PRESIDENT'S CONGRATULATIONS
Ken Pace of the Ft. Stanwix chapter, Civil Service Employees Assn.,
a Mental Hygiene therapy aide at the Rome Developmental Center,
gets a big smile from Theodore Wenzl, CSEA president, for a recent
act of heroism. At a recent outing for patients at Camp Stevens
on Lake Delta, Mr. Pace spotted one of the women patients floating
face down in the water. He ran from the top of a hill to the lake,
swam out and pulled her to shore. He then administered mouth-to-
mouth resuscitation. “She revived in about two minutes,” Mr. Pace
recalled. He said he learned how to administer such aid in a course
he took six years ago. Mr. Pace is chairman of the Ft. Stanwix
chapter's political action committee.

Mr. Kramer—in a presentation
illustrated with 36 charts —

BINGHAMTON Several Broome County employees may have an extra $100 due

Under the terms of the Broome County CSEA unit's pact, the county had agreed to
pay an across-the-board increase
this year of $350 to all employees
earning $5,500 or more and $450

6.6 percent wage increase was
necessary. The panel chairman
had compromised on the issue by
recommending that the increase
be effective as of July 1, The
second fact-finder set Jan. 1 as
the appropriate retroactive date.
The CSEA presentation to the
legislative hearing also attacked
the county's claim that it could
not afford to meet the legitimate
needs of the employees. The
CSEA represents 14,000 county
employees. The chapter also rep-
resents about 8,000 employees of
towns, villages, school districts
and other local government units
in Nassau.
The Board indicated that it
would issue a ruling in about 10
days.
Mr, Flaumenbaum also de-
munded that the Board increase
automobile mileage allowances,
raise the cutoff for overtime pay
and grant paid health insurance
to retirees.

on. This method saved the coun-
ty money, News and Views said,
since it resulted in a smaller
raise for the employee than if
the increment had not been
deducted.
“This year, the county reversed
the procedure which again turn-
ed out to the county's advant-
age,” the article continued, “In
determining who earned less
than $5,500, the county left the
increment attached to the base
salary. If the total salary ‘base
salary plus increment) was over
$5,500, the employee got the
$350 raise if the increment
had been taken off, some em-
ployees' salaries would have
fallen below $5,500, making them
eligible for an extra $100."
Cited was the case of one
employee who discovered that
her 1975 salary inclusive of her
10-year increment brought her
gross wages above $5,500. How-
ever, her 1975 salary minus her
10-year increment brought her
salary below $5,500; yet the
county gave her only @ $350
raise.

CSEA Wins Reinstatement
For 3 Cohoes Employees
ALBANY—Three City of Cohoes Department of Public
Works employees, represented by attorneys for the Civil
Service Employees Assn., have been returned to their jobs
with back pay and fringe benefits following their suspension
in April.
A State Supreme Court judge
upheld the men's contention that
Cohoes Commissioner of Public
Works Arthur Rosecrans violated
provisions of the employment
contract between the city and
the CSEA when he summarily
suspended Walter E. Kelley,
Thomas Herbert and Frank
Obzub for allegedly sitting in a
DPW truck and not attending
to assigned duties.
He also suspended Thomas
Connell, the men’s supervisor
who ts also president of the Co-
hoes DPW unit of CSEA, but re-
instated him to his job four
days later.
The employees contended, and
the court agreed, that they were
suspended before being informed
in writing of the charges against
Horace Z, Kramer, former chair-
man of the Nassau County Board
of Assessors, spoke at a coun-
ty legislative hearing on em-
ployee salary increases. Endors-
ing the CSEA stand that a wage
increase is necessary, Mr. Kram-
er observed: “I cannot believe
that this honorable Board would
agree that an increased tax is
beyond the fiscal capacity of the
average Nassau family.”
Sets Protest
William McMann. the addition-
al $100 was provided to the em-
ployee. News and Views said the
county personnel office conceded
that other employees may be in
the same situation but the office
added it has “neither the time
nor the staff to research the
item further.”
Individuals who feel thelr
raises have been computed in-
correctly were urged to contact
Mr. McMann.

plore possible methods of shar-
ing such services as clinical labs,
pharmacy supplies, vocational
and rehabitational services and
professional and staff education-
al services, said Theodore A.
Bravos, J.N. Adam director.
No reason for the decision was
given, but Stanley Pitman,
Western New York regional di-
rector for the Mental Hygiene
Department, speculated cost and
the likelihood of opposition from
the State Legislature were of
Paramount concern,
them; therefore, they were un-
able to respond to the charges,
When letters of suspension
were distributed to the men the
day following the incident, Com-
missioner Rosecrans informed
them that a hearing would take
place “pursuant to Section 75
of the Civil Service Law.”
The judge, DeForest Pitt of
Troy, ruled that Mr. Rosecrans’
demand for a Section 75 hear-
ing was “inappropriate,” as the
work contract did not provide
for a grievance procedure of
that nature.
The city's failure to respond
within 10 days to a grievance
filed by the men—another viola-
tion of a provision of their em-
ployment contract—“also entitled
the grieving parties to the re-
quested award,” according to the
court.
Marjorie Karowe, an attorney
with the CSEA law firm of Roe-
mer and Featherstonhaugh, Al-
bany, acted as counse] for the
men.
Quick Decision
Seen In Nassau
Increment Suit
MINEOLA —A decision is
expected shortly in a lawsuit
brought this week by the
Civil Service Employees
Assn.'s Nassau County chapten
against the county charging
breach of contract.
‘The action was brought by
the CSEA after Nassau County
Executive Ralph G. Caso untla-
terally decided to withhold pay-
ment of increments to Nassau
employees who earn $25,000 an-
nually or more.
‘The case is to be held in Nas-
sau Supreme Court here. Richard
Gaba, CSEA Long Island Region
I attorney and Leader legal af-
fairs columnist, will present the
union's position before the court.
Irving Flaumenbaum, presi-
dent of the CSEA Nassau County
chapter, expressed confidence in
the chapter's position
“We don't permit this county
to violate the conditions of our
contract,” the Nassau leader de-
clared. “We'll shoot them down
every time they try.”
Mr. Flaumenbaum js also head
of CSEA’s Long Island Region I
and a union vice-president
Mr. Caso withheld the inere-
ments, which were due the first
of the year, in January of 1975
and 1976. The case was first
brought to the Public Employ-
ment Relations Board which
ruled in favor of the CSEA posi-
tion, declaring Nassau County
guilty of an unfair tabor prac-
tee. The suggested PERB solu-
tion, Mr. Gaba said, was addi-
tional negotiation on the issue
This, he added, was felt to be
unproductive and so the union
brought the issue before the Nas-
su Supreme Court
Nassau has a graded salary
plan similar to the one used by
the state for its employees
“Never, since 1938, when it
wont into force, have increments
been withheld, except for em-
ployee poor performance,” Mr
Gaba said.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1976
Mischief In Nassau
HE adjective “unreal” springs immediately to mind when
considering the attitude of Nassau County officialdom
toward county workers.
The situation is this: Nassau employees have been
without a contract since Jan. 1. In attempting to resolve
this situation, the Nassau Civil Service Employees Assn.,
which represents the 14,000 county workers plus another
8,000 employed by villages, towns, school districts and other
governmental entities, has resorted to mediation, impasse
proceedings and the employment of fact-finders. None of
these remedies has worked and we feel the blame should
properly be placed at the door of the county.
Now the matter of a contract — and a wage increase for
Nassau workers — is before the county's Board of Supervisors
as mandated by the Taylor Law. The Board can impose a
one-year contract on the employees. A decision on the issue
is expected shortly.
During fact-finding, two of the fact-finders, including
the impartial panel chairman, said a 6.6 percent wage in-
crease for employees was entirely justified. However, the
position of Nassau County Executive Ralph G. Caso is
that the county cannot afford any boost. This assertion,
we think, was successfully blown out of the water by CSEA
officers, including Nassau chapter president Irving Flaumen-
baum, at a Board legislative hearing last week.
Mr. Caso was previously quoted as saying that Nassau
taxpayers cannot afford the tax increase required to give
county employees a raise. However, Horace Z. Kramer, an
expert in municipal fiscal affairs, in testimony before the
Board declared that the 6.6 percent boost would cost the
average Nassau homeowner only $1.57 a month after taxes.
We think that the best comment to emerge from the
whole imbroglio was this one delivered by Mr. Flaumen-
baum: “Mr, Caso talks about the taxpayers,” the CSEA
chieftain declared. “Who the hell are these people here?”
he asked, indicating CSEAers attending the hearing. “They're
all taxpayers. The county is using us to subsidize the other
taxpayers.”
So true. Mr. Caso appears to be using the hoary ploy
of placing public sector workers in a vacuum to achieve
some measure of political mileage. The impression he seems
to want to make is that, somehow, these workers do not pay
taxes, do not suffer the ravages of inflation, do not need
to eat, house and clothe themselves and their families and
are immune from financial problems. This premise, of
course, is absurd.
Mr. Flaumenbaum has said that if Nassau authorities
decide to freeze employee salaries, a lawsuit appears to be
at least a fair possibility, We feel that there are substantial
grounds for such a suit.
The situation, of course, has the most immediate impact
on Nassau employees. However, the Nassau chapter is the
largest entity — barring the four state Bargaining Units —
in the CSEA. If a pattern of mischief is set In Nassau, with
the employer giving nothing and the employee expected to
take it, can any public sector worker in any section of the
state feel secure?
We think not.

mics, the Democratic Coalition
and the Politics for Change
(Oxford University Press, New
York. 1976)
In a review of the book,
George Daly points out the sense
behind the nomination of Min-
nesota Senator Walter Mondale
as the Democratic nominee, the
designation of Pennsylvania
Senator Richard Schweiker as
the choice of Presidential hope-
ful Rormld Reagan and the pos-
sible renomination of Vice Presi-
dent Nelson Rockefeller on a
Ford ticket.
Mr. Daly is a former news-
Ppaperman who covered the
White House as a national cor-
respondent, the State Capitol in
Albany and the New York City
Hall, He closed his newspaper
career with the New York Herald
‘Tribune.
Excerpts from Mr. Daly's re-
view are printed below
I do not know if Jimmy Car-
ter read Professor Richard L.
Rubin's Party Dynamics, The
Democratic Coalition And The
Politics Of Change, before he
selected Senator Walter Mon-
dale as his running mate, but
after reading this thought-pro-
voking study, it is easy to under-
stand Mr. Carter's decision. For
that matter, it would not be
hard to believe that Ronald
Reagan read the book, asked
for the voting records of the Re-
publicans in the U.S. Senate and
then said the man I want is
Senator Richard Schweiker.
Indeed, one is persuaded, judg-
ing from Professor Rubin's docu-
mentation that the first major
politica] decision made by Presi-
dent Ford—the appointment of
Nelson Rockefeller as Vice Presi-
dent—was still his smartest.
Along the way, Professor Ru-
bin, who teaches political sctence
at Columbia University, demol-
ishes a number of myths. One is
that Democrats leaving urban
areas for the suburbs convert to
Republicanism in larger num-
bers. Not so. The figures are
minimal, but they do vote in
large numbers for those Repub-
Means who adapt themselves to
the socio-economic reforms that
may well have first been ad-
vanced by Democrats.
“The undercutting of labor
leadership support for state
Democrats has been an effective
strategy by some Republican
candidates in Pennsylvania
(Senator Schweiker received the
state AFL-CIO endorsement in
1974) and especially in New
York where Senator Jacob Javits
has made his voting record on
concerns of organized labor all
but indistinguishable from Dem-
ocrats, Nelson Rockefeller, at the
gubernatorial level, had strong
union support in all of his elec-
tion campaigns, and his career
offers in retrospect an almost
larger-than-life example of how
@ candidate may personally alter
the meaning of the political term
“Republican” from the perspec-
tive of labor unionists,” Rubin
declares.
Rockefeller's massive building
and road projects provided him
with a New Deal spender image
among the building trades and
other related unions and his
constant wooing of labor fre~
quently induced other unions to
come to his support in one cam-
paign after another throughout

Arbitration Dispute
The County Executive of Nassau County instituted a
proceeding pursuant to CPLR, Article 78, to review the por-
tion of the award of a public arbitration panel made after
a hearing that directed Nassau County to provide a general
wage increase of 9.5 percent to all members of the bargain-
ing unit, the Patrolmen’s Benevolent Assn. The County
sought review of this determination of the arbitration panel,
claiming that it was not based on substantial evidence. The
facts of the case are as follows:
. . .
IN OCTOBER 1974, negotiations commenced between
Nassau County and the PBA for the contract covering the
1975 calendar year. The major issue was the PBA’s request
for general salary increase. When no agreement was
reached, an impasse was deemed to exist. Mediation fol-
lowed without success, and thereafter the process of fact-
finding was undertaken. The fact-finders’ report concluded
that a general increase of 8.5 percent was warranted. In
reaching the 8.5 percent figure, the report took into con-
sideration the rise in the consumer price index, the per-
centage increase granted to Nassau County Civil Service
Employees Assn. members, and a comparison between the
salary of Nassau County police officers and Suffolk County
police officers,
THE FACT-FINDERS' recommendations were rejected
by both parties. Pursuant to Section 209 of the Civil Service
Law, the salary issue was referred to a three-member public
arbitration panel, consisting of one member appointed by
the County, one member by the PBA, and one member ap-
pointed jointly by the County and the PBA, Hearings were
held on July 15 and 16, 1975, during which no minutes were
taken. The panel awarded the same 8.5 percent increase as
had been recommended by the fact-finder. The County then
sought to vacate the award through an Article 78 proceed-
ing, alleging the panel’s decision was not based on sub-
stantial evidence.
. . .
THE COUNTY ARGUED the panel failed to consider the
financial ability of the County to pay the increase, thus
violating the standards an arbitration panel must follow,
as prescribed by the 1974 amendments to Section 209 of
the Civil Service Law. The Supreme Court, Special Term,
held that the absence of a written record and the failure
of the panel to consider the County's ability to pay made
the determination reviewable. The matter was remanded
to the arbitration panel for the holding of forma! hearings
on a written record and the submission of evidence relevant
to the question of ability to pay.
. . .
AT THESE GS, the PBA presented a well-or-
ganized and sophisticated argument on this issue, Factors
the PBA asked the panel to consider in determining the
County's ability to pay were: constitutional Mmitations on
tax and debts, percentage tax collection, per capita income
of Nassau residents, per capita assessed valuation in Nassau
County, increases in retail sales which generate more sales

On the day before ballots went in the mail for Ulster
County employees to choose their bargaining agent, the
Civil Service Employees Assn. held a rally.
CSEA, which retained its position as bargaining agent
for Ulster employees against a previous challenge two years
ago by the Service Employees International Union, again
called upon its members to preserve their independence by
turning back this latest challenge from the AFL-CIO union.
Ulster chapter 856 president Thomas Phillips presided
over the rally at which he and other chapter officers ans-
wered questions from employees about benefits they have
gained as members of CSEA. They also refuted sundry
charges that the rival union had made in its effort to win
over the employees.
Mr. Phillips and the other officers are themselves sym-
bols of the democratic way in which CSEA functions. Their
slate was elected a year ago in a clean sweep against the
previous officeholders.
“Tf you want to change things,” Mr. Phillips said, “it is
all possible within the structure of our union. I wish those
people who signed the SEIU petition would show as much
interest toward CSEA in its efforts to help the employees.”
Results of the CSEA-SEIU election are scheduled to be
tabulated by the Public Employment Relations Board on
Friday, Aug. 13.

The only non-elected members of the

during Board discussions.
The chairmen, as well as the committee
members, are appointed by and serve at the

at Board meetings, but only on subjects
that are pertinent to their committees.
Their major work is done outside the Board
meetings.
There are 11 standing committee chair-
men: insurance, legal, revision of constitu-
tion and by-laws, retirees, convention, po-
litical and legislative action, grievance, pen-
sion, salary, restructuring and education.
Voting members of the Board are not per-
mitted to serve as standing committee
chairmen. The voting members are the
statewide officers and members of the State
3-Year Auburn Pact
Executive and County Executive commit-
tees.
Standing committees are required by the
union by-laws to meet at least four times
@ year.
Membership of these committees shall not
be less than 7 nor more than 11 persons,
and they must include representation from
each of the six regions and from both the
State and the County Divisions.
Some of the committees, such as legal
and revision of constitution and by-laws,
are required by the nature of their respon-
sibilities, to meet consistently to handle the
press of business. Others, such as convention
and salary, work intensively during particu-
lar periods but maintain a more relaxed
pace between.
Current makeup of the 11 standing com-
mittee chairmanships reflect four local gov-
ernment employees, five state employees
and two retirees,
Has 18% Increase
AUBURN—A spokesman for the Civil Service Employees
Assn. announced a settlement has been ratified by both
parties in contract negotiations between the City of Auburn
School District and the CSEA. The union represents the
Auburn School custodial, bus
drivers and maintenance em-
ployees.
Ron Smith, CSEA field rep-
resentative and negotiator for
the employees, said the three-
year contract became effective
July 1.
“In ight of the current eco-
nomic circumstances, we feel the
new contract offers fair and
equitable benefits that employees
can live with,” Mr. Smith said
The new contract includes a
7 percent wage increase plus in-
crement for the first year, 6 per-
cent increment for the second
year, and 5% percent plus in-
crement for the third year.

Rockland County employees
have been working without a
contract since Jan, 1
The county workers over-
whelmingly rejected the coun-
ty's “final offer” on a contract
last May, and asked for binding
arbitration as a solution to the
deadlock.
“The employees firmly be-
lieved that an independent, neu-
tral third party would be able
to fairly resolve the problem
to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned,” Mr, Mauro said. How-
ever, the county legislators turn-
ed thumbs down on the request
for a neutral arbitration of the

If 30 percent of the members
of the Unit sign the petitions,
the state Public Employment Re-

The CSEA is seeking to meet this
requirement by the end of this

Other benefits provided are
an additional 1% day holiday,
guaranteed minimum death

Also written into the new con-
tract was an increase of $25 for
each longevity increment, three
weeks’ vacation after seven years

Now the union is awaiting a
fact-finder’s report from the
State Public Employment Rela-
ions Board. Meanwhile, the em-
ployees are .trying to keep the
situation in the public eye and
remind people of their plight
while trying to force the legis-
lators to move from what they
feel is an intransigent position.
To help achieve this goal,
‘CSEA leaders plan to appear on
a local radio program, “WRKL
Hot Line,” on Thursday, Aug.
19 at 12:30 p.m. from the WRKL-
AM studios in Mt. Ivy. Explain-
ing the union's position and ans-
wering questions will be Rock-

Mr. Mauro; CSEA Southern Re-
gion III supervisor Thomas J
Luposelio, and field representa-
tive Larry Scanlon. Moderator
Betsy Ramey will permit listen-
ers to telephone the station dur-
ing the hour-and-a-half broad-
cast to ask questions of the un-
jon leaders.
"We intend to continue in-
forming our members, the legisla-
tors and the general public on
our exact position and the dire
economic situation faced by
county workers," Mr. Mauro said.
That's why it ts vital that
every county employee be on
that informational picket line at
6 p.m. on Aug. 19, We must make
it absolutely clear that the em-
ployees stand united”

To take the test, candidates

eligible list, candidates will need
one year of such service.

arrival was bliss unbounded; to
others, the “allowance” was less
than welcome.
Three Albany-area assembly-
men, for example, were among
those who led a fight to reduce
the “lulus” this year but who
qualify for them.
Neil Kelleher (R-C, Rensse-
Jaer), was awarded a “lulu” of
$3,500 and said he is undeckted
as to whether to keep it or give
it to charity.
Clarence Lane (R - Greene,
Columbia) and Clark C. Wemple
(R- Schenectady) were each
given a similar amount.
A fourth Albany-area legisia-
tor, Fred G. Fieki (R-Albany),
said he had asked Speaker Stein-
gut’s office not to consider him
for such payment.
“I made it known to Assem-
bly leaders several weeks ago
that I didn’t want one,” Mr.
Pield said. “I just don’t think
its proper.”
Another prominent foe of the
“Julus” is Assemblyman Andrew
Stein (D-L, Manhattan)
Top “luluer” again this year
is Speaker Steingut who awarded
himself @ $21,000 “allowance.”
Close behind are Majority Leader
Albert Blumenthal (D-L, Man-
hattan) and Minority Leader
Perry Duryea (R-Suffolk) both
with $18,500. Burton Hecht (D-
Manhattan) received $18,000 for
his work as head of the Assembly
Ways and Means Committee.

3 EnCon Staffers Win
Largest Idea $ Award
ALBANY—A $12,000 award — the biggest ever made in the state employee sugges-
tion program — has been approved by the State Civil Service Commission, Victor 5. Ba-
hou, Commission President, has announced.
The award was won jointly by three employees of the State Department of Environ-
mental Conservation who devised
@ system and procedures for the
issuance of “tickets” to indi-
viduals accused of violating the
environmental conservation law
Their suggestion has been put
to use and has resulted in annual
savings to the state, in working
hours and travel expense, estim-
ated at $150,000.
Sharing the award are Lt
John J. Leupp, Chittenango,
supervising environmental con-
servation officer at Cortland;
Robert C. Sinclair, Caledonia,
environmental conservation of-
ficer at Avon, and James K.
Webb, Bolivar, environmental
conservation officer at Olean.
They worked in Avon when they
submitted their suggestion.
* Their winming suggestion de-
seribes a faster, more efficient
land more economical system for
bringing charges against those
hunters, fishermen and other in-
dividuals who are acoused of vio-
lating the environmental conser-
vation law. Formerly, an envir-
onmental conservation officer
who accused an individual of a
violation had to interrupt his
patrol and either escort the in-
dividual to a judge immediately,
or instruct the individual to ap-
pear before the judge at a par-
ticular time and date, In either
event, the officer was required
to appear before the judge with
‘the individual, sign an accusa-
tion statement and attend court,
As @ result of the suggestion,
the officer now merely issues the
individual a summons, or “unt-
form appearance ticket,” and re-
sumes patrol duty at once, The
theket, based om a design con-
tained in the suggestion, is sim-
lan to those used by police for
waffie violauions. Use of the new
system began in 1974, Since then,
the average time required for an
officer to take action on @ viola-
tion dropped sharply, This sav-
ing in time has enabled officers
to devote more than 24,000 ad-
ditions! working hours a year to
patrol duty. Eliminating trips to
court has also cut down on
state car operating expenses
Under the new system, individ-
uals who receive tickets can en-
ter a plea by mail
The state employee suggestion
program is administered by the
State Department of Civil Serv-
ice. Total savings to the state
since the program began in 1946
are nearly $8 million. Until now,
the biggest award ever made
was $6,000, awarded in 1972 to
three state workers who designed
a more efficient navigational
marker light
The winners of the $12,000
award are among 19 state em-
ployees who won a total of
$13,440 in cash awards in July
for money-saving ideas submitted
to the suggestion program. Es-
Umated first-year savings from
these suggestions total $164,179

By THOMAS GILMARTIN
CSEA Coordinator of Retiree Affairs
Success in fulfilling our legislative goals for 1976 has been very
limited, to say the least. We have ended up in the same frustrated
situation as have many other groups in the state who also pushed
hard for desperately needed legislation. Out of thousands of bills
introduced, only 965 were signed into law by the Governor, most
of which were without a price tag attached. It has been an austerity
year, indeed. Nevertheless, next year we must try even harder and
wisely develop a new plan of action.
The cost-of-living supplemental increase for pre-1969 retirees
was re-enacted on July 1 for another year. This “basic” legislation
must be rendered permanent in our future endeavors, so as to avoid
this annual anguish, as even this legislation wobbied uncertainly for
® while. Loss of that benefit for low-pension retirees would have
been disastrous.
Bill 5270-B introduced by Senator John E. Flynn (R-C), for a
cost-of-living increase for more recent retirees and his $8806-A for
the survivor's benefit for pre-October 1966 state retirees never
came up for the Legislature's vote. In planning next year’s program,
the Retirees Statewide Committee will undoubtedly want to re-
evaluate its legislative goals to consider new approaches and priori-
ties for 1977. This determination will be made in the near future
when chairman Nellie Davis assembles her committee.
+ Therefore, this is the time right now for all of our chapters to
discuss legislative goals for 1977, as well as strategy recommenda-
tions for chapter representatives to take to the next statewide
meeting. During this past year the retiree committee accepted
the CSEA legislative and political action committee's recommenda-
tion that retiree legislative goals be reduced from four to two.
In retrospect it could now be said that this probably was not such
& great idea. Certainly nothing appears to have been gained by
doing 80, such as placing the CSEA's lobbyist in a better position to
follow up on CSEA retiree bills.
When it comes to getting something different in the way
of speakers at retiree chapter meetings, some chapter presidents
may wish to follow the example of Nathaniel Ackerman, president
of the New York Metropolitan Retiree chapter. Nat invited repre-
sentatives of the Gray Panthers to address the members at a
recent meeting. Topics touched on included a description of the
Panther organization, its efforts to ease the problems of older
Americans, reasons for supporting the concept of a national health
insurance plan, things they are doing through legislative efforts to
improve sub-standard nursing homes, and numerous other related
subjects, followed by a question and answer session. Chapters any-
where in the state which may be interested in having the Gray
Panthers speak at a meeting should contact the retiree office at
headquarters for help in making the arrangements.
CSEA president Theodore C. Wenzl was the guest last month
on the Channel 6 Cable TV show, “The Marybee Community Forum,”
produced by Mary Bianchini, past president of Rockland-Westchester
Retiree chapter. Those of us who saw the taged show felt that
Dr. Wenz] projected an attractive image of the CSEA to the
viewers in an area where rival unions continue their efforts to
challenge CSEA.

CSEA STRENGTH
IN UNITY
MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
JUNE 1-NOVEMBER 30
Never in the history of our union has it been so
vital to stick together — grow together and share the
load to keep us strong. In these tough times, the
greater the percentage of membership of any county
unit or chapter, the greater the strength at the bar-
gaining table. The greater the percentage of state
employees belonging to CSEA, the greater the
strength of the state bargaining units.
Therefore, we are offering members in good stand-
ing acash incentive to recruit new members. There is
no limit to the number of new members you may sign
up. And while the cash incentive is nice to receive,
the most important factor is the strength you will be
helping to build for you and your fellow worker.
ONE (Member) WILL GET
YOU FIVE ($5)
For each new member you sign up between June 1
and November 30, CSEA will award you $5.00. After
you have signed up the new member he must be on
the payroll for four bi-weekly pay periods or the
equivalent thereof. Many members are planning their
Christmas shopping around this membership drive.
The Christmas Club bonuses for all members signed
up before September 15 will be paid on December
15th. The second payoff, for new members signed
between September 16 and November 30, will take
place on February 15.

for special sign-up cards which have a place to rec-
ord all the necessary information. Send your cards in
as soon as you sign up a new member — and we'll
credit your account with $5.00 for each member
signed up.
We'll keep your account up to date and will return
to you, in writing, a receipt for each new member
you've signed up.
Only CSEA members in good standing as of June
1, 1976, may recruit new members during this drive.
New members must work in a unit of government
represented by CSEA. So we urge you CSEA mem-
bers — go to it—start signing up non-members for
cash in your pocket and security in your future.
NON-MEMBERS SHOULD
HELP SHARE THE LOAD
\f you're a non-member, we ask you to think of
this: sharing the load in these tough times is im-
portant. Legally, we represent you —at the bargain-
ing table — and even in processing grievances. And
we need your support — morally and financially —to
fight the battles ahead. Our dues are most reason-
able for the services provided ....services which
benefit you in many ways.
So help us share the load by signing up with us.
CSEA — the most powerful force in New York State
working for public employees.
