82 Years Old
The 82nd anniversary of the
Civil Service
Act was
celebrated reecntly. In a statement
Issued on the occasion, Civil Service Oommlssioners
John W.
Mlacy, L.J. Andolsek and Robert B.
Hampton had this to say:
"On this anniversary, members
of the career sei"vlce may well be
proud of their past performances
and of the traditions of dedication and dependability they have
strengthened and sustained.
"Through the yeara since 1883
—In times of war and peace, of
stress and strain, of challenge
and change—<the stability, skill,
and sense of the civil service have
justified the wisdom of those who
fought to replace the spoils system with the merit system."
Some 77 percent of Federal
employees stationed In the U.S.
work In metropolitan areas. According to the Civil Service Commission, 1,796,231 aides work In
the 216 standard metaopolltan
areas.
The area with the largest number of U.S. employees Is, of course,
Washington, D.C., with 263,185. In

You should file a revised estimate with the Social Security Administration right away; otherwise, you might be overpaid in
benefits which you would have to
refund.

130 cash In a calendar quarter. I

she sits. Will I have to report the
money I pay her?
If your baby sitter works for
you every week of the quarter
(January - March,
April - June,
etc.), her wages would total $52.
T h e law requires t h a t you report
these wages.

denying such a consequence a n d r e m a n d i n g t h e case for

This proceeding was instituted before the promotion list expired and within the four-month statutory limitation , . . Nevertheless the commission asserts that the automatic expiration of
the list (Civil Service Law. sec. 56) cut off any rights petitioners
otherwise had. Such a harsh result need not be considered, because
even if it were true that petitioners cannot be appointed after
expiration of the list, the proceeding is not rendered moot.

( l a c h e s ) . T h e C o u r t h e l d t h i s i s s u e s h o u l d be d e c i d e d a t t h e
trial, s t a t i n g :
It may be that laches may also be asserted or proven with
respect to prosecution of the appeals. Petitioners, of couise, explain the delay in the appeals by their awaiting the results in the
Cohen case, supra. That, too, is a matter for determination as an
issue of fact.

of t h e list, t h e C o u r t r u l e d :
On the other hand, the respondents are right when they say
that appointment of any of the petitioners after the expiration of
the eligible list was a legal impossibility, and they are right, too,
when they say that they could not stop themselves from asserting
the fact of such expiration . . , Even so, the erroneous appointments—though made In good faith—ought to be open to attack by
the petitioners, because as citizens and taxpayers they are entitled
to an opportunity to Insist upon the construction which this court
placed upon the civil service article of the State Constitution . . .

Mulroy also said he was "not

County's approximately 2,300 employees "token raises" of under

The sporting instinct has its pleasant side. But you'll agree that gambling is foolhardy when the stakes are your family's health and a big bite out
of your paycheck.
In comparing medical plans, why not do a little handicapping on your
own and see what kind of odds each plan offers you. You might ask a few
questions on past performance, such as:
Q. Would I be taking a chance on having to pay extra doctors' charges in a
cash allowance program, even though it talks about "paid-in-full" benefits?
A. You certainly are taking that chance in a cash allowance plan. Programs
of that kind can't protect you against unexpected doctor bills for many
services. A major New York City union found that two-thirds of its members who had been hospitalized under a cash allowance plan had to pay the
doctor more than the plan allowed. The "extra" payment averaged $177! In
11 percent of the cases the extra payment was $300 or more! Another union found that two-thirds of its members had to pay doctors' fees over and
above the plan's allowances for care in and out of the hospital.

It was to overcome just such extra payments that H.I.P. was founded by
Mayor La Guardia and selected as the best plan for City employees by
later administrations. Only H.I.P., with its newer way of paying in advance
for medical care provided through groups of highly qualified family doctors and specialists, can really protect you against extra charges.

Q
Am I willing to take a chance on maternity care?
A. In one New York cash allowance program, maternity care is never a "paidin-full" benefit. In another program it is a $125 "paid-in-full" allowance only
If a doctor is picked from a panel of "Participating Family Doctors". But
this panel is made up mainly of general practitioners—not obstetricians. In
H.I.P. there is never any question of cost for complete maternity care by
obstetrical specialists.

Fat
H.I.P.'s high standards require that babies be delivered only by obstetrical
specialists—not by, general practitioners. This reduces another very important area of chance. Perhaps you remember seeing this headline in
the New York Times, "Maternity Study Favors H.I.P. Care". Or this one
In the Herald-Tribune, "Birth Record Found Better Under H.I.P."

LEADER
Oneida County Rejects
8'Point Plan Without
Facts, Mathews Charges
( F r o m Leader C o r r e s p o n d e n t )
UTICA, Feb, 1 — The executive council of the Oneida County chapter, Civil Service Employees Assn., has criticized the Board of Supervisors for rejecting a Chapter
request for County assumption of 8 percent of employees' contributions to the retirement system.
The rejection came in a report
from the planning, research and
personnel committee of the board.
There was no comment when the
report was submitted at a meeting of the supervisors.
Reasons For Rejection
Five reasons were cited by the
committee in rejecting the request. They were:
(1) The cost to the County
would be too high. (2) The County contributes "generously" to the
retirement fund. (3) The retirement system would become virtually non-contributory for employees. (4) Assumption of the contribution would a m o u n t
to
"across - the - board
salary
Increases" for only the employees
in the system. (5> A salary plan
is being studied.
After the committee report, the
CSEA council met and authorized
Joseph A. Mathews, president of
the Chapter, to refute the statements made by the committee.
The report "again demonstrated
ft lack of progresslveness and Interest In the welfare of the employees by the Board of Supervisors," Mathews said. "Through
the lackadaisical attitude of some
members and action without facts
of others, much progressive legislation for the county Is allowed
to be killed or die a slow death in
committee without an opportunity
for action by the full board."
ment System be made non-contributory
and
that
Governor
Rockefeller has endorsed legislation to this effect.
"Assumption of 8 percent will
not make It non-contributory as
employee contribution rates range
from 6.45 to 13.8 percent of employees' salaries," he added.
"Two of the five reasons are
contradictory." Mathews s a i d .
"One states that it would be unfair to employees who are not
members of the system and another states t h a t if the County
assumes the payments non-members would join, making the cost
high."
"In the first place, the 8 percent can not in any way be considered a salary increase. It merely increases the take^home pay of
the employee. This money is applied to the pension portion of
retirement and not the annuity
portion. Any member may elect
to continue his nonnal contribution thus building up the amount
he will receive at retirement,"
Can't Afford It
"Those employees who are nonmembers, other than elective and
exempt employees with questionable tenure, are largely in lower
paid salary grades and cannot
afford the retirement deduction
from their salary checks."
Mathew's Rebuttal
Mathews then commented on
the reasons cited by the committee.
As to the point that the County
already contributes generously at
the rate of 7 to IVi per cent of
employees' salaries. Mathews said
this was a mandatory payment
for municipalities
participating
In the State Retirement System.
The payment is applied to the
pension portion of the retirement
and not the annuity to which the
employee contributes.
Mathews also said that State
Comptroller Arthur Levitt has
advocated that the State Retire-
Binghamton Hospital
Credit Union Names
Board Of Directors
The Binghamton State Hospital
Federal Credit Union elected Its
board of directors at a recent
meeting.
The following officers were
selected: president. Ralph M.
Hutta;
first
vice
president.
Aloylslous Sweeney; second vice
president, Helen K. McAndrews;
treasurer, William Carter; secretary. Grace Lord and
board
members. Bessie Easterwood and
Leslie Newton.
"By the same token, these employees have no provision for their
retirement years and if by the 8
p«}rcent assumption they should
join, the County would be fulfilling an obligation to these employees and their morale would be Improved."
As for postponing action because of the salary plan study,
Mathews said the Increased contribution would be a fringe benefit and should have no bearing
on the plan.
"Although this Association was
and Is In favor of the salary plan,
any review made should be concentrated on placing of positions
In a salary grade which adequately recompenses the employee," he
said.
He also said the Association
had been led to believe In 1963
that the salary plan would result
In better salaries.
Mathews also pointed out t h a t
the cost to the County would be
5.92 percent, not 8 percent, because of the actuarial tables used.
No Meeting
"The committee did not meet
with employee representatives In
considering the request," Mathews
said. "Had we been granted this
consideration,
the
committee
would
have had all facts
presented
and
we feel
certain a more Intelligent report
would have been Issued. In the
face of this, and the lack of a
minority report, the Chapter and
Its watchdog committee can only
assume that all committee members voted against our request."
Mathews said the
Chapter
would continue to "fight for this
benefit,

Travel Policies
(Continued from Page 3)
would reduce to 7.5 cents per
mile the reimbursement for personal cars used In preference to
available pool cars. The Association claims that the current ninecents per mile for the personal
car reimbursement does not fully
reimburse the employee for the
actual cost In making his car
available for State business. Consequently, CSEA does not feel
that the use of the personallyowned car should be reimbursed
at 7.5 cents just because a State
car is available,
CSEA Recommendations
In addition, CSEA made these
recommendations:
• Liberalization of the» proposed uniform subsistence allowance of $11, per day, of which

What A Montana Federal Dittrlci Court
held; Administrative
hearings are not expected "to
conform to all of the procedural
niceties which surround the judicial process."
But, they are expected to maintain certain minimum standards
of fairness. One of these standards is that an accused have "a
reasonable opportunity to know
the claims of the opposing party
and to meet them."
"I conclude that, by rea.'ton of
the refusal of the (state office)
at the hearing . . . to apprise
(the county office manager) of
the evidence against him and
grant him the rights of confrontation and cross-examination,
there was a failure to meet the
requirements of the regulations
and a denial of due process in the
conduct of the hearing." Qus kept
his job. <222 P. Supp. 430)
COMMENT: It is not a valid
argument, courts have indicated,
that disclosure of witnesses in removal proceedings will make It
more difficult for an agency later
to press similar charges against
other employoes.
