People basically want to believe what they are told, especially when the information carries the imprint of authority and is reported in responsible news media. Unfortunately, that makes It possible for self-seeking persons to win recognition on the flimsiest kind of presentation. , MOST OFTEN, It is not until long after the applause' subsides that the truth becomes apparent; by then, the cynics have scored their points and left to seek out the next hit-and-run victim. THE KNAPP COMMISSION fits that description exactly. Now that It has faded far enough Into the past so that It can be viewed with some perspective and some detachment, the Knapp Commission hearings deserve a second look. They offer a useful lesson in the use of smear tactics: how easy :y J It is to throw mud, and how long It takes for the truth to catch up. LOOKING BACK, it's hard to believe that the Commis^ sion got away with the tactics it used, but that's part of the lesson. When lies are big enough, and when they are presented confidently enough, it's almost impossible for the public to avoid jumping to the wrong conclusion. THE COMMISSION began its Investigation by following policemen into luncheonettes to see whether they paid for their coffee. In several instances, they recruited self-admitted wrongdoers, wired them with tape recorders, and sent them out to try to entrap other police officers. When the publicity developed by these sensational activities began die for lack of real evidence, the Commission revived publf interest by issuing an Interim report which was filled with authoritative-sounding accusations. STILL NO REAL evidence, but it served to win more headlines. Finally, when the effect of those unsupported charges began to wear off, it was time for the third stage: the Roman circus public hearings, in which witnesses whose character and motives (by their own admissions) were open to question finally levied the charges on which the whole episode was based. EVEN THEN, the bad faith should have been obvious there was no opportunity for the accused to confront the accusers, no chance for opposing counsel to explore the cred-^ ibility of the witnesses. "After all," the Commission excused itself as it destroyed the reputations of thousands of men, "this is not really a trial. We just want to develop information." Meanwhile, the New York Civil Liberties Union was calling the hearings a "civil liberties disaster." SO THE MONTHS went by, the damage was done, and the headlines died out. Now at last, the truth is slowly beginning to emerge. One of the witnesses has already been Indicted for perjury in connection with his testimony. Just days ago it was announced that another major witness under investigation in connection with a serioas crime thi took place before the hearings began. AS USUAL, these disclosures do not generate the same degree of interest and excitement as the original sensational charges, and the first impression can never be completely erased. I THINK WE must learn to react a little more slowly and cautiously to anyone who seeks to inject himself into int the spotlight with "relevations" about our most important ive J institutions, especially when the assertions seem to have no real proof behind them. And I think we must learn to b e ^ careful with old cliches like "where there's smoke ther^ fire," Sometimes the smoke is caused by a wishful thlnkg trying to fan up a flame hi a damp pile of last year's leaves CIVIL SERVICI LiAOH Amarico'f Leading W««kly For Public Emplay«*t Published Each Tue*dar (>69 Atlanitc Street Siumford.

Review of protested key answers and merit and seniority ratings has been virtually completed by the fiveman validation board. This new list, drawn from results of Exam 0720 held on June 5 and July 31, 1971, replaces the old lieutenant eligible list which expired on Feb. 5, shortly after the last remaining eligibles on It had been promoted. Although there were two test dates for Exam No. 0720 last year, only one list will be established; 7,850 candidates took the exam. A new exam for promotion to captain l5 scheduled for March 25; filing has al- ready closed. The current eligible list for captain was established on Nov. 8, 1968, so should be due to expire in November of this year. So far, No. 283 of the list of 455 names has been appointed, the last promotions being made on March 2. The battalion chief list was established on April 9 of last year. The last promotion, made on March 2, was of eligible No. 43 on the list of 215 names. No new exam is foreseen at this point. The deputy chief roster was established on May 11, 1970, with 93 eligibles. The last iM-omotion, made on March 2, 1971, was of list No. 30. No new exam Is currently foreseen. The Leader will continue to report movement in these eligible lists as promotioiis are made or new test results become available.

OLICEMEN in New York City and the employees of New York State have good reason to raise the question of "Whatever has happened to good faith negotiations?" Neither group, at the moment, is receiving any of the major benefits of this type of bargaining that the Office of Collective Bargaining in the City and the State Public Employees Relations Board was intended to insure. P What is alarming about the negotiations between OCB and the Patrolman's Benevolent Assn. is the unilateral, uncalled-for and outright interference by Police Commissioner Patrick Murphy in bargaining talks that were proceeding fairly well until last week. In a public statement, Murphy said in essence that he had become "impatient" with the PBA negotiations and issued on his own a series of CM-ders on how the Police Department would be run, a series of orders that dismissed the value of any contract obUgations that might be reached between the PBA and OCB. The result, as PBA president Edward J. Kiernan charged, was to sabotage the negotiations and they have now been called off until, as Kiernan demanded, meaningful negotiations resume between his organization and the proper people, the Mayor and the Office of Collective Bargaining. As the PBA leader noted with evident anger: "No other union has had to bargain with a commissioner. We don't Intend to either." Not surprisiiigly, Kiernan called on Murphy either to run the Police Department and not a political campaign to be the next Mayor of New York or to resign, a cogent statement with which we agree. At the same time, policemen have now worked 14 months without a contract. We urge the City to keep Murphy out of the picture and to get a just pact negotiated in order to avoid the results of implied police job action if something isn't done. As to negotiations between the State and the Civil Service Employees Assn., the charge is not one of interference but indifference. To date, PERB representatives have engaged in absolutely no meaningful dialogue with CSEA leaders on their financial demands for State workers in a new contract. As a result, mediators have been called in because of an impasse, but there, too, little Is happening, a t least at Leader presstime. Public employees seemingly were not sold the Taylor Law but a bill of goods. Civil servants are subject to all sorts of penalties for disobeying the law, but there is absolutely no apparent means to force PERB to respond to the mandates of that same law—namely, to bargain in good faith. Collective bargaining was widely hailed as the means to bringing peace with justice to the public employee sector. It has not always failed. But in these two major instances it appears that professional bargaining technicians are being used merely to keep a distance between labor and the elected members of government who. In the long run, are the final word on financial benefits. Perhaps it would be better to go back to the old way of negotiating with the purse holders, not the office holders.

Blow Against Union Security^ ANOTHER BLOW has been struck by State PERB against union security provisions in contracts between public employers and the unions which represent their employees. In the case of Erie County and the Erie County chapter of CSEA, the hearing officer decided that a "maintenance of membership" provision contained in a contract between Erie County and AFSCME was illegal, and that the employer could not refuse to honor a written direction from an employee to discontinue his dues deduction authorization. The agreement in question contained the following clause: Each employee who, on the effective date of this Agree-® ment is a member of the Union, shall maintain his membership in the Union for the duration of this Agreement. Each employee hired on or after the execution of this Agreement, who becomes a member of the Union shall maintain membership in the Union for the duration of this Agreement. AFSCME CONTENDED that the Clause was legal because there is nothing in the Taylor Law which forbids such a union security provision. The General Municipal Law provides in section 93-b that a written dues deduction a u t h o i ^ zation may be withdrawn at any time. However, it was argued, quite correctly, that for PERB to find that an improper practice had been committed, the violation had to be found in the Taylor Law and not in some other statute. THE HEARING OFFICER saw the issue as whether a maintenance of membership provision interferes with, restrains or coerces an employee in the exercise of his right to form, join or participate in or refrain from forming, joining or participating in any employee organization of his own choosing. (Sections 209-a.l (a) and 202, Civil Service Law). "Such language," says the hearing officer, "Ls a l l solute." He compares this provision with the National Labor Relations Act (Taft-Hartley) which contains a similar guarantee for an employee, but specifically states that it shall not be illegal to require union membership as a condition of employment. THEREFORE, IT was held that the mere act of signing the contract with a maintenance of membership clause, whether or not it was ever enforced, constituted an improper practice. This was so even though the so-called restraint applied only to those who voluntarily joined the union ^ the first place and were required to maintain their membership. The clause in question merely required continued payment of dues; it did not mandate a discharge. The decision further holds that the refusal of the County to honor the withdrawal notices constituted discrimination against the employees in question. I do not believe that the statute calls for such an interpretation. The employer did not discriminate; he refused to honor withdrawals from any employees; it was not done on a selective basis. It may be that maintenance of membership Is an interference with an employee's right to refrain from participating in a union, but from the facts of this case, a finding of discriminati(|| does not appear warranted. THE TIME HAS come to put all these arguments and discussions to rest. The Legislature has an opportunity at this session to enact a law which will specifically permit union security and put an end to the "free loader" and "free rider" who wants all the benefits and none of the responsibility. The employee whose voice is heard most loudly when he is in trouble seems to be the same employee who isn't around when the PDA cards are being signed. This is an opportunity for the "silent majority" to contact t h # State Senators and Assemblymen and urge them to vote in favor of the Flynn-Laverne Bill. IN A STATE such as New York, which has for many decades been in the forefront of pro-labor legislation, and where under the State Labor Relations Law, union membership may be required as a condition of getting a job in the first instance with a private employer, it seems unreal that a union in the public sector is discriminated against by the lawmakers. Union security provisions in private sector labor agreements have probably done more to stabilize lat)or a ^ management relationships than any other single factor. They will undoubtedly have the same effect in the public sector.

The meeting, called by Conference president Nicholas Puzziferrl, enabled delegates to question fieldman Thomas Brand on the membership drive and Ter Bush and Powell representative Ronald Lacey on the insurance. Some answers to questions not previously reported on by The Leader were: JUDY VAN NESS JOHN MAURO • Employees living on institution grounds are eligible for tenants insurance. • The insurance rate is guaranteed for one year, and the policy issuance is guaranteed for two years. • Members of a given family are Insured without additional premiums, except for males under 25 years of age, for whom the rate is higher. (If an under-25 male outside the family should sometime drive the auto, this would not affect the rate, however.) • Questions in the Southern area may be answered toll-free by dialing (800) 3429870. ALICE NELSON GEORGE CELDENTANO Fieldman Thomas Brand, who gave a preview of Albert Lowry makes a point during meeting, with upcoming membership drive, talks things over Jamea Lehocky, new president at Raniapo, lendwith Bill Lawrence of the DOT at Poughkeepaie, ing an attentive ear. 0
