[ Don’t Repeat This! |
(Continued from Pi 1)
GOP figures will be placing their
major campaign efforts for 1964
Senator Keating, of course, Ws
out for re-election and the GO!
throughout the State is out to get
him elected. The biggest concen-
tration of Republican power and
money will be directed at local
elections, however, including Con-
gressional races,
Major Goal
In the over all picture, the first
wim of the GOP is to get its
semblymen and senators re-elect-
€d to the State Legislature and to
inerease Republican margins
there, if possible. Republican
“pros” are fully aware that this
task is made more difficult when
there are defections in the ranks
—and among the pros, them
—from the Presidential candidate
heading their ticket, Expect
therefore, that there will be strong
emphasis on local rather than na-
tional issues.
As of now, the GOP majority in
the Senate is eight seats and 20
seats in the Assembly, Two danger
spots—Monroe and Erie Counties
—could reduce the Senate majori-
ty severely and upsets in other
areas could erase it entirely, Sen-
ate Majority Leader Wa J
Mahoney has always been a strong
vote-getter in Erie but this year he
is faced with intra-party troubles
in addition to growing Democra-
tie strength. In Monroe, the GOP
has lost power in the City of
Rochester but still has a strong
grip on the county, Local observers
feel Monroe's Republican legisia-
tors will go back to Albany again
selves
but that the races will be close. |
Out in Nassau County, Demo-
cratic county chairman Jack Eng-
lish is now recognized as one of
the most astute minds in the po-
Hitieal Held and his skillful tactics
will be giving Republicans there a
lot of trouble, Assembly Spegker
Joseph F. Carlino, a first rate
“pro,” himself, is expected to keep
the field intact for the GOP, how-
ever.
Westchester will remain a Re-
publican fortress in general, but
Democrats there under the leader-
ship of Bill Luddy continue to
make gains on the town level and

this is a worry to some GOP pros.
A bigger worry is & private GOP
survey that indicates strong de-

Hope For Split Voting

ean leadership hopes that those

but are planning to vote for Presi-

The GOP js looking at 1966 as
well as 1964, Legislative reappor-

The contracting out may well
force the shutdown of many naval

Gviner, ultimately destroy the
Navy's ability “to maintain its

eventuality at all times."

At Mather Air Force Base,
Griner said, contracting to private
concerns cost the government
more than five times as much as
it would have had Federal em-
ployees done the job. Government
aides did work at White Sands
Missile Base for $28; when con-
Wwacted out, the work cost $78.

It was @ good week for pay

week was one calling for higher

The Civil Service Commission

An Illegal Court
growing anger among State employees over a series of
salary classification appeal vetoes by the State Director
of the Budget exploded into a sharp protest to Governor
Rockefeller last week. This explosion is not only a reflection
of frustrated workers but the concern and anxiety of the
Civil Service Employees Assn. that the whole process of order-
ly salary appeals has broken down in the State.
Paul Kyer,
Arthur B,
TUESDAY, Al
The Employees Association originated numerous appeals
for reclassification with the Director of Classification and
Compensation. These included Correction Officers, Forest
Rangers, several titles within the Division of Employment,
Park Patrolmen and many others, The appeals were denied.
‘They were then taken to the Civil Service Commission, They
were approved. They were then sent to the Budget Director,
‘They were disapproved.
Use of the office of the Budget Director as a “court of
last resort” is the major cause of frustration and anger.
There is no precedent for creating such an illegal tribunal
and, even worse, it removes the functions of the Civil Service
Department in a vital area, where judgement of these matters
is made by qualified practitioners, to the political arena of
administrative fiscal concerns.
This whole matter might not have reached the 100 mega-
ton level last week were it not for two particularly inept ac-
tions—the constant refusal to give any reasons for these
vetoes and the rejection of the Division of Employment ap-
peals when it is known that Federal, not State, funds are
concerned,
The CSEA did not beat around the bush in asking for
action by the Governor to restore orderly personnel practices
in the area of salary upgrading reviews, Joseph F. Feily,
CSEA president, told Mr, Rockefeller that it was obvious most
of the appeals were turned down because of budgetary rea-
sons, which Is a denial of justice to State workers, and as a
device to support the initial judgements of the Director of
Classification and Compensation, which robs employees of
the American right of unpredjudiced appeal.
It should be noted that the vetoes were a direct rejection
of the judgements of the State Civil Service Commission,
There can be no doubt that the resolution of this terrible
situation lies in the hands of Governor Rockefeller. The CSEA
has asked for the immediate formation of a committee com-| |
posed of State officials and CSEA representatives to restore
the process of judicial appeal machinery.
Employee reaction throughout the State is at fever pitch,
The only way to get these temperatures down is a dose of|
immediate reaction on the part of Governor Rockefeller to

Letters To The Editor
Says Rangers Suffer
‘Gross Injustice’
Box 101;
New York State claims to be a
progressive state. It boasts of its
civil service program and the many
benefits to its state employees. Yet
everyone seems to have forgotten
the Conservation Department's
Forest Rangers. They are expected
to be available seven days » week
and twenty four hours a day dur-
ing the spring, summer, and au-
tumn fire seasons. There are no
provisions made for relief of the
Ranger force; in fact, they have
even been deprived of extra pay
or compensatory time for the
many hours of overtime that they
put In beyond the normal forty
hour week. Even state holidays
falling during the fire seasons and
allowed to all state employees are
not permissable to the Rangers
baie must stand by for fire calls
without compensatory time or any
additional pay!
When the Rangers asked for an
increase in salary recently, they
were turned down, Can anyone
dare to say that they do not de-
serve this increase, already given
to other branches of Conservation
Department personnel?
No other field in private indus-
try would be allowed to make men
work for nothing In payment for
their overtime! No industry could
pay so little for hazardous work
such as this! The situation te
unique among ¢ivil service person-
nel. Neither firemen nor law en-
forcement officials are expected
to sacrifice their very freedom for
their jobs, Tt ts a gross injustice,
and it must be corrected for the
welfare of these dedicated men as
well as to remove this injustice
from the proud heritage of our
progressive state.
This branch of the conservation
force must be overhauled with the
demands on the lives of these men
being reduced, and equitable com-
pensation for their work being re-
turned to them, The protection of
our forest lands and the happiness
of our people are at stake!

Your Public
Relations IQ
By LEO J. MARGOLIN
Mr. Margolin is Head of the Division of Business Admin«
istration and Professor of Business Administration at the
Borough of Manhattan Community College and Adjunct Pro-
fessor of Public Relations in New York University’s Gradu-
ate School of Public Administration,
Civil Service At Its Best
»» A MAJOR contribution to the good public relations of
government is the impressive series of achievements by the
civil servants of the nation’s naval shipyards,
THESE MEN are the highly skilled American artisans,
who have been welded into the best shipbuilding and ship
maintenance team in the world.
NO MARITIME nation in the world can match these
American civil servants in constructing and repairing naval
vessels better or faster, What's more, the ships they build,
stay built and the vessels they repair, stay repaired.
AN OUTSTANDING example among these government
shipyards is the Brooklyn Navy Yard, more formally known
as The New York Naval Shipyard in Brooklyn, With a 163-
year history behind it, this naval establishment built many
of America’s most famous warships, including the battleships
Missouri, Iowa, North Carolina and the aircraft carrier
Franklin D. Roosevelt, all of World II fame,
ALTOGETHER the Brooklyn Navy Yard built 72 ships
during World War Il. These ships were fashioned with the
hands and specialized know-how of civil service workers.
TO DEVELOP this army of expert technicians was not
accomplished by the wave of a magic wand. It was achieved
through the honing and sharpening of the basic skills by
advanced training, as well as long experience,
FOR EXAMPLE, the average age of the skilled worker
at the Brooklyn Navy Yard is 46, and the chances are he’s
& 10- to 20-year man, Management surveys by both the gov=
ernment and outside agencies have praised the quality of
this worker and his work,
IN FACT, the Brooklyn Navy Yard worker is the proven
example of the U.S. Civil Service Commission's hiring policy
which can best be summed up by the title of a recent “Civil
Service Journal” article; “The Quality Recruit—Today's Best
Bargain.”
YET WITH ALL these “pluses” going for the nation’s de-
fense, someone inside Washington's Pentagon labyrinth is
lousing up the good public relations won for government by
these superb civil servants.
IT IS BEING done by starving the Brooklyn Navy Yard
and the nine other naval shipyards on Continental United
States, Instead, most naval construction is going to private
shipyards “because it's cheaper,”
WELL, we wonder if it is cheaper. Or !s another agency
of the U.S. Government, the Treasury Department, really
picking up the “cheaper costs” by the Internal Revenue Serv-
ice’s new faster write-offs and the seven percent investment
credit for corporations?
WHAT REALLY disturbs us is that a crackerjack ship-
building and repair team is being scattered to the four winds
to the detriment of the nation’s ability to defend itself in
case of war, Teams such as are found in the Brooklyn Navy
Yard are not ground out by vending machines. Hard work,
top loyalty, patriotism, and impeccable workmanship make
these teams.
REPS, EMANUEL CELLAR and Hugh L, Carey of Brook-
lyn, Sens, Kenneth Keating and Jacob Javits and other mem-
bers of Congress have been trying to get the Federal ship-
yards their proper share of U.S, Navy work—but they can
use & strong assist,
ONE OF OUR columns in the dim distant past discussed
how cities or counties, no matter how far apart geographi~-
cally, can unite when they have a common problem, Now
ts the time to use that public relations technique to save the
good publie relations of government,
THE NEXT STEP should be Seattle, Charleston, Phila-
delphia, Portsmouth, N.H,, Boston, Long Beach and San
Prancisco,—locations of the other shipyards—joining with
New York to get their naval shipyards off @ starvation menu,

“This matter was appealed,
Pursuant to Section 120 of the
Civii Service Law, to the State
Civil Service Commission. The
Law provides, ‘The Commission
shall examine and review such
appeal and make such changes in
classification or allocation as may
be just and equitable. Determina-
tiovs of the Commission shall be
transmitted to the Director of the
Budget, the Director of the Classi-
fication and Compensation Divi-
sion, and the employees and de-
partment heads affected thereby,’
“Pursuant to this law, the full
Commission heard the appeal and
rendered an opinion denying the
appeal. The employees thereafter
refiled their application to the
Director of Classification and
Compensation who again denied
the sppeal, and once again this
matter was brought on for a hear-
ing before the full Commission.
The Commission, on June 24,
1964, found in favor of the appel-
Jants and granted in all the titles
an upward reallocation of two
grades, Before the higher
salaries could be implemented, the
approval of the Budget Director
was required.
“On Priday, August 14, 1964
the employees and this Assn
earned to thelr dismay that the
Budget Director, almost four years
after the original petition had|
been filed, denied the appeal and |
refused the necessary approval
for the new salaries.
Repeated Denial

the past few years by similar |
denials for the positions of Cor-

Unrough your own Budget Director
within the Executive Department.
Parenthetically, no other Budget
Director within the history of this
State has received any more open
demonstration of the confidence
of the public employees than has
your Director, Dr. T. Norman
Hurd, This does not mean, however,
that we can accept the ocon-
tinued review by him of salary
appeals which he rejects out of
hand for reasons that we cannot
know or he will not state, This
practice represents the total ab-
sence of administrative orderlt-
ness and the complete absence
of political responsibility in the
appropriate place, and we insist
that a solution should and must
be found.
“We submit that there are sev-
eral alternatives available to your
present procedure. We believe that
the Budget Director should be
taken out of this ploture alto-
gether unless a manifest case of
budgetary insufficiency of funds
can be demonstrated. Here no
such showing by the Director can
possibly be made, particularly in
view of the fact that your own
budget has always contained a
sufficient appropriation for sal-
ary reclassifications which has
never been even partially utilised,
“We submit that the Budget
Director has not been functioning
in the area of protecting the
State Treasury but rather that
he has been functioning to sus-

Accident Took Many Lives
The accident took place on the
Long Island Rail Road on Feb. 20
1950, at Rockville Centre and it
claimed the lives of scores of
people. Flaumenbaum, then work-
ing as & pharmacist in Queens,
was aboard that train, He got
out with broken legs and the need
to take a new job where he could
ait at a desk rather than stand
at his work, He found that job
as a pharmacist with the Nassau
County Welfare Department.
The Climb Up
That was almost 15 years ago
and it was also the beginning of
Fiaumenbaum's career as a CSEA
leader. He first became active in
the Welfare Employees Assi.
whieh he reorganized, serving as
its president for seven years, He
became president of the Nassau
chapter in 1955 when the chapter
membership stood at 500 and the
treasury stood at $500,
During the last nine years the
chapter membership has grown
to 8,709 and the annual budget
to $20,000, He attributes his vast
increase in membership to “one,
hard work: two the payroll de-
duction of dues; and three, the

MINEOLA, Aug, 24—If It ts true, as a philosopher once said, that more things ta

changed the life of Chapter President Irving Flaumenbaum,
IRVING FLAUMENBAUM
points out, “in 1961, before we had
payroll deduction we had the
membership up to 3,500 and that
was all collected by hand.”

old and whose trademark is a

hie main achievement during his
service with the Nassau chapter
has been “the improvement ta
