On Racetrack
Employment
ALBANY, May 6—A dent has
been made in harsh restrictions
set up in 1954 against public employes working parttime at rac«
tracks.
Governor Harriman has signed
a bill to permit public employes
to take extra jobs at pari-mutuel
track.s, with these ifs:
the employee does not earn
more than $6,000 a year in his
regular, state, county, city or town
job.
If the extra job has the approval of his department or local
government unit.
If he is not in the law enforcement field.
The 1954 law. which this bill
amends, set a $5,000 salary limit
for parttime track work.
Approval of the measure, sponsored by Senator Daniel G. Albert, Nassau County Republican,
came as another victory for tht
Civil Service Employees Association, which has campaigned to
ease restriction against legimata
outside employment for public
workers.
Governor Harriman, at the same
time vetoed a similar bill to rals»
the salary barrier to $7,500. It
was introduced by Assemblyman
John Ostrander, Saratoga County
Republican, and also had the support of the CSEA.

The Commission said that the

permits a technician to be classifitd and assigned to a job as a

of years of experience and some
formal education.

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE
Social Security for state employees will not present too diffcult
a task for the Association. T h e officers and staff will probably be
called upon frequently to give aid in interpretations of the law and
to answer questions regarding the benefits in joining Social Security
with the Retirement System. But the mechanics of bringing t h e
two system together will be relatively easy on the state level. T h e y
will be limited to three simple steps:
1. An informal poll by the Departmen of Audit and Control of
all state employees 'except policemen and f i r e m e n ) * who belong to
the State Retirement Systems.
2. A formal vote by secret ballot called f o r by the Governor.

that immediate steps will be taken
by the State Social

500,000 public employees in the
State will have an opportunity to
participate in the new Social Security program.

Local Unit Decisions Needed
T h e Comptroller indicated that
this poll will be conducted shortly
after each local unit of government adopts a formal resolution
indicating the extent of retroactive coverage to be provided.
Each employer has the option to
provide either six quarters or four
quarters or current coverage. T h e
Social Security Agency will provide each of the more than 5,000
participating municipalities with
the information necessary to adopt
this resolution and the other
steps that they will be required
to take. This will include tha
crl'.eria to estimate the cost of
the alternative forms of coverage
and how to select the proper coverage best suited to the needs of
their employees and the demands
of their budget. This material will
be sent to the political subdivisioni
early next week.
John

H I L E tlie State is providing six quarters of retroactive Social Security coverage f o r its employees,
If employees w h o are members of State retirement system approve the tie-in with the Federal plan, N e w Y o r k
City is showing no sign of doing likewise. The employee
organizations should get suddenly busy trying to induce
N e w York City to f o l l o w the State's example. Retroactive
coverage is important to those at or near minimum Social Security retirement age 65.

The fact that the 1957-58 N e w Y o r k City budget contains an appropriation of only $4,250,000 f o r Social Security coverage f o r employees who do not have it by

refrain f r o m granting retroactive coverage.

benefit would cost much more. There is still time, though
little, to raise the amount in the budget f o r the next fiscal
yeai-. Even if that isn't done, the cost of retroactive coveiage could be provided by supplemental appropriation.

some college training compete f o r
the job that offers such excellent
prootlon opportunities, nor t h a t
sanitation is a science that takes
nearly as much brains as automation.
Commissioner Screvane had t w o
years of college, and after he b e came a sanitationman passed the
fireman test. H e turned down four
offers of appointment as fireman
because he liked sanitation work
so much. I t takes a lot of e n thusiasm f o r something else f o r
anybody to turn down tlie t e m p t ing fireman job.
" H o w do you like being C o m missioner?"
M r . Screvane
was
asked.
" I like it immensely," he r e plied. " I t keeps me fully occupied
in the line of work I enjoy best,
and it challenges one's ingenuity."
Reveals Biggest
Problem
" W h a t is your biggest problem?
"Public relations. T h e success
with which the department f u n c tions, since Its operations have
been scientifically stabilized, d e pends on the cooperation we get
f r o m the public."
" D o you get i t ? "
" Y e s . W e get a great deal of it.
But we're always after more. W h a t
we do affects the public so d i rectly that when the public shows
interest in our work we cherish
the f a c t . "
H e praised the Citizens C o m mittee to K e e p New York Clean.
Peter McHugh, president of the
New York Telephone Company,
heads the group,- and John C o l e man, former president of the N e w
Y o r k Stock Fxchange, is v i c e president. Young Sz Rubicani h a n dle the advertising as a public
service, to put it mildly.
" T h e committee does a wonderful job, and the public owes it a
deep^ debt of
gratitude,"
the
Commissioner said cheerily.
T h a t Ferbcr
Crack
Again
H e was reminded of the remark
tliat Kdna Ferbe.- made some years
ago on returning from Europe that
the streets of New Y o r k City were
tfie dirtiest she had ever seen in
all her travels. W h a t did he think
of such a statement?
" W h e n it comes to writing a
novel. Miss Ferber is in her element; concerning the condition of
the streets of
New Y o r k she
proved herself quite ignorant. H e r
novel, ' G i a n f was about to be
published at the time, and she
said something that would gain
newspaper notice. Besides, she was
t a k i n g about the condition of the
streets she hadn't seen, for she
was still aboard ship."
Did the Commissioner make a
point of reading the novel, or
seeing the movie? Certainly not.
He does considerable reading,
enjoys the great masters of E n g lish prose, dips into poetry now
and again, but when there's three
hours for leisure you might find
him applauding -some spheroidal
pirouette at the ballet. Yep, the
Commissioner of Sanitation, while
warm to opera, is simply wild
about ballet.

for the monthly benefits for an

f o r that quarter, not pay for the
full three months on $150. This
explains what you call the "missing months."
