The tree crew, members of CSEA Local 516, were broght in after it was decided that the tree had to come down. The men worked in the tree with large chain saws for several days. Finally they removed the stmp, which is seen as it was carted away on a flat-bed trck. From left, crew members are Larry Brr, Jake Wright, Bill Mrry, Red Leggett, Tom Tyler and Jon Barney. Also involved in the project, bt not present for the pictre, were Lyle Woolson, president of the local, and Herman Pitcher.

Everyone will have the opportnity to vote for the for statewide officers (whose resmes appear in this isse on pages 9 and 16). Only state-employed members may vote for representatives to the State Exective Committee (whose resmes appear in this isse on pages 14, 16-19). The State Exective Committee, when it meets in session with the Conty Exective Committee, statewide officers and standing committee chairmen, is part of the Board of Directors. State-employed members may vote for representatives from their departments only.'in the case of Mental Hygiene, the choices are frther restricted to voters within their regions. There will be three fewer State Exective Committee representatives to be elected this year, since the nmber is based on department size. Labor will choose two; Mental Hygiene Region VI will choose two, and Transportation will choose three. In each case, it is one less than the crrent nmber. Mltiple choices exist in several other departments, and are so designated in the listings of resmes inside this isse of The Leader. (ED'S NOTE: Representatives to the Conty Exective Committee shold also be chosen dring the same period, bt are handled at the chapter level, and may be a matter of general election or of local exective committee selection. The five Edcational Employees, representing the regional locals, are inclded in the Coimty Exective Committee.) All members may vote for regional officers, bt only witiiin their own regions. The list of regional candidates is printed below, and resmes will be inclded in a ftre Leader. It is difficlt, however, to precisely define for members the region in which they will be voting. Generally speaking, thogh, it depends on the administrative center for each area. New York City, in particlar, is the central point for many state Co Ot Offices them.

The ballots will be accompanied by an information letter detailing the terms of the agreement (pblished in fll in last week's Leader). On the first page of the letter is a note, marked important, which explains that if a majority of a Bargaining Unit votes for ratification, the agreement will be signed for that Unit. However, if a Bargaining Unit votes to reject the tentative agreement, negotiations for that nit will proceed to a Legislative Hearing as called for nder the Taylor Law. "Ths, nless all for bargaining nits, individally, accept or reject this tentative agreement, the effect will be that bargaining nits will be separated by different contract settlements and contract periods, thereby effectively weakening the nion and the workforce," the letter reads. The agreement is the same for all for bargaining nits except for a few specific provisions: Instittional Services Unit: A new seniority article for nit employees will define seniority and will now inclde overtime rosters, vacation holidays and training. Administrative Services Unit: Article 26, workday and workweek, is amended to inclde seniority for assigimient to shift. Seniority shall mean length of ninterrpted state service. Also, enmeration of 371/2- hor workweek and no change in length of workweek nless mtally agreed. * Operational Services Unit: Article 13 is amended to provide for seniority for appointment to vacancies when all factors are eqal, (seniority as defined in Section 80a of the Civil Service Law shall apply). In Article 13.3, the langage "The failre... to post... " is deleted. Professional. Scientific and Technical Services Unit: A new definition of seniority, defined as the length of an employee's continos state service on a part-time or fll-time basis from the date of original permanent appointment, is inclded.

The 90 bilding and gronds department employees had voted to strike the 8,600-ppil school district becase they have worked withot a contract since Jly Althogh the employees are members of the CSEA, the nion did not athorize the strike becase CSEA leaders felt that it was management's tactic to case Che illegal walkot. "The Hicksville school board provoked or members into a walkot with deliberate malice," said Edwin Cleary, Long Island regional field spervisor. "The board realizes the ineqities of the Taylor Law and they know that they cold not be fined or pnished for not bargaining.

Adding that "OGS is taking additional steps to pgrade the overall condition of this facility," Mr. Brke said that additional contracts will be let over the next several months for contined bilding improvements. In releasing the information, Mr. Bendet said, "The working conditions are deplorable and I am glad that measres are, at long last, being taken to rectify a bad sitation affecting the morale of the employees." The workers, on March 25, had held an emergency meeting to protect falling ceilings that showered employees and the pblic with debris and asbestos.

Ratification Vote Under Way (Contined from Page 1) iority, along with other factors, for shift assignment, pass day, overtime and volntary transfer. The decision to mail ot the ballots and informational letter came abot three weeks after the tentative pact was signed April 17, averting a strike the following day by the state's employees. Dring this three-week period the membership has been bsy trying to sort ot fact from rmor regarding a difference of interpretation over the agreement, which developed between the State and the CSEA. According to the informational letter, grievances will be filed if the State's interpretation of the agreement reslts in a violation. The following letter regarding this disagreement between the State and the CSEA was sent by Donald H. Wollett, director of the Office of Employee Relations, to CSEA president Hieodore C. Wenzl. The letter is printed below in its entirety: "Dear Ted: "The text of this letter was commnicated to Charles Mrphy, Chairman of the New York State Personnel Concil, on April 29th. It has occrred to me that it might be helpfl for me to repeat these statements in a letter to yo over my signatre, thereby indicating my concrrence. "1. Certain rinors concerning the effect of the negotiated salary increases are totally false. "It is rmored that the negotiated salary Increases will not be conted as salary for prposes of compting retirement benefits. This simply is not tre. "The negotiated salary increases will become part of employees' basic annal salary and will be inclded in the comptation of retirement benefits. "It is also rmored that becase the negotiated salary increases will not be reflected in the crrent salary schedle, employees' salaries will be redced to March 31, 1977 levels pon expiration of the negotiated agreement on March 31, There will be no sch effect. "Upon expiration of the negotiated agreement on March 31, 1979, employees' salaries will remain at the level in effect on that date except as they may be adjsted by negotiations for Hicksville (Contined from Page 1) fines imposed by the Taylor Law to pay for any raises that we get." As of Friday afternoon, the CSEA was standing by with the PERB waiting for the talks to resme. Frank McGowan, a conciliator, was trying to get the board to meet with the negotiators bt most board members work so there was little hope for a settlement before the weekend. Picketing contined at all schools with the teachers, after having said pblicly that they spport the strike, crossing picket lines. a scccasor agreement. "Finally, it is rmored that the negotiated salai-y increase for the second year of the agreement will be calclated on the salary in effect on March 31, There is no basis for sch conclsion. "The agreement clearly indicates that tlie salary increase in the second year of the agreement will be based on the salary in effect on March 31, 1918 as adjsted by any increment for which an employee may be eligible. "2. Concern was expressed that salary increases on promotion wold be negligible becase the negotiated salary increases will not be reflected in the salary schedle. That perceived effect of the negotiated salary increases was dialled qickly throgh the se of examples comparing salary changes, applying the negotiated salary increases, with and withot promotion. Those examples are repeated below. Permanent SG-9 Emiriloyee salary $8,051 pls Increment 362 base for year-one $8,413 increases 5 percent or $ $8, increase 4 percent or $ salary $9,313 pls partial increment 186 base pay for year-two increase $9,499 5 percent or $ $9,999 (Contined on Pa^re 19) Now Is The Time To Change From Option A to B Coverage ALBANY Notice of opportnity to change from Option A to Option B of Grop Term Life Insrance has been given in a notice by Civil Service Employees Assn. insrance committee chairman James Corbin.

5 Dr, Cohen And The State Of Mental Health By JANE BERNSTEIN CIVIL Scrvlce Employees Assn. consltant Jim Cohen is very laid back, hls whole manner nderstated. Bt behind those wire-rimmed glasses and hair prematrely grey for his 35 years, the wheels are trning, and plans are being conjred to combat those who wold see havoc wreaked in the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene.. That havoc presently takes the fotm of a proposal drawn p by Gov. Hgh Carey, which, if passed into law, wold serve to expedite the deinstittionallzation of the state's Mental Hygiene system a move bitterly opposed by the CSEA. And it was the prospect of this move that prompted the CSEA to enlist the services of Dr. Cohen. The psychologist, a 1973 doctoral grtidate of the University of Chicago, has a backgrond in mental health research and policy planning. He worked for the Illinois State Department of Mental Hygiene from 1971 to 1973, then came back to New York to do research for the New York City Department of Mental Hygiene nder Commissioner Jne Christmas. In addition to acting as a consltant for the nion. Dr. Cohen is also on the faclty at Albert Einstein College in the psychiatric and commnity health departments, and is director of a training program for people involved in the hman services, instrcting in how to formlate programs and policies. It was while doing research on deinstittionalization and the concept of commnity mental health care that Dr. Cohen became familiar with the concerns of the CSEA abot the shtdown of large parts of statern instittions. "I heard the nion was interested in coming p with some alternate plans to the Governor's and Legislatre's Ideas on deinstittionalization," he said, "So I called and offered my services to help in formlating those plans." Since mid-janary Dr. Cohen and the CSEA Mental Hygiene Task Force have been working on a report. Their findings and position o n deinstittionalization were made pblic last week, and reflect a concern for not only employees of the state Mental Hygiene Department, bt also for the patients who will be affected by the plans. To nderstand these recommendations, one mst first examine what the Governor's proposal entails. rphe state's plan to transl fer most of the responsibility for mental health care to the local level incldes several facets. The planning power for mental health care facilities will be given to conty mental 1 GOV. HUGH CAREY... fiscal, not clinical concept Charged with determining where priorities are and how money will be spent. And according to Gov. Carey's proposal, state Mental Hygiene administrators mst provide information to the local directors so they can set p their programs, bt state people will play no meaningfl role in the formation of these programs. The only other inpt they will be permitted to have will be to send letters to local Mental Hygiene commissioners if they object to any parts of a locally planned system of care. "The Governor is going to set p this system so that conties also may pll ot of Mental Hygiene care when they want to, if they don't CSEA eonsaltant on deiiistittioiialiiatlon Jim Cohen says the nion mst strive for good workinir conditions for employees and better treatment for patients. like the way it is working ot," Dr. Cohen said. "What exactly is going to become of the patients in these commnities If their programs are plled ot from nder them? These people cannot fend for themselves." CSEA members who work for the Mental Hygiene Department take this view. They agree that the concept behind deinstittionalization is beneficial better care on the commnity level for those from the commnity who have problems bt don't see that it will work if the state relinqishes control and responsibility completely to the conties. "The way the plans are set p right now, the only ones who will benefit from them are the state politicians and the private se<itor," Dr. Cohen said. "Conty directors are lying, saying they'll provide comprehensive services if they are given the power, bt they have different priorities. And as a reslt of them, the state workers and patients will sffer." CSEA attorney Paline Rogers, who is in "legal" charge of the nion's Mental Hygiene affairs, says the present deinstittionaliza - tion proposal is a fiscal, political concept, and not a clinical one. The fear of wholesale dmping of patients into commnities exists among Mental Hygiene workers. THE CSEA Mental Hygiene Task Force, with Dr. Cohen's help, has developed some recommendations that, it hopes, the Governor and state legislators will seriosly consider. The nion is calling for a moratorim on frther transfers of patients from large instittions into smaller commnities ntil Jly This wiu give CSEA and Mental Hygiene workers a chance to plan for facilities for mentally disabled residents of these instittions. It will also give the nion a chance to plan for transfers for employees, who cold lose their jobs as the reslt of frther closings of large instittions. The nion is also recommending that the state retain control of commnitybased facilities, so that comprehensive care may be delivered to patients. Task force members say a complete transfer to local control of mental health care will not cost the state less money. It cold, they.say, cost more in the long rn, while providing less in the way of services. CSEA Has Its Own Ideas Abot Deinstittionalization And, of corse, the nion is asking for a most important garantee that Mental Hygiene workers in state-rn facilities be given protection against the loss of their jobs. Already, evidence of sch loss exists. A job description for a commnity mental health care nrse title reqired that applicants have experience on the commnity level, ths barring state mental health care nrses from applying. The task force sggests shared staffing, where state workers and conty private workers are loaned to private and state facilities; and regional planning, where state and conty administrators get together to plan services, as ways to insre that workers keep their jobs and are tilized to make the delivery of mental health care more effective. "We shold have a sitation sch as exists at the Lancaster Clinic in Bffalo," Dr. Cohen says. "It is staffed entirely by state people, who have an informal agreement with conty-rn services and personnel. They help each other ot, and do what's best for each patient by referring them to the right place." Dr. Cohen will contine to work with the CSEA throgh the smmer, frther developing plans and programs for effective state - controlled, commnity-based care. "This next year mst be a real bilding time for the nion," he said. "We've got to work toward providing the Mental Hygiene membership with decent working conditions, and the state Mental Hygiene patients with decent care. And the entire CSEA membership mst be given the opportnity to learn abot the Isses and problems srronding deinstittionalization of the mental health system In this state." U) n 9 I 3. c» v; 00 s

Sbicripfion Prica: $5.30 to mantbars of tha CiviJ Sarvice Employaas Association. $9.00 to nom-mambers. FRIDAY, MAY 13, 1977 Who Are Negotiators? ^pegotiators are people, too. So who are the negoti-.1 ators responsible for the tentative agreement crrently being voted on by state-employed members of the Civil Service Employees Assn.? To begin with, there are 48 negotiators, divided eqally among the for bargaining nits: 12 each for Administrative, Instittional, Operational and Professional-Scientific- Technical. They are also eqally divided as representatives of each of the CSEA's six regions, with each region sending two negotiators to each of the for teams. Previosly, all negotiators had been appointed by the statewide president of the CSEA. When the nion restrctred itself a few years ago, it was decided that the president wold be given a list of five choices for each of the bargaining team representatives for each region. In some cases, only two names were sbmitted; in other instances, CSEA president Theodore C. Wenzl made the selections from the top two names in order. Ths, each region, one way or the other, had its first choices confirmed. At the region level, the choices were made by election, with members of each region's exective committee taking part in the decision-making. (The regional exective committees are composed of all local presidents within each region.) Ths, while the negotiators were not elected in general membership meetings, they were the choices of those elected officials who are most aware of their qalifications. Most importantly, perhaps, is the fact that the negotiators are state employees, jst like the general membership who mst live within the terms of the agreement they reached with the state. (M.O.B.) The Final Decision IT is evident to readers of Leader editorials that this newspaper tends to give moral spport to the policies of the Civil Service Employees Assn. The fact that the CSEA is, withot dobt, one of the most democratic nions in the world, makes this policy logical, since pblic employees need a voice in the world, too. With all the crises that beset the state and the nation, the day-to-day problems of the civil servants who provide the backbone of government services are often overlooked in the crsh of events. Ths, some folks might wonder what The Leader position is on the ratification now taking place by stateemployed members of the CSEA on the tentative agreement worked ot by the CSEA negotiators and the State. The fact of the matter is that the CSEA has not taken a definite stand on the ratification. That is crrently being decided by the members themselves. The CSEA leadership has labored hard to come p with an nderstanding with the State on the terms of the agreement, and the negotiators have voted to sbmit it to the members for their decision. We await the decision, and will spport the will of the people. (M.O.B.) ^^ (Contlnned from Pa«e 1) ployees from exercising their fll rights of citizenship in the political process, is slowly moving towards the front brner In the legislative process. Last year, after extensive hearings condcted by the Congressional committees on civil service in both the Senate and the Hose of Representatives, Congress finally repealed the law. However, it was promptly vetoed by President Ford. The vote in both Hoses was too close to warrant an attempt to override the veto. The Hatch Law is both paternalistic and patronizing. Its theory Is that the civil service employee mst be protected from political pressre from his spervisors. The Law, Instead of acting on spervisors, simply prohibited civil service employees from participating In any political activity. Ths, nder the law, a civil service employee Is prohibited from being a member or officer of a political clb. He may not participate In the circlation of party nominating petitions. He may not rn as a candidate for election as a delegate to a political convention. These are In addition to other prohibitions of activities, in which other citizens are free to participate. Initially, the law applied also to all state and mnicipal employees whose salaries were paid in whole or in part by Federal fnds. This provision barred political activities by employees of social welfare departments, hosing agencies, and a large nmber of other state and mnicipal departments. In addition, as in the corse of years, the Federal government extended its activities into many other areas of operation, increasing nmbers of state and local government employees who came within the ban of the Hatch Act. Two years ago, Congress amended the Hatch Act to make it no longer applicable to sch state and local government employees. Nothing happened as a reslt of that modification to jstify contination of the Hatch Law to Federal employees. The fact is that no civil servant has been forced to make political contribtions against his will, and none has been forced to participate In political activities. On the other hand, that modification did permit any sch employees who cared to participate, to engage in political activities to the same degree as other citizens. The drlv4 for a total repeal of the Hatch Law is being led by Congressman Edward I. Koch of Manhattan, Congressman John M. Mrphy of Staten Island, and Congressman Stephen Solarz of Brooklyn. The prospects are high that Congress will again approve a repeal of the Hatch Act. The major difference this time is the fact that President Jimmy Carter is committed to approving Its repeal. In view of extensive hearings already held on the sbject last year, progress of the repeal legislation throgh both Hoses of Congress shold be relatively smooth and easy. It appears that, at long last, after 40 years of nnecessary restraints pon the political freedom of civil service employees, the Hatch Act will finally be repealed.

Gilt Annled In Unfair Hearing In an article 78 proceeding, transferred to the Appellate Division, Third Department, to review a disciplinary proceeding, the determination of gilt was annlled and the matter was remitted for frther proceedings. The petitioner (employee) in this case served in a permanent position as associate personnel administrator of the Wilton Developmental Center, which is a facility of the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene. He was served with written charges of incompetence and miscondct nder Section 75 of the Civil Service Law. Following a hearing, the hearing officer recommended a finding of gilty and a redction in grade from grade 23 to senior personnel administrator grade 18, or some other sitable position at the grade 18 level. The director of WDC agreed with the hearing officer and adopted his recommendations. PETITIONER CONTENDED that he did not receive a fair hearing, that there was not sbstaritial evidence and that he was denied de process. The cort addressed each of these argments. As to the qestion of a fair hearing, petitioner claimed that since the hearing officer was a depty director of another facility in the Department of Mental Hygiene, he was personally acqainted with some of the parties involved in the proceeding. The hearing officer was properly designated in accordance with Sec. 75(a) of the Civil Service Law, and there is no Indication that he had any vital Information concerning the charges against petitioner that wold reqire him to disqalify himself. However, petitioner was not accorded a fair hearing in that there was commnication after the hearing between the hearing officer and the person prosecting the charges. These commnications Inclded discssions of evidence that had been addced at the hearing and also related to matters on which the hearing officer wanted additional information. THE COURT POINTED ot that in an administrative hearing held prsant to Section 75 of the Civil Service Law, it is not necessary to comply strictly with the rles of evidence. It was clearly improper for an administrative agency to base its decision pon matters otside the record. "The evil lies in the fact that petitioner was not afforded an opportnity to explain or refte any of the information frnished to the hearing officer after the conclsion of the hearing in violation of the very concept of a trial. This is tre regardless of respondent's attempts to minimize the effect sch commnications may have had on his finding of gilt or on the penalty Imposed." In view of the cort's conclsion, it was held nnecessary to consider petitioner's contention that the finding of gilt was based pon insfficient evidence in the record. In the matter of Veil Avery v.

7 W h a t ' s Y o r O p i n i o n By PAMELA CRAIG QUESTION Do yo /ee/ that yor views were repreaented at the recent Civil Service Employees Aasn. statewide convention; or do yo feel that the delegates were speaking for themselves? THE PLACE 7th Regiment Armory, Manhattan Bert Cass, maintenance man: "I do feel that the delegates represent the members bt we are sch a small grop that we do not get the representation we deserve. When yo have a large local, yo get better representation and the nion Is responsive to yor individal needs. We are so small that we cannot even strike if we want to. I feel the delegates represent their constitents becase they are elected to the position by the grop and if they are not representing the members, then it's the members' falt, not the delegates' falt." James Glover, mechanic: "I feel that the delegates represent the people. I feel wt. all need the same legal and financial rewards. If they fight for a raise for themselves, then we will get a raise. What's good for them is sally good for s, too. There may be a few who seek higher offices within the imion and may se the position to advance themselves politically. Bt if they spend time working for the best interest of all, then I feel that most delegates will do a good Job." OPINIONS Joel Berman, armory maintenance man: "I feel that a lot of the delegates speak primarily for themselves becase they talk abot the same topics every year and they fight like cats instead of like people. They are there to get something ot of it bt as long as they fight back and forth, they are not going to get anything. I was at the last convention and I saw what went on and I felt it was at times ridiclos." Thomas Maher, assistant sperintendent: "I think the delegates have been speaking more for themselves than the members. I feel the indlvldals' needs are forgotten once the delegate gets to" the convention. I feel often the delegate represents himself and his needs and not always for the right reasons. The armory employees are always in a shadow and we do not get the psh that we deserve. This leads me to believe that the representatives are failing in their dties." LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vet Benefits Editor, the Leader: To be deemed a veteran and receive appropriate Civil Service benefits, an individal mst have been a resident of New York State at the time of entry into and discharge from the Armed Forces. CSEA members who meet all of the veteran eligibility reqirements. except that of residency, will not profit from any of the veteran bills CSEA is crrently favoring. I rge CSEA to soport Assembly BiUs No. 6138, No and No which eliminate the residence reqirement for veteran stats. If instead of residency, race, religion or sex were the discriminatory factors this isse wold have been resolved long ago. Charles Matkowski Elnora Retiree's Plight Editor, the Leader: In the April 29 Isse of the Civil Service Leader, the writer remarked In an editorial that state employees' wages are sapped by Inflation. What abot retired employees? They seem to be the "forgotten species." withot a cost-of-living increase for three ^ years. No one seems to care for s, the scapegoats. If yor paper mentioned the fact, the Legislatre and the Governor wold, perhaps, pay greater attention to the retirees' pught. I was with the Department of Labor for over 30 years and I retired in I speak, however, not only for myself bt for all those who retired before and after me. Catherine L. O'Connell Syracse Maximm Life Editor, the Leader: In a recent isae of The Leader, dated Friday, April 29. yo stated that an open competitive exam for Correction Officer Male will probably be given sometime dring the next fiscal year. As an eligible on the last Fll Employmtnt Is TH* K«y TQ Prosperity. By U.S, Mod* Prodcts Edward DeSosa, sperintendent: "I do feel that the delegates have performed their job well and I strongly feel that they shold meet more often to express or views and actions. As far as the past conventions of the CSEA, I strongly feel the representation by the delegates has been of the highest caliber. I feel great effort has been made by the delegates to bring to the floor the pressing problems affecting their constitents." Leroy Peterson, maintenance man: "I feel that the delegates did not represent the Armory employees well enogh at the convention for s to get to become a separate bargaining nit. We are the only military employees. I feel that the delegates might represent some of the nits bt I do not feel that they represent the Armory employees. I do feel that the ^ M on the whole represent the state workers." Correction Officer exam, given March I feel this is very nfair. The list for this exam was not established ntil May therefore with the maximm life of for years allowed nder Civil Service Law. this list can be sed ntil May Considering the time and effort many of these eligibles. inclding myself, pt into stdying for this exam. I believe it is only fair that this list be tilized. Thogh New York City has rebonded somewhat from its fiscal problems, the nmber of Correction Officer appointments will still be limited. It is therefore essential that a candidate for this position achieve a very high score to have any hope of being appointed. Those eligibles that scored exceedingly well on the last exam may not possibly fare afl well on another, and ths may lose an opportnity for a career in civil service. Another point is that it wold be fiscally more feasible for the city to se the existing list, than to brden itself with the cost of condcting another exam.

The disadvantage of not owning a home works in several ways. Homeowning is a tax shelter for many people. The only practical sggestion offered is boosting retirement fnds by se of the IRA Plan. Medicare has been a great boon to people over 65, bt. becase it is there, many people feel they need no additional coverage beyond the A and B policies offered by the Government. Experience seems to indicate that Medicare will cover only 35 percent of all medical bills for older persons. It does not cover most of the bills beyond 90 days of hospitalization. Bt more important. it does not cover mch of the doctor bills even dring the first 90 days. For example, it pays a specified fee for each type of medical care, bt many doctors will not accept this amoimt as their fee. Medicare does not cover private dty nrsing either in or ot of the hospital, and only some of the nrsing care at home. Additional coverage is available. If yo are now covered, it is important to stay with a company that will garantee renewability for life and with annal premims that will not skyrocket as yo age. Medicare does not cover spose, for example, ntil she reaches the age of 65. Some policies become invalid if yo have other similar policies even thogh yor bills exceed the coverage on any one.

8 ph efi es S es!2 'Z Si ^ > ec cn > C The standing insrance committee report was presented by chairman James Corbln, of Sffolk Conty Local 852, at the CSEA spring convention at the Concord Hotel in March. Other committee members are Mary Converse, Evelyn Glenn, Carl Garrand, Carl Behr, Patricia Crandall, Hgh Crapser, Joseph Aiello and Pal Satz. Or Committee held two meetings since the Annal Delegate Meeting last October. To assre the protection of the best Interests of CSEA members who participate in the CSEA insrance programs, or Committee ^discssed the stats and any existing problems concerning these programs in order to recommend appropriate action. GROUP LIFE INSURANCE Or Committee recommendations, as approved by the delegates last October, - to make available to female members the same amonts of insrance as to males, were carried throgh. As schedled, on Janary 1, 1977, the letter to all members insred nder the plan was mailed. It^ advised that Option "A" amonts of insrance (those amonts issed to males) wold be issed to all members effective May 1, 1977, except those who sent to CSEA by March 1, 1977, the card reqesting Option "B," which are lower amonts. Special notices to insred members were printed in all weekly isses of the Civil Service Leader dring Janary and Febrary rging attention to or Janary 1 letter and rging any member who desired the lower amont of insrance to fill ot and retrn the card reqesting Option "B" nder the plan by March 1. Ten thosand special blletins were sent in the first weeks of Janary to State and local government chapters and nits, for posting, to rge the same action by insred members who desired the lower Option "B" amonts of insrance effective May 1, On the date this report is written, approximately 3,400 members have reqested the lower Option "B" amonts of insrance, abot 3,050 females and 355 males. Some members did not nderstand or Janary 1 letter and called or Albany Headqarters and regional offices. Or staff answered their qestions. Letters on the matter received by Headqarters, regional offices and by or Committee were answered. " Some male members advised Headqarters that they sent in reqests for Option "B" coverage withot realizing that it wold redce their amonts of insrance effective May 1, 1977, so a clarifying letter was sent to all males who reqested Option "B" and as a reslt, over one third of the males who reqested Option "B" voided sch reqests by written reqest to CSEA Headqarters. Or Committee is gratified by the role it has played in making available to women insred nder the plan the same amonts of insrance issed to men, and to provide the additional insrance on May 1, 1977, withot reference to medical history. Those who reqest Option "B" effective May 1, and sbseqently in a ftre year reqest the higher Option "A" coverage, will at sch time be reqired to frnish evidence of insrability satisfactory to the Insrance Company. Oi Committee feels that everything passible was done to catlpn or members Insred nder the Grop Life Insrance Plan to retrn their reqests for Option "B" coverage by March 1, 1977, if they desired the lower amonts of in-.srance provided nder sch Option, Members who applied for Grop Life Insrance since Janary 1, 1977, ixave received with their Insrance Certificate a copy of the form letter sent to all insred members on Janary 1 as well as the card for them to send to CSEA by March 1 if they desired the lower Option "B" coverage, effective May 1, Revised Grop Life Insrance applications and explanatory literatre are being printed as this report is written. ThLs material will be sent to all chapters and nits and will also be available from Headqarters and regional offices. Ftre applicants for the Grop Life Insrance will have their choice between Option "A" and "B" insrance amonts available in their particlar salary bracket. It is important to remind members who apply for the insrance to be sre to designate on their application Option "A" or "B" in the space provided in the new revised application form to be distribted as soon as printed, to prevent delay in processing of the application. The changes contained in the pdated insrance certificate sent to all members in the plan with or letter of Janary 1, 1977, inclding the new Option "A" and "B" arrangement, were approved, of corse, by the State Insrance Department prior to the Janary 1 mailing. The loss experience nder the plan has improved dring the recent months. It is hoped ijhat the additional coverage issed May 1, 1977, nder the new Option "A" and "B" arrangement will frther improve loss experience, in spite of issance of additional coverage to thosands of members insred effective May 1, 1977, withot reqiring evidence of insrability. Throgh a mail campaign and combined efforts of the insrance Walter Weeks, president of the CSEA's largest i>n-teachin«r school employees local, Sffolk Edcational Local 870, looks over report dring delegate discssion. company and agency representatives 8,900 new applications for the plan were prodced dring the last year, of which 40 percent represented new members. It will be necessary to secre 10 percent additional enrollment each year, or abot 9,000 applications, to offset attrition and achieve modest growth. ACCIDENT AND SICKNESS INSURANCE In accordance with or Committee report to the delegates at the last October meeting, or insrance agency is working closely with the Tiavelers Insrance Company to develop the changes to the A&H Plan ordered by the State Insrance Department, which, last year, when it approved a 20 percent premim rate increase nder the plan effective Jly 1, 1976, mandated that it had to be frther amended effective Jly 1, 1977, to charge premim rates therender that wold reflect loss experience based on age and sex. Sbseqently the Insrance Department agreed to delay the implementation of the revised plan from Jly 1, to November 1, Stdy of the changes necessary, as ordered by the State Insrance Department. has reslted in the Travelers Insrance Company advising CSEA and its agency, Ter Bsh & Powell, Inc., that the majority of members insred nder the plan wold have their perimm rates redced, bt those, in the higher ages wold have their premim costs increased. The revised plan wold provide that abot every ten years, after age 30 or so, as policyholders get older, their premim rates wold atomatically be increased. The premim rates wold be based on loss experience in each groping, on women and men, each as separate grops. There is a statement dated Febrary 11, 1977, prepared by the Travelers Insrance Company which was sbmitted to or Insrance Committee. The varios exhibits contained in that statement indicate the percent rate change in the varios age gropings for males and females. The exhibits also show the percentage of insred members in the varios age gropings, broken down between males and females, as well as the ratio of female rates to male rates as permitted by the State Insrance Department, and the ratios in effect in the exhibits also indicate the crrent and revised rates for males and females nder Plan I and Plan II of the Accident and Health Insrance Plan showing the grop nder age 30 and over age 59, to illstrate the smallest and the largest change. There is also a schedle which shows the new rates nder the revised plan filed by the Travelers Insrance Company with the State Insrance Department for that agency's approval. These new rates are in accordance with the gidelines issed by the State Insrance Department. Or members mst remember that the prpose of the revised plan, as ordered by the State Insrance Department, Is to pt into effect more eqitable premim rates for males and females to reflect loss experience (benefits paid) to the males and females as grops, in the varios age gropings. SUPPLEMENTAL LIFE INSURANCE PLAN This plan contines to grow and loss experience therender contines to be satisfactory. Abot 25,000 CSEA members are insred nder this plan, with abot 4,500 added dring the last year. A dividend will be paid to policy holdeis nder this plan. The dividend checks will be mailed abot March 1. The dividend will be 15 percent of permims paid from November 1, 1975, to October 31, 1976, to policyholders nder age 45; 10 percent for those ages 45 to 49; and 5 percent for those over age 50. The dividend is possible de to contined growth of the plan and satisfactory loss experience therender. Abot 16,000 will receive a dividend check;. the dividend is payable for coverage in effect for the entire policy year ending October 31, CSEA MASTER PLAN AUTO/ HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE The past year lias seen many changes in this program. The constantly rising prices for atomobile repairs, the cpntinally monting expense for medical care, and the impact of no-falt have all contribted to an over-all loss ratio which has shown no significant improvement dring the past 12 months. As a reslt, the nderwriting company, Travelers Indemnity Company of America, will contine to practice the techniqes employed dring These inclde: 1. Accepting only applications from members employed where payroll dedction ifi available. 2. Accepting only members who have clear driving records, in the case of atomobile, or who have modern hosing insred to vale in the case of homeowners. 3. Travelers will effect a rate increase of approximately 17 percent applying to atomobile coverages on April 1, (All atomobile policyholders have been notified of this increase.) It is anticipated these measres will enable the company to maintain Master- Plan at its crrent level and, hopeflly, the loss ratio will improve. Dring mid 1977, a proposed change in the rating strctre to a mltiple pricing program will allow the company a greater degree of flexibility in the applying of proper rate levels to individal exposres. This in trn shold help CSEA MasterPlan to contine to move in the right direction.

Civil Service Employees Assn. Jdiciary Representative Ethel Ross said the matter is p in the air since former local cort employees are still, in some cases, fnctioning nder the terms of their old contracts negotiated on the conty level. "The pictre is very confsing at this point," Ms. Ross said. "They might get the increase, and then again they might not. We are waiting to see if the pact is ratified, then we'll make or move."

KENNETH CADIEUX William McGowan "Bill McGowan doesn't always say the poplar thing, bt he never fails to say what he believes is the trthfl thing." So said a spporter two years ago when William L. McGowan was the sccessfl candidate for exective vice-president of the CSEA. The description remains completely appropriate today as the 52-year-old straight-talking electronics mechanic, on paid leave from the State Mental Hygiene Department's West Seneca Developmental Center in Erie Conty, campaigns for president of or statewide organization. "When I was elected exective vice-president, I had no Intention to se it as a stepping stone to the presidency," Mr. McGowan said recently in a letter to members of the Statewide Board of Directors. "On the contrary, I had hoped that In the nmber 2 position, I might help correct many of the problems of the CSEA which I had had the opportnity to observe while serving In varios official capacities earlier In my career. "Instead, I have experienced sch complete and tter frstration that I conceive It to be my dty and responsibility to seek the presidency in order to restore leadership and direction to or nion." WILLIAM L. McGOWAN McGowan knows something abot dty and responsibility In the CSEA, having occpied Increasingly important positions in the organization dring the past 16 years. He has been president of Western Region VI, forth vice-president of statewide CSEA and a member of the Board of Directors representing the Mental Hygiene Department.

He was chairman for five years of Mental Hygiene's negotiating team and has also been chairman of Mental Hygiene's labor-management committee. Mr. McGowan views the re-establlshment of leadership as a primary plank In the platform on which he Is standing for election. "Bt I say, as I've said many times before, that we need to open and keep open the lines of commnication among all the membership so that everybody can be Informed of or problems and can help In arriving at their soltion.

I am for fll agency shop and the right to strike. There shold be lesser penalties on the workers, and penalties on the employer shold be spelled ot so that they are eqivalent in hardship to those imposed on the employees. Among other things, I will make every effort to speed-p the establishment of meaningfl career ladders, to get real affirmative action, to stop the breaking down and contracting ot of Mental Hygiene Department services, to stop the crtailing of the Drg Abse Program, to center the OSHA Program back in the state, and to gard against the CETA program eroding the Merit System provisions for present employees. Finally, I have always been and will contine to lead this nion In having meaningfl rank-and-file Involvement In all of Its affairs.
