FORTY MINUTES was the time to be allotted to candidates in
NYC performance tests for promotion to stenographer, grade 4, but
when the competitors from the Board of Transportation and t h e
Finance Department were cut short at 35 minutes, they howled. T h e
monitor then announced tliat any who so desired could return for
another test, different material, in the afternoon.
Some candidates from other departments felt that the competitoni
who were given the option had two opportunities to their one. Thie
the NYC Civil Service Commission denied, saying the first test for the
two departments was cancelled for each competitor who rejected the
offer, so each candidate was given only one test, and all had an oppor<^
tunity to take the full 40 minutes for transcription.
Why the five minutes were cut from the two tests was not ex-i
plained. The occurrence was calicd "an accident.'*
The Commission spiked rumors that all the tests would be give«
over again.

THE KAPLAN COMMITTEE that Is studying U. S. pensions hm
been conferring with l e a d e n of employee groups. The oommittee le
sounding out these organizations on where they'd stand If particular
amendments to the law are proposed. Also, the committee asked eii»ii<
ployee leaders to suggest topics for t h e committee to consider.
Top Topie
Social Security will be one of the main topics. Shall the U. t .
law be amended to permit members of public employee retirement
systems, or employees eligible to such membership, to be covered under
Social Security, at the same time, for the same public job? Of courtM^
many thousands are covered by both, but for different jobs or periods^
or because they were included under Social Security at no cost durini;
service in the armed forces. The double coverage proposal would permit t h e m to keep alive, or augment, their Social Security protectioa.
The subject is highly controversial. Police, fire and teaching
groups, in general, who wanted no part of Social Security in the past«,
can not be expected te change their attitude overnight. One of t h e
hardest taslts before the committee is to drive home to the employee
just what is I>eing proposed, and how they would benefit under Social
Security.
Safeguards Aplenty
T h e committee positively wiU not recommend any reduction ef
benefits under either system; instead greater liberalization, and more
safeguards for employees, meanwhile praying that those previously
opposed will look carefully into the value of added benefits, including
up to $1,020 a year more pension, as part of their own reappraisal e<
what would be offered.
Head of the committee is EL Eliot Kaplan, former Deputy Comptroller of New York State. He administered the State Employees R e tirement System, and bccause of the outstanding job he did wae
appointed to his present post. Principally, he practices law at
Madison Avenue, NYC.

Pass Mark
Authority
Needs Thorough Study
Ib to reveal the numerical pass mark in the notice of exjimination itself, although there are occasional excepjtions. Yet the pass mark is something less significant than
appears on the surface, if one considers the latitude allowed to a commission or board to adjust the rating. For
Instance, suppose the needs of the service require more
eligibles than would be afforded by a 1 per cent value
assigned to each of 100 test questions. If the penalty for
a wrong answer is reduced, candidates with high scores
benefit little, those with low scores benefit much. If there
Is a uniform increment for each right answer, the liigh•coring candidates benefit more than the others.
The Two Go Togethef
The exercise of latitude in weighting questions is fai
jQie same direction as changing the pass mark.
In NYC the Civil Service Commission recently
adopted a rule by which it has full authority over what
the pass mark shall be; there is no requirement for stating the mark numerically in advance, although that practice prevails. Under the State Civil Service jurisdiction
about the same situation obtains. Unless otherwise stated,
• r some reservation is made on advance notice to candijiates, the pass mark would be 75 per cent.
The NYC Board of Education is not subject to the
jCivil Service Law or Rules, or to the State Civil Service
Commission in filling its teaching and related positions^
but to the Education Law and the State Department of
Education. All, however, are subject to the State Constitution.

(
The Education Department's ruling called the postrating pass mark unconstitutional, because not competitive. Thus if a ruling casts doubt on the legality of existing teacher eligible lists, because the pass mark in those
•xams was set subsequent to the rating, there may be
reason for the alarm to spread.
There is, at least, need for a thorough study of aofhority over pass marks, a codification of the permissible
variations from standard rating, and safeguards against
possible abuse by variations, because the pass mark and
the right to weight questions belatedly are like the two
keyboards served by the same bellows of an accordian.

T h e New York Times, on T h u r s d a y , October 22, told t h i s story
a b o u t t h e n e w l y - n a m e d m a j o r i t y leader.

M a h o n e y is a n ex-officio m e m b e r of t h e J o i n t Legislative C o m m i t t e r
on Horse Racing.
H e h a d resigned recently f r o m t h e H a m b u r g t r a c k activities, a n d
h e explains t h a t n e i t h e r h i s legal n o r i n s u r a n c e r e l a t i o n s w i t h t h e
t r a c k involves a n y impropriety—nevertheless h e h a s dropped t h e m
because t h e y m i g h t be misunderstood. A m o n g his colleagues, M a h o n e y
is considered clean, a n d one of t h e moet able m e n in public life a t the
S t a t e level.
P e r h a p s Dewey would h a v e p r e f e r r e d some o t h e r s e n a t o r as m a jority leader, but in politics you don't win every fight in full.
Guilt by Association
Guilt by association is a n a n c i e n t political gimmick. M e n in public
oflBce suffer not alone for t h e i r own sins, b u t for t h e sins of otheiTs i n
t h e i r e n t o u r a g e . And the m e a n i n g of political sin c a n be s t r e t c h e d i n definitely. We have seen, in t h e m a d n e s s of r e c e n t years, how i m propriety can be equated with sin; how laxness c a n be equated w i t h
sin; how, even, simple differences in j u d g m e n t c a n be equated w i t h
sin. Ironically, Dewey m a y t h i s t i m e be s u b j e c t e d to guilt by association. B u t while h e s t a r t e d as a strong prosecutor, it should be m e n tioned in passing t h a t h e himself does n o t find guilt by association
techniques congenial, nor does h e believe in t h e m .
F i r s t Viewpoint
Dewey's m e n point to t h e vigor with which h e h a s acted to r e move blemishes m a r r i n g t h e skin of t h e R e p u b l i c a n P a r t y . " A f t e r all,"
t h e y are saying, "Wicks is out. H e is not serving as L i e u t e n a n t G o v ernor. A l t h o u g h t h e Governor took great risks within his own p a r t y ,
h e h a s won his point. Sure, some of t h e G O P legislators m a y h a t e
h i m ; b u t o f t e n t h e p a t i e n t on a p.sychiatrist's couch h a t e s t h e doctor
who is applying curative measures. Two m o n t h s f r o m now, w h e n t h e
s m o k e of b a t t l e h a s subsided, it will be seen t h a t Dewey cleansed t h e
p a r t y a n d s t r e n g t h e n e d it f o r coming years." T h e s e m e n a r g u e t h a t
Dewey h a s s t r e n g t h e n e d himself, too, in t h e process.
Second Viewpoint
B u t ftnother viewpoint is expressed in political circles, b o t h D e m o c r a t i c a n d Republican, T h a t view is: Dewey is finished. H e h a s r e m a i n e d Governor too long. While h e h a s been a good executive, his
p a r t y is involved in too m a n y messes; a n d in t h e course of 12 years,
b a r n a c l e s e n c r u s t a n y a d m i n i s t r a t i o n . H e c a n n o t l i f t himself above
t h e quicksand in which his p a r t y is mired. And too m a n y m a t t e r s will
arise to h a u n t him. H e will suffer f r o m guilt by association as does t h e
smallast victim of a r a m p a g i n g Congressional committee.
T h e two a t t i t u d e s are a t opposing poles.
Assessing " F u t u r e s " .
I n assessing " f u t u r e s , " one m u s t multiply t h e objective s i t u a t i o n
by t h e c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of t h e m a n . Dewey's flexibility, his d e m o n s t r a t e d capacity to rise f r o m d e f e a t , his a m a z i n g intellectual ability
to f o r m u l a t e solutions to difficult problems—all these will weigh
f a v o r a b l y for him. Mr. Dewey is. in t h e view of D o n ' t R e p e a t Tliis,
n o t a t all ready to grind his per.sonality in t h e dirt. One h a s only t o
speak with ttie dedicated corps of m e n a r o u n d h i m to realize how
t r u e t h i s is.
H e is already acting with c h a r a c t e r i s t i c vigor to clean u p t h e
r a c e t r a c k s . I t m a y be assumed t h a t h e will act i n other areas, too,
w i t h i n coming m o n t h s .
Will He R u n for G o v e r n o r ?
Does it m e a n t h a t he will r u n for G o v e r n o r in 1954? Even t h o u g h
h e h a s lost a few skirmishes with t h e G O P legislators in t h e Wicks
battle, t h e r e will be e n o r m o u s i m p o r t u n i t i e s upon h i m to r u n a g a i n .
His p a r t y will not w a n t to lose New York S t a t e , which it h a s c o n trolled for so long. W h o c a n be victor if Dewey doesn't r u n ? I n t h e
p r e s e n t political vortex, p e r h a p s only one o t h e r R e p u b l i c a n — S e n a t o r
Irving Ives—may have t h e essential s t r e n g t h .
W h a t H e M u s t Consider
B u t Dewey will have to consider. W i t h t h e b u r g e o n i n g signs of
D e m o c r a t i c power, h e will n o t w a n t to e n d a career with t h e passibility of d e f e a t . H e will survey t h a t possibility with t h e greatest c a r e ,
especially if his opponent s h o u l d be F r a n k h n D. Roosevelt, J r . Dewey
would not w a n t it said in t h e history books t h a t he h a d lost to
Roosevelt senior^ a n d t h e n to Roosevelt j u n i o r .
Dewey knows, too, how heavily t h e p r e s e n t Internecine R e p u b l i c a n
troubles will reflect upon h i m . H e will point out t h a t h e acted swiftly
a n d effectively to expunge t h e blemishes. B u t h e iis a n old prosecutor,
a n d h e knows how deeply t h e people are influenced by p o r t e n t s of
c o r r u p t i o n ; a n d his p a r t y , a n d some of t h e m e n who have sat in h i g h
G O P councils, will be shown to be deeply m a r k e d . T h e c a n d i d a t e f o r
Governor will find it difficult to e x t r i c a t e himself f r o m t h e allusions,
however unquestioned his own political morality, however a c u t e h i s
own sense of g o v e r n m e n t ethics.
His Course?
P e r h a p s as never before in his lifetime, Dewey's course is at p r e s e n t u n c e r t a i n . Before h e accepted t h e call to r u n for t h e g o v e r n o r s h i p in 1950, hiis f a m i l y implored h i m to give u p political life. H e Is
known to have been a t t h e point of doing it. How will it be now? Will
h e s u c c u m b to p a r t y pressures a n d r u n a g a i n ? Will h e t r y to r e m a i n
Governor so t h a t h e c a n exert his g r e a t influence u p o n t h e n a t i o n a l
scene? Will h e e n t e r t h e F e d e r a l g o v e r n m e n t u n d e r P r e s i d e n t E i s e n h o w e r ? Will h e r e t u r n to t h e private practice of law?
Decision is a n o u t s t a n d i n g Dewey c h a r a c t e r i s t i c . At t h e s a m e
time, his a m b i t i o n r u n s deep; h e is a young m a n , a n d it is unlikely

Federal Personnel Officers
Admit Fear Gags Them
Nearly 100 personnel officers In
Federal agencies admitted t h a t
they feel gagged, are a f r a i d to
talk to newspapermen, and won't
even take steps to defend t h e m selves against attack.
T h e dramatic admission came
during a panel discussion held
by t h e Metropolitan New York
chapter of the Civil Service Assembly on Thursday. November
19. Four members of t h e civil service press spoke on t h e subject
"Personnel Agencies T h r o u g h t h e
Eyes of Newspapermen." They
were: Maxwell Lehman, editor of
t h e Civil Service LEADER: E d ward H. Gerken of t h e New York
World-Telegram: Mike Sullivan,
of t h e Long Island Press; and
Leslie Slote. of the Chief. William
E. McCarthy, assistant personnel
director of the Port of New York
Authority, was moderator.
They Answer the Questions
I n answer to a question from
Mr. Lehman. "How m a n y of you
are conccrned by the attacks on
civil service?" nearly every h a n d
went up. Tn answer to another
question. "How many feel free to
speak on political, economic, or
controversial questions?" not a
single h a n d went up. It became
clear in subsequent dii^cussion
t h a t f e a r prevents conscientious
Federal employees from defending
themselves against attack, and
even from speaking upon normal
personnel activities.
IMore News Wanted
Tlie four newsmen agreed t h a t
coverage of civil service news is
open to much improvement. All of
them asked for the release of more
"routine" news—like progress reports on examinations, and t h e release of Federal eligible lists. All
felt t h a t , particularly at the F e d eral level, too much personnel information was being withheld.
W h a t Makes News
Mr. Gi'ikcn explained Kome of
t h e difliculties involved in newsgathering. T h e civil service press,
he pointed out, can't be expected
t o cover every single agency. It
therefore becomes important for
t h e closest cooperation to be developed, and t h a t as much news
as possible be isisued by the agencies to the newspapers. He listed
t h e kind of information t h a t
makes news.
Mr. Sullivan decried t h e practice ol government agencies lu
seeking college graduates for so
many jobs. Reading f r o m current
examination announcementis, he
asserted t h a t t h e s t a n d a r d s froze
out competent people who could
well pass t h e examinations. " U n der these standards." he said, "A1
Smitli could never become a government aide." Mr. Smith h a d not
gone to college.
Utilizing Civil Service Press
Mr. Slote pointed out t h a t u n less pemonnel agencies made fuller
utilization of tlie civil service
press, their own recruitment e f forts were bound to suffer. He
NYC Welfare Dept.
Eligibles Seek
More Promotions
The Department of Welfare
Clerk, Grade 3, Eligibles Association h a s elected temporary officers: Mrs. Mable Newby, president;
Marie McClure, vice president;
Mrs. Marion Smith, secretary;
Mrs. Bernice Nelson, treasurer,
and Mrs. Alice Robinson, co-ordinator. Mrs. Marjoi-ie Roberts is
publicity director.
Although to date 211 of the 608
eligibles have been promoted, t h e
association says t h a t there are a t
least 150 vacancies, and some eligibles are "acting" in higher positions, without receiving t h e pay
t h a t should go with the more responsible duties.
The association seeks t h e a d ditional promotions by J a n u a r y 1
and has requested a conference
with Welfare Commissioner Henry
L. McCarthy.
NYC Mayor-elect Robert F.
Wagner sent t h e association t h e
following reply to t h e association's
request for more promotions:
"It Ls my firm conviction t h a t
those who qualify for promotion
should be -promoted as rapidly as
possible, if a civil service career is
to mean anytliing. I am taking up
this m a t t e r with t h e Budget Director and will do all t h a t I can
to expedite action on this promotion list."
T h e association invites all of
the departmental clerk, grade 3,
eligibles to attend a meeting on
Wednesday, December 2 at 6 P.M.
at Werderman's Hall, Sixteenth
Street and Tliird Avenue, NYC.
added t h a t in cases of attack upon
civil servants, a civil service paper
must look to backing f r o m those
civil servants if It is to take u p
the cudgels in their behalf. He
cited an instance when Westbrook
Pegler h a d severely attacked public employees, and his paper had
run a f r o n t - p a g e editorial deploring the a t t a c k and defending the
employees. "We got iust a h a n d f u l
of letters from employees," Mr.
Slote remarked.
A Positive P r o g r a m
Mr. Lehman cited instances
f r o m his reporting experience to
show how efforts to withhold news
h a d boomeranged upon agencies.
Personnel agencies are not closed
corporations," h e told t h e audience. "They must operate on a n
open door policy." He suggested
t h a t every civil service commission
have expert public relations guidance; t h a t all possible facilities be
made available to reporters in
covering t h e news; t h a t heads of
civil service agencies hold regular
press conferences; t h a t more a u thority be given to the Second R e gional Office of the U. S. Civil
Service Commission in the release
of news; t h a t "gobbledegook"—
the plague of big words — be
shunned in t h e issuance of public
material; t h a t new rules and regulations be explained so t h a t t h e
people affected can understand
them. "If good relatioms are to be
maintained," T h e LEADER editor
said, " t h e n public officials must be
accessible, they must know th«
facts, they must be honest in giving those facts, and they must not
expect t h a t every story will be
'favorable.'"
When it became clear t h a t Federal employees were a f r a i d to talk,
the suggestion was made t h a t in
many cases their organizations
ought to talk for them, a n d they
might activate other groups.
T h e gathering brought out a
large segment of the persons concerned with personnel in the New
York City area. Present were:
J a m e s E. Rossell. director, a n d
Lawrence Baehr, assiistant director, of the Second Regional Office
of the U. S. Civil Service Coumiission; Paul P. Brennan, President,
Thomas B. Dyett, Commissioner,

present a t a business meeting held
in t h e Newburgh Armory.
Discussions offered by t h e delegates centered a r o u n d employees
working out of title a n d t h e
wording of two provisions in t h e
A t t e n d a n c e Rules.
Charles E. L a m b , C o n f e r e n c e
president, was asked to t a k e u p
t h e m a t t e r of o u t - o f - t i t l e work
a n d a t t e m p t to seek a p r o p e r solution by requesting t h a t t h e correct titles a n d salaries be allocated to t h e employees c o n c e r n ed. Discussion revealed t h a t m a n y
of t h e out-of title positions are in

legal
holidays occurring d u r i n g
the
year, or days in lieu t h e r e o f , e a c h
employee except those on a per

A great deal of discussion was
centered on Rule 9 of t h e I n s t i tutional A t t e n d a n c e Rules. U n d e r
t h e revised rules now in force,
some institution h e a d s h a v e t a k en a d v a n t a g e of t h e new ruling,
which says "serious illness shall

t h a t t h e r e is considerable doubt of

K e r e s m a n , secretary- Police C o n ference, S t a t e of New York, wrote
Governor T h o m a s E. Dewey t h a t

"We are confident," Mr. K e r e s m a n wrote' " t h a t t h e people will

have this wording removed from
Rule 9. It was felt that m a n j e m ployees in State service are widows
with children and work of necessity. If their dependants are so
seriously 111 that there Is doubt of
their recovery, the
dependents
would certainly be in a hospital
t>eing cared for by others, yet
t h e r e is a borderline when the employee might be needed at home,
t h e Conference felt.

A plea t h a t t h e rule of layoffs
should be in t h e inverse order of
ability, a n d not t h e inverse order
of seniority, was m a d e by J a m e s
R. W a t s o n , executive director of
t h e N a t i o n a l Civil Service League.
H e s u p p o r t e d a r g u m e n t s m a d e by
C h a r l e s H. B l a n d . C h a i r m a n of
t h e C a n a d i a n Civil Service C o m mission. Mr. B l a n d wrote a n
article on personnel a d m i n i s t r a tion, published in "Good G o v e r n m e n t , " t h e League's magazine.
Mr. B l a n d dealt with t h e C a n a d i a n situation alone. M r . W a t s o n .
In a p r e f a c e , rationalized i t In
t e r m s of U. S. practice.
M r . W a t s o n said t h a t t h e U. S.
G o v e r n m e n t pays little a t t e n t i o n
t o merit in deciding who m u s t be
laid off in a reduction in force.
" I n s t e a d , " h e asserted, "other

• p e r m a n e n t ' or 'indefinite' worker,
a n d v e t e r a n p r e f e r e n c e — a r e . In
practice, considered b e f o r e m e r i t .
T h e U. S. civil service supervisor's
h a n d s are tied w h e n h e t r i e s to
keep the best workers durhif l a y offs. because he must operate within these arbitrary rules."
O n the Other H a n d . C a n a d a
In contrast, he added, in Canada

LEADER
State Legislature Votes Watered-Down Bill
For NYC Social Security
ALBANY, Nov. 23 — T h e special session of the State Legislat u r e passed the Dewey Administ r a t i o n bill to permit Social Security coverage for about 40,000
NYC employees not now under
either a public employee retirem e n t system (^r Social Security,
b u t it was not the bill t h a t the
NYC employees wanted.
NYC Budget Director Abraham
D. Beame, a f t e r conferences with
employee leaders, got Mayor Vinc e n t R. Impellitteri to support a
bill, which Mayor-elect Robert F.
Wagner J r . also favored, t h a t
would have permitted dual retroactive coverage for substitute
teachers, and prohibited the Board
of Estimate from signing a contact for Social Security coverage
of competitive or labor class e m ployees. The Dewey Administration
bill omits authorization of dual
coverage, and authorizes the Board
of Estimate to exclude any a n d
all titles from any NYC retirement system coverage so t h a t
Social Security could apply.
Governor Thomas E. Dewey's
objections to the provisions of the
NYC Administration bill are u n derstood to have been based on
their granting to City employees
more t h a n the S t a t e gave to Its
own employees, hence the Governor didn't want to set a precedent t h a t might induce S t a t e
employees to seek the same benefits. This applied to t h e dual coverage. T h e removal of t h e restriction against including competitive and labor class jobs was
in line with w h a t t h e S t a t e did,
ouse
with th«
deluxe
In imposing no statutory limitations on titles so t h a t Social Security could apply in S t a t e service,
and in local government® other
t h a n NYC.
A Bit of an Edge Here
T h e topic came before the special
session on the urgent request of
Mayor Impellitteri, so t h a t a cont r a c t could be signed with t h e
State, for Social Security coverage, by December 15, the last date
on which three-year retroactive
benefits under Social Security
could be obtained. T h e Impellitteri Administration's bill did not
specifically provide for retroactive
coverage, but t h e timing m a d e It
possible, a n d it was p a r t of t h e
informal agreement with City
lAUNDRONAT.

employee groups t h a t retroactive
coverage could be granted.
The State, in bringing 10,000 of
itvS employees under Social S e curity, made no provision for r e troactive Social Security benefits,
for the three allowable years, not
only because of t h e cost to itself
but also because t h e employes
would unlikely want to put u p
their share of t h e cost, equal to
about two weeks' pay. I t amounts,
actually, to 1*2 percent for pay
for t h e three years, or
percent total, and in NYC would
average about $167 a n employee.
T h e dual coverage to which
Governor Dewey objected would
have arisen as follows: Suppose
a n employee, like a substitute
teacher, was not eligible for m e m bership in a retirement system
during t h e
substitute period,
which is t h e actual case. He or she
would t h e n be eligible for Social
Security, if a n agreement between
the City a n d the S t a t e were
signed, and approved by t h e U. S.
D e p a r t m e n t of Health, Education
and Welfare. But when t h e substitute teacher became a regular
teacher he would be entitled t o
become a member of t h e NYC
Teachers
Retirement
System.
Also, he would be entitled to pay
into his a n n u i t y account in t h a t
system—that is, his reserve ordinarily created by contirbutions
from salary — t h e a m o u n t t h a t
he would have been entitled to
contribute h a d he been a member
of t h e Teachers Retirement System f r o m t h e beginning. Since
there would be Social Security
coverage f r o m t h e beginning, u n til t h e membership in t h e T e a c h ers Retirement System started,
for t h e substitute period dual coverage would prevail.
Bill Protected City
T h e City got t h e
employee
groups, with only two teacher o r ganizations dissenting, to go along
with a plan whereby over a fiveyear period following p e r m a n e n t
appointment t h e teacher would
r e f u n d to t h e City t h e a m o u n t it
h a d contributed toward Social
Security for t h e substitute e m ployment period. I n this way t h e
City wouldn't be paying twice for
t h e same period, and t h e benefits
to employees would be equalized.
The
authority granted
the
Board of Estimate to operate i a
the whole field, instead of only
outside t h e competitive a n d labor
classes, was particularly r e p u g n a n t to City employee groups.
While
the State
eonstitutioa
makes pension benefits c o n t r a c tual, a n d requires t h a t they m u s t
not be diminished or impaired^
this applies only to present m e m bere of t h e r e t i r e m e n t systems,
a n d not to new e n t r a n t s . Hence
the old f e a r of eventual substitution of Social Security for t h e
public employee r e t i r e m e n t systems was revived. T h e employees
realized t h a t t h e r e was no danger
of either t h e present NYC A d ministration or its successor a t tempting any such substitution^
but objected to t h e possibility oi
an entering wedge.
Telegrams were sent to t h e
Governor a n d t h e legislators by
City employee groups, asking t h a t
t h e City Administration bill be
passed intact, but proved of n e
avail.
Social Security coverage f o r
those City employees who are now
"pension o r p h a n s " is on t h e way,
a n d t h e bill as passed, which t h e
Governor was prompt to sign,
does no more t h a n to permit r e troactive coverage. Otherwise t h e
City, just like any other c o m m u n ity in t h e State, could decide t o
a sign a contract with t h e State,
have -he same Social Security
coverage for its presently wholly
noncovered employees as is permissible under other S t a t e law.
How extensive will be t h e acceptance by employees of retroactive coverage for t h e t h i e e years
la unknown. T h e question would
be decided by pension groups,
each by itself, but the vote would
have to be unanimous in any one
group. Because of t h e l u m p - s u m
contribution required, only small
groups could be expected to p r o duce such unanimity.
T h e CIO's Government
and
Civic Employee's Organizing Committee proposed t h e special session's agenda be enlarged to iiikclude NYC Social Security.
