on the case will provide the final
answer, Following is a review of
the case and the opinions handed
down by Justice MacAffer,
‘The State Supreme Court up-
held the Assoctation’s contentions
that not only was the retroactive
provision illegal, but the whole
effort to downgrade Mrs. Hotaling

situated was nul} and void be-

‘The State's excuse for its at-
tempted selective downgrading
was that statutory seniority con-

downgrading eventy to all in the

Mrs. Hotaling’s Position
| Mra, Hotaling was a permanent
principal statistics clerk in the
Department of Agriculture and
Markets for many years prior to
April 1, 1954.
Under Chapter 307 of the Laws
of 1954 the State was directed to
reallocate and reclassify to the
new salary grades established by
| that chapter, all existing positions.

was informed that her position
was classified downward from

Justice MacAffer's opinion
“The petitioner makes two basic
contentions: (a) that the retro-
active aspect of the petitioner's
downward reclassification was uns
constitutional and (bi that the
| downward reclassification of peti-
tloner's position was tlegal and
void,
| "The first of these basic con-
tentions the court has heretofore

in that decision sald...
“As far as salary was con-
cerned, the effective date was
April 1, 1054, Likewise it would
therefore appear that the peti-
toner held the position of prin-
cipal statistics clerk until Sep-
tember 30, 1954, and that she
| therefore is entitled to receive the
compensation provided for the
position effective as of April 1
1954, although the salary was not
fully payable until after October
1, 1954. (Chapter 308 of the Laws
of 1954),"
“This court reaffirms such de-
termination here,
“This court also concludes that
the incumbent of any position
whose situation was similar to
that of the petitioner was en-
titled to be compensated in the
same manner and to the same
extent as has been held herein.
“While no statistics have been
presented to this court aa to the
number of reclassifications. which
took place, it ts apparent that
there was no general reclassifica-
tion and that certain positions
were excluded from such action,
regardless of whether such posi-
tions should have been reclassi-
fied. The result of the reclassifi-
cation was that only the position
of the petitioner and of those
similarly situated were reclassified.
The defendants did not carry out
the revision of the position and
allocation of the salaries as di-
rected by the provisions contained
in Chapter 307 of the Laws of
1954
"This
court, therefore, must
reach the inevitable conclusion
that the reolassification of the
position of the petitioner and the
positions of those similarly situ-
ated, regardless of whether the
positions were or were not pre-
viously ‘earmarked,’ wagarbitrary,
capricious, discriminatory and
therefore unlawful.”

Letters to the Editor
What Interests Public Employees Most
Editor, The Leader;
The main fnterest of public employees, Federal, state or local
government, Is pay.
Federal employees evidently are to get a raise, Already a pay
increase for the military forces has been voted, Strong sentiment for
an increase for classified employees, judiciary employees and legis-
lative employees is found in Congress, and this year President Bisen=
hower himself is lending his support. Last year he vetoed a pay-
increase bill on the supposed ground that it would be inflationary,
showing that he was then more interested in something other than
the welfare of Federal employees.
Stnte employees got no raise this year, although Governor Harrl-
man did his best to get one for them. The Legislature, through its
Republican majority, turned thumbs down,
Nor did New York City employees get a raise, but instead an
appeal to go along with an austerity budget that might be of some
good to somebody else but certainly not to them. Naturally they
refused,

Action Requested
City employees, in fact, all public employees, should be granted,
through thelr organizations, a memorandum of understanding, signed
by the employer (and of course by their representatives) embodying
such terms as are agreed upon, They should be given a voice in the
preparation of the annual expense budget on subjects, like pay, that
directly affect them as employees. As it Is, they are confronted with
an accomplished fact, The day set aside for a budget hearing for
city employees is a waste of time, Budget hearings, in the face of
predetermination, are a farce, anyway. What changes have ever
of Estimate at such hearings? Who can be sure that the Board
been made as the result of anything said or submitted to the Board
members actually listen to what is said—though of course they hear
it—or read any briefs that are submitted? If the hearings are a fleld
day for anybody, in reality they're a feld day for the Budget Director,
the Board's adviser on such annual appropriqsions,
There is no doubt in what direction employee interest lies, any
more than there {s any doubt that the attitude of government
toward its employees, in all branches and units, can be materially
improved, if only officials would do more than even listen. When
confronted with an overwhelming argument they should take heed.
But maybe this is asking too much.
HOLGART P, EDWARDS
ers in private industry to obtain the prevailing local rate
for the same work performed in the same title.
A House subcommittee held a hearing at which
Social Security Questions Answered
agencies protested that they could see no possibility of
processing the wage board adjustments any faster, Even
some agencies that had promised to do all they could
reported that they saw no way of doing anything. That's
not strange. Public officials can always discover the im-
possibility of doing what they don’t really want to do.
They'd better change their course, President Eisenhower
has asked his appointees to try. Who are they to say no?
Mandatory Law Proposed
A bill is being considered by the subcommittee that
would put the heat on reluctant officials, It would provide
that wage adjustments would take effect automatically
80 working days after the start of a pay survey, Then |
tardy officials would have their choice of compliance or |
answering to the President and Congress for their viola-|
tion of law should such a law be enacted. There’s small
likelihood it would be, since the President's advisers say
he would veto such a bill, but at least officials who are
dragging their feet can see that Congress is not averse
to aftempting intimidation.
A problem naturally will arise concerning the money |
with which to pay the cost of any Increases, One reason |
for delaying the effective date of raises is to save money
at the employees’ expense, while another is the absence
of any appropriation. Mr. Siciliano proposes that the
Budget Bureau permit agencies to estimate the expected
raise increases, Thus the money would be appropriated |
in advance, Also, a two-year-old law allows agencies)
to effectuate 1 at once and ask for the appropriation
later, but there is no enthusiasm among the agencies, or
in“the White House either, for this method. The pre-
appropriation plan would meet the objections,
The Struggle Never Ends
The struggle by public employees to obtain adequate
wages is never-ending, and the effort for promptness is
soncurrent, in Federal, state and local jurisdictions. Gov-

_School Gaze sink
Harry DeGroff, president of the Hicksville, L, 1, Non-Teaching
Unit of Nassau chapter, CSHA, announces many gainy for members
of his unit, He says that through the cooperation of Richard Cairns,
superintendent of buildings, and the Board of Education, the non-
teaching employers will receive pay raises and other fringe benefits
in the 1958-1959 budget. Mr. DeGroif further states that the clerical
staff and the office personnel are about to Join up with the Hicksville
Non-Teaching Unit. This unit will then be the largest non-teaching
unit in Nassau chapter, All this is further proof that non-teaching
employces in school districts have much to gain through membership
in Nassau chapter.
Rockville Center School District Non-Teaching Personnel have
formed thelr own unit In Nassau chapter. With the help of Nassau
chapter they have set up a program for the non-teaching employees
and presented this program to the School Board. It includes the
40-hour work week and many other benefits which have been over-
looked by officials in past years. The members of the Rockville Center
Non-Teaching Unit are yery hopeful that the Schoo! Board will give
Proper consideration to thelr requests and In the near future put
them into effect,
Through the efforts of the Syosset School District Unit and the
cooperation of a farsighted School Board and the Administration,
the members in this unit have been given a new pay schedule with
Increases to all employees and some other fringe benefits in addition.
Nassau cliapter has found through experience what many school
boards have similarly found—that happy and contented employees
give the best and highest type of service and thot this ts not true
of underpaid and demoralized employees.
On Saturday, May 10, the Non-Teaching Section of Nassau
chapter mot at the Hempstead Elks Club to set up a program for the
new schoo! year for all non-teaching employees in the school dis-
tricts in Nassau county. Represented at this meeting were members
Of over 40 of the 83 school districta in Nassau county, Of the
over 4.000 non-teaching employees In Naxsau county, Nassau chapter
boasts of almost 1,000 of them as members, although the Non-Teach-
ing Section of Nassau chapter was becun only two years ago, There
& great need for an organization of this type for all non-teaching
employees in New York State, Edward Perrott, chairman of the Non-
Tenching Section acted as chairman at the meeting and Irving Flau-
menbaum, president of Naasau chapter addressed those present, A
Question and answer period followed.
Through the organization of this Non-Teaching Section, tt is
hopeful that employee benefits wil! eventually be the same in all
school districts and these benefits will constantly be studied in line
with existing conditions. Nassau chapter, through Mr. Perrott and
ite president, Irving Flaumenbaum, ls now making a survey of all
positions in all school districts and will have a study made of this
information in order that a good solld program can be established.
If there mre any questfons regarding non-teaching school per-
sonnel, « card to the “School Gaze" column will bring an early answer.

“Sleeping Beauty” ts fixed up so
she “breathes.” It's really weird,
So is the Chamber of Horrors,

the instruments of murder,
Today was our last chance for
Sightseeing, We drove 21 miles to
Windsor Castle, which is on a
hill overlooking the Thames, One
of the most magnificent royal
residences in the world, Windsor
Castle has a priceless collection
of paintings, tapestries, armor,
china, and furniture and has been
the home of the English monarch
for almost 90 years. Queen Eliza-
both was staying there that day,
We saw her flag raised over the
royal apartments signifying her
Presence. We had noticed yeater-
day that she was not a) Buck-
ingham Palace.
No Ghosts
On our way back to London, we
stopped at Hampton Court with
{ts elaborate gardens and lavish
palace, the ife-long dream of the
butcher's son who became Cardin-

Royal Palace. Now, however, it
Serves as a residence for distin-
@uished servants of the crown, All
that's left of horrible Henry are
the ghosts of Anne Boleyn and
Catherine Howard, which are sald
to appear, Unfortunately, we
missed them.
Certainly there ts a Jot in and
around London which wa didn’t
get to see, but we did crowd a lot
into two days. Having a private
coach and guide, and a well~
planned itingrary made it possible.
Hope we can come back again
some day.
One of the representatives of
the travel agency in London will
travel with us for the rest of the
trip and make all arrangements
for uf He seems very nice and
extremely helpful. I know he will
be a welcome addition to our
group, His name js Simon Carter
and he ls English,
Right now Simon Is busy check-
ing our luggage on to the boat~
train which will leave shortly to
take Us to Harwich where we will
take an overnight steamer to the
Hook of Holland. We will have

‘TEACHER'S SUIT PROTESTS UNEXCUSED ABSENCE
Nettie Becktr, a regular substi-
tute teacher and a member of the
Teachers Union, has filed a pro-
ceeding against the Board of Ed-
ication before the State Com-
missioner of Education, protesting
the refusal of the Bourd to ac-
cept her application for excuse of
absence. Mrs, Becker was absent
last May 7 because of illness. The
Board would not accept the ap-
plication because of Section 106
of its bylaws, amended as of May
1, which makes distinctions be-
tween regular substitute teachers
and regular teachers.
‘Mrs. Becker, through her attor~
neys, Zelman and Zelman, seeks
an order declaring the bylaw null
and vold as an attempt to avold
the decisions of the Commissioner
of Education forbidding discrim-
ination between regular teachers
and regular substitute teachers
on payment for absence.
