Powers Demands
Reasons for State
Pay Turndowns
Kelly Replies
Helsn'tCompelled
To Explain Why
ALBANY. June 27 — J. Earl
Kelly, director of classification,
and compensation, refuses to tell
the reasons why his agency turned
down the appeals of nearly 52,000
State employees.
Employees point out that without knowing the reasons, it is difficult, perhap.s impos.sible, to carry
their appeals further.
Mr. Kelly has said, in a letter
to the Civil Service Employees Association. that he is under no compulsion to reveal the reasons for
his actions. The A.ssoclation, which
is pressing the i.ssue, points out
that reason.s had been revealed
formerly, and wants to know why
they are being kept secret now.
Sum Was Inadequate
On the political side, the story
appears simple: The State appropriated le.ss than $1,000,000 to
take care of pay adjustments resulting from the appeals, and all
the upward changcs had to be
••fltlc-d" into this pre-conceived
sum.
be nothins more destructive of
morale than to feel up against
arbitrary decision not to give written reasons."
Kelly's Contention
The Powers letter was written
on March 31. before the decisions
had been made in public. Mr. Kelly
did not reply until June 8, and his
letter said, in part:
" W e must a.ssume that the allocations which were made to
grade.5 in the new schedule on
October 1. 1954. were correct and
fair. The members of the Advisory Committee, our experienced
staff technicians, and the Division Duector devoted months of
intensive study and research to
the correction of inequities which
existed under tlie old compensation plitn. The result of these
studies went into operation with
the allocation of all classes to
new grades. . . . There was no
statutory requirement to explain
these allocations.
'Presuiii)ition of Correctness'
"Section 11 of Chapter 307 permitted those who felt that we had
impropci'.y allocated their titles
on October 1 to apply for a review and change of salary grade.
Becau.se of the presumption of
correctnes,<;. those who asserted
error had to show afllrmatively
that such error had been committed in the original allocation.
Therefore, it is proper to say that
in all cases where we disapproved
the.se applications, we did so because tl\e appellants had failed to
establish the Incorrectness of the
original grade which was assigned.
We do not feel that there is any
compulsion, from the standpoint
of sound administrative practice,
to give reasons beyond the one
which we have here given."

SPECIAL D E L E G A T E S M E E T I N G JULY 29
T O CONSIDER CSEA D I E S INCREASE
A L B A N Y , June 27—John F. Powers, president of the Civil Service Employees Association,
announced this week that a special meeting of
delegates would be called for Friday, July 29, to
consider the proposal for an increase in Association dues. An increase to a figure "not to exceed"
$10 has been recommended by the CSEA Board
of Directors. Chapters will be notified of final
arrangements for the meeting, which is expected
to be held in the DeWitt Clinton Hotel, Albany.
How Is County
Sat. Closing Coyernor Wants
Law Working? More Efficiency
ALBANY, June 27 — Just how
strong is the Saturday closing law
for county employees? Can it be
withheld under any circumstances? Is everybody complying with
it?
These questions engaged representatives of county employees
meeting in Albany recently.
Joha J. Kelly, Jr., assistant
counsel for the As.sociation, wrote
the group his findings. Said Mr.
Kelly:
" I discussed the matter with the
Municipal Service Division of
the Comptroller's Office. They told
me they liad had no requests from
the countie.i with respect to the
law nor has the Attorney General
had any request. Ht^ said they
could not act unless and until
some county raised the question
as to the law or someone in a
county raised a question as to
alleged non-compliance with the
law.
All Know About It
" I aiso discussed the matter
with the Executive Secretary of
the County Ofticers A.ssociation,
Donald Scribner. He told me that
the County Officers Association

III a letter protesting the failure to give reasons for turning
down pay appeal.^. Association
President John F. Powers said:
"Surely you recognize that to
effectively utilize tlie existing appeals machinery established by
law requires . . . reasons for consideration by the appellate body
as well as by the appellants."
Mr. Powers continued:
(Ci>ntiiiu«d on Page 16)
" I t is not sufficient to simply
proclaim a categorical 'Yes' or
'No.' It seems to us that to fail
to give valid reasons in plain language in a matter of such importance . . . is unsound.
" I t should be pointed out that
under the present system of job
evaluation in State service the
first opportunity of appellants to
know definitely the reasons for
your decision is after the decision
denying or di.sapproving that appeal. You now deprive employees
even this . . . information . . .
even though this . . . limits the
ability of employees and their representatives to maintain logic and
reason on appeal.

ALBANY. June 27—Every State
department and agency held in
the Harriman administration has
received a letter urging "immediate action" on the Governor's
administrative improvement program.
The letter, sent out by Budget
Director Paul H. Appleby, described the basic purpose of the
program as designed "to give the
people of New York better service."
Each commissioner was asked
to Investigate his own agency to
find ways to reduce costs, improve
work-ways
and
obtain
greater efi'ectiveness.
What He Wants none
Among the orders sent to the
departments weer these:
"Slow and unnecessarily cumbersome handling of matters of
citizen concern should be attacked.
"Costs shoudl be examined in
a continuing effort to reduce
them. Income possibilities should
be explored.
"Organizatoinal
structure
should be improved for maximum
eflfectiveness and responsibility.
"Unnecessary reports and marginal activities should be discontinued."

that public employees "want to
do a good job and will enjoy participating in a sustained drive for
better administration."

T H E Y O U N G psychiatrist at a Mental Hygiene hospital was
taking a group of patients for a stroll. One patient shouted, "Number
24," and all his fellows burst into laughter. A second patient shouted
"Number 17," and the boys nearly doubled up with hilarity.
The psychiatrist, anxious to make himself popular with bis
charges, sidled up to one of them and asked: "Mac, why do the bojs
laugh after somebody calls out a number?"
Mac replied: " Y o u see. Doc, every number stands for a JokeL
Instead of telling the joke, we just sing out the number. It's a kind
of shorthand. W e keep all the jokes in a little book with the numbers
written next to them."
"That's a wonderful idea," responded the young doctor. Then bs
whispered: "Look, Mac, maybe this is out of turn, but I wonder tf
I might have a look at the little book."
"Sure thing. Doc," replied Mac.
Next day, as the group was again going for its stroll, the psychiatrist shouted out, "Number 52."

"Number 19."
Dead silence.

Dillenback^s
Famous
Anecdotes
RUFl'S niLLENBACK has had something to do with the collection of personal income taxes since the State first started this
••painful" annual operation back in 1920.
On July 16, he'll retire as director of the State Tax Department's
Collection Bureau, an exempt administrative post. His first job was
tax auditor, appointed from the first civil service list ever established
for the State Income Tax Bureau.
Tough, Exacting, Fair
"Dllly", as he is known by his associates, has run a tough collection outfit . . . an exacting boss yet completely fair and considerate
. . . and a man with a sens eof humor.
He tells the story about the investigator who covered the countryside looking for a delinquent taxpayer. Finally, lie stopped in a
country store and asked where he could And a certain back road. A
bystander offered to show the way.
They traveled into an obscure part of the area before the friendly
stranger said: "Here's as far as I go, but this is the road. What address do you want?"
The collector checked the address, "Cay," he asketl, "do you
lire here? You owe me some taxes."
He went back to the office with the cash.
Mr. Dillenbeck's wife is a formior Tax Department employee.
Once she was responsible for shutting down the Incomc Tax Bureau
for half a day. The story is one of Mr. D's favorites.
It seems it was a bitter cold day and the office was chilly, Mrs.
Dillenback put the office thermometer in the water cooler until the
mercury almost dropped out of sight, and then hung it up agin.
The bureau boss saw it and started shivering and shaking, and
ordered the oflice closed for the rest of the day because of the "unbearable cold."
Mr. Dillenback doesn't plan to give up tax work. He and Mrs.
Dillenback will head for Cape Cod on July 17, but in the fall when
they return to Albany, it will be tax consultant work for the man who
is actually one of the very few leading autiiorities on the State personal income tax law and department regulations.
Called Many Things
As collections boss, Mr. Dillenback has been called many things,
and addressed as "Rufe" or "Dilly", but it took Commissioner George
M. Bragalini to produce a new knickname — "Ivan".
He Roars Over This One
One of the best-liked people in the department, he roars over
this one. At an income tax clambake. Mrs. Dillenback sat next to an
employee who was a stranger to her. This guy was very chatty —
and when Dilly walked past, he (the employee) said to her:
"See that old s . . . o . . . b? He's my boss, and what a guy he is
to work for. Do you know him?"
Mrs. D. calmly had another helping of clams and said: "Sure,
he's my husband."
The employee choked and excused himself. Everyone still wonders how a person coudl so completely disappear.
Any one who thinks of State service as a "soft touch" should
take a look at the Dillenback record. He won his promotions via
the merit system, put in up to 14 hours a day when necessary, and
didn't take compensatory time off for every extra moment on the job.
Ask the guy who "grew up" with the State's income tax system,
and he'll tell you that the public gets a full work day out of the
State worker.
He has worked for private industry and one of the country's
leading corporations and he'll vouch for the job done by the rank
and file State worker. He'll stick by this comment;
He has worked for private industry and one of the country's

RETIREMENT CALLED A RIGHT—QliESTIONED AS A BENEFIT
WHILE a California court ruled that public employees have a
right to retirement pensions, a group of social scientists was planning
to test a current theory that compulsory retirement may disturb the
life habits so much that It brings on illness and hastens death.
A California district court of appeals held that Long Beach,
Calif., was wrong when it revoked pension rights of employees with
less than 20 years of service. It said that "the employees had a vested
right and the city, by repealing all pension provisions, has attempted
to impair its contractual obligations." But the court held that the
city could base retirement benefits on average salary diuing the five
years just before retirement and could raise workers' contributions
from 2 per cent to 10 per cent.
The other side of the story concerns the department of sociology
and anthropology at Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. The department will lest the validity of two propositions: (1) that in the past
people worked themselves to early graves because they lacked provisions for support in their declining years and (2) that mandatory
retirement may take away a person's chief interest in life and thus
cause physical and mental breakdowns.
The researchers will test the two theories by trying to find out
what the effect of retirement has been on those who retire and
those who keep on working. They will pick two groups from persons
whose circumstances are similar In most respects except that one
group stopped working when elderly and the other group continued
ou the job despite advuaced ^HAii,

Pending also is the case against
Allen S. Peterman. Justice Samuel
Gold adjourned the two cases until July 1.
'
The Legal Question
The six investigators refused to
ansv/er questions concerning their
personal finances.
A test of the Investigation Commissioner's powers is involved. The
question is whether the witnesses
can be held in contempt for refusal to answer his questions. The
power of the Investigation Commissioner to subpoena witnesses
is uncontested.
Commissioner Johnson was not
involved in the action before
Justice Gold.
Commissioner Shapiro said that
additional
actions
are
being
brought against other SLA aides.

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE
By JOHN F. POWERS
President
Civil
Service
About
I'.niployees
Audits
Association
and
Financittl
Statements
I ' V E R E C E I V E D several letters dealing with the dues
increase question. Most of the writers express intelligent
opinions and provide information that is useful in determining h o w employees feel about the proposal. One or t w o
have asked f o r an " a u d i t " of Association finances, financial statements, budgets, etc.
So, to these letter-writers, I'd like to convey the information
that the Association's finances are audited annually by an outsida
independent firm of accountants. Stockman and Stephens, of Albany.
The findings of this audit are public.
All Get Treasurer's Report
In addition, at each meeting of the Board of Directors, the
Trea.surer's report, outlining to the penny every item of income and
expenditure, is mimeographed and submitted to every Board member.
Moreover, all items of expenditure must be approved by the
Board of Directors in advance. I can tell you that some hot and
heavy discussion frequently precedes such approval. Your Board of
Directors does not throw money around lightly. The Board must be
convinced of the utility and importance of the Item before it exercises the constitutional prerogative of approving or disapproving.
Delegates Get Complete Report
At each of the two annual meetings of delegates, the complete
financial report of the Association is submitted to everyone of the
500-odd delegates.
We have an auditing committee and a budget committee which
keep careful tabs on funds and reports to the Board of Directors.
CSEA Operates in Open
Probably no organization anywhere maintains more stringent
controls over its funds than does the Civil Service Employees Association. No organization—certainly no employee organization—operates
more in a goldfish bowl. Our financial reports are public. They are ia
the hands of the elected representatives of the employees. They are
discussed fully and freely. No one can siphon off or divert funds.
The use of every penny is subjected to the severest scrutiny of this
Board. Never in our history has the breath of scandal ever touched
the financial operations of the Civil Service Employees Association;
pray God it never will. We have taken every legitimate precaution to
make sure of this.
Certainly rolicies May Be Questioned
We are human, and the wisdom of some Association policies, and
the expenditures for making these policies effective, may be questioned; just as the policies enunciated by the State Legislature and
the Governor may be, and frequently are, questioned. But our policies,
Uke those of the State, are made and carried out by the elected representatives who give their time, their effort, their sweat and—yes—
sometimes their tears, so that you and I, as public employees, may be
better off.
The Work Done i'or Free
Our discissions of a dues raise involve comparatively little
money to accomplish a great deal. The Board of Directors put a top
limit of $10 on the figure it would recommend to the delegates. But
I can tell you this: Not even $50 could pay for the work and time
and effort put in by your unpaid representatives — officers, directors,
committee workers, chapter and conference officeis. This work done
"for free" is the extra bonus which every Association member gets
with his membership. Those who have written me letters requesting
financial statements should know these facts, should learn to appreciate the efforts in their behalf, and the care with which Association
funds, small compared with the job these funds do, are expended.

I must report that a good percentage of our laundry workers and

Many of them are now awakening to the deception and misleadershlp
which led them into accepting such a shameful scheme. I t all shows
that we've got a lot of work to do to dig up facts, to prove to our

I T H A C A , June 27—Much credit
for the successful picnic at Stewart Park the evening of June 16,
regular meeting night of Biggs
Memorial Hospital chapter, CSEA,
goes to the arrangements committee, chaired by R. Carvard.
About 50 people turned out on
that evening of perfect mild spring
weather and thoroughly enjoyed
the varied food and drink f u r nished by the chapter.
The Softball game met a dramatic end. Just as the players
were getting the kinks out, the
bat broke.
" W e did enjoy ourselves," President Edgar Graham said. "Those
who couldn't join us, should try
to make It next time."
Election Results
Results of the chapter election
were announced at the picnic.
Officers are Edgar Graham, president; William Reed, vice president: Jeannette Haire, secretary;
Margaret
Peldkamp,
treasurer;
Richard Carvard. delegate; Thomas Keane, alternate.
The intense interest in the proposed CSEA dues increase, and in
the elimination of the split shift

Last w e e k , the Preller Commission j u m p e d into the area
of public employee labor relations. This Commission,
•working f o r some years now on revision of the State civil
•ervice l a w , feels that labor relations procedures ought
l o be written into the l a w . There is " i n s i d e " information
that the staff of the Preller Commission is recommending
proposals going much f a r t h e r than those of the Governor.
In N e w Y o r k City, a start had been made in labor
relations, under the aegis of the n e w l y - f o r m e d L a b o r D e partment, but the attempt seems to have d a w d l e d along,
with nothing exceptional produced so f a r .
Y e t all students of government admit that labor relations is basic to the kind of government people get. E m ployees w h o feel secure, w h o are able to bring thir prob1ms to just conclusions, w h o can present their claims bef o r e competent and f a i r - m i n d e d tribunals, are better emp l o y e e s ; and will in the end bring better government to
the people.
Certain essentials are required in any plan of labor
relations or grievance p r o c e d u r e :
1. T h e right of an employee to join a l a w f u l organi»ation f o r the advance of his w a g e s and w o r k i n g conditions.
2. The right of the employee to present his grievances
for just solution, through representatives of his own choosing, without f e a r of reprisal or recrimination.
3. The right of the employee organization to sit d o w n
• s an equal with representatives of government, and negotiate on salary and conditions of w o r k .
4. The right to s w i f t adjustment ®f grievances,

FAIR POLICY ASKED
ON SICK LEAVE
Editor, The LEADER:
We State Institution employees
often discuss cases of sick leave
abuse. Discussion in our hospital
— and it is a typical institution,
I believe — leads to the conclusion that action to place the benefit on a realistic basis must be
taken soon.
Employers themselves are not
all in the clear. Can we employees
rear children or even train dogs
by rewarding the sly violation of
a rule, yet punishing conscientious
observance of that rule, as some
employers do with their employees?
The present state of such leave
is only what could be expected.
Evidently since 1933-34, when 150day accumulative sick leave was
granted to departmental employees, New York State has never
attempted to insure fairness to
each and all. Significantly, no truant or enforcement machinery has
been established.
Consider this actual case. A
woman employee with a title of
domestic recently retired. She had
to her credit 660 hours or 82
days. Did she receive any recognition for her honesty in use of sick
time? None. Many who know her
can tell how she reported to work
quite often and did her job, although she should have been home,
for she was ill. Such cases are not
rare. Retirement played a nowyou - see - it - now-you-don t trick
with her sick time. The store of
82% days vanished.
'Fool Not To Take I f
Now, let's look at what we might
call a short-term employee. Here
Is a married woman earning a second income in the family, a common occurrence. She Intends to
work a year or so as a public employee to pay bills or earn enough
to buy a new car, or pay off the
mortgage. She soon knows all about
sick time. She finds how some employees occasionally take days off,
ascribing their absence to illness,
to catch up with the work at home,
or to shop or visit. She says, "Now
I-d be a fool if I didn t do the
same. I'll keep a few days' sick
leave in reserve, just in case I do
fall sick. I'll lose them all, anyhow, when I quit." Some loneterm employees reason along somewhat the same lines.
ployees, would it be wrong to reward the healthy ones?
Sooner or later after retirement, the employee who retires
with 150 days' sick leave to his
credit will require an Increasing
amount of medical attention.
Should he not therefore look forward to retirement with the feeling of security derived from the
knowledge that each day of unused sick leave will be converted
into cash or put into his retirement account?
Let our State say, "Here, you
are given sick leave, a splendid
fringe benefit. Treat it wisely as
you do your salary check. Use it
only for illness, and store it carefully for the day you will need it
as a pensioner."
If tlie State adopts this attitude, morale will soar, and there
will be
an improvement
in
employees'
attendance
record
througliout the State.

UNIFORM AGE
FOR RETIREMENT
Editor, The LEADER:
Some units of the State government seem to be able to require
retirement at any age that they
stipulate.
Laws pertaining to the State
Employees
Retirement
System
make retirement mandatory at
age 70, while policies of the Board
of Trustees of the State University
make retirement mandatory at age
65 for members of the academic
staff.
If a bill, introduced by Senator
Desmond at the last session of the
Legislature, had been enacted,
agencies would have been pi evented from establishing their own retirement ages.

LAUNDRY WORKERS
IN PROTEST
Editor, The LEADER:
An Open I,ctfcr (o the Classification and Compensation Board.
Gentlemen:
The question seems to be debatable as to whetlier the appeal
submitted to your Board by the
laundry workers was read or studled. If so, then you certainly
missed the points we were trying
to put over — (1) that the Board
seems to have no conception o£
the duties of a lanudry worker,
(2) that there is no comparison
in the duties of an institutional
laundered with those of private
industry, and (3) that Institutional launderers must act in the
capacity of launderers and attendants (this point in particular
must be carefully noted) not forgetting the therapeutic value we
lend to the individual patient employed In laundry work.
If our appeal was denied solely
on the salary analysis of rates
paid in private industry then we
have been denied an increase in
salary which we Justly deserve.
I suggest that the Board make
a study by personal contact with
the workers themselves, where the
workers are employed. We note
that most of the higher salary
brackets received substantial increases and also that some ol
those increases were the equivalent to the starting yearly salaries
of some state employees in the
lower brackets. Granted that most
of the high salaries positions are
important Jobs with great responsibilities and are entitled to due
compensation, but please let's
spread it around a little.
Laundry work is important. It
Is a job that calls for a certain
amount of .skill; it calls for accuracy and good judgment. Mistakes cannot be corrected after
they happen.
Our Job calls for at least an
upgrading to Grade 5.

initiative in the administrative
improvement program. We should
like, however, to be kept informed
and to have an opportunity to
advise and help. The services of
the Administrative Management
Unit of this Division will be especially
available to
agencies
which lack special management
improvement staffs. For functions
which cut across departmental
lines and for interdepartmental
problems, special
responsibility
will lodge in the Budget Division

Violations to Be Reported
" I suggest that the members of
the County Executive Commiitee
be requested . . . to let me know
immediately as to any violations
that they believe may occur in
their county. Since Chapter 692
of the laws of 1955 became effective June 1, it will have been in
effect for the first time on Saturday, June 4. In case of any
suspected violations of the law,
please be sure to give me facts
as to date, department, and any
other pertinent data. I am quite
sure that if there are any violations. we will soon be able to
straighten them out since there
is no question but that the law is
mandatory as to county offices."
Committee on Fringe Benefit
Vernon A. Tapper, acting as
chairman of the County Executive Committee, CSEA, states that
the Saturday closing bill has opened another chain of tholght
among the counties—fringe benefits and salaries. He appointed a
committee named the "Poliiy
Committee on Salary and Fringe
Benefits." The group consists of
Don Edick, Sam Borelly, Robert
Clift. The committee intends to
produce a report of salaries paid
in various towns, counties, and
districts ,and also the fringe benefits.

"The small staff of the Administrative Management Unit can
be of greatest usefulness if other
departments make available to us
the services of especially qualified
individuals for particular projects.
The Governor has heartily approved such utilization of manpower. It will be most appreciated
if you offer such services, and on
occasion we may request them of
you.
"The administrative improvement program can move immediately only within the confines
of existing law. However, where
changes in laws would permit further desirable economies and improved services, they should be
fully explored and when found
justified, proposed to us in connection with your annual budgetary estimates.
"Please keep careful records of
your achievements in administrative improvements and consult
with us freely. Suggestions from
you for projects you think we
should consider insisting will be
welcomed."
