Nassau Chapter Ends Contract I Data On Holiday! Vienzl
Talks; Charges 'Faithlessness' I Time-Off Given | New
^iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiij
(From Leader Correspondent)
MtNEOLA—The Nassau chapter, Civil Service Employees
Assn., on Thanksgiving Eve, was forced to break off negotiations with the County, rejecting what was termed a
"faithless offer" that actually would mean a pay cut.
Chapter president Irving Flaumenbaum said that the chapter
was considering whether to appeal directly to the County
Board of Supervisors in view of
the stand taken by County Executive Ralp G. Caso's negotiating committee.
Flaumenbaum said the County's offer was "ridiculous." He
said the County had demanded a
contract abolishing the 40-year
old graded salary plan in return
for the five percent pay boost
next July.
"Caso is playing brinkmanship" he asserted. Flaumenbaum
City Chapter Sets
Dec. 30 Meeting
;
I
A meeting of the executive
board of the New York City
chapter, Civil Service Employees
Assn., has been called for Dec.
30 to "prepare for the protection
of public employee interests
against any anti-worker moves
that might result from the special session of the State Legislature on the cmTenit budget
ciisis."
Solomon Bendet, chapter presIdent, said delegates would consider what action the Employees
Association might take and to
weigh the possibility of a cooperative effort with all public
employee unions in the State
to fight anti-civil service legislation that might ai'ise in the
1972 session of the Legislature.
The meeting will be held at
5:30 p.m. in Gasner's Restaurant.
Organize
said the union could appeal directly to the Legislative body to
resolve the dispute, could apply
to the Nassau County Public Employment Relations Board for
fact-finding or could sue the
County if it abrogates the traditional term of employment.
Referring to the demand for
an end to the graded salary
plan, Flaumenbaum declared:
"They'll have to do that over
my dead body."
The negotiating team voted
unanimously to terminate the

Suffolk C S E A Goes
Back T o Bargaining
SMITHTOWN — Negotitaions between Suffolk County
and the Suffolk chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn.
resumed last week after the County mini-PERB, in an unusual action, intervened on its own initiative and named a
mediator.
No impasse had been called by
either side, although there had
been no action for almost six
weeks because of confusion over
the wage-price freeze and a hectic local election campaign.
Chapter president Frank Imholz said the CSEA negotiators
were seeking a means to streamline the handling of grievances
and gripes to a permanent labormanagement committee.
"We are attempting to emphasize the positive aspects of the
collective bargaining process,"
Imholz declared. "If we can
achieve a means to quickly resolve disputes before they blossom into grievances, we will have
gone a long way toward improving labor - management relations."
Job security, he asserted, was
also a major issue in the talks.
The money package, he stated,
remains subject to the dictates
of the federal /age-price control

Declares:
Budget. Must
Provide Raises
For State Aides
Decrying the declining purchasing power of public employees because of static pay scales and continuing inflation,
Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl last week declared that "the budget
crisis of the civil servant on the job is every bit as severe
as that of government."
Wenzl made his statement as
a coalition bargaining team,
which will negotiate for most
State employees through the
four bargaining units C^EA
represents, prepared for serious
talks with Administration officials on salary and other benefit
demands the Employee Association will make to the State.
The CSEA leader insisted that
when the State and local government bodies tackle their budgetary problems, the wages of the
working man must be of pi-ime
importance. "If this takes more
taxes and less capital expenditures, then so be it," he declared.
What's Being Sought
CSEA's delegate body, meeting in New York City in September, approved a salary resolution that not only asks for a 15
percent, across-the-board pay
hike for all State workers, but
also seeks an escalator clause
that would protect employees
against a continued inflationary
spiral.
The wage proposal also calls
for an increase in the current
$6,500 minimum wage and continuation of pay differentials
in high-cost-of-living areas.
Several pension demands have
also been proposed and these

(From Leader Correspondent)
ROCHESTER—Monroe County Manager Gordon A. Howe
says the only way he can make the budget cuts wanted by
County legislators is to fire 350 to 400 County employees.
And Legislature Majority Leader Henry W. Williams Jr.
says the County should seek
some way to avoid granting inci-emental "step" increases without actually violating the County's contract with the Civil Service Employees Association.
But Vincent J. Alessi, president of tlie Monroe CSEA chapter, says any curtailment of step
increases would be a contract
violation.
'T don't know how they can
possibly eliminate these step increases without breaching the

Rehab Counselor
Jobs On Increase,
Labor Dept. Says
Despite the current dearth
of jobs for college graduates,
employment opportunities for
qualified rehabilitation counselors are expected to skyrocket
throughout the 1970's, according
to the U.S. Department of Labor.
Herbert Bienstock, regional
director of the Department of
Labor's Bureau of Statistics, reported recently that the employment of rehabilitation counselors
is expected to jump 72 percent
between 1968 and 1&80, to a projected total of 21,000 by 1980.
Openings in this fast-growing
field are expectea to reach 1,000
per year.
Bienstock cited increasing population, vocational rehabilitation, and demographic changes
as reasons for tlie projected demand for rehabilitation personnel. At present, he noted, the
number of counselors being
trained is not meeting the anticipated requirements of the
1970's.
Educational requirements for
these positions are expected to
rise, however, with persons having graduate work in rehabilitation counseling or related
fields expected to find the best
prospects. But persons with experience in tfields such as psychology, social work or education will also have an advantage.

Freedom From Fear
THE RECENT contract demands of the Transport Workers Union drew the always-to-be-expected cries of dismay
from the New York City Transit Authority. It was always
thus—even back in the days when labor unions fought to
get workers the most basic decent wages and working conditions.
OF THE MANY proposals submitted by the TWU, t h e r ^
is one that was completely overlooked and yet, is one that
must be considered of great importance, not only for the
transit employee, but for the health and safety of the riding
public, as well.
THIS ITEM IS one that reflects the feelings of the
Transit Patrolmen's Benevolent Assn. which has been fighting for ix)lice protection on the City's buses and bus routes.
While the need for this vital protection is agreed upon by
all—employees, passengers and public officials—our pleas
have fallen upon deaf ears. While crime and vandalism on
the City's buses increases to crisis proportions, the one
one-half million persons who ride the buses are virtually
without police protection.
AT THIS TIME, the TWU—recognizing its duty and
obligation to its membership—feels sufficiently alarmed to
include in its bargaining demands the establishment of
Transit police protection on all TA surface operations, and
indeed, on all TA facilities.
IT IS A SAD commentary that a concern that should
be the proper and sole obligation of the City—adequate police
protection for citizens and passengers—must be voiced and
fought for by the people most affected and deprived. Ho\
many injured bus drivers and passengers must be taken
hospitals before the City and the TA realize their failure
and act?
IN THE COURSE of representing some 3,200 Transit
policemen, we have visited bus garages and discussed the
problem with drivers, supervisors and other surface transportation officials. Their reports of shocking vandalism,
rock-throwing, unruly youths and destructive and vicious
felons daily fill the files of the police and TA officials. Last
year alone, vandalism on the City's buses cost the TA—
and ultimately the riders and taxpayers—more than threequarters of a million dollars, most of it for repair of broket^ll
glass windows.
NOW, IT MUST be remembered that the City is charged
with providing proper and adequate police protection for all
our citizens. This duty and concept was carried through
when New York State—under the Public Authorities Law—
created the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Under
the law, the MTA and its subsidiary, the Transit Authority,
is mandated and must provide police protection—equal to
that of municipal police protection—on all of its facilities.
THIS LEGAL provision—clearly being neglected—can
provide little comfort to the 378 persons who were reported,
injured last year because of vandalism involving buses. N o ? ^
can it be of any relief to the countless others who failed to
report injuries or harassment, discomfort and fear while
traveling on the surface bus lines of the city.
WE COMMEND the TWU for displaying a deep concern
for the health and welfare of its members—and at the same
^time, expressing concern for all New Yorkers being deprived
of their lawful right of freedom from fear.

OER Rules To RetainAide Assails Rochester
MH Farm EmptoyeesState Personnel Lacks
At No Loss In Pay
ALBANY—All employees of farms run by the Mental
Hygiene Dept. at various State institutions will be retained
at other jobs at their respective institutions at no loss of
pay, despite the phasing out of the farms, the Civil Service
Employees Assn. said last week.
A CSEA spokesman reported
that after a series of protests,
picketing, and individual grievances filed by the CSEA chapters at the 11 State institutions
which had farms, the grievance
was brought to the fourth stage
and a hearing was conducted by
the Office of Employee Relations. CSEA represented all 11
chaptei-s collectively at the hearing.
CSEA contended, according to
collective negotiating specialist
Robert C. Guild, that the closing
out of the farms and termination of some 100 farm employees
was a violation of the CSEAStatc contract provision which
states that there shall be no loss
of present jobs by permanent
employees as a result of the
State's exercise of Its r i g h t . t o
contract out for goods and services.
"Each farm employee will be
retained at another position at
his or her Institution," Guild
said, "and without a loss in pay.
We are gratified that our case
has been upheld."
Guild and CSEA assistant
counsel James Featherstonhaugh
represented the employees at the
hearing. CSEA chapter president
Ray Pritcliard of Rome School
was present as an observer.
"Although the matter is now
settled to our satisfaction, since
all the employees will have jobs
with the same Institutions,"
Guild said, "CSEA is still puzzled
by the State's action In closing
out the farms. The farms were
all self-sustaining and many
made a profit for the State.
They provided products such as
eggs and milk to their own institutions and those nearby. Now
the State will have to contract
out for those products, which In
CSEA's opinion will probably
cost the taxpayers more money
in the end."
patients cannot be provided with
the kind of treatment they need
and the kind of sanitary conditions necessary cannot be maintained.
"Because geriatric
patients
need constant care and are not
getting it, more of them will die
sooner," he declared and said he's
"been complaining ever since the
State Legislature began cutting
the budget."

ALBANY—Theodore C. Wenzl,
president of the Civil Service

death of Raymond A. Heckel,
administrative finance officer for
the Dept. of Mental Hygiene.
"Mr. Heckel was a longtime
active member ol CSEA," said
Wenzl. He was a past president
of the Albany Mental Hygiene

"We feel that we must continue this work even after the

those charged with enforcing the
laws.
"At a recent meeting with
Commissioner (Russell G.) Oswald, we discussed our program."
The Corrections Commissioner's advice, Mrs. Brown said,
was to "get an organization
formed at every correctioiial l a oiUty."
would like you to believe that
they did," he said. "And Gov.
Rockefeller went along with the
Legislature, saying cut the budget at any cost, even people's
lives," Lerner added.
He said that Dr. Harold C.
Miles, director of the Monroe
County Board of Mental Health,
submitted a minimal, standpat
County mental health budget to
the County Legislature but that
County Manager Gordon A.
Howe slashed It by 12 percent.
If Howe's cuts are allowed to
stand, there will be even fewer
mental health services here next
year, Lerner said.
"Local agencies will have to
cut back, which will mean that
more people will have to be
moved into the State hospital,
which will compound the problem," he stated.
Rochester State Hospital Ls
now operating with a 30 percent
vacancy factor; that Is, with
only 851 of the 1,100 staff it had
three years ago. Except for a
short emergency hiring thaw In
September, the hospital has not
hired any new employees since
December 1970, according to
Robert Conley, the liospital's
deputy director. He said fourteen
employees retired between April
1 and September 1 because of
dissatisfaction with - their jobs.
Instead of the attrition rate leveling off, the hospital is In a
worse predicament than It had
expected even "in view of the
hiring freeze.
More Injuries Up
Because of the staff shortages,
Conley said, employees suffer
more on-the-job accidents now.
More are attacked by patients.
Often a single attendant must
restrain a patient so that they
are more likely to get hurt.
From 75 accidents in February, the number doubled to 154
in July. In the geriatric units,
both men and women employees
have suffered an increased number of accidents in the process
of lifting patients alone, without
necessary help. An employee is
more likely now to find himself
receiving
disciplinary
action
from the hospital.
Training also Is not adequate
because of supervisory staff
shortages. Fewer
supervisory
personnel also means a lower
level of maintenance. Treatment
concepts originally planned as
part of unitization have fallen
by the wayside, the team concept is falling back Into discipline specialization, staff members are not plentiful enough
to perl'orm' therapeutic needs,
in-service training has been
curtailed or drastically reduced
and staff members cannot be
spared to visit and form working
relatlorihips with mental health
centers. And the worst long
range effect Is that the credibility of the State Mental Hygiene Dept. as a provider of
job security has suffered.

Thousands of Overseas Jobs I City Examination Status |
Available In Many Career Areas
liimiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiii^
Federal employment opi>ortunitles overseas are found In almost every occupation,
from construction worker to economist. While generally stressing hard-to-find professionals, the agencies sometimes need clerical and administrative personnel also.
in Alaska, Hawaii and U.S. territories, most jobs are filled through civil-service
exams by the local labor market.
T
When the U. s. needs staffing at
a foreign-based installation, the
local labor market is often used
In hiring as part of an agreement to help that country's
economy; that is considered excepted service.
Generally, however, technical
and administrative posts employ
U. S. nationals. Career employees are frequently assigned to
such posts by transfer from their
home bases. The Department of
Defense, the largest American
agency employing overseas, uses
this method.
An estimated 60 Nationwide
exams are held to €ill these various openings. Exams cover such
areas as business and econoAiics,
engineering and scientific, medical and social fields. Educators
and tradesmen are also in constant demand.
Interested
persons
should
specify the appropriate area and
write to: U. S. Civil Service Commission, Washington, D.C. 1^415.
The local Commission office is
located at 26 Federal Plaza, New
York 10007.
Applicants should observe that
some positions are excepted
from civil sei-vlce status: Foreign Service titles, dependents'
school teachers, and most interpreter and translator jobs, for
Instance. Such vacancies are
filled directly through the appointing agency.
A thumb-nail sketch of the
agencies doing tlie hiring and
their special needs has been
compiled. Write directly to these
agencies for details of the up-todate liiring picture.
mational or cultural. Informational employees will need solid
background in media work. Occasionally, technical openings
arise. Candidates for cultural
posts will need teaching or academic research experience plus
exposure to some form of international cultural relations.
Ability to speak and learn a
foreign language Is essential, as
is a strong background in the
social sciences and a demonstrated ability to communicate
effectively.
Need additional details? Write:
Chief, Personnel Services Staff,
U. S. Information Agency, 1776
Pennsylvania Ave., Washington.
D. C.
Agriculture Dept.
Agricultural attaches and staff
secretaries are customarily trans-
ferred, with Department employees usually getting the call. Initial appointments of agricultural economist and agricultural
marketing specialist are made
through the Federal Service Entrance Exam. Secretarial personnel are already employees in
the main, but some clerk-steno
jobs are filled via open-competitive tests followed by training
held in Washington, D. C.

Primarily, Department employees are reassigned overseas.

State Pay Raise
u
G
Legislature are issuing dire warnings almost daily on
the fiscal crisis faced by the State, and we agree that the
OVERNOR ROCKEFELLER a n d t h e l e a d e r s of t h e s t a t e
situation is grave, indeed.
Nevertheless, there appears to be some degree of brinkmanship here through overstatement, especially in the
liberal use of the word "bankrupt." Common sense tells us
that the politicos must soften up the public for a package
of new taxes and, probably, less State aid, but experience
tells us that part of the softening up is also a diversion to
avoid granting public employees pay and pension adjustments that must come to keep civil servants from economic
disaster.
Public employees in the State won't even get any benefits—presuming they are granted—until next April. This
means that they are carrying the full brunt of the inflationary-spiral of the last two years right now. Employees in the
private sector, in the main, have won pay packages that
allow them to keep up; not so, the public employee.
No matter what happens, the State's solution to budget
problems must include a pay raise for State workers,
whose budget problems are every bit as severe as those of
government -if not worse!
Social Security Questions & Answers
Q. My regular einploj*cr deducted social security contributions from my pay until my
earnings reached $7,800. I also
worlted part time for another
company and they withheld social security contributions on
the $3,000 I earned with them.
Since I paid the maximum contributions in my regular job, was
my part-time employer correct
In taking social security contri*
butions out of my pay?
A. Yes. Each of your employers must withhold social security
contributions on the first $7,800
paid you in a year. However,
you can claim the excess social
security contributions you paid
as a credit against your income
tax or as a refund at the time
you file your Federal income tax
return.
Q. Even though I am 66 years
old, I am still working full time.
My friends told me that I should
find out about my social security
retirement benefits. Should I do
this when I'm still working?
A. Yes, for several reasons.
Even tliough you are still working, you might be eligible for
some social security checks. It
all depends on your earnings.
And, you could be missiiig out
on valuable protection under the
Medicare program.
Q. 1 just started working and
paying into social security. Can
you tell me how long a persor.
must work under social security
to be eligible for benefits Mt reth'ement age?
A. Anyone starting his or her
working career now will be fully
insuvoHi for retirement benefits
after 40 quarters (10 years) of
work under social security. But
don't forget that younger workers are also protected by social
security disability and survivors
insurance before they have worked t h a t long.
Q. A woman who helps me
with my cleaning every week also
works in several other homes.
She says that since one of her
employers is reporting her wages
for social security I do not need
to report what I pay her. Is this
true?
A. Not necessarily. If you pay
her $50 or moi'e in a calendar
quarter of the year, you are required by law to report her wages
and to send in the social security oontilbutions — no m a t ter how many of her other employers may also be reporting
her wages. Any social security
benefits payable to her in the
future Mill be based on a record
of all her wages reported during
her working years.
Q. My wife and I receive a
combined monthly social security
check. She plans to visit our
daughter for several months and
will be away from home. Can
my wife get her benefit in a
separate check?

tors t h a t have not yet emerged.
The special session of the Legislature t h a t will be convened
to deal with the fiscal crisis is
likely to become a m a r a t h o n
session t h a t will simply merge
into the regular session scheduled to open in January. The
issues t h a t will confront the
legislators are complex and are
unlikely to be resolved in a neat,
tidy, short special session.
Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller disclosed the full dimensions
of the crisis when he publicly
announced t h a t the State is
faced with a total budget deficit
of $1.5 billion in the current and
coming fiscal years. He grimly
described the State's financial
picture as on a precarious perch
of "bankruptcy" — a political
epithet used typically by the opposition party to describe an incumbent administration. In order to bridge this budget gap,
the Governor will have no recourse but to recommend a combination of increased taxes and
budget cuts. Since almost twothirds of the budget appropriates
funds for education and for local
governments, those areas are
likely to suffer two-thirds of the
State retrenchment program.
Trouble In Assembly
The recommendations that will
be made by the Governor will
face relatively smooth sailing in
the Senate, where the Senate Majority Leader exercises firm but
gentle control over his delegation. The major battle will take
place on the Assembly floor,
where the Republican contingent
is more volatile and more prone
to run off in different directions.
Moreover,
Assembly
Speaker
Perry B. Duryea, Jr., a prospective candidate for Governor, has
demonstrated a substantial degree of independence of the
State administration in fiscal
matters. In all of this. Senate
Mmority Leader Joseph Zaretzki
and Assembly Minority Leader
Stanley Steingut will be occupants of cat-bird seats, since it
will be Republican responsibility
to muster majority votes for the
new fiscal programs.
First Moves
Tlie political sparring is already well under way. The Governor called a well-publicized
meeting of leading County officials to give them a detailed picture of the stark realities that
loom over the horizon. Mayor
John V. Lindsay called a meeting
of the "Big Six" mayors and
county officials to warn against
any cuts in State aid to localities. Both the Governor and the
Mayor are calling on Congress
to move ahead on Federal revenue sharing progi-ams.' This
may be nothing more t h a n an
exercise in scapegoating, since
the Federal budget may turn up
with a $25 billion deficit.
Cuts in State aid appropriations for local governments and
for education raise their own
special problems, since these
government levels are financially
hard pressed. Nassau County
was obliged to increase its sales
tax from six to seven percent.
Property taxes in Albany are
slated for a whopping 64 percent increase. Many school districts are on austerity budgets
and are threatened with strikes
by teachers.

The Arbitration Process
AS THE USE of arbitration for the final step in a contract grievance procedure becomes more common and accepted practice, we must know more about the arbitration
process and its legal Implications and limitations. (See
9/7/71 Leader article). A recent case in Kings County Supreme Court emphasized the proposition that where a labor
agreement so provides, the decision to proceed to arbitration
for an employee grievance rests solely with the union. T h a t
case also pointed out that an employee represented by a
union for the purpose of collective negotiations is bound by
those negotiations and must accept that which is in the
resulting agreement. Goldin v. Board of Education, 342 NYS
823.
IN THAT CASE, a New York City school teacher, who
was granted a teaching license without a baccalaureate degree, made application after several years of teaching for
a second salary differential increase. The collective bargaining agreement provided that such a teacher needed 60 completed semester hours of approved study beyond those.which
had previously been accepted by the Board of Examiners as
the equivalent of a baccalaureate degree. The teacher claimed that under a different clause in the agreement, it was-not
necessary to have the 60 additional credits in order to obtain the next salary differential increase.
THE LABOR agreement also contained detailed language
pertaining to grievances and arbitration. It was clear from
the contract that the union and the Board of Education
had agreed to treat arbitrators' decisions as binding precedents. In this case, the union refused to take the teacher's
case to arbitration because in a previously decided grievance
on similar facts, a decision had been rendered against the
union. The court pointed out that an employee cannot avail
himself of the arbitration procedure provided for in the collective bargaining agreement where the contract granted
such right only to the union and the employer. In addition,
the court said that since the teacher seeks the benefits of a
collective bargaining agreement, she is also bound by all its
terms which may have been negotiated for the overall benefit of the employees in the bargaining unit.
IT IS A GENERAL legal proposition that courts and
judges do not decide or rule on matters before them which
are not necessary in order to decide a case. In another recent case decided in the Erie County Supreme Court, the
Board of Education petitioned the court for a stay of a n
arbitration which had been requested by the Teachers' Association under its collective bargaining agreement with the
Board. The court explained that under the arbitration provisions of the Civil Practice Law and Rules, the court could
stop the arbitration only on certain very limited grounds—
if there was no valid agreement to arbitrate, if the agreement had not been complied with, or the claim is barred
by the statute of limitations.
IN THIS CASE, there was no claim that the agreement
to arbitrate was invalid. It was contained in the contract
between the association and the Board, and there is ample
statutory authority for such an agreement. Sec. 209 CSL and
Sec. 1709 Education Law. The association had complied fully
with all the preliminary grievance steps prior to requesting
arbitration and the claim was very recent.
The court concluded with that often-stated rule of law
that where a party moves to stay arbitration, the court does
not pass upon the merits of the case, but merely on those
matters necessary to determine whether the matter is properly the subject of arbitration. Board of Education v. Grand
Island Teachers' Association, 324 NYS 2d 717.
that adverse public reaction to
new taxes and budget cuts will
help them capture control of the
State Legislature next November,
a circumstance that will impair
the gubernatorial aspirations of
Speaker Duryea but may advance those of Lieutenant Governor Malcolui W i l ^ n , who will
characteristically do yeoman behind-the-scenes work for the
Governor's fiscal program but he
will not personally be involved
in the direct line of fire.
From whatever angle one approaches the fiscal crisis, it is
clear t h a t a new alignment oX
political forces is in the offing.

balancing the State's troubled fiscal situation.
He pointed out that the firings that did take
place have put State services at an absolute operable minimum and that "the danger level has now
been reached in terms of working, personnel."
Wenzl said that the State is fully aware that
it cannot cut any more personnel from the payroll. At the same time, he declared that it would
be "immoral" for the State to ask presently employed workers to go without a pay raise in order
to help balance the budget.
"When the United States government recognizes that the impact of inflation is so strong that
it must intervene, imagine the impact of the last
two years on civil servants who are bound by contracts not to get any pay adjustment until April
1 of next year at the earliest," Wenzl declared.
The CSEA president said that the Employees
Association demands were equitable in terms of
what has happened to the national economy.
The salary demands of the CSEA—and illustrations of what they would do—follow.
STATE SALARIES
SALARY DEMAND NO. 1—A 15 percent acrossthe-board salary increase for all State employees represented by CSEA as well as those
designated as management-confidential.
Explanatory Note: The effect of this demand is
to provide a 15 percent salary increase for all
State employees represented by the CSEA in
positions both allocated and not allocated under
Section 130 of the Civil Service Law. It includes positions designated as management and
confidential since most of such positions are
allocated under Section 130 and are similar to
or identical with the title structure of other
positions not designated as management and
confidential. This demand would amend the
State salary schedule, effective April 1, 1971,
by increasing each step in each grade by 15
percent. The salary increase herein demanded
is to be effective on April 1, 1972.
*
*
•
SALARY
DEMAND NO. 2—Include in a negotiated salary agreement a cost of living escalator clause based on the New York-Northeastern
New Jersey Consumer Price Index covering all
items (1967-100) 1971 revision published by
the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor. We recommend that the escalator clause be computed on index-salary relationships using the index for the month during
which our contract commences as the base index. Adjustments should be made semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each fiscal
year.
E.vphniatoru Note: The Consumer Price Index for
the New York-Northeastern New Jersey area,
covering all items (1967-100) 1971 revision
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
U.S. Department of Labor for the month of
April 1972 would be used as a base and to
determine index-salary relationships.
Illustration: Assuming that the Consumer Price
Index, referred to in the previous sentence, was
126.9 for the month of April 1972, and assuming that the average State salary at that time
was $8,900, then the index-salary relationship
would be $8,900 divided by 126.9, or $70.13.
This means that every point in the Consumer
Price Index would be worfh $'<0.13. Thus, for
each point increase in the index, an escalator
adjustment in State salaries should be made in
the amount of $70.13 on an annual basis. Such
adjustments should be made semi-annually on
April 1 and October 1 of each fiscal year during the life of the contract.
«
SALARY
*
•
DEMAND NO. 3—That the CSEA take
all necessary steps to guarantee the payment
of all increments contained in the State salary
schedule to all employees by removing present
statutory limitations which have caused a loss
of increments because of negotiated flat dollar minimum pay increases.
Explanatory Note: Present statutory limitations
prevent many State employees whose positions
are allocated under Section 130 of the Civil
Service Law, from receiving all of their service and longevity increments. Section 130 and
any other appropriate statutes should be amended to permit the granting of all increments
contained in the salary schedule to each eligible
employee in addition to any negotiated pay increases.
*
•
•
SALARY DEMAND NO. 4—Provide an additional longevity increment for each five years of
service a f t e r an employee has reached the
maximum (fifth year rate) of his salary grade.
Explanatory
Note: This demand requires an
amendment to the State salary schedule contained in Section 130 which would add an adtional longevity increment for each five years
of service in grade beyond the present extra
longevity increment which is now available
a f t e r completion of ten years of service at the
maximum of each salary grade.
*
+
•
SALARY
DEMAND NO. 5—Continue and increase to $6,500 the minimum annual salary for
all State employees who have completed 26 biweekly payroll periods of service in full pay
status.
Explanatory
Note: This demand requires an
amendment to Section 130 of the Civil Service
Law and should include proportionate adjustments for permanent incumbents in part-time
and seasonal positions.
SALARY
DEMAND NO. 6—Continue and increase the locational pay differential for the
nine counties in the Metropolitan New York
Area and Monroe County to $500 annually, extending this benefit to part-time employees.
Explanatory
Note: This demand requires an
amendment to Section 130 of the Civil Service
Law which would continue locational pay differentials in the counties where they now exist,
increasing such differential to $500 annually
and covering in part-time employees.
* • +
+
•
•
SALARY DEMAND NO 9—Negotiate an agreement that the State will negotiate salary matters which would apply to specific groups of ^Pll
State employees or a specific situation on a
bargaining unit basis—such as hazardous pay
for certain occupations, additional pay for academic achievement, additional pay for variations in dollar volume of contracts supervised
by engineers, etc.
Explanatory
Note: In our last round of negotiations with the State leading to our current
contracts, no salary matters could be negotiated at the bargaining unit level. Since salary matters, such as those used as illustrations '
above, affect specific groups of State employees
rather than all State employees it is appropriate that such matters be deemed negotiable
items in unit negotiations.
(
*
*
•
SALARY DEMAND NO. 10—Extension of minimum annual salary increases provided by Section 12 of Chapter 158 of the Laws of 1970
will be applied to each employee hired on April ^
1, 1971, or later and in full time employment ®
status as of March 31, 1972, as well as extension of the minimum annual salary increases
granted effective April 1, 1970, October 1, 1970,
and April 1, 1971, and any negotiated general
salary increase for 1972 will be applied to the
resulting annual salary of such employee.
Explanatory
Note: This demand would adjust
the annual rate of compensation for employees
who entered State service during the fiscal year
commencing April 1, 1971, to the rate of com- #
pensation that such employees would be entitled to receive on April 1, 1972, had such entrance occurred on March 31, 1968.

employee's normal rate of pay, except f o r
holiday premium pay as presently provided.
Explanatory Note: At the present time eligible
employees receive overtime f o r work in excess
of 40 hours at the rate of time and one-half.

Fellow Employee Defends
Mrs. Duffy's Fight For
Mental Hygiene Standards
r
C/3
M
An attack upon the president of the Pilgrim State
Hospital chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. has
been vigorously rebutted by a fellow CSEA member at the
Hospital. Both the attack and the response appeared in the
Hospital's monthly publication.
Pilgrim Press.
The attack on Mrs. Julia Duffy's actions was made by the
Catholic chaplain at Pilgrim
State, the Reverend Thomas S.
Foi'ker, who accused her of seeking the dismissal of Dr. Henry
Brill, director of Pilgrim State.
In addition, he said that patient
care had deteriorated because of
sloppy performance on the part
of employees.
To this, Mrs. Duffy was quick
to point out that in her press
conference she had called for
the resignation or removal of
State Commissioner of Mental
Hygiene Alan Miller, but that
the director of Pilgrim State was
never mentioned.
She said the press conference
had been called to point out to
taxpayers how badly the patients are faring due to mismanagement by the Department
of Mental Hygiene and how employees are being overworked
and injured due to inadequate
staffing.
Praises Mrs. Duffy
Alfred O, Carlsen, grounds department representative at the
Hospital, responding to the article in the Pilgrim Press by the
chaplain, said that "we have
found her to be a kind, sensitive woman, loaded with compass i c . for her fellow man. This
woman is truly outraged at the
gross injustices existing. . . . We
have only one Julia Duffy to
fight for us."
As the Mental Hygiene representative to the CSEA Board of
Directors from the Metropolitan
and Long Island areas, Mrs.
Duffy has pulled no punches in
speaking her mind, as exemplified by her call for Dr. Miller's
resignation.
It comes as no surprise then
that "Ishe herself should be a
center of controversy, as evidenced by the article by the
chaplain and the equally forceful
response in her defense.
Both the article and the letter
are printed below. The first is
that of the Reverend Father
Forker.
Father Forkcr's Article
"There was a song popular
several years ago which had as
Its refrain, 'There are going to
be some changes made.' That
prediction certainly has come
true.
"Over the past year or so, the
number of retirements of key
personnel lias been very great.
People who worked here for
years and who helped to contribute to tlie overall spirit of
the hospital have retired. On
every level, from the center girl,
who knew where everything was
and who kept all the proper
foru^ filled out and turned in,
to the chief supervisors who
made it their business to know
all about every employee so that
each was treated fairly yet firmly to acliieve the desired end of
good patient care, there have
been retirements.
"Now the closing of the Edgewood Division 1« going to make
for more changes. Established
orders and procedures will have
to be completely reworked. A
new 'pecking order' will have to
be discovered.
"But the greatest change is
the evolution of the Civil Service Employees Assn. as a labor
union with such pretention to
power that the local president
does not hesitate to give interviews in which it is stated
that she intends to force her
will on the Department of Mental Hygiene, and in which she
states that she will not rest
until she has forced our director,
Dr. Brill, into retirement or resignation.
Indeed, these are
changes.
"So a situation has come about
in which the mantles of authority which were worn so casually
and so easily for many years
have fallen on new shoulders.
New hands will be instruments
of power. Now we will have to
see how things work out.
"We have always had a good
spirit here at Pilgrim. Patient
care was something to brag
about and the relationships between the various levels of staff
were, in my opinion, very fine.
Indeed, various pressure groups
had to dig a great deal to find
things to complain about.
'Wheel Of Change'
"The wheel of change has put
into the hands of those of us
who are here now the opportunity to shape things anew. What
will we produce? On the one
hand, there seems to be a slackness setting in; people not reporting for work and performing
sloppily, a seeming apathy on
the part of many supervisory
positions. On the other hand, the
great movement of patient population makes necessary an even
greater effort on the part of all
to see that each patient is properly cared for.
"The past had its chance and
we were proud of it. What the
future will be depends on each
one of us who is here now. Let
us hope that the changes that
come about as a result of our
actions and attitudes will reflect
credit on each of us, and result
in ever-better patient care and
ever-improved and happy relationships between all the employees and staff."
In response to this. Pilgrim
State employee Carlsen wrote:
"Relative to your article in
the November 1971 issue of the
Pilgrim Press entitled "From the
Chaplain's Desk"— disagree with
your statement—"Mantles of authority (and so forth) have fallen on new shoulders."
"In reality what has happened
— the Pilgrim State socio-economic scene Is finally coming
out of the Dark Ages, and is now
slowly, but surely, taking its
rightful place in the up-to-date
labor-management
scene.
In
short, Pilgrim and the New York
State Department of Mental Hygiene are thirty years behind the

"You also state in your article, "What will we produce?"
Should not the question be,
"How shall we, together, remove

some workers are compelled to
receive supplemental welfare in

This woman is truly outraged at
the gross injustices existing, not

Mental Hygiene, and do you
know—we have seen her moved

HAND-RAISING O C C A S I O N —
The recent installation of officers for the Housing
& Community Renewal chapter. Civil Service Employees Assn., was conducted by field representative Ann Chandler, left. New slate includes, from
pmm
left: Frederick Maltz, third vice-president; Lester
M. Chance, second vice-president; Phyllis L. Ferguson, secretary; Thomas A. DiNatale, first vicepresident; Martin E. Geraghty, president, and
Phyllis Runco, treasurer.
(Continued from Page 1)
part of the contract, and I'm
sure they will have to live up
to it."
Alessi also hit hard at talks
about firing people. "Firings
create, not solve problems," he
said.
Howe pointed out that there
are 4,112 authorized jobs in the
proposed County budget, but only 3,825 of them actually are
funded.
He has been told by Republican legislators to present a revised budget that would reinstate some liealth programs without raising taxes. His original
proposed budget called for an
average property tax rate increase of $2.29 per $1,000 assessed valuation, which would
jump to $2.70 if the health programs were reinstated without
trimming the budget elsewhere.
More than $5 million in money
raised by County property taxes
— as opposed to money reimbursed by the Federal or State
governments or through other
sources of revenue—would have
to be trimmed from Howe's orig-
inal $195 million proposal i f ^ ^
tax hike is to be avoided.
"That would mean maybe 350
to 400 jobs," Howe said.
Majority Leader Williams estimated that at least 250 positions
would have to be cut. He also
said that step increases might be
avoided by "raising the standards used in the evaluation of
employees," a requisite for the
step increases.
^
Employees are eligible for JT
step increase in pay each year
during their first five years of
employment.
Williams said that such staff
departments as planning, budget
and public information should
bear the brunt of the cuts. He
said such departments as public
works and parks that provide
sei-vices to people still would be
cut, but not as much as the
others.
0
Another source said that 25
higli-ranking administrators who
are covered by union contracts
would be asked to accept only
a 5.5 percent wage increase
rather than the 7 percent specified in their contracts.

Schenectady City Chapter Installs
At Fredonia
FREDONIA—The first-ever
w o r k c o n t r a c t for t h e F a c u l t y - S t u d e n t Association a t
t h e S t a t e U n i v e r s i t y College
of New York at Fredonia has
been negotiated by the Civil Service Employees Assn.
The 150-member organization
chose the CSEA in a representative election in April. The members provide feeding, dormitory
and book store service to the college.
"The employee elected CSEA
to represent them after seeing
what State employees gained under CSEA leadership," commented Thomas B. Christy, CSEA
field repi-esentative who helped
negotiate the FSA contract.
The pact, ratified this month,
provides a six percent raise this
first year and a five percent
raise the second. It also increases holidays and vacation benefits.
"The important thing," Christy said, "is that the employees
now' have a contract guaranteeing them their benefits and
are no longer at the whim of
management."
He said the FSA was currently
preparing a constitution to submit to CSEA headquarters in
Albany for charter verification.
The program for the conference covers three aspects of
professional involvement in parks
and recreation: aging, parks and
youth.
Sykes will represent the union
viewpoint on a panel which also
includes Nelson Potter, associate
agency labor relations represen- ^
tative for the State Department
of Parks and Recreation; and
Robert Dispenza, director of
Parks and Recreation for the
City of Rochester. Dispenza will
reflect the view of management
and Potter will represent liaison
between management and union.
Potter will also act as panel
moderator.
Keynote speaker for the conference will be James A. Peter- ^
son, associate professor of Recreation and Park Administration
at the Indiana University School
of Health, Physical Education
and Recx-eation, and specialist in
Recreation and Parks with the
Cooperative Extension Service at
Purdue University.

talks, althoUb'h spokesmen paid
tribute to the efforts of a mediator brought in two weeks ago
when CSEA rejected an earlier
offer.
The disruption of talks contrasted sharply with a tradition
of labor-management relations
in the county.
Flaumenbaum, who had not
taken part in the negotiations,
said he was willing to step in to ^
resume negotiations if Caso
chooses to personally face the
CSEA coznmittee.
