14 Thruway Aides Win
Overtime Pay And Are
Back On 37'%2-Hour Week

ALBANY—An impartial arbitrator has ruled that 14 New
York State Thruway maintenance employees, whose working
hours were arbitrarily increased by 214 hours a week in the
fall of 1969, be paid in cash for that time.

The arbitrator, William A.
Toomey Jr, ruling on a griev-
ance filed in 1969 by the Civil
Service Employees Assn. sald
that the employees who had been
hours at the Els-
mere garage and were forced to
work 40 hours a week upon being
transferred to the Albany Divi-
garage, should be paid at
the rate of time-and-a-half for
all hours worked over 374%, since
Oct. 1, 1969. Toomey also ruled
that the employees be returned
to a 37}2-hour work week sched-
ule, and be pald overtime for
any hours worked in exceas of
the scheduled week.

A CSEA spokesman said that
the back overtime pay could
amount to as much as $1,800
per man

CSEA's Arguments

In filing the grievance, CSEA
officials claimed that the em-
ployees were hired to work a
five-day, 37-hour week and
that the transfer of the employ-
ces In the headquarters garage
unit did not result in an ap-
preciable change in the nature
of the work they had performed.
Toomey agreed, noting that the
Authority had simply “moved
the (headquarters) unit and the
work performed by the unit from
one physical location to an-
other.” He said, “The work has

remained the same .. .” and
found that there was no inte-
gration of work forees or work
(as contended by the Thruway)
and, therefore, the employees
had a right to expect that the
same hours of work would con-
nue for the same work in the
same unit.”

‘The grievance was filed in
behalf of Charles Finn, repre-
senting employees formerly em-
ployed In the headquarters gar-
age, Frederick C. Riester of the
law firm of DeGraff, Foy, Con-
way, and Holt-Harris; Theodore
Dralle, shop steward; and Jos~
eph P. Reedy, collective nego-
tiating specialist, represented
CSEA tn the arbitration proceed-
ings.

Before Joint Committee

Wenzl Leads CSEA
Team In Hearing
On Mental Hygiene

ALBANY — Yesterday’s warnings on the near collapse
of basic treatment of patients in the State Mental Hygiene
Dept.’s institutions for the mentally ill have become today's
reality, Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl, president of the Civil Ser-

vice Employees Assn, sald here
last week.

Dr. Wenzl led a team of 12
CSEA members who testified
last week before a Joint Legisla-
tive Committee on Mental Hy-
giene, held in the Capitol Build-
ing here. He lashed out at in-
novative programs and budget
cuts which were responsible for
dangerously-reduced staffing in
mental hospitals. This, he said,
has brought basic care treatment
in many of the larger tnstitu-
tions near “virtual collapse.”

Heated testimony on employee
morale and work conditions was
given by other CSEA members.

A Royal Blast

Amos Royals, president of the
CSEA chapter at Ward’s Island
Hospital, blasted the program of
unitization in the institutions,
charging that the decentraliza-
tion going on in various institu-
tions results in the hiring of top
level staff while ignoring the
needs of employees who directly
work with the patients.

Royals attacked the spending
of thousands of dollars on re-
modeling executive sultes and
offices, including the purchase
of new furniture, central alr
conditioning and other luxuries,
in carrying out the unitization.

“Comparatively speaking,”
said Royals, “breaking up Man-
hattan State Hospital into sev-
eral separate facilities under the
unitization program “has result-
ed in five administrations with

highly-paid bureaucrats doing
what a single administration
once did.”

Royals spoke of understaffed
wards where both male and fe-
male patients live and the prob-
lems that result: physical at
tacks on both patients and em-
ployees because of poor security,
inadequate clothing, and the
change in the admission policy
which allows a patient, no mat~
ter how dangerous he is to him~
self or others, to “roam freely
around the hospital.”

Mra, Julia Duffy, CSEA board
member and president of the
Pilgrim State Hospital chapter,
talked of employees purchasing
material with thelr own money
to clean up their wards and also
spending a great deal of their
own money in buying little
things, such as cigarettes and
tollet articles, considered luxur-
fea for the patients

Mra, Duffy, a head nurse, also

told the committee of the inade-
quate facilities for tuberculosis
patients who come in weekly
from other institutions, She also
criticized the Mental Hygiene
Dept. administration for not di-
recting its funds where they are
most needed, pointing out thas
ward service personnel—not pro-
gram analysts, assistant com-
missioners, deputies directors or
other administrators—are need-
ed.

Pou ghkeepsie CSEA
* Scores Points On
Rehiring Of Aides

POUGHKEEPSIE — The City of Poughkeepsie unit of
the Civil Service Employees Assn. has ratified an agreement
concerning the layoff of employees under the 1972 operating
budget and the possible reinstatement of these persons

during the year.

‘The agreement was passed by
“an overwhelming majority” of
the approximately 50 CSEA
members who attended a recent
meeting, according to Gerard
Reilly, unit president.

According to Reilly, the agree-
ment will become official when
signed by him and John C. F.
Gelb, acting clty manager.

The approval of the agree-
ment comes after several weeks
of negotiations between city of-
ficlals and representatives of the
municipal, regional and State
chapters of the Association

Among the points outlined tn
the agreement are procedures by
which those persons dismissed as
of Dec. 31 can return to employ-
ment with the city.

Constant Review

It reads, in part, “The parties

agree that the city will contin-

uously review and reappraise its
financial and budgetary position
throughout the year and in par-
ticular to scrutinize the same on
a continuing basis tn order to
determine whether or not sur-
pluses will or may become avail-
able

"In the event such surpluses
become available, tt will in its
diseretion recreate positions and/
or services giving priority to
those employees previously laid
off -

The agreement provides that
employees who were laid off and
are able to return to work for
the City will be reinstated rather
than rehired, where permitted
by law. Reinstatement will allow
the employee to retain seniority
rights and to return to a post
equal in rank to the one he held
at the time of the layoff.

Chapter president Albert J.

Employees had argued that the

who have families. In addition,
it was argued that the night
work presented physical hazards,
and that seniority had been ta-

Little Experience Needed —
For Many Post Office Jobs

Jobs as mail handler, which has no training or experience requirements, are open
for application at any time with the U.S. Postal Service in Manhattan. In addition, some
experience as custodian, garageman or motor vehicle operator may land applicants a Post
Office job in one of these titles.

Applicants for mail handler
need present no experience, and
anyone at least 17 years old may
apply for this job, which pays
from $7,290 to $9,688 year for
regular employees; substitute em~-
employees are paid from $3.63 to
$4.82 an hour.

‘Two tests must be taken for
this job. The written test, ap-
proximately two hours in length,
tests address checking, following
oral directions and the under-
standing of words. The strength
and stamina test, given after
passage of the written exam,
requires the lifting and manipu-
lating of sacks welghing up to
70 pounds,

Candidates for custodian with
the Manhattan Postal Service
will be rated on thelr experience
in using hand or power cleaning
equipment, ability to handle
weights and loads, and ability
to work relatively independently,
‘There is no written test.

Custodians are pald $6,007 s

City’s Need For Additional
Stenos Keeps Walk-In Aloft

A substantial need for stenographers has been cited by
various City agencies, causing the City Personnel Dept. to
continue scheduling daily walk-in practicals for the posi-

tions.

Room M-10, at the 40 Worth
St. offices of the Department,
provides the test site, Walk-in
candidates, if successful, can
start off at $6,600 and go up
incrementally to the $7,550 pla-
teau. In addition, chance for
Promotion arise periodically to
the senior steno level; salaries
there run $6,000-8,500,

New duties have recently been
inserted into the steno job de-
scription. Most relate to sec-
retarial chores, such as the op-
eration of office machines.

‘The other major change in-
volves citizenship, Formerly, an
applicant needed only to pledge
the desire for American citizen-
ship, but now must be a US,
citizen prior to taking the exam.

Few Qualifications

Aside from citizenship, few
other standards have been erect~
ed. Neither age, experience nor
education will be invoked in

screening candidates, The ma-
jor factor, of course, ls the abil-
ity to take transeription—in Eng-
Ush—swiftly and accurately.

The stenographic test will re-
quire taking dictation at the
rate of 80 words per minute for
three minutes. Also, candidates
must take a multiple-choice test
based on the dictation to de-
termine their understanding of
the material transcribed. A qual-
ifying typing test requires a speed
of 35 words per minute with no
more than elght mistakes in
five minutes,

Supervisors Dropped

The City Board of Examiners
has deemed two candidates for
promotion to Supervisor I (so-
cial work) not qualified for this
examination, No. 0712, Six ap-
plicants for supervisor I (soctal
work) were also disqualified from
promotional exam No. 0713.

A Fresh Note

OR a change, it was refreshing last week in Syracuse
F to hear a Republican legislator, Assemblyman Leonard
F. Bersani, declare publicly that “I don’t think we (the
Legislature) should shut the door on your legitimate
demands and negotiations because of our budget problems.”

The Onondaga legislator was speaking to a group of
public employees attending a meeting of the Civil Service
Employees Assn. Savings will have to be found then in the
State’s budget, he declared, to meet the State’s increased
costs.

We sincerely hope the Assemlyman can influence a good
many of his co-legislators in the GOP to start making
some similar pronouncements, It is certainly a good sign
when a breath of fresh air on benefits for civil servants
comes from the Onondaga area, a county hardly known for
championing the cause of State employees.

Pressure Building

IVIL Service organizations in New York City and
C throughout the State are certain to start generating
some pressures in the Legislature soon If some positive action
is not taken on getting pension measures out of the hands
of a so-called special committee and back onto the floors
of the Senate and the Assembly where they belong.

No one in public employment has been fooled into
thinking that this special committee intends to do any-
thing about retirement legislation this sesssion. The com-
mittee's first report, which the Civil Service Employees
Assn, tore to pieces, was nothing more than a rehash of
a previous report made by another commission.

All right! Let's point it out again. This happens to be
an election year, and a hot one at that, Civil servants have
taken enough of a beating the past 18 months and they are
certainly going to show their resentment at the polls.

‘Civil Service Power’ is now a reality, Let those who
doubt it take their chances next November.

bills could be sent to the Gov-
ernor for approval or veto.

Tt is this kind of legislative
concentration on old chestnuts
of legislation going nowhere that
provoked Senate Minority Leader
Joseph Zaretzki and Assembly
Minority Leader Stanley Steingut
to describe the present session
as a “do nothing" Legislature.
According to the Democratic leg-
islative leaders, “We are tn the
seventh week of the 1972 session
and nothing of any consequence
has been done.”

Zaretzki and Steingut see the
slow pace of the Legislature as
part of a “master plan put to-
gether by the Republican leaders
to do nothing of any importance
in 1972, close down the Legisla-
ture as soon as possible, and to
Ignore the pressing problems
facing the people of the State.”

Curiously enough, Democrats
are not alone in thelr concern
over the seemingly comatose
state of the legislative process,
Republican members are also
grumbling about the snails’ pace
of activity, but are obviously not
as vociferous as are their Dem-
ocratic colleagues in publicizing
their displeasure. Many of the
legislators have moved into their
new offices on the Albany Mall,
in the building called NLOB
(New Legislative Office Bulld-
tng) by the legislative leaders,
but irreverently called by the
members SLOB (State Legisla-
tive Office Building), Yet not
even the plush new offices have
removed the feeling of restive-
ness among the members.

Two-Year System

Some of this feeling ts gen-
erated by the fact that this ts
the first year that the Legisla-
ture {s working on a two-year
bill system, that ts, all bills in-
troduced last year that have not
been disposed of in the previous
session remain alive for the cur-
rent session. As a result, legtsla~
tors, who in the past years had
been kept busy during the early
weeks in the session reintroduc-
ing their favorite bils, and get-
ting out releases on them for the
bene¢it of their constituents and
local newspapers, found this year
very little to do.

Another factor that contrib-
utes to legislative lethargy is the
fact that problems of State taxa-
tlon and revenues for the coming
fiscal year were substantially
disposed of during the special
session of the Legislature that
was convened after Christmas,
Implicit in the call o” the ses~
sion and the action taken Is the
faot that the State is on the
verge of fiscal bankruptcy. Under
the circumstances, legislators
are reluctant to sponsor with any
dogree of vigor, programs that
involve expenditures,

At best, the State budget ts
precariously + balanced by hopes
for substantial Federal ald and
by optimistic estimates of rey-
enues next year under the exist-
ing tax structure. Any adverse
reaction with respect to elther
Federal revenue sharing or in the
atate of the economy will unbal-
ance the budget and produce
another fiscal crisis, No legisla~

Rules Cannot Violate Rights

THE NEW TREND in hair styles has resulted in a
State Supreme Court decision upholding a public employee's
constitutional right to maintain his hair in the so-called
“mod” style. John Hunt, a volunteer fireman was suspend-
ded from the Fire Department of the Massapequa Fire Dis-
trict for failing to adhere to the standards of hair, side-
burns, mustaches, and beards as prescribed by the Board of
Fire Commissioners of that district.

THE RULE which governed all members of the Fire
Department was: “A) Hair must not touch collar; B) Side-
burns must not extend below the ear; C) Mustaches must be
neatly trimmed not extending below the lower lip; D) No
beards allowed.” Hunt was suspended for one year on the
grounds that his hair length and sideburns violated pro-
visions A and B. He contended that such provisions violated
his constitutional rights and asked the Court to order his
reinstatement,

THE BOARD contended that when Hunt became a mem-
ber of the Fire Department, he agreed to abide by its rules,
regulations and by-laws, and that he had no constitutional
right to be a fireman. It also justified the regulation on the
grounds that it ts necessary to create a uniform appear-
ance among firemen of the Department and tn the public
interest.

THE COURT noted that while the Board may promul-
gate such rules and regulations for the effective conduct of
the departments within its district, those rules and regul-
ations are subject to applicable constitutional limitations.
A rule which denies or unreasonably limits a constitutional
right of a public employee is invalid — not because there is
a constitutional right to public employment, but because
the constitutional rights of all citizens, public employees
included, may only be restrained for a reason rationally re-
latea to the public interests which sufficiently benefits the
public interest to justify the infringement of the employee's
constitutional right and for which there exists no other
course less destructive of that right. Just because public
employment may be denied does not mean it may be subject
to unreasonable conditions, or that it may be granted sub-
ject to waiver of the employee’s constitutional rights. Thus,
the Court said that Hunt’s promise to obey Department rules
must be read as requiring only that he comply with rules
not in violation of his constitutional rights, and not as a
waiver of such rights, (Hunt v. Board of Fire Commissioners,
327 NYS 2d 36, Sup. Court, Nassau County.)

WHILE THE COURTS have been wont to Intervene in
eases Involving the military and hair length, such practice
has stemmed from a reluctance to meddle in military mat-
ters on account of its recognized expertise as to what the
requisites for discipline are. On the other hand, the Board,
in its presentation, suggested no analogy to the military situ-
ation. It failed to suggest why such discripline is needed
in the Fire Department or in what way hair style inter-
fered with such need. As previously noted, a compelling reas-
on is required to justify the abrogation of a constitutional
right . The Board failed to meet that burden.

FINALLY, THE Court went on to examine whether
choice of hair style was indeed a protected right under

is such a constitutional right, and justified it under the
First, Ninth, or Fourteenth Amendments, The Court, !n the
Hunt case, held such a right exists as a matter of substan-
tive due process,

THE TESTS for whether or not a substantial enough Jus-
tification exists to regulate hair style would seem to be
based upon factors relating to safety. Had the Board been
able to indieate that excess hair length interfered with safe-
ty, sufficient justification might have been found to allow
the regulation, Similarly, had the Department been able to

Says Court Officers
Needed For Security

Editor, The Leader:

I wish to complain about the
presence of police officers in the
courtroom and the shortage of
uniformed court officers.

I am a uniformed court of-
fleer in the Bronx Criminal
Courthouse at 162nd St. and

Ave. Here we have

what are called ‘house cops’
working in the courtrooms hand-
ling prisoners, They have been
doing this as long as I have been

@ there. Police officers are not
hired to be responsible for the
security of prisoners in the
courtroom. Court officers are

Court of rform numer-
ous duties in the courtroom, One
of our >

the handling of pr

major

duty ls usurped by police officers.
Some of these officers are
light duty and, therefore,
allowed to work as patrolmen
@ but are permitted to work as
court officers, Accused felons
may be desperate and dangerous
yet light duty police officers es-
cort t the halls and

The public demand for the
police to be on the stree

res

Hted in the creation of park-

ing violation agents and police
administrative aides. Police of-
flcers should be preventing
crime and not detailed to work
in the courts

e The Judi nee has
allowed the court of-
fle to dwindle to the point

where there {s a severe security
problem in many of the courts
A contributing factor to this

scarcity of men is the require-
ment that y (90) days pass
before a promoted officer Is re-
placed so as to provide a grace
period for anyone wishing to
return his former position
© the city should have replace-
ments on hand before promo
tons are made and eliminate
the vaccum created by present
procedures
The safety of judges and
others in the court Hes with the

uniformed ¢

urt officers, yet the

City neglects tts responsibility to
provide a sufficient number of
uniformed court officers, We

@ M4 more uniformed court of
fleers and pressure ought to be
brought against those who allow
this inadequacy to continue.

The stereo phonograph that grows with you end
on you. Naturally, it's SONY, The HP215/SS210. For nows
you get a BSR automatic/manual turntable for all 4 record
speeds, all sizes. A speaker system with separate drivers
for bass and treble tones and an amplifier with power to
spare and separate bass and treble controls to make those
drivers work. A built-in selector switch lets you hear
stereo records in one room, in two rooms at once, even in
your own head (with optional stereo headset) For laters
selector switch and input-output jacks to add FM stereo/
FM/AM tuner and tape recorder/player unit when you
want. That’s what's meant by SONY’s forward thinking.

Happiness is getting component quality sound repro-
duction in a compact stereo unit. The HP-610 is SONY's
top of the line model, with advanced engineering that
you would expect to find only In the finest individual
components. For instance: FET front end and solid-state
IF filter in the tuner section for selectivity and sensi-
tivity with low noise and distortion. The all-silicon
amplifier section comes equipped with precision stepped
bass and treble controls; switchable high filter and
Joudness; a tape monitor and speaker selector switch.
The airtight, acoustic suspension, three-way speaker
system comes with a separate speaker for each part of
the frequency spectrum, And the turntable is as fine as
the rest of the system: a Dual professional automatic/
manual turntable with a Pickering micro-magnetic car-
tridge. With this system in your home, you may never

8-track stereo tape cartridge player that changes tracks
automatically or manually and will automatically replay
the entire tepe until you change it, Track indicator lights
and removable storage tray are added features. For listen-
ing to records, there's the BSR automatic/manual turn-
table. And for broadcast music, the solid state tuner

Mental Hygiene Hearing Central Conference’ Meets . )

(Continued from Page 1)
leader likened giving the depart-
ment a lump sum budget $600
millions to handing a dollar to a
diabetic child standing in front
of @ candy store, “As taxpayers
and empliyees who are engaged
in the care of patients, we are
demanding that this money be
spent where it is needed—on the
care of patients with the hope
that many of them will return to
soclety as useful citizens and not
as wards of welfare," she con-
cluded.

Layoff Results

A. Maye Bull, from Gowanda
State Hospital, spock of the dis-
integration of that institution
and the widespread anxiety
among the employees since last
Spring's layoffs and attacked the
closing of the farm, bakery and
butcher shops at the facility, She
spoke of the inefficiency gener-
ated by the reduction of Go-
wanda’s admission area and the
inability of other institutions
charged with the responsibility
to take up the slack,

Ronnie A, Smith, CSEA board
member and an attendant at
Willowbrook State School, sug-
gested to the lawmakers that
they “were wasting their times
at the hearing” and that they
should visit the institutions for
themselves to understand just
how bad the conditions are there.

Other speakers representing
various Mental CSEA Mental
Hygiene groups were William
McGowan, CSEA fourth vice-
president; Roberta Linda Mer-
clo, West Seneca State School;
John Clark and Dr. Jeffrey Bee-
son, Letchworth Village; Wil-
Mam Deck, Marcy State Hospit-

al; Anna M. Bessette, CSEA
board member from Harlem
Valley State Hospital; Joseph

Keppler, Central Islip State Hos-
pital, and Leo Weingartner,
Binghamton State Hospital.

Here is the complete text of
Dr. Wenzl's statement:

“The attention now being
focused on the deplorable con-
ditions that prevail in our State's
mental institutions ts long over-
due.

“While the Ctvil Service Em-
ployees Assn, recognizes that the
State ts having serious fiscal
problems, we, as the representa-
tives of nearly 50,000 employees
in the dozens of mental institu-
tions, also cannot tgnore what
everyone views as a situation
bordering on disaster in these
hospitals and schools.

“Through the news media, the
public ls being made aware of
the near yirtual collapse of basic
care treatment in many of the
larger institutions, For years,
CSEA has consistently advocated
the need for more employees,
and in particular, for more at-
tendaats who wk directly with
the patients around-the-clock
We have constantly opposed the
imposition of new programs and
construction of new facilities at
A cost of millions of dollars, un-
less there were people to imple-
ment these programs and staff
these new facilities

Today, what we have warned
of repeatedly has become a real-
ity, Many programs have folded
or have not gotten off the
ground, and many new multl-
million dollar buildings stand
idle. Mvanwhile, basic patient
treatment—individual attention,
personal hygiene and general
health care—ts in a state of
chaos. Employees are {rustrated

—thelr morale is at its lowest—
because they cannot cope with
the overwhelming problema they
face, In some instances, they
are being maligned—and un-
fairly so—because they simply
cannot, under the circumstances,
meet the needs of the patients.

“Bince Dec. 7, 1970, a State
hiring @reeze has resulted in
thousands of vacancies occuring
at the attendants’ level because
of the high attrition rate in that
series. Only recentiy—in fact,
wihin the last several weeks, has
the State Administration let up
on the freeze in five of the hard-
est hit institutions and allowed
the Department to fill a job
when {it becomes vacant, How-
ever, this development does not
provide for filling the vacancies
created by the thousands of em-

ployees who left since Decem-
ber 1970,
“Governor Rockefeller was

quoted this past Monday in a
television broadcast as saying
that the staff-to-patient ratio
was presently about 6-1, and
that the recent steps he has
taken will lower that ratio to
2% to one. CSEA takes strong
issue with the validity of those
statements, Recent newspaper
and television deatures on con-
ditions in our mental hospitals
and schools show conclusively
and objectively that as many as
60 patients are under the care
of only one attendant.
Unrelated Duties

“You cannot hire an employee
as an attendant, put him on
housekeeping or clerical duties,
and then use him as part of a
staff-to-patient ratio, More than
1,300 attendants today are per-
forming duties unrelated to pa-
tient care.

“The State Administration re-
cently announced that it is pro-
viding funds to hire 1,500 em-
ployees for patient care work In
the next 13 months, This action,
while being a step in the right
direction, will do little to tm-
prove the situation. The hiring
freeze must not only be lifted,
fi those va-
cant positions which are neces-

sary provide, at best, the
minimum of care.
“The State of New York,

which for years has boasted of
its mental treatment program,
has regressed to a point of
disgrace

“The State Administration al-
so has indicated that no more
(unds will be made available to
the Department of Mental Hy-
wlene—that it must operate on
the same allotment as last year.
This ts bad enough, but we must
stop to consider that the cost
of the recently enacted and long
overdue patient care career lad-
der, which will upgrade salaries
and provide promotional oppor-
tunities for approximately 28,-
000 employees in the atiend~
ants’ series, ls to be absorbed
in the present departmental bud-
get allocation, Separate funds
were originally provided for this
much-needed program, and, in
fact, reclassifications, realloca-
tions and career ladders, until
this year, were covered by ap-
propriations in the miscellaneous
section of the Executive Budget,
and not charged against depart-
mental allocations.

Where The Blame Lies
“The department hierarchy ts
not entirely blameless, For years,
its main thrust has been new
programs such as unitization—
the concept of large hospitals

being reorganized {nto smaller
untis—#ach serving | propor-
tloniately smaller part of the in-
stitutton’s total area of respon-
sibility. We have grave reserva-
tlons as to the feasibility of con-
tinuing this progra:n, from both
the patient and employee stand-
point. Our own investigative
committees and staf€ experte,
who have carefully researched
this particular program, have
come to the conclusion that it
should be dropped since it leads
to the creation of too many un-
qualified supervisors and two
few basic care employees, thus
wasting funds on administration
rather than concentrating on
treatment.

“For many years, the depart-
ment has projected to the pub-
He a rosy picture of its broad,
far-reaching innovative pro-
grams; its new facilities; and its
modern equipment. At the same
time, the attendants—the dedi-
cated unsung heroes and hero-
Ines who form the backbone of
the entire program, have, in
large measure, been ignored.
Last Spring during the budget
cutbacks and ensuing layoffs,
finally reacted to the large num-
ber of attendants being laid off.
Purther attrition since then has
caused the department to re-
spond with justifiable alarm to
the fact that the people doing
the work were the ones being
the hardest hit. We only hope
that it ls not too late to reverse
this trend, and that the Admin-
istration and the Department
will place emphasis where it is
needed.

Accreditation Loss

“Angther point to mention is
the subject of accreditation of
State hospitals-and schools, The
Joint Commission on Accredi-
tation, composed of the Amert-
can Medical Assn. and the Amer-
can Hospital Assn., now accred-
{ts hospitals for » maximum of
two years and schedules periodic
reviews of the staffing patterns,
conditions of equipment and the
physical plant to ensure that
they meet prescribed standards,
If the commission finds gross in-
adequacies in staéfing or lack of
certain qualifications among pro-
fessional personnel, particularly
doctors, the residents’ training
program could be rescinded.
More importantly, however, loss
of accreditation could mean a
loss of Medicare payments to the
State from the Federal Govern-
ment—a figure which runs into
the hundreds of millions of dol-
lars. If this occurred, the addt-
tional load on the Mental Hy-
giene budget would be astronomi-
cal. We cannot afford short-
sightedness at the risk of funds
which directly affeot the mental
and physical well-being of thou-
sands of people,

“I have not covered all of
the Issues, because of time and
my unfamillarity with them.
However, your comunittee has
recognized the seriousness of this
critical issue allowing more peo-
ple to testify tomorrow, At that
me, you will hear from our
CSEA employee representatives
from several of the mental hos-
pitals and schools who face these
problems daily, I'm sure that
you will find thelr revelations
most revealing and, no doubt,
shocking, But what they have
to say should be heard by all.

“CSEA realizes the answer ls
not simple and that you as leg
latators are faced with a monu-
mental task.

occasion for things past, present
and future.

Por the present, Charles Ecker,
Conference president, Jed an af-
ternoon-long session on Confer-
ence affairs, which also brought
delegates to the meeting up-to-
date on statewide CSEA activity
when CSEA president Theodore
C, Wenzl spoke. Earlier, Ernest
Wagner, president of the Capital
District Conference and an em-
ployee of the Department of
Audit and Control, conducted a
detailed discussion on retirement,

A new format for the CSEA—
combining the activities of the
legislative and political action
committees — was presented lo-
cally with Thomas McDonough,
statewide first vice-president
who heads the joint committees,
and Richard Tarmey, third vice-
president and head of the pol-
itieal action committee. McDon-
ough sald the support of the
entire membership was needed
more than ever this year if any
gains were to be made through
the Legislature, particularly an
agency shop that would require
all persons working in the four
State units represented by CSEA
to Join the organization.

The future of CSEA was
touched on during a seasion on
restructuring of the Employees
Association. This vital commit-
tee, headed by second vice-pres-
ident A. Victor Costa, will devote

The dedication of civil
servants to the public
welfare was saluted in
greetings from Syracuse
Mayor Lee Alexander.

an entire day to discussion of its
findings at the March meeting
of delegates at the Concord
Hotel, Costa announced, He also
urged members to continue to
send in suggestions to the com-
mittees.
Many Are Honored

The CSEA motto “We Serve"
was given much fecognition
when both the Conference and
the Syracuse chapter honored
many of thelr past presidents,

"Gentlemen, CSEA in behalf
of the 50,000 employees we rep-
resent in the Department of
Mental Hygiene and their pa-
tients, implores you & give the
strongest consideration to these
overriding and serious problems,
and to bring them to the atien-
tion of your colleagues in the
State Legislature,

“Without the necessary funds
to maintain basic patient care at
humane levels, I dare not think
of the consequences. The decl-
mated patient care staff must be
increase, New programs can
walt, Thank you,

‘8 well as Dr. Wenzl and Pan
Kyer, editor of The Leader,
Kyer was toastmaster at an
afternoon luncheon, which fent-
ured the presentation of ailver
plaques to four past presidents
of the Conference in attendance
at the meeting, They were Helen
Musto, Tom Ranger, Mrs. Flor-
ence Drew and Mrs. Clara Boone,

Ernest Wagner, Capital
District Conference pres-
ident, points out some of
the happier aspects of
retirement, a subject on
which he has become a
roving expert for CSEA,

Ecker, who is leaving office in
June, also was honored.

Richard Cleary, president of
the Syracuse chapter, celebrated
the 35th anniversary of the
chapter, with a shower of honors
for persons who, he said, had
contributed to the growth and
success of the chapter, Presented
with engraved silver bowls were
past presidents Joseph A, Mer-
curlo, Jarrett G. Moyer, Dorls
LeFever, Edward J. Killeen,
Raymond G. Castle, who |s also
& past Conference presiden'
Tom Ranger, Peter B. Volmes,
Margaret Obrist, John R, Riley
and Mrs. Mary McCarthy.

Two For The Leader e

Toastmaster Joseph J. Dolan,
CSEA director of county local
government affairs, had two
awards on hand for The Leader.
One went to the newspaper and
another to editor Paul Kyer.
Both were cited for appreciation
for “years of service . .. to the
Syracuse chapter as {t celebrates
{te 35th anniversary.”

‘The final award of apprecia-
tion went to Dr. Wensl, who
briefly addressed the nearly 400@
persons who turned out for the

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, February 22, 1972

Correction Wives Seek
Help On Improvements
In Working Conditions

(Special To The Leader)
ALBANY — Representatives of Women in Support of

State Correctional Employees, Inc,

(WISSCE) traveled to

the capital city last week to seek help from the Legislature
and from the Civil Service Employees Assn. to improve the

working conditions of correction-
al institution employees.

WISSCE, formed by women in
Attica, N.¥., soon after the tragic
prison riot there which claimed
43 lives last September, wants
to make New York State cltt-
wens aware of the correctional
employees whom, they feel, have
been unjustly accused of brutality
toward prisoners.

“We want the public to know
that our men are not responsible
for the conditions in the prisons,”
said Ms, Beatrice Brown, pres-
ident of WISSCE and wife of a
correction officer at Attica, “We
want something done, and we
are not satisfied with the pro-
gress made so far by the Leg-
islature, the Correctional Ser-
vices Department, or the union
that represents most of the em-
ployees — Council 82, American
Federation of State, County and
Municipal Employees.”

While in Albany, Ms, Brown
sald, the WISSCE women v

ed Senate Majority Leader Earl
W. Brydges, testified at a pub-
lic hearing held by the Select

Committee on
stitutions and Programs. od
met with CSEA correctional
specialist Thomas J, Linden

They Get Backing
Linden said, “CSEA ts behind

Correctional In-

Three y

WISSCE all the way, WISSCE
contends, and we agree, that no-
thing 1s being done by Council
82 to help the situation, Most of
the seven, well-publicized de-
mands made by Council 82 when
they threatened a prisoner lock-
in last fall have not yet been
satisfied, although the depart-
ment and Council 82 announced
at the time that they had agreed
to answer and satisfy those de-
mands

“For example,” he continued,
“the safety and riot equipment
asked for has yet to be deliver-
ed, except for helmets. Nowhers
do the cofrectional employees
feel safe, Council 82 has done a
lot of talking, but conditions for
the employees and for the pris-
oners have not improved one bit.
CSEA intends to try to public-
ize this.” Linden sald his words
applied to conditions at all State
prisons, not just Attica.

Ms, Brown said WISSCE wel-
comes membership from any tn-
terested women in the State,
regardiess of their relationship
to to the correctional institu-
tions. “We need support from
everybody to publicize the plight
of the employees,” she said. “We
want something to be done by
those In power.”

the success of its first din-
ner meeting, the State Uni-

derson and Gloss, committee
heads, and Thomas B. Christy,

the Board of Supervisors that
the County plans to make {ts
