Inclded in their recommendations was the need for a "blitz" period to disseminate information and lobby for agency shop dring the last two weeks of May. Standingr, from left are: Kenneth Cadiex, CSEA; Bernard Ryan, CSEA di- rector of legislation and political action; Lois Hghes, American Federation of State, Conty and Mnicipal Employees; Gerald T.

The bill affects all non-teaching personnel throghot the state who are not ordinarily employed dring the smmer months. The CSEA grop called on their local assemblyman in Albany to rge defeat of the legislative mendment which is BALLOTS Becase of a post office mistake, in sending ot ballots early for elections of statewide officers and exective committee members of the Civil Service Employees Assn., procedre has been set p to allow members who have voted early to change their vote, if they want to.

In a meeting held at CSEA headqarters before the representatives went to the State Capitol, Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl, president of the GSEA, told the grop that the CSEA opposed the bill becase "it deprives individals from receiving nemployment insrance benefits who, throgh no falt of their own, are nable to work." "The bill ignores the fact that non-instrctional school employees are ready, willing and able to work bt are deprived of employment as a reslt of the school district's determination concerning the work year. It frther Ignores the fact that it is extremely difficlt and, in most cases, impossible for these employees to find smmer employment with another sorce," Dr. Wenzl said. He also said that passage of the legislation wold not be a cost-saving measre bt, merely, a transfer of maintenance income responsibilities to conty (Contined on Page 3) A.

Wenzl: The Best Contract For The Greatest Nmber ALBANY After intense debate, conflicts over interpretation, and a delay for clarification of langage, the tentative agreement reached April 17 between New York State and the Civil Service Employees Assn. was ratified overwhelmingly by members of all for bargaining nits last week. The total vote was approximately 50,000 approving the contract and 15,000 opposing, greater than 2/3 plrality for ratification. The figres for each nit break down as follows: Administrative Unit, votes to accept, 3,720 votes to reject. Operational Unit, 8,110 votes to accept, 3,164 votes to reject.

Instittional Unit, 15,709 votes to accept, 3,054 votes to reject. Professional, Scientific and Technical Unit, 12,052 votes to accept, 5,235 votes to reject. Overwhelming poplar spport for the Contract seemed to affirm the feeling of Theodore C. Wenzl, CSEA president, that, "it was the best contract for the majority of the membership." The lopsided ratification vote did not, however, totally halt all qestions regarding the agreement, which averted a statewide strike planned for April 18.

Pblic employee nions have proclaimed this week "Agency Shop Week" to highlight their efforts to get the Agency Shop Bill passed in the State Senate. The Assembly passed the bill on March 23. Union members are jst beginning to generate write-yorstate-senator campaigns and are planning vigils and demonstrations. "CJet the free riders off or backs" is the rallying cry. Bt it appears to be an phill battle for the nions. The opposition appears to be strong and well-organized. "The mail against the bill has been very heavy," said Janet ff's Agency Shop Week ALBANY This week has been declared "Agency Shop Week" by the Civil Service Employees Assn. and virtally every other pblic employee nion in New York State. The prpose of this cooperative effort will be vigoros campaigning and lobbying in spport of the Agency Shop bill, pending THEODORE WENZL... Joining forces in the State Senate. At a nion leaders' conference recently at CSEA Headqarters, 25 nion representatives nanimosly agreed to a schedle of events to convince state senators to spport an agency shop bill. An identical bill has already been passed by the assembly. The bill wold reqire that all pblic employees represented by a nion be atomatically reqired to pay nion des whether they are members or not. The Taylor Law reqires pblic employee nions to represent both members and non-members eqally in negotiating contracts and in adjsting grievances. The nion coalition says nonmembers shold be reqired to pay for benefits they receive sch as increased wages, employee protection, and fringe benefits which are negotiated by the nion. The nions also cite the increasing financial brden of representing pblic employees effectively as membership rolls contine to decline becase of poor economic Beverly Hills, Florida OPENS ANOTHER NEW SECTION!

Telephone committees will be formed to call senators. Theodore C. Wenzl, CSEA president, will join other coalition nion presidents May 31 in a meeting with Sen. Warren Anderson, Senate Majority Leader. They will ask Senator Anderson to pt the bill on the agenda of that week's Repblican conference. "With the type of excellent cooperation we have been receiving from these pblic employee nions, combined with the efforts of their members, passage of the agency shop bill may now, finally, become a reality," said Bernard J.

The bill, which died in previos legislative sessions, calls for all workers in a nit, even non-nion members, to pay xinion des.

3 Pact Ratification Oyerwhelming ea (Contined from Page 1) signed, based on claims that some members did not receive ballots and others voted twice. James Roemer, CSEA consel, downplayed the order, which will be heard this week, explaining that the nmber of alleged discrepancies was mch too small to affect the vote's otcome. Section nine of the contract is where certain distinctions are made according to bargaining nit. What follows is a smmation of the contract provisions specific to each of the for nits: OPERATIONAL SERVICES: In filling a Job vacancy, seniority is the determining factor, all other factors being eqal. Seniority is defined, according to Civil Service Law, as the length of continos state service. A provision Is added reqiring that sch appointments inclde a probationary period of eight to 26 weeks. Grievances regarding violations of job vacancy postings may be processed to the Office of Employee Relations and are not arbitra,ble. ADMINISTRATIVE SERV- ICES: Except in the case of shift operations, the normal workweek for fll-time state employees, not employed on a seasonal or field basis, is Monday throgh Friday. The working day begins at 6 a.m., or 10 a.m. Where shift work is reqired, seniority will generally determine to which shift an employee is assigned. The workweek, "wherever practicable and consistent with program needs," consists of five consective days, followed by two consective days off. PROFESSIONAL, SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL SERVICES: Seniority is defined as the length of continos state service, fll or part time. Certain interrptions resignation and reinstatement within a year, a provisional period immediately preceded and followed by permanent service will not affect seniority. Vacation is based on seniority, bt the state has the right "to allow only sch employees, in order of seniority, as can be reasonably spared to take sch vacation time off." The assignment of shift, pass days, overtime, and volntary transfers will depend on seniority CSEA Fights Willowbrook Takeover (Contined from Page 1) tained a temporary restraining order on May 11 seeking an injnction to prevent the takeover. Speaking at a press conference last week, William McOowan, CSEA exective vice-president, charged, "not only does Cerebral Palsy lack the expertise to care properly for the retarded patients hosed in Willowbrook, bt 500 trained and dedicated employees cold lose their jobs in the proposed takeover." Mr. McGowan, Willowbrook CSEA Local 429 president Ronnie Smith, Willowbrook vicepresident Patrick Fraser, Region II president Solomon Bendet and collective bargaining specialist Robert Gild appeared at the mid-town Manhattan press conference May 17 to denonce the agreement. Under the proposed agreement. United Cerebral Palsy Associations for New York State will have fll operational athority over five of the 27 bildings at Willowbrook, which contains 500 retarded patients between the ages of 10 and 17. United Cerebral Palsy will hire staff for some of the bildings and provide spervisors for present staff members in other bildings. However, the contract can be expanded to give Cerebral Palsy athority over other bildings if their operation of the original five proves sccessfl. Moreover, United Cerebral Palsy is negotiating for the operation of miniteams of training personnel at the Govemer Division of Manhattan Development Center. According to CSEA leaders, the sbcontracting of patient care reslts from the state's failing to meet a timetable set p in a consent agreement of April 1975 to redce the poplation of Willowbrook gradally to 250 by Parents and lawyers for the residents moved recently to have state officials cited for contempt. "The State has been brned and they jst want to get ot of the Mental Hygiene bsiness in Willowbrook," said Mr. McGowan. Mr. McGowan said that "the Department of Mental Hygiene will se a bdget made p of Medicare, Medicaid and other state sbsidy monies to pay United Cerebral Palsy $26,000 for the care of each patient hosed in the Willowbrook facility." "This is approximately two to three times more than the state pays now to care for patients," said Mr. McGowan. "What is happening is that the state is sing federal fnds to get ot of taking proper care of the mentally ill and retarded. It is financial sleight-of-hand which will cost the taxpayer more in the Information for the Calendar may be sbmitted directly to THE LEADER.

Mr. Smith said that if Cerebral Palsy takes over the five bildings, the jobs of 500 employees presently staffing the facilities will be terminated. "The Cerebral Palsy people are saying that they will hire some of or people back to staff the bildings, bt even if they do, the employees will lose their state pensions and will be offered jobs at a lower rate of pay," Mr. Smith said. Fear was expressed by Mr. McGowan that the Willowbrook- Cerebral Palsy deal cold set a pattern for private instittions sbcontracting patient care in other instittions throghot the state. He cited the West Seneca Development Center near Bffalo as a possible next target for frther takeover by Ceberal Palsy. In a March 11 article in the New York Times, a spokesman for Gov. Hgh Carey said, "the new Willowbrook arrangement raises the possibility of having private nonprofit organizations reimbrsed by the state to manage other state facilities as well." "One of or fears is that private companies can get ot of a contract with six months' notice if they are not making money. Then what will happen to patients when the state has no facilities or staff to care for them? And is it right for the government to make a profit-making bsiness ot of caring for society's helpless citizens?" asked Mr. McGowan. Mr. Bendet, in an interview sbseqent to the press conference, expressed "vigoros" opposition to the decentralization of the Mental Hygiene instittions. "I rgently oppose this Willowbrook plan," he said. Early Ballot Problem Instrctions Updated ALBANY De to a mistake by the U.S. Post Office, thosands of Civil Service Employees Assn. members received ballots for the 1977 election of statewide officers and state exective committee members approximately one week earlier than the schedled date of May 19. As a reslt, letters will be mailed to those members who voted early informing them they have the option of letting their original vote stand or reqesting a replacement ballot to void their early vote, and explaining the procedre for mak- 1q the reqest. Bajlots in the statewide election were schedled to go ot May 19, bt the Post Office mistakenly mailed ot thosands of ballots a week too early. All ballota received at the Latham post office'as of noon, aatrday.'m»y 21 will be assmed to have been sent too early, and those members will be sent the letter notifying them of the option. Maiiy candidates had planned to mont advertising and speaking campaigns to coincide with the schedled May 19 ballot mailing, and the option now enables those voting early to change their minds and cast replacement ballots if desired. No early ballots will actally be opened since the name and social secrity nmber of the member voting is contaihed the otside of the retrn envelope. If a member does not reqest a replacement ballot, his or her initial ballot will be conted as valid. Ballots of those asking for a new ballot will be voided. Amsterdam Date Processing Corporation, the independent firm condcting the election, will mail the informational letters and handle reqests for replacement ballots. The deadline for early voters reqesting new ballots is Jne 10, and the deadline for filing the replacement ballots is noon. Jne 27. when other matters, sch as qalifications, are considered eqal. "... Shift and pass days will not be assigned for imposing discipline." INSTITUTIONAL SERVICES: Overtime will be distribted by titles or by grop of titles by work location. It will be offered on a seniority basis. If there are no volnteers it will be assigned in order of reverse seniority. There are a few changes in employee development and training, and in seniority, sbjects covered in sections 10 and 11. For example, in the case of off-dty corses, seniority will be applied as a tie-breaker when there are more applicants than can be approved. Changes in seniority are as follows: absences of three months or more will be dedcted from length of service; "temporary or provisional service immediately prior to permanent appointment" will be inclded In seniority calclation. Immediate prior part-time service" will be added on a prorated basis."

Wenzl, president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., expressing the nion's view regarding filling the vacancy created on the State Civil Service Commission. Dear Gtovernor Carey: The CSEA has noted with considerable pleasre and pride the appointment of Mrs. Ersa Poston to the United States Civil Service Commission. However, this leaves a great void in the State Civil Service Commission. The oldest member of the present commission Is Mr. Victor Baho, who was appointed Jne 19, The other member of the Commission, Mrs. Josephine Gambino, has been serving only since March 17, The Civil Service Employees Association considers the Civil Service Commission as one of the most important bodies in the State of New York. It is particlarly critical that this agency can take a strong role in the personnel program of the State with all the impets now for the reform of the Civil Service Law. We are, therefore, rging pon yo two matters; one, immediately filling the vacancy created by the advancement of Mrs. Poston. Many of the actions of thje Civil Service Commission reqire a nanimos vote by all three members. Unless the Commission is completely staffed, action on items reqiring nanimos consent of all three members will be impossible. Second, we most strongly rge yo that, in yor selection of the replacement of Mrs. Poston, yo appoint an individal who has had long experience in the pblic personnel field and is familiar with State and local government. We are certain that a good, qalified person will complement the work of the present members of the Commission in developing an effective agency for the State. We respectflly reqest that yo take action on this matter as rapidly as possible. Respectflly yors, THEODORE C. WENZL President RETIREMENT CERTIFICATE AWARDED North Hempstead Town Spervisor Michael J.

AND YOU AREN'T SURE The Second Srgical Consltation Program is now available to state and local government employees in the Albany and New York City metropolitan area who are enrolled in the New York State Employees Health Insrance Program Second Srgical Consltation rogrann Why is this program offered? Srgical Consltations can be expensive. The cost of a seccond opinion may, in the past, have prevented patients fronn seeking consltations. The Second Srgical Consltation Program removes this cost barrier by paying the fll cost of a consltation arranged by the program. Any X-rays and laboratory test reqired to complete the consltation will also be paid. All srgery involves certain risks. In some cases, the consltant may sggest an alternative method of treatment, or may recommend that srgery is not necessary. If the need for srgery is confirmed, a second srgical consltation offers peace of mind to the patient and reassrance to the doctor that the proposed srgery is the best treatment for the patient. Consltations offer yo and yor physician a way to achieve the highest qality of medical care possible.

FRIDAY, MAY 27, 1977 Civil Service Reform IT is hman natre to be dissatisfied with things as they exist, so why do things so often stay the same? Probably the simplest way to explain sch a phenomenon is to note that for each point of vexation, there are innmerable opinions on how to change it. One historical example concerns the restoration of the French monarchy in the latter part of the previos centry. After Napoleon III lost his imperial throne, the French parliament had to decide on what form of government to set p. The majority favored reinstittion of the kingdom. The catch was that the monarchists were divided between those favoring the restoration of the Borbon dynasty and those advocating the restoration of the Orleans line. Conseqently, in 1871, the Third Repblic was established. In New York State Civil Service Law, the rle of onein-three has been the system sed for appointment to civil service jobs. In the crrent stdies being made to "reform" the law, this rle of one-in-three has come nder fire. Now it is qite possible that a majority of people might agree that it shold be scrapped. On the other hand, some critics wold replace it with exact order appointment (sch as New York City Mayor Abraham Beame imposed by exective order) in order to do away with any discretionary jdgments. Others wold expand the nmber from one-in-three to one-in-ten, so as to provide greater flexibility. Still others wold open the system to provide that all candidates who pass an exam be given eqal consideration, ths making it easier to adhere to federal gidelines on the hiring of women and members of specific ethnic grops. We do not believe the crrent Civil Service Law mst be a sacred cow, bt neither do we think it shold be changed for the mere sake of show. Beyond the mere statistics, the real case for dissatisfaction with the existing Civil Service Law is the feeling that it is being absed. In short, enforce the law as it reads before tampering with it. (M.O.B.) Grace, Corage And Class IN a recent Leader, it was reported that the first women may soon join the New York City Fire Department as fll-fledged firefighters. Firewomen, lady firefighters, firegals, fire ladies, or whatever one chooses to call them, the distaff department members will certainly bring abot a major change in the city's fire-fighting force. Their arrival will probably also evoke the sal remarks from female detractors who will insist no woman can ever possibly qalify for sch dty, and from die-in-the-wool women liberationlsts who will insist that most women cold qalify. We believe the trth lies somewhere in the middle of the extremes. When the first woman applicant with the physical, mental and emotional qalifications comes along, we trst Fire Department officials and Fire Department members will accept her with grace, corage and class. Fire Department qalifying standards, we feel, shold not be lowered to make it easier for anyone. Nor shold or sense of jstice and fair play., (H-T.) (Contined from Page 1) titde of evils. Among the imprities that afflict or langage, the word reform has become a ephemistic synonym for any change, however regressive in character. Theodore C. Wenzl, president of the Civil Service Employees Assn.. had the occasion to lift the sham of the reform label which the Temporary State Commission on Management and Prodctivity in the Pblic Sector attached to its tentative proposals for "reform" of the State Civil Service Commission and Its procedres and practices. Served Well While some changes and improvements can be made, the fact Is that the Civil Service system has served the people of the state and its local governments well. Elected officials, commissioners, department and agency heads come and go with the shifting political tides, bt the permanent Civil Service keeps government operations moving along on an even keel dring periods of political change. In testimony before the Temporary State Commission, Dr. Wenzl pointed ot that Improvements in the administration of the Merit System cannot be achieved In the face of sharp bdget cts that have been Imposed pon the State Civil Service Commission dring the past two years. This Is particlarly so, he said, since the major cts were made In the commission's personnel services and development programs, critical areas of the commission's fxmction In personnel recritment, training and promotion. In addition plans for decentralization of the classification and compensation fnction to the operating departments was vigorosly opposed by Dr. Wenzl. This procedre, he charged, wold imdermine the merit system by permitting departments to avoid sing existing eligible lists in order to reward favored or politically well-connected employees. Elements Of Favoritism He voiced similar objections to a proposal nder which department heads wold be given discretion to grant merit increases to selected employees. Again, this is a recommendation which wold Impose on the Merit System elements of favoritism and political pressres. The potential for abse of this procedre can prove to be a most destrctive element in ndermining pblic employees morale and the qality of services provided by the permanent civil service employees. Prom an affirmative point of view. Dr. Wenzl recommended jidoption of the CSEA program for the creation of career ladders which wold enable women and minorities to move into spervisory positions, based pon additional training and performance in Civil Service entry positions. Piogress from the spoils system to the Merit System has moved on a long and difficlt road, beset with contless obstacles pt in the way by those who profited by the spoils system. Over the years, the Merit System has persasively demonstrated that it is the most efficient and effective way to provide the pblic with decent ser-,viqbs and dedicated wployees. Civil Service Law & Yo By RICHARD GABA Mr. Gaba is a member of the New Tork Bar and Chalnnan of Che Nassa Conty r Association Labor Law Committee. Police Upheld Several police officers employed by the City of Long Beach were charged with violating the prohibition contained in Section 210 of the Civil Service Law making It illegal for pblic employees to engage in a strike. It was alleged by the pblic employer that the police officers had abstained from the proper performance of their dties withot permission and had interfered with the city's orderly operation of essential services. More specifically, It was charged they stopped city bses, sanitation trcks and sewer maintenance vehicles, detaining them for long and time-consming Inspections. They issed smmonses and ordered drivers tq retrn to their garages. Never before in the history of Long Beach had smmonses been issed by police officers to other mnicipal employees. It was determined the violations involved conditions not impairing the safe operation of the vehicles. As a reslt of an overly meticlos adherence to rles, the police officers fond the alleged nsafe conditions to exist. In some cases, compliance with these rles had been fond to be impractical, and in other cases, the rles were inapplicable to the vehicles involved. The alleged miscondct on the part of the police officers took place over a threeday period and was designed to force the city to rescind its order demoting certain high-ranking police officers for bdgetary reasons. Prsant to the provisions of the Taylor Law, the city manager determined that the officers had violated Section 210 and imposed certain pnishment. The police officers commenced an Article 78 proceeding in Nassa Conty Spreme Cort reslting in a dismissal of the petitions. The same cort also denied petitioners' motions for renewal or reargment. On appeal to the Appellate Division, Second Department, it was held that the decision of the lower cort shold be affirmed. The Appellate Division said: "We agree with respondents and Special Term that petitioners thereby engaged in a strike within the meaning of the Taylor Law. Respondents did not act arbitrarily and capriciosly in reaching their determination withot a hearing, since petitioner's affidavits did not refte the charges in sch a manner as to raise a qestion of fact (see Civil Service Law, Section 210)." In the Matter of Dowlinff, et al. v. Bowen-, City Manager and Chief Exective Officer of the City of Long Beach, 385 N.Y.S. 2d 355. In an Article 78 proceeding commenced by an individal who took for written examinations given by the New York City Civil Service Commission, it was contended that admission to the examinations was eqivalent to admitting that the individal met the reqirements for appointment. It was conceded by the commission that petitioner passed for written examinations to which he was admitted. There were two sets of examinations one promotional and one open competitive for each of two titles. The cort held that the device of allowing the individal to sit for the examination promotes the efficient processing of applications. It did not constitte an ipso facto deter- (Contlaed 09 JPMe 7)

I think the way the election system is set p now makes a lot of people vote jst for names and pictires. With the staggered election system, the voter will be less confsed and able to choose a better candidate." Martha Jane Harrop, commnity mental health nrse: "I favor the crrent elections system for CSEA leadership. I think it's good to have elections all at one time. If they were held two or three different times dring the year, people wold simply lose interest. It wold seem to them that an election is something that is going on all the time. Once > they get sed to voting as something permanent, there's nothing challenging abot it. Therefore, I prefer to get it over with all at one time." Barry Markman, vocational rehabilitation conselor: "I feel that the elections being rn simltaneosly places a great strain on local leadership. While setting p a local election, they also have to participate in the regional and statewide elections. I wold really like to see some kind of a separation between the local, regional and statewide elections. What is most important, however, is that candidates shold start dealing with the major isses facing the workers." Editor, The Leader: In the front-page article on "rigged" school hearings (April 15), the Civil Service Leader gives the distrbing impression that teachers' are sbject to arbitrary witchhnts and, fi-ther, that the United Federation of Teachers does nothing abot it. Both charges are patently ntre. The article, in fact, contains so many nsbstantiated charges and gross inaccracies that the sspicion mst arise of deliberate falsification. The article talks abot "mental medicals" and qotes a charge that the UFT "sides" with athorities and "doblecrosses" its members. There was no attempt to sbstantiate these charges, verify the facts or seek reftation from the UPT. We have no record of any attempt by yor reporter to contact the nion in the preparation of her story, despite her allegation that "nion officials cold not be reached for comment": she never tried. Second, Um writer' cites 'a timespan from candidacy to election is too short. Lots of my co-workers share my opinion that the time to make decisions abot candidates is not sfficient in the present electoral system. We wold rather have staggered elections." Steve Friedman, mental hygiene therapy aide: "I have no reasons to favor the present system of election, becase it is too confsing having everybody rnning at the same time. Also, this system doesn't offer sfficient exposre to pertinent information abot individal candidates. I hope that a staggered election will offer the voters the opportnity to review the folders, pictres and records of the candidates. Then everybody will get the opportnity to elect the best candidates." Brad Cohen, mental hygiene therapy aide: "I don't really care. For the most part, the leadership has been nresponsive to the problems of nion membership. No matter how the elections are rn, it won't make mch of a difference. The same type of leadership will be on top, either way. This won't make mch of a difference lor the membership. A lot of membership is not going to care abot the elections, anyway." LETTERS TO THE EDITOR charge that the nion "too often takes the side of school officials against teachers." Since that never happens, this represents another lie printed by yo withot any attempt to check the facts. Third, the article claims that many long-term teachers are LETTERS POLICY Letters to the Editor shold be less than 200 words. The Leader reserves the right to extract or condense pertinent sections of letters that exceed the maximm length. Meaning or intent of a letter is never changed. Lengthy letters that cannot be edited to a reasonable length are not sed nless their viewpoint is so niqe that, in The Leader's jdgment, an exception shold be made. All letters mst be signed and bear the writer's address and telephone nmber. Names will be withheld pon reqest. labeled mentally nfit by school athorities and lose their jobs. Again, this is a very serios charge which merited checking; yet it was pblished withot any verification. The trth is that very few have ever lost jobs this way. Finally, it is pecliar that the writer qotes at length the charges of a small grop who claim great sccess in cort. However, the fact is that jst before the article appeared, the United States District Cort in New York threw ot this grop's case and the cases of nine separate individals broght by this grop. The jdge denied all their claims and rebked the grop for being "career litigants." Why were these sccess claims not verified? Why were they not measred against the trth? RETIREMENT NEWS & FACTS By A. L. PETERS Retiree Ranks With President Carter's attempt to make the Social Secrity system solvent, the whole qestion of pblic retirement benefits is getting an international airing. Some weeks ago, I described systems In varios foreign nations. The New York Times, In a chart last week, noted that pasrroll taxes in Italy were 35 percent. West Germany, 30 percent; Great Britain, 14.5 percent; Prance, 4 percent; and the United States, 11.7 percent. It cited the comparative deficits in Italy at $72 million, West Germany, $4.8 billion; Prance, $640 million; and the United States, $5.6 biluon. The problem arises from several nsrmontable forces: The proportion of retirees to the work force is consistently increasing as birth rates decline and longevity brings abot an older poplation. It is approaching a dne-retiree-to-every-forpersons figre in the United States and may reach one in three by 1985, say poplation experts. Inflation forces an increase in benefit payments so that money paid in Social Secrity taxes 10 years ago does not meet the needs of beneficiaries today and interest does not make p the difference. Most systems pay ot more to low income wage earners than their payments jstify. In effect, Social Secrity becomes a sort of spplementary welfare system. Health benefits are inclded and the cost of this has skyrocketed. The original plan, for most cases, was not completely realistic. President Carter has offered a plan that wold increase the employer's share of Social Secrity taxes sbstantially, employees The UFT has a well-deserved reptation as a fighter for teacher rights; we insist on fll de process and the right of any individal to litigate any injrios decision. The UPT repreresents every teacher who seeks help whether a member or not in charges broght by the board or any of its parts. We neither make the laws nor jdge the case, bt we do provide the defense which every teacher has a right to expect. For the Civil Service Leader to se otright lies, misleading statements and gross inaccracies to cast dobts on the UFT's performance is libelos to the nion and crel to the civil servants who are readers of yor paper. After all, if teachers are honded and ndefended throgh "kangaroo corts" and "blacklisting" why not other city employees? It is incredible that a responsible newspaper wold print so destrctive a story withot any attempt at verification. NAOMI SPATZ Assistant Director of PbUc Relations. UFT Ed Note: Or reporter tried on nmeros occasions to verify the facts with UFT. bt UFT officials failed to reply to her telephone messages. Growing share somewhat, and the general treasry will contribte a relatively minor amont. Undobtedly, Congress will adjst these figres in response to varios pressres, bt certainly all three elements will * have «to participate. Mayor Beame has again placed the brden of fnding New York City on nion pension fimds. In a statement last week he indicated that the relctance of nion pension, fnds to prchase long-term city bonds wold endanger his plan to pt a cap on real estate taxes. The pressre is on the pension fnds to prchase 14-year bonds payable in annal installments. Union pension fnds are already committed to prchase $1.5 billion in city bonds to very sbstantial holdings they already have. Apparently, Investment advisors have sggested that commitments not be made for a period of more than seven years. And some fnds, officials feel they cannot go beyond one-year notes which can be rolled over to meet the reqirements of both the city and the pension fnds. * * As a pblic service. The Leader contines to pblish the names of individals who are beneficiaries of nclaimed checks from the New York State Employees' Retirement System and the State Policemen's and Firemen's Fnd.

Overtrn Unjst Firing MINEOLA Robert Coe, who was dismissed in 1974 from his job as ato mechanic for the Nassa Conty Police Department, was reinstated with back pay last week by the Appellate Division which agreed with attorneys for the Service Employees Assn. that he had been fired njstly. Mr. Coe, a former CSEA Nassa Conty negotiating committee member and shop steward for the civilian employees in the Police Department, had been dismissed in March 1974 after refsing to lift and move heavy refse containers becase of chronically weak knees. The police department fired Mr. Coe and claimed that it is a paramilitary organization and wold not allow orders to be disobeyed. Local attorney Richard M. Gaba arged sccessflly that dismissal was too harsh a pnishment and that Mr. Coe shold be reinstated. Two other employees, Ronald Gales, who was fired, and John McMans who was fined by the Police Department for refsal to remove the refse containers, had their cases reversed. Mr. Gates was reinstated and Mr. McMans had his fine redced. Police Commissioner Michael Codd, standing:, helped dedicate Intermediate School 72 in Staten Island renamed after officer Rocco Larie (painting right) who was Itilled in Slain Polkemm By BERNADETTE AMATO Intermediate School 72 Faclty members and Staten Island residents were on hand last week for the dedication ceremony in which the school was renamed Union Opposes 'Snset' Scheme ALBANY The Civil Service Employees Assn. sailed into the "snset" legislation proposal recently, saying it "may have the effect of wholesale abolition of agencies or programs that spply services to the citizens of this state. Stephen Wiley, of the CSEA law firm, Roemer & Featherstonhagh, testified on the proposed legislation before the New York State Commission on Management and Prodctivity in the Pblic Sector and the State Assembly Committee on Governmental Operations. Mr. Wiley said that "snset" legislation is spposed to "provide a mechanism for periodic evalation of programs and atomatic termination of those programs nless the legislatre acts affirmatively to contine their existence. "The niqe characteristic of 'snset' is not, however, its evalation fnction. Its niqe characteristic is the atomatic termination of agencies, programs, rles and reglations, state mandates, or laws nless affirmative action to contine them Is taken by a particlar date." He pointed ot that the CSEA does not oppose the review or reexamination of programs by the legislatre. "It Is or position, however, that conventional 'snset' is not the appropriate means to accomplish that end in New York State." Mr. Wiley named several other states in which 'snset' legislation has not worked, and pointed ot that It shold not be perceived as a money-saving device. U.S. Senator Edmnd Mskie, in his remarks to the April 24 Snset Conference, "noted that the review and examination process wold n* dobtedly reslt In Increased appropriations in some areas," Mr. Wiley said. He added that "aid to state and local goverrnents in the next bdget approach $80 billion, and that "far from helping the economy of New York State, the willy-nilly termination of agencies wold ndobtedly restrict the flow of federal aid to New York withot appreciably affecting the tax brden." However. Mr. Wiley stressed that "This does not mean that the legislatre cannot and shold not establish a program for reglarly recrring oversight review," bt "since the Legislatre presently passes on bdget and appropriation matters, and since it has committees on expenditre and review, there Is presently ample opportnity for examination and evalation." He said that evalation "shold certainly not be schedled beyond the de facto ability of the legislatre, given a reasonable commitment of resorces, to cope with the evalation." He endorsed the State Assembly proposal for a bipartisan legislative committee composed of members of both hoses as well as members of the pblic. "I sggest that pblic members inclde representatives of employee organizations which represent those who stand to lose their Jobs as a reslt of evalation... At the close of the evalation, the legislatre cold take whatever action seems necesary following the review." after one of its native sons, Rocco Larie. Mr. Larie was a police officer killed in the line of dty Jan. 27, His partner, Gregory Poster, also died In the shooting which is still nsolved. The men were assigned to the Ninth Precinct In lower Manhattan. Rocco Larie was a native of Staten Island and a gradate of Port Richmond High School where he excelled in sports and ranked in the top qarter of his class. He attended lona College and later joined the Marine Corps. He was a sergeant when honorably discharged. He was awarded the distin- Honor&l gished Bloomingdale Award when he gradated from the police academy. "I am delighted to have or school named for a man sch as Rocco Larie, whose life and devotion to decency and honesty will always be an Inspiration to s all," said the school's principal, Stanley Katzman. Mr. Katzman added Mr. Larie was "a hero In every sense of the word" and wold make a fine example for children to follow throghot their school years. Other ceremony speakers were Police Commissioner Michael Codd. Marine Col. George Wilson and Rabbi Milton Rosenfeld of Temple Israel. Staten Island.
