Feily Urges Support

The Civil Service Employees
Assn. has, for years, stressed the
burden placed on State employees
by having to lay out money while
conducting” the “State's business
and presented considerable docu-
mentary evidence to support its
arguments. One of the worst fa-
*eets of the employee paying ex-
penses first was the fact that
many State workers often had to
get bank loans to finance particu-

Joseph F, Feily, CSEA president,
said Levitt’s proposed legislation
would “lighten the burden con-
siderably” and should have the
support of the Legislature and the
Administration,

Systematic procedures are be-
ing developed in the Levitt pro-
posal for employees on @ con-
tinuous travel status and for
those who travel occasionally

Comptroller Levitt said the leg-
islative change was recommended
by a three-man Travel
Committee composed of represen-

addition to the State budget.

were adamant on a minimum
figure of eight percent. It was
only in the last hours of nego-
tiations that the Administration
agreed to the CSEA figure.
Highest In 10 Years

The total money won for the
1966 increase, Bendet pointed out,
was equivalent to the funds
alloted for the 1962 and 1964
raises combined and is the highest
single raise won by the CSEA in
over 10 years. The bulk of this
year’s pay raises will go to some
84 percent of the State's working
force who earn less than $8,000
a year

CSEA delegates at their annual
meeting in October asked for @

Employees Can Look For
Raise Despite Budgeting

Despite the emphasis on the high cost of the war in
Viet Nam and the Administration's refusal to back down on
the Great Society budgeting pace, both clearly stated in
President Johnson's recent State of the Union message,

Federal employzes are confident
}of gaining « ralse in salary in
1966 for the fifth consecutive year.

It is unlikely however that any
salary hike this year will bring
Government employees up to .he
comparability standard which the
Democratic Administration spoke
so highly of just a few short
years ago.

Federal employee representatives
are expected to ask for at least a

| around and the likelihood is that
the resulting legislation will al-
jlow between three and five per-
cent.

Oddly enough, the victory of
John V, Lindsay over a well en-
twenehed Democratic organization |
in New York City may have a|
{lot to do with legislation calling
for any Federal pay hike passing
" both Houses of Congress, Lind-

|incumbent Democratic congress-
men, up for reelection this year,
cause to believe that their con-

jome attraction to certain Repub-
lican candidates in the coming
local campaigns. A vote against
pay raise for the ubiquitous Fed-
eral work force would not be a
prized credit for a lawmaker har-
boring such apprehensions.

Another generating factor In
the pay raise activity will prob-
ably be the promise made by Ad-
ministration spokesmen before the

Rockefeller Pay Proposal
Deserves Strong Support

E lend—as do the State’s 127,000 employees—our en-

thusiastic support to Governor Rockefeller’s proposal
this week to raise the wages of all State workers in all
grades by eight percent. The negotiations between his ad-
ministration and the Civil Service Employees Assn. were con-
ducted these past months in an atmosphere of scrupluous
honesty and fairness, There was a thorough attempt by both
sides to get the best possible salary increase for these
employees,

Last year, State worker's wages lagged behind the wages
of their counterparts in private industry by an average of
eight percent. This year, the gap in wages has reached about
12 percent. It can be seen that this year’s pay increase, then,
closes the distance by just about two thirds. In this area,
it should be noted that when public employees are always
behind in receiving comparable wages with private industry
there is nothing inflationary about trying to bring them
up to par.

There are other areas of improvement in State employ-
ment that are still to be fought for, particularly in the areas
of better retirement and a fair solution to the problem of
unused sick leave. Vast strides have been made in these
areas but there are still improvements that can be made.

Overall, however, Governor Rockfeller has once again
kept his word to State employees and the Legislature is ex-
pected to give his wage proposals quick approval.

Check Attitudes
Of State Aides

I believe alert management
would be concerned if thelr turn-
over rate was high and the mor-
ale was low, The recent attempts
by “activist’ labor oganizations to
move into the areas represented
by the .Civil Service Employees
Assn. is a symtom of employee
discontent.

The personnel textbooks Hst the
wants of workers. The desire for
human digntiy and respect for
the individual rank high. The
Condon-Waldin Act, by outlawing
strikes, portects inept supervision.
This leaves only the quit or “hang-
ing on’. As a result the age
groups in civil service seems to be
largely in the 20's and over 45,

The Federal, State and local
governments are committed to a
program which recognizes human
dignity. If this philosophy is not
respected in supervision the ten-
sions may be discharged at the
Public, We cannot allow this to
happen as the public, in all its
diversity, is the reason for our
existence,

I would like to suggest a pro-
gram like this:

1—An attitude survey of New
York State Civil Service em-
ployees by a good manage-
ment consultant. The ma-
chinery used in CSEA elec-
tions, could be used,

2—A mandatory course in mod-
ern supervisory techniques
for every employee promoted
to @ supervisory position,
Also @ good refresher course
every three years, The cur-
riculum would be submitted
to the CSEA for suggestions.

In any such program it is neces-
sary that support come from the
top levels of administration, I
would be interested in hearing
the employees’ reaction to this
Suggestion, Does it really meet a
need!

Law & You

By WILLIAM GOFFEN

(Mr. Goffen, » member of the New York Rar, teaches law at the
College of the City of New York, is the author of many books and
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.") ”

Prolonged Limited Duty

THE ADMINISTRATIVE Code empowers the Police Com-

missioner to compel the retirement of an officer for ordinary.
disability. Upon the Commissioner’s statement that the of-

ficer ought to be retired, he is given a medical examin-

ation. If he is determined to be physically or mentally in-

capacitated for the performance of duty, he is retired.

IF AN OFFICER is assigned to limited duty status for
medical reasons, he risks compulsory retirement at any time
upon the Commisioner's application. The officer should theree_
fore strive for early reassignment to full duty.

THE DRASTIC consequences of prolonged limited duty
status are illustrated by a recent case. A patrolman with
15 years of outstanding service including five citations
was charged with misconduct based on specifications such as
“assault on female” and “consorting with female not his,
wife.” The charges were served because of the female's com#
plaints concerning the patrolman to the Police Department.

THE DEPARTMENT required the officer to submit to
psychiatric treatment at Bellevue Hospital for possible men-
tal disorder. The Hospital report was ambiguous in that it

|
stated:

\
“Our studies here indicate we are dealing with a
man who is quite emotionally sick ...

“He is in good contract; has been quiet, cooper-
ative and friendly in the Ward. However, he does
harbor some suspicions and resentments to some of
his fellow officers and his girl-friend. The situation
in his home, and amongst his own friends, has in-
dicated that nobody has noted any particular dif-
ficulty.”

AFTER HIS DISCHARGE from the Hospital, the peti

tioner was required to surrender his gun and was assigned
to limited duty status.

IN DUE COURSE, he underwent a departmental trial on
the charges of misconduct and was fully exonerated. He re-
sumed his limited duty status.

A YEAR LATER, an Honorary Consultant Psychiatrist,
examined him. He diagnosed his condition as “Emotional
Immaturity - persisting.” He was then told not to report for

| duty. A medical board certified his disability to the Police

Pension Fund.

‘THE OFFICER SOUGHT judicial relief. In support of his
petition, he submitted the favorable reports of two psychi-
atrists, both of whom recommended his restoration to duty;

ALSO HIS ATTORNEY referred to two higher Court cases
which apparently help his contentions. In one of these cases, Py
the Second Department directed reinstatement of an em-
ployee who was concededly unable to perform the full duties
of his position following a physical injury. The Court held
in view of his unblemished record of 14 years that his
removal was harsh and illegal.

THE OTHER PRECEDENT involved a teacher whose
forced retirement by the Board of Education for psychiatric
reasons was ordered reconsidered by the First Department. A
Board psychologist found her too ill to perform her duties,
On the other hand, a Board psychiatrist reported she was in
good health, but that if she were forced to retire there would
be created “a tremendous void" which might lead to “a
paranoid defense system.”

STILL, SPECIAL Term, Part I, refused to grant relief’

| because of the medical reports of Bellevwe Hospital and of

the Honorary Consultant psychiatrist, Consequently, the peti-
tioner, in the prime of life and with full capability to do
good work, was forced into retirement for “disability.”

civil service.

State employees have other
goals beside » pay raise, mostly in
the fields of retirement and im-
proved use of leave and siok time
benefita, New York City employ-
ees need Legislature approval of
several bills, too, and they have
strong hopes that this ie the year
that will see some long cherished
legislation enacted into law.

Both thé Uniformed Firemen’s
Association and the Patrolmen's
Benevolent Association want a

, Vested interest in thelr respective
pension systems, Since State om-
ployees now have the right to leave
service and etill keep their pen-
| sion interests, st ts felt enough leg-
islators feel this ts sufficient pre-
cedent to grant the privilege to
other public employee groups,

Firemen are particularly inter-
ested in elimination of the so-
called “Death Gamble” from their
retirement system and prospects
are good that they will win the
needed legislation this year. Both
the State and the Teachers’ Re-

| tirement Systems have eliminated

the “Death Gamble.”

acceptable — and workable — to
both sides,

In essence, there is a growing
feeling in Albany that the best
way to keep employees happy 4s
to search out and remove the
| cause of their unhappiness, large-
ly through improved grievance
machinery, wider range of im-
proved working conditions and
steadily-improved pensions. This
| attitude is bound to produce a
good year for the civil service dur-

It had happened on two prior New Year's Eves—only

The New York Telephone Company had two repre-

“Check {t out, quick,” he ordered. Seconds later, the’
public address system blared out: “Attention, all telephone
operators, the rumor that the State Island Ferrys and the
Green Bus Lines are on strike have been discounted. There
is no truth to any of these rumors!”

Issuing order to subordinates and getting them carri
out quickly is nothing new to Novis. As a Lt. Colonel dur-
ing World War II, he served as commanding officer of Fort
Wadsworth which was responsible for the security and oper-
ations of the Port of New York.

The center was visited daily by Mayor Lindsay and by®
Dr. Timothy Costello, the deputy mayor-City Administrator.

Dr. Costello, in speaking of the work of the employees
in the center, was quick to reduce his own role in the oper-
ations. Modestly, he told The Leader: “You must talk to the
employees involved. Certainly, it would not have been pos-
sible for the City to have survived the 12-day transit strike
without the hard work of the 500 dedicated civil service
employeees in the control center. Many of these men and
women worked a full day in their own departments and
then took tour of duty in the control center,”

As deputy chairman, Dr. Costello had placed the full
resources of the City Administrator's office at the disposal
of the center. :

Every City department were represented in the control
center. Some only had two men assigned to the task of
maintaining liaison. Others like the Transit Authority
had as many as 200. TA personnel were assigned as tele-
phone information clerks because of their keen knowledge
of transportation. They gave from their own knowl-
edge, fast advise on alternate means of travel to those
seeking information through the citywide telephone number
999-1234, This number gave out recorded information with
a second number for those with specific problems, not cov-
ered by the recorded message.

There were a few other men like Novis—departmental
directors who had not left the center since the emergency
started New Year's Eve.

These were men like Captain Joe Reilly of the Fire
Emergency Division. He coordinates the work of the 18 men
who staffed the Fire Department office there around the
clock, He had little chance to make use of the brown
army cot in the corner of his office, The slightest difficulty
in responding to a fire by any of the 500 pieces of apparatus
in the city was reported to his office. This in turn, reported
to Fire Commissioner Lowery, Chief of Department John
O'Hagan and Deputy Commissioner Raymond Nolan for
action. It was because of this information that on one
day the Commissioner ordered firemen in two Man-
hattan divisions to remain for several hours past their
6 p.m. quitting time to provide extra manpower on fire
engines, Had any companies been unable to respond to a
fire because of traffic blockages, the firemen were prepared
to carry their equipment and run to the scene of the fire.

-

»

These were men also, like Joe Kilkenny, chief schedule
maker for the TA. He supervised the TA's 200 employees
who handled the telephones, He noted that the peak was
reached on the first Tuesday afternoon when 4,700 calls came
into the center In one hour, These ranged from all sorts of
questions short of advice to the lovelorn, Kilkenny, also
showed signs of fatigue but was quick to move if any prob-
lems developed,

The center had been used during the recent power
failure which hit the entire Northeast, But the problems
then had been a lot less for Carmin Novis and his emergency
crew.

With the strike over, Novis went back to his desk
in the City Admiinstrator’s office; Kilkenny returned to
making schedules for the TA and Joe Reilly continued
with his training of civil defense auxiliary firemen, The
other civil service employees down in the bleak dungeons
containing the emergency control center also returned
to their jobs in light, airy offices to do their share in
keeping the city running normally.

But they will be ready to return to the center, when
and if the occasion arises—and it will, because New York
City is a elty of problems, But there are thousands of
Carmin Novises, Joe Kilkennys and Joe Reillys ready to pro-
tect the eight million New Yorkers when trouble comes,

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

CSEA Urges That Queens

County Court

Be Put Back On State Roll

Reporters

ALBANY — The Civil Service Employees Assn. has urged
that Supreme Court reporters in the 11th Judicial District
(Queens County) be placed back on the State payroll in order
to correct salary and other inequities they have been sub-

Jected to since they were invol-
untarily transferred to the New
York City payroll several years
ago.

The payroll transfer took place
in 1962 when the County of
Queens was separated from the
10th Judicial District and desig-
nated the 11th district, under
the Court Reorganization Act.

Tn calling for the action, CSEA
president Joseph F. Feily, told the
administrator of the State Judicial
Conference, Thomas F. McCoy,
that, despite assurance at the
time of the transfer that their
rights and benefits would not be
impaired in any way, the court
reporters had been denied salary
increases that their former col-
Teaques in the 10th District have
received, and have been incon-
venienced in other ways.

For instance, Feily noted, the
affected employees are now re-
quired to make direct payments
to the State Retirement System,
covering contributions and loan
repayment, and to the Association
and an insurance company for
items that were formerly routine
payroll deductions,

Feily pointed out that various
Jaws enacted in 1962 guaranteed
the employees that their rights,

Feily urged that the Judicial
Conference take immediate rem-
edial action “to correct this in-
justice to the Supreme Court re-
porters of the 11th Judicial Dis-

As a result, T. Norman Hurd,
director of the budget, told the
Employees Association that his
office “has approved six positions
of food service worker for the
cottages at West Seneca, with the
understanding that if experience
indicates this number to be insuf-
ficient, additional positions will be
considered.”

In addition, Dr. Hurd told
CSEA, “to further improve the
situation. two supervising attend-
ant items have been approved for
the eight cottages,”

“It is expected,” he said, “that
these new positions will enable
|the ward service attendants to,
