V TOWN & iCOUNTY By JOSEPH LAZARONY, Chairmon CSEA County Executive Committee The Importance Of Committees ONE OF THE ways and means used to conduct the business of our organization is the committee. Our constitution provides for standing committees in many areas and provides for appointment of special committees as needed. THE POLITICAL sub-divisions have used this provision on many occasions. With the support and guidance of our president, Theodorfe C. Wenzl, a county problems committee functioned effectively in 1970 and 1971. This committee played a significant role in underlining the need for more educational symposia on a variety of subjects. Last year's negotiations seminars were one result of this role. TWO NEW COMMITTEES, however, may well have opened up "new territory" in committee concepts. AS A RESULT of the installation of the "new delivery system" in Social Services departments throughout New York State, many problems arose. To describe and to offer solutions to these problems, a geographically based committee of Social Service Dept. worlcers was formed. Called the "Ad hoc committee to study the new delivery system," it has been very active and tremendously effective in several areas. DESCRIBING THE problem — One of the most difficult areas for problem solving is always describing what the problem really is. By consulting the very people involved, much progress was made in this area. DEVELOPING A position — Many governmental people were anxious to hear how workers were faring under this system. This ad hoc committee was able to prepare statements and deliver them to the people who needed to know. OFFERING SOLUTIONS — Who better to do so? Many times problems are solved away from the action with disastrous results. This committee has successfully offered many solutions to administrators and legislators throughout the state. DEVELOPED AN "Esprit de Corps" — These committee members, working together to solve common problems have found an avenue to mix their union activities and professional roles. Nothing can offer more good to CSEA than an awareness by all members that there is a place to take their particular problems; a place filled with fellow workers both in spirit and in area of Interest. SOMETIME LATER, as a reaction to legislation changing the administrative relationships in Probation Departments, a similar committee made up of probation officers was formed. While not yet ready for its definitive reports, early returns indicate that many of the same benefits will accrue here! IT IS CERTAINLY food for thought to consider the development of other such committees as the need arises. The concept of committees based on job areas may be tailormade for CSEA!

Let me count the ways . . said X A the poetess. And she did. "How do we love thee? We forget!" New York State Is telling its employees. But maybe we can count some ways a little respect and good faith can be shown to State workers. First, put the same ingenuity and effort into finding monies for a fair pay raise that is being put into finding some $33,000,000 for private schools. Certainly, government owes as much concern to its work force as it does to Its students. Second, cut down on road and building construction and take care of human, and humane, priorities. People are still more important than steel and concrete. Third, do unto others as you would have others do unto you. Members of the Legislature have never been loath to grant themselves the kind of pay increases, expense accounts and pensions that drow public wrath, and which was unfortunately and wrongly placed on ordinary rank-and-file workers. Just give these workers part of the break y'ou gave yourselves. L Important Victory UBLIC employees from New York City to Buffalo will be happy to learn that increments resulting from graded salary plans will not be used by the Federal Pay Board in figuring whether or not pay pacts exceed U.S. guidelines^ This extremely important decision came about as the result of the contesting of a new contract negotiated between Nassau chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. and Nassau County. The pact's enactment was threatened by a preliminary decision that declared the five percent pay raise won for all employees exceeded Pay Board raise limits when Increment monies were added. Irving Flaumenbaum, president of the Nassau chapter, promptly pointed out tha inequities of the Federal Board's thinking when he demonstrated that 1) not all employees got increments each year and 2) the increments were a longstanding condition of employment in the public sector. The Pay Board ruling affects all public employees in graded salary plans and we salute the Nassau CSEA for its alertness and success. P Questions and Answers Q.

The decision was expected to save the belt-tightening board $120,000 in next year's operating budget. . .

ON FEBRUARY 3, 1972, President Nixon, while addressing the nation on national television somewhat surprised his listeners by saying, "Being silent to the critics of this administration and not answering their charges is no longer the answer." Then he went on to say, in more lengthy terms than space allows here, that he would be silent no longer because there was more at stake than an election or a political party—the future of the United States of America. UNDERMINING EVERY EFFORT of leadership to do its job serves no one but the enemies of our country. If the statement sounded hard at the time, it was perhaps no more so than the Holy Father in Rome defending the church from critics within its own walls. Today, all leadership is scrutinized closely, be it in politics, religion or organized labor. PERHAPS MADAME CHENNAULT, widow of one of the great World War II heroes. General Chennault of the Flying Tigers, summed it up well by her observation that we live In a time of instant coffee, instant TV and instant spray and that we have become so accustomed to this that, unless leadership provides instant solutions, then they are not doing their job, even though they may not be the cause of a problem but are nevertheless charged with it by virtue of command. THE POINT IS THAT to let a few jump up and down NIAGARA FALLS — For a and holler and scream, defy or disrupt organizations, may change, public employees be entertaining to some and tolerable to others but union is the canoe that carries us all through the job. It is the home, have received a letter of praise—really not so rare— the shelter and the safeguard of every blueshirt and family instead of t h e better-publicized of anyone in a municipal labor union. In truth it is all we letters of c o m p r i n t . Following Is have and every benefit we gain is because of it. a letter from' a n u n e m p l o y e d EVERY MAN HAS A RIGHT to speak against leadership person w i i t t e n in praise of public and seek to change it—but no man has the right to en- e m p l o y e e s In t h e S t a t e U n e m danger any union. For firefighters are all tradesmen. It is p l o y m e n t B u r e a u a t N i a g a r a our lot, our calling. No man will make a fortune as a fire- Falls. fighter, but as union men, arm in arm with our brothers, we "As o n e of t h e m a n y u n e m can share a better life for ourselves and our families and ployed in t h e Niagara Falls D i s trict. I would like to take this those who follow us. TIMES ARE SUCH that emotional and controversial time to tell you h o w I f e e l about things are as easy to come by as sand on the beach.

A f t e r many weeks o f talks devoted t o proposals for t h e expansion of subscriber benefits and other program developments, H I P and its affiliated medical groups signed a Medical G r o u p Agreement which marks a new era in the delivery of comprehensive health services through our prepaid group practice plan. A s part of t h e reorganization of H I P , expanded subscriber benefits are n o w available to T h you. e following expanded benefits are immediately available t o y o u : CHOICE OF M E D I C A L GROUP. You may now choose any medical group in the HIP system. It is no longer necessary for you to select a medical group that only serves your area of residence. This is a greatly expanded benefit because it makes it possible for members of HIP to select a medical group near their home, place of employment, or any other area of the city that is convenient. However, unless a member resides in his medical group's service area, the medical group will not be , servrequired to provide home calls during normal business hours. During the evening hours, weekends, and holidays when the member's medical group is not open, s ice will be provided through the Emergency Service Program operated by HIP. Please note that, on request, members of a family unit may choose a medical group different from the one chosen by the subscriber. Ail requests for change of a medical group are to be referred to the HIP Registrar Department. EMERGENCY VISITS. A subscriber may, without referral, elect to seek an emergency visit from any HIP medical group for treatment of illness or accident. SECOND SPECIALIST OPINION. This new benefit provides for a second opinion specialist consultation from an HIP medical group other than one's own medical group. The consultation will be arranged by the medical group at the request of the subscriber. L A B O R A T O R Y PROCEDURES. Laboratory procedures, especially fasting blood workups, which are ordered by the member's medical group of record, may be arranged at any HIP group. This important benefit makes it possible for a subscriber to select a group center that is convenient and readily accessible when tests are required. The Subscriber Service Department of HIP will answer any questions you may have in regard to the expanded benefits. Sincerely yours.
