Willowbrook Local
Seeks Judge's Help
To Mediate Dispute
STATEN ISLAND—Armed with a strike authorization,
leaders of Willowbrook Developmental Center local 429 of
the Civil Service Employees Assn., are hoping to meet this
week with a Federal Court judge to ask him to mediate the
Felton King, president of the Willowbrook Developmental Center Local of the Civil Service Employees Assn., addressed his membership at a series of meetings last Tuesday and was voted
the authority to take whatever means necessary, including a strike, to resolve the issue of
threatened layoffs at the Staten Island Institution.
W i l l Y o u G e t 4% P a y Hike?
By MARVIN BAXLEY
As a state employee,
you expect a 4 percent
boost next month? Did
receive last month the
can
pay
you
ret-
roactive 5 percent pay Increase?
Who is eligible for the 5 percent
salary hike next April?
Your answers and our explanations may be both Yes and No,
depending on whether we are
discussing realities or legalities.
We will try to explain here
how the system is actually operating at the present time. It
is possible that through legal
maneuvers by the Civil Service
Employees Assn. these answers
may in time be revised to your
advantage.
To begin with, you must have
been on the payroll as of March
31 this year to have been eligible
for the retroactive 5 percent increase that showed up in jtnost
state workers' paychecks last
month.
The same is true in determining eUgibilty for the October
round of the three-step pay
package approved by union members last spring.
If employment began on April
1, or some time after, you do

not participate in either of the
pay increases, although all employees,
including
new-hires
right up to next March 31, will
gain a 5 percent increase April
1. 1978.
Since this contract is an extension of the existing agreement
between the CSEA and the State,
increments for this year were
guaranteed, and should have already been received by all those
workers whose employment anniversaries made them eligible
this year.
When the October 4 percent
is added to the paychecks, it
will be based on the existing salary schedule for the job as of
March 31, 1977, not on the actual
current personal salary. This
year's increment, however, is included when the percentage is
figured.
Keep in mind, now, that we
are
now
discussing
"salary
schedule" and "personal salary."
They mean different things, and
are important in determining the
differences in increases to be realized when the final 5 percent
increase is given to ALL current
state employees, including those
who have not received any of the
first 9 percent this year.
Next April 1, employees prior
to last March 31 will get an
additional 5 percent increase
based on their current personal
salary (including next year's increment for those who are eligible).
This is not the same 5 percent
that new-hires between April 1,
1977, and March 31, 1978, will receive, since their increase will be
based on the standard salary
schedule. Once they receive the
increase, though, these people,
too, will have a personal salary
schedule. It will be less, however,
thaiv that of older employees.
but more than that of people
hired after next April 1.
Putting it a different way, for
pre-March 31, 1977, employees,
the final pay raise next April 1,
1978, will be based on the person's personal salary, which is
the job schedule (100 percent)
plus this year's two pay raises
(5 percent and 4 percent). Thus,
it can be stated as 5 percent of
109 percent and more for those

union's differences with United
Cerebral Palsy and the Department of Mental Hygiene.
Judge John R. Bartels is expected to hear charges from the
CSEA that the UCP takeover of
seven buildings at Willowbrook
will deprive 800 employees of
their civil service status and
will cause large-scale layoffs.
The CSEA will also be represented at this week's meeting by
leaders of CSEA Region n , the
state organization and union
counsel James Featherstonhaugh.
Privately, CSEA officials expressed hope that Judge Bartels
will either mediate the issues or
recommend paths of possible legal
remedy to avoid a confrontation
between the union and the Department of Mental Hygiene.
Hope that the Judge may have
a solution to the Willowbrook
crisis was buoyed by a Sept. 7
ruling by Judge Bartels' Federal
District Court, which indicated
that the CSEA would bring suit
against the Department of Mental Hygiene in state court to
determine whether the proposed
UCP contract would violate any
employee rights at Willowbrook.
The United States District
Court for the Eastern District Is
located in Brooklyn and has jurisdiction over the April 1975 consent agreement between the Department of Mental Hygiene and
the parents of Willowbrook residents. Also since the UCP takeover agreement was signed on
March 10 in his court, Judge
Bartels has continued to monitor conditions at Willowbrook
through the Willowbrook Review
Board. The Judge has the power
to order the State to change the
agreement with UCP, legal observers say.
News of the proposed meeting
came after two weeks of anger
and frustration that boiled over
last Tuesday when a shouting,
foot-stomping crowd of Willowbrook CSEA members voted overwhelmingly to give Local president Felton King, authorizationto take any action up to and
including a strike to resolve the
situation at Willowbrook.
The membership meetings were
held last Tuesday at the Plaza

CSEA FIGHTS TO SAVE HEALTH CENTER AND JOBS
Civil Service Employees Assn., Local 317, members took to the sidewalks recently in an attempt
to save their Jobs at the Syracuse Neighborhood Health Center. Closing the center would adversely
affect health care of the city's low income resl dents. Marching in front of the new federal building in Syracuse, employees sought support for the federally-funded, state-administered center.
Shortly afterwards state officials said the center's closing was not related to union contract problems, but to Medicaid billing difficulties and the transfer of administration to a nonprofit group.
Among those on the picket line were Emma McKeniie, Local 317 presidnet, and James Moore,
Region V president. Talks broke down last Thursday when a union offer was rejected. Extensive layoffs are expected this week with final closing on Sept. 30.

Casino, Staten ^Island, at three
times Auringr the day. to accommodate..workers on all shifts.
The . vote, . came despite the
warnings of Barton Brier, Region n field representative, who
explained that under the Taylor. Law It was Illegal to strike.
He also elaborated on the possible penalties for workers.
"What's the difference. The
way it is now, either we get laid
off by UCP or fired for strik-
ing," a CSEA member yelled
from the crowd. The audience
exploded Into cheers and voted
the strike authorization.
CSEA state officials commented publicly after the vote that
they had cautioned the Local that
Research Asst. Is First Woman
Region I V Staff Professional
ALBANY—As a one-woman information service for the entire Capital Region IV of
the Civil Service Employees Assn., Barbara Falzano, research assistant, is the first woman
on the Region's professional staff.
In that capacity she is responsible for providing information about salaries, job
titles and fringe benefits for
the field representatives to use
in'aiding the union's members.
She is also called upon by members themselves who have questions regarding their jobs . or
their membership in the union.
She has recently become involved in an officers training
program. Prom the various packets of literature that come into
the office, she prepares a bimonthly ^news report on labor
and
economic
developments
across the nation, which keeps
the staff up to date on legislative changes and Blue Cross-Blue
Shield changes.
Ms. Falzano, who has worked
for the CSEA for three years, said
she likes the challenge.
"I've learned a lot about educational and municipal laws;
things that affect me personally," she said. "I'm busy constantly during the day and I
like that."
Some projects require her to
work one night a week or an
occasional weekend. "That doesn't make me too happy, but it's
part of the job," she said.
Being accepted by the male
staff was no problem. "I never
really worried about It; they
simply accepted me as a coworker and Included me In all
activities. No one was ever reluctant to enlist my help," she
stated.
Ms. Falzano came to the CSEA
as an account clerk in 1974 after
her graduation from Plattsburgh
State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in mathematics.
"I wanted to be a math teacher, but there were absolutely no
openings. I had worked for the
CSEA part-time during the summers, so I came back seeking
full-time work."
This spring she was promoted
to her present position.
"Im not a career person: I
eventually want to leave and
have a family. Anyway, this Is
the kind of work you can come
back to and, hopefully, that's
what I'll do," she said.
Ms. Falzano joins three other
professional women who are employed in other regions, according to Thomas Whitney, personnel director at the CSEA
headquarters in Albany. They are
field reps Adele West, Anne
Chandler and Mona Cappola, all
in the union's Metropolitan Region n .
Replace Region IV
Information Booth
ALBANY—"We never see the Civil Service Employees
Assn. officers of fieldmen" used to be a major complaint of
Capital Region CSEA members until a bulky 8-by-16-foot information booth, first displayed at the Saratoga Fair, appeared at various work locations
throughout the Region last year.
The brainchild
of
Daniel
Campbell, regional public relations director, and Jack Corcoran,
regional superlvsor, the booth
was recently replaced by a
smaller,
self-contained
unit,
bearing a red, white, and blue
CSEA emblem.
Scheduled for a three-day visit
at each work location in the Region within the next 43 weeks,

formation on local, regional or
statewide Issues or problems. The
representative will answer any
questions or will direct members
to the proper source for a response. In addition, the booth will
serve as a center for signing up
new members.
Mr. Campbell sees the booth
as a means to understand local
problems and t a "determine
membership support to evaluate
unrest. It will give the field representative an Identity; he will
readily be received as a service
agent in all work locations," he
explained.
Said Mr. Campbell of the original booth: "It ended the complaint about not seeing fieldmen
quickly; you coiildn't help but
see it."
The idea of a booth has been
well accepted, in general. "Members no longer hold back minor
questions which after a time
become major ones," Mr. Campbell said.
Though portable, the old booth
was difficult to move around and
set up. It had to be transported
In a special van and after a year
of use it badly needed repairs.
"We almost had to abandon the
program because of the inconvenience," Mr. Campbell said.
The new booth can be carried
in a car and can sit on a table
on the floor. The back section
contains slots for literature and
a fold-out tabletop.
Joseph McDermott, Capital Region president, said, "There can
be no argument at all over the
public relations effect of the
booth. We can now service all
counties, especially the outlying
ones which had previously been
Ignored."
The booth will be made available to unit or Local presidents
upon request.

a strike would be illegal and
that they could not condone it.
"But we will support the Local
in whatever way possible with
all the resources of the union,"
Mr. McGowan said.
Mr. King appeared at a press
conference a t the Staten Island
Holiday Inn last Wednesday, to
announce the results of Tuesday's
voting. Jabbing the air for emphasis he charged that "people who have been fired from
Willowbrook, drug addicts and
others who couldn't qualify for
Jobs with the. state are being
hired by UCP to fill positions
formerly occupied by
state
workers."
"UCP brought in solid food to
give to spastic patients We told
them that it was wrong but they
ignored us. When one patient
started to choke, a state worker
went over and extracted the food
from the patient's throat," Mr.
King told WNBC-TV News.
Many of the UCP professional
and para-professionals S p e a r e d
hesitanit and unsure at their
new jobs.
"I was a little nervous to start
here," said Michele Galfa, a UCP
nurse. "It's the first time I've
been a nurse and I want to do
a good job."
Robert Schonhorn, executive
director of UCP alledgedly told
an audience of 700 Federallyfunded UCP employees, "Now
you'll get the support you may
not have had up to now. I realize that you've been working
under conditions that were difficult for you."
CSEA officials say ' t h a t Mr.
Schonhorn's comments underscore the union's contention that n
<
the state deliberately ran down
mental institutions by understaff- r
ing to create scandalous condi- IX
tions so that private industry w
could be brought in to take over
direct care of patients.
n
"The state is using Federal
funds to get out of taking proper r
PI
care of the mentally ill and re- >
tarded," said William McGowan, o
PI
CSEA president.
Furthermore, he added, the
UCP takeover leaves the door n
open for further private take- S51
B
over of care for mental patients
throughout the state.
By presstime, rumors were circulating throughout the mental n
hygiene community here that 9
y
former Willowbrook patients now (t
housed in the Gouverneur Division of Manhattan Development cc
Center would be transferred to
Flower Fifth Ave., a private vol- ve
untary hospital, under the care
of a private organization, the
Mental Retardation Institute.
Worker reaction to threaten
layoffs at Willowbrook began to
reach crisis proportion several
weeks ago with a demonstration
on the grounds of the Staten Island institution. Mr. King called
that action step one. It was followed by picketing in front of
UCP headquarters In Manhattan
and at Albany locations.

CSEA Expected To Appeal
Legal Seryices Question
ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. is expected
to appeal a State Supreme Court judge's decision that a dissatisfied member can pursue a claim in court that the union
failed to properly represent him. The real issue in the case,
the CSEA says, is whether or not
a union has to provide extensive
legal services to any member In
every situation or whether a
union has the right to make a
reasonable determination based
on the facts as to whether or not
to provide such services.
The case In point Involves a
State Labor Department clerk
who was fired in July, 1975 after
he failed to return to work following an authorized leave of
absence due to an injury. The
CSEA determined at that time
that the individual was properly
dismissed under the law then In
effect and that no case for reinstatement existed.
Subsequently, in an unrelated
case, CSEA was successful In getting that section of the law declared unconstitutional. In August. 1976, the Labor Department
clerk was ordered reinstated by
the State Civil Service Department. He had previously retained
a private atttorney to seek reinstatement.
The Individual brought suit
against CSEA, seeking reimbursement for his private legal
fees and substantial punitive
damages from the union. There
have been several Instances In
which union members have sued
their
unions on the
same
grounds, but no union has ever
been ordered to pay punitive
damages.
The CSEA expects to appeal a
decision that the case can proceed, and In addition will file
numerous pre-trial motions and
procedures relative to the situation.

S t a t e is not required to provide
them.
It is law, t h a t every employer of one or more employees In New York State must
carry on-the-job Injury insurance
for those workers. S t a t e employees are covered for this type
of disability.
The steps to follow should a n
injury be sustained on t h e job
are:
—Oct first aid or medical
attention immediately f r o m
your own doctor, if h e or she
is authorized to treat the injury by the Workmen's C(Hnpensatlon Board;
—^Notify your supervisor of
the injiury a n d how it occurred,

it happens, otherwise benefits

whldi may be obtained f r o m
your employer or f r o m a Board
office, a n d send It to the n e a r est office of the Workmen's
Compensation Board.
These steps must be completed
if a n employee is to collect b e n efits. A worker must t h e n fcdlow
any instruction given him or her
by the doctor to speed recovery
a n d return to work as soon as
possible.
As stated previously, state
employees a r e not eligible for
disability benefits for injuries
sustained off the job. If a n o n ployee h a s a n accident or becomes ill and uses u p all accrued a n n u a l leave while recovering, t h e New York S t a t e
Civil Service Law mandates t h a t
half pay will be provided for
each day exceeding the a n n u a l
leave. Workers must, however,
have been on t h e state payroll
for at least one year before they
are eligible for t^is half-pay
provision. A doctor's report is
necessary to establish eligibility,
in addition.
An employer must provide
immediate medical attention to
a n injiu-ed worker, a n d complete
a report of the Injiuy on form <
C-2 to fUe with the Board. If
the employer does not comply
with these laws, a fine of up to
$500 may be imposed upon him
or her.
In
addition, according
to
Workmen's CcMnpensation Board
General Counsel Martin Mlnkowitz. a n employer may not discriminate against a n employee
collecting benefits, by harassment
or firing. If this occurs, the « n ployee must be reinstated with
back pay, if he or she can still
perform job duties.
H i e worker injured on t h e
job is entitled to medical, osteopathic, dental, podiatry, chiropractic, surgical and hospital
care benefits. If necessary, X rays, nursing services, lab tests,
drugs, and medical and surgical
appliances are also provided.
The benefits for a permanently
disabled individual are based on
two thirds of t h e average weekly
salary, not to exceed $95 a week.
As the result of a new law
signed by Gov. Hugh Carey Aug.
3. t h a t maximum will go to $125
a week in J a n u a r y 1978, to
$180 a week as of July 1, 1978,
then to a maximum of $215 In
J a n u a r y 1979.
Persons who beccHne p e r m a n ently disabled prior to the passage of this law will have their
benefit rates adjusted to include
the percentage increase under the
new law from their old rates.

for absence of more t h a n 14

than 14 days, benefits become

disabiUty.
State employees covered under
the four statewide Civil Service
Employees Assn. a g r e o n e n t s are
not eligible, however, for compensation until a f t e r the t e n t h
day of disability. But unlike
other employees, these state
workers can collect full pay up
to six months instead of only
two-thirds of the average weekly
wage provided by Workmen's
Compensation.
Persons who become partially
disabled on the job are entitled
to benefits based on two thirds
of the average weekly salary, not
to exceed $95 a week, which will
be extended to $105 a week as
of Jan. 1, 1978 for accidents occuring on or a f t e r t h a t date.

"They must be employed for

Governments in the United States
and each of them has the power
to tax. If you are a property owner and didn't pay your taxes for a
period of 2-3 years, your land
would be sold for the amount of
tax money due. Recently a 5 5 , 0 0 0 '
factory and warehouse building
was sold in New Jersey for $ 1 2 . 0 0 0
and a 4 4 room apartment house
was bought for only $ 1 5 , 0 0 0 — in
each case the owner could not be
located to pay the taxesi
A mobile home park was sold
for $ 2 , 4 0 0 , some lucky person purchased an entire upstate New York
vineyard for just $ 3 , 0 0 0 and a

•Leader
that has provided the Civil Service Employees- Assn. with a
president whose background in
the union has been primarily in
the Mental Hygiene Department.
William McOowan was (and
Is) the most respected leader of
the state labor conglomerate's
45,000 Mental Hygiene members
—about a fifth of the total membership. in fact.
Problems Increased
Since Mr. McOowan assumed
the CSEA presidency
three
months ago, the number of problems emanating from the Mental
Hygiene Department have increased.
Possibly this can be attributed
to the fact that he reacts quickly
to problems affecting Mental
Hygiene workers. This may be
the case with the confrontation
currently accelerating at Willowbrook Developmental Center on
Staten Island.
The fact that the union's president is interested in what is
happening there may be the incentive that the CSEA Local
leaders needed to put their backs
against the wall in a fight to
protect state employees at the
institution from being displaced
by the United Cerebral Palsy,
which is taking over operation of
seven buildings at the facility.
On the other hand, legislative
action this year to split the Department of Mental Hygiene into
three separate, smaller departments transpired before Mr. McGowan's election.
His home work site, West Seneca Developmental Center, will
be part of the Mental Retardation entity, while Mental Hygiene
will include the psychiatric centers. and the third, Alcohol and
Substance Abuse, will manage the
rehabilitation centers.
The problems that will occur
in the next few years as the result of several Mental Hygiene
reform bills that were passed Into
law following the last legislative
session are yet unknown.
One of the reasons that some
people oppose change is that the
best - intentioned Improvements
usually have some unanticipated
side effect that causes problems
In other areas.
So, while there are still many
theoretical objections to many of
the Mental Hygiene reforms, it
won't be until they are in actual
operation that the problems will
begin to show up.

The New Dues-Payers
T could be a repeat of the old adage: "If you can't beat
them, join them."
That's what many of the people, who recoiled with
horror when the State Legislature passed the Agency Shop
Bill and Governor Carey signed it, seemed to be doing. The
law says even non-CSEA members must pay something into
the union since they too benefit from union efforts to improve the lot of all state workers. Under the law, non-union
public employees must pay the equivalent of union dues.
This seems to be prompting many former non-union
employees to finally join ranks with their fellow workers.
A report from Long Island indicates Civil Service Employees
Assn. membership there and in other areas of the state is
quickly rising. Many of the new members are former nonunion state employees.
To this, we say Amen. We also congratulate these new
CSEAers for their wisdom. In our view, joining the CSEA
always seemed more logical than trying to remain aloft
while union meetings and gatherings and hard negotiations
are going on all around them.
The new members will discover they have a group of
dedicated and hard-working union leaders who are constantly trying to protect their rights as workers. They will
also find a camaraderie among fellow members that will
help make their association with the organization more
pleasant. Many of them, we suspect, will wonder why they
didn't sign up long ago.
The Agency Shop controversy at first sharply divided
some workers. Many non-union employees felt pressured
by the union effort to convince state lawmakers to vote for
the measure. Many argued they had no obligation to the
union.
We disagreed with this view then as we do now, and
we are certain the new members will discover their first
instincts were incorrect. We welcome them into the CSEA
fold with the hope that their continued membership will
be enjoyable, eventful, meaningful and fulfilling.

Happy New Year
HASHANAH, the Jewish New Year, is upon us again.
ROSH
It marks the beginning of the year 5738 on the Hebrew
calendar. Our Jewish friends are taking this time for quiet
celebration, prayer and contemplation.
Unfortunately, Rosh Hashana comes at a time of struggle, misunderstanding and intolerance in the world. While
millions of people are observing Rosh Hashana, Israelis and
Arabs are at odds in the Middle East, Protestants and Catholics are killing each other in Ireland, and Jews cannot worship and' live freely in Russia. And the ugly monster of
racism and anti-semitism still exists in some parts of the
United States.
Irritants of this sort should be opposed and, hopefully,
eliminated some day, whether it be in the Middle East, the
United States, Russia, among high-level society people or
in the gutters, among professionals or blue-collar workers,
In private Industry or in civil service.
We extend to our Jewish friends our best wishes for a
healthy, happy and peaceful New Year. May you all have
your names written in the Book of Life.
(Ii.A.T.)
Criminal Insane
In other areas, there are concerns about tenanting the criminally Insane at facilities where
the workers are not trained to
deal with them. This problem has
recently surfaced at Marcy Psychiatric Center and is hopefully
being worked out by union officials and state representatives.
Then, too, there is the longfestering controversy over deinstitutionalization.
,
It is ironic, in a way, that so
many other trouble spots in. the
union seem to lutve quieted down
at this time, leaving the spotlight
on Mental Hygiene, a department that seems always to be
seething with problems.
Anyhow, whether Mental Hygiene problems are currently attracting attention because of the
quietude elsewhere, or because of
the sympathies of the union
president, or because the time
has come to flex a few muscles
in defense of old grievances, the
Association lias in William McOowan the ideal man to pursue
the Mental Hygiene battles: •

Mr. Gaba is a member of the New York Bar and Chainnan
of the Nassau County Bar Association Labor Law Committee.
Appropriate
Penalty
A black policeman of the Syracuse Police Department
was suspended from duty Jan. 20, 1971, for failing to obey
the order of a superior officer that he submit a written
report concerning a public altercation between himself
and another policeman.
Subsequently, formal charges were lodged against him
pursuant to Section 75 of the Civil Service Law. On June 2,
1971, after a short sick leave, he was placed on suspension
once again, and the Section 75 charges were amended to
include several other acts of misconduct committed by the
police officer. He was found guilty of six charges of misconduct and was dismissed after a hearing pursuant toSection 75, Civil Service Law.
During this suspension, the officer filed a complaint
against the police department with the State Division of
Human Rights. He alleged that his suspension on Jan. 20
was an unlawful discriminatory act in that the punishment
was more severe than that accorded a white policeman guilty
of similar violations. The Human Rights Division found
for the officer and ordered back pay and $1,500 damages
for mental anguish and incidental relief. That portion of
the order was affirmed by the Human Rights Appeal Board
and was not challenged by the City of Syracuse.

SUBSEQUENTLY, THE OFFICER amended his Human
rights, complaint to allege that his dismissal from the polled;
force was discriminatory. With respect to this allegation. Human Rights found no unlawful discrimination in his dismissal
from the Police Department. The State Human Rights Appeal Board reversed these findings, stating that "there is
substantial evidence in the record" that the city unlawfully
discriminated in discharging the black officer. The City
of Syracuse instituted an action pursuant to Section 298
of the Executve Law by which they sought to annul the
determination of .the State Human Rights Appeal Board.
The Appellate Division, Fourth Department, reinstated
the Commissioner's order and stated that the power of the
Human Rights Appeal Boar4 to review is limited to determining "whether the decision of the commissioner is supported by substantial evidence." The court held that the
decision of the Human Rights Commissioner must prevail
if supported by substantial evidence. This test is met if
the decision rests on such relevant evidence as a reasonable
mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion. The
court concluded that the dismissal of the j^Uce officer
based on his being found guilty of several acts of misconduct was an appropriate penalty and not discriminatory
and was supported by the record. State Division of Hanutn

RETIREMENT
NEWS & FACTS
By PAMELA CRAIG
THE PLACE: Kln^s Park Psychiatric Center
l y A. L PETERS
QUESTION: The fall convention of the CivU Service Employees Assn. toill be held
in several weeks. On what issues do you feel the delegates should focus their concern?
Marjorie Goldberg, stenographer: "I suggest that
the delegates focus on the promotional testing for stenographers and on down the line.
When the State gives out a
test, it is either departmental
or competitive and anybody In
the department or the world
can take the test. There are
many people who can pass tests,
yet they do not have the capability to preform the job. My
husband passed the* medical
records exam because he is extremely bright and
a good test taker. Yet, there are people in the
office who are poor test takers and perform their
jobs superbly. There should be a change in the
testing procedure, a more selective type of test,
perhaps."
Florence Murphy, administrative secretary: "I feel
that we should see some kind of
career ladder enforced. The exams should also be geared for
the department you work in.
As it stands now, in order to
advance, you must take a promotional test that has no bearing on the job you do. Why
should a stenographer take a
test for medical records Instead
of a more difficult stenographer's exam when she wants
to advance from a grade 3 to a grade 7 as a
stenographer. Why take a test for a Job you are
not really performing? This is an Issue I hope
the convention will address Itself to."
Anne McConnack, stenographer: "The representatives at the convention should
be made aware of the need for
an increase in the ratio of
clerical staff in order to meet
the need of added documentation for records of patients concerning proof and continuity
of medical care, for utilization
review and the federal -and
state agencies or surveys for the
agencies furnishing health care
' funds. It is Important for the
clerical staff to increase on a ratio basis to keep
abreast of the expansion of medical, clinical and
interdisciplinary treatment team care of our patients and their written Input Into the records.
Dorothy Marotta, stenographer: "I feeV that the
steno's position has changed in
the past five or six years. We
are no longer stenos. I think
we are secretaries and it should
be categorized as so. Some of us
are medical secretaries, some of
us are psychiatric secretaries,
some of us are legal secretaries,
and In some sections, we are
all three. I think the convention should make a study of the
position. We have to remind
the doctors of their schedules. Medicare and
Medicaid must be done on time. Utilization and
court retentions also must be done on time. We
are no longer just stenographers who sit and type."
»
Tanya Anne Lowe, stenographer: "The stenographers, clerks and typists are
Isolated. They must start by
giving us decent equipment. The
desks, chairs and other furniture Is so antiquated, I'm
afraid they will collapse. The
clerical aides are put aside and
tremendous responsibility of our
paper work Is phenomenal. We
need a part-time file clerk, yet
we don't get one. They want
the files to be confidenltal, yet
we can't handle the volume. We're long forgotten, put In a drawer and sachet has been
put on us to keep us fresh."

ALBANY—Joseph Bakerian swallows a cup of
coffee, grabs two briefcases and dashes out of
his office to his waiting VW with over 100,000
miles on it. Leaving home in the morning, Michael White opens the trunk of his car to reveal
an extensive filing system contained in cardboard
boxes. Donald McCarthy spends the morning on
the phone and then spends the afternoon driving
in "a circle" that goes from downtown Albany,
to Niskayuna, to Schenectady and back to Albany
again.
Who are these men?
They are three Civil Service Employees Assn.
Capital Region field representatives; part of a
staff of nine who, in a typical day, travel to
several work locations visiting Local or unit
presidents, either because they have been called
to handle a problem or because they have not
been contacted for a while and want to make
a routine check on things.
all you need is finesse."
A DAY IN THE LIFE
Spending a typical day with each of these men
took me to the counties of Rensselaer, Saratoga,
Albany and Schenectady, and gave me a firsthand view of grievance hearings, grievance filing,
planning for contract negotiations and contract
ratifications.
"
For the most part I witnessed a casual, friendly
relationship between the field representative and
the officers and members. The relationship between the field representative and the management, at least from what I saw, was friendly
but formal.
After calling the regional office for messages
in the morning, Mr, Bakerian met with Rensselaer County Local president Samuel Ciraulo
to discuss upcoming meetings concerning contract negotiations for the City of Troy. From
there he made stops at the Brittonkill School

M
CJ
Leader Capital Region Correspondent Deborah Cassidy spent the day traveling with Civil Service Employees
Assn. Capital Region field representaitve Joseph Bakerian as he made various stops throughout Renssalear County
on union business.
There are seven field representatives and two
regional field organizers divided among the approximately 85 Locals throughout Region IV's 14
counties.
Jack Corcoran, field supervisor, maintains an
office at the Region headquarters and is responsible for coordinating the activities of the fieldmen.
Joseph Bakerian handles Rensselaer County;
Michael White serves Saratoga and Warren
Counties, and Donald McCarthy is assigned to
parts of Albany, Schenectady and Schoharie
Counties.
Working closely with unit or Local presidents,
the field representative handles grievance procedures, contract negotiations, membership recruitment, organization drives and officer training programs.
"A great deal can be accomplished by attending labor-management meetings," says Mr. Bakerian. These are regular meetings between the
employer and the union for informal discussion
of specific issues. It is here where good relationships begin. According to Mr. Bakerian, at
such a meeting the representative is often able
to solve small misunderstandings before they become grievances.
The representative is responsible for maintaining good relationships between himself and the
employees; himself and the Local president or
representative, and between the union and the
employer.
He spends a great deal of time in the law offices doing research to keep informed about new
laws and developments in the areas of retirement, insurance, labor and public employment.
"Many problems can be worked out on the
phone," says Mr. Bakerian. "It's more convenient
for the officer that way, and it saves the rep a
trip."
"In a grievance, you defend the employee no
matter what," adds Mr. White. "If you cannot
win you effect a compromise. And you always obtain legal assistance when it's a matter of an
employee possibly losing a job."
"Sometimes several people need you at the
same time. Then you must decide which issue is
the most important," explains Mr. McCarthy.
The job, they all say, requires a knowledge of
human behavior. One has to know when to be
tough and when to compromise. If the representative is hard on management people the first
time around, they usually respect him the next
time and his task is much easier.
Summing it all up, Mr. White says, "What it
comes down to is a personality game. Sometimes
District, Hudson Valley Community College and
the Rensselaer County Manor (a nursing home)
to check on things. He set up future meetings
if needed or went on his way, reminding the
unit presidents to call him.
All was quiet for the morning and we stopped
for lunch before the highlight of the day, which
was to be a grievance hearing in Rensselaer
County. Lunch was a chance to unwind, but as
it ended Mr. Bakerian started planning for the
rest of the afternoon.
The Rensselaer County unit president, Sue
Ernst, had taken care of the preliminary steps
involved in a grievance procedure and provided
Mr. Bakerian with the necessary notes, papers
and details. These he reviewed with the workers
before the hearing. He told the men what he
would do and what to expect.
The grievance concerned three highway workers who had been docked a day's pay for requesting personal leave without prior notice. The
CSEA maintained that unforeseen emergency
situations prevented the workers from giving
advance notice; this was a privilege written into
their contract.
Mechanicville Highway and Water Department
to write up new contract proposals. He firs't reviewed the old contract, explaining to me that
he handled so many that he forgets which is
which.
He began the meeting by explaining the entire
negotiating process to the members and warning
them about possible problems that could develop.
After an hour of discussion, he promised to draw
up the proposals suggested by the members, but
explained that they would not get all they were
asking for.
Later he would again review the proposals in
comparison to what was acquired in previous
years and present some realistic changes to the
members at a future meeting.
One member took the opportunity to discuss
his problem in collecting pay for vacation time
he spent working, and followed Mr, White's recommendation that he file a grievance, Mr. White
answered other members' questions about medical
and insurance benefits offered to them by the
CSEA and distributed pertinent literature.
Heading home for dinner at 5 p,m,, Mr, White
said he would be on the road again at 7 p.m. for
a contract hearing that evening,
CONTRACT APPROVAL
Mr, McCarthy expected to have a typical day
handling a number of grievances, but he received
a phone call the night before from Niskayuna
School District officials who were anxious to
ratify a long-standing contract. He and the Local
president met that evening with the district officials to work out a settlement which would be
presented to the members the next day.
And so his day began in the regional office
making phone calls to arrange the meeting.
While there, he took the time to make several
routine calls.
,
Once on his way, Mr. McCarthy's first stop was
to a state office to aid a member in filing the
proper papers for a grievance hearing. From there
he went to the CSEA headquarters for some
help in figuring out the new percentage raise
offered in the contract, and to the CSEA printshop to have copies of the contract made for
the members.
Lunch was squeezed in at noon, followed by
several state stops to check on pending grievances.
The early afternoon found us at the school
where Mr. McCarthy and the Local president
discussed the contract. Both expected some dissatisfaction but, knowing they had done the best
they could, they were confident it would be approved.
Mr. McCarthy explained the changes to the
members, advised them of both the strong and
the weak points of the contract and urged them
to accept it. They voted and ratified the contract.
After the meeting he spent several minutes ans-
Though much of the work is similar, the varied territories
in the Capital Region require different things of each field
representative. Each develops a relationship with his
people that no one else can easily step into.
In the hearing, Mr. Bakerian carefully presented the workers' stories and listened to the
County's viewpoint. After an hour or so of discussion, the County decided to reconsider its
actions and review the situation once more. The
two sides rescheduled a future hearing.
Untypically, Mr. Bakerian's day ended at five.
"Often there are meetings to attend at night,"
he explained.
Mr. White's day also began with a call to the
Region for messages, and consisted of several
visits to work locations just to check on things.
He combined lunch with a Local officers' installation ceremony to which he had been invited.
There he took the opportunity to discuss issues
with the various officers and found things to be
quiet for the most part.
CONTRACT PROPOSALS
The afternoon included a few more unannounced stops and finally a meeting with the
wering questions from individual members.
A number of routine stops ended the day, at
least until later that evening when he would have
to return to Schenectady for a grievance hearing.
SAME JOB: BUT DIFFERENT
Though much of the work is similar, the varied
territories in the Capital Region require different things of eacti field representative. Each develops a relationship with his people that no one
else can easily step into.
In fact, one fieldman told me he does not even
like to take a vacation because, although the field
supervisor. Jack Corcoran, or another field representative can fill in for him, there are certain
aspects with which only he is familiar to handle
and, therefore, the work would pile up. To compensate, he takes off Mondays and enjoys threeday weekends throughout the summer.
Mr. White's situation is unique because he
(Continued on Page 9)
(Continued from P»re 8)
works out of his home. Most people call him
there, leav^g messages with an answering service if he is out. Unlike the others, he stops into
the regional office only once a week to do paperwork; iiut like them, he calls on the average of
twice a day to receive messages. With the regional offitfe as their base, Mr. Bakerian and
Mr. McCarthy stop in almost daily. If tightly
scheduled appointments keep them from stopping iii, they call as soon as the offices open
in the morning.
LOCALS. UNITS: LARGE AND SMALL
In Rensselaer County, Mr. Bakerian finds himself dealing mainly with large Locals such as the
City of Troy and Rensselaer County. Much activity goes on here and, due to the complexity of
matters, he is called upon quite often for advice
and assistance. He handles a great number of
contracts, sometimes five or six at a time. The
few school districts which he handles in the

and when to compromise.
• • • Field Reps
outlying areas are quieter and take care of most
of their own problems. Theirs is a kind of quiet
respect or awe for the union, he finds.
Mr. White, on the other hand, has fewer large
offices to deal with, but finds himself extremely
busy with small suburban or country units. Since
these units are more spread out and not as organized as other areas in the CSEA, they rely
more on the field representative to handle routine matters. Other field representatives, for
example, usually take over a grievance on step
three, after the president has. taken it as far as
possible. Mr. White, however, handles the entire
procedure from the beginning. He handles correspondence and other little things a field representative would normally not do. Such contact,
however, has brought him closer to the people
he represents and results In Invitations to many
social functions.
Though he has territory in Schenectady and
Schoharie Counties, the state offices In Albany
County demand much more of Mr. McCarthy's
time. This work, of course, Involves fewer contracts and more disciplinary actions and grievances. The work keeps him on the phone much
more than the other field representatives.
NOT NINE TO FIVE .
When discussing the advantages' and disadvantages of their jobs, the three men have a lot
in common. It is not a nine-to-five job. Many
hearings, especially for contract negotiations,

GO TO HEALTH U.S. Job Policies Under Review
Br WmiAM R. WnUFOBD
BAdy people a t « n m f u a e d with t h e notion t h a t because the United
S t a t M had the most expensive medical care system In the world.
It aUo hhs t h e healthiest of populations.
T h e f(M t r u t h Is t h a t the United States, despite Its vast wealth,
ranks only 34th In the world life-expectancy
table. T h e Norwegians a n d the Swedes, who
have the longest life expectancy, live,' on t h e
average, five m o r e years t h a n we do.
So you say. why not move to Norway to pick
u p those five years? Unfortunately, for the
Norwegian Chamber of Commerce, It is not t h a t
easy. I n fact, it's n o t Norway but the way Norwegians live t h a t accounts for their five-year
advantage. T h e i r advice is simple — eat and
smoke less and stay active.
Much of our ill health (heart disease, arteriosclerosis. cancer, a n d addictions to food, alcohol and cigarettes) is
self-inflicted. W h a t is killing us is the way we live. Too many of
us do live today like there is no tomorrow.
T h e life-style each of us adopts appears to be the most i m portant f M t o r In determining health and longevity.
Additional support f o r healthy life styles is provided by Dean
Breslow and his associates a t the UCLA school of public health.
They studied w h a t happened to people who observed the following
seven comnum sense rules for good health a n d longevity:
(1) don't smoke
(2) get seven hours of sleep
(3) eat breakfast
(4) keep your weight down
(5) drink moderately
(6) exercise regularly
(7) d o n t eat between meals
They foimd t h a t a person who followed six of the seven rules
had a n 11-year longer life expectancy a t age 45 t h a n someone who
followed less t h a n four. And a 75-year old who followed the p r e scription to t h e letter had the same physical health status as those
age 35 to 44 who followed less t h a n three.
J a m e s E. Birren. a psychologist a n d physiologist a t the University of Southern California and a n authority on tlie effects of aging,
believes t h a t the quality of life and longevity go h a n d in liand. Dr.
Birren states "by reducing t h e a m o u n t you eat a n d drink, not
smoking and taking regular exercise, you're living well and y o u l l
probably live longer."

Morgan Guaranty reports
on" Transactions in Securities
of the City of New York''
On August 26,1977, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a staff report
entitled "Transactions in Securities of the
City of New York."
The report claimed thatfivemajor banks
(including Morgan Guaranty Trust Company), while underwriting New York City
notes, "followed a policy of trying to reduce
or eliminate their own holdings in City
notes by sales and by not reinvesting in new
issues the proceeds obtained by them from
redemption of maturing issues."
In news media and political speeches
this was interpreted as: "Banks dumped
their own holdings while selling notes to
investors."
Did we "dump"?
Here are the uncontested figures that show
Morgan Guaranty's investment holdings of
New York City notes during the period
covered by the SEC staff report:
September 30, 1974
October 31, 1974
November 30, 1974
December 31, 1974
January 31, 1975
February 28, 1975
March 31, 1975
April 30, 1975
$ 51,100,000
51,100,000
51,100,000
51,100,000
50,000,000
50,000,000
148,000,000
98,000,000
The amount went down (by 2%) in
January because $1,100,000 of notes matured and were paid off. It went up in
March when we purchased $98,000,000
of new notes. It went down in April when
$50,000,000 matured and were paid off,
but at the end of April it was still nearly
double what it had been at the start of the
"period.
During the whole period, we didn't sell
any New York City notes from our investment holdings.
These facts and figures prove that we
didn't "dump." They also prove that we
didn't follow the policy the SEC staff report attributed to us.
Confidence in the City
The record of our investment holdings
shows the confidence we had that New
York City would survive its financial
crisis. That confidence never wavered
all the while news accounts were almost daily telling of the City's fiscal
problems—debates about budget deficits, budgetary "gimmicks," special accounting practices, operating expenses in
the capital budget, to name some of the
most prominent.
The confidence we had that the City
would pull through was the reason Morgan
Guaranty continued underwriting the
City's issues while the market remained open to them. In July 1975, after the
City had lost access to the public market,
we managed the syndicate that underwrote and marketed thefirstissue of bonds
of the Municipal Assistance Corpjoration
(MAC)—a $1,000,000,000 issue that gave
MAC fimds to help tide the City over the
sunmier.
In November 1975, as part of the arrangements that brought Federal credit assistance to New York City, we and other
banks extended the maturities of the City
notes we held. We also accepted a reduced
rate of interest on them and on the MAC
bonds we had bought.
By the end of 1975 Morgan Guaranty's
investment holdings of City notes and
MAC bonds totaled $186,600,000. Today
we still own $83,800,000 of City notes and
we own $105,000,000 of MAC bonds. We
and other New York City banks have
agreed to exchange our City notes for longterm MAC bonds and to extend the maturity of the MAC bonds we bought in 1975.
This agreement, concluded in August 1977,
will substantially ease the City's burden of
debt service.
The City survived
Committing the bank's money, underwriting securities, working hundreds of hours
with City, State, MAC, and Federal
officials to meet one crisis deadline after
another—these were among the ways
Morgan Guaranty joined in the effort to
save the City.
The effort succeeded. The City survived
those very difficult times.
What about the notes?
And what about the notes which the banks,
along with the investment bankers, underwrote? Of those bought by the public,
any not already matured and paid were
subject to the moratorium enacted by New
York State in November 1975, which was
declared unconstitutional in November
1976. As of today, all of the notes bought by
the public have been paid, or are to be paid
within the next six months, or have been
exchanged for currently marketable MAC
securities.

Who Gets 4 Percent Pay Hike Next Month?
(Continued from Page 1)
people receiving the increments).
The new-hires, however, are
working at the salary schedule
rate (100 percent). Thus, their
5 percent increase is based on
Just that.
If we change those percentages
to an exact dollar amount, it
means that older employees next
.April will be making (comparatively) $114.45, the new-hires will
be receiving $105 and Ihose
people joining the payroll after
April 1, 1977, will be getting $100,
PAYROLL DATES
According to the Civil
Service Employees Assn.
the 4 percent pay hikes
are expected to be reflected in the Oct. 12 Administrative checks and the
Oct.
19
Institutional
checks.
which remains as the salary
schedule.
Now let's further complicate it
for some of those people in the
starting grades 1, 2, and 3.
Here we have additional problems because there is a minimum
salary.
The beginning salary for a
Grade 3 is $5,871. After one year
this increases to a $6,000 minimum, and after two years it goes
to $6,500. There are many Grade
3's.
The same minimums apply to
Grade 1 and Grade 2 workers,
but their beginning salaries are
$5,370 and $5,585 respectively.
The salary increases, however,
are based on the salary schedule
not on the minimum wage.
This means that a Grade 1
worker (there are very few of
them actually) with less than one
year of state service would have
received a $500 pay raise effective to last April 1.
(We are now talking in terms
of $500, $400 and $500 instead
of 5 percent, 4 percent and 5
percent, since workers making
less than $10,000 are provided
with flat-sum increases that
amount to considerably more
than the percentages, especially
in these lowest grades.)
On the other hand, if the person has been working long
enough to qualify for the increment after one year, the Grade
1 employee then gets $5,620 per
schedule, but in actuality is being paid at the minimum salary
of $6,000. This person would receive only $380 in the retroactive
raise, but will be eligible for the
full $400 raise in October.
We could detail the salary
steps for the three lowest grades
to a point of utter confusion.
We'll simplify this by saying that
the salary schedule of a Grade 1
employee never reaches the minimum wage actually being paid.
A Grade 2 tops the minimum
wage in the fifth year of employment, and the Grade 3 goes over
in the fourth year.
Since the increases are based
on salary schedule and not minimums, the increases may be considerably less than the expected
general raise. It is possible that
some individuals may not receive
an in-the-pocket pay raise until
next April, because they are receiving more money at the minimum than the raise amounts to.
If you did not receive a raise,
forms are available from the
CivU Service Employees Assn.,
Attn: WiUiam Blom, Director of
Research, 33 Elk St., Albany,
N.Y. 12207. Data is being gathered to bolster the union's legal
action.
There is also controversy over
people who have accepted promotions, since they are transferring to a new job at the set salary schedule. Even though they
may be making more money at
the promotion job, they are regarded as new-hires.
This is all very simple—if you
understand it—so start from the
beginning and read this article
again very slowly. If we have
totally confused you, write us
your inquiry, and we will try to
get better information for you.
Canastota Board Of Education
Votes Against Contracting Out
CANASTOTA—The Board of Education of the Canastota Central School District recently voted unanimously to reject all bids for a contracted cafeteria food service. The
Board, Instead, opted to hire a food manager for the cafeteria.
The decision came after months of heated discussions and meetings with school
board officials by members of
Madison County Civil Service
Employees Assn. Local 827,
headed by Joseph Capparelli.
"Naturally, we are very pleased
with the Board decision," Mr.
Capparelli said. "We fought like
hell to save those 20 jobs and
it's a great victory. It took a lot
of meetings with the Board of
Education; meetings with community leaders to explain our
position; cafeteria employee rallies, plus the total support of all
CSEA members in Madison
County. The turning point, I believe, was the "Save Our Cafeteria Workers Jobs petition circulated within the Canastota
community," Mr. Capparelli continued. "We presented a petition
to the Board with 665 signatures
opposing any outside cafeteria
service. Apparently that petition
convinced the Board that the will
of Canastota taxpayers indicated
the cafeteria should continue to
operate "as is." We understand
the Board considered three options: hiring an outside food service, hiring a new cafeteria manager, or allowing a food service
company to manage as a 'consultant.' We conducted some outside
research work and learned that
taxpayers in some other areas
throughout the state were dissatisfied with "hired" food services. Either the quality of food
left much to be desired, or the
service surprised parents with an
increase in prices. Now our cafeteria employees in Canastota are
going all out to prove the Board
of Education made the right decision." Mr. Capparelli concluded.
APPROVE BUDGET
The Civil Service Employees
Assn. last week set some sort
of record when it approved a
nearly $10 million budget for
the coming year in a one day
session last Thursday.
In previous years budget debates had gone on for as long
as two or three months. An
orderly session preceded by the
Board members "doing their
