THERE IS NO mystery or magic about public relations. Public relations is as simple as signhig your signature. In fact, how you sign your name is public relations. Sign It like a chicken scratch and you have bad public relations. Sign it clearly so t h a t people can read it and you have good public relations. PUBLIC RELATIONS is how your agency's partol car or truck looked as it moved along a street or road. Was it dirty? Did it look ready for a junk yard? Or was it bright a n d shiny and appeared well cared for? growl, grunt a n d act as if you're doing someone a favor by picking up the receiver? Or do you answer with a smile and a readiness which makes the other end of the -wire feel t h a t you're ready to help solve their problem? YOUR DEPARTMENT can have the best public relations officer in the world, but your d e p a r t m e n t can have the world's worst public relations. Why? A public relations officer is not a magician or a superm a n . He can't make sweet smelling flowers out of sour, unsightly weeds. A public relations officer can suggest how good public relations can be generated, but t h e people in your department have to be the P R do-gooders.

One of the President Elect's advisors said t h a t the appointments of Edward Day as Postmaster General, Robert S. McNamara as Defense Secretary, and Eugene M. Zuckert as Air Secretary were strongly Influenced by their abilities as managers. Budget director David Bell has been instructed by Kennedy to present a strong program to make management practices more efficient.

Seven percent of the eligible employees who did not join the program are covered by some ether plan. Ninety percent of married men a n d 60 percent of married women took out family coverage. Four out of five employees elected the high option coverage. Statistics f r o m the Civil Service Commission show t h a t salai-y level was a small influence on whether high or low option coverage was selected. Shown above is Blanche Bernstein, Bronx. N.

For many weeks I read regu- The Recruiting Study W E believe the solution to the City's worsening recruiting problem—the solution Mayor Wagner is seeking through a study by the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C.—is more promotional opportunities and higher maximum pay. This applies not only to scientific, engineering, social work and other specialist titles, but to most other titles as well. In most City job classifications, the difference between starting and maximum salary is about $1,000, spread out over (Six years—only $180 more per year. (The example used is for grade 5 in the Career and Salary Plan and is roughly proportionate to pay in both higher and lower grades.) Also, of course, there is the upgrading procedure whereby only beginning employees profit when their title is raised to a higher pay grade, and others merely have another small rung added to the top of their increment ladder. In a nation with an increasingly stable economy, fewer and fewer people will trade so much of the opportunity for advancing themselves for the security and fringe benefits the City offers—especially when many large corporations now match these and still offer more pay and promotion opportunities. A study by the Brookings Institution may be helpful, but it avoids for awhile the necessity to act. In the long run, the City will get what it pays for, and if the pay continues to be low and promotions in most cases scarce, the quality of the City's personnel will deteriorate.

Tuesilay, January 10, 1961 Civil Service LAW & YOU oy HAROLD L. HERZSTEIN Mr. Herzstein Is a member of the New York bar Is Condon-Waldin Dying? ABOUT TWO WEEKS before the State Legislature convened this past Wednesday, its Joint Committee, held a public hearing in New Yoak City on the repeal of the Condon-Waldin Law, and on other relationships between the State and its employees. The purpose of t h e hearing was to report recommendations to the Legislature. I ATTENDED THE hearing as the representative of the State Civil Service Employees Association, and presented a letter signed by its President, Joseph F . Feily, in favor of repeal of the CondonWadlin Law. I noticed that many of the speakers did not refer to the Law as "The Condon-Wadlin Law" or "The Condon-Wadlin A c t " ; but only to "Condon-Wadlin." The feeling was that they were talking about a force rather than a law—that is, a social and political forcie— and even moie than that, an evil social and political force which should be dispelled immediately. LOGIC WAS APPLIED to the issue of the Condon-Wadlin Law for many years; but in recent years it has been supplanted by bitterness. Those who deal with the civil service should know the plain f a c t . Civil service employees regard Condon-Wadlin diehards as their opposition. In Force IS Years THE CIVIL SERVICE has had this antl-sti-ike, anti-civil service legislation for thirteen years. Civil service and labor groups, and others have consistently sought its repeal. The holding of the public hearing by the Ostrander Committee on the repeal of the law is the first real Indication that the pi'esent Legislative and the Executive Departments, may repeal the Condon-Wadlin Law. I F the Ostrander Committee makes the i-ecommendation to the Legislature which t h e speakers I heard made to the Committee, and I F the Legiilatui'e follows the Committee recommendation, and I F the Governor follows the Legislatui-e and signs the bill, then the Condon-Wadlin Law will become a dead duck during the 1961 legislative session. AT THE SESSION of the Committee hearing which I attended, civil service organization opposition to the Condon-Wadlin Law waa unanimous. It Included the State Service Employees Association, the Pata-olmen's Benevolent Association of New York City, the Secondary School Teachers Association and the Parole Officers Association. larly in your paper and In the daily papers about J o h n Cassesse's one-man fight against Police Commissioner Kennedy.

That is inm a t t e r nearly so far. But I t h i n k I correct. It is an anti-strike law, and nothing else. Public employeea it's a shame to quit now, a f t e r the have sufficient real problems, and do not need fancied problems. It is P.B.A. has lost all advantage of a good idea to take a second look at the Condon-Wadlin Law. Mr. Kennedy's tolertion, if not THE CONDON-WADLIN Law is contained in one section of the respect, and the P.B.A. has won Civil Service Law, Section 108. It runs less than two ordinary sized none of its goals. I don't know pages, and is simple and direct.

Feily, president of the Civil Service Employees Association, recently directed letters to the P.W. Superintendent, J . Burch McMorran and to T. Norman Hurd, director of the Budget of the State of New York. Mr. Feily's seven point letter requested that among the immediate improvements, a 40-hour week be established with no loss in take home pay for Barge Canal employees. This action would bring the department's employees on the Bame work week as are other state employee except the State Police. Also, the Employees Association requested the conversion of wages paid to all laborers in the department from a daily to annual rate. In addition, Mr. Feily asked that the department pay the same parking and toll fees now paid to other state employees as well as providing for a meal allowance for maintenance employees during periods of overtime work as well as an increase in the allowance for certain employees from 6 to 9 per day. Other state •mployees under the Comptroller's rules now receive a maximum of 12 to 13 per day. Mr. Feily's letters follow: Letter to McMorran On December 6th we met with your Mr. Rohan and Mr. Welch and discussed in detail the various matters contained in our letter to you, dated Sept. 12, 1960, and in your reply to that letter dated Oct. 81. 1960. We have written to you separately relative to the matter of converting the laborers to an annual pay basis. At the December 5th meeting we discussed a number of matters as follows: 1. We asked the Department's support to the CSEA proposal t h a t the work week of Barge Canal employees be reduced to a maximum 40 hours without loss in take-home pay. This would provide for Canal employees the same treatment which the State gave to institutional employees during the period — 1956-1958. At the meeting we agreed to submit to the Department for its support the legislative measure which our legal counsel will prepare and have introduced in the Legislature to correct this situation, and we hope for your Department's endorsement and active interest In the legislation involved. 2. We are very glad to note t h a t the Department has requested in the 1961-62 Budget additional funds to enable the elimination of the situation wherein certain employees of your Department are required to travel the first ten miles in performance of State duties at their own expense each day. We are also glad to note that your Department has again requested Budget funds to increase the $6.00 per day sub•istence for employees assigned to construction work to •9.00 per day. We are urging tlie Budget Director to approve these requests. S. We are also asking the Budget Director to make funds available to enable reimbursement of gratuities and overnight parking to employees of the Public Works Department as is accorded employees of other State Agencies. 4. We are glad to note that you are on record in favor of payment of a reasonable meal allowance to maintenance employees during periods of overtime worked, and we are also asking the Budget Director for this reasonable arrangement for maintenance employees, a practice which is followed by the Thruway Authority and in private industry generally, and we understand that meal allowances are accorded county employees when working overtime on snow and ice removal work contracted for by the State. Overtime Pay 5. You advised that it was the opinion of your Department t h a t the Civil Service Law would require an amendment in order to enable minimum overtime pay of four hours to employees who are kept on duty beyond the regular work shift or who are called back to duty even though the actual time worked is for a lesser period. We have referred this question to our legal consel, and we will advise you further at a later date concerning this matter. We note t h a t you do agree t h a t such minimum pay is a common practice in private industry, and t h a t the suggestion has considerable merit. 6. We are glad to have your assurance that road maintenance employes do work regularly established work hours, although necessity compels your Department, during winter months for snow and ice control work, to schedule your maintenance employees on a swing shift basis. We had received some complaints that maintenance employees were being called to duty at almost any time during the night and once on duty, these men were retained for their regular 8-hour shift and this was considered to be their day's work. We can understand the work shifts, but we do feel t h a t such scheduling should be done in advance so that the men know their regular work hours in advance and are paid for overtime when called to duty at times outside the scheduled work shift. Policy Matters 7. We are also glad to have your advice that District Engineers and Resident Engineers have all been fully informed about policies of the Department with regard to working hours for the Highway maintenance employees. We had received complaints that in certain instances road maintenance employees were ordered to report at an assembly point a half hour prior to the beginning of the work day, so that travel to the p a r ticular work site would be on the employee's own time, and in these instances the same practice was followed relative to return to the assembly point from the work site at quttlng time. We were also advised t h a t Truck Drivers were ordered to gas up their vehicles on their own time. We will follow your suggestion to call these specific cases of violation of Department policy to the attention of the Department, so t h a t they can be Investigated and corrected. 8. We appreciate your advice that your 1961-62 Budget request asks for an Administrative Officer and a Senior Personnel Administrator in each District Office, and we appreciate your assurance that you will recommend that the present grades, will be given the opportunity to compete for these new positions by promotion examination. We hope to meet with you and the representatives fo your Department relative to matter pertaining to our members employed by your Department, so t h a t the volume of matters to be discussed at each future meeting Is more reasonable. We appreciated the sincere interest evidenced in the problems of the Public Works employees by Mr, Ronan and Mr. Welch of your staff during our meeting with them on December 5th, and we are very hopeful that substantial progres will made towards gaining solution to a number of the problems which affect our members employed by your Department. In a letter to Dr. Hurd, Mr. Felly asked for Immediate action on granting funds, make several working improvements. The letter said: 1. We have written to you separately on the problem of converting the Public Works laborers to an annual pay basis. We hope to meet with you on this problem. 2. Establishment of maximum 40-hour work week for Barge Canal employees without loss in take-home pay. This would provide for these employees the same treatment which the State gave to its institutional employees during the period 1956-58. We urge the State Administration to sponsor legislation to enable this improvement, or support legislation which our Association had Introduced last year and will have Introduced again this year to carry out this proposal. 3. Elimination of the a r rangement whereby certain employees of the Department are required to travel the ^rst ten miles in performance of State duties each day at their own expense. There seems to be no reasonable basis for this contribution out of the pockets of these State employees. 4. Increase from $6.00 to $9.00 per day the subssistence allowance for employees assigned to construction work, as recommended by the State Department of Public Works. The Comptroller's rules now allow employees generally a per diem maximum of $12.00 or $13,00 per day. Allowances 8. Establishment of a r e a - The New York State Department of Civil Service announces the opening of a competitive promotion exam for senior office m a chine operator (addressograph). The salary ranges from $3,500 to $4,350 a year. Applications can be filed up to Feb. 6; the exam Is scheduled for March 11. Candidates for the exam must have been employed In the competitive class In the Division of Employment as office machine operator (addressograph) for one year prior to March 11. Candidates MHEA Sets 2-Day Session In Albany The Mental Hygiene Employees Association will hold a general meeting at 8 p.m., January 23 and a Workshop at 1 p.m., January 24th In the Hotel Wellington. Albany. Present at these meetings will be the officers, and representatives from each institution of the State Department of Mental Hygiene. The general meeting will consist of subject matter pertinent to the personnel of the State Institutions. The Workshop will relate to legislative proposals entirely—the salary resolution having preference. Emll Bollman, chairman of the Legislative Committee, will guide the transaction of business at this workshop. Other members of his committee include: Carl Sabo of Wassaic, William Rosslter of Rochester and Sal Butero, Psychiatric Institute. Information received by this association Indicates t h a t the Governor's special salary study group emphasizes a substantial Increase for the skilled and professional p e r s o n n e (presumably those in grades higher t h a n 10). The Mental Hygiene Employees Association will stress the plight of the people in the lower income brackets of which are in the m a jority in our institutions. The great need for particular attentiton to the many career employees who are the "backbone" of our institutions caring for the thousands of mentally ill and retarded will be illustrated at this meeting. sonable meal allowance to maintenance employees who are kept on duty beyond the regular work day or called back to duty outside their regular work shift. The Comptroller's rules now allow overtime meals for office employes who work 3 hours on any single day—Monday t h r u Friday—or 6 hours on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. It does not seem fair to deprive the low paid maintenance employees of these meals allowances which are standard practices in private industry and on the State Thruway, and we understand t h a t meal allowances are accorded county employees when working overtime on snow and Ice removal work contracted for by the State. 8. Certain employee groups, who already receive less t h a n the maximum per diem allowances established under the Comptroller's rules, weie not acorded reimbursement for gratuities and overnight p a r k ing as made available gener- should have a good knowledge of the operation and maintenance of I addressograph machines and of office procedures. They should have the ability to supervise e f fectively a small group of subor-^ dlnate operators. A senior office machine operator supervises the preparation of various forms, nqtlces, labels, envelopes, and the maintenance of t h e addressograph files. He sets up and adjusts automatic feeding de-, vices on addressograph machines identifies operating difllcultles,^ and makes minor repairs. He as-, signs and reviews work, keeps pro duction records, and trains ne operators. On more difficult work he operates the machines himself. The written test will Include questions on the operation and maintenance of addressograph machines, office practices. Interpretation of printed matter, and*' supervisory principles and techniques. In order to be placed on the promotion eligible list, the performance rating must be s a t i s f a c t o r y ^ ^ If the performance rating Is goodlBR superior, or outstanding, points will be added to the average of the other subjects in the examination. Preference in certification will be given to employees in the promotion area where a vacancy occurs, after which certification will be made from the general list. Application forms may be obtained from the following offices of the State Department of Civil Service: Lobby, Crovernor Alfred ^ E.

Mr. Moynahan, whose salary will be $9,586 per annum, will be assigned to the New York City O f - , flee of the Authority. ally under the amendment to the Comptroller's rules, which were adopted by mutual action of your office and the State Comptroller last year. We believe t h a t this situation should be corrected, and t h a t these employees should receive reimbursement for gratuities and overnight parking In order to treat them equally with their counterparts thruout State service. 7. Establish positions of Administrative Officer and Senior Personnel Administrator in each District Office of t h e Public Works Department in order to enable efficient personnel services to the employees of the Department t h r u out the State. We are hopeful t h a t funds will be made available to carry out the foregoing proposals but If not, w i would like the opportunity of discussing these mattes with you a n d Superintendent of Public Works, McMorran, Jointly. We would appr ;iate your advice in these n Uera.
