New Budget. Must Provide Raises For State Aides

Rehab Counselor Jobs On Increase, Labor Dept. Says

Despite the current dearth of jobs for college graduates, employment opportunities for qualified rehabilitation coun-selors are expected to skyrocket throughout the 1970's, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

Herbert Bienstock, regional director of the Department of Labor's Bureau of Statistics, re-ported recently that the employ-ment of rehabilitation counselors is expected to jump 72 percent between 1968 and 1&80, to a pro-jected total of 21,000 by 1980. Openings in this fast-growing field are expectea to reach 1,000 per year.

Bienstock cited increasing pop-ulation, vocational rehabilita-tion, and demographic changes as reasons for tlie projected de-mand for rehabilitation person-nel. At present, he noted, the number of counselors being trained is not meeting the an-ticipated requirements of the 1970's.

Educational requirements for these positions are expected to rise, however, with persons hav-ing graduate work in rehabili-tation counseling or related fields expected to find the best prospects. But persons with ex-perience in tfields such as psy-chology, social work or educa-tion will also have an advantage.

Freedom From Fear THE RECENT contract demands of the Transport Work-

ers Union drew the always-to-be-expected cries of dismay from the New York City Transit Authority. It was always thus—even back in the days when labor unions fought to get workers the most basic decent wages and working con-ditions.

OF THE MANY proposals submitted by the TWU, t h e r ^ is one that was completely overlooked and yet, is one that must be considered of great importance, not only for the transit employee, but for the health and safety of the riding public, as well.

THIS ITEM IS one that reflects the feelings of the Transit Patrolmen's Benevolent Assn. which has been fight-ing for ix)lice protection on the City's buses and bus routes. While the need for this vital protection is agreed upon by all—employees, passengers and public officials—our pleas have fallen upon deaf ears. While crime and vandalism on the City's buses increases to crisis proportions, the one one-half million persons who ride the buses are virtually without police protection.

AT THIS TIME, the TWU—recognizing its duty and obligation to its membership—feels sufficiently alarmed to include in its bargaining demands the establishment of Transit police protection on all TA surface operations, and indeed, on all TA facilities.

IT IS A SAD commentary that a concern that should be the proper and sole obligation of the City—adequate police protection for citizens and passengers—must be voiced and fought for by the people most affected and deprived. Ho\ many injured bus drivers and passengers must be taken hospitals before the City and the TA realize their failure and act?

IN THE COURSE of representing some 3,200 Transit policemen, we have visited bus garages and discussed the problem with drivers, supervisors and other surface trans-portation officials. Their reports of shocking vandalism, rock-throwing, unruly youths and destructive and vicious felons daily fill the files of the police and TA officials. Last year alone, vandalism on the City's buses cost the TA— and ultimately the riders and taxpayers—more than three-quarters of a million dollars, most of it for repair of broket^ll glass windows.

NOW, IT MUST be remembered that the City is charged with providing proper and adequate police protection for all our citizens. This duty and concept was carried through when New York State—under the Public Authorities Law— created the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Under the law, the MTA and its subsidiary, the Transit Authority, is mandated and must provide police protection—equal to that of municipal police protection—on all of its facilities.

THIS LEGAL provision—clearly being neglected—can provide little comfort to the 378 persons who were reported, injured last year because of vandalism involving buses. N o ? ^ can it be of any relief to the countless others who failed to report injuries or harassment, discomfort and fear while traveling on the surface bus lines of the city.

WE COMMEND the TWU for displaying a deep concern for the health and welfare of its members—and at the same ^time, expressing concern for all New Yorkers being deprived of their lawful right of freedom from fear.

At No Loss In Pay

OER Rules To Retain MH Farm Emptoyees

ALBANY—All employees of farms run by the Mental Hygiene Dept. at various State institutions will be retained at other jobs at their respective institutions at no loss of pay, despite the phasing out of the farms, the Civil Service Employees Assn. said last week.

A CSEA spokesman reported that after a series of protests, picketing, and individual griev-ances filed by the CSEA chap-ters at the 11 State institutions which had farms, the grievance was brought to the fourth stage and a hearing was conducted by the Office of Employee Rela-tions. CSEA represented all 11 chaptei-s collectively at the hear-ing.

CSEA contended, according to collective negotiating specialist Robert C. Guild, that the closing out of the farms and termina-tion of some 100 farm employees was a violation of the CSEA-Statc contract provision which states that there shall be no loss of present jobs by permanent employees as a result of the State's exercise of Its r igh t . to contract out for goods and ser-vices.

"Each farm employee will be retained at another position at

his or her Institution," Guild said, "and without a loss in pay. We are gratified that our case has been upheld."

Guild and CSEA assistant counsel James Featherstonhaugh represented the employees at the hearing. CSEA chapter president Ray Pritcliard of Rome School was present as an observer.

"Although the matter is now settled to our satisfaction, since all the employees will have jobs with the same Institutions," Guild said, "CSEA is still puzzled by the State's action In closing out the farms. The farms were all self-sustaining and many made a profit for the State. They provided products such as eggs and milk to their own in-stitutions and those nearby. Now the State will have to contract out for those products, which In CSEA's opinion will probably cost the taxpayers more money in the end."

Mental Health Society Aide Assails Rochester State Personnel Lacks

(From Leader Correspondent) ROCHESTER—Robert J. Lerner, director of the Mental Health chapter of the Health

Association of Rochester and Monroe County, tlie only non-treatment agency in the County dealing with mental health and a private agency not coi-mected with the State or local government, said that because of personnel shortages at Rochester State Hospital, patients cannot be provided with the kind of treatment they need and the kind of sanitary condi-tions necessary cannot be main-tained.

"Because geriatric patients need constant care and are not getting it, more of them will die sooner," he declared and said he's "been complaining ever since the State Legislature began cutting the budget."

Attica Wives Start Organization To Publicize 'Human Concerns'

ATTICA—Wives of Correction Department employees at the Attica Correctional Fa-cility have started an organization to boos t the lot of prison employees.

The group, formed spontaneously in the wake of the September rebellion at Attica and the ensuing international publicity, wants, in the words of the president, Mrs. Donald Brown, to "work In the interest

cerns" of prison employees. William Dugan, president of

the Civil Service Employees

Raymond Heckel ALBANY—Theodore C. Wenzl,

president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., last week ex-pressed "deep regrets" over the death of Raymond A. Heckel, administrative finance officer for the Dept. of Mental Hygiene.

"Mr. Heckel was a longtime active member ol CSEA," said Wenzl. He was a past president of the Albany Mental Hygiene chapter of CSEA, and served on the union's Statewide salary committee for several ,years.

Born In New York City, Mr, Heckel had lived In Delmar for the past 22 years. He served from 11M2-1945 In World War n , as a member of the Nathan-iel Adams Blanchard Post, Amer-ican Legion, and also a member of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church In Elsmere.

Survivors li^clude Mrs. Heckel, the former Lillian H. Hardy; his daughter, Mrs. James A. Tranl of Williamsvllle; and his sister, Mrs. William Perdock, of Wood-haven, Long Island.

D e S i s t o C h o s e n Governor Rockefeller has an-

nounced the recess appointment of Prank A DeSlsto, Yonkers, to the Board of Visitors of Letch-worth Village. He succeeds Dr. Howard W. Potter, whose term had expired. The r.ew term runs to Dec. 31. u r n .

Assn. at Attica, expressed sup-port for the wives' organization.

The wives, dubbing themselves Women in Support of State Cor-rection Employees, hope to spread their organization to wives of husbands working In prisons throughout New York State.

"We have been In contact with wives at other institutions and have their support," Mrs. Brown said In revealing that 25 wives from Attica have started the or-ganization.

To Erase Misconceptions "We want to see that our men's

rights are protected," she said. "We want to erase many of the misconceptions about tlie De-partment of Correction that have generated over the years.

"We feel that we must con-tinue this work even after the notoriety of Attica subsides. We are circulating petitions recom-mending a 10-point program to the Rockefeller Administration and the Legislature.

"We think also that once a man Is given a job as a prison superintendent he Is more qual-ified to run the prison than a federal judge. Some court rul-ings have tied the hands of those charged with enforcing the laws.

"At a recent meeting with Commissioner (Russell G.) Os-wald, we discussed our program."

The Corrections Commission-er's advice, Mrs. Brown said, was to "get an organization formed at every correctioiial la-oiUty."

would like you to believe that they did," he said. "And Gov. Rockefeller went along with the Legislature, saying cut the bud-get at any cost, even people's lives," Lerner added.

He said that Dr. Harold C. Miles, director of the Monroe County Board of Mental Health, submitted a minimal, standpat County mental health budget to the County Legislature but that County Manager Gordon A. Howe slashed It by 12 percent. If Howe's cuts are allowed to stand, there will be even fewer mental health services here next year, Lerner said.

"Local agencies will have to cut back, which will mean that more people will have to be moved into the State hospital, which will compound the prob-lem," he stated.

Rochester State Hospital Ls now operating with a 30 percent vacancy factor; that Is, with only 851 of the 1,100 staff it had three years ago. Except for a short emergency hiring thaw In September, the hospital has not hired any new employees since December 1970, according to Robert Conley, the liospital's deputy director. He said fourteen employees retired between April 1 and September 1 because of dissatisfaction with - their jobs. Instead of the attrition rate lev-eling off, the hospital is In a worse predicament than It had expected even "in view of the

hiring freeze. More Injuries Up

Because of the staff shortages, Conley said, employees suffer more on-the-job accidents now. More are attacked by patients. Often a single attendant must restrain a patient so that they are more likely to get hurt.

From 75 accidents in Febru-ary, the number doubled to 154 in July. In the geriatric units, both men and women employees have suffered an increased num-ber of accidents in the process of lifting patients alone, without necessary help. An employee is more likely now to find himself receiving disciplinary action from the hospital.

Training also Is not adequate because of supervisory staff shortages. Fewer supervisory personnel also means a lower level of maintenance. Treatment concepts originally planned as part of unitization have fallen by the wayside, the team con-cept is falling back Into disci-pline specialization, staff mem-bers are not plentiful enough to perl'orm' therapeutic needs, in-service training has been curtailed or drastically reduced and staff members cannot be spared to visit and form working relatlorihips with mental health centers. And the worst long range effect Is that the credi-bility of the State Mental Hy-giene Dept. as a provider of job security has suffered.

— From Construction Worker to Economist

Thousands of Overseas Jobs Available In Many Career Areas

Federal employment opi>ortunitles overseas are found In almost every occupation, from construction worker to economist. While generally stressing hard-to-find profession-als, the agencies sometimes need clerical and administrative personnel also.

Tin Alaska, Hawaii and U.S. territories, most jobs are filled through civil-service exams by the local labor market. When the U. s . needs staffing at a foreign-based installation, the local labor market is often used In hiring as part of an agree-ment to help that country's economy; that is considered ex-cepted service.

Generally, however, technical and administrative posts employ U. S. nationals. Career employ-ees are frequently assigned to such posts by transfer from their home bases. The Department of Defense, the largest American agency employing overseas, uses this method.

An estimated 60 Nationwide exams are held to €ill these vari-ous openings. Exams cover such areas as business and econoAiics, engineering and scientific, medi-cal and social fields. Educators and tradesmen are also in con-stant demand.

Interested persons should specify the appropriate area and write to: U. S. Civil Service Com-mission, Washington, D.C. 1^415. The local Commission office is located at 26 Federal Plaza, New York 10007.

Applicants should observe that some positions are excepted from civil sei-vlce status: For-eign Service titles, dependents' school teachers, and most inter-preter and translator jobs, for Instance. Such vacancies are filled directly through the ap-pointing agency.

A thumb-nail sketch of the agencies doing tlie hiring and their special needs has been compiled. Write directly to these agencies for details of the up-to-date liiring picture.

State Pay Raise GOVERNOR ROCKEFELLER a n d t h e l eade r s of t h e s t a t e

Legislature are issuing dire warnings almost daily on the fiscal crisis faced by the State, and we agree that the situation is grave, indeed.

Nevertheless, there appears to be some degree of brink-manship here through overstatement, especially in the liberal use of the word "bankrupt." Common sense tells us that the politicos must soften up the public for a package of new taxes and, probably, less State aid, but experience tells us that part of the softening up is also a diversion to avoid granting public employees pay and pension adjust-ments that must come to keep civil servants from economic disaster.

Public employees in the State won't even get any bene-fits—presuming they are granted—until next April. This means that they are carrying the full brunt of the inflation-ary-spiral of the last two years right now. Employees in the private sector, in the main, have won pay packages that allow them to keep up; not so, the public employee.

No matter what happens, the State's solution to budget problems must include a pay raise for State workers, whose budget problems are every bit as severe as those of government -if not worse!

Social Security Questions & Answers Q. My regular einploj*cr de-

ducted social security contribu-tions from my pay until my earnings reached $7,800. I also worlted part time for another company and they withheld so-cial security contributions on the $3,000 I earned with them. Since I paid the maximum con-tributions in my regular job, was my part-time employer correct In taking social security contri* butions out of my pay?

A. Yes. Each of your employ-ers must withhold social security contributions on the first $7,800 paid you in a year. However, you can claim the excess social security contributions you paid as a credit against your income tax or as a refund at the time you file your Federal income tax return.

Q. Even though I am 66 years old, I am still working full time. My friends told me that I should find out about my social security retirement benefits. Should I do this when I'm still working?

A. Yes, for several reasons. Even tliough you are still work-ing, you might be eligible for some social security checks. It all depends on your earnings. And, you could be missiiig out on valuable protection under the Medicare program.

Q. 1 just started working and paying into social security. Can you tell me how long a persor. must work under social security to be eligible for benefits Mt re-th'ement age?

A. Anyone starting his or her working career now will be fully

insuvoHi for retirement benefits after 40 quarters (10 years) of work under social security. But don't forget that younger work-ers are also protected by social security disability and survivors insurance before they have work-ed that long.

Q. A woman who helps me with my cleaning every week also works in several other homes. She says that since one of her employers is reporting her wages for social security I do not need to report what I pay her. Is this true?

A. Not necessarily. If you pay her $50 or moi'e in a calendar quarter of the year, you are re-quired by law to report her wages and to send in the social se-curity oontilbutions — no mat-ter how many of her other em-ployers may also be reporting her wages. Any social security benefits payable to her in the future Mill be based on a record of all her wages reported during her working years.

Q. My wife and I receive a combined monthly social security check. She plans to visit our daughter for several months and will be away from home. Can my wife get her benefit in a separate check?

A. Yes, she can. Your wife should call or visit her social security office to arrange to re-ceive her Qheck separately at your daughter's address. How-ever, she should be sure to notify the social security office when she returns home.

Don't Repeat This! (Continued from Page 1)

tors tha t have not yet emerged. The special session of the Leg-

islature tha t will be convened to deal with the fiscal crisis is likely to become a marathon session that will simply merge into the regular session sched-uled to open in January. The issues tha t will confront the legislators are complex and are unlikely to be resolved in a neat, tidy, short special session.

Governor Nelson A. Rockefel-ler disclosed the full dimensions of the crisis when he publicly announced that the State is faced with a total budget deficit of $1.5 billion in the current and coming fiscal years. He grimly described the State's financial picture as on a precarious perch of "bankruptcy" — a political epithet used typically by the op-position party to describe an in-cumbent administration. In or-der to bridge this budget gap, the Governor will have no re-course but to recommend a com-bination of increased taxes and budget cuts. Since almost two-thirds of the budget appropriates funds for education and for local governments, those areas are likely to suffer two-thirds of the State retrenchment program.

Trouble In Assembly The recommendations that will

be made by the Governor will face relatively smooth sailing in the Senate, where the Senate Ma-jority Leader exercises firm but gentle control over his delega-tion. The major battle will take place on the Assembly floor, where the Republican contingent is more volatile and more prone to run off in different directions. Moreover, Assembly Speaker Perry B. Duryea, Jr., a prospec-tive candidate for Governor, has demonstrated a substantial de-gree of independence of the State administration in fiscal matters. In all of this. Senate Mmority Leader Joseph Zaretzki and Assembly Minority Leader Stanley Steingut will be occu-pants of cat-bird seats, since it will be Republican responsibility to muster majority votes for the new fiscal programs.

First Moves Tlie political sparring is al-

ready well under way. The Gov-ernor called a well-publicized meeting of leading County offi-cials to give them a detailed pic-ture of the stark realities that loom over the horizon. Mayor John V. Lindsay called a meeting of the "Big Six" mayors and county officials to warn against any cuts in State aid to local-ities. Both the Governor and the Mayor are calling on Congress to move ahead on Federal rev-enue sharing progi-ams.' This may be nothing more than an exercise in scapegoating, since the Federal budget may turn up with a $25 billion deficit.

Cuts in State aid appropria-tions for local governments and for education raise their own special problems, since these government levels are financially hard pressed. Nassau County was obliged to increase its sales tax from six to seven percent. Property taxes in Albany are slated for a whopping 64 per-cent increase. Many school dis-tricts are on austerity budgets and are threatened with strikes by teachers.

The Arbitration Process AS THE USE of arbitration for the final step in a con-

tract grievance procedure becomes more common and ac-cepted practice, we must know more about the arbitration process and its legal Implications and limitations. (See 9/7/71 Leader article). A recent case in Kings County Sup-reme Court emphasized the proposition that where a labor agreement so provides, the decision to proceed to arbitration for an employee grievance rests solely with the union. That case also pointed out that an employee represented by a union for the purpose of collective negotiations is bound by those negotiations and must accept that which is in the resulting agreement. Goldin v. Board of Education, 342 NYS 823.

IN THAT CASE, a New York City school teacher, who was granted a teaching license without a baccalaureate de-gree, made application after several years of teaching for a second salary differential increase. The collective bargain-ing agreement provided that such a teacher needed 60 com-pleted semester hours of approved study beyond those.which had previously been accepted by the Board of Examiners as the equivalent of a baccalaureate degree. The teacher claim-ed that under a different clause in the agreement, it was-not necessary to have the 60 additional credits in order to ob-tain the next salary differential increase.

THE LABOR agreement also contained detailed language pertaining to grievances and arbitration. I t was clear from the contract that the union and the Board of Education had agreed to treat arbitrators' decisions as binding pre-cedents. In this case, the union refused to take the teacher's case to arbitration because in a previously decided grievance on similar facts, a decision had been rendered against the union. The court pointed out that an employee cannot avail himself of the arbitration procedure provided for in the col-lective bargaining agreement where the contract granted such right only to the union and the employer. In addition, the court said that since the teacher seeks the benefits of a collective bargaining agreement, she is also bound by all its terms which may have been negotiated for the overall bene-fit of the employees in the bargaining unit.

IT IS A GENERAL legal proposition that courts and judges do not decide or rule on matters before them which are not necessary in order to decide a case. In another re-cent case decided in the Erie County Supreme Court, the Board of Education petitioned the court for a stay of an arbitration which had been requested by the Teachers' As-sociation under its collective bargaining agreement with the Board. The court explained that under the arbitration pro-visions of the Civil Practice Law and Rules, the court could stop the arbitration only on certain very limited grounds— if there was no valid agreement to arbitrate, if the agree-ment had not been complied with, or the claim is barred by the statute of limitations.

IN THIS CASE, there was no claim that the agreement to arbitrate was invalid. It was contained in the contract between the association and the Board, and there is ample statutory authority for such an agreement. Sec. 209 CSL and Sec. 1709 Education Law. The association had complied fully with all the preliminary grievance steps prior to requesting arbitration and the claim was very recent.

The court concluded with that often-stated rule of law that where a party moves to stay arbitration, the court does not pass upon the merits of the case, but merely on those matters necessary to determine whether the matter is prop-erly the subject of arbitration. Board of Education v. Grand Island Teachers' Association, 324 NYS 2d 717.

that adverse public reaction to new taxes and budget cuts will help them capture control of the State Legislature next November, a circumstance that will impair the gubernatorial aspirations of Speaker Duryea but may ad-vance those of Lieutenant Gov-ernor Malcolui Wi l^n , who will

characteristically do yeoman be-hind-the-scenes work for the Governor's fiscal program but he will not personally be involved in the direct line of fire.

From whatever angle one ap-proaches the fiscal crisis, it is clear tha t a new alignment oX political forces is in the offing.

(Continued from Pase 1) balancing the State's troubled fiscal situation.

He pointed out that the firings that did take place have put State services at an absolute oper-able minimum and that "the danger level has now been reached in terms of working, personnel."

Wenzl said that the State is fully aware that it cannot cut any more personnel from the pay-roll. At the same time, he declared that it would be "immoral" for the State to ask presently em-ployed workers to go without a pay raise in order to help balance the budget.

"When the United States government recog-nizes that the impact of inflation is so strong that it must intervene, imagine the impact of the last two years on civil servants who are bound by con-tracts not to get any pay adjustment until April 1 of next year at the earliest," Wenzl declared.

The CSEA president said that the Employees Association demands were equitable in terms of what has happened to the national economy.

The salary demands of the CSEA—and illustra-tions of what they would do—follow.

STATE SALARIES SALARY DEMAND NO. 1—A 15 percent across-

the-board salary increase for all State em-ployees represented by CSEA as well as those designated as management-confidential.

Explanatory Note: The effect of this demand is to provide a 15 percent salary increase for all State employees represented by the CSEA in positions both allocated and not allocated under Section 130 of the Civil Service Law. It in-cludes positions designated as management and confidential since most of such positions are allocated under Section 130 and are similar to or identical with the title structure of other positions not designated as management and confidential. This demand would amend the State salary schedule, effective April 1, 1971, by increasing each step in each grade by 15 percent. The salary increase herein demanded is to be effective on April 1, 1972.

* * •

SALARY DEMAND NO. 2—Include in a nego-tiated salary agreement a cost of living escala-tor clause based on the New York-Northeastern New Jersey Consumer Price Index covering all items (1967-100) 1971 revision published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Depart-ment of Labor. We recommend that the escala-tor clause be computed on index-salary rela-tionships using the index for the month during which our contract commences as the base in-dex. Adjustments should be made semi-an-nually on April 1 and October 1 of each fiscal year.

E.vphniatoru Note: The Consumer Price Index for the New York-Northeastern New Jersey area, covering all items (1967-100) 1971 revision published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor for the month of April 1972 would be used as a base and to determine index-salary relationships.

Illustration: Assuming that the Consumer Price Index, referred to in the previous sentence, was 126.9 for the month of April 1972, and assum-ing that the average State salary at that time was $8,900, then the index-salary relationship would be $8,900 divided by 126.9, or $70.13. This means that every point in the Consumer Price Index would be worfh $'<0.13. Thus, for each point increase in the index, an escalator adjustment in State salaries should be made in the amount of $70.13 on an annual basis. Such adjustments should be made semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each fiscal year dur-ing the life of the contract.

« * • SALARY DEMAND NO. 3—That the CSEA take

all necessary steps to guarantee the payment of all increments contained in the State salary schedule to all employees by removing present statutory limitations which have caused a loss of increments because of negotiated flat dol-lar minimum pay increases.

Explanatory Note: Present statutory limitations prevent many State employees whose positions are allocated under Section 130 of the Civil Service Law, from receiving all of their serv-ice and longevity increments. Section 130 and any other appropriate statutes should be amend-ed to permit the granting of all increments contained in the salary schedule to each eligible employee in addition to any negotiated pay in-creases.

* • •

SALARY DEMAND NO. 4—Provide an addition-al longevity increment for each five years of service af ter an employee has reached the maximum (f i f th year rate) of his salary grade.

Explanatory Note: This demand requires an amendment to the State salary schedule con-tained in Section 130 which would add an ad-tional longevity increment for each five years of service in grade beyond the present extra longevity increment which is now available af ter completion of ten years of service at the maximum of each salary grade.

* + •

SALARY DEMAND NO. 5—Continue and in-crease to $6,500 the minimum annual salary for all State employees who have completed 26 bi-weekly payroll periods of service in full pay status.

Explanatory Note: This demand requires an amendment to Section 130 of the Civil Service Law and should include proportionate adjust-ments for permanent incumbents in part-time and seasonal positions.

SALARY DEMAND NO. 6—Continue and in-crease the locational pay differential for the nine counties in the Metropolitan New York Area and Monroe County to $500 annually, ex-tending this benefit to part-time employees.

Explanatory Note: This demand requires an amendment to Section 130 of the Civil Service Law which would continue locational pay dif-ferentials in the counties where they now exist, increasing such differential to $500 annually and covering in part-time employees. * • +

SALARY DEMAND NO. 7—Continue and in-crease the present inconvenience pay differ-ential to $600 annually, extending this benefit to part-time employees.

Explanatory Note: This demand requires an amendment to Section 130 of the Civil Service Law and would increase the present inconven-ience pay differential to $600 annually, cover-ing in part-time employees. '

* * * SALARY DEMAND NO. 8—Provide severance

pay to employees with one or more years of continued service whose employment is term-inated because of the abolition of positions as follows, in addition to any accrued vacation pay that may be owing to the employee: One year through five years—4 weeks pay Six years through ten years—8 weeks pay Seven years or more—12 weeks pay Also provide that an employee upon retirement shall be granted severance pay on the basis of one day of severance pay for each day of un-used sick leave accumulation. Severance pay shall be computed on the basis of work days rather than calendar days.

Explanatory Note: The four weeks, eight weeks.

or twelve weeks .severance pay, whichever the case may be, would be paid on a regular bi-weekly basis and would terminate when the ^/jM laid off employee was rehired or at the ex-piration of his number of weeks of eligibility based on his years of service, whichever occurs f irst . The demand with respect to severance pay upon retirement is self-explanatory.

+ • •

SALARY DEMAND NO 9—Negotiate an agree-ment that the State will negotiate salary mat-ters which would apply to specific groups of ^Pll State employees or a specific situation on a bargaining unit basis—such as hazardous pay for certain occupations, additional pay for aca-demic achievement, additional pay for varia-tions in dollar volume of contracts supervised by engineers, etc.

Explanatory Note: In our last round of nego-tiations with the State leading to our current contracts, no salary matters could be nego-tiated at the bargaining unit level. Since sal-ary matters, such as those used as illustrations ' above, affect specific groups of State employees rather than all State employees it is appropri-ate that such matters be deemed negotiable items in unit negotiations. (

* * •

SALARY DEMAND NO. 10—Extension of mini-mum annual salary increases provided by Sec-tion 12 of Chapter 158 of the Laws of 1970 will be applied to each employee hired on April ^ 1, 1971, or later and in full time employment ® status as of March 31, 1972, as well as exten-sion of the minimum annual salary increases granted effective April 1, 1970, October 1, 1970, and April 1, 1971, and any negotiated general salary increase for 1972 will be applied to the resulting annual salary of such employee.

Explanatory Note: This demand would adjust the annual ra te of compensation for employees who entered State service during the fiscal year commencing April 1, 1971, to the rate of com- # pensation that such employees would be en-titled to receive on April 1, 1972, had such en-trance occurred on March 31, 1968.

OVERTIME PAY OVERTIME PAY DEMAND NO. 1—Provide

that all work in excess of the negotiated work day and in excess of the negotiated work week shall be considered overtime work and shall ^ be compensated for at the rate of double the employee's normal rate of pay, except for holiday premium pay as presently provided.

Explanatory Note: At the present time eligible employees receive overtime for work in excess of 40 hours at the rate of time and one-half. This demand will provide overtime for work in excess of the work day (71/^ or 8 hours) as well as the work week (37'/o or 40 hours) at the rate of double time.

* • • —

OVERTIME PAY DEMAND NO. 2—Provide cash payment for overtime for all employees, except managerial policy making employees, and repeal the statutory provisions which auth-orize the Director of the Budget to exclude cer-tain titles from the provisions requiring such cash payment for overtime work.

Explanatory Note: This demand will provide over-time to all employees except those who are con-sidered management. At the present time, under ^ Section 135.2 of the rules and regulations of the Budget Director, certain titles are excluded by the criteria as established by the Director of the Budget. This Section 135.2 will have to be amended.

» • • OVERTIME PAY DEMAND NO. 3~Prov ide

the employee with the option of deciding wheth-er he will accept cash payment or compensa-tory time off for all overtime worked. ^

Explanatory Note: This demand will provide em-ployees with the same option as the employeea now have regarding holiday pay,

Fellow Employee Defends Mrs. Duffy's Fight For Mental Hygiene Standards

An attack upon the president of the Pilgrim State Hospital chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. has been vigorously rebutted by a fellow CSEA member at the Hospital. Both the attack and the response appeared in the Hospital's monthly publication.

r

Pilgrim Press. The attack on Mrs. Julia Duf-

fy's actions was made by the Catholic chaplain at Pilgrim State, the Reverend Thomas S. Foi'ker, who accused her of seek-ing the dismissal of Dr. Henry Brill, director of Pilgrim State. In addition, he said that patient care had deteriorated because of sloppy performance on the part of employees.

To this, Mrs. Duffy was quick to point out that in her press conference she had called for the resignation or removal of State Commissioner of Mental Hygiene Alan Miller, but that the director of Pilgrim State was never mentioned.

She said the press conference had been called to point out to taxpayers how badly the pa-tients are faring due to mis-management by the Department of Mental Hygiene and how em-ployees are being overworked and injured due to inadequate staffing.

Praises Mrs. Duffy Alfred O, Carlsen, grounds de-

partment representative at the Hospital, responding to the arti-cle in the Pilgrim Press by the chaplain, said that "we have found her to be a kind, sensi-tive woman, loaded with compas-s ic . for her fellow man. This woman is truly outraged at the gross injustices existing. . . . We have only one Julia Duffy to fight for us."

As the Mental Hygiene repre-sentative to the CSEA Board of Directors from the Metropolitan and Long Island areas, Mrs. Duffy has pulled no punches in speaking her mind, as exempli-fied by her call for Dr. Miller's resignation.

It comes as no surprise then that "Ishe herself should be a center of controversy, as evi-denced by the article by the chaplain and the equally forceful response in her defense.

Both the article and the letter are printed below. The first is that of the Reverend Father Forker.

Father Forkcr's Article "There was a song popular

several years ago which had as Its refrain, 'There are going to be some changes made.' That prediction certainly has come true.

"Over the past year or so, the number of retirements of key personnel lias been very great. People who worked here for years and who helped to con-tribute to tlie overall spirit of the hospital have retired. On every level, from the center girl, who knew where everything was and who kept all the proper foru^ filled out and turned in, to the chief supervisors who made it their business to know all about every employee so that each was treated fairly yet firm-ly to acliieve the desired end of good patient care, there have been retirements.

"Now the closing of the Edge-wood Division 1« going to make

for more changes. Established orders and procedures will have to be completely reworked. A new 'pecking order' will have to be discovered.

"But the greatest change is the evolution of the Civil Ser-vice Employees Assn. as a labor union with such pretention to power that the local president does not hesitate to give in-terviews in which it is stated that she intends to force her will on the Department of Men-tal Hygiene, and in which she states that she will not rest until she has forced our director, Dr. Brill, into retirement or res-ignation. Indeed, these are changes.

"So a situation has come about in which the mantles of author-ity which were worn so casually and so easily for many years have fallen on new shoulders. New hands will be instruments of power. Now we will have to see how things work out.

"We have always had a good spirit here at Pilgrim. Patient care was something to brag about and the relationships be-tween the various levels of staff were, in my opinion, very fine. Indeed, various pressure groups had to dig a great deal to find things to complain about.

'Wheel Of Change' "The wheel of change has put

into the hands of those of us who are here now the opportu-nity to shape things anew. What will we produce? On the one hand, there seems to be a slack-ness setting in; people not re-porting for work and performing sloppily, a seeming apathy on the part of many supervisory positions. On the other hand, the great movement of patient popu-lation makes necessary an even greater effort on the part of all to see that each patient is prop-erly cared for.

"The past had its chance and we were proud of it. What the future will be depends on each one of us who is here now. Let us hope that the changes that come about as a result of our actions and attitudes will reflect credit on each of us, and result in ever-better patient care and ever-improved and happy rela-tionships between all the em-ployees and staff."

In response to this. Pilgrim State employee Carlsen wrote:

"Relative to your article in the November 1971 issue of the Pilgrim Press entitled "From the Chaplain's Desk"— disagree with your statement—"Mantles of au-thority (and so forth) have fall-en on new shoulders."

"In reality what has happened — the Pilgrim State socio-eco-nomic scene Is finally coming out of the Dark Ages, and is now slowly, but surely, taking its rightful place in the up-to-date labor-management scene. In short, Pilgrim and the New York State Department of Mental Hy-giene are thirty years behind the times. And you know it!

tide, "New hands wield the in-strument of power." I don't quite see it your way. It appears to me you could have written—"At long last, labor has finally been recognized at the bargaining table."

"You also state in your arti-cle, "What will we produce?" Should not the question be, "How shall we, together, remove the inequities?" For example, some workers are compelled to receive supplemental welfare in addition to their State salary in order to live. What about the 'out-of-title' work employees are forced to do? I could go on and on citing many other inequities; space does not permit to name them, but I ain positive you know about them.

"Have you ever taken the time to analyze the modus operandi that moves president Julia Duffy of the Pilgrim chapter of the CSEA?

'Moved To Tears' "Well, I and other employees

have. We found her to be a kind, sensitive woman, loaded with compassion for her fellow man. This woman is truly outraged at the gross injustices existing, not only at Pilgrim, but also in the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene, and do you know—we have seen her moved to tears at the apathy, not of the workers, but rather at the actions of tlie hierarchy existing in the structure of the New York State Department of Mental Hy-giene. We have only one Julia Duffy to fight for us—we know that Christ lives in her heart seven days a week—not only on Sundays. God bless her!

"Even though I disagree with your article. I don't have to be a disagi-eeable person. In this light I suggest that you get in touch with the New York chap-ter of the Association of Catholic Trade' Uiilonlstc, 327 Lexington Ave.. New York City, and learn of the Catholic clergy, past and present foreflghters for social justice, iii and out of the Ameri-can trade labor union move-ment.**

long as the specialist services are medical ly needed.

Alessi Warns Against Firings

HAND-RAISING OCCASION — The recent installation of officers for the Housing & Community Renewal chapter. Civil Service Em-ployees Assn., was conducted by field represen-tative Ann Chandler, left. New slate includes, from

left: Frederick Maltz, third vice-president; Lester M. Chance, second vice-president; Phyllis L. Fer-guson, secretary; Thomas A. DiNatale, first vice-president; Martin E. Geraghty, president, and Phyllis Runco, treasurer.

(Continued from Page 1) part of the contract, and I'm sure they will have to live up to it."

Alessi also hit hard at talks about firing people. "Firings create, not solve problems," he said.

Howe pointed out that there are 4,112 authorized jobs in the proposed County budget, but on-ly 3,825 of them actually are funded.

He has been told by Republi-can legislators to present a re-vised budget that would rein-state some liealth programs with-out raising taxes. His original proposed budget called for an average property tax rate in-crease of $2.29 per $1,000 as-sessed valuation, which would jump to $2.70 if the health pro-grams were reinstated without trimming the budget elsewhere.

More than $5 million in money raised by County property taxes — as opposed to money reim-bursed by the Federal or State governments or through other sources of revenue—would have to be trimmed from Howe's orig-

inal $195 million proposal i f ^ ^ tax hike is to be avoided.

"That would mean maybe 350 to 400 jobs," Howe said.

Majority Leader Williams esti-mated that at least 250 positions would have to be cut. He also said that step increases might be avoided by "raising the stan-dards used in the evaluation of employees," a requisite for the step increases. ^

Employees are eligible for JT step increase in pay each year during their first five years of employment.

Williams said that such staff departments as planning, budget and public information should bear the brunt of the cuts. He said such departments as public works and parks that provide sei-vices to people still would be cut, but not as much as the others. 0

Another source said that 25 higli-ranking administrators who are covered by union contracts would be asked to accept only a 5.5 percent wage increase rather than the 7 percent speci-fied in their contracts.

LONG SERVICE —— Five employees of the State Health Department's Rehabilitation Hospital in West Haverstraw were con-gratulated by State Commissioner of Health Hollis S. Ingraham for their 25 years of service. He prcvsented them with 25-year service pins at a luncheon at the Wayne House in Stony Point recently. Dr. Ingraham, left, appears with the recipients who are, left to right,

Mary Bussemer, physical therapist; Elizabeth McGovern, physical therapy aide; Anna Lenahan, head seamstress; Kathryn RePavo, senior stenographer; Viola Svensson, director of occupational therapy, and Helen Hayes (Mrs. Charles Mcx\rthur), who was awarded a plaque for her distinguished service on the board of visitors since 1944.

W e n z l H i t s J o b C u t b a c k V i a D e p a r t m e n t a l M e r g e r

Theodore C. Wenzl, p res iden t of t h e Civil Service Employees Assn., las t week a t -t acked a proposal t h a t would e l imina te 354 S t a t e jobs t h r o u g h consol idat ion wi th in t h e Commerce D e p a r t m e n t of t he Off ice of P l a n n i n g Services a n d the Off ice of Local Gov-e r n m e n t .

Wenzl warned that any con-solidation of the State depart-ments and agencies "must allow for full protection of job rights and benefits of employees dis-placed by such action."

State Senator Warren Ander-son, Senate Finance Chainnan, had recommended to Governor Rockefeller tlaat consolidation within the above departments would save the State $5 million annually by eliminating 205 fill-ed positions and abolishing 149 vacant ones.

In his amiouncement Senator Anderson said:

"A thorough evaluation by the staff of the Senate Finance Com-mittee has convinced me that the merger and consolidation of these three agencies into a new department would bring improved efficiency, tighter administrative control and considerable savings of State expenditures."

He noted that the only sec-tion not to be affected would be the State Board of Equali-zation and Assessment, now un-der OLG. Tlie Board would be-come an independent body and would not be included in the plan.

Anderson's committee staff estimated present cost of oper-ations for the affected agencies at $16 million. They claimed this could be reduced to about $11 million.

Reductions would be achieved mainly at the expense of few-er jobs. The estimated break-down would be reduction of 100 positions under "administrative support," 40 positions in re-search activities, and 65 posi-tions through a flat 15 percent reduction of all other programs. Savings here were estimated at $2,050,000. Anderson claimed an-other $1,490,000 would be saved "potentially" by elimination of 149 vacant positions.

To this total of $3,540,000, the Finance Committee added an

average of 40 percent savings in personal service costs for a total of 51,416,000 and a grand total of $4,956,000.

As of now, the Finance Com-mittee recommendation is mere-ly advisory to the Governor. Adoption would require imple-menting action during the com-ing 1972 session of the Legisla-ture.

N u r s e N a m e d New member of the Board of

Visitors of Sunmount State School is Mrs. Shirley L. Ne-gus, of Massena, wife of Dr. Charles F. Negus. Mrs. Negus is a registered nurse and the mother of six children. Her term runs to Dec. 31, 1972.

Schenectady City Chapter Installs SCHENECTADY—The officers

of the Schenectady City chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. were installed recently at Ferro's, in Schenectady. Thom-as J. Whitney, CSEA field rep-resentative, officiated.

Installed as president was Mi-chael Wilson; Vincent Ruzzo,

vice-president; Harry Foust, vice-president; William O'Brien, treasurer and Violet Ubraitis, secretary.

Members of the board of di-rectors include Ceil Jablonski; Peggy Leason; Marion Kramer; Melinda Myers; William Leon-ard, and A1 DeMeo.

FSAContract Is Negotiated At Fredonia

FREDONIA—The f i rs t -ever work c o n t r a c t for t h e Fac -u l t y - S t u d e n t Associat ion a t t h e S t a t e Univers i ty College of New York at Fredonia has been negotiated by the Civil Ser-vice Employees Assn.

The 150-member organization chose the CSEA in a representa-tive election in April. The mem-bers provide feeding, dormitory and book store service to the col-lege.

"The employee elected CSEA to represent them after seeing what State employees gained un-der CSEA leadership," comment-ed Thomas B. Christy, CSEA field repi-esentative who helped negotiate the FSA contract.

The pact, ratified this month, provides a six percent raise this first year and a five percent raise the second. It also increas-es holidays and vacation bene-fits.

"The important thing," Chris-ty said, "is that the employees now' have a contract guaran-teeing them their benefits and are no longer at the whim of management."

He said the FSA was currently preparing a constitution to sub-mit to CSEA headquarters in Albany for charter verification.

Panel Will Hear Sykes^

AVON—Joseph C Sykes, a Civil Service Employees Assn. f ield r ep resen ta t ive , will p a r -t i c ipa te in a pane l discussion on "Unionization and How It Affects Recreation and Parks" as part of a "Professional Mini Conference" sponsored by the Genesee Valley Recreation arid. . Parks Society scheduled for t h i s ® Thursday, Dec. 2, at the Avon Inn here.

The program for the confer-ence covers three aspects of professional involvement in parks and recreation: aging, parks and youth.

Sykes will represent the union viewpoint on a panel which also includes Nelson Potter, associate agency labor relations represen- ^ tative for the State Department of Parks and Recreation; and Robert Dispenza, director of Parks and Recreation for the City of Rochester. Dispenza will reflect the view of management and Potter will represent liaison between management and union. Potter will also act as panel moderator.

Keynote speaker for the con-ference will be James A. Peter- ^ son, associate professor of Rec-reation and Park Administration at the Indiana University School of Health, Physical Education and Recx-eation, and specialist in Recreation and Parks with the Cooperative Extension Service at Purdue University.

Nassau Contract (Continued from Page 1) ; ^

talks, althoUb'h spokesmen paid tribute to the efforts of a me-diator brought in two weeks ago when CSEA rejected an earlier offer.

The disruption of talks con-trasted sharply with a tradition of labor-management relations in the county.

Flaumenbaum, who had not taken part in the negotiations, said he was willing to step in to ^ resume negotiations if Caso chooses to personally face the CSEA coznmittee.

P r o f N a m e d Cornell Professor of Food Eco-

nomics Dr. David L. Call, of Ithaca, has been appointed by the Governor to the Temporary State Commission to Revise the Social Services Law. Members serve without salary.
