Inconsistent, Illegal
Holding the interest of Mrs. Ruth McFee, president of the Monroe County chapter of the
Civil Service Employees Assn.. and Jerry Rogers, right, CSEA field representative, is one
of the most advanced computer machines in the world. Explaining this fantastic device
—which gives Monroe County one of the most modern and efficient government operations
in the nation—is Allen H. Harvey, left, director of RAMAC, name of the machine.

A L B A N Y , June 13 — A test case
to force the State Department of
T a x and Finance to fill Ave formerly exempt posts reclassified to
the competitive class with personnel f r o m eligible lists is beng filed
by the Civil Service Employees
Association.
The case arose as the result of a
recent addition to the Civil Service Law, effective April 1, 1959.
which declared that when exempt
posts became vacant they should
be reexamined and placed in the
competitive class if deemed proper.
Papers on the case show that
the Civil Service Commission adopted a resolution on five posts
in the T a x Department declaring
them to be in the competitive
class.
Later,
however.
Commission
president H. Eliot Kaplan advised
Governor Rockefeller by letter
that the posts would be filled by
appointment in the exempt class,
thereby freezing in the new appointees. It is contended that Mr.
Kaplan's act is inconsistent with
the duly voted Civil Service Commission resolution and that the
present holders of the posts should
be removed and the Jobs filled
from eligible lists.
Basis For
The suit hinges on Subdivision
2 of Section 41 of the Civil Service
Law, which became effective Apr.
1, 1959.
It reads: " N o office or position
shall be deemed to be in the exempt class unless it is specifically
named in such class in the rules.

Fireman First Grade Robert W .
Jackson, along with other members, of Engine Co. 67 was stretching hose Une up the interior stairs
of a burning apartment building
at 514 W. n t h St., Manh., at 3:08
p.m. Friday, May 13.
Little did he know that within
an hour he would be badly burned
and very much a hero.
Fire involved the entire third
floor hall and was leaping out
the upper portion of the door of
apartment 32 and licking along the
ceiling.
At this point, fireman Jackson
was informed by the grandchild
of apartment 32's occupant that
his
grandmother,
Mrs.
Lelly
Strau.ss, was still Inside.
Fireman Jackson went into the
apartment
after
her,
passing
through flames and extreme heat
and smoke conditions. Water had
not been started in the hose he'd
been on nor had ventilation been
effected.
He failed to locate Mrs. Strauss
and was forced back out of the
apartment by the blaze. Then he
heard the grandmother calling for
help, and following her voice he
reentered the burning rooms to
find her.
When Fireman Jackson reached
her side in the apartment's kitchen, she was in a state of hysteria. He found there was no way
out but the way he had come in.
By this time flames were moving
into the kitchen.
Fii-eman Jackson began to assist
Mrs. Strauss to safety through the
smoke and flames. She began to
struggle and he, shielding her
with his own body, led her forcibly
to safety. Then he collapsed.
He was taken to Presbyterian
Hospital for treatment of flrst
and second degree burns of the
liands, face and right leg. Mrs.
Strauss was taken to Mother Cabrini for treatment of her burns.
Fireman Jackson has since been
released from the hospital and
retinned to duty.
This is an account, furnished by
the Fire Department, of the action for which Fireman Jackson
was selected as Fireman of the
Month of May by both the Daily
News and the Journal-American.
T h e awards were presented to him
on Monday, June 6. A Departmental Award is expected to follow.

Of 1960 Legislative Session
H A R R Y W. A L B R I G H T , J R .
I should like to now deal in summary fashion, with some of the
other items of interest in our legislative program. Although some of
these measures are not of earthshaking
proportions
or
consequence. they do represent m e a sures which we have been affirmatively seeking.
T h e number of bills printed this
year exceeded all previous years.
Only one bill introduced this year
had a higher print number, and
that bill failed passage. I mention
this historical fact only because
it shows how close these employees
came to running out of numbers
as well as money.

T h e Legislature failed to pass
the Asociation measure, but did

would permit any public officer or
employee to work at a harness

such track prior to 1954. T h i s is

T h e second bill would amend the

Over Judge That Fired
Him; Gets Job & Back Pay Test Open
A Nassau County District Court
attendant fired from his probationary
position
by
Presiding
Judge Thomas P . Farley last week,
won a complete court victory over
the head of his own employing
court. He not only won back his
Job but will gel seniority and
back pay.
Supreme Court Justice Cortland
A. Johnson ruled that Judge Farley had overstepped his authority
in firing the attendant, Phillip G.
Schneider.
I n answer to Mr. Schneider's
suit. Judge Farley had said the
$4,150-a-year attendant was "slovenly and unkempt," tactless and
tardy and made too many telephone calls on court time.
Denies Charges
Mr. Schneider denied the charges and claimed Judge Farley had
not made them to him. He said
Judge Farley had told him only
that he "didn't fit into the picture." Mr. Schneider said the real
reason for his dismissal was that
he had brouglit a court action,
unsuccessful, for a job as a Supreme Court attendant.
which appears every week on Page
6 of The Leader.
Judge Farley said County Executive Patterson had delegated the
firing power to him, but Justice
Johnson ruled that could not be
done.
Mr. Herzstein said he hadn't
thought much of Mr. Schneider's
chances at first glance, since "probationers have hardly any rights."
When he got a look at the Charter, however, he said he found that
the wrong procedure had been u.sed
and that, unlike most court systems. the charter reserved to the
County Executive the power to
hire and fire, instead of the presiding judge.
Mr. Schneider had been a provisional attendant from Feb. 3,
1958. to June 30 of 1959, when
he was made a probationary civil
servant through competitive examination. Before his six-month
trial period was up. Judge Farley
notified him he was fired as of
Jan. 1.

Dismissal by Reclassification?
SIGNAL M A I N T A I ^ E H
A recommendation ha.n been approved to order a promotion exam
fur iignal iiiaintainer with the New
York City ransit Authority and
defer ordering an open competiUv« tetl, tor Uittt title.
On Basis of
Experience
On the basis of experience, fears of reclassification should be
dispelled. Reclassification is relatively new, and it is natural that it
should engender some concern.
I have checked as to whether anyone has ever been dismissed
as a result of reclassification with key men in the major civil service
commissions within the State and they unanimously inform me that
they never heard of a single case where an employee lost his position
as a result of reclassification. I have also checked on this subject
with Joseph D. Lochner, the Executive Director of The Civil Service
Employees Association, Inc., an organization which has the largest
membership of any employee organization in the State and a considerablr-|aumber of local units. Had there been such a case in the
State or ^ c o u n t y service, I believe that he would have known of it.
He told me he had never heard of a case where there was a loss of
position as a result of reclassification. I add my humble voice. I
never heard of such a case either.
Although the persons with whim I checked and I never heard
of such a case, r can see how there is a legal possibility that there

power of random selection. W h i l e
working on another task, the operator can inquire about the personnel status of Robert Roe. Every
f a c t about Robert Roe's working
life In Monroe County is there
— the usual information — his
name, address, title. His social security number, salary and tax deductions. His insurance policy deductions and his association deductions.
Prophet of Tomorrow
I n addition there is the i n f o r m ation about his leaves — personal,
sick and vacation — how much he
has coming, how much used. Even
his service record rating will be
selected by the electronic fingers.
All the official has to do is to
make an inquiry. Some buttons
are punched — lights flicker, a
hum Is heard, the clicking of keys
and then on a sheet- of paper appear the bare facts of an employee's personnel life.
Ramac is staggering to the imagination. I t is a machine fitted to
meet the problems of the space

a commiltee to resolve this problem it must be emphasized that
equal pay means equal with the N . Y . City Correction Officers at
$0,500 yearly.
2. A general salary increase for all state employees. T h e amounts
suggested by various chapters start at $500 yearly to a flat 20%
raise based on gross compen-sation.
3. Longevity increments after 10-15-20 years at maximum salary.
T i i i s resolution is submitted by every correction chapter in the state.
4. Half pay retirement f o r uniformed personnel after 20 years
service. T h i s particular resolution follows the pattern so long en.ioyed
by N . Y . City police and firemen. T h e new pay effective January 1,
1961 for these men will be $6,700 yearly. January 2, 1961, will see
thousands of police and firemen submitting retirement papers and
becoming eligible for $3,3.50 yearly retirement. This amount is for
20 year service. For each additional year they receive an extra $50
retirement, which means tliat after 30 years service these men will
receive $3,850 yearly retirement. This resolution? I like it. I like it.

10. 35 hour work week f o r all state employees.
11. Accidental disability retirement to be possible up to age 70.

T h e CSEA wants the appointees, who replaced the ousted e m ployees, thrown out by the court
and Civil Service lists used to fill
the jobs since recla.ssifled as competitive.
Those Removed
T h e petition notes that Jolin J.
Purcell was removed July 30, 1959
