A heavy emphasis on the facts, inclding the recommendations of two ot of three members of a fact-finding panel that a 6.6 percent pay increase is jstified, will be stressed. he CSEA has prepared statistical data, research and graphs to make the points clear pls expert testimony for presentation before the Board of Spervisors. "he facts of the case are overwhelming," asserted Irving Flamenbam, president of the 23,000-member chapter. he action came following a pre-hearing conference between r. Flamenbam, who is also a CSEA vice-president and head of the nion's Long Island Region I, and members of the board. he private conference had been arranged pending the setting of a date for a formal hearing. he legislative determination of an imposed contract was the final stage prescribed by the aylor Law following the collapse of efforts to negotiate a contract with the administration of Conty Exective Ralph G. Caso. r. Caso had steadfastly refsed to bargain throghot 10 months of negotiations and ignored the majority findings of the fact-finding panel that a cost-of-living pay Increase was the minimm that shold be granted.

Flamenbam had earlier exposed the fact that the conty's financial bind is attribtable to capital spending and other projects, rather than payroll costs. he CSEA has advised both the fact-finders and the Board of Spervisors that payroll costs have been rnning below the bdgeted amont. r. Caso has claimed that the conty faces a deficit of $22 million. "It has been shown to the satisfaction of the majority of fact-finders that the conty's financial problems are not attribtable to payroll," r. Flamenbam declared. "he Board of Spervisors is on the spot to determine whether it will go along with the conty exective's idea of making p his deficit spending by depriving the employees of their rightfl pay." he chtt)ter has planned a stepped-p political action role to be determined by the otcome of the legislative hearing. ri-conty Retiree Chapter ill eet IDDLEON A meeting of the Orange, Ulster and Sllivan Conties Retiree chapter.

Other officers are Jeanne Arnold, Alex Seeley, Beth Anwright, Diane Hoge, Anne Jamison, Rosemary Koppel and Barbara Farrow. onroe Is Seeking Arbitrator (Contined from Page 1) conty agrees, he said, an arbitrator cold be named in abot 10 days to begin hearings. "I expect the conty will agree to this," r. Koenig said. He sent a letter reqesting the arbitration to Carl Krase, attorney representing the conty, and said he expects an answer in a few days. he onroe Conty Legislatre has ordered conty employees to take two-week npaid frloghs to make p for a bdget gap. he CSEA got a cort order last week that has temporarily blocked the frlogh plan. he cort order gives the CSEA breathing time to try to settle the dispte throgh a grievance procedre provided in its contract with the conty and throgh a separate arbitration procedre with the Pblic Employment Relations Board. "It's a three-pronged approach to the sitation," r. Koenig said. If the cort order did not prevent frloghs, employees might lose two weeks of pay and be nable to recover it later, he said. r. Koenig said he filed a reqest for arbitration hearings last week with the state board bt has not received a reply yet. he case can be arbitrated both by the state board and throgh the CSEA's contract with the conty. If either or both of those arbitrators find the conty can legally impose frloghs, r. Koenig said the CSEA will again go to cort to appeal those decisions. he CSEA's lawyer, James Hancock, and r. Krase arged in State Spreme Cort abot the validity of the present cort case. r. Hancock said the cort does have jrisdiction to isse restraining orders and injnctions ntil the conty can prove its frlogh plan is legal.

Jstice agner allowed lawyers for the conty and- the CSEA 10 more bsiness days to file papers before he makes a decision. Jstice agner said he will wait ntil r. Hancock provides more information abot the cort's jrisdiction on the case before issing a decision. he jdge qestioned r. Ki'ase closely abot the conty's claim that employees won't be "irreparably harmed" by the frloghs. "How can yo say that when yo've got all these conty employees losing pay for two weeks?" Jstice agner asked. r. Krase arged that any damages that can be compensated monetarily aren't irreparable. If the arbitrators agreed the frloghs were illegal, they cold order the conty to pay back frloghed employees. "Bt look at what yo're doing to the poor people," Jstice agner responded. "his is really termination of employment and rehiring after two weeks... there is nothing in the Civil Service law abot frloghs." Roswell Entryway Closed; CSEA Alleges 'Retaliation' BUFFALO Charging harassment in retaliation for a Civil Service Employees Assn. cort sit that was filed seeking to overtrn Gov. Hgh L. Carey's Exective Order 10, Robert. Stelley, president of the Roswell Park emorial Hospital CSEA chapter said the nion hias placed a grievance over the closing of the High Street entrance to the cancer rese-arch and treatment centei-. "It make«5 no sense to stop people sing the High Street doors in the name of secrity when a secrity gard stands thei-e," r. Stelley said. he Governor's exective order demanded that state employees earning more than $,- 000 a year, or those holding policy-milking fnctions, file statements annally desciiiibing the amonts and circmstances of any otside income. he CSEA is qestioning the order's legality in the corts. A nxnber of mental health prnfessionals at state psychiatric and developmental centers are also laffected. Inconvenienced most by the entrance sht-down are employees who came to work by bs and patients and visitors who rely on pblic transportation or who stay at motels at ain ijnd High Streets, r. Stelley said. Doctors and other med- ' ical personnel who se the rote to Bffalo General Hospital, with an entrance directly acix)ss High Street, are similarly affected. "his is not the safest area of the city or there wold be no need for the hospital secrity patrols in the area," r. Stelley contined. "Exposing pla,tients, visitors and or employees to additional risks and then refsing even to discss the sitation stinks." r. Stelley said he has asked Bffalo fire officials to check the effects of the door closing on fire safety in the seven-story bilding. It hoses several cancer clinics and has a storlage area for volatile liqids. hile he said he feels that the hospital administration was retaliating for the CSEA's sit which enjoined the Governor from reqiring the financial disclosre r. Stelley said the move might also be designed to promote the se of a newly opened parking ramp that employees previosly disdained in favor of neighborhood pai-kiiig. he parking ramp is closer to the Elm Street entrance than to the closed High Street doors.

Earl Bivins, Sllivan chaptei" president, expressed thanks to the employees for theii- vote of confidence.

Shapiro, was presented with two signlfleant Isses to decide. hey were, first, whether arbitration which was provided for in a contract was advisory or binding, and, second, whether to.sstain or reject a past practice even thogh the contract did not contain a piast practice clase. he case began as a reslt of the conty's alleged failre to treat an employee who was promoted to a new Fositioin in the same way it treated an employee who transferred to a position in the same step level and time in grade sitation. he CSEA arren Conty chapter, assisted by CSEA field representatives Aaron agner and ichael hite, proceeded to follow the grievance procedre in the existing docinent. Unable to resolve nion-conty differences. they moved to sbmit the dispte to arbitration again in accordance with the contrtact. he conty and the CSEA then chose an arbitrator from a list provided by the AAA. he conty later added another isse to the case by qestioning if arbitration In the contract was advisory or binding. Basing his decision on the langage of the contract, the legal definition of the word, the arbitrator fond that nless the conty held in fll or in part the right to reject the awards of arbitrators in the contract, it was completely bond by the arbitrators' decisions. On the second isse, the arbitrator fond, after a review of lall previos contract negotiations and testimony of varios conty employees, that the conty normally treated promotions the same^ as transfers in regard to step and time in grade. he arbitrator fond also that the employees assmed that the conty wold contine to treat this sitation as similar. r. Shapiro then" issed his decision stating "throgh the pixkess of collective negotiations they (the employees) seek to improve their terms and conditions of employment, as they see sch. "he conditions with which they are satisfied, they do not endeavor to change and natrally desire to be contined. he demands sbmitted for negotiations deal with facets of the job with which they are discontent. he docment which reslts from the negotiated settlement does not, in many Instances set forth all of the working conditions and benefits which prevailed prior to the instittion of the new relationship of collective as against individal 'bargaining' and which it is mtally assmed will endre.

Peraca alleges that after libeling him, the own Board fired him from the police department withot a hearing. James J. Lennon, president of the Civil Service Employees Assn.'s Sothern Region in, has gone on record defending Feraca's sit. "r. Peraca has an impecdaible record of good citizenship," the CSEA official declared. "In addition to his 17 years' experience on the force, he is a leadier in the commnity and is widely admired by the people In this area. It seems awflly sspicios that he was sddenly thrown off the force with no explanlatlon to the pblic even thogh an explanation was demanded." r. Peraca is president of the CSEA nit in the Kingston City Consolidated Schools and is head of secrity at Kingston High KEEP RADIION School. "he own Board mysteriosly appoints every single incmbent on the police force with the exception of r. Peraca," r. Lennon contined. "hat ai-e they trying to hide? hy lare they afraid of Joe Feraca?" r. Lennon asked. "he CSEA is prod to join the citizens of Ulster Conty In demanding r. Peraca's reinstatement, especially since the own Board refses to reveal the reason why they refsed to reappoint him," r. Lennon added. "It's abot time the Board stopped regarding town government as their private clbhose." hile on the town police force, r. Peraca helped to fond the Ulster Conty Oonstiables Assn.

S9.00 to non-members. FRIDAY, JULY., 1976 = Congratlations, CSEA ^O rphere is the venerable story of the man who, while bang- 1 ing his head into a brick wall, was observed by a friend. Asked why he was pnishing himself so, the man replied, "Becase it feels so good when I stop." he story came to mind~^hen we received news of the back-to-back victories scored last week by the Civil Service Employees Assn. in employee representation elections against the Service Employees International Union, AFL- CIO. he victories, both by appreciable margins, were notched in Sllivan Conty and the New York State hrway Athority. Hearty congratlations, of corse, are de to both CSEA staffers and members whose hard and dedicated work was responsible for the wins. hey are the latest in a long series of CSEA victories over the hapless SEIU. he latter nion seems to take what has to be an almost masochistic relish in bringing abot representation elections and then getting sondly tronced when it comes time to cont the ballots. Perhaps, like the man and his brick wall, SEIU feels good when the balloting stops. Bt the most recent election reslts simply reinforce the old political axiom yo can't beat somebody with nobody. It is abndantly clear that CSEIA is somebody. One element in the hrway-.election gave s pase, however. SEIU polled less than percent of the votes cast. hen percent of a given nion entity sign a petition for a rival nion, the Pblic Employment Relations Board is obliged to call an election. any times, people sign petitions reqesting an election to oblige a friend or to shake p the leadership of his or her own nion while intending to vote for the incmbent representative. e feel this is essentially non-prodctive. hile it is Rood to oblige a friend or fn to shake p nion leadership, representation elections are costly affairs in terms of time, effort and money. he time, effort and money expended cold be sed far more effectively in negotiating new contracts with better pay and working conditions. Bt it was a good week for CSEA. And we wonder when SEIU will get tired of hitting its head against a brick wall. (C.O'N.) lllllllllllllllllllllllllllltlllllllllllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll^ I Qestions & Answers Q. y father is 65 and doesn't have enogrh social secrity work credits to set edicare hospital insrance. Is there any other way he can qalify for this protection? A. He can get hospital insrance by paying a monthly premim of $ (effective for the 12 months starting Jly 1976). He also mst sign p for medical insrance and pay the additional premim of $7.20 a month. Yor father shold call, write, or visit any social secrity office for more information if he's Interested. Q. y hsband died recently and even thogh I am over 50, I had to go back to work to spport myself. A month ago I was Involved In an atomobile accident, and now it looks as if I won't be able to go back to work for a long time. I don't know if ve worked long enogh nder social secrity to get benefits on my own record, bt what abot my hsband's? He worked for many years. A. hen yo contact yoi' social secrity office the people there will take an application to determine if yo are eligible for disability benefits on yor own work record or on yor hsband's. A disabled widow may qalify for disability benefits as early as age 50 if she becomes disabled within 7 years after the death of her hsband. Generally yo mst be severely disabled and not be expected to be able to work for a year or more. Don't Repeat liis! (Contined from Page 1) ing the delegates an opportnity to reach a free and independent decision abot the candidate for Vice President from, among the six prospects who, C?ovemor Charter had tannoxmced, he had nder active consideration. his in no way reflects pon the qahtics of Senator alter ondale, who might well have been the choice of the delegates had they enjoyed the opportnity to act pon the nomination for themselves. In some sbtle respects that wold have made the Semator a more powerfl candidate. Dramatic Changes here is a lesson here that the Repblicans might bear in mind when their convention meets in Kansas City in the middle of Agst. Obviosly both Pipsidsnt Gerald Ford and Gov. Ronald Reagan have given some thoghts abot n rnning mate. Indeed, President Ford, who seems clearly to be the more likely nominee, has pblicly annoncad that he has several persons in mind for the Vice Presidential nomination. From a political, governmental and pblic relations point of view, whoever the Repblican nominee might be, he wold do well to permit the delegates to exercise free choice in the selection of a rnning mate, from b, list pi-oposed by the candidate for President. he notion that the candidate for President shold on his own determine his rnning mate is archaic, obsolete and fails to accont for the dramatic changes that have tiaken place in the selection of delegates to the nominating conventions. here was a time not too long ago when delegates to nominating conventions were handpicked by the professionals the bosses, if yo prefer a pejorative term. he selection of the candidate for President was the prodct largely of deals miade in smoke-filled rooms by the political leadei-s. For example, in when Franklin D. Roosevelt was first nominated, the Democrats reqired a two-thirds vote of the delegates for the nomination. his was desl'gned to give the so-called solid Soth a veto power over the nomination. Primaries Under the drcmstaaices, Roosevelt's dampaign manager, the late James A. Parley, entered into a deal with Sothern delegations nder which Hose Speaker John Nance Garner of exas was nominated for Vice President. However, political times have changed. Dring the present year delegates to the conventions were selected in primaries In ^ome st'ites, more primaries than we ever had before. hese open primaries have sbstantially crbed the power of the political leaders to dictate to their delegations. his is the circmstance that has cased both President Ford and (3overnor Reagan to dli-ect pei-sonal appeals for spport to individal delegates as against party leaders. Adlai Stevenson was sensitive to the changing poutical winds when, in 1956, he threw open to the convention the freedom to nominate the Vice President. (Contined on P»ve 7) 'AGAIN? BU I JUS GO ROUGH CLEANING Civil Service Law & Yo By tichard GABA r. Gaba is a member at the firm of hite, alsh and Oaba, P.C., and chairman at the Nmm Conty Bar Asaoeiation Labor Law Committee. Bargaining Complications In a recent decision, the Spreme Cort, Rensselaer Conty, was faced with the isse of whether an expired colleotive bargaining agreement between a Schooi District and the eachers Assn. contined in force ntil a sccessor agreement between the parties was exected. * «* IS CASE AROSE when the School District made an application prsant to Section 7503(b) of the Civil Practice Law and Rles to stay arbitration of grievances on the grond that a valid agreement to arbitrate did not exist. he School District arged that the eachers Assn. had no right to arbitration becase the agreement providing that right had expired. he rationale of the District's position was that the contract remained in effect ntil Jne, 1975, and this contract contained no provision for an atomatic extension of its terms. herefore, when the contract that provided the eachers Assn. with the right to arbitration expired, the teachers no longer had the right to arbitration. Relying on the holding of Board of Edcation of Connetqot Central School District No. 7 v. Connetqot eachers Assn., the eachers Assn. arged that the terms of the expired agreement remained in effect ntil a sccessor agreement was exected. herefore, the eachers Assn. conclded that they still had the right to bring a grievance to arbitration becase the old contract granted them that right. * if 0 IN IS DECISION, the cort granted the stay of arbitration of grievances, thereby conclding that the terms of an expired collective bargaining agreement do not contine ntil the exection of a new agreement. he rationale of the cort is as follows: he cort stated that it wold be grossly nfair to the School Dfttrict at the negotiations of the new agreement to bind the District to the terms of the expired agreement. he cort conclded that binding the School District to the expired terms wold presppose that the eachers Assn. cold negotiate an agreement that wold provide its members with salary and benefits that were eqal to or better than those of the prior agreement. In the words of the cort, "he Assn. wold be locked into a garanteed gain position, and the employers in an assred losing stance." E COUR ALSO examined the aylor Law to determine whether there were any specific provisions of the law which stated that the terms of an expired collective bargaining agreement contine ntil a new agreement is reached. Unable to find a provision that extended the terms of an expired agreement, the cort conclded that "if the Legislatre had been seeking this reslt, presmably direct langage wold have been employed." hs, based on an attempt to keep the parties on eqal footing at the negotiation of the new agreement, and absent langage in the aylor Law stating that the terms of an expired agreement contine ntil a new agreement is reached, the cort held that the expired agreement did not contine ntil the new agreement was exected Belts v. eachers Assn., 92 LRR 3132, April 15, 1976.

7 hat's Yor Opinion By PAELA CRAIG QUESION ISetv York City Emergency Financial Control Board says all wage increases for city workers mst be tied to increased prodctivity. hat do yo think? heresa homas, school principal: "I, like a great many of the workers who are left, who tend to be oldtimers, feel that as far as I'm concerned, have always prodced. he majority of city workers are prodcing p to their tmost. here is no dobt that we are working p to or optimm and deserve whatever we can get when it's possible to get a raise. One reslt that I see is the old-timers, who have been doing good jobs right along, now think that becase of the redctions in staff, and becase they're expected to prodce twice as mch, are for the first time thinking strongly of leaving the system. Yo're going to lose yor good, oldtime, hard workers becase they can't prodce any more than they've always prodced; they're getting pretty exhasted. Harry Silver, aditor: "It depends pon the job a person has. Some jobs can be measred in prodctivity, bt it may be difficlt to measi-e prodctivity in other jobs. hat's why the problem has to be stdied. Yo can't jst make an overall, across-the-board determination that people mst prodce more to get more. his isn't fair in certain positions where brain power is the important thing, not how mch yo are prodcing. Yo might take twice as long to come ot with something, bt the reslts may be far better than those someone does qickly and which have no meaning or real reslts. Officials jst can't say everyone mst prodce more to get an increase. hat's not really fair. It has to be selective." E PLACE city Hall Park, anhattan Andrew Zber. small bsiness specialist: "he qality of work shold be improved that's increased prodctivity. anagement shold find ways within itself to ct ot dplication of effort. Better spervision in giding the workers to what is essential and what isn't essential. Right now they are doing away with one step of the management process; in many bsinesses they fond ot is wasn't really necessary. I feel better prodctivity lies with management getting their dcks in a row, ctting ot some of the nnecessary work and getting it down to where the worker can do meaningfl work." OPINIONS arilyn Golb. administrative assistant: "hat raises the big qestion of how is prodctivity measred and by whom? Adeqate job descriptions will then become very important to both employees and employers. Ls qality going to be sacrificed for the qantity of work? I feel there shold be specific job descriptions for each civil service job and the civil servant shold be responsible for that specific job description. Spervisors shold be responsible for seeing that the employees are working p to capacity and a higher sperintendent shold check that the spervisors are being fair. hat abot the qestion of increased responsibility withot increased pay? hat's the beginning of increased prodctivity." Gy arkin, compter programer: "Yes, I think that shold be a reqirement. If employees expect to get more money and, with the financial troble that the city is in right now, they shold have their pay raises tied to an increase in prodctivity. If they can find a more effective way of doing their job, they shold be rewarded with higher wages. I wold say there are some who are effective and some who are not. ho big problem is how to screen the doers from the non-doers. aybe they shold make it a merit raise instead of a prodctivity raise. hat shold start screening ot some of the people who are nsatisfactory. Jenny Krivanek. editor: "I think it's fine. If people aren't working for the money they are paid, they sholdn't be getting an increase. I don't know who's going to jdge if people are prodcing p to standard. I've seen good and bad examples of prodctivity and I think the bad examples shold receive decreases in their salaries. Bt overall, with the ctbacks, I think today, many people have to fill in for people who have been laid off. aybe the objective has already been met; city workers may be in the process of having to increase their otpt.'

A. Not necessarily. Yor eligibility for spplemental secrity income will depend on whether yor resorces, inclding yor savings, amont to $1,500 or more. If yo are eligible, the interest on yor savings may affect the amont of yor spplemental secrity income payments. Call or write any social secrity office for more information. Q.

If yo have no other earnings in 1976, there's nothing to worry abot becase yo can earn p to $2,760 this year and still get all of yor benefits. If yor annal earnings exceed $2,760, $1 in benefits will be withheld for each $2 earned above that amont. No matter how mch yo earn forj the year, however, yo can still get a check for any month yor wages didn't go over $2 and yo don't do sbstantial work in yor own bsiness.

ALIEN LA SRUCK DON hree federal jdges, sitting in anhattan, recently strck down a state law that barred aliens from teaching in pblic schools nless they had applied for citizenship as nconstittional. he Federal District Cort decision said the law "seems repgnant" to the American heritage and noted in the particlar case which triggered the decision, "It is ndispted that, in both cases, the denial of certification (to teach) has borne no relation to plaintiff's general character or qalifications, bt, rather, is solely the prodct of their stats as nonapplicant aliens." he decision stems from sits broght by Ssan.. Norwick, a Scot, and arga U. K. Dachinger, a Finn. he state had claimed in its sit that New York has a "compelling interest" to insre that pblic school teachers were qalified by profession and example to transmit the American heritage to stdents. ««HIRING GOAL NEAR Onondaga Conty is approaching its previosly set goal of hiring 6 percent minority grop pblic employees, according to the conty affirmative action officer. However, the official, Kathleen J. Howard, said the conty's next goal, that of hiring minority grop members and women to hold skilled or managerial posts, is expected to be more difficlt. Presently, minority grops constitte 5.59 percent of the Onondaga Conty 4,000-person workforce. Overall, members of minority grops make p abot 5.8 percent of the total Onondaga workforce. Approximately 58 percent of the conty workforce is female althogh women constitte only arond 49 percent of the total Onondaga workforce. LEGISLAOR PENSIONS A bill signed recently by Gov. Hgh L.

Becker, president of the Attica Correctional Facility chapter, Civil Service Employees Assn., called on Gov. Hgh L. Carey "and others interested in making the system work" to take immediate steps to alleviate prison overcrowding "before there is loss of life as there was nder similar con- ditions in 1971." "After 43 persons. Inclding a nmber of or members, lost their lives, Attica's Inmate poplation was redced to 1,200 in a matter of days," said r. Beckea-, whose nion represents abot 0 non-nlformed correctional' facl'ty personnel. hese Inclde abot 100 conselors, teachers land medical personnel performing some secrity fnctions who work wiithin the walls of the maximm secrity fwillty. "Eespite the recent Inmate flare-p, which reslted in injries to correction officers and an inmate, and despite the nanimos agreement by all athorities that Abtlca Is overcrowded, nothing Is being done," r. Becker contined. r. Becker declined to draw parallels between conditions in 1971 land the present becase he was not at Attica then. Nevertheless, he explained that the crrent overcrowding is worse becase the poplation exceeds 2,000 in loss space than that which the ckay CJommlsslon said was adeqate for no more tha.n 1,250 Inmates. Space lavallable in 1971 has been redced by remodeling now nder way In 250 cells. He said the sitation is frther aggravated by the presence of more than 150 psychotic or severely retfirded inmates, some of whom were transferred to Attica from the specialized facilities lat atteawian and Fishkill. "here are no care programs for those Inmates here. heir idle presence, particlarly in cellblock D. where the Jly 11 distrbance and the 1971 riot took place, aggravates other Inmates and cases fnstratlon for correctional facility stiaff." r. Becicer explained. He added the overcrowding cases inefficient se of programs for inmates, "and is conter prodctive to the rehabilitation aims of the coi'rectlonal system. "hen the inmates have to stand arond for hors waiting to eat, waiting to get a hair ct. waiting to see a doctor waiting, waitine: and waiting it's going to be frstrating to them and this frstration Is going to rb off odi the gaixls, instrctors and others." Pi'og^rams for the inmates have been redced to sch an extent, he said, that class time 'available for those enrolled in many edcation programs has been redced by more than one thia-d. "here we foi-merly had the stdents in the classroom at 8:10 a.m., now it's more likely to be 9:20 a.m. before they're here," said r. Becker. "his is frstrating to s as edcation staff becase we know "Gioeoii'vi^naiii ALBANY V BRANCH OFFICE V» HOaOCASRAJ SARAOGA StlNCS, NE YO llf SAE RAES CONFERENCE CENER BANQUE CAERING Yoel Eiieii the programs are working jst by listening to the animated discssions among classmates long after they've left the classrooms." r. Becker said. "It makes no sense to increase the availability of programs, commit the fnding, find sccess and then abort the whole Illli thing by overcrowding. It's frstration that leads to aggravation." r. Becker said there were fewer than 10 persons on the prison's edcation staff In Now there are 56.

Rockland's Unit eets o Plan Representation Vote Strategy NE CIY he Rockland Conty nit, Civil Service Employees Assn., held an open meeting Jly 21 to discss a representational challenge election monted by the Service Employees International Union, AFL-CIO. Patsy Spied, nit president, said, "I am sre there were many qestions in the minds of or members as to the stats of or negotiations and the representational challenge by SEIU. he meeting provided an opportnity for these qestions to be answered and for an exchange of ideas and strategy." he conty workers have been withot a contract since Jan. 1. In early ay, the CSEA members, in a three-to-one vote, rejected a conty offer to pay increments and a flat $150 to workers not eligible for the increment. Doris Pesner, in the discssions, said CSEA won over SEIU in Sllivan Conty "and that's a good sign. Let's determine what we have to do in Rockland and do it. e will do what or leaders tell s bt they mst tell s." Applase followed this remark. Larry Scanlon, CSEA field representative, said, "In all candor, the sitation In Rockland bids fair to come down to a 'psh-and-shove' sitation and the aylor Law does recognize 'extreme provocation.'" Remarks were made to the effect that the legislators shold realize that the sitation may develop into a "hot war." John aro, Rockland chapter president, said to the meeting: "Yo are CSEA. Yo mst get to yor co-workers and keep them informed." Some members of the nits said that, becase of the CSEA's immediate preoccpation with challenges elsewhere in the Region and the state, Rockland Conty was being short-changed and was not getting its fair share of staff help. s. Pesner moved that a strong appeal in the form of. a letter be made to CSEA Albany Headqarters for more assistance and more field staff. "hey shold realize that we're in a crisis," she declared. he motion was passed nanimosly. he members also voted to demonstrate esday. Ag. 17, the occasion of the next conty legislative meeting. arion Aicher, chapter political action committee chairman, made an appeal for more members to serve on her committee. "e've got to let the legislators know that we're interested in them and where they stand," she said. he next committee meeting will be held esday, Ag. 3, at chapter headqarters, New City. Patsy Spied, Rockland nit president and a chapter vicepresident, made reference to the membership drive crrently nder way by CSEA and reminded members they wold receive $5 for each new member they recrit. eanwhile, a cort order restraining the conty from begining its frlogh plan has been extended for at least two weeks. Larry Scanlon. CSEA field representative, called the offer "ridiclos" and proposed that the conty join the CSEA in sbmitting the isses to arbitration. he nion is seeking reglar Increments pls a 5 percent salary increase or $500, whichever is higher. he offer to arbitrate was not picked p by the conty legislators who apparently seem to prefer a legislative hearing. Under the aylor Law, this wold give them the opportnity to impose a one-year settlement. he conty and the CSEA were sbseqently ordered by the Pblic Employment Relations Board to sbmit their proposals to a fact-finder by Jne 25. his was done and a PERB decision shold be forthcoming shortly. he CSEA. meanwhile, was challenged by the SEIU for employee representation. Five days of hearings on nit determination have recently been conclded before a PERB hearing examiner. he parties involved liave been asked to sbmit briefs by Jly. r. Spicci charged that the SEIU broke its pledge to Rockland Conty employees when, in an open letter, the nion promised "to postpone any SEIU/^ CSEA election ntil after the contract is settled." Livmgston CSEA Convinces^ Conty Board o Cancel Private Contracting Plans GENESEO he Civil Service Employees Assn. scored a victxry for employees of Livingston Conty by defeating a proposal by the Conty to contract ot for food services at the infirmary. CSEA collective bargaining specialist Gary Johnson said that last fall, a committee of the Livingston Conty Board of Spervisors advertised for bids for the contracting ot of the infirmary's food service department, formerly staffed by conty employees. r. Johnson said that by December, the Conty had received one bid from a private food service company otlining costs for rnning the infirmary operation. he CSEA negotiator said that the nion obtained a copy of the cost figres and after several weeks of analyzing the costs of contracting ot, compared with the cost to the conty for rnning its own food service, the CSEA determined that the private contractor wold not save the conty any money. r. Johnson, accompanied by James rray, Livingston chapter president, and several other food service workers, attended a special meeting of the Board of Spervisors and presented them with figres spporting their determination. hen, according to the CSEA representative, after several more weeks of stdying additional statistics from other contractors and "conter statistics" from the CSEA, the Board of Spervisors voted to reject the food service contractor's bid and to contine to operate its own service, staffed by conty employees. Shenendehowa ( Calls Impasse SHENENDEHOA Impasse has been declared in negotiations between the Shenendehowa school nit of the Civil Service Employees Assn. and the Shenendehowa Board of Edcation. he Shenendehowa nit has also filed an improper practice * charge with the Pblic Employment Relations Board over the board of edcation's refsal to grant longevity and Increment payments.

Gray, who had sent letters to all hrway employees dring the campaign, capped off the win by sending a thank yo message to every worker. "Yor CSEA negotiators have jst gotten a big vote of confidence, and yo can bet yor life the hrway management knows it," she wrote. "Let's tiake advantage of this and se every opportnity to show that we're ( all nited for the big. common objective a good, new contract." he CSEA win was the latest of several challenges from the SEIU that the CSEA has trned back sccessflly, incliiding a nmber among hmwiay workers.
