T h e LEADER learns (as indicated in a n o t h e r article In this issue) t h a t if t h e a m e n d m e n t passes, legislation will be introduced raising to $100 t h e m i n i m u m pension paid any member of t h e S t a t e Retire^ m e n t System.

However, t h e language of t h e a m e n d m e n t is such t h a t civil service employees must be on guArd lest it be used to pull up t h e pensions of certain individuals having political pull." Group Life Insurance Offers Extra Benefits Free ALBANY, Oct. 22—The report of its pension-insurance committee to t h e delegates a t t h e a n n u a l meeting of t h e Civil Service E m ployees Association announced several valuable improvements in t h e Group Life Insurance which t h e Association makes available to its members.

Double indemnity for accidental death, without extra premium cost, is also guaranteed all Insured members of t h e plan for t h e same period. Reduced premiums for insured members 34 years old or younger, which took effect on November 1, 1950, will be continued for another year. This amounted to reduction f r o m 60 cents to 40 cents m o n t h ly per t h o u s a n d of insurance for those 29 years or younger a n d f r o m 60 cents t o 50 cents per m o n t h per t h o u s a n d for those 30 to 34 years. Forgiveness Clause Premiums will not be charged to Insured members while they are disabled a n d unable to work for gain or profit. At present, waiver of premiums during disability is in effect for only one year or for a period equal to t h e time t h e policyholder h a s been in t h e Group plan, if less t h a n one year. This liberalization is g u a r - anteed for t h e year begining November 1. I n t h e f u t u r e , when a n Insured member applies for conversion of his group insurance, he or she will be allowed to continue with one year interim t e r m insurance prior to conversion to t h e p e r m a n e n t form of insurance. Emergency compensation now in effect in S t a t e service will b« considered as salary to determine t h e a m o u n t of insurance issuable to members insured u n d e r t h e plan who are employed by t h e State.

CPVIL SER'V^ICE LEA^'DER 4 2 P.C. Signed Up for Age-55 Pension Plan; State Opposes Reopening ALBANY, Oct. 22—A total of 66,000 workers have taken sulvantage of the age-SS retirement plan. Deputy Comptroller H. Eliok K a p l a n reports. Mr. K a p l a n states t h a t members total 155,000. T h u s about 42 per cent took advantage of the State's offer. Of these, the vast m a j o r i t y joined during the first year the opportunity was given. Figures show t h a t this year only 8.732 persons signed u p for t h e plan between J a n u a r y 1 anci September 30, the closing date. Expects No Extension Mr. Kaplan told The LEADER t h a t , as f a r as h e can see, f u r t h e r exten.sion of t h e d a t e by which cuiTent employees may elect t h e plan is not contemplated. "The feeling is pretty stron.5 t h a t those who wanted the plan have joined," he said. "Of course, the plan is still open t o new employees. They have a year from their date of hiring to sign up, if they desire." Why More Didn't Say Yes Asked for reasons why more public workers did not elect t h e 55-year plan, K a p l a n cited five: "1. Among younger employees, paiticularly among women, who are still fairly new in their jobs, i . WISS Ik SONS CO. NEWARK 7, N. J. the idea of retirement is not even considered probable. T h e girls are not out for a career, but are planning to marry and leave t h e m a t t e r of working to their h u s bands. Many of t h e young men take a fatalistic attitude t h a t to worry about where they will be 25 or 30 years hence is a waste of time. I n short, retirement is too remote to be considered. "2. The Increased contributions required seems high to m a n y workers, particularly those who tell themselves they must t a k e t h e money now and forget about the added advantages of t h e shorter plan. "3. Some employees have a n idea t h a t whether or not they elect t h e plan, by the time they are to retire legislation will have been enacted t o give it to them. "4. Another group argues t h a t sooner or later Social Security benefits will be extended t o them a n d the coupling of t h a t with their regiilar 60-year retirement will be sufficient. "5. There is still another group, not often mentioned, which holds t h e hope t h a t pensions will be increased sufficiently under the regular plan to allow t h e m to r e tire in security." Another reason, often mentioned by employees, is t h a t their incomes will not permit t h e m to expend t h e amount needed to make up t h e deficiencies under the plan. Selling Job Well Done For these and some other r e a sons, Mr. K a p l a n said, a large number of potential pensioners did not elect t h e 55-year plan. IF YOUR FEiT HURT . . .

The department has always experienced labor problems, though they reach serious climaxes only occasionally. Mayor Fioreilo H. LaGuardia, during his administration, seeking to avoid jurisdictional squabbles and competitive organizing in the other depaitments, parcelled out the departntent to the American Federation cf Labor. Tlie CIO got t h e P e p a r t m e n t of Welfare. Now t h e APL unions who represent the sanitation men total three. There have been switches to one branch or another of the AFT^, with two more such moves being weighed. C« 1.11. XI.. ^M. Meanwhile the stage is more or less monopolized by the slowdown of garbage collections, directed by the Local 111-A of the Building Service Employees Union, AFL. This union was formed by Stanley B. Krasowskl, its incumbent president, from members of Local 111, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, APL. LOCAL 111 ACTIVE: Another switch has resulted in the f o r m a tion of the Uniformed Sanitation Men's Association, Local 831, of the Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen and Helpers Union. Previously Local 40, in Queens, combined, when in the StateCounty APL groups, with Local 308 in other boroughs, to form Local 831 of the Teamsters union. J o h n De Lury is president . . ... . .. of Local 831. To switch over to the Teamsters he had to resign an International vice presidency of the State-County AFL group. However, the State - County group reports t h a t it Is actively enrolling members in Local 111 at a good pace and t h a t after the present flurry of "sensational tactics" is over, will be able to show membership strength among sanitation men, both Class A and Class B, second to none. Thus there are three APL unions in the field for sanitation men, besides the numerous other unions representing clerical workers and men in the skilled and semi-skilled trades. CIO Tries l i s Hand In addition the Government and Civic Employees Organising Committee, CIO. stoting that the quarrels by t h e AFL unions show the need for stabilization, is organizing Local 376. A n t h o n y Laregina is president. Harry Gray serves as the union representative. Thus a fourth union representing sanitation men is in prospect. All of them have much the same objectives, principal among them a salary increase, a five-day 40hour week and pension liberalization.

A labor relations mediator, who is actually on the staff of t h e Mayor's ofBce, is stationed in the department. Although his a u t h o r ity is citywide, he h a s been working on Sanitation Department case exclusively. The mediator is Dominic T. Aurichio, an attorney who formerly handled labor cases in private practice. Mainly the cases come to Mr. Aurichio through union leaders. Employees with grievances prefer to have skilled representation by leaders of the union of which they are members. Any employee or group of employees may bring a grievance directly to Mr. Aurichio, however. Employees Get Hearing I n each case a hearing is given to the employee or his representative.

He reports t h a t h e has never h a d a single instance of lack of co-operation by a division head, and t h a t many grievances have been settled. If they do not involve department-widtf problems, or other employees, or budget considerations, they a r e put into effect without even going before Commissioner Andrew W^ Mulrain. The Commissioner is a p prised in reports to him of all t h e activities of the bureau. If no solution can be readied^ or a recommendation is unsatisfactory to the employee, an a p p ^ may be taken to the Commissioner. If t h e employee is still dissatisfied, he may appeal to t h e Division of Labor Relations, of the Mayor's Office. T h e Mayor may accept or reject the Division'® recommendation, and if he a c cepts it, may order the Commissioner of any department to comply with it. if the subject-matter is one over which the Mayor h a s jurisdiction. If the case involves a disposition t h a t only t h e Board of Estimate may make, the recommendation is submitted to t h e Board, and t h e Board's decision t h e n becomes binding. Advises Commissioner The present drive by one union for a five-day, 40-hour week for sanitationmen involves citywide policy and added funds, hence is outside of Mr. Aurichio's jurisdiction. He does, however, advise Commissioner Mulrain on problems arising f r o m the slowdown and other aspects of the union's impact on the work of the d e p a r t ment.

Page Sixteen C I V I L S E R V I C E Tuesday, October 23, 1951 L E A D E R SWO-a-Month Minimum Pension Bill Is on Way- Make the most If Amendment 3 Passes of your clothing ALBANY, Oct. 22—Legislation designed to bring pension payments to retired public workers to a minimum of $100 a month may be Introduced in the next legislature. Whether or not the measures, now in preparation, will be Introduced will depend upon the action of voters in the State this fall on a constitutional amendment proposal on the ballot. That proposed amendment would allow the Legislature to use State funds to supplement pensions of public workers where those pensions are considered inadequate. If the constitutional amendment Is adopted the Legislature will be free to consider measures calling for a reali.stic approach to the pension problem. Now $900 Minimum At present, under an emergency law enacted last winter, persons whose pensions total less t h a n $900 annually and who have no other means or source of income by which they can be maintained, or who are unable to secure support from a legally-responsible spouse able to provide t h a t support, may receive additional payments which will bring their pension income to not more t h a n $900 annually. I n other words the State, In what is actually a one-year welfare measure, grants its pensioners at least $75 a month. The bill became effective July 1, and will expire next J u n e 30. Payments totaling $35,325.25 have been made by the State during the first three months of the law's operation. Not yet tallied are amounts spent by lower governmental bodies operating under the law.
