that many Jabor leaders were giv-
ing firm support to the Mayor
but that others were refusing to
take any stand on the tax Issue.
“We aren't making the promise
that if the employee organiza-
‘ions support Mayor Lindsay's tax
programs they will get all they
want when they come to City
Hall to bargain,” Price declared
“But,” the outspoken Deputy
Mayor said, “it would seem ob-
vious that the City will be in no
Position to do any serious bar-
gaining on wage increases with-
out new monies—and more of
labor should be helping us find
support for those monies.”
Price said the Lindsay Admin-
istration was “economizing all
over the place” and that laying
off civil servants would be the
very last, drastic economy, “We
want to improve services, not cui
them, and we have a wonderful
@orps of public employees cap-
able of delivering the best,” Price
declared. “But we must have the
money in the future to pay
them.”

Lindsay's office, still likes his job,
still dismisses the tags of “Boy
Scout Brigade” and other such
remarks and still claims he has
no aims for political office,
“I may not stay here the whole
four years,” he says with a smile,
“but I intend to stay in politics.
An elective office has never been
of any interest to me and never
will be,” he declared.
“Our team has taken hold
now,” Price said, “and I think we
have corrected a jot of the early
mistakes in style and perform~-
}ance, It's going to be a red hot
four years of top performance
from the Lindsay team.”
The Deputy Mayor also ex-
plained why he had rejected a
major position in the forthcom-
|ing GOP gubernatorial campaign.
“This job (at City Hall) and the
campaign are both gigantic tasks.
I couldn't do justice to either on
a part time basis and my first
loyalty now is to do the job the
Mayor has appointed me to do.”
Price also noted that although
the Lindsay Administration was
going to give the City 9 bipartisan
government “that doesn’t mean
that I'm not still a voting Re-
publican, 1 am.”

New Bill Would
Prevent Sabbath
Penalties In CS
The State Assembly has
passed a bill, introduced by
Assemblyman Seymour Posner
(D. Bronx), to prevent dis-
crimination against Sabbath ob-
servers seeking employment in
civil service. Assemblyman Noah
Goldstein «D, Bklyn) is the co-
sponsor of the bill.
‘The Posner-Goldstein bill would
add a new section to the Civil
Service Law to prohibit the State
or municipal civil service com-
missions or a school district from
discriminating against persons
who are unable to work on Sat-
urday or must leave early on Pri-
day afternoon because of their
religious beliefs. The state or city
agency or department would work
out an arrangement with the
employee to make up the lost
time; charge it to annual leave;
or deduct it from his salary.
Policemen, firemen and per-
sons engaged in public transpor-
tation, such as bus drivers and
subway motormen, would be ex-
cluded from the provisions of the
bill.

conglomeration of words, words
and more words—and lots of pic-

commissioners.
IN ALL fairness, it must be
said that annual reports from
government entities are getting
better. If they are as excel-
Jent as the 1965 annual report
of the New York State Depart-
moderate for the immense value
received.
THE BASIC objective of any
annual report is to communicate
by word and illustration a de-
partment’s accomplishments for
the year just passed, and to set
forth plans, objectives, and hopes
for the future.
REPORTING THE problems
are also in order, A discussion of
problems enhances the docu-
ments authenticity and mini-
mizes the chance that’ the an+
nual report will deteriorate into
a “puff sheet” for the top brass.
THE 1965 annua) report of the
Department of Health is at-
tractively designed, and above all,
typographically readable. It is
produced by the offset process,
and, we suspect, it was skillfully
processed right within the De-
partment itself.
FOR EXAMPLE, most of the
78-page report is set in type-
writer type—doubie-spaced. This
could have clicked right out of
the roller of one of the depart-
ment's own typewriters, pasted on
to @ clean white pages ,illustra-

then reproduced on @ thin metal
plate by a photographic process.

ALBANY—The Civil Service

promise from the Division of

for possible upgrading as pro-
vided in the current budget,
Replying to a direct request

rector of the Budget, stated:

Job Still Not Done
ITH the resumption of the 1966 session of the Legis-
W lature, State employees still have their work cut out
for them in order to assure passage of two important pieces
of retirement legislation.
The first of these is a bill that would provide a 1/60th
retirement for all future members of the State Retirement
System to give a guaranteed half-pay retirement. At the
same time, such a measure would provide liberal retroac-
tive benefits for present Retirement System members, A bill
to accomplish this goal, introduced by Comptroller Arthur
Levitt and passed by the Legislature, was vetoed by Gov-
ernor Rockefeller on technical grounds. He did not pass
on the merits of the bill, however, and the Civil Service
Employees Assn. has prepared new legislation to overcome
any. technical objections,
The second bill would provide a $2,000 death benefit
after retirement to all State employees with 10 years full
time service. wt
Both measures must pass the Legislature and win the
approval of the Governor. For that reason, public employees
must again launch a new drive in contacting legislators and
the Governor in order to assure passage and approval of
these vital measures.
The Inflation of 3.2
T appears now that the President has been spectacularly
| peor in convincing all parties invloved that any
Federal pay raise and fringe benefit liberalization this year
should come within his 3.2 wage-hike guideline. Consider-
ing the promises made at last year’s hearings and the firm
commitment to the concept of pay comparability with pri-
vate enterprise (a lawful pursuit as of President Kennedy's
Administration) voiced by so many in Congress then, the
President's victory here is almost awesome, And it will bene-
fit him greatly in his fight to impose the 3.2 restrictions
elsewhere.
It is reported however, that the Administration is voic-
ing consternation because the House bill is some fitfy mil-
lion dollars over the total which would amount to an over-
all 3.2 pay budget increase.
In at least one case this is only fair. A portion of the
legislation allows for an increase in benefits for Federal
workers who retired between 1948 and 1956, Their present
benefit rate has long been outdated by time’s attrition of
the dollar value.
They should be compensated now.
At the same time, however, their compensation should
not be charged against the working Federal employee for
whom a 3.2 restriction on possible added wages and benefits
should mean, at least, nothing less.

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
97 Duane St., New York, N.Y. 10007.
\Arthur Levitt Reaches
Own Conclusions On
Retirement Questions
Editor, The Leader:
A well intentioned letter to the
editor appearing in your April
5, 1966 edition has caused un-
justified apprehension and con-
cern on the part of some mem-
bers of the New York State Em-
ployees’ Retirement System.
Unfortunately, the letter con-
tained some erroneous conclu-
sions concerning Federal taxation
of benefits accruing to a bene-
ficiary upon the death of a mem-
ber of the State Employees’ Re-
tirement System.
Under present provisions of the
State Retirement Law, a benefi-
ciary may elect payment of a
death benefit in annuity form
rather than in lump sum where
the member has selected no pay-
ment option, The Internal Rev-
jenue Code recognizes the right of
a beneficiary to make an annuity
election in such circumstances.
The same provisions are allowed
in the Retirement and Socla] Se-
curity Law.
An annuity election may be
made by a member during his
lifetime. However, few members
of the Retirement System have
selected this | provision,
In’common with most ‘geherall-
ties, such as those advanced in
the letter in question, it is not
necessarily prudent for a: mem-
ber to make an election of death
benefit payment option during his |
lifetime. By so doing, he prevents
his designated beneficiary from
making a personal selection of the
mode of payment of the death
benefit in the light of immediate
circumstances, financial and
otherwise, best known to the ben-
eficary.
Any advance selection by a
member may not anticipate fu-
ture variations and changes in
the Federal Tax Code. Such a
decision could be to the detriment
of a beneficiary left with no
choice but a mandated annuity.
‘The taxability of death bene-
fits or other retirement benefits
is a complex subject. Important
decisions concerning the most ad-
vantageous payment option of
these benefits should only be
made after discussion with quali-
fied tax consultants and the In-
ternal Revenue Service.

Civil Service
Law & You
By WILLIAM GOFFEN
(Mr, Goffen, a member of the New York Bar, te:
College of the City of New York, is the author of
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)
Judicial Review
A RECENT opinion considers the scope of judicial review
of an administrative determination denying an application
for a service-connected pension.
THE PETITIONER, a New York City Patrolman, was re-
tired for ordinary disability upon the application of the Police
Commissioner. The Commissioner's authority appears in the
Administrative Code of the City of New York, Section B18-
42.0, providing:
“Medical examination of a member in city-service for
ordinary disability shall be made upon the application of
the Commission . . . stating that such member is physic-
ally or mentally incapacitated for the performance of
duty and ought to be retired.”
THE CODE provision further provides that if the medical
examination establishes that the officer is incapacitated for
the performance of duty, he must be retired.
THE PETITIONER was about to be retired in May 1965,
but he submitted a letter by his psychiatrist in which it was
stated that the petitioner's disability was service-connected,
Upon review of the psychiatrist’s letter, however, the Board
of Medical Examiners adhered to its original opinion, and
the employee was retired on an ordinary disability pension
in November 1965. Because of the employee's length of ser-
vice (12 years), the decision meant a pension of approxl-
mately one-fourth of his salary instead of the three-fourths
he would have received if his disability were found to be ser-
vice-connected. In view of the serious consequences of the
adverse determination, the facts and the court's application
of the law warrant more detailed consideration.
IN 1957, THE petitioner slipped and fell while dispersing
two disorderty'men: He’ cut’his er ee
the sidewalk. The,wounds required \hospitalization \for five.
weeks and a tendon transplant|to the middle finger of the
left hand. Five months, after the accident, the petitioner wi
returned’ to ‘fll’ duty. A month later he was assigned to
limited duty for a period of two years, He then returned to
full duty for another three years after which he was reas-
Signed to limited duty in which capacity he served for a three
year period terminating in his forced retirement.
IN DETERMINING that the petitioner ought to be re-
tired, the Medical Board found he was suffering from an
anxiety neurosis. This diagnosis was reached by an honorary
police psychiatrist who decided on a brief interview that the
employee's “psychosomatic symptoms stem from having to
do a job that has become boring and tedious, if not distaste-
ful.”
IN SUPPORT of his contention at Special Term that his
disability was casually related to the service-incurred injury
to his left hand years earlier, the petitioner submitted an
opinion by a hand surgeon who recommended “surgical ex-
ploration of the digital nerve and tendon” at the tip of the
left middle finger. The petitioner also submitted psychiatric
support for the contention that his disabling anxiety neuro-
sis was service-connected, The conclusion of his psychiatrist
was that the injury impaired the power of his left hand
with the result that he felt insecure in the performance of
his duties becoming increasingly irritated and developing
headaches and dizziness. The psychiatrist concluded that
continuing frustrations revolving about the injury led to the
anxiety state.
IN RESOLVING the issues, the Court cited the famous
Shoeck case invoving a fireman who claimed a service-con-
nected disability pension, In the cited case, the Court of
Appeals ruled that the Medical Board’s determination of dis-
ability is binding upon the Board of Trustees of the Pension
Fund, On the other hand, the question of service-connection
must be determined independently by the trustees who may
disregard the finding of the Medical Board denying service-
connection unless that finding ts “incontestably correct.”
Special Term, giving an interesting twist to the Shoeck case,
held there was no incontestable finding that the “chronic
anxiety” was service-connected, Yet, the rationale of the
Schoeck case is that the very absence of an incontestable
finding by the Medical Board regarding service-connection
places the burden upon the Board of Trustees of indepen-
dently determining the question of causal relationship, There
is no evidence that the Board of Trustees made such a de~
termination, Instead, it blindly accepted the Medical Board's
conclussion, Nevertheless, the Court dismissed the petition
on the unrelated ground that a choice between conflicting
medical opinions was not within the scope of judicial review,

Manager,
The
Statewide
Plan
This column will appear perlod-
ically, As a public service, Mr,
O'Brien will answer questions rel-
ative to the Statewide Plan. Please
submit your questions to Mr.
O'Brien, Blue Cross-Blue Shield
Manager, The Statewide Plan, 135
Washington Ave., Albany, N.Y.
Please do not submit questions per-
taining to specific claims, Only
questions of general interest cag
| be answered here.
Q. I wilh be 65 in a tow
months, If I carry both
Part B of Medicare and my
Statewide Plan, will I be
carrying more coverage
than I need?
A. No. The Statewide Plan will
not duplicate any features
of the Medicare program. In
fact, if you do not carry Part
B of Medicare, you actually
will be denying yourself need=
ed coverage. So I urge you to
| sign up for both parts of the
| Medicare program as soon as
you become eligible.
Q. You have urged all these
65 or older to enroll fer
Part B of Medicare (the
one that costs $3 a month.)
Will any adjustment be
made in the cost of the
Statewide Plan premium
to make up for this?
Yes, Your contribution te
the cost of coverage in the
| statewide Plan will be re-
duced $3 a month for each
Person on your contract who
\ts 65 years of age or older.
Thus, you will have additional
benefits at no extra cost to
you by combining Medicare
and your Statewide Plan coy-
erage.
Q. Last year the Legislature
passed a new law that
State employees’ accumu-
Jated sick leave time would
be used to pay Statewide
Plan premiums upon re-
tirement, Please explain
how this works.
A. At the time of retirement,
the dollar value of accum-
ulated sick leave is determ-
ined, Then it is determ-
ined by actuarial computation
what the individual life ex-
pectancy is in months, and
the number of months Is di-+
vivded into the amount of ace
cumulated sick leave to arrive
ata monthly deduction, Your
monthly premiums are then
reduced by this amount,

H.1.P.
Don’t get us wrong. We like lawyers and accountants. But they have a special kind of
talent and patience not available to the rest of us.
Few of us are keen on keeping records, filling in forms, puzzling over small print, figuring
out percentages , . . or trying to erystal-ball how much we will be out of pocket for an
operation or for specialist care,
H.LP. is the sworn enemy of paperwork and extra charges. It believes in paid-in-advance
medical services — not cash allowances toward doctor bills.
In H.I.P.* basic service program there is no need to study the policy line by line to see
what is and what is not covered .. . There are no fee schedules and no claim forms*. . .
No need to worry over insufficient cash allowances’. . . No need to “share” additional
charges through deductibles and co-insurance . .. No need to accumulate and total up
medical bills . , . No need to discuss family income with the doctor,
And you don’t have to watch for limits either on number of services or kinds of services,
*In the HIP. Medical Group Program you need claim forms only for emergency care given by non-H.L.P. physicians. If
you have optional coverage, you need them for anesthesia and prescribed drugs because of the nature of these benesits,

John P, Myers
ALBANY—‘In the death of
John P. Myers, the former
chancellor of the State Board of
Regents, the State has lost one
©f its most distinguished citizens.”
This was a portion of the
statement issued here by State
Education Commissioner James
E. Allen following the death of
the Plattsburgh, New York resi-
dent.
Dr. Allen also declared:
“His concept of the duties of
good citieznship included not
only attention to the obligations
of his role as a successful busi-
nessman and banker ,but also an
active concern for, and partici-
pation in, the afafirs of church,
community, and state
“A truly educated man with
a keen intellect and an eager-
ness for knowledge, Mr. Myers
understood and accepted, with-
out reservation, the responsibility
of the educated for education
Beginning with many years of
service on the Board of Educa-
tion of the City of Plattsburgh,
he etxended his concern by be-
coming first a member, and then
Chancellor of the State Board of
Regents.
The period of Chancellor
Myer's service on the Board of
Regents was one of the most sig-
nificant in the history of educa-
tion in our State, and in his
thirteen years as a Regent he
brought to his task a sensiti-
vity, an understanding and a
@edication which contributed
greatly to the work of the Board
fm those difficult and challeng.
tng times.

| Kelly will seek final action on

York policemen to engage’ |
in} outside work when it does not |
conflict with their hours of duty. |
The Brooklyn legislator said
the measure explicitly sets up
guidelines that would prevent |
an officer from engaging in work |
that would harm his “abi

Kelly explained that while the
Police Department's regulations
prohibit extra work or “moon-
lighting” on the part of police
officers, the Fire Department
| permits such outside employment
|during off-duty hours,
“The Fire Department regula- |
tions consist of reasonable regula-
lations and safeguards that in-

and, at the same time do not
exert an extraordinary and burd-
ensome control over the private

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR
(Continued from Page
without my knowledge, ran out,
for ome item that an effort is
being made to increase the pen-
sions of retirees, We are the work
horses that have been put out
to pasture and forgotten.
‘There is before me the October
26, 1965 issue containing an ar-
‘ticle that Mr. Levitt would in-
troduce a Cost-of-Living increase
for retired aides in the ‘66 Leg-
islative Session, This article
states: “The bill would mandate
@ funded supplemental pension
based on the cost of living index.”
I am grateful to Mr. Levitt for
dis efforts in our behalf, How-
ever, I do not feel our pensions
sbould be increased on the basis
of cost-of-living increases alone. I
believe when the salaries of State
employees are increased, a per-
centage of those increases should
be given to retirees or some other
euitable method devised to take
eare of the people who worked
for so many years and gave of
themselves so unselfishly in the
rervice of the State,
We are still members of the
CSEA and I paid into this or-
ganiaztion for 42% years and I
feel we can rightfully expect the
SBA to do something in our be-
half and not expend all their ef-
forts on employees now in service,

The program for each tour wiil
be the same. Participants will fly
by jet to San Francisco and after
I am not unmindful of what
the Organization accomplished
during my years of service for)
the State of New York, and, I/
believe, the greatest of its|
achievements was the passage of
the Feld-Hamilton bill. Many of
the present employees never
heard of this bill although they
are benefiting by it. My pension
now, as axe most of the State re-
tirees, is based, partly on the
wolaries I received when State
employees were paid such low
talaries, applicants could not be
found to fill vacancies. And, in-
cidentally, our pensions are paid
from a fund that we contributed
to for years.
May I then ask Governor Rock-
¢efeller or State Comptroller Levitt
or the Civil Service Employees
Assn. or all of you to espouse our
cause and not forget the people
who worked for the State of New
York for so many, many years
