Protest Against Pay PelRaJfy
When Work Week Was Reduced
Tax Dept. Employees Show RealTeam CSEA Hails
Spirit in Helping Downed Co- Worker Retirement
A L B A N Y , July 15—There's real "team spirt" among state employees. For proof, Just ask Joseph RototJdaro, a clerk in the State
Department of Taxation and Finance.
Tough luck is Mr. Rotondaro's middle name. On May 24th, he
broke his jaw in two places while playing shortstop on the Tax Department team in an official state softball league game.
When the accident happened, he had only been working for the
.*tat8 for a few weeks and had no vacation or sick leave on which to
draw. The result was he lost nearly five week's salary.
Then, although he was playing ball in the official state department league, the league has no accident protection policy. And he
reports:
" I was told I wasn't eligible for workmen's compensation benefits
since I wasn't actually working at the time."
On top of everything, he has received hospital and doctor's bills
so far totaling about $1,000 and he expects the final sum to be "much
higher."
He has a small family-type health insurance policy, but he reports
this will cover "only about $200 of my expenses."
T h e state's new health and hospitalization program for state
workers can't help. I t won't go into effect until this fall.
But here Is where the "team spirit" comes in. His fellow state
workers have started a Rotondaro Fund and the collections are going
to be turned over to Joe to help him meet his heavy medical expenses.
That's the way the state employees "play ball" in the state softball league.
State Parking Committee
May Be Named to Solve
Albany Auto Situation
• - B A N Y . July 15 — State o f ficials are studying suggestions
offered by state employees on ways
to alleviate tight parking conditions around state buildings in
this Capitol City.
Heading the list of proposals,
now under consideration by Budget and Public Works officials. Is
creation of a state parking commlttea to be appointed by Governor Harrlman.
A memorandum on the situation will be submitted to the Governor. I t may also include proposals to build multi-tier parking
facilities near the Capitol and the
use of chartered buses to ferry
workers from parking lots on the
outskirts of the city to their place
of work.
T h e suggestion the Governor appoint • committee to study the
parking situation was made at «
recent meeting between a delegation of state employees and Budget and Public Works officials.
Aides At Meeting
At the meeting were Carl W .
Larson, slate
architect;
John
Tiesler, chief of engineering unit
in Budget Division and Howard
Miller, deputy budget director.
Representing state workers were
Joseph McGiimij, Public Works;
Russell Taylor, of the Civil Service Employees Association; Eugene Halsey Jr.. State Association
of Highway Engineers; Robert
Sickles and Leon Silver, both of
Public Works Department.
If a state parking committee is
established, it was urged that the
"initial emphasis" be on the acute
parking situation in Albany, but
that the committee eventually
could be expanded to cooperate
with other cities on a statewide
basis.
DONNELLY HOSPITALIZED
A. Joseph Donnelly, Field Representative for The Civil Service
Employees Association, is in the
Veterans Hospital In Albany. He
entered the hospital on June 26
and has been undergoing a series
of diagnostic tests for a digestive
ailment.

justments were paid to State employees whose hours were reduced
from 44 to 40 hours, or from 48
to 44. Payment of these adjustments has been continued during
the present 1957-1958 fiscal year
where the affected employees continued to work either 40 or 44
hours.
CSEA Upheld
An inquiry from the State Civil
Service Commission indicated that
on the reduction of hours this
year from 44 to 42 the Commission and the Department of Audit
and Control have construed the
la—s as requiring discontinuance
of the adjustment which had
been paid up to the time they
took effect, and used a computation for a new adjustment that
would not be as favorable to the
employees.
CSE.\ Sought Approval
The Employees' Associaton, said
Mr. Powers, has been interested
in this subject for some time.
After the Social Security Bill had
passed at the last regular session

suggestion that there be a suspension of the mandatory retirement
provision to enable those aph

"So much confusion attended

employees contended they lost
money by the interpretation of
the law which the administrativa
authorities made when it went

they felt, did not materialize into
a tangible benefit. The opinion of

May Stay, Says
Lefkowitz
A L B A N Y . July 15—The provifiions of a law passed by the special session of the Legislature,
suspending compulsory retirement
Bt age 65 or more, so employees
r - • qualify for Social Security,
wore clarified in an opinion by
Attorney General Louis J. L e f k o witz.
Mr.
Lefkowitz
rendered
the
opinion in a letter to Deputy
Comptroller William M . Girden,
who administers the State Employees' Retirement System.
T h e Three Ma!n Points
T h e main points of the opinion:
1. Pensioners may return
to
State or local government service
long enough to qualify for Social
Security coverage.
2. Present employees may even
continue in service beyond that
time, by obtaining an extension
of service f r o m the State P e n sion Commission. For New Y o r k
City employees it would be the
Board of Estimate.
3. Pensioners who remain such
may fill temporary, seasonal or
occasional Jobs, even if over age
70, if pay does not exceed $1,800
a year, no time limit prescribed.
T h e compulsory retirement age
varies for different systems. I n
the State Employees Retirement
System It is 70. T h e minimum
compulsory retirement age in some
oth'^r systems Is 65. T h e suspension applies to all systems.
LOUIS J. LEFKOWITZ
eligibility for Social Security benefits is attained, with June 30,
1958 the outside date for such
suspensions.
T e x t of Opinion
Mr. Lefkowitz wrote Mr. G i r den:
Your first question is v/hether
a retired member of the New Y o r k
State Employees' Retirement System receiving a retirement allowance therefrom for other than
physical disability may return to
active public service and be eligible
for membership in the System
even though he has attained 70
years of age or more. I understand that your question is presented because of previous opinions of the Attorney
General
which held that such retired
members of the System may not
return to active public service
and again become members thereof.
Lefkowltz's Digest
A digest issued by the Attorney
General's o f f i c e states that pensioners of the State Sytem who
•re over age 70 may return to
active public service and again become members of the System. T h e
ruling would benefit pensioners
who may obtain sufficient credit
to become eligible for Social Security benefits. Also, suspension
of mandatoi-y retirement or termination of service is only until
Anti-Discrimination
Agreement Signed By
UAW, Urban League
A formal agreement in a f u r ther move to eliminate racial discrimination in employment, the
first of It kind in writing, was announced by Walter P. Reuther,
pre.sident. United A u t o m o b i l e
Workers, and Theodore W . Kheel,
president, National Urban League.
T h e agreement provides regular
machinery to deal with cases of
discrimination in all industries in
which the U A W has collective
bargaining agreements, by calling
for cooperative action by the U r ban League and the U A W Fair
Practices Department.
Urban League field secretaries
who encounter problems of alleged
discriminatory
practices
within the area of union responsibility, whether by U A W locals
or plant management, will work
with the U A W fair practices representatives through regional and
national offices, in arriving at
satisfactory
solutions
to
such
problems.
" T h e policy of our union, since
Its beginnings, has been to eliminate all forms of discrimination in
the plans with which we have collective
bargaining
agreement,"
said Mr. Reuther. " M u c h progress
has been made. W a g e differentials
on the basis of race, creed or color
have been entirely eliminated."
"These opinions. In e f f e c t hold
that because of the agp-70 m a n datoi-y retirement provision it was
not possible to re-employ a person
who had attained age 70 and
whose retirement would be m a n datory on the first day of the
following month.
"However, It has been noted
above that new section 113-a suspended this mandatory retirement
provision in order that persons
who are not eligible for federal
old-age and survivors Insui'ance
benefits may be permitted to serve
and attain such eligibility. T h i s
suspension, in the case of m e m bers of the New Y o r k State Employees' Retirement System, may
be for as long as a period of
slightly more than a year, f r o m
the date of enactment of such
section to June 30, 1958. This, of
course, is subject to further discu.sslon herein concerning cases
where such eligibility Is attained
before June 30, 1958.
N Y C Tcachers' Case
" I n the case of the New Y o r k
City Teachers' Retirement System,
subdivision 2 of section B20-41.0
of the Administrative Code of the
City of New York, as amended by
chapter 264 of the Laws of 1949,
provides a single date upon which
mandatory
retirements
are
to
take e f f e c t each year. This date
is August 31, which coincides with
the end of the school year. T h e obvious purpose here is to prevent
the interruption of a teacher's
service during a school year by
a forced retirement. Thus, the
policy of the law is to have all
such retirements become effective
on one .single day each year. F i o m
the legislative history of section
113-a, including the Governor's
call which provided for the consideration of the subject matter
at the Extraordinai-y Session, i t is
quite apparent that such section
was designed to eliminate m a n datory retirements that otherwise
would be required to become e f fective on August 31, 1957, and to
move that date forward to August
31, .1958. This construction must
result f r o m a reading of section
B20-41.0 of the
Administrative
Code with section 113-a of the
Retirement and Social Security
Law.
" I n the case of the New Y o r k
State Employees' Retirement System, however, mandatory retirements normally become e f f e c t i v e
on the first day of the calendar
month next succeeding the attainment of age 70. Thus, the policy
in this law is to have mandatory
retirements become effective on
the first day of each month during a year. Reading this requirement together with section 113-a
and in light of the expressed intention in such latter section, it

Questions Answered
Exclusive Bargaining Raises
Issues
I N S T I T U T I N G exclusive collective bargaining for New Y o r k City
employee.? would be no easy undertaking, at best, both because of
the complex "overnmental structure and the dl.sposition of employee
groups to seek what would benefit them, rather tiian take a stand
strictly on the merits.
T h e Department of Labor, which recommends that exclusive collective bargaining be made the new policy, says: " F o r its part, the
City appears to be ready to make the move." T h e Department admits
the difficulties and the highly experimental nature of the propo.sed
undertaking.
If the Labor Department can devise and execute a plan f o r
exclusive collective bargaining that would attain all tlie goals that it
conscientiously envisions, it would be accomplishing a great deal. As
yet it has not propo.sed any detailed plan, but rather recommended
broad policy. I t would postpone decision on crucial aspects until
enough experience ha.s been gained. Hov/ever, any plan so largely
lacking in detail necessarily evades the very problems that it seeks
to solve. A detailed plan would no doubt provoke much adverse
criticism that a broad statement, of policy escapes. T h e plan as
propo?!ed in " R e p o r t on a Pro,?ram of Labor Relations for New Y o r k
Cititj Employees" is wide open at both ends and right dov;n the middle.
Start Urged l\'ow
T h e Labor Department did carefully research tlie field without attempting to exhaust it. Its impartial, if wordy, factual report
cites the prevalence of exclusive collective bargaining in industry, and
the growth of the practice in government. T r a d e unionism hails exclusive collective bargaining in industry; even in government where
practicable, if otherwise dangerous loopholes are pUigced up.
The report admits that it is too early to seek State legislation,
that more experience is needed, but argues for getting started on a
broad scale now. Labor relations generally were canvassed and reports
made in monographs previou.?ly Issued.
The Labor Department Itself has had only two years' experience
with the operation of the Mayor's Interim labor relations program.
Even that short experience has shown some flaws, it says, principally
that a numerically dominant union is deprived of some of its rightful
prerogatives by other organizations, even undermined. Already two
employee organizations, one of them a powerful union, are opposed
to the exclusive bargaining recommendations as made in the report.
Rut There Is No Peace
T h e stated ultimate object is to have a labor relations program
for employees of local governments, and by inference State government, enacted by the State Legislature, embodying the principle of
exclusiveness.
Besides lacking in necessary details, the plan takes much for
granted. T h e report a.ssumes, f r o m statements by union leaders, that
there would be no difficulty about defining what constitutes a bargaining unit. A n opinion is only a conclusion, and not evidence. I t
would be just as fair to assume that squabbles over boundaries of a
bargaining unit would be numerous. T h e power to decide what constitutes a bargaining unit is the power to throw the exclusive bargaining representation to one union or another, and is raw meat f o r

Drastic Reductions on
I t would be intersting to discover how the Labor Department
would deal with the problem in the Department of Hospitals. M a n y
employees in that department are in jobs that carry cltywide titles.
One union showed a numerical departmental supremacy, 2 - t o - l , in a
tally of checkoff cards, as against its sole real competitor. T h e report
states there are 24 unions in the department. There are principally
the two. A union is something other than an employee organization;
it is a part of the national labor moveemnt. In some Iwspitals one or
the other union swamped the other, so f a r as membership comparison
went. Would the overall majority union be granted exclusive departmental collective bargaining rights? Would the union that had the
majority in one hospital get exclusive bargaining rights for all the
employees of that hospital, so that both unions would be able to
speak for institutional aides, dietary aides, housekeeping aides, m a i n tenancemen, nurses, clerks, motor vehicle operators? T h e report
indicates that bargaining units would not be established by titles, but
by department or units of a department, to avoid multiplicity of
representation, but separate recognition on a hospital-by-hospital
basis would continue plural representation.

One of the frank objectives of the Department of Labor is to
have City officials deal with one union instead of with many unions,
so f a r as practical, a consummation the officials must devoutly wish.
Also, though inferentially, the plan proposes that the number of
officials with whom a union need deal shall be reduced, without
denying the separate authority of the Mayor, the Board of Estimate,
the Council, the Budget Director, the Personnel Director, and the
Civil Service Commissions, both City and State. How the Labor
Commissioner would settle differences on economic aspects, on civil
service law, and on legislation generally, is not clear, except that in
these areas the report does not pretend that the Latfor Commissioner's
authority is anything more than recommendatory. I t is of course true
that his good offices could be used in the future, as they have been
in the past, to help smoothe over some difficulties. T h e only e f f e c t
the proposed new plan would have on these officials whose own sphere
of jurisdiction is sharply defined would be excuse them, too, f r o m
having to deal with so many different employee organizations, but
they might not welcome that, for these is an air of attempted usurbation of their own powers about it.
Patrick Henry once observed that he knew no way of judging
the future except f r o m experience, but he might have added that
even experience is not infallible because events are like fingerprints;
no two Identical. But experience is usually a better guide than theory.
As the New Y o r k City government itself has no experience with
exclusive collective bargaining within its own confined framewoak,

N o distillation of practice can be expeeted from scattered and
variegated grains of philosophical concept. Experiment could be
conducted on some pilot program before anything so pretentious as
cltywide exclusive bargaining is attempted. T h a t is what was done
with the program established by the interim order. T h e Department
of Sanitation was the proving ground. Instead, the plan as proposed
not only suggests that exclusive bargaining be attempted cltywide in
those branches of government directlly under the Mayor, but that
the associated agencies follow suit, so that finally a uniform policy
would prevail for all municipal employees. Looking into the future,
even a standard statewide policy is envisioned. New Y o r k City setting
the example.
T h e report cites the 35,000 employees of the Department of H o s pitals among the 90,000 in the Mayor's departments. I t recommends
that exclusive bargaining, in general, be made departmentwide, or
confined to units of departments, as seems best in the opinion of the
Labor Commissioner.

Correction Employees Confer With McHugh
(Continued on PaKe

to

income to maintain a decent
standard of living for their f a m i lies.
On June 25, the Conference delegates met with Commissioner M c Hugh and his staff to review a
number
of
employee
problems
which was prepared by the Conference and submitted to the Commissioner in advance.
T h e question of installation of
the 42-hour work week generally
was discussed, and the Department
is hopeful that the vacancies
which exist and the new positions
created can be filled at an early
date.
T h e question of personal leave
as made available by the new
State Attendance Rules which
took e f f e c t on January 3rd was
discussed. Apparently, in certain
correctional institutions
,practically all requests for personal
leave are being denied, some on
the basis that Insufficient help to
cover work schedules requires denial of personal leave. I n some Institutions, unnecessary demands
f o r the reasons for personal leave
are made .Commissioner McHugh
has assured that these matters
will be checked into at the earliest
date with a view to assuring fair
treatment
under
the
personal
leave arrangement.
Protest
Lodged
T h e delegates protested the provision of the new
Attendance
Rules which removes the guarantee that time off in lieu of holidays which f a l l on their days off
will be given. T h e new rule removes such guarantee relative to
holidays which fall on Saturdays.
T h e Correction Officers work on
Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, and
around the clock with no extra
time for overtime, or no shift premium pay for nifeht or holiday
work, and they feel that they
should not lose any holidays which
f a l l on their days o f f .
T h e Correction Conference and
CSEA will Jointly appeal to the
Civil Service Commission for amendment of the State Attendance
Rules to reinstate the guarantee of
time off for holidays which f a l l on
employees' days o f f duty. T h e
Correction Conference has requested the restoration of the fourweek vacation period for new employees in line with an appeal
made by C S E A to the State Civil
Service Commisson several weeks
ago.

Life Plan
When the Civil Service Employees Association Group L i f e
Insurance Plan originally began, effective in June, 1939, it
was as a previous article stated,
"considered a great buy that
State employees could not arrange
through
any
other
means." T h e monthly contribution at that time was 60c for
each thousand of Life Insurance for members under 39
years of age. For older ages
higher contributions were required; those 45 but less than
50 ye^irs of age, for example,
aylng
$1.00 per month
thousand.
per
Through favorable experience
—claims paid under the policy
being less than the amount anticipated over the years—there
has been a resulting reduction
in the contribution required of
members, first in 1950 and then
again in 1956. Today, those age
29 and under contribute only
30c per month per thousand of
Life Insurance with all members up to age 50 contributing
in reduced amounts.
