Says City Should

Patrolman's Pay
Editor, The Leader;
Election has come and gone
and the N.Y.C. Welfare Patrol-
men are still waiting, as usual,
for some sign of good faith from
their department and the city ad-
ministration, Recently hundreds
of city titles were up-graded and
their salaries increased, yet the
OME weeks ago, these columns warned the public service
not to be over-complacent about the Merit System, and
pointed out that it was still an unknown blessing in some
areas,
city Welfare Police are still being
paid the same as cleaners, $3500-
$4580. ‘This is not the “Equal Pay
For Equal Work” as boasted by
| the City of New York for its em-

Jan, says the CSEA, is “compromising the true spirit of Gad es at least in parity with the
Merit System” by placing an “unwarranted number" of per-|
sons in the exempt and non-competitive classes without first
considering them for competitive status.
The Employees Association has also attacked the method
by which calendar meetings of the Commission are held, The
CSEA claims that these meetings, where requests for classi-
fication changes are approved or disapproved, are held with-
out sufficient notice to interested parties, therefore denying
them a chance to argue for or against calendar requests.
Mr, Kaplan’s reply to the CSEA charges was—‘Non-
sense!" And as to a special meeting held last month to ap-|
prove calendar requests, Mr. Kaplan termed this meeting “an
emergency.” He did not, however, describe the nature of the
emergency.
Mr. Kaplan's answers are hardly a defense against the
Employees Association charges. Nor do they disprove the
Association's contentions that he is compromising the Merit
Sytem by authorizing continued exempt or non-competitive
classifications,
A more detailed, logical and serious answer is needed,
Mr, Kaplan.
Grant Health Insurance
To Retired Employees
HE Board of Estimate last week heard arguments from
twenty-five representatives of employees groups favor-
ing a choice of health plans. The Board is now contemplat-
ing the matter and will re-open the hearing on Noy. 21.
We hope that they vote to accept the report and grant
the choice to all city employees. However, as James King,
vice president of the Uniformed Fireman's Association pointed
out, the measure does not go far enough and should serve as
an interim report, Retired members must be brought into
the system. Retirement benefits are not flexible as are salar-|
Jes, The cost of any extra benefit can be a burden to a
retired man, especially if he has a family,
The state and federal government currently offers hey
extra to pensioners, Why can't the city?
We again urge employees, if the plan is accepted, to take
home a copy of the four-plan comparison, discuss it with his
family and his physician and see which plan best suits his
need and means, A choice or change made in haste can be #
regretable error,

LAW & YOU
—— = By HAROLD L. AERO
Mr. Herzsteln is a member of the New York bar
(The views expressed In this column are those of the writer and
not necessarily constitute the views of this newspaper or of any
organization.)
Recent Work Period Decisions
Part One
Figuring the Work Week
THERE ARE quite a few laws which limit the work week of various
groups of civil service employees to a fixed number of hours a week,
One such, Chapter 764 of the Laws of 1956, effective on July 1, 1957,
was sponsored in the Legislature by the effective and experienced police
lobby.
The New Police Laws
CONCISELY, the law provided that no patrolman “shall be as-
signed to more than forty hours of duty during any consecutive seven
| day period.” The law is statewide in effect.
THERE WAS an exception to the law in New York City where a
resolution of the Board of Estimate made pursuant to Section 884~
of the Administrative Code authorized the Police Commissioner to ex~
tend the week by two hours to forty-two hours, with additional com-
pensation. The Commissioner acted on that authority, Consequently,
the maximum police work week was forty hours throughout the State,
generally, and forty-two hours in New York City (with additional com-
pensation),
The Fight Starts
ON APRIL 17, 1961, the New York City Police Commissioner issued
General Order No, 17, the subject of the controversy about which I am
writing. The purpose, stated in the Order was “to provide additional
patrol coverage during the evening hours when maximum patrol haz-
ards exist." A new tour of duty from 6:00 PM, to 2:00 A.M. was added
by the order and {t required patrolmen to work six consecutive eight
hour days. Order No. 17 was challenged as a violation of the combinae
tion of Chapter 764 of the Laws of 1986, the police forty-hour work-
week law and Section 884-.0 of the New York Clty Administrative Code,
which extended that work week by two hours, to a forty-two hour
week. Obviously, if the forty-eight hour work week were a violation of
law, {t would be @ violation of both the forty and forty-two hour week
laws.
SOME OF THE patrolmen affected by Order No. 17 brought a pro
ceeding in the Supreme Court for a court order directing the Police
Commissioner to desist from what they claimed to be a violation of the
maximum working hours for them fixed by law. The proceeding came
before Judge Frederick Backer, sitting in Manhattan. He wrote the
kind of opinion lawyers like (Matter of Schiltz vy. Murphy, New York
Law Journal, August 18, 1961, Page 3, coluns 7 and 8), On each issue
he lined up the arguments of each contesting party, and then called his
shots, Such opipions are so much superior to abstract opinions which
come from on algh. A reading of the Judge's opinion in this proceeding
ts Uke watching an experienced and competent major league umpire in
action.
The Principle Holding
ON THE SUBJECT of this installment, “Figuring the Work
Week", Judge Backer's opinion tells the story better than 1 can, The
Judge summarized the claim made by the policy, as follows:
However, upon the issuance of the General Orders No, 17, peti-
tioners asserted their objections thereto which is the subject of
review on the instant application. Petitioners argue that in issulng
the police commissioner has thus indicated that he will not be
circumscribed by the existing law; that he requires petitioners and
all patrolmen to work six consecutive 8-hour days thereby arrang-
ing working hours in such manner he deems advisable so long as an.
average of forty hours (or forty-two hours as long as the Board of
Evimate Resolution remains effective) per week 's maintained;
that the statute forbids averaging.
THE JUDGE in deciding in favor of the police wrote, in his
| opinion, as follows:
“It (referring to the law) forbids averaging in language that
! unmistakably clear, It does not prescribe an “average” 40-hour
week, The law expressly prohibits more than 40-hours of work “in
any seven consecutive day period,” The Board of Estimate has
authorized only an additional 2 hours “per week.” Thus the
assignment of petitioners to six consecutive &hour days is a clear
violation of law,
Conclusion
JUDGE BACKER’S opinion ‘s not limited to a police work week
and Newburgh on ® one day per’ the monthly amount you ean get or to New York City employees. It applies to any law which fixes @
week basis, after the closing Of | ig permanently reduced. In other | maximum number of hours for a work week for any employees any

Percy Caplan, 135 Ontarlo Street,
Albany, Senior Clerk in the De-
partment of Motor Vehicles, Mr
Caplan suggested revision of his
Department’s form for failure to
display inspection stickers on
automobiles more than four years
old. The new form will ask if
inspection has been made between
the time of arrest and the time
of conviction, This will prevent
the automatic suspension of reg-
istration in 70 per cent of such
Gases, It will eliminate several
Gostly form processing steps and
improve public relations.

dow Road, Kings Park, Principal
Stationary Engineer at the State
University’s Agricultural and

heating during construction of
new buildings. Its use also permits
closing down of the school's large
450-horsepower boiler during the
summer
