a Republican decision that con-

*CSEA To Attempt Override Erie CSEA Members To Vote
Of Barber, Beautician Appeal Nov. 18 On Proposed Contract
Denial By Division Of/C&C
ALBANY+-The Civil Service Employees Afsn. has blasted
the State Division of Classification and Co pensation for
turning down|CSEA’s request for the reallocation of barbers
and beauticians in State institutions.
A CSEA cominittee, made up
of employees in|these titles, met
following the Henlal and de-
cided to appeal the Division's
decision to the State Civil Ser-
vice Commission, The realloca-
tion was coupled with a career
ladder proposal, |which also was
denied.
@ “t's apparent| to us that the
Division of Classification and
Compensation is becoming a dead
end street for such requests,
CSEA official charged. “The Di-
vision has consistently ignored
overwhelming evidence favoring
such requests. Instead of basing
its decisions solely on the merits
and the evidence’ presented, this
State agency has established un-
realistic criteria) and rejected
numerous requests for wholly
subjective reasons:
Funds Set Aside
“Funds are set aside for an-
ticipated reallocations and re-
classifications only to go unused
If a group of employees has
received an upgrading in the last
five years, the odds of receiving
another upgrading are virtually
nil even though the dutfes and

“To say that fhe Division ts ex-

derstatement. [In many cases
CSEA has spen} months in pre-
paring a reallpcation request,

refutable evidenge only to have

Planted Evidence
ALBANY—Believe it or not,
a State Trooper discovered a
marijuana plant in the front
window of a car on the State
Thruway recently.
Trooper R.S. Kuchesky no-
ticed the potted plant and wond-
ered why the occupants of the
car were young men instead of
the gray-haired ladies one
would expect to be transporting
a plant. His investigation dis-
closed the plant to be mari-
juana and the young men to
have an open container of an
alcoholic beverage in the car,
also against the law.

(From Leader Correspondent)
BUFFALO—Erile County white-collar workers, represented by the Civil Service Hm-
ployees Assn., will vote Nov. 18 on a proposed two-year pact that calls for total wage
increases of 15 percent.
The contract was offered to the CSEA members with negotiators’ approval, but the
2,000 members present at a meet-
ing at which the offer present-
ed voted by a show of hands to
defer acting on the pact until
the Nov. 18 session.
The contract, the first forged
between the CSEA and the Coun-
ty under provisions of the Tay-
lor Law, involves 5,500 County
workers.
“It 1s the best contract the ne-
gotiating team could come out
with,” said George H, Clark Sr.,
president of the County CSEA
unit.
Eulfs Cathay, chief CSEA ne-
gotiator from Albany, said he
was “highly satisfied” with the
agreement.
But during the sometimes heat-
ed meeting, some members shout-
ed for a “strike” against the
County.
Both Cathay and Clark repeat-
ed that the pact provided con-
siderable gains for County work-
ers. One item that was not in-
cluded in the provisions was for
shift differential, an issue the
negotiators said affected only 89
of the chapter's 5,500 members.
Also during the meeting, some
members demanded that the
County provide wage increases of
20 percent, instead of the nine
Calabotta and Josephine Panowicz, children of
chapter members, and Joan M, Feinen and Regina
both chapter members who are con-
tinuing their University education, At far right,
looking on, is scholarship selection panel chair-
man Howard Strauss,
percent in the first year of the
Pact and the six percent in the
second year.
Besides the pay provisions, the
contract terms are:

tive years’ service.
© Fully paid Blue Cross
insurance the first year,
fully paid Blue Shield insur-

Thousands Received
Applications Being Processed
For Education, Training Courses
ALBANY — The Civil Service Employees Assn. report-
ed this w¢ek that State workers’ response has been over-
whelming
CSEA education director E.
Norbert Zahm] who 1s coordin-
ating the progiams for the Em-
ployees Associat}on, reported that
thousands of applications have
already been iecelved by the
State and that processing 1s now
going on. The $tate Civil Ser-
vice Dept. has bepn charged with
the responsibility for processing
the employee applications.
“There has beef a much great-
er response to tHis initial phase
of the program tan we original-
ly expected,” dahm declared,
“therefore, the State 1s having
some difficulty i} processing all
of the applicatiohs, and setting
procedures to review them.”
He continued, |‘Because of the
tremendous resppnse from State
employees, stricfer criteria will
have to be set fof this first si
of the training ptograms. For ex-
ample, tighter} limits will
haye to be set fpr employees to
qualify to take|certain courses
because of the gfeat demand for
them. The courses must be strict~
ly related to the| employee's job
in order to give |space available
FINAL 3 WEEKS
o the educational and training programs being
the State| as a part of
to the people who can get the
most from the courses.”
Zahm also said that logistics
of the program are complicated:
“Since the training will be pro-
vided at the {numerous edu-
cational institutibns offering the
courses, quotas \nust be set in
each location ani for each bar-
gaining unit of epployees. It will
take a little time |to work all this
out, but I am silre that in the
end the best intprests of State
employees will bq served, CSEA
1s working with the State to in-
sure that fair ard equal treat-
ment is given to dll the employ-
ees who have expressed interest
in this first stage of the pro-
gram.”
Zahm
who are
also colinseled those
not acdepted into a
course at this tinje with these
words: “All empldyees who are
interested must r¢member that
this is only the first phase of
the training progrdms and edu-
cational opportunifies negotiat-
ed by CSEA. The program runs
the life of the ¢ontracts and
many more phases| are yet to be
have
many more opportunities to par-
ticipate.
“Because of the great response
and real interest slfown by State
employees in advqneing them-
through th@se program
is going tq place gr
emphasis on expanfiing the edu-
cational and training programs
when negotiations |for the next

Ad equal opportunlly employer
We wish we had time to send
out a card like the above everytime
one of our subscribers or his
dependents were hospitalized.
Obviously, it’s impossible.
However, the nicest Get-Well
Card that we know of is a paid-up
hospital and doctor bill after the
illness.
STATEWIDE PLAN subscribers
receive very few hospital bills after
an illness. Often, all hospital bills
are paid in full. THE STATEWIDE
PLAN has been revised and im-
proved year after year for so many
years, that today, it provides the
kind of coverage that protects
public employees best.
The combination of BLUE CROSS
for hospital bills, BLUE SHIELD for
doctor’s bills supplemented by
Metropolitan’s Major Medical in
case of a long, lingering illness,
gives STATEWIDE subscribers one
of the finest packages of health
insurance coverage in the nation, In
fact, other states and plans use it
as a model package.
If you don’t have THE STATE-
WIDE PLAN, we have only one
question to ask you.
Why?
There isn’t a better plan in the
state — at least not one that we
know about.

Support Needed
HE Civil Service Employees Assn. {s currently in the
middle of a drive which deserves the solid support
of all its present membership for a number of reasons.
The members should encourage their fellow workers
who have not yet enrolled in CSEA to do so in order to
earry their fair share of the burden that has won for them
numerous lucrative benefits at the bargaining table.
A successful drive will result in a stronger organization
in terms of membership which, in turn, results in greater
strength at the bargaining table. It should be pointed out
to potential members that they are actually enhancing their
_ own future by joining CSEA.
Back To The Table
T is heartening to see that the Civil Service Employees
Assn. and the Department of Mental Hygiene have re-
“ turned to the bargaining table following an impasse which
has lasted several weeks. CSEA declared the impasse when
the department flatly refused to accept any of the union
demands concerning departmental matters.
Collective bargaining, we again remind State and local
government officials, is not merely sitting down at a table
and answering legitimate demands with a predetermined
“No.”
Rather, it 1s both sides sitting together, discussing the
varlous problems encountered by the employees and coming
up with a mutually agreeable solution.
The sooner that employers realized this, the sooner will
both sides have easier times at the bargaining table.

sand Answers
Q. I will be 72 in November
1970, and I am still working
full-time and not collecting any
social security benefits, Will I
be able te receive my social se-
curity cheeks for the entire year
of 1970 regardless what I earned
fm 19707
A. You ean receive checks be~
ginning with November 1970, the
month that you are 72. The
amount of benefits you receive
during the months from Jan-
uary thru October depends on
the total earnings for 1970 and
the months you earned $140 or
less,
Q. I worked every month and
earned $2,400, How much is so-
security benefits will I have?
A. You are normally en-
titled to earn up to $1,600 for
the year. You exceeded this
amount by $720 and therefore
\ ill lose one-half of this amount
or $360 from the total benefits
payable.
Q. I wil be 65 on Dec. 19, 1970.
Can I receive a check for De-
cember?
A. Yes. You can receive a full
month benefit for December if
your earnings for December do
not exceed $140.
Q. My wife is entitled to bene-
fits on my account. Can she re-
ceive her cheeks when I work?
A. No, Your earnings affect
your own and your wife's checks.
Q. Must I include my income
from my union pension when
I report my earnings to So-
cial Security?
A. No. Income from savings
investments, pensions and in-
surance will not affect your
benefits and should not be
counted in as earnings,
Q. My company was on strike
during May and June and I did
not work during these months,
Can I receive my benefits for
these months?
A, Yes. Regardless of total
earnings in a year, benefits are
payable for any months in
which you did not earn $140
or more,

Your Public
Relations IQ
By LEO J. MARGOLIN
A
Mr. Margolin is Professor of Business Administration at
the Borough of Manhattan Community College and Adjunct
Professor of Public Administration in New York University’s
Graduate Schoo] of Public Administration,
Those Pre-Pension Days
CIVIL SERVICE public relations has come a long way
since the first Federal civil service pension was paid just
over 50 years ago.
IT’S HARD TO believe that as recently as the Summer
of 1920, some 80-year-olds in Federal civil service came to
work in wheel chairs or on crutches because they couldn’t
afford to quit work.
THEY FACED A brutal choice—work until you dropped,
or stop working and go to the local poorhouse.
JUST BEFORE the pension law, there were civil serv-
ants who were 88 years old with 60 years of service; 80 years
old with 54 years of service; 89 years old with 37 years of
service, etc.
THERE WERE NO pensions for Federal civil servants
until Aug. 20, 1920, when the law became effective. The
range of retirement pay then was $150 to $720 per year.
THAT'S A FAR cry from the demands for half-pay after
15 years now being heard in some civil service pay nego-
tiations.
IT REQUIRED A lot of civil service public relations to
make even that tiny start in 1920.
IN A SPAN OF 50 years since that very modest begin-
ning, civil service public relations, generating through the
civil service organizations, has made tremendous progress.
IT WAS A DAY-IN day-out job, year after year. There
could be no letdown, or pensions and other benefits would
have been sidetracked or detoured for other matters where
the pressure was more sustained.
JUST TO SHOW you how effectively public relations
hhas been cooking in favor of today’s Federal civil servant,
the average retirement age now is about 60 and the average
service is 23 years.
THIS IS IN SHARP contrast with the first group of re-
tirees in 1920 — 551 were 80 years old or over, the oldest
being 93,
THE FACT IS that without the alertness and strengths
of civil service organizations, as spokesmen for civil servants
as a group and as individuals, pensions would either be in
the peanut category or the work span would be so long that
no retiree could really enjoy retirement.
THE BACKGROUND story of Federal pensions should
be remembered any time our readers feel they can rest on
their oars and forget public relations when it comes to pay,
pensions and benefits.
Press For Pants-Suits
In City RealEstate Dept.
Almost faster than anyone could say “stretch-suspen-
ders,” Ira Duchin, City real estate commissioner, has given
the nod to female Department employees who have re-
quested the right to wear pants-suits to work.
In a memo dated Noy. 4, Du-
chin disclosed how he dealt with
the touchy issue: “I have been
asked by several employees if
the wearing of pants-suits by
female employees would be con-
sidered proper attire, Permit me
to say,” he offered, “it would be
19th and 20th floors.
“You have my fullest consent
to wear pants-suits,” he stated,
adding “I am not even placing
restrictions on the age or di-
mensions of those who can or
cannot wear such outfits.” He
said he trusted the employees in

“TOMORROW'S MEDICAL CARE TODAY”
1.P. doesn’t wait for tomorrow. Why should you? Let’s open up a public
discussion on the kind of health care Americans want but seldom get.
eral,
What kind of medical care would you like for yourself and your family?
Have you ever drawn up a medical bill of rights for yourself?
What does it include?
Try making a list. What would head your medical care inventory?
How much health protection do you need?
These questions are being asked today by labor, industry, commerce, Fed-
State and local governments.
The 1970's will be a decade of profound changes in the delivery of medical
services to the American people.
The changes are in the wind and before Congress. The goal is simple: Com-
prehensive medical care coverage for all people, for however long the need.
gun.
The achievement of universal health care protection may not be so simple.
But as a people, we feel this is a national priority and the debate has be-
H.I.P. for almost a generation has been in the forefront of group practice
medicine.
H.I.P. feels that pre-paid service benefits are the best and easiest way for
most people to meet their medical needs.
So do many of the authorities who are looking into America’s health de-
livery systems.
Today, the nation’s thinking has caught up to H.I.P.
We're practicing tomorrow’s medicine today.
H.I.P. has achieved its eminence by providing these major benefits to all
of its members:
© Freedom from doctor bills
© Unlimited medical, surgical, specialist, laboratory and X-ray services
e Reve and complicated medical procedures provided without additional
cos!
e pully covered emergency service, available at night, weekends, and hol-
lays.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, November 10, 19
From Leader Correspondent)
BUFFALO—Kurt E, Ruske,
a member of the Civil Serv-
ice Employees Assn. and a
groundskeeper at the State
University of New York at Buf-
falo, has won a $100 prize and
an award from Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller for a suggestion con-
cerning sharpening lawnmower
blades.
Ruske, a native of East Prus-
sla and an employee at the Uni-
versity since 1957, was awarded
the prizes by Dr. Robert I. Ket-
ter, UB president, with Edward
Dudek, State University of New
York CSEA representative.
His suggestion enables work-
ers to save from three to eight
hours sharpening blades and
involves allowing the drive chain
power mowers to sharpen the
mower's blades.
His award certificate was
signed by the Governor, Ersa
H. Poston, State Civil Service
Commissioner Chairman, and
Charles F. Stockmeister and Mi-
chael N. Scels!, commissioner.

. Every day somebody
with another cockaticnnie $ idea shout
how to solve New York's problems.
There have been a lot of crackpot suggestions about how to
@ceal with New York's problems.
@
And some not so crackpot.
But there’s one thing everyone il The people in the
New York area have a unique set of problems like no other people in
the world.
Nobody pays higher taxes. Or higher rents.
Nobody lives through more crippling strikes, more dug up
thoroughfares, or more all around aggravation.
No one waits longer to see a good movie, or get a leaking
faucet fixed, or even just to get a waiter’s attention. (Not to mention
waiting for ghost trains on the Long Island and Penn Central
railroads.)
And so when we created WINS, the New York area’s first all
news station, we decided that there was one thing a New Yorker
‘wasn’t going to have to wait for: His news.
¥v
WINS is as fast-paced in tone and style as the community
itself. Because we serve a people who make news as fast as we can
report it.
We didn’t set out to be an “emergency station.” But what we
found was that in Crisis City, life is just one little emergency after
another. Which makes us practically indispensable to a community
like this. :
We're there with all news all the time. 24 hours a day.
Because as bad as the news may sometimes be, New. Yorkers
have an insatiable need to know.
