ALBANY, Jan. 31 — Work of
the County Officers Association
was described to the members of
the County Executive Committee,
CSEA, meeting in the library of
Association Headquarters in Albany. Vernon A. Tapper of Onondaga, chairman of the committee,
introduced Donald C. Scribner,
of Johnstown, executive secretary
of the County Officers group. Mr.
Scribner said that the organization he represents is composed of
county officers who meet to handle problems dealing with the administration of 58 counties in its
membership. Only the five counties of New York City are not
members, as their problems would
be of a municipal nature, Mr.
Scribner explained. He described
the operation and purposes of his
organization and advocated that
the county chapters of the Asso-
ciation consider recommending to
the county board of supervisors, or
to other governing agency, that
private concern make a survey
of the salaries and duties of the
various employees.
He stressed that such a report
must be made without any political alignments, and added that
one specific goal of his group is
mandatory year-round Saturday
closing of county offices.
Following Mr. Scribner's talk,
there was discussion of the various bills to be introduced in the
legislature this year.
New Brochure Planned
Philip Kerker, director of pubtic relations, presented suggestions
for a new type of brochure to be
gotten out for membership recruitment, and a committee was
appointed to aid Mr. Kerrkerr in
this project, consisting of Lula

Dannemora, M atteawan
Aides Achieve High Status
ALBANY, Jan. 31—An objective
•f many years standing appeared
close to achievement last week for
employees of Dannemora
and
Matleawan State Hospitals.
J. Earl Kelly, Director of Classification, indicated that he would
recommend upgrading of the salnries of criminal hospital attendants in all levels. It was understood that the recommendation
Would be they should receive the
same pay as guards in the State
prison.s. The attendants had long
contended that their tasks are as
difficult and as arduous as those
of pri.son guurtls. They had even
luuintaiufd tiieir Joto are the
more difficult, because they must
handle persons who are both criminals and mentally maladjusted.
50 At Hearing
More than 50 criminal hospital
attendants, together with Senator
Hatfield of D»tchess County and
Assemblyman Fitzpatrick of Clinton County, attended a hearing in
the State Office Building on Tuesday, January 25. The group held
a pre-hearing conference in headquarters of the Civil Service Employees Association, to marshall
their arguments for presentation
before the State Classification and
Compensation Division.
The reallocation will affect 602
criminal hospital attendants, 144
criminal hospital senior attendants, and 66 criminal hospital
charge attendants at Matteawan
State Hospital, Beacon, and Dannemora State Hospital.
John P. Powers, CSEA president,
coinnlented on the development:
"The statement of Mr. Kelly Is a
heartening one. The adjustment
in salary inequity has been long
overdue and has been urged by
the Civil Service Employees Association for many years. Mr.
Kelly Is to be congratulated on
his forllu'igUt statement."
ALBANY, Jan. 31 — A half-inch
thick revision of the State civil
service law was placed in the hopper this week. It represents the
work of the Pi'eller Commission
over a three-year period, and
changes some of the basic elements in the present law. The
measure incorporates 165 changes,
much re-writing and simplification.
Produced by the Temporary i
State Commission on Revision of
the Civil Service Law, the proposals would become effective on
October 1, 1955, if enacted. Assemblyman Fred W. Preller is
chairman of the Commission. Senator Francis J. Mahoney, now
Democratic leader in the upper
house, was, until his resignation,
vice-chairman.
Rieht of Hearing
One of the big changes suggested is the right of hearing and
counsel on stated charges to all
employees in the competitive class.
These rights have long been
sought by public employees, only
to be frustrated by the opposition of some civic groups. Governor Dewey on several occasions
vetoed measures which would
have given this right, now enjoyed
only by war veterans and exempt
volunteer firemen.
Reinstatement
Related to this, another change
gives the right of reinstatement
to an employee who has been improperly suspended or dismissed.
This reinstatement would be to
the employee's former position,
after the suspension or dismissal
had been reversed.
Divided on Anti-Strike Law
The Commission by a divided
vote decided against repeal of the
Condon-Wadlin anti-Strike Act.
Commission members voting to
continue that law are Assemblymen Preller and Orin S. Wilcox,
Senator Austin W. Erwin, Clyde
A. Lewis, H. Eliot Kaplan and William D. McCallum. Those favoring
repeal
are
Assemblyman
Frank J. Pino, Alexander A. Falk,
President of the State Civil Service Commission, Senator Thomas
J. Cuite and Dr. Frank L. Tolman.
One modification of the act was
agreed upon by all the members
of the Commission, to give right
of appeal to any employee believing himself aggrieved by a decision that he has violated the antistrike law. The appeal could be
made to the appropriate civil service commission as well as to the
court, with the right, upon reversal, to reinstatement to his former position with pay from the
date of his dismissal.
Refusal to Answer
Another proposal provides that
any public employee claiming constitutional privilege against selfincrimination, or who refuses to
waive immunity or to answer
questions concerning his official
conduct or duties upon any duly
authorized inquiry, shall vacate
his position.
Among other change.i, tlie bill
accomplishes the following:
Broadens and liberalizes the
provisions relating to transfer of
employees. The State and local
units of government would be allowed to transfer employees between them. And no employee
could be transferred without his
consent.
Abolishes Veto Power
Transfers to the State Department of Civil Service the power
to classify and allocate positions
in the State service, and abolishes
tlie veto power now exercised by
the State Budget Director.
Gives local civil service commissions the power to raise, lower
or abolish examination fees, except where the State commission
conducts the examination.
Ne Changes in Vet Preference
The bill does not change th«
present law concerning preference
in appointment and retention for
war veterans, and clarifies existing
provisions concerning the use of
additional credits for such veterans.
The Commission's bill, recognlaing the shortage of help in certain
areas of the State and in certain
hospitals and institutions, proposes to authorize commissions to
relax
citizenship
requirements
where such shortage is certified
to exist, pending the filing and
prosecuting of a petition for citizenship by such persons seeking
such employment.
Regional Civil Service
It also authorizes the establishment of regional civil service commissions or regional personnel officers by adjoining counties or
cities.
Gives indefinite tenure to ytllage employees in the competitire
class, which would include policemen appointed after the act be(Continued on Page 16)
DEWEY PENSION
$2400 TILL 1967,
THEN $12,412
ALBANY, Jan. 31—State Comptroller Arthur Levitt has revealed
details
of
former
Governor
Dewey's retirement under option
four of the New York State Employees' Retirement System.
This option provides: "such optional benefit or benefits as the
Comptroller shall approve and
which shall be the actuarial
equivalent of his retirement allowance at the time of retirement."
Mr. Dewey's choice provides an
annual retirement allowance of
$2,400 from January
1, 1955
through March 23, 1967 and
thereafter an 'annual allowance
of $12,412.
The latter allowance is payable,
under retirement law, for as long
as Mr. or Mrs. Dewey shall live.
Ir Mr. Dewey were to die before March 24, 1967 (when he
would be 65), his widow would receive an annual allowance of
$5,000 until March 24, 1967, and
$12,412 yearly for the rest of her
life.
Under the Retirement statute,
the basic retirement allowance to
which Governor Dewey would
have been entitled was $9,010.50
per annum for his life.
The actuarial calculations for
the modified allowance were made
by the Actuary for the New York
State Employees' Retirement System and were reviewed by Mr.
George B. Buck, the consulting
Actuary for the System.

ALBANY, Jan. 31 — Governor

T. DeGralf, counsel.
While the substance of the conversation was not revealed, Mr.

Available in February
Without Medical Tests
ALBANY, Jan. 31 — The month
of Feb. 1955 has been designated as the time when aligible members of The Civil Service Employees Association may obtain
group life insurance without medical examination. This offer is
open to all eligible members of the
Association who have not attained
their 50th birthday and who have

basis of a medical examination.
BeneflU Raised
The additional benefits under
the Association's group life insurance have been raised from 10%
to 15% without extra cost. This
policy also provides an additional
amount equal to the group life
insurance for accidental death as
defined in the policy at no extra
cost. Up to November 1. 1955, if
an insured member dies with
$5,000 base amount in force, the
payment to tlie beneficiary would
be $5,750. In the event of accidental death as defined in the
policy an additional $5,750 would
be payable — a total payment to
the beneficiary of $11,500.
These extra benefits are now
enjoyed by ail members now insured under the Association's
group life policy. Members who
apply during February and are
insured will receive the same extra benefits as those now Insured.
Literature has been Issued describing the group life insurance
plan of the Association. If you

fectlve yesterday, about 220,000
indefinite employees were converted to career employees, and
235,000 more indefinites, who also entered the Government on a
competitive basis but wlio have
not yet had three years of substantially continuous Federal service, became career-conditional.
Prom this category, they may
eventually move to career status
on completion of the three years.
Pension Switch for 380,000
The new career-conditional system brings to an end emergency
procedures adopted under the
spur of the Korean War. Virtually
all appointments since 1950 have
been on an Indefinite basis, even
when employees who had already
won permanent status were rehired. Overall aim of the new system is to stabilize the Federal
employment picture, to establisli
career opportunities for well-qualified men and women, and to protect the career employee, so far as
practicable, agains unavoidable
employment fluctuations. The career worker has greater job protection than workers in any of the
other three classifications—careerconditional, indefinite, or temporary.
conditional
employees
enjoy
Both
career
and
careerthe beneats of the civil service retirement system. The Commission
estimated that only about 75,000
of the 455,000 former indefinites
were already under that retirement system. The remaining 380,000 will begin paying into the
civil-service retirement
system,
rather than the Social Security
system, with the pay period that
began on January 23 or begins
later.
Under the civil-service retirement system employees pay 6 percent of their salaries into the retirement, fund, where It draws interest at three percent compounded annually. If an employee leaves
Federal employment prior to completion of 20 years' service, he
may withdraw his contributions,
plus interest. There is a guarantee that the employee or his survivors will be paid the total
amount contributed plus interest,
in a lump-sum payment, or may
select an annuity.
Most of the remaining 174,000
indefinite employees now on the
rolls will have the opportunity of
taking competitive exams and of
moving
into
career-conditional
and eventually career c'.assiflcatlons as tiielr names are reached
for appointment to the new status
on lists of eligibles, tlie Commission said.

SOLOD
40-Hour Week for State Institutions
FOii 'iii/iKS we have been reading about NYC being short ot
money. The annual pilgrimage to Albany of City officials seeking
more State aid is well publicized. In the lace of tills money shortage,
the accomplishments of the New York City administration towards
its employees Is magnificent.
Stite employees are asked where will the money come from for
a 40-hour week in institutions? Where did the money come from in
NYC? The City police liave gone from 48 to 40 hours, the firemen
from 54 to 40 hours, Correction olflcers from 48 to 40 hours, and
sanitation workers from 48 to 40 hours — in some cases with an increase in pay!
Tlie Stale institution employees are asking for 40 hours with the
same take-home pay. Various groups in State service interpret this
as a 20 percent raise and say, "Me too." In 1936-1937, when institution employees went from a 12-liour day to the eight-hour day,
that was not regarded as a 50 percent raise, and no State employee
shouted, "Me too." Of course most groups in State employment have
lagged behind in salaries; the tiiousands of jobs being reclassified
at present is proof. We in Correction liope tliese inequities in salary
will be adjusted satisfactorily, but see no cause for a me too attitude.
Survey Recommended
Extension of the 5-day 40-hour week as soon as uniformly possible." That is the goal.
Mayor Wagner of NYC recently stated that increased efficiency
in installing the 40-hour week saved tiie City $2,100,003: in one group
425 new employees were necessary, instead of an e. .
od 1.100.
The State could learn a le.s.son here. An immediate survey of all institutional jobs should be undertaken with a view to c. .Tjlidating
various .services so that tlie 40-hour week could be accomplished with
a minimm of additional employees.
The time is now; it is unifcrnily po.ssible now!
JAMES LYONS, new Deputy C( mmi.s.';ioner of Ari''

luck, Jim!
Question, Please
AAAAAA^AAAAAAAAMAAMAAAAAAAA/kAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
We have recently been advised
by the Westcliester County Commissioner's Office of Department j
of Public Welfare that employees
who are required to live on the
premises for the benefit of the [
County service and wiio are required to pay for their room and
board will, not have to pay an income tax on this maintenance.
This amounts to about $150 a
year.
However, in the Civil Service
LEADER of October 5, an article
by H. J. Bernard says "State employees who live and eat in State
institutions at the instance of the
employer, still do so to suit his
convenience at the expense of
their own and will not have to
pay an income tax on meals and
lodgings retroactive to January 1,
1954." Is this .so?
Mr. Bernard writes: "Besides
exclusion of the value of maintenance from January 1, 1954 refunds on taxes paid in 1949 to
1953 are possible if timely demand
was made and if the Civil Service
Employees' Ass-ociation wins its
suit now in the Federal Appeals
Court. Under the law as it existed
for this five-year period applications for refund had to be made
within two years after the return
was filed. Under the new law, a f fecting 1954 and later incomes,
the limitation is two years from
the last day to file the return,
irrespective
of
any
extension
granted for other purposes. This
does not change the refund rule
for past years."

Answer — The new law applies
to 1954 and subsequent years,
freeing maintenance fiom tax,
under the conditions described. As
to prior years, during which tax
was paid on maintenance there
will be no refund, unless a timely
protest was made against paying
that tax, and the court upholds
the Civil Service Em.oloyees Association's argumsut the tax was
illegally required. Both conditions
must be met before refund would
follow.

Blue Cross-Blue Shield Applications Available
On Payroll Decjclion Basis
ALBANY, Jan. 31 — All State
tmployees who have not yet taken
advantage . of the opportunity
afforded by the Civil Service
Employees Association to obtain
Blue Cross-Blue Shield protection
for themselves and their families
are urged to get their applications
on file by March 1. State employees
whose papers are received by the
hospitalization and medical-surglcft.1 ser\'lces by that date will
come under the payroll deduction
plan — with resultant savings —
on the late May payroll deduction.
This will start their monthly insurance payments in advance as
of June 16. and they will be covered from that date.
The A.ssociatlon brings to attention of State workers the fact that
under the Association's cooperative plan, the CSEA combines the
accounting and other work necessary to make the payroll deductions with the system it already
operates for its member.ship's
group life insurance and accident
and health insurance. The small
3-cent semi-monthly charge which
the CSEA receives for this service
represents a fraction of the actual
cost, and subscribing State em-

The Association is confident that
State employees who take advantage of the payroll deduction
system for this important insurance coverage will become CSEA
members. However, there is no
obligation to .join; non-members
are free to utilize the CSEA's services in this respect: and all State
employees, with few exceptions,
are eligible.
Who May S-gn Up
Any person on a State payroll,
except those on legislative payrolls from which no deductions
may be made, is eligible. However
retired employees are not eligible.
For New Employees
A new State employee may file
application and deduction authorization with the Blue Cross-Blue
Shield within the first 90 days of
employment with the State, and
the coverage will take effect on
the 16th of the month following
the first deduction of a montii's
subscription charge. Except for
new employees who file within
their first 90 days of employment,
future applications will be accepted only twice yearly. Authoriza-

tlons will be accepted only by
March 1 and September 1.
Present Subscribers Can Save
Those State employees who are
already members of the Blue
Cross-Blue Shield but not on payroll deduction may switch over to
the payroll deduction plan by obtaining a payroll deduction authorization from the appropriate
office (listed below). They will be
billed directly by the Blue CrossBlue Shield, or by Blue Cross if
they do not have the full service,
for the time prior to the payroll
deduction period, and then will
come under the reduced deduction rate.
Where to Apply
The function of the CSEA in
this system is solely to assist the
State employees by making possible the advantages of payroll
deduction. For application form,
authorizations for deduction, descriptive literature, and any information, contact the service
which covers your area.

Wrongfully
1, 1955
an Employee
Dismissed
C ^ o n t r a s t these t w o cases:
1. A Federal employee with 23 years' service is dismissed f o r "technical deficiencies," appeals to the United
States Civil Service Commission befoz-e which he is represented by counsel, is found to have been w r o n g f u l l y dismissed, and is ordered reinstated, v i t h $8,000 back pay.
2. A State employee with 25 years' service is dismissed f o r alleged misconduct, appeals to the State Civil
Service Commission, which fmds the dismissal was unjustified, a n d — t h a t ' s all. N o order of reinstatement; no back
pay, of course. T h e Commission can't do anything about it,
h o w e v e r unju.st the dismissal, except to put him on a pref e r r e d list and permit him to be transferred if anyone will
take him.
In the Federal situation, the D e f e n s e Department is
given 10 days in which to reinstate an engineer w r o n g f u l l y dismissed.
T h e director w h o dismissed the State employee, a cook
at Hudson R i v e r State Hospital, refuses to take the employee back. Even a f t e r the Civil Service Commission has
sustained the employee's appeal, the director publicly announced his refusal to reinstate. T h e employee, Patrick J.
Delahoyde, then had no I'ecourse but to bring suit f o r reinstatement, and the matter came b e f o r e Justice H a r r y E.
Shirick in A l b a n y Supreme Court, with Mr. D e l a h o y d e
represented by the firm of D e G r a f f , Foy, Conway, HoltHarris and K e l l y . T h e issues concern not only Mr. Delahoyde personally, but all employees of the State and its
subdivisions.
Justice Shirick granted the petition. H e said the statute does not give the Civil Service Commission p o w e r to
order reinstatement, but remarked that the duty to reinstate a vindicated employee would seem nevertheless to
" r e s t upon the appointing otticer as a matter of l a w . . . .
T h e petitioner having been cleared of such charges, his
removal becomes u n l a w f u l . "
CSEA Fought Many Years for These Rights
T h e Civil Service Employees Association has been
fighting over many years f o r acceptance of the proposition
that the Civil Service Commission should have authority
to order reinstatement in such cases as that of Mr. Delahoyde ; and also for the related right of an e m p l o y e e t o
have a hearing and representation by counsel in disciplinary proceedings. T h e P r e l l e r Commission this w e e k introduced legislation to grant these t w o basic safeguards. Governor Harriman, too, is reported ready to recommend such
a course. A t the behest of the Civil Service Employees Association, Senator Manning and Assemblyman D e m o have
already introduced reinstatement legislation, as they have
f o r several years past. A l s o this w e e k , C S E A bills providing the right of a hearing with representation by counsel
In disciplinary proceedings will be introduced. T h e struggle
cf the employees appears close to victory.

B R O A D SCOPE ASKED
FOR SHORTER W O R K - W E E K
Editor, The LEADER:
A letter from me on the 40-hour
week for State Institution employees wa.s publl.shed In the December 28 issue of The LEADER.
In the January 11 issue was publishdtt a reply signed by 15 Mt.
Morris State Hospital employees.
I cited instances in which other
jurisdictions granted the 40-hour
week at the same take-home pay
that was paid for a 48-hour week.
The N Y C Transit Authority, Connecticut and New Jer-sey were given as examples. Other jurisdictions, including local ones in New
York State, reduced 44 hours to
42 on the same basis.
The reply by the 15 ignores .some
of the essential points I made.
That reply refers to Chapter 270
of the Laws of 1947, establishing
40-hour basis for institutional employees, and cites that in some jobs
the work week is 44 or 48 hours,
at additional compensation, at
straight time. True overtime is a
premium rate.
The reply says that I favor
freezing into base pay the present
overtime compensation, for the
44- and 48-hour week workers,
with no such benefit for those
working 40 to 44 hours. That's not
true.
What Others Should Get
Employees
now working 44
hours should have the 40-hour
week with the present take-home
44-hour pay. Note thati^the 44-hour
groups have advanced half way,
since 1947, toward the 40-hr. goal.
Whether those now working 48
hours can advance at one step to

CITIES STRESS
ABLIOATION
TO M A I N T A I N OFF-STREET
PARKING
TO CUT D O W N traffic congestion, most modern zoning ordinances requires all new buildings to be supplied with ofT-street parking. So far so good, says the American Society of Planning Officials^
But assuming that required off-street parking space is provided to
begin with, what guarantee is there that it will continue to be provided?
If the parking space is on the same piece of land as the building
it serves, there is less danger that the owner will fail to continue to
provide off-street parking. But suppose the required off-street parking
space is not under the same ownership as the building? In theso
cases, there is more chance for violation. Separate lots for parking
can be tempting sites for building, loading, or storage purposes.
As a result, the society says, more and more communities are
finding it a good idea to specify in their zoning ordinances that the
obligation to provide off-street parking space is one that continues
as long as the building is in use.
West Palm Beach makes the continuing use of the building contingent on the continuing existence of the parking lot.
As for required parking space located on a lot different from the
one on which the building rests, Colorado Springs says ". . . there
shalf be recorded in the office of the City Clerk of Colorado Springs a
covenant by the owner or owners of said lot that such parking spaces
will be maintained so long as said building is maintained." In Chicago, a similar requirement Is made, but it is .stiffer in that it stipulates that the separated^ot must be under the same ownership as the
main building or structure that causes the need for parking facilities.
eligibility on current eligible lists f o r appointment . . .
whose names have not been suspended because they w e r e
not interested in indefinite appointments, and w h o are
available f o r career-conditional appointments, may request
that their name be restored to the eligible list as long as
it is still being used."
Y o u aren't a grammarian, although you blanch at bad
grammar. Y o u ' d f o r g i v e it if you could undei-stand w h a t
this means. M a y b e you'd better not apply f o r anything so
complicated, you begin to think.
W i t h some frequency, w e hear brave words about
how government announcements are being simpliCied, so
that ordinary per.sons can understand them.
But the g o b b l e d e g o o k goes on and on.
T h e examples can be multiplied, at all levels of g o v ernment. W h a t is an " a t t e n d a n t " in the Mental H y g i e n e
Department? W h a t does he attend? W h y should not his
title be "psychiatric a i d e , " a more adequate description
of his duties? Or take the j a w b i e a k e r , "vocational rehabilitation counselor." This is so chilling that the person
actually needing such help has no idea it's available. Does
it mean j o b guidance? Does it mean job guidance f o r the
handicapped? Or, how about that awe-inspiring institution,
the State Division of Classification and Compensation?
Ever try to explain that one to .someone not having an acquaintance with civil service? W h y not call it simply the
Office of Job-Titles and Pay, or even more simply, the O f fice of State Salaries? Or take another misnomer — the
Public Service Commission. E v e r y b o d y holding a public
j o b is in the public service. So this agency's name is just
confusing. It should be re-titled so that its name explains
its functions — it should be called the Public Utility Commission. Then no one could be confused.
There's a big j o b f o r some enterprising opponent of
confusion, disorder, g o b b l e d e g o o k , and mumbo-jumbo in
government. W h o ' s going to do it?
Criminal Hospital Aides
Upgraded; Matrons Next?
t is good to report that attendants in the State's criminal
hospitals are finally to be upgraded to the point they
should have reached long ago — the same pay as prison
guards. T h e r e never was any logic in paying them less. J.
Eiarl K e l l y , Director of Classification, is simply recognizing
a clear inequity when he says he will recommend the upgrading.
N o w , what about the matrons in the women's penal
institutions? T h e y have long contended that their duties
are the equal of those p e r f o r m e d by the male prison guards.
Presuming that this is true, then the principle of equal pay
f o r equal work is being violated by paying them less. Significantly, the Correction Department has not supported
the women in their claim. M a y we ask why not?.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31—"Totally inadequate" is the opinion of
the National Federation of Post
Office Clerks about President Eisenhower's proposals for an average 5 per cent Federal pay raise.
E. C. Hallbeck, legislative director of the Federation, said employees are more than $600 behind
their spendable income of 1939,
and haven't received any pay
raise in three and one-half years.
The tests are: Performance and

to them, because of the survivor-

from State systems, and the increased insurance benefits.
Under Social Security
Under the revised Social Security Law it becomes more practical for a State, or its communities, either to bring under Social
Security those employees excluded
from State retirement systems, or
who were eligible but did not see
fit to join such a system, and in
addition to permit for the first
time the coordination of State
system benefits with those of Social Security. There is no project
to merge the two, or to abandon
State or local pension systems in
favor of Social Security.
Division of Opinion
ITiere is a division of opinion
among public employees on the
advisability of such coordination.
Particularly teacher, fire, police,
and postal groups have expressed
opposition, based largely on fear.
The plans of coordination usually
adopted do not increa.se the lower
retirement ages of State systems
to the age of 65 of Social Security,

Averell Harriman that it was encouraged by passages in his inaugural address and his message
to the LegislaUire. While the
Governor did not directly refer to
police service or to the policeman's
job, the Conference noted, he
touched on the "upsurge in crime
and lawlessne.ss."
The Conference informed him
In a letter that for 10 years it had
urged a five-day 40-hour work
week for policemen and also advocated basic training for policemen. The letter signed by Executive Secretary Peter Keresman,
said these are Imperative if the
people of the State are to have
best protection and law enforcement. The Conference also a.sked

Hoover Commission Split
On Asking U. 5. to Study
Loyalty'Se€urity
Programs
W A S H I N G T O N , Jan. 31 — The
Hoover Commission, studying ways
of improving the administration
of the U. S. government. Is split
over the security-loyalty i.ssue.
One sub-committee recommended that a commission be appointed by the government to study
the subject, and report recommendations. But Arthur S. Plemming, former U. S. Civil Service
Commissioner, now president of
Ohio Weslyan University, and on
leave from the university, serving
the government in three capacities, prevented the main committee, which he heads, from affirming the recommendation of the
sub-committee. Now the question
goes before the full Hoover Commission.
FK mmine Clamps Oown
President Eisenhower ha.s declared that the appointment of
such a commission, which several
employee groups favor, is unnecessary. Knowing
that. Mr.
Flemming acted fast to avoid any
embarrassment of the President.
However, the Hoover Commission
has an ample portfolio of security
and loyalty cases, and many of its
members are keen for the appointment of a commission.
The sub-committee, or taslc
force, is headed by Harold W.
Doods, president of Princeton University. The task force's report was
not released for publication. Only
brief mention of the securityloyalty subject Is iricluded In the
report, said a member of that
sub-committee, as the report is
comprehensive in scope of topics.
However, the part dealing with
loyalty and security risks among
U. S. employees closely follows the
rea.soning of Senator Hubert H.
Humphrey (D., Minn.) and Representative Peter Prelinghuysen
(R., N. J.). Mr. Flamming saw to
it that all mention of security
and loyalty programs was deleted.
The impact of those subjects on
personnel administration is recognized as a "hot potato," though
the pedagogues express the idea in
more cultural langviage.
Meanwhile $125,000 is being
sought by Democratic legislators
for an inquiry Into the loyalty-security programs, against which
employees complain that they give
department heads leeway to fire
employees as they see fit, without
even a hearing, or the right to
confront accusers, or, sometimes,
even without knowledge of what
is the accusation against them,
except that they are suspected of

of Inequities in their pay.
John Kelly, Jr., assistant counsel for the CSEA, told the group
that in his view a legal basis exists
for obtaining pay Increases; and
that legislation would be prepared
to accomplish the purpose.
Civic Employees Organizing Committee ( C I O ) , in its weekly bulletin to members, said:
"All indications point to e x haustive inquiries in the very near
future of the 'numbers game,' the
techniques, the damages to Individuals and agencies, and the aid
and comfort afforded thereby to
the enemies of our way of life.
W i t h all the fanfare attendant on
a very few cases it dawns on many
that there are undoubtedly scores
of similiar unjustified dismissals
hidden away in the records. T o
bring those cases to the open and
to rectify those as well as those
already publicized Is viewed by
proponents as the one major assignment to restore a sense of
balance to the American scene.
The day of witch hunting clothed

Comment
(Continued from Page 6)
the 40-hour week or should advance first to the 44-hour week
and later to the 40-hour one is
naturally a matter for study and
negotiations. Of
course those
working 44 hours must keep the
same pay when going to 40 hours,
just as they did when going from
48 to 44.
What is termed a "sop" to the
40-hour people in holding out "the
glowing promise that some day in
the indistant future maybe the
40-hour week will be lowered still
further to 35 or even 30 hours," is
a di.stortlon of what I wrote. My
remarks about the reduced work
week for the future were based on
tiie sober Economic Report of the
Joint Congressional Committee to
the President. Recent articles on
that have appeared in newspapers
we all read. I said nothing about
a 30-hour week. However, what
would be wrong with a 30-hour
week, since it's brought up? Time
may put it on our program sooner
than we now think possible.
I regret that my statement, "If
they are underpaid for the work
performed that is another matter," was misinterpreted as sarcasm. That statement was intended only to mean that employees
now on the 40-hour week are not
immediately involved in the 48
for 40 and the 44 for 40.
In 1947 some employees whose
week was 48 hours had their week
reduced to 44 without pay reduction. At the same time ofBce workers and others who had been working 37 and one-half hours had
their week lengthened to 40 hours,
but did not receive added pay. A
rank injustice, was it not? Furthermore, today the situation exists
where, say, a stenographer in a
State instiution works a 40-hour
week and an employee with the
same title, doing comparable work
in an Albany ofRce, works a 371/2
hour week. They both receive the
same salary. If I've been correctly
informed, what should be done
for the 40-hour institutional employees? I'm sure that the great
majority of us who strive for the
"48 and 44 for 40" will support
just demands wholeheartedly.

STATE PARK AIDES
RESENT LONG HOURS
Editor. The LEADER:
Did the election of a Democrat
as governor mean slave labor for
the Long Island State Park Comnii.ssion employees?
Emergency crews work twentyone straight nights, 8:00 P.M. until 4:00 A.M., without a day oft
and no overtime. In emergencies
of icy conditions or snow, the
average man there works one hundred and flfty hours, in that twenty-one day period (as we did In
the pa.st three weeks). If that is
progress in working conditions in
New York State, give us back the
slave ages.
We believe such conditions unjust and contrary to New York
State labor laws.

FREE' INSURANCE
CALLED MISNOMER
Editor, The LEADER:
Your issue of January 11, 1955,
carried an article under an Albany
dateline to the effect that "free
insurance" on the Association's
life insurance plan has been increased. As a former member of
the insurance committee, I am of
the opinion that "free insurance"
is a misnomer. Actually, the
claims, overhead and expenses are
paid out of the premiums paid by
the members of the Association
who iiave applied for and secured
the life insurance. The additional
insurance is paid for by the excess
premiums still remaining after all
claim.s, overhead and expenses
have been paid.

N E W Y O R K C I T Y , Jan. 31 —
T h e highlight of this month's
seminar at Psychiatric Institute
Was the presentation of a 25-year
pin by Dr. L. C. Kolb, director, .to
Dr. Jacob Shatzky, head librarian,
newly iwomotcd to senior librarian
In medicine.
P.sychlatrlc Institute is as proud
®f Dr. Shatzky, as It Is of Its library, for the two have become
synonymous. When Dr. Shatzky
came here in 1930, there was only
ft small library with a few bundled books. The library has grown
Since then to 26,000 volumes, in
addition to some 1,800 doctors'
«Ji.<i.sertations, reprints, and pamphlets concerning psychiatry and
neurology. Today
psychiatrists,
doctors, and students from all
over the world visit the library
for study. Many visit and talk with
Its colorful, witty librarian. There
ifi hardly a book on psychiatric
history which does not mention
the Psychiatric Institute's library
as a source of information.
The institute is particularly
proud of the Freud collection which
Includes Sigmund Freud's private
library, consisting of some 2,000
titles, many of them with marginal notes and coinments written
by Freud. There are also 400 titles
of books concerning dreams written in 11 languages and going
back several hundred years. A recent aquisition is the oldest dream
book in existence, written in Latin
by Hieronymus Cardanus in 1562.
T h e library also possesses the only
Grerman edition of this same book,
published in Basle, Switzerland,
ki 1563.
I t is hard to imagine the library
under any other than Dr. Shatviky,
who has made it as individual as
himself. He studied in Vienna and
came to the United States in 1923.
He is the author of many books
and reviews in psychiatry, medicine and neurology, and in 1954
was awarded a prize for his "History of Poland." Dr. Shatzky has
travelled extensively, lecturing In
South America universities. R e cently he went to South Africa
to deliver lectures at the University of Johannesburg, His most
famous work is " T h e Complete
Dictionary of Psychiatry."
Spirit of '76! The Department
of Internal Medicine celebrated
the 76th birthday of Harry Wolf
with a surprise party. People from
all over P.I. came in to congratulate him. Mr. Wolf received many
gifts and a huge birthday cake
for which enough candles could
not be found. But the problem of
blowing out 76 candles at once can
be nothing to a man who has handled his years with as much vitality and spirit as Mr. W o l f !
Tickets are now on sale for the
employees' party and dance to be
held February 12. See your delegate and make plans to attend.
