CSEA Bills Call for Pension
Improvements, Overtime,
Increment After 10 Years
ALBANY, J a n . 12 — Monday,
J a n u a r y 12, marked t h e opening
of the Civil Service Employees
Association's legislative program.
To be dropped into t h e Senate
a n d Assembly hoppers were bills
aimed a t gaining h a l f - p a y retirement for employees reaching age
55 with a m i n i m u m of 25 years'
service.
Also included in the CSEA p r o gram were measures designed to
achieve retirement a f t e r 25 years
of service for Mental Hygiene a n d
Correction D e p a r t m e n t workers.
Another of t h e top aims of t h e
Association is a bill to make perm a n e n t t h e Lupton law, under
which increment credit is granted
to persons receiving a p e r m a n e n t
a p p o i n t m e n t for time served in
t h e same or similar jobs on a provisional basis.
Overtime
T h e A.ssociation bill calling for
a straight 40-hour week with paym e n t for overtime in cash also
will reach legislative desks this
week.
Under t h e present law, t h e Director of t h e Budget may set a n y
work week in excess of 40 hours
he deems necessary, and overtime
may be paid in cash or in equal
time off.
T h e CSEA bill would establish a
40-hour week in law and require
overtime payment in cash a t
straight time rates.
A bill t o g r a n t incumbents of
reallocated positions t h e same
status in t h e new allocation as
they held In t h e old is also in t h e
hopper.
I t is designed to correct an Inequity in t h e existing law, where
a person, for example, in t h e third
year of grade 8 is reallocated t o
grade 10 but gets no immediate
financial benefit, since pay for
first year, grade 10. is t h e same
as third year, grade 8.
T h e Association measure would
require an incumbent in such a n
Instance to be paid the third year
rate of grade 10.
'Vesting' of Pensions
"Vesting" of pensions in another
CSEA bill on t h e program this
year.
T h e Association will ask t h a t
a member of the retirement system for at l«ast 10 years be allowed to leave retirement payments made in the retirement
f u n d if t h a t person leaves S t a t e
service. T h e n at age 55 or 60,
whichever h a d been originally
chosen, he would receive whatever
retirement benefits h a d accrued.
No salary bills are expected this
week, since salary negotiations are
in progress, as reported in another
story.

Increment Case
Won by Assn.
ALBANY, J a n . 12 — The Appelate Division, Third Department,
unanimously upheld the decision
of the Supreme Court, Rensselaer
County, that on upward reallocation of the employment interviewer title, employees transferred
to that title were to receive both
the increased pay resulting from
r>!allocation. and the benefit of increments earned corresponding to
Ihe number of years they served in
their former position.
The case was that of Celeste
Posenkranz, and others similarly
situated.
Miss Rosenkranz

won by the law firm of DeGrafT,

held, In effect, t h a t while it might
be discrimination, it was the law.
No Authority to Deny
"We find no statutory authority
for thus reducing the salary payable," the opinion continues. "The
acceptance of the
appellants'
(State's) contention would entail
not a construction but a rewriting
of the statute. Inequities may be
found in the present statute, but
they must be dealt with by the
Legislature, not by the courts."

Passing of New Postal Test
For the first time in history a
civil service exam given on one
day will result in appointments on
the very next day. The exam is
for filing clerk — career positions
in the New York, N. Y. post office
and is open now. It will remain
open continuously.
The U. S. Civil Service Commission will issue and receive applications at 641 Washington
Street, New York 14, N. Y. It will
immediately call applicants to exams which will be held daily. A
staff of examiners will rate papers
on the night of the same day
when the exam was given, and
that night special messengers will
deliver names of successful c a n didates to Postmaster George M.
Bragalini. Therefore, if the Postmaster sends a telegram to an
eligible and the eligible responds
the same day, he would get a job
the day after he took the exam.
The eligible rosters will be on a
daily basis until the Commission
is able to exceed the post office
demands for clerks and carriers.
In other words, the eligibles on

Bates Tells of Changes
in State Income Tax
ALBANY, J a n . 12 — President
Spencer E. Bates of the State Tax
Commission called public attention last week to a new law t h a t
will reduce the exemptions for
heads of family and increase the
minimum installment payments
under the State Income Tax Law.
Under the old law the head of a
family was entitled to $2,500 exemption, plus $400 for each dependent. Now the exemption is
still $2,500, but the $400 additional
exemption applies only to those
dependents in excess of 1. Hence,
where there was one dependent
formerly, the exemption was $2,900; now it is $2,500; where there
were two, it was $3,300, and now it
is $2,900, etc.
The exemptions for married
couples with dependents remain
unchanged.
Where installment payments of
income tax are made, the former
minimum of $5 has been raised to
$10, and the third and fourth installments are payable later t h a n
formerly. The new dates are November 15 and February 15.

each daily list will be immediately
certified. When there is an excess
of eligibles over vacancies, candidates will be put on a consolidated
list in the order of their percentage ratings.
The examination is for filling
jobs on an indefinite basis, but
since all present indefinite employees of the post office are expected to be made permanent,
there is a good possibility of eligibles from the new list attaining
permanency as well.

ent Indefinite employees who are
entitled to permanency have a t tained it, the new list will be
merged with the present one.
The opportunity thus presented
was described as one of the best
for obtaining post office jobs t h a t

United States.
Open to Public
The general public is invited to
compete, also temporary
employees not on the present clerkcarrier list. The exam, however,
is open to all residents of the delivery area, or patrons of t h a t
post office. A patron, for instance,
would be someone in business in
t h a t area, which is M a n h a t t a n ,

.sponsibility between the administrator and the commissior* or board
seems to be the only point of dispute. I t is hoped t h a t with the a d vantage of an additional year's
study, your Honorable Bodies will
now be ready to enact legislation
which will permit a modern system
with great improvements in p e r sonnel administration."
Met Strong Opposition
The proposal, which came up last
year, was recalled by Senator
Walter J. Mahoney after terrifio
opposition had placed its passage
in jeopardy. The opposition found
all public employees organizations,
plus sectors of the Legislature, plug
local civil service bodies, united.
There is evidence t h a t efforts will
be made within the next few weeks
to meet the objections t h a t h a d
been raised at the 1952 session a n d
pass a bill upon which there will
be sub.stantial agreement.

Major Reforms in Civil Service
To Be Pressed by Eisenhower
WASHINGTON, J a n . 12—What
some call a revolution, but others
a n evolution, in Federal civil servl<e is slated to begin soon a f t e r
the Eisenhower Administration assumes office on J a n u a r y 20.
An inkling of t h e proposed
changes was given by '^a group
t h a t has been advising General
Elsenhower on civil service m a t ters. The main projects of t h e vast
fihange are:
1. More jobs to be included in
t h e merit system.
2. New exam iuethods to be i n stituted for filling scientific, professional and technical positions,
a n d possibly administrative jobs
BUS well.
3. A large increase in t h e n u m ber of jobs in t h e highest pay
bracket.
4. Revision of t h e veteran p r e f erence law.
5. Departments and agencies to
hold more exams, though with
continuance of close supervision by
t h e U. S. Civil Service Commission.
6. Conferring on t h e Commission. and particularly t h e new
C h a i r m a n , of more responsibilities
for Federal personnel, now largely discharged by a White House
aide.
7. Increased efforts to obtain
wider recruitment f o r jobs now
found h a r d to fill.
Attorneys and Postmasters
Among t h e jobs to be recommended for inclusion in t h e competitive class are those of a t t o r neys, now filled on a patronage
basis, although quite a few a t torneys, who have become experts
in their jobs, have been held over
f r o m administration to administration, some f r o m as f a r back a t
t h e Coolidge Administration. Also
some of t h e overseas jobs, now
"excepted" from civil service r e quirements, are to be filled
through formal competitive tests.
Also, postmasters would have to
pass a competitive exam. Instead

nearly always get t h e job. T h e

T h e new exam method would be
