Vote On Pact
(PYom Leader Correspondent)
MINEOLA — F i n a l a r r a n g e m e n t s have been made
f o r t h e r a t i f i c a t i o n vote on
t h e c o n t r a c t s e t t l e m e n t for
the Nassau chapter, Civil Service Employees Assn., Feb. 28.
The pact, which provides pay
and benefit gains of almost 25
percent for most employees, will
go to the membership for votingmachine balloting at 14 locations
from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Chapter officials have called
on CSEA members to be sure to
vote and will circularize county
installations with reminder notices.
The contract preserves the incremants due to 70 percent of
the members under the graded
salary plan in addition to bringing two successive across-theboard pay boosts of 5 percent
each.
Some Examples
Examples of the new money
payable to employees were given
last week in a circular issued
by the chapter. Employees in step
3 of grade 4, including custodial
worker I, cashier I and clerkstenographer I titles, will receive
an additional $656 this year.
Those in step 3 of grade 7, including maintenance mechanic
I, lifeguard II and drug abuse
technician I titles, will receive
$812 in new money this year.
Step 3, grade 10, including
such as maintenance head painter, legal stenographer III and
caseworker I titles, will see an
extra $1,030 under the contract.
All would be in line for slightly greater pay boosts next year.
A more complete listing of examples appears in the chart accompanying this story.

Assemblyman S a m u e l
D.
Wright (D.-Brooklyn), chairman
of the Black and Puerto Rican
Caucus, said that "nearly half of
all new employees entering public employ are from minority
groups. The State Pension Commission, therefore, is telling
them that they will receive less

fellow employee who is already
on the job."

57% Less For Newcomers
John DeLury, president of the
Uniformed Sanitationmen's Assn.
and chairman of the 16-union
coalition formed to oppose the
pension proposals, said that sanitationmen hired after July 1
would get a pension of 57 percent
less than a sanitationman hired
before that date if the recommendations are made into law by
the State Legislature. The calculations were based on retirement at age 55 after 20 years'
sei-vice. He said that a transit
•worker would get 54 percent less,
a policeman 38 percent less, a
New York City teacher 58 percent less, a state teacher 41 percent less and a state hospital
worker 36 percent less than their
counterparts hired before July 1.
Jack Bigel, consultant to the
union coalition, accused New
York City of poor management
of its pension assets. He also said
that the Kinzel report contained
"not one line on the funding of
pensions" to support its warning
that the city would go bankrupt
if present pension benefits continued. He said that pensions
have constituted between approximately 6 and 10 percent of
total city budgets in the last
10 years, and that pension costs
were "decreasing in the last 20
years."
"This is rank discrimination
against all new employees," DeLury said.
Assemblyman Wright added
that he does not "appear here
merely as a m'inority representative—but on behalf of all working people." The current benefits
should be continued for all future public employees, he said,
and pledged "to do -my utmost
to defeat this ominous bill."
A public hearing on the proposed new pension law will be
held in Albany on March 1. In
addition to Governor Rockefeller, top state officials who have
endorsed the proposal are Lieut.
Gov. Malcolm Wilson and Comptroller Arthur Levitt.

C h a r g e M o n r o e C o u n t y ' s Proposal
O n Parking Fee Is U n f a i r Practice
(From Leader Correspondent)
ROCHESTER — A proposal to charge for parking at Monroe County's Community
Hospital, health and social services complex in Rochester, has rankled some county
employees.
So much so, in fact, that the Monroe County chapter of the Civil Service Employees
Assn. has filed an unfair labor
practice charge against the county and its manager, Lucien A.
Morin.
The charge, filed in Albany»
says the county failed to "bargain in good faith" during negotiations that began in April on
a 1973-74 contract for county
employees.
The' charge says the county
failed to inform CSEA that it
was implementing paid parking
at the health-social services complex.
County employees are probably
the biggest users of the large
parking lots there, according to

a county spokesman.
Full plans on the parking proposal will be unveiled in a few
weeks, he said. But it's expected
that employees will be charged
$10 a month for parkingf.
CSEA has demanded free parking for county employees in the
downtown area.
Negotiations
were completed in November and
a contract signed, but that demand was not met.
"During the course of negotiations on this demand, the county failed to disclose any plans
to institute paid parking for
county employees outside of the
downtown area," Martin Koenig,
president of the Monroe County
chapter, says.
In December, he says, CSEA
was told that everyone, including
county employees, would have to
pay for parking at the complex.
County Manager Morin said
the parking matter could not be
brought up with county employees "until it was ready." He says
improvements to the parking lots
(lighting, more orderly parking,
etc.) are "necessary."
Morin said he realizes that the
matter is of great importance
and concern to employees and
the CSEA.

Suit Filed To Protect
C o m m u n i t y Store Services
A i d e s Pension Benefits
M
(Special to The Leader)
ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has filed
a lawsuit against the New York State Retirement System
"to protect the retirement benefits of the employees of the
Bureau of Community Store Services," a division of the
state Department o f . Mental
O
Hygiene.
CSEA, under its legal assistance program, will represent
Hazel Burlinson, a recent retiree
from the Community Store of
the Rome State School. Ms. Burlinson had worked for the Community Store since 1947 and has
been a member of the State Retirement System since that date.
According to a spokesman for
CSEA, Ms. Burlinson inquired
about her retirement benefits in
December 1971, and received all
the necessary information. She
retired as of Jan. 19, 1973, and
on February 1, 1973, she received
two letters from the State Employee Retirement System. One
informed her that "It has been
determined
that
Community
Store employees may not be
granted service credit subsequent
to 8/10/71, nor may a benefit
earned subsequent to that date
be used in the computation of a
(retirement) benefit."
"The second letter was a projection- of retirement benefits
under various options," said the
CSEA spokesman, "and all were
substantially reduced from the
projections received when she
had first applied.
Could Lose $1,000
"This action of the Retirement
System denies Ms. Burlinson 17
months of service toward her retirement allowances," continued
the spokesman, "and denies her
the use of her salary rate for the
past three years in computing
her final average salary for the
purposes of determining her pension — a difference that could
cost Ms. Burlinson nearly $1,000
per year."
While Ms. Burlinson's husband, a supervisor for the Syracuse Division of the New York
State Thruway, feels that this
action by the State is a "swindle
of the lowest sort" and "not fair
at all" in denying his wife the
use of some 17 months of employment in computing her retirement credits, CSEA counsel
Pass y o u r c o p y o f

Chapter president Irving Flaumenbaum accompanied
unit
president Ronnie Harris in private talks that brought about tli©
resumption of negotiations.
Earlier, Flaumenbaum
had
pledged to take the district to
court and before the Public employees Relations Board on u a fair-labor-practices' charges. The
Board had withheld increments
for employees while talks dragged on since last March, and had
attempted to impose a faqt-finder's recommendation of a 3 percent pay adjustment.
Members, reinforced by CSEA
members of other school districts,
picketed while the leaders bargained.
Flaumenbaum, who scored the
tfact-finder" for "not doing his
homework,"
announced
later
that talks based on a more realistic settlement had been promr
ised.
ORANGE INSTALLATION »
Cullagher, statewide treasurer of the Civil Service Employees Assn., leads new officers of,the Orange County chapter in taking the oath of office. From right
are president Anne Butler, first vice-president Terry Tomaszewski, secretary William E. Duggan, treasurer Warren Cuddeback, delegate Mary Perna and Board representative Joseph DeVita. Missing from the
picture are vice-presidents Keii Lybolt and Kay Cay ton and delegates Frank English, Regiiui Ma jka and
Robert Fernandez. The installation was held earlier this month at the Casa Fiesta fiestaurant iu Middletown.
Harold G. Beyer, Jr. says that it
is "a direct violation of the State
Constitution,"
which
states:
"After July 1, 1940, membership
in any pension or retirement
system of the State or of a civil
division thereof shall be a contractual relationship, the benefits of which shall not be diminished or impaired."
Two-Year Pact
For Niagara
(From Leader Correspondent)
LCKJKPORT — A two-year
contract providing an average $790 wage hike has been
ratified by the Niagara County chapter of the Civil Service
Employees Assn.
William M. Doyle, chapter
president, reported the contract
was approved by a 2-1 margin by
400 members who took part.
The contract calls for an average wage increase of $390 the
first year and $400 the second.
County white-collar workers now
earn between $5,000 and $8,000
in the lower levels and between
$10,000 to $15,000 in the supervisory ratings.
The agreement, replacing one
that expired Dec. 31, 1972, also

Seek Improved
Cleanliness In
OVR Facilities
The Civil Service Employees Assn. unit of the New
York City Office of Vocational Rehabilitation
has
filed a grievance with its local office concerning the unsanitary conditions of the
rest rooms.
According to OVR employees,
complaints have been given to
the administration for "the past
10 years" concerning "vermine,
mice, cockroaches and the lack of
cleanliness in the toilets." Upon
their last registered complaint,
action was taken whereby an exterminator now comes once a
month. Toilets were cleaned
thoroughly only once.
Employees feel that this is
"only temporary"
because
"thousands of
people
come
through every week."
"The administration isn't paying enough for complete service,"
said an employee of the OVR office at 225 Park Avenue South,
Manhattan. "There is a definite
dereliction of duty here."
An official grievance will be
initiated Feb. 20 by employees
against Louis Salzman, area director of OVR.
If this attempt fails, the grievance will be filed against John
Wheeler, director of managememt
services for OVR iu Albany.

SCHENECTADY, NEW YORK 12301
two of his boys from 272 E ^ i n e
who did a bang up Job at a fire
Jan. 26th at 8:22 a.m. Upon arrival at 3402 Union Street in
Flushing (Box 4506), the usual
screaming
about
kids
being
trapped was going on. Fire was
belching from two windows and
there was no time to even entertain doubt about kids in danger (I have never seen a firefighter yet who had a second
thought
about
his
personal
safety where kids in danger were
concerned) so up they went, and
with the permission of their officer, they darted into the a p a r t ment, went past two rooms full
of fire, and made the necessary
search. Sure enough, there were
two kids whom they grabbed,
covered with their coats and retraced their steps to the safety
of the lower hall-way where they
went to work with mouth-tomouth. The kids were in bad
shape and remained in intensive
care for five days. Thanks to
Good Guy Chief Finnerty, the
proper people were notified and
the media got hold of the story
and gave it the full treatment.
The names of the men: Remember them well . . . they deserve
it: Fireman Joseph Lonegro,
JFireman Frank Murphy and
Captain John Werner. Terrific!
When you talk about men who
are quick thinkers, you would
have to travel a long way to
come up with a bunch of guys
who think faster than the average firefighters. So it was t h a t
my friend, John Kryger, sends
me a report of a real slick job
pulled off by 110 Truck in a
housing project at 234 Sands St.,
Brooklyn (Box 407 Brooklyn).
Seems t h a t the fire was in an
a p a r t m e n t on the 14th floor and
was so intense t h a t it drove a
little girl, Kim, out onto a window ledge. There was only one
way out for her and that was
down until 110 Truck arrived
under the command of Lieutena n t William Erhard who made
a quick sizeup and knew the
aerial would not reach. He ordered Fireman Alfred Samuelson
and Fireman John Donahue to
the roof with a rope where they
were joined by Fireman Harold
Dahlman, detailed from Engine
226. By this time little Kim's
father also was out on the ledge.
The good lieutenant, using the
old "beaneroo." had sneaked a
quick look a t the layout of the

roof. After lowering Fireman Al-"
fred Samuelaon over on a bowline and a bight, and while
shouting words of encouragement to the two trapped victims,
they quickly went to the fire
floor and entered the adjoining
apartment. Meanwhile Samuelson ushered the two victims and
made a quick search finding a n other little child under a bed.
Now he had three victims to look
out for. He knew from previous
experience what was about to
happen. In two shakes of a
lamb's tail and faster than you
could say the first part of a Hail
Mary, crash went a hole in the
wall and in came the three rescuers to help Samuelson get the
three victims to safety.
It seems that that area is
loaded with low and middle income housing and because of the
conditions which prevail on the
upper floors water-wise (stolen
fittings, broken valves, missing
wheels and burned hose on house
lines . . .
you know
the
"schmear" . . . it's the same
wherever you go in projects in
the city today) the same sort of
rescue has been pulled off several
times before by 110 Truck and
Rescue two, working as a team.
Incidentally, after the death of
a firefighter in Harlem some
years ago (Fireman Julius Feldman of Ladder 43) some of the
brothers, shaken up because of
the fact that he had to jump for
his life with no way to help him,
went to an abandoned building
and with a stop watch on Mike
Donahue (founder of the Emerald Society) took a Halligan and
bashed their way into the adjoining apartment in 80 seconds. It's
a good thing to remember . . .
most often the next apartment
is clear as a bell and could save
your life. Meanwhile congratulations 110! See you medal day

Investigation Needed
L
AST week, this newspaper learned that a New York
State employee working in the new World Trade Cen.ter found out there was a fire in the building only because
he happened to look out of his window and saw fire trucks
below. There was no alarm bell or telephone available to
alert him that there was a blaze in the building.
This is one of many reports we are cofitihually receiving
on safety conditions—particularly in the area of fire controls—from State workers already assigned to work in the
mammoth structures. Stories of employees finding their
way out of the twin towers by going down smoke-filled
staircases are legion.
What is baffling is that—to date—the State Administration has made no specific response to these incidents,
despite the fact that leaders of New York City's fire organizations termed the Trade Center a fire hazard before
the first employee moved in.
This would be enough for either the state or the federal government to step in immediately and enforce needed
safeguards if the situation existed in a privately owned
building, no matter what the cost.
This problem deserves immediate attention ..from both
the state and federal governments. There is" no excuse for
endangering human life when so many warnings have now
been sounded.
Legislated Racism
LACK and Puerto Rican members of the State Legislature last week charged that proposals for a uniformed pension plan for the state and its political subdivisions would, in a very short time, create tremendous
racial problems in public employment.
B
.These legislators argued that a high portion of new
public employees—now and in the future—are coming from
ethnic minority groups and these new workers would
quickly discern that they are being discriminated against
in terms of pension benefits. This is because they failed
to be hired in time to enjoy greater benefits being received
by fellow employees who perform the same tasks but were
on the job longer.
This argument dovetails with our warnings of the last
two weeks that a single, lesser pension plan would bring
chaos in public employment when—and if—it is put into
effect.
ypting Right Of. Non-Members
Questions
_
and
Answers
For that reason, every member of the Assembly and
the Senate must be aware that a simplification of pension
plans is no simple matter. To blindly endorse,a bill that
would create predictable chaos would be the worst of legislative irresponsibility. It would, in fact, be an act to
legislate racism.

Michael Maye, president of -the

pleaded for "more and better
protection for the disadvantaged
neighborhoods of New York" at a
public hearing last week, but
said he would not permit the
"downgrading of our job" to recruit more members of the Fire
Dept.
Stating that the force was
"undermanned and overworlced"
at a public hearing of the New
York City Charter Revision Committee. Maye said that to "circumvent Civil Service Requirements . . . is not answer to
recruiting members of various
minority groups."
"To permit this, for whatever
reason, would jeopardize not only
the lives and safety of all professional firefighters but the
people of this city." he said.
"Downgrading our job—or its
qualifications, tests and training
—is not the answer to recruiting
-members of various minority
groups. We would welcome any
qualified individuals with open
arms. Remember, you cannot see
the color of a man's skin in the
smoke and murk of a roaring fire
—but you can feel the security
of knowing the man behind you
is well qualified and well
trained."

The serious tone of the meeting had been set by Conference
president Koch when he called
for vigorous resistance to the
Kinzel Commission's proposed
pension program. Koch sounded
the theme when he warned: "We
cannot accept this report." He
called
for
concerted
action
among the Conference's 50,000
members, and noted that the
statewide CSEA was joining
other public employee unions in
a massive alliance to defend
"what we have earned."
Koch also briefed the delegates
on the financial crisis facing
CSEA because of the temporary
suspension of the dues check-off
and the problems of implementing the restructuring of the regional organization.

In Restructuring
Participates
Seminar
LIVERPOOL—Central Conference of the Civil Service Employees
Assn. devoted a good portion of its February meeting to a seminar
on restructuring of the statewide organization.
As part of restructuring, the six conferences will become regions
with regionwide election of officers. Delegates heard a report from
nominations chairman Gerald Brown postponing election plans until
restructuring phases have been coordinated at the delegates meetings
in February and March. Following through on restructuring changes
in the statewide organization, the Conference voted approval of
modeling the Conference set-up to include an executive vice-president and to provide specific vice-presidents for the counties.
Another Conference resolution was passed authorizing Homer
Folks chapter president Irene Carr, Central Conference president
Floyd Peashey, together with statewide CSEA president Theodore
C. Wenzl, to meet with Department of Health officials to work out
a program of aid for employees of Homer Folks Hospital, which the
State has slated for phasing out over the next few months.
At the Saturday evening banquet, host Syracuse chapter president Richard Cleary presented a plaque to restructuring committee
chairman A. Victor Costa for the work the committee has performed
over the past two years. Costa then gave the plaque over to Dr. Wenzl.

Floyd Peashey, to his right, are
joined by a number of chapter and unit
presidents.

Q. WHOM SHALL I CONTACT IP
IF I HAVE ANY QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE AMOUNT PAID ON
A GHI DENTAL CLAIM?
as a Dental
GROUP
Service
HEALTH
to Readers
INCORPORATED
A. You should contact your business or personnel office. If you wish
to speak directly to a representative
of GHI call your nearest GHI office
(see inside back cover of your booklet, "Dental Insurance For You and
Your Dependents" for location and
telephone numbers).
Q. WHOM SHOULD MY PARTICIPATING DENTIST CONTACT IF
HE HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT GHI
DENTAL'S SCHEDULE OF ALLOWANCE FOR A PARTICULAR SERVICE?
A. The Participating Dentist may
telephone, toll free, the GHI Dental
office nearest him. The regional representative will obtain the inform,ation from our Professional Relations Department.
Q. CAN YOU HAVE DENTAL
CLAIMS REVIEWED?
A. Yes. If after checking the
booklet, "Dental Insurance For You
and Your Dependents" and consulting your business or personnel office you feel that GHI Dental has
miscalculated the payment due you,
you may call or write the nearest
GHI Dental office. Be sure to give
the enrollee's certificate number
(Social Security number), full name,
address, group number and agency
number, patient's name, the dates
of service, the name of dentist and
any claim number or qheck number
which are known.
Q. IF MY HUSBAND AND I,
BOTH EMPLOYED BY NEW YORK
STATE ARE ENROLLED UNDER
HIS FAMILY CONTRACT. SHOULD
HAPPEN TO FILE DIFFERENT
Editor's Nol»; Mr. Iiaacs taunol aenpt
ttltpboHt
quettious,
of the
« 'fcwlt
* J E A 1 > B H ,
CLAIMS AT THE SAME TIME, WILL
ANY DELAY OR CONFUSION RESULT?
A. No, not if you both use the
certificate number (Social Security
number) of the contract holder.
However, if the Social Security
number you use is that of the dependent, then undoubtedly you will
experience delay and run the risk
of a double deduction being applied
to your claim.
Q. HOW DO YOU PAY BENEFITS
FOR ORTHODONTIC SERVICES
UNDER MY NEW YORK STATE
DENTAL INSURANCE PLAN?
A. GHI Dental pays for Orthodontics for eligible dependent children
under age 19 when performed by
qualified specialists and when the
condition of the teeth warrants such
treatment.
The dentist's charge or billing
have no bearing on the amounts
payable under your GHI Dental Plan.
When the initial Orthodontic Appliance is inserted, the Value for Deductible is $100. Subsequent visits
to the Orthodontist's Office for active treatment have a $30 Value
for Deductible for each visit with
a limitation of 20 months.
Following this the amount of $15
may be allowed for passive treatment for each six months of treatment with a maximum of 18 months
of passive treatment. The maximum
GHI Dental Value for Deductible for
all Orthodontic services is $745.
When you have satisfied the annual
deductible, any of the above-mentioned services for Orthodontia are
reimbursable at 50% of the Value
for Deductible assigned.

Correction Capts
Profife
J e r o m e Belson — H i s
Professional Passions
His H u m a n i t a r i a n i s m
From a strategically centered office at the tip of Manhattan, Jerome Belson oversees his life's two professional
passions. One is Belson, Connolly & Belson, his law Arm
that specializes in labor and in real estate law. The other
is Apartment Development and
Management,
Inc.
(ADAM),
which has participated in the
development, rental,. sales and
management of 27,000 apartments whose construction costs
amount to approximately $2 billion.
A World War II Air Corps veteran and a graduate .in 1948 of
St.
John's
University
Law
School, Belson was an Assistant
Corporation Counsel, when he
was requested to create large
scale non-profit housing developments for the Amalgamated
Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen. The first of these developments, Harry Silver Cooperative
Apartments in Brooklyn, i'ecently
celebrated its 20 th anniversary.
The record of those 20 years
showed only one day of income
missed of 2,095,100 rental days,
a vacancy factor that has helped
maintain low carrying charges.
All the housing projects developed and managed by ADAM
are guided by Belson's philosophy that tenants no longer accept the limitation of an owner's
responsibility to supplying janitorial services. "The owner,"
Belson says, "by reason of his
having built the apai^tment
house in that particular location,
does and is required to accept
the responsibility of participating with the residents of the development in applying himself
to the problems of the community, including security, police,
garbage removal, street lighting
and other off-site considerations."
Minorities Benefit
In line with that philosophy
ADAM specifically undertakes to
fill its personnel, supply, and
equipment needs from project
residents and commercial tenants and from the neighboring
area. As a result of this policy
virtually all of its employees are
black, Puerto Rican, or of other
minorities, in job classifications
Police
with salary ranges from $7,500 to
$15,000. This philosophy is consistent with the approach taken
by the State Urban Development
Corporation, as spelled out by its
president, Edward J. Logue."
"The principal aims of U.D.C.,"
Logue says, "are to provide.housing, jobs, and community facilities, with local partners—such
as municipalities or nonprofit
groups."
The confluence of these philosophical views has inevitably
brought U.D.C. and ADAM together, with the result that
ADAM has been invited to participate in the development of
a number of UD.C. projects, including Twin Parks in the
Bronx, Harlem River Park, and
the Welfare Island development.
U.D.C. has adopted t^e long
standing practice of providing
each prospective tenant or cooperative purchaser with an information bulletin which, among
other things, fully details financing and operating costs so that
the prospective tenant or purchaser is fully informed about
the reasonableness about rentals
or carrying charges.
In addition to his interest in
housing here, Belson has served
as the Director of Missions to
Colombia, Brazil, Guatemala and
Mexico to advise leaders of trade
unions to develop and administer
cooperative Housing projects in
those countries.

Fire Hazards Hot
Metro Conf Topic
Fire hazards facitig State employees being transferred
to work sites in the new World Trade Center in Manhattan
was again the hottest topic of debate at a Feb. 10 meeting
of the Metropolitan .Conference of the Civil Service Employees Assn.
Jack Weisz, Conference president, charged that "the State is
tolerating lack of safety features which if found in a private
es
building would not be tolerated
"73
for a .second."

Several delegates attending the
H
session already have experienced
fiS^ fire conditions while at work in
the • new, mammoth structure.
One aide reported that a man
was working on the 24th floor of
the building without a fire alann
on the floor, no telephone and no
other means of being warned
there was a fire in the building.
u
cn
"The only way he knew there
U
was a blaze was because he just
>
happened to look out the winNM
dow," the delegate said.
u
Weisz said the Conference was .
pushing its demand for a Federal ;
investigation of safety conditions
in the Trade Center.
Another topic for debate was
the status of current negotiations with the State Administration for employees of the four
major bargaining units CSEA
represents.
While it was recognized that a
news blackout on negotiations
was in effect, one delegate declared that a resolution passed at
the last general delegates' meeting in Rochester mandated the
negotiating teams to give a report to the delegates by Feb. 28
to prepare them for any action
that might be needed at the
i
a
i
March delegates' meeting, to be
held in New York City.
Another item of business was
the a n n u a l
Tri-Conference
Workshop sponsored by the
Metro, Southern and Long Island Conferences. Nicholas Puzzaferri. South Conference president, who was a guest at the
meeting, said that as soon as a
few minor details were woike^l
out the date and place for the
session would be announced.
