Leading the battle in their
own behalf will be Federal em-
ployees in all classifications, ex-
ecutive, administrative, profes-
sional, clerical, blue-collar work-
ers, postal employees, and those
in the military services. The re-
sults of their lobbying efforts
will have ramifications that will
have widespread effect on all
public employment, including
that at state and local levels.
‘The Nixon Administration ts
following the same tack taken
earller this year in the State by
the Rockefeller Administration,
in the City by the Lindsay Ad-
ministration, and by other local
county, town and village govern-
ments, Thelr general approach
to difficulties in balancing bud-
gets is to denigrate loyal and
dedicated civil service employees
to the level of thelr most dis-
pensable and disposable assets.
As & consequence, the Rockefeller
Administration sought to impose
drastic and stringent employee
firings that threatened vital
public services, until the Civil
Service Employees Assn. suc-
ceeded in moderating the most
inequitable phases of the Rocke-
feller Administration program.
Only last minute increases in
City revenues saved the jobs of
thousands of employees whose
livelihoods and careers were
threatened by a Lindsay Admin-
istration economy axe.
Harsh Discrimination
The Nixon Administration ap-
proach to its civil service em-
ployees {s 80 palpably discrim-
inatory as to make it immoral.
Salaries and wages of all em-
ployees, according to a decree of
the Nixon Administration, are
frozen for a period of 90 days
ending Nov. 13. However, with
respect to Federal employees, a
nix percent wage increase sched-
uled to take effect on Jan. 1,
has been deferred to July
1, 1972, In addition, the Nixon
Administration will reduce Fed-
eral employment by 100,000,
hopefully by attrition but by fir-
ing if necessary..What is espe-
clally unconscionable about de-
ferring for six months the Fed-
eral salary increase Is that the
increase was recommended, after
peat This!
peat study by @ special
commission, as an essential first
step towards bringing public em-
ployee salaries to parity with
salary and wage seales prevall-
ing in the private sector.
The challenge to the Nixon
Administration policy of making
public employees the scapegoats
of Its past failures to put an end
to the twin economic evils of
rising cosis and mounting un-
employment will center about a
Resolution proposed by Rep.
Jerome D. Waldie (D. Cal.) that
would reschedule to Jan, 1, 1972,
the agreed upon program for
salary increases for Federal em-
ployees. First action on the
Waldie Resolution will be taken
by the House Committee on Post
Office and Civil Service.
Rep. Thaddeus J. Dulsk!, of
Buffalo, is chairman of that
committee, and he has earned
8 solid reputation among civil
service employees throughout the
Nation and the State for his
dedicated interest tn advancing
and improving the status of
public employment. Federal em-
ployee spokesmen are confident
that the Waldie Resolution will
pass through its first legislative
obstacle by receiving Committee
approval, These spokesmen are,
in fact, hopeful that they will
succeed right down the line and
put an end to theory that the
way t© increase employment is
to eliminate 100,000 Federal jobs.

“any purported newly-clected

This order was granted upon

by Joseph S. Rosenthal to set

Counties Hear Explanation Of Taylor Law
The flurry of questions raised by new changes In the
Taylor Law, particularly those concerning representation
and negotiation of contracts, assumed the spotlight at the
meeting last week of the County Division, Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn.
Given special scrutiny were
such controversial areas as who
falls within the newly estab-
Mshed confidential/management
unit; how ts their status determ-
ined; how’ does the new form-
ula of dates affect the “unchal-
lenged representation” period;
by what means can a govern-
ment's solvency limits be recon-
celled with the legitimate de-
mands of public employees; what
are the new procedures for hear-
ings on improper practices and
earges of “provocation” brought
in the aftermath of a strike.
Providing clarifications were
two top officials of the State's

PERB's chairman, and Jerry

introduced the speakers.
fairs,
He took the occasion to observe
that during the last four years,
since the Taylor Law's incep-
tlon, 400 disputes have been re-
solved
At The Crossroads
‘This taught us a lesson in
rising and meeting the needs of
public employees. The Taylor
Law placed us at the cross-
roads,” he noted, adding that
both sides were inexperienced
in the conduct of negotiations
when the law began, but they
learned quickly to work within
its framework
Helsby provided a broad out~
line of the role of PERB, leav-
ing to his counsel, Lefkowitz,
the job of filling in the intricate
detatls of the newest State legis~
lation
‘The PERB chairman said that

“New York State has chosen
Mo iatter course; we have con-
fronted the issues and seen that
all public employees are cover-
firemen by par-
to enact a full-
ed and protected by one law.”
He estimated that about one
million civil servants have had
thelr rights affirmed under Tay-
lor.
The Taylor Law covers al
most all bases, he asserted, men-
tioning the employee rights
specifically guaranteed: to ne-
gotiate; to organize; to be rep-
resented; to cope with impasses
and improper practices in the
negotiation process
Vast Impact
ting that roughly 900,000
servants In the State havé
anized by varying em-
ployee organizations, Helsby said
some 6,000 pacts haye been
reached under Taylor's provi-
sions, “with only one represen-
tation strike
A primary focal point of PERB
activities these days, according
to Helsby, 1s the designation of
the “most appropriate unit” for
the diversity of public employ-
ees occupations
He went on to predict that
the question of breaking an im-
passe would occupy center stage
in labor relations in the years
ahead, The key objective would
be to try to get disputes set-
tled without resort to a strike.
Besides strike action, Helsby
pointed to two alternatives:
third-party arbitration and Tay-
lor Law procedures. The arbi-
tration process “is not looked
on with great favor by either
side” and, in fact, preceded the
well-publicized Montreal police
strike since the policemen re-
Jected the terms of the Arbitrat-
or as unfair.
Helsby went on to cite a re-
cent resolution by the Uniform-
ed Firefighters Assn. which
would limit the arbitrator to
three positions only: the final
stands of the employee and the
employer bargaining teams and
the conclusion reached by the
fact-finder. Such a proposal
might prove feasible, Helsby sald
In turning the program over
to PERB counsel Lefkowitz,
Helsby remarked that the "om-

Legislature represents a reflec-
on on the changing world of
labor relations and an effort to
gain a fair balance between ben-
efits to government and ben-
efits to the employees tn the
settlement of issues
Seek Major Changes
Lefkowitz explained that one
of the major changes under
Chapter 503 involves the budget
submission date no longer be-
ing a reference point for pur-
poses of recognition and certi-
fication as bargaining agent
The end of the fiscal year will
now be used, to standardize the
procedure. Also, a new one-
month time limit will be invoked
for mediation and fact-finding
Under the old law, an elght-
month minimum of unchallenged
representation status existed. The
new provisions state that the in-
cumbent unton ts given protec-
tion from challenge for only a
single contract, up to three years
At the end of that period, a rep-
resentation challenge may be
made and a new election held
This compromise, he said, takes
into account “both the desire
for stability and enhanced dem-
ocracy” for the employees rep-
resented.
ssociation
Who's “Management”?
Chapter 4, 5 and 16 are the
controversial portions, dealing
with management and confiden-
tial employees. Persons so desig~
nated will be forbidden to join
employees organizations or to
be represented by them in nego-
tiations.
The issue ts sure to be litigated
on @ title-by-title basis, suggest-
ed Lefkowitz, stressing the pro-
viso that no employ may take
the individual action of exclu-
sion. “Only PERB or one of the
mini-PERBS may do so, and
after an unchallenged repre-
sentation perlod {s over,” the
counsel emphasized
The Legislature has also al-
tered the laws so that elections
cannot be stayed arbitrarily,
to give the challenging union
more time to garner votes when
they feel their position is weak.
He pointed to the ruse of the
Teamster challenge to C83EA is
Babylon, where after forestall-
ing the vote several times, the
Teamsters were beaten anyway.

for Wednesday, Sept. 15.
Under improper practice pro-

slowed things down consider-
ably, often deliberately
Lefkowitz said that the new
rules allow the matter to be
taken swiftly to the highest
court, thus getting the matter
adjudicated with a minimum of
indecision.
He stated that usually such
eases would drag on from four
mopths to a year’s time, creat-
ies “volatile situhtion.” Since
many people depend on the final
verdict, the law now moves to-

important
A smart food shopper compares sizes, quality
and price. You buy the food that your family enjoys,
but if you have a choice, and all things are equal,
you'll take the lowest priced item.
In health care protection you should compare too.
While price is important — a few pennies one way
or another for the best buy is not important. A serious
illness can cost thousands of dollars. If you choose
the Statewide Plan, you're not only getting the most
for your dollar, you're getting peace of mind by
the carload. The combination of Blue Cross, Blue
Shield, with Metropolitan Major Medical adds up to
your best buy in health care protection — no matter
what little goodies or frills you might be offered
by the options available by other plans.
Remember — a bad buy at the market only costs
you a few pennies. A bad buy in health care
protection could be disastrous. Choose the STATE-
WIDE PLAN.

Good Luck, CSEA!
HEN President Nixon ordered his National wage and
price freeze order, no one was harder hit than public
employees. Federal workers got an extra hard blow when the
President announced that wage increases due them were to
be delayed for six months, not the three months ordered
for employees in the private sector.
This blatant discrimination against civil servants has
been continued in other areas, as well.
We were happy to observe, in face of this economic war
against public employees, that the New York State Civil
Service Employees Assn.—representing 200,000 State and lo-
cal government workers—has refused to bend to such high-
level pressure and mapped an all-out drive to obtain a 15
percent pay raise for State workers in forthcoming negoti-
ations and to press for substantial improvements in retire-
ment benefits.
The Employees Association has every right to do battle
for these two goals. The railroads, printing and building
industries, some sections of the steel industry and a host
of other private employee unions had concluded wage pacts
ranging from 32 to 49 percent prior to the freeze, This ts
really the area the President was setting up for a major
target. He had no call at all to take such devastating action
against public employees whose wage hikes have been no-
where near those gained in the public sector.
As for pension improvements, a Legislature which voted
itself such lucrative pensions has no moral right what-
soever to try and stall civil service ambitions for equal
treatment.
The Civil Service Employees Assn. has mapped out justi-
fiable and economically sound goals and we wish them
every success in the coming year.

Letters To
The Editor
McDonough Sends
Thanks For Support
Editor, The Leader:
I would very much apprect-
ate the opportunity, through the
columns of The Leader, to ex-
press my thanks for the fine
support given to me by members
of the Civil Service Employees
Assn, in my recent and success-
ful race for the first vice-pres-
Idency of the CSEA.
T can assure all of them that
I will make the most dedicated
efforts in the coming two years
to keep faith with the vote of
confidence they gave me.
Thomas McDonough,
Albany, N.Y.
Huber's Appreciation
Editor, The Leader;
It was heartwarming to re-
ceive the support I did in run-
ning for Statewide office for the
first time in the Civil Service
Employees Assn.
I congratulate my successful
opponent and send my deepest
thanks to those who supported
my candidady,
Frederick Huber,
Buffalo, N.Y.
Dudek Thanks Friends
Editor, The Leader:
While victory is sweet, the
knowledge of having thousands
of friends behind me Is heart-
warming, too,
I want to thank those many
voters —- known and unknown
to me — for the confidence and
friendship they expressed by
supporting my candidacy for
Statewide office in the Civil
Service Employees Assn.

Q. T had doctors’ bills while
1 was visiting a friend in an-
other State last spring. I filed
a claim with the Medicare office
in that State and they took out
the $50 deductible. I now have
bills from my own doctor, How
do I notify the Medicare office
in my home State so they won't
take out another $50 deductible?
A. You don’t have to worry
about paying the deduotible
twice. All Medicare claims are
coordinated through Medicare's
central office in Baltimore.
Q. Tam 64 and will be retir-
ing soon. My 66-year-old hus-
band, whe has been ill and un-
able to work for the past sev-°
eral years, collects a small social
security benefit, I have been
supporting him for the last sev-
eral years. Could he be entitled
to a benefit on my record?
A. Possibly. If he has been de-
pendent on you for at least one-
half of his support in the year
immediately before you become
entitled to social security retire-
ment benefits, he could qualify
as a dependent husband on your
social security record. He can col-
lect the larger of the benofite,
either on his own record or on
yours. He cannot collect both

Law & You
By RICHARD GABA
Hinancatiniemnmninimnnieinimeenmninennieens
Mr. Gaba is a member of the New York State Bar and chale-
man of the Labor Law Committee of the Nassau County Bar Assm,
The Representation Riddle
THE TAYLOR LAW has attempted to provide for sta-
bility of employee representation through .a procedure of
certification and recognition of employee units and unit
representatives, There are, however, four problems of ad-
justment of units. The four problems are as follows:
(1) ONE GOVERNMENTAL unit is taken over by another,
(2) A GROUP OF employees without a unit properly
should be included in another existing unit.
(3) A JOB TITLE 1s abolished after certification.
(4) A NEW JOB title is created after certification. @
1. WHEN ONE governmental body takes over the on-
going operations of another governmental body, it has
been held that the employee representatives in the gov-
ernment which remains shall be the surviving organi-
zation, and the new employees shall be added to such
survivor, In this manner, the accretion doctrine of the
private sector was applied to the public sector. The most
appropriate unit was determined by using the standard
of joint responsibility of the public employer and its em-
ployees to serve the public, considering administrative
convenience and minimizing the number of negotiating
units. Matter of Niagara Frontier Transportation Auth- {
ority, 3 PERB 4020. j
THIS DECISION leaves open the problem of unit de- j
termination if instead of a merger, governmental opera- }
tions are spun off to a new governmental entity such as
@& special district or public authority. cf. 2 PERB 5007.
2. THE SITUATION where a group of employees who
are not in any unit should be most appropriately in an
existing overall unit, has been considered by State PERB.
The Board has taken the position that the non-unit et
ployees cannot be added to the existing unit because t!
would violate the existing representative's right to ex-
clusive and unchallenged recognition, {
THUS, THE NON-UNIT employees must wait until
the period of unchallenged representation status expires
and then file a timely petition for certification into this |
most appropriate unit before the case can properly be
brought before PERB. Matter of Great Neck Board of
Education, 4 PERB 3017,
A CONTRARY position was taken by a hearing office!
of Nassau County PERB with regard to part-time facult!
in Nassau Community College. His position was that in
balancing the employees’ right to representation against
the employee organization’s right to unchallenged recog-
nition, that the non-unit employees should immediately
be added to the existing unit.
THE EMPLOYEE organization would be required to |
represent such employees even though !t did nob desire
to have them in the unit, He pointed out that If the em-
ployee representative did not properly represent the em-
ployees, then the County, under PERB rules, could petition
for an immediate decertification on the basis of abando)
ment, and in any case, the issue of representation coull
be decided at an election held when the existing employee
representative lost its period of unchallenged recognition. |
3. MOST RECOGNITION and certifications refer to |
employees by civil service titles rather than job deserip-
tions. It 1s not uncommon during the period of unchal-
lenged recognition that titles are changed. The change
may be either by elimination of the Job or the job |s placed
under a new and comparable title. There are no reported
decisions in this situation.
IT WOULD APPEAR that since there 1s no substantiv®
change, and that PERB is not in any way bound by civil
service titles, that a unilateral petition to PERB by either
the employer or the employee organization should be
permitted to amend the certification,
4, DURING THE PERIOD of unchallenged recognition,
new jobs may be created, There are no reported decisions
on this subject, Counsel for PERB has taken the position
that unilateral changes are not permitted during the
period of unchallenged recognition, 2 PERB 5012. It ae
appear that the alternatives are the same as those
exist in problem No. 2 already discussed, 1e., immediate
placement in an existing unit or no representation until
unchallenged recognition expires.

Wagner Committee Rep
CSEA Delegates Vote To Negotiate
22 Improvements In Pension Setup
Despite a proposed pension study by the State Legislature that may stall retire-
ment improvements,
the Civil Service Employees Assn.
forged ahead with plans to
bring pensions up to date through a series of 22 proposals adopted (for information pur-
representatives to the 61st annual convention of the CSEA.
poses only) in full session of
Ernest K. Wagner, chairman
of the pension committee, pre-
sented the committee report to
the delegates assembled in the
Main Ballroom of the Waldorf.
Astoria Hotel in New York Clty.
“The committee made every
effort,” Wagner explained, “to
find items which would be of
greatest benefit to the majority
of our members, Proposals which
would not be of maximum ben-
efit to the members of the As-
sociation were rejected.”
He also explained that a com-
mission has been created by the
Governor to study public em-
ployee pension and retireme:
systems.
“It is within the power of
this commission,” Wagner point-
ed out, “to make recommen-
dations to the Governor and
the Legislature concerning pen-
sion benefits for public employ-
ees, The CSEA pension com-
mittee feels that the recom-
mendations of this commission
shall have no effect upon our
collective bargaining right or de-
mands made through that same
process,”
The pension committee re-
port was prepared by chairman
Wagner and committee members
Allce Bennett, Aaron Burd,
Prederick J. Pick, Michael Sewek,
L. G. Sunderhaft, Alfred Weiss-
bard, Roland D. Martindale and
Louts Colby,
‘Their proposals, as amended
by the full delegate body, are
itemized below
R-1—Provide a 20-year half-
pay pension plan which would
provide 1/40th of the highest
annual salary for each year of
service, up to 40 years, without
minimum retirement age or
minimum service requirements.
R-2—Provide the option, at
time of retirement, for with-
drawal of annuity contribution
R-3—Provide full loan pri

CSEA Charges @
Unfair Practice
In W. Babylon
(From Leader Correspondent)
SMITHTOWN — The Civil
Service Employees Assn, has
filed an unfair-labor-prac-
tices charge against the West
Babylon School District for ig-
noring seniority in an austerity-
forced reduction in transporta-
tion services.
‘The charge was filed with the
State Public Employment Rela-
tions Board and an early hear-
ing requested in view of the fact
that schools were reopening.
Long Island regional field su-
pervisor Edwin Cleary said the
CSEA contract specifically pro-
vided for seniority protection. In
addition, he sald the District's
actions also violated contract
provisions requiring consultation
with the union and adherence
to past practices.
“There is a lot of unrest
among the workers,” he observed.
Forty-eight drivers in the unit
are involved. The number must
be reduced to 23 because of re-
duced transportation provided
under an austerity budget man-
dated by taxpayers

Banning Contracting
Outside Services
(From Leader Correspondent)
MINEOLA—The Civil Ser-
vice Employees Assn. is fight-
ing a threat to job security
in local school districts posed
by a trend toward contracting
with outside agencies for ser-
vices.
Long Island regional field su-
pervisor Edwin Cleary noted that
several Long Island school dis-
tricts are studying the merits
of contracting with caterers for
school cafeteria meals. “We have
advised all fieldmen to negotiate
contracts prohibiting outside con-
tracting if {t means putting our
people out of work,” Cleary as-
serted,
Negotiations with school dis-
tricts will be initiated in Decem-
ber.
Cleary noted that the threat
may be extended to other areas
of the State.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, September 14, 1971
DURING THE WEEKS FROM
SEPTEMBER 15 TO OCTOBER 15,
THE CITY EMPLOYEE HEALTH PLAN REOPENING PERIOD,
(OU WILL BE FACED WITH MAKING AN IMPORTANT DECISION
CONCERNING THE HEALTH PROTECTION OF YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY.
Here are six major reasons why H.I.P. is your best choice
for family health protection:
| H.LP. is the ONLY plan that provides unlimited medical, surgical, special-
ist, maternity, laboratory and X-ray care. These basic benefits require NO
complicated claim forms. NO deductibles. NO co-insurance. NO out-of-pocket
expenses, NO lengthly wait to receive back money that you haye already paid
out,
r4 H.1.P. provides fully prepaid doctor benefits for maternity. NO other
health plan in New York fully insures you for all of the medical care that
you require from a qualified Obstetrician in and out of the hospital during
your pregnancy, delivery and following delivery,
H.LP. provides you with complete specialist services both in your doc-
tor’s office and in the hospital for as long as the specialist services are
medically needed.
H.L.P.’s Special Service program arranges for fully prepaid medical care
if a rare and costly illness should strike, Coverage under this outstanding
benefit pays for brain surgery, open-heart surgery and other complex opera-
tions and procedures that often overwhelm a family with catastrophic med-
ical bills, even when there is some kind of added coverage.
H] H.LP.’s Automated Multiphasic Health Testing Center for the early
detection of disease provides an extensive health test for all new adult
members of H.1.P, Each of the many tests is processed by modern laboratory
equipment, advanced computers and skilled health personnel. The tests pro-
vide your doctor with valuable medical information about you which he needs
to help keep you in good health,
H,I.P. WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT IT IS THE ONLY HEALTH PLAN
THAT HAS NEVER REDUCED ITS BENEFITS TO CITY EMPLOYEES!
Your medical needs are looked after by teams of experts who see to it that you get
the care you need, when you need it, for as long as needed. Because your medical
care is fully prepaid your physician doesn’t have to hold back on any medical
service you may need, no matter how rare or costly it may be.
Eee ee
This is the level of modern medical care
that you have earned as a result of your
dedicated service as a New York City Employee.

TERNITY CARE
Q. What does an OBSTETRI-
CIAN charge for his services?
A. We don’t know exactly be-
cause fees vary considerably
but it can he expensive,
If you are a member of H.1,P,
your H.1.P, Obstetrician will
provide all necessary maternity
services and you never worry
about extra charges,
Most other health insurance
Programs place strict limita
tions on maternity care, This
often comes as a great surprise
to families who forget to read
their health insurance policies,
H.LP, places no limitations on
maternity care provided during
pregnancy, delivery and follow-
ing delivery.
One of the many reasons
for joining H.1.P,
Welfare League has set the
wheels in motion for meeting

Restructuring Of CSEA
Begins To Take Shape
(Continued from Page 1)
would continue under a State-
wide president, executive vice-
president and board of direc-
tors who would set general policy.
For the time being, the pro-
posals are now being studied by
each chapter in the Association
and first steps toward putting
some of them into effect could
occur at the general meeting
scheduled for next March
Because of the deep interest
in the efforts of the restructur-
ing committee, thelr complete
report follows.
Statewide Structure
Background
‘The CSEA ts presently divid-
ed into what is known as six
Conference Areas, In each area,
it ts optional for State or Coun-
ty chapters to be affiliated, The
Conferences and the County
Workshop each receive $1,500
per year paid quarterly by CS-
EA. Each affiliated chapter ts
assessed certain dues and all in-
come is used for administering
Conference affairs.
Each Conference has elections,
officers, @ Board of Directors
or an Executive Committee and
committees, At present the Con-
ferences have no policy-making
decision in the affairs of CSEA
and uusually only serve as &
media of communication with
affiliated chapters, and in some
areas this is poor.
‘The president of the Confer-
ence is elected only by the af-
fillated chapters and sits as «
voting member of the Board
of Directors of CSEA.
No Conference has a paid staff
or a respective office to work
from.
A. Suggestion: Many sugges-
tlons recelved and membership
heard expressed extreme inter-
est in having Conferences take
® more active role and have
such areas possess autonomy not
now experienced.
Proposal A
(1) The Association shall be
divided Into six areas as pres-
ently exist, each area to be
known as Region not a Confer-
ence,
(2,) Each region shall be un-
der the direction of the region-
al president.
(3.) Each region shall have
its own respective regional of-
fice and staff as approved by
the Board of Directors of the
State Association.
(4) The staff shall be under
the supervision of the regional
office manager presently known
as regional field supervisor
(5.)Each office shall be staff-
ed with a regional research an-
alyst, regional public relations
representative, regional politic~
al action and legislative analyst
and appropriate clerical staff
All regional fieldmon and assis-
tant fieldmen shall work from
and report to the regional of-
tice
(6) Legal representation shall
be selected by the following pro-
cedure;
‘The regional officers and ex-
ecutive board shall nominate at
least three law firma to repre-
went its regional membership,
‘The three names shall be for-
warded to CSEA headquarters
whereby the CSEA president and
the retained CSBA law firm will
review the qualifications and
legal abilities and select one
which will be acceptable to
the regional executive board.
(1) All CSEA chapters, both
County and State, shall belong
to the regional office wherein
they are located.
(8) The six regions shall be
known as follows and the reg-
fonal office shall be located as
follows:
Albany Region office, Albany;
Buffalo Region office, Buffalo;
Syracuse Region office, Syracuse,
with two satellite offices—Can-
ton and Binghamton; New York
Clty Region office, New York
City; Long Island Region office,
to be decided, and Mid-Hudson
Region office, to be decided.
Tf a Region, due to geographic-
al area, deems it necessary, it
may petition the board of di-
rectors for approval for addi-
tional satellite offices.
(9.) For proper administration,
communication and adherence to
Association policy, each respec-
tive regional staff representative
shall be deemed to be part of
the Association Headquarters
staff, For example: the region-
al public relations representative
shall be part of the public re-
lations unit in headquarters,
thus belng familiar with the gen-
eral public relations program
and reporting of the Associa-

implementation on April 1, 1972.

pounded two: increase, with
a $1 across-the-board mini-
mum, provided by those con-
tracts currently in effect, has
y realized and is unaf-
d by the President's freeze
of wages. The committee's pro-
posals are similarly not affected
by the 90-day moratorium on

not be implemented until April
1, 1972, a date far beyond the
expiration of the 90-day period.

A's annual meeting last week,
Riot At Attica
(Continued from Page 1)
hostages are civillan employees
represented by CSEA. Wenzl at-
tributed much of the recent trou-
ble in State prisons to the Divi-
sion of the Budget, which has
withheld the funds necessary for
prison reform programs, in-
creased staff and general up-
srading of physical facilities

saw fit to ignore the riot at Au-
burn last Nov. 5, and cut the
Correctional Services budget. We
can only view this new disaster
as the result of a regrettably
negligent attitude on the Divi-
sion. Maybe this appalling situa-
Hon at Attica will open their
eyes,”
