Employees
Buying
Plan was issued by the Plan management last week as members of
the Association continued to send
sales slips f r o m current memberstores for rebates. Most rebates
amounted to 7'/a percent of the
amount of the purchase. However
several stores asked to be classified as discount houses so as to
limit the rebate to SS/i per cent.
All members of the Civil Service
Employees Association are automatically eligible for the benefits
of the plan. Almost a thousand
stores throughout New Y o r k State
have already indicated their a f filiation with the Plan. These are
listed periodically in a special
section of the Civil Service Leader
with additions and changes noted
f r o m time to time. Additions to
this list are made by recommendation of prospective stores by consumer members. T h e plan hopes
to afBliate merchant
members
f r o m all parts of the State covering most essential products and
services.
Here is how the plan works for
civil service employees:
1. Eligible consumer members
(including all members of C S E A )
make purchases from affiliated
stores on the same basis as other
consumers. Only if a purchase exceeds $200 are they asked to ident i f y themselves after making the
purchase.

Says John F. Powers, President
Civil Service Employees Association
"Tlie Civil Service Employees Association takes great pride in the important role it played in
developing the Statewide Health Plan. Over,200,000 New York State employees including their
dependents, have expanded hospitalization benefits provided by Blue Cross and over 160,000 have
cxp.inded doctor benefits provided by Blue Shield. And, in addition to Blue Cross and Blue Shield,
the Major-Medical portion of the Statewide Plan, after a $50. deductible, pays 80% of many other
necessary medical expenses such as prescribed drugs and home and oflice doctor carc."
And the Statewide Plan is the only plan available to all New York State Employees.
Blue Cross, Blue Shield and Major-Medical means the kind of protection for you and
your family that is realistic . . . the kind of protection against a combination of
medical expenses that could add up to financial tragedy.
This choice by the State of Nevi^ York for its employees gives added testimony to the
fact that the best basic protection you can get is Blue Cross and Blue Shield. Blue
Shield alone is the choice of almost seven million New York State residents as the best
way to pay doctor bills.
Added to extensive hospital and doctor bill protection is the knowledge that those
"extra" medical expenses at home may be covered by Major-Medical.* This part
of the program provides up to $7500 in medical expenses in a calendar year' and
$15,000 total for each individual.

(Hioice
Our employees are fortunate in having such fine members of
th« Commission as tliey presently ha\e. H. Elliot Kaplan, president
of tlie Commission, is an expert in the fields of retirement and
classiflcation. Alexander Falk is considered by many to be the best
friend our Civil Service has ever had. Mary Goode Krone has a
long record of public experience and a real feeling for the public
employee. It is said that the trio comprise tlie best and most
pro-civil servant commission our State has known.
Mr. Kaplan, the President and newest Member of the Commission, for the second time has given up his flourishing private
practice for the public service.
He has stated several times that, "it is unfortunate that people
don't get to see the individual in public service as they really are
dedicated, loyal and unselfish. It was the public employee that
built the Grand Coulee Dam and invented the Sprinsfield rifle."
Kaplan slated further. ''We are not far frn-- t'le day when
instead of apologizing for being in State service that one will be
proud to be in the service." The Civil Service i. ...,iia;SSioncr has
given us the lead. Each State employee should do his part to speed
the day when he will be proud of his work by making the effort
necessary to help the public understand.

they should also change the name
under which they are registered
with the Social Security Administration. It is important that you
do this to insure that all of your

Race Against Prices
In less than three decades the picture has changed
eadly f o r civil servants. The years have been a constant
struggle to keep salaries up with the higher rents, higher
f o o d bills, higher prices on everything that went into
everyday living.
True, by dint of much pressuring by organized employee groups, w a g e scales have been raised, and an attempt was made to keep up with the position of labor
throughout the nation. But in the process there has come
a gradual shift of comparative compensation.
Many of the chief attractions of public service have
become generally accepted fringe benefits of all employees. Unemployment insurance—denied to public employees—has o f f s e t the often mythical security of tenure.
Paid holidays and vacations are now more numerous in
many industrial lines than those received by public employees. Some industrial groups, finding insufficient legal
holidays, even provide a day o f f on birthdays. Retirement
benefits are now universal, with pension and w e l f a r e
funds often greater than provisions of public employee
retirement funds.
Moreover, the depression years and the years of
upoils-system, created a myth about public employees
which has not been entirely erased.
A J it<d Area
Unfortunately the decades of inflation have also
been accompanied by rising public services and rising
taxes. Unthinkingly the taxpayer looks at his neighboring government employee and says to himself, " H e ' s
getting my money." And in his f i g h t f o r lower taxes, he
envisages the individual employee as the source of his
hgher payments to the government.
T h e increasing importance of government in everyday living makes public service a vital ai-ea of natonal
progress. The executon of the functions of government is
the work of the public employee.
It deserves recognition f o r its importance, f o r its
lervice, f o r the talents it requires, and for the dedication
i t entails.
Somehow, the puiblic must be made to appreciate
services more, and to give to public employees the
•tatus they once enjoyed. Perhaps this recognition will
jresult in better pay f o r public employees.
Or perhaps it will be necessary to get the better pay
f o r people, somehow, appreciate more what they
pay more f o r .

Power
Association, which comprises em-
uninterrupted spiral of increasing prices, more than
tripling the cost of living and bringing with it a better
standard of living f o r most of the populaton. But in this
period there has been a radical readjustment of income
and status. For, justifiably or not, the social status of most
of our citizens is directly related to their comparative incomes.
Most oldtimei-s will remember poignantly the years
•when Civil Service was a career of great pi'estige. It off e r e d position, security and income commensurate with
the competitive status it represented. Of all the employed,
only the public employee was selected by competitive examination, by the iron test of intelligence tests and knowledge. T h e career of public service was much to be desired
and selected by able school graduates as a pattern of
lifetime earnings.

Don't ask me why. W h e n you

wait after you f i b until you're

AUDIT & CONTROL CATHOLICS COMMUNE
W e would be remiss if
we
failed to recognize the contribution made to the solution of this
problem by Assemblyman John
Satriale who for several years
has made the Albany parking
problem a matter of legislative
concern. Although a member of
the legislative minority and representing a conatitutency which
could not possibly have any direct interest in the solution of
the Caoitol parking problem, he
nevertheless pursued his program
because he believed in it. I t is
obvious that without the support
of the leaders of the M a j o r i t y
party in the Legislature and of
t h « Governor, that this legislation could not have been effected,
but Mr. Satrlale's ground work,
we feel sure, enhanced the slgulflcance of this matter as a subject for favorable action.
The annual Communion and breakfast of Catholic employees In the State Department of
Audit and Control was held in Albany recently. The day began with nine o'clock mass at
Saint Mary's Church which was followed by breakfast at the Sheraton Ten Eyck Hotel in
