Bill Calls for Equal Pay Applied to Employees of Counties, Towns, Villages

ALBANY, Feb. 14. — A bill has gone into the State Legislature requiring that all counties, towns and districts set up salary plans and regular Increment schedules. The measure is sponsored by the Civil Service Employees Associa-tion.

Under existing law the political subdivisions of the State, as dis-tinguished from the State itself, lire not required to provide equal pay for eyual work.

Annual Schedules • Thi.s bill would amend the Civil Gervice Law to provide that each political subdivision of the State would be required to file salary schedules annually with the ap-propriate civil service commission, showing a salary plan with incre-ments and uniform title classifica-tton. This would insure within

each political subdivision uni-formity of salary treatment for the employees.

The legislation does not violate any "home rule" principles since it does not require the payment of any particular minimum salary, but merely the payment of uniform salaries within a subdivision. Simi-larly it does not require uniform-ity between or among subdivisions. Each subdivision would be free to establish its own scale of salaries in accordance with its financial ability and competitive necessity.

Inequities Removed The legislation would insure,

however, the removal of inequi-ties between employees doing the same work in the same office who are presently compensated in many subdivisions at widely dif-fering salaries.

A LEADER PROFILE

iThe Newsman Who Became Superintendent of Banks

One thinks of bankers in the stereotype of portly, humorle.ss. rigid gentlemen. And one would tend to imagine that the head of a banking department would be the archtype of these character-istics. I What a surprise, then, to speak With the head of the State Bank-ing Department whom Governor Harriman appointed, George A. Mooney. He's a newspaperman, talks like a newspaperman, cracks jokes like a newspaperman; any resemblance to the banker type is purely coincidental — based on the fact that he knows more about banking than most bankers. He came to the Banking Department from the New York Times, where he was assistant to the Business »nd Financial editor.

The Banking Department regu-lates the activities of all but na-tional banks, of lending institu-tions, savings associations, credit Unions — all except — curiously .— those doing business as " fac-tors." The factor is a money-lend-er who generally works on a highly personal basis with businesses.

Never Occurred to Him I Mooney is a tall, lanky, easy-Walking man. His voice is purest New Yorkese. The idea that he might one day be State Banking Superintendent was as foreign to him as though someone had sug-gested he'd someday be owner of fche New York Times. However, bankers whom he was covering for news would occasionally remark, tn jest, "George, you might make • good banking superintendent." and then both would laugh heart-ily over such a far-fetched idea. But banking friends in recent years iwould bring up the idea with in-creasing frequency, and finally it Btruck home. "Why not?" thought Mooney. He talked it over with persons in the Democratic hier-archy, and they liked the idea ioo. Eventually, the name George i i . Mooney trickled up to Harri-man, and the appointment came Uu'ough.

.(: The Duties Are DifTerent ' His pre.sent duties are far dif-ferent from those that occupied him as a newspaperman. He must have — and this he does have — a good knowledge of banking in order to understand the problems of the industry. He must make de-cisions constantly — such decl-eion.'i as the desirability of one ; branch office versus another. He has the power to grant or reject banking licenses. He supervises Ibanlc activities. He dislikes the Idea of "cracking down." Tlie iwork. he says, "involves an ele-meat of suasion." He gives the example of a bank which does not eome under his jurisdiction. "If a IMktwaal baai wanted to set uy »

branch where we felt it shouldn't go, we'd sit down and try to work out something that would be sat-isfactory all around."

His department consists of 270 employees, of which 170 are ex-aminers. He has offered to make representations on their behalf for upgradings. "They're entitled to every consideration on the mat-ter of salary," he says.

Real New Yorker Mooney is a real New Yorker —

born in the city on November 23, 1911. He joined the staff of the Times as an office boy after grad-uating from high school. He took a Bachelor of Science degree from Fordham University in 1936. While there, he was president of his section of the senior class.

Meanwhile, he worKed at vari-ous tasks on the Times, being finally assigned to the foreign staff in London. He handled gen-eral news assignments, re-writing jobs, features. Back in New York, he was given general assignments. He wrote about Jack Benny. In 1941, he became assistant business news editor; and continued on this job until he entered the Navy in 1944. Four years later he was given the financial news beat; and in 1954. he was named assistant to Jack Borrest, financial busi-ne.ss editor. A fellow reporter said of him: "George is the best police reporter covering banks." To a newsman, no praise could be higher.

He was the flr.st president of the World Trade Writers Association, an organization composed exclu-sively of writers on international trade. He has one bobby — golf.

Javits Sets March 15 Limit For Statement of 'Outside Interests' by Employees 'Code of Ethics' Opinion Has Wide Impact

ALBANY, Feb. 14 — State de-partments and agencies have been notified by Attorney General Jacob K. Javits that officers and employ-ees have until March 15 to file statements of their outside inter-ests under New York State's Code of Ethics.

The code was establi.shed by the 1954 Legislature in the wake of trotting track scandals. It requires State officials and employees to report any financial interests In exce.ss of $10,000 in activities regu-lated by State agencies.

The Agencies Included Mr. Javits, in his 26-page opin-

ion, defined regulatory agencies as the Banking Department, Insur-ance Department, State Liquor Authority, Department of Agricul-

ture and Markets, Department of State, Public Service Commission and the Labor Department.

The Attorney General an-nounced he was setting up an ad-visory committee on ethical stand-ards. which would be composed of "distinguished men and women," to aid in administering the law.

The March 15 deadline applies to present office holders. Those joining State service in the future will have 30 days in which to file.

For Guidance Mr. Javits said his opinion was

prepared for the guidance of State workers in obeying the code and other related statutes. He empha-sized the memorandum "insures freedom in requesting opinions from his office."

Prohibition Part of the memorandum In-

cluded a set of standards, which are as follows:

1. No officer or employees of a State agency, member of the Legislature or legislative employee

should accept other employment which would impair his independ-ence of judgment in the exerclsa of his official duties.

2. No officer or employee of a State agency, member of tha Legislature or legislative employee should accept employment or en-gage in any business or profes-sional activities which would re-quire him to disclose confidential information which he has gained by reason of his official positioa or authority.

3. No officer or employee of a State agency, member of the Legislature or legislative employee should disclose confidential infor-mation acquired by him in the course of his official duties nor use •such information to further hU personal interests.

Unwarranted Privileges 4. No officer or employee of a

State agency, member of the Legislature or legislative employee should use or attempt to use his

Conference and Chapter Combine to Produce Outstanding Croup of Sessions In All'Day Syracuse Civil Service Event SYRACUSE, Feb. 14—In what

was one of the finest sessions of civil service employees ever held in the State, more than 250 State and county employees assembled here on Saturday, February 5, for a series of educational panels, ad-dresses, and a dinner-dance. Gov-ernor Harriman used the occasion to announce one of his important policy decisions, the introduction of legislation to provide for hear-ings and the right of reinstate-ment in disciplianry maters. The Governor's message (reported in last week's LEADER) was pre-sented in person by Alexander A. Faik, president of the Slate Civil Service Commission.

Two In One The meetings were held in the

Onondaga Hotel. They comprised the winter meeting of the Central Conference, Civil Service Employ-ees Association, and the 18th an-nual dinner-dance of the Syracuse chapter. The Onondaga chapter also participated.

The evening meeting heard two speakers in addition to Mr. Falk. They were Senator John H. Hughes, for the State legislators; and Maxwell Lehman, editor of the Civil Service LEADER. Mr. Hughes said that a Democratic Governor and Republican-con-trolled Legislature would not in-terfere with the granting of bene-fits to public employees. Senator Hughes, himself a Republican, lauded the appointment of Mr. Falk, a Democrat, to the presi-dency of the State Civil Service Commission.

Civil Service Mytiis Mr. Lehman, principal speaker,

addressed the group on the "Myths of Civil Service." He listed eight such myths now current, and ad-vised the assemblage that they must act vigorously to "nail every lie" uttered about public employees. He added that the public itself had obligations toward the employees, such obligations as providing fair pay, fair methods of negotiation.

And there's one food he just can't get enough of — steak.

George Mooney is married to Charlotte Strom. They have three children.

'OK Guy-Epligue: The employees in the

Banking Department who have had occa.sion to deal with hiui say; 'He's aa OK guy."

Public employees must resist all attempts to make second-class citizens of them," Mr. Lehman said. Among the myths, to which tie gave the factual answers, were those charging that public em-ployees are overpaid, wasteful, in-competent, corrupt, disloyal.

Toastmaster was Jerome G. Kov-alcik, of the State University Col-lege of Forestry.

Dinner was followed by enter-tainment from the Geraldine Arn-old Singers and dancing to the music of the Parisians.

Castle on Education A morning session presided over

by Raymond G. Castle elicited a variety of ideas for improving chapter functioning. State and county chapter presidents and other officers attended the session. Mr. Castle has been urging the need for education at the chapter level, and this meeting demon-strated his thesis. It was brought out that chapters have their elec-tions at different times, meet vari-ously from four to ten times a year, and have different means of reaching their members. Mr. Cas-tle, chairman of the State-wide CSEA Education Committee, said that the committee desired to train chapter officers for beter leader-ship. The group also decided to use the Civil Service LEADER more effectively, through the medi-um of chapter news. In addition to personal items, the chapters agreed to include news of broader employee interest. Each chapter was urged to appoint a public re-lations director to gather news for The LEADER. (An article on types of news, where to get news and how to prepare it, will appear shortly in The LEADER.—Editor)

Afternoon panel sessions were held on social security, retirement, and public relations. The social se-curity meeting was addressed by S. A. Edson, director of the Syra-cuse office. Social Security Board. He answered questions on the pos-sibilities of combining social se-curity with public retirement sys-tems.

SUhl on Retirement Kenneth Stahl, of the State Re-

tirement System, conducted a panel. With him were oJseph P. Bourke, Deputy City Auditor of Syracus-e; and Carl Meklein, Onon-daga County Auditor. Mr. Stahl, a lecogulzfid authority oa the

working of the State Retirement System, described its operations and told how employees are affect-ed by various options.

The panel on public relations was presided over by Mr. Lehman. Participating with him were Mrs. Melanie Kreutzer, president of the Syracuse Common Council; an(l Thomas Dyer, chairman of the Onondaga Board of Supervisors, Both Mrs. Kreutzer and Mr. Dyer expressed their interest in good employee relations.

Legislators Present Among the guests present were:

State Senator Searles G. Shuits, Assemblyman Philip R. Chase, As-semblyman Lawrence M. Rulison, Assemblyman Charles A. Schoe-neck, Jr.

More Informafion Should Be Distributed on Social Security

Pl 'BLIC EMPLOYEE interest in retirement, once centered on higher pensions, and lower contributions and age limits, is now veering toward higher life insurance benefits and filling the void of survivorship benefits. The survivors are usually the widow and chil-dren, but not always. Other public employees also support relatives.

If life in.surance provisions, separate from those in the retire-ment law, ai'e established, as was done last year in the Federal government, the one benefit should add to the other. It is often ad-visable even to take out additional life in.surance, through a private company.

Minor Children The survivorship benefits, although concerning about the same

problem as life insurance, are probably more important, because, at least for the widow, would provide a continuing income; for minor children, the benefits normally would cease on children reaching age 18. Any coverage that affects the future of minor children is of the

utmost importance. The member of a public employee system may provide for his wife, too, on an annuity basis, a laudable choice, but one that simply apportions the purchasing power of the money he put up, to benefit a surviving beneficiary.

The percentage of retirements at minimum age is not large. An employee, even on attaining minimum retirement age, often finds he can not afford to retire. He may have children in high school or in college. At say, age 55, the employee should be in the prime of life. If he can not afford to retire, he certainly can not, so to speak, afford to die. The .situation is worsened if he dies while in service, because then the only return are his contributions plus interest.

There have been various suggestions of a pension for widow or children of such members, but without any recommendations about who is to defray the cost. The implication is that the employer should.

The present method is one whereby the annuity contributions of retired pensioners constitute a pool. The monthly checks are based on life expectancy. Some persons live beyond the actuarial deadline, others die earlier. The unused part of the contributions of the short-lived helps to defray the annuity costs of the long-lived. Social Se-curity provides a measure of protection against that calamity for which the public employee retirement system has no remedy.

Larger Survivorship Benefits If pensions are not large enough, neither are survivorship bene-

fits. Just as a public employee retirement system provides pensions at a much lower cost than a private company can provide, so does Social Security provide low-cost survivorship benefits. Anybody in favor of survivorship benefits should be in favor of co-ordinating So-cial Security with public employee retirement systems. It is a matter of importance not only to State employees in New York, but also employees of cities, towns, villages, and school districts. If the Legis-lature votes for such co-ordination, all employees of such units, if as coverage groups they vote in favor of coordination, would have the benefit. No such group would have the benefit forced on it.

Every employee group, and every individual employee, should in-terest himself in this important subject. The groups should appoint a Social Security committee. Each employee should study the sub-ject on his own account, form his opinion, and see what the commit-tee thinks of his views. The State government, and its communities, as well as employee groups, should give simple, clear-cut facts about Social Security. Public employees should obtain a copy of the Social Security Administration's pamphlet on benefits. There is nothing like enlightenment as a tool of democracy.

Fears and More Fears The very idea of uniting Social Security with any public employee

retirement system raises the blood pressure of some groups of em-ployees. Some fear that once the Federal government gets a foothold in the retirement system, it would take that system over entirely, a hardly convincing fear. Others fear that the minimum retirement age of 65, as provided under Social Security, would have an adverse effect on the earlier retirement ages, down to 55, provided in the State Employees Retirement System, and the NYC Employees Re-tirment System, although there is not even a hint of any such aim, either for present employees, protected by a Constitutional provision that makes their pension rights contractual, or for future employees, to whom, by change in the Constitution, such protection could be denied. Police and fire groups, with a 20-year or 25-year service period requirement, but no specified minimum age, are particularly •ensitive to the age aspect, fearing that where no age minimimi now Mists, one will be imposed. No better ground is shown for this fear tlian foir the other.

Higher Pensions Higher pensions are a laudable goal, because in the average case

pensions do not meet a pensioner s requirements, however modest those needs, and the income is usually less than he expected, because be thought his retirement allowance would total twice what the em-ployer puts up as a pension.

The allowance consists of two parts: 1. The annuity, which is purchased by the employee's own con-

tributions, and therefore is based on his average salaiy over all the fears of bis membership in the system;

2. The pension, paid by the employer, and based on the »ver-Mte of the any five successive years the employee chooses, and are naturally (he best five, hence the five most recent years, because of Misee.

Question, Please UNDER THE NTC CAREER and

Salary Plan, when will the 60 per cent difference between the retro-active benefit of pay raise be paid? L.M,

Answer — The dates for paying this have not been set, nor has any actual assurance been given that the 60 per cent ever will be paid. All that has been promised is that the City will pay the dif-ference if and when it can get enough money. The City is look-ing to the State government for additional sources of revenue to help do it.

IS IT TRUE that U.S. employees who have resigned may be rehired within three years, and that there is no time limit for veterans? L.P.E.

Answer — Yes, but permanent employees are the only ones who come under this protection. In-definite employees have no rein-statement rights. At present the career employees are the bene-ficiaries. The right to re-employ, however, is not to be confused with the duty to re-employ. No obligation exists on the part of the government to rehire.

WHEN AN EMPLOYEE is dropped during his probationary period, is it necessary that his name must go off the eligible list, because he was appointed from the list? C.C.J.

Answer — It is not necessary. Since the appointment did not mature, and he may have been dropped merely because he was unsuitable for the particular job, he might fit into some other job for which the list is appropriate.

Sholom Society Honors Klein

Samuel Urey was sworn in as president of the Sholom Society of the NYC Transit System by Commissioner Harris J. Klein of the Transit Authority.

Mr. Klein was made honorary executive president.

Edward Weiss, past president of the society and assistant counsel of the TA, presented the award.

Hyman Feldman, superintendent of bus maintenance, was made an honorary member of the society.

Piesent were Superintendent E. T. McNally; Colonel Edmonds, as-sistant general superintendent of surface lines; Leo Casey, M. Nagel-berg, A1 Knopf, Ben Aged, W. Gar-rett, H. J. Ritter and T. J. Dono-van.

as a court attendant. What are my chances of being allowed to compete? K.L.X.

Answer—The law requires NYC residence, for City jobs, for the three continuous years next pre-ceding appointment. Prior NYC residence, such as yours, does not help. 1

IN THE EFFORTS of the U.S. employees to get a higher raise than the Eisenhower Administra-tion proposes, are the bills for higher raises likely to succeed? M.P.C.

Ajiswer — There is no way of telling which bills will be passed by Congress, but the indications are that biljs that do carry some-what higher raises than the Ad-ministration proposes may be passed. Whether the President would veto such bills would de-pend to what extent they exceed his proposals. The President is said not to be opposed to a little more being granted, but not so much more as to upset his budget calculations. Administration offi-cials testifying before the Senate and House Post Office and Civil Service Committees have been asked whether the President would veto a 10 percent bill, and while they did not exactly say that he would, they intimated as much. Any bill vetoed by the President could be passed over his veto, but the Democrats do not have enough members to assure it.

M HEN A PROMOTION exam is to be held, and scores of em-ployees are excluded from takmg it, because they lack only three weeks of the required one year's service in the lower title, is that not unfair to these employees? L E G .

Answer — No. Since the .'iame rule is applied to all, intimation of unfairness is unjustified. The action is no more unfair than in flunking the candidates who got 69 percent in an exam in which the pa.ss mark was 70 percent. There is a difference between un-fairness and denial of opportunity. The quarrel is really with the date of the exam. If the exam date ia not all set, and the application period has not even opened, sucli employees as you mention could form a group, and have repre.sen-tatives explain to the Civil Service Commi.ssion the advisability of not holding tiie exam until the large group could qualify to take it. But the a.ssumption that the Commis-sion's action otherwise wa.? arbi-trary, capricious, and unreason-able is wholly unjustified.

State Groups In Lunch for Brotherhood

Southern Conference Debates 40-Hour ¥/eek

NEWBURGH. Feb. 14 — Whatner in which legislation is carried type of a 40-hour week? This question agitated members of the ^uthern Conference, Civil Serv-ice Employees Association, meeting In Newburgh for its winter meet-ing. John J. Kelly. Jr.. a;ssi.stant counsel, CSEA, told the group he was ready to put in legislation for the 40-hour week, but wanted the opinions of the assemblage as to "the kind" of 40-hour week they wanted.

Employees on a 48-hour sched-ule are seeking reduction to 40 hours but without any reduction in pay. Employees now on a 40-hour week argue that this would place them in the position of earning 20 per cent less than the 48-hour group. Another proposal is for an optional 40-hour week. Additional ideas call for a base of 40 hours, with time-and-a-hall for overtime.

Delegates to the Conference ar-gued the various proposals, but arrived at no firm decision.

Tiie Conference was addre.ssed also by Mary Goode Krone, State Civil Service Commissioner, and by Maxwell Lehman, editor of the Civil Service LEADER. Charles E. Lamb, of Sing Sing, Conference chairman, presided.

Krone on Morale Miss Krone voiced her belief

that employee morale constitutes a major factor in public employ-ment, and that management must be concerned with it. "There's not a bit of dillurence between a pub-lic and a private job," Miss Krone said, referring to the employee's place in tiie scheme. She pointed out that transfers are too ditflcult, and — referring to supervision — "being a slave driver is not the succe.ssful way to get a job done."

Mr. Lehiuau described the uiau-

through, and advised that the really important work has to be done at the local level, by the employees, to gain public senti-ment that will influence the leg-islators and the administration.

Francis A. MacDonald. former Conference chairman, called for employee unity "to make gains."

Lamb Calls for Wide Program Mr. Lamb reported upon actions

of the CSEA Board of Directors. He suggested consideration of ad-ditional sick leave for tho.se work-ing 44 and 48 hours a week; a 37'.i!-hour for clerical employees in institutions; paychecks once every second week rather than twice a month; allowances for uni-forms to employees who must wear them: and elimination of the 1-in-3 appointment rule in promotions.

The meeting was one of the best attended yet held by the Southern Conference.

Onondaga GSiasiter Vice Prexie Is 111

SYRACUSE, Feb. 14 — Onon-daga chapter, CSEA. reports the illness of its 1st vice president, David Rogers, of the Veterans Ad-ministration. Chapter members wish him a speedy recovery.

Leon Rouse of the County Home is in St. Joseph's Hospital. Ditto on get well wishes.

The Water Bureau, Department of Finance, has 100 per cent paid up membership. Congratulations to Busy Bee Leo Farreil on this fine job. Other departments should get busy and meet this mark.

The County Workshop was most interesting and informative. Sin-cere thanks to the speakers and the committee.

However, we are no longer alone, for there now are other groups iriterested in the representation and organization of public employees. Theue are two large labor unions and scores of independent, smaller groups with the same interest.

These facts should not surpris-e us. The changes in our society and in our government during the last generation should have led us *o expect them. You can<iot have two world wars, a rapid popula-tion growth, and an amazing series of technological developments without having tremendous changes in society and government. Gov-ernment alone has almost tripled in the size of its personnel in twenty-five years, and nearly doubled the ratio of its personnel to the rest of our employable population. In 1925 one out of every 14 of the working population was in the government service; today, the figure is one out of every nine.

Widening Gap Government has become a complex mass of tens of thousands of

human beings with all of their attendant human problems. The dis-tance between the head of any government agency and the employee has become great. Once, not too very long ago. this distance was much smaller. In the smallest department, the Civil Service Commi-ssion, there were less than fifty persons on the staff in 1932. It was not a difficult task for the commissioners to know personally every em-ployee and even to be familiar with facts about his personal life. The employee knew the commissioners, and often had ready access to the front office. Today, the problem is not that easy. The Commission has five and six hundred employees housed in several buildings in various parts of the State. It is practically impossible for the Com-mission to know all of the staff. If this is true in the State's smallest unit, the problem has become greatly magnified in the larger de-partments. In some the gap between the department head and the employee has become so wide as to be almost unbridgeable.

Organization !;> a Buficr Thus our existence and the existence of the other civil service

employee groups are the inevitable consequence of this factor of growth and size. Some organization must exist to stand between the department head and the employee, to be the buffer and absorb the shocks of human conflict and emotion. The employee, no longer able to speak for himself easily and make his wants and problems known, has banded together with fellow employees. His organization has be-come his representative, his spokesman, his champion.

Spokesman and Representative It is with our own organization that I am particularly concerned.

We feel we can more ably be the spokesman and representative of the employee. Our past history and our accomplishments have dem-onstrated this. No other organization can claim the progress we have made in the employees' interest. No other group has demonstrated a better understanding of the complex personnel and governmental problems. We are an organization devoted singly and solely to these problems. We do not have to fit our program into any other structure, and we are not part of any organivwtion which has to consider any interests other than those of the civil servant and the public he serves.

Positive ajid Favorable Opinion Other groups are stating their own interests in the civil servant

and seeking his loyalty. To keep our own Association and to expand it, we have to recognize the presence of these other groups and meet the problems they present. We will find our progress slow in the field of employee organization unless great care and thought is given to the internal and external problems of our organization. Our struc-ture must be under constant surveillance to insure a sound and flexible administration. And our external facings—or our program— must be attuned to achieve the objectives of our Association, to an-swer the needs of all civil servants, to meet the variety of needs of our members and to present to the body politic an aspect of assur-ance and communal interest which will create a positive and favor-able opinion.

State Group Goes on Record Opposing Payment of Full Cost on Social Security "Any legislation which would

require State employees to pay the full cost of social security would be discriminatory," H. Eliot Kaplan was told this week in a letter from the New York City chapter, CSEA.

Referring to a report that some eir;ployees had written a State Senator they would favor paying the entire cost of social security 'if the benefits could be added In full to the present benefits of the State Employees Retirement Sys-tem," the letter said:

"The State employees at the present time already pay the en-tire cost of their life insurance, health and accident insurance, and hospital and medical insur-ance. Insofar as fringe benefits are concerned. State employees are truly second-class citizens."

The chapter went on record as opposing "any move which would place State employees in a les« advantageous position than em-ployees in private industry."

Comment CONTROVERSY CONTIPXJES ON 40-IIOTJR WEFK Editor, The LEADER:

This letter is audres.sed to Mr. Edfrar V. Graham:

Apparently the last word has ndt been spoken in the current controversy over ' ^S hours pay for 40 hours work." Perhaps our com-parison of hourly pay rates was not sufficiently impressive to dem-onstrate the injustice of a "freeze" of overtime compensation into the salaries of 48- and 44-hour em-ployees without a compensating raise for both 40- and 44-hour employees as well. It is a clever bit of deception to maintain that 44-hour employees have "advanced half way toward the 40-hour goal." Rather they have advanced half way toward 48-hour take-home-pay. Mr. Graham's proposal to re-duce all ho«rs to 40 and still main-tain present take-home pay would be logical and just only if all per-sons in a particular salary grade were receiving the same pay for 40- 44- or 48-hours of work.

True, Mr. Graham, you state a "freeze" of overtime compen.sa-tion is not your intention, but in the very next sentence you say the present take-home pay must be maintained at the same time all hours are reduced to 40. Now it doesn't take much logical rea.son-ing to know that you can't have one without the other.

Shall we forget industry for a moment and concentrate on some State salary figures? In the re-cent re-allocation of salaries, the positions of senior medical tech-nician, carpenter and head cook were all placed in salary grade 11 with annual base salaries for 40 hours of work per week ranging from $3,540 to .$4,490. In other words tliese jobs were considered equal in required skills and re-sponsibilities for them to be .so designated. We do not feel quali-fied as individuals to upset this determination, nor do we admit that Mr. Graham is so qualified.

At the pre.sent time the head cook by virtue of his 48-hour week is receiving 20 per cent more, or a scale of $4.248-$5,388, and the carpenter by his 44-hour week has been increased 10 per cent to $3,894-$4.939. The senior medical technician with 40 hours stands at $3,540-$4,490. It is obvious that a reduction of hours in the ca.se of the 48-hour and 44-hour employee with no change in present take-home pay is an injustice of major proportions amounting to hun-dreds of dollars per year. It is as well a distortion of basic relative scales because the three positions cited started as equals and under your proposal would end far from that. If the head cook is to receive $4,248-$5,388 for 40 hours of work why not also the carpenter and the .senior medical technician? On positions of a higher grade the difference in salaries between 40-44- and 48-hour employees of the same grade increases to over a thousand dollars per year. No .small peanuts!

As 40-hour employees we can understand and sympathize with your desire to keep your pre.sent take-home pay, but we feel that the extra pay you draw should be earned. If it is not to be earned by extra work, then it becomes a pay raise of considerable proportions to which we feel fully entitled as State employees.

In these days of chronic infla-tion and higher living standards it is utter nonsense for 48-hour employees to point at 40-hours employees and say "you have ex-tra benefits." Shall we look at them? We have the privilege of taking home a smaller check, yes! We have the privilege of living at a lower .standard because of lower wages, yes! And we have the privi-lege of .securing other employment on our day off in an attempt to match the salaries received by 48-hour employees in our same grade. Impressive benefits, aren't they! These are the benefits you wish to avoid for yourselves as you go from 48 to 40 hours.

POLICE TRAINED TO SPOT ACTIONS OF MENTALLY ILL POLICEMEN in Arlington County, Va., have taken instruction

on the best ways to deal with persons who are mentally ill. The course is one of three innovations in police training. TTie

others concern a special course in hunting .slayers by the Detroit, Mich., police department, and machine tests of driving .skills of policcmen in the New "Vork City department.

The instruction psychology had no aim of making therapists out of Arlington County policemen. Its purpose was to tell them aibout types of abnormal behavior that can be expected from the mentaliy ill and how to act without harming afflicted persons.

The homicide investigation course is designed to give Detroit an easily-mobilized force of detectives trained in this work, in the event of ca.ses where a number of leads develop and need to be traced in a hurry. The plan is that in about three months enough men will be trained so that each precinct will have two detectives familiar with all pha.ses of homicide work.

After the training—which involves ob.serving autopsies, talking to su.spects, learning courtroom procedures, and getting acquainted with regular homicide officers at headquaixers—the men will go back to their regular duties but will be ready to help the headquarters stafT when needed.

Drivers of New York's police vehicles will have their psycho-physical reactions tested on new machines that are designed to show up drivers' weaknesses so that they can be corrected and to help eliminate drivers who cannot meet the standards for safe driving.

The testing equipment includes a macliine that records a .sub-ject's reaction to a change in traffic signals, a field-of-vision in.sl.ru-ment that finds how far he can delect movement on the side even though looking ahead, and a device called a telebinocular that shows color perception, sharpness of vision, and ability to judge distances.

THE CLEAH-UP fervor that moves citizens in spring and sum-mer has been sustained throughout the year as public h ja; ing pro-jects in four cities where managers have encouraged tiie tenants themselves to keep tlie grounds tidy.

Housing managers f fom Omaha. Neb.; San Antonio, Te::.; Toledo, O.; and 'Vonkers, N. Y., told the National A.ssociation of Housing and Redevelopment Officials that they have improved appearances and cut costs by gaining tenant cooperation.

Omaiia has a "lawn patrol," made up of 300 children from .six to 14. The project is divided into eight section.s, each having an adult sponsor. The children make periodic rounds of their areas, gathering unsightly trash for disposal. As a reward for their help, local mer-chants gave them a picnic in August. Each child who stays on the job for four or five weeks and indicates that he will continue gets to wear a badge marked "lawn patrol."

In San Antonio, a tenants' garden club held contests and gave cash awards to those who won in the "most beautiful yard " and "the most improved yard" competitions. The club is composed of 54 tenant families and was formed to encourage project residents to take more interest in the looks of their ground.- . Members plan to put flower pots on all project balconies and to take charge of caring for a nearby plot of park iand.

In Toledo, four projects took part in a season-long competition for yard maintenance. Tenunls in each of the four projects won awards for the appearance of their yards and a special prize was given to the tenant judged to have the most attractive yard of all. Local businessmen gave the prizes that were awarded.

The Yonkers hou.sing authority has published a booklet for tenants, with picture illustrating activities tljat add to the appear-ance of their homes and those that detract from it. The photos show actions like sweeping off doorsteps and tending gardens and con-trast them with marking building walls, hanging clothes out the windows, and the like.

The booklet was intended to explain tenant maintenance to children in terms they could understand, and authority ofiicials a.sked parents to use it in teaching their children how to follow project rules.

MANAGEMENT expects far too much of performance ratings of their workers, a personnel expert .says. It is supposed to lay bare weaknesses of workers—show up their hidden strengths help the boss tell how good his supervisors are at judging their worker.s—and besides all that it is suppo.sed to help make decisions about promo-tions and raises.

This is too much to expect of a judgment by one fallible human being about another fallible human being, writes Philip E. Hagerty, of the New York State Department of Civil Service. His article "Why Not Take the 'Rating' out of Performance Rating?" appears in the current Public Personnel Review, quarterly magailne of the Civil Service Assembly,

Management should substitute discussion and advice-giving con-ferences between employee and supervisor for performance rating, he says. Mr. Hagerty adds that the improvement of employee effec-tiveness should be the "one and only one" objective of a program ot a.s.se.ssing performance.

" I t is not necessary to pa.ss a judgment on an employee in order to advise him as to how to improve his effectiveness," according to the author. He suggests that the words "performance review" ba substituteu for • pen'ormancu rating."

tions by the employee therefore low. The employee ha.-; no complaint if the employer does more for him than the errployee does for himself, e."ipecially if the employee pa.ssed up his opporainity to inci jase his annuity account, by contributing up to half more than his regular amount.

Higher pensions would necessarily mean higher contributions by the employee, as well as by the employer. But the idea of having

the employer pay the cost of the pension in full is contrary to the best concepts of individual responsibility. When the government pro-vides everything, we have statism. Each individual should be more anxious to safeguard his own independence. Actually, everything the employee gets comes out of or is in lieu of 'salary. If it is a 100 percent employer paid pension plm, or a fringe benefit, salary is that much less because of those additional benefit.?.

The independence of the United States is the .sum of tiie inde-pendence of its individual citizens.
