The problems of State finance are complicated not only In fiscal terms b u t political ones as well and this delicate matter wUl not be resolved in a few days. Furthermore, as this column pointed out last w e ^ . many newly-elected legislators have a reputation to make both in terms of t h e Legislature and local headlines in the newspapers back home. They need the opportunity o-f time—a long session—to do this and is one of the biggest reasons t h a t an early closing is not expected. The 'Little' Bills Major civil service legislation ivill undoubtedly get the attention it rates but all employee organizations have numerous minor measures they would like to get passed but cannot even get attention to because of the rush t h a t occurs in closing out most sessions of the Legislature. These hills usually effect smaller segments of their oi-ganizations and are necessai-y not only for the benefit of small parts of the membership but also for good internal public relations. One example of this type of bill ii the toll bill affecting Manhattan State Hospital employee members of the Civil Service Employees Assn. These employees must pay a bridge toll to get to work on Wards Island. Employees working on the island under other jurisdictions don't have to pay the toll. This bill has gone right down to the wire on many a legislative session but was t h e n snowed under In the hurry to close down the Legislature. Its passage would effect only a very small part of the Employees Association membership—but to t h a t part of the membership the toll has been a strong irritant for years. SERVICE TuesiTay, February 23, 1965 LEADER Ao Hirst Named New Choirimm Of Reform Assn. Albert Hirst, New York lawyer, h a s been elected chairman of the Civil Service Reform Association. The Executive Committee of the Association—formed nearly ninety yeai-8 ago to promote efficiency a n d quality In the public service and the originator of the civil service system In th« United States—^selected Hirst. He has been a leader of the Association since 1927 and has participated In Its many fights to protect the citizens' interest In public personnel management free from political spoils and based on appointment by merit. In accepting his new post, Hirst said, "I feel greatly honoi-ed to be called upon to head this Association with its proud traditions. All my efforts as your chairman will be directed to this one goal —to make our people insist t h a t civil service shall mean service to the citizens, and t h a t from top to bottom."

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.

NEfEKIKliTPSSHWilKE Onondaga Will Not Increase Working Hours, Kasson Says SYRACUSE, Feb. 1 — Members and officers were "very pleased" with the decision of County Executive J o h n H.

Kasson noted that the Chapter had asked—In one of its five re- gratitude of the Chapter to Mulr quests submitted early last year— I'oy. t h a t employees' hours not be ex"And," he said, "this means tended. that County Executive Mulroy is He also had made similar re- taking a further look Into th« quests in several oral discussions role of the individual employee and his value to the County.

Pay Flan Dissatisfaction Mulroy also said he was "not satisfied" with the new County salary plan, which has been attacked privately by many employees and executives. Critics say the plan, which went into effect this year, gave a large number of the County's approximately 2,300 employees "token raises" of under $25 annually. About 800 County employees work 32V2-hour weeks, 200 work 35 hours and 1,300, or more than one-half, 40 hours weekly. Critics also have pointed out that many employees who work less than 40 hours for which they receive no pay.

I 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. In New York City SPECIAL LOW RATES FOR STATE EMPLOYEES DAILY PER PERSON Airline limousine, train terminal, garage, subvt/ay, and surface transportation to all points right at our front door. Weather protected arcades to dozens of office buildings. 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. NEW YORK'S MOST 6RAND CENTRAL LOCATION 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. IN BUILDING SUBWAY ENTRANCE TO ENTIRE CITY Prepare 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".

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, Named Advisor ALBANY, Feb. 1—Dr. Karl D. Hartzell, administrative officer for the State University at Stony Brook, has been named to the Advisory Industrial Commission of Suffolk County. It Is a threeyear term.

Looking on is Mary Bussing. Moses and Mrs. Bussinc represent the Brooklyn State Hospital chapter of the MHEA. .. 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 Buffalo Tax Unit Has Benefit For Hospital Patients The Buffalo District office of the State Department of Taxation and Finance conducted Its 2nd annual Christmas cheer campaign for the benefit of patients at Buffalo State Hospital. Sponsor and spearhead of this drive was Florence Elliott of the Commodities Tax Section. The Office employees donated four cartons of gift-wrapped packages consisting of warm and gaily colored caps, scarves, mittens, dolls and a very wide assortment of toys and games for children I'anglng In age from 4V2 to 16 years. One of the outstanding gifts was a large bowling game for group enjoyment. The adult patients were not forgotten; $18 in cash was collected and donated so that these friendless and lonely patients would have spending money for snacks, etc. College Conference PROGRAMS — " The 1965 programs of the Mental Hygiene Employees Assn. are' explained to Artinir Commissioner of Mental Hygiene Dr. Citristopher Terreuce, second from left, front, by MUEA president Frank Costello at Winter meeting of tile Association in Albany last week.

In particular It Is requested t h a t the limited reimbursement for travel to and from construction jobs, as regulated by DPW rules, Ije removed because of the u n usual conditions encountered in these jobs, • Space be made available on State expense voucher forms for the employees to enter the full amount of expenses they have Incurred regardless of whether the amount exceeds the maximum relmburseable by the State, • Amendment of the rules to require approval by the Stato Comptroller before an agency head can establish rules providing less reimbursement than provided under the Comptroller's Rules. CSEA reviewed the proposals a t the request of Comptroller Arthur Levitt who said, "Since many State employees are affected by the travel regulations, we wlsU to have the comments of tha Civil Service Smployees Assn. before any changes are made." In addition to discussion with officials of the Department of Audit and Control. CSEA's Special Committee on Subsii»tenca and Mileage also studied the proposals in detail.
