., RI), laughed loud, and asked the hearing
reporter to note he had laughed, and that the laugh was loud... .
Identical bills have been introduced in Congress to grant longevity
increments after 10, 13 and 16 years of service, respectively; also
transfer of excess annual leave to the employee's annuity account
with the U.S. Civil Service Retirement System, overtime and incentive
pay differentials to be included in computaton of deductons for retire-
ment purposes... . The U.S. figures that the savings during 1953,

as the result of suggestions for which it offered awards to employees,
was $44,000,000,

EMPLOYEES regret President Eisenhower's veto of a bill that
would permit the Court of Claims to hear cases of Bureau of Prison
employees seeking pay in working Saturday afternoons in 1931-42,
as there are
many similar cases throughout the Federal service, and the President

. now showing a desire to limit, so far as possible, the number of
his “headaches.”

A CONFERENCE to have been held last week between the Munte

| cipal Civil Service Commission and the Budget Director's office on

the general plan of reclassification was postponed until this week,
when the number of grades, spreads between grades, and particularly
how much money will be available for the benefit of employees will
be discussed. The money is apart from the coming raise, which is
based on living costs. ‘The reclassification is planned to be based on
the worth of the job to NYC. Until the budgetary problem is settled,
no public hearings on the proposed reclassification will be held. It is
expected the Engineering Service will be the first one calendared....
The NYC Commission is about to certify the new social investigator
lst. Three eligibles’ cases are holding it up, and a decision will be
reached on them today ‘March 9), Residence and similar questions
are involved. . . . The bridge and tunnel officer list was certified by
NYC later than hoped, but held up because of thorough screening,

AN EX-CONVICT, arrested last week as a parole violator, was
worried about only one thing: Would it stop him from becoming @

certainly would,

LOOK FOR a bitter battle on State Preller Commission concerns

sion concerning ‘this issue; even veteran leaders on the Commission
don't see eye to eye. . . . Incidentally, nobody on the Preller Commis
(which is revising the State Civil Service Law) has been paid
since October, except one steno. They ran out of money... . The

hain that bas bound civil service administration generally throughout

the United States,

Departments themselves would have to supply the material, but
some central clearing-house would be a big help, for both stimula-
tion and guidance, A State Desk could do the job in the Commission's
office. NYC seems edging that way, with an editor-in-chief already
im City Administrator's office.

Civil Service Commissions are not usually adventurous, The

reorganized State Commission will offer some innovations, It would
be laudable to include this one.

te

HOW MUCH different civil service administration will be under
‘unaltered form of operation will depend less on the alterations than
on the appointees, The State's method is now in operation,

ONE OF THE EARLY SIGNS of how well any new Commission
will do is the extent to which it consults employees, particularly
through their representatives. Though the employees’ experience is
an asset the Commission obtains free, the value must not be judged by
the price. Consultation has been a practice in the State but perfec-
tion may as well be the ideal, although, by definition, an ideal is
unattainable,

“Could it happen yet,” asked an employee in @ local jurisdiction,
& fellow addicted to some patois, “that civil service will be adminis-
tered from the bottom up, inst of from the top down?”

The answer, was naturally, “Could be.”

WITH A SOLID HOLDOVER member, Commissioner Alexander
A. Falk, and the new distaff member to be Mary Goode Krone on
March 15, Chairman Taylor has trusty aides. Miss Krone has had
personnel experience, She is Chairman of the State Personnel Council,
Until she makes the switch, she is Deputy Tax Commissioner. Chair-
man Taylor comes from the New York Telephone Company, where he
spent years as personne! chief.

We've been hearing so much of late of the benefit of having an
expert personnel director, now at last we shall see what results are
obtained, In the State, the Chairman is the Personnel Director.

EMPLOYEE CONSULTATION has been given official recogni-
tion by the U. S. Civil Service Commission in the creation of the
Federal Employees Interest Program, Hal J, Miller, director of the
Program, supplies expert printed information to employee
Groups, succinctly stating the end result of various wordy laws,
rules and regulations. The National Association of Federal Career
Employees, consisting mostly of workers in U. 8. defense offices, has
Passed a resolution heartily indorsing the program,

Mr, Miller has been nominated for special recognition by the
awards committee of the American Association for Public Informa-|
tion, Education and Research, “for improving civil service morale
and a public understanding of government through development of
the Federal Employee Interest Program,”

Absurdity Alleged
“The eight men who made the

Kitchen Cabinet

‘There is a “kitchen cabinet” in
City Hall over which Epstein pre-
sides. In addition to Epstein, the
Mayoral aides who participate in
the regular weekly meetings are:
Nelson Seite], Stanley Lowell, War-
Ann

group is not the total cabinet, but
the inner group working around
Wagner, They screen all mat-
ters that are up for the Mayor's
consideration, and dispose of as
many as they can. Work has been
so delegated that Mayor Wagner
can devote himself to major pol-
icy matters.

The larger cabinet includes Mr.
Epstein, Dr, Luther Gulick and his
deputies, Charles Preusse and John
Connorton; Corporation Counsel
Adrian Burke; Budget Director
Abe Beame; and from time to
time, various department heads.
In this kind of a setup, aren't
personality clashes inevitable?
Epstein confirms what has been
common observation, There are
relatively few personality clashes,
and what there were at the be-
ginning, Epstein says, have sub-
sided.

The Deputy Mayor often sits for

the Mayor on the Board of Esti-|
mate. Before such sessions, he and}
Wagner canvass the Board's cal-
endar thoroughly, so that he is
completely apprised of the Mayor's
viewpoints,
*There are any number of situa-
tions where department heads feel
they have to talk to Bob directly,”
says Epstein, and they always have
access to the Mayor, “But where
problems can be kept from him,
and solved by the lower echelons, |
we do it,”

The Mail
One of the first tasks he under-
took upon entering office was to
read through the accumulation of
Jetters that was piled up in City
Hall. He divided the letters into
71 categories. The categories were
then divided up among the May-
or's aides. All letters were any
swered, The policy now is that
every communication reaching
City Hail is acknowledged.
‘Tasks Ahead
What does Epstein see as the

EPSTEIN

muses, “Is to get security and con~
fidence among the people concern-
ing the City's government, to have
them understand that-our govern
ment is not @ political football,
that money is not being frittered
away.”

Among specific problems which
Mr. Epstein feels the City must
lick, these rank high on the jist:

The traffic problem. “New York
will rise or fall on what happens
to traffic, We are considering the
Possibilities of both central and
off-street parking areas, among =
variety of other plans, This is the
kind of problem that is within our
Power to resolve to some extent.”

Schools: “We must build rapidly
so that we will be able to absorb
our enlarged, diversified popula-
tion, We must see that teacher
morale goes up.”

Police, “The force is now under=
going a re-shaping that will be
Productive of superior protection
and that the members of the force
themselves will appreciate.”
Racial groups. “The various ra-
¢ial groups in the City must be
integrated, and the contributions
of each better appreciated. The
Puerto Rican population offers @
most valuable Jabor group that
should be fully used.”
Concerned With Many Things
Racial relations have been a
concern of Henry Epstein. Since
his college days, he has been ac-
tive with the Anti-Defamation
League. In college, too, he was
engaged in many things. He won
more academic prizes than any
other student in his class, And he
pitehed for the Phi Beta Kappa
baseball team, There was an_an-
nual game between the Phi Bet's
of Harvard and the Phi Bet's of
Yale. Epstein still recalls ruefully
that Archibald MacLeish, who
played for the Yale team, hit a
home run off him, He played ten-
nis so well that he won his dormi-
tory championship. He still plays
tennis and golf, In tennis, he now
plays doubles; in golf, he calls
himself “about an Eisenhower
golfer.”

From South Carolina
He was born on January 14,
1896, in Port Royal, 5. C., took his
Harvard degree in 1915 and grad-
uste from Harvard Law School in
1921. He taught school in Arling~
ton, Mass., and during World War
I was a lieutenant j.g. in the Navy.
He practiced law until his selece
tion as Solicitor General in 1932,
an office he held for ten years. In
this post he took an active part
drafting welfare legislation, and
arguing eases involving minimum
Wages, unemployment insurance
and social security legislation, In
1942, he was Democratic candidate
for State Attorney General, and

basic tasks to be accomplished by
the Wagner administration? }
“The fundamental task," he!

in 1946, ran on the Democratic
ticket as candidate for a judgeship
on the Court of Appeals.

4. The principles espoused in the
various studies under Dr. Gulick's
direction are such as to support
the contention of the Administra-
tive Assistant Eligibles Association.

The Assocation has prepared a
history of administrative assistant
vacancies, Its memorandum fol-
lows:

“The title of administrative as-
sistant was established about 1940
as an aid both to the administra-
tive effectiveness of the City and
to the career system. It was in-
tended originally to provide a
means of recruitment into the City
service of competent college or ad-
ministratively trained personnel
and as a path along which the em-
ployees of the City who demon-
strated their merit and fitness
could rise to the administrative
| levels through promotion,

“After the exhausting of the
first established lists for the posi-
tion, the ttle, however, was used
as a refuge for political appointees
and favorites and by 1951 when a
new test for the position was or-
dered, there were 50 provisional
employees in the title, Most of
