THE CIVIL SERVICE EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION, INC. December 11, ELK STREET, ALBANY, N. Y Honorable Gerald R, Ford President of the United States of America The White Hose 1600 Pennsylvania Avene Washington, D.C Dear President Ford: In the Albany, New York Times-Union newspaper of December 11, 1975 appeared the following: "Betty Sothard Mrphy, chairman of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), told reporters Wednesday competition between two nions vying to represent state employes will likely end in a merger. 'They'll compete for a while and they'll probably merge eventally,' Mrs. Mrphy said of the Civil Service Employes Association and the five-nion Pblic Employes Federation. Sch a merger wold be 'healthy', she added at an informal discssion before an address to officials of the Pblic Employment Relations Board (PERB)." As President of the 240,000 member Civil Service Employees Association of New York State, I wish to advise yo that, if the essence of the above qotation is accrate, yor appointee, Betty Sothard Mrphy, shold know that I consider sch remarks most improper and indicative of very poor jdgment on her part. I feel she shold not pblicly voice sch personal opinions dring the corse of a crcial election now taking pl-ace among pblic employees here in New York State. This nion at this time wants yo to know that there is no merit whatsoever to Chairman Mrphy's statements and denies the entire sbstance of her remarks. Sincerely, leodore C. WENZL President Wenzl Carey Denonces Threat To Discharge 3,000 ALBANY Civil Service Employees Assn. president Theodore C. Wenzl lias labeled Gov. Hgh L.

Governor Oarey Itbe last week called for ithe inxmediiaite firings and thaneatenieid the additional layoffs if tihe State Legislatre fails to adopt his proposed new state biwiiget. In an exceptdonialily stnong ^dentictation, Dr. Wenzl said Governor Carey "is an eniigima wlho contimaies to oome p far sihart of adeqate in nderstandiing, let alone solving, the problems of govemttiient in tihiis state." Dr. Wenal called state workers "pawns in Governor Carey's power play to twiist legislatdive arms to get this kind of state bdget at any cost" and sadd the Governor's annoncement to fire 3,000 people was "crel, rthless and reckless camlng dring the holiday season and well before the bdget will aotoily be gbmifcted next month.

I:Si week was preparing an nfair labor practices charge to coomter a reported attempt by Mr. Caso to withhold increments dg Jan Mr. Caso had been fond gilty of nfair labor practices in an earlier CSEA case for wi'thfholdlng increments de certain employees last Jan. 1. Hie matter has been taken before Staite Spreme Cort where CSEA is asking a cort order directing Mr, Caso to pay. Now. ac<»rding to Nassa chapter president Irving Ptemmenbam, there are reports tiit Mr. Caso is planning to repeat the illegal act. Meanwhile. CSEA peppered Mr. Caso with two other nfairpractices charges for nilateral actions concemdng employees while negotiations between the conty anid nion are at impasse. The charges, filed by Long Island Region I attorney Richard C. Oaba. concern Mr. Caso's nilateral decision to change the hors of psychiatrists at the Nassa Conty Medical Center and to parceil ot raises nilaterally to selected doctors on the staff there while ignoring others. In the major case. Mr. Plamenham said Mr. Caso is floting the law. Mr. Flamenbaim, who is also Region I president, said CSEA Layoff Watch Set By Westchester Unst WHITE PLAINS The Westchester Conty nit, Civil Service Employees Assn., has plans to careflly watch and oversee any program of layoffs pt into effect by the Conty of Westchester. The conty, in ooxier to bridge a $30 million gap in its pcoming 1976 bdget, proposes to redce its op&raitton cost to 8 percent below Its 1975 figre, Mike Morella, presidenit of the CSEA nit, addressing a recent meeting of members, said that Conty Exective Alfred DeBello had agreed to sbmit any layoff plans to tihe nion. Ml". Morella said that this wold make the ndon ajware of the areas where ots are contemplated and give the nion an opportnity for inpt and sggestions, A rmor that the 8 peix:ent redction wold affect only employees' payroll was scotched by Manny Vitale, collective bargaining specialist. He tojd the members that in the conty's oomtemplated operational cost redction. the nion had been told that manpower wold be the last affected. However. Mr, Vttale said that if layoffs do become necessary, "We shall scrtinize each layoff plan, wiith the right to appeal to the conty exective, in order to make sre that we save as many jobs as possible," It was learned tqnat the oon^ ty's personnel departmient is estabushdng layoff dates for employees, and Mr, Morella, in a Qestian and answer period, expilaiined to the members what their rights were.

3 Gard Wins With C5EA The Second Time Abond BUFFALO A camps secrity gard is happy he retained mfembership in the Civil Service Employees Assn. despite the fact that his SUNY at Bffalo nit is represented by the American Federation of State, Ctonty and Mnicipal Employees. The gard, Mike Brown, had been advised to plead gilty by an AFSCME representative to disciplinary charges to obtain redced pnishment. He then trned to CSEA for help In a second dlscipllniary hearing on similar charges. In this second hearing, the related charges were withdrawn. Mr. Brown was first charged wlbh a series of nathorized absences Nov. 30, 1974 and was advised to enter a gilty plea by the AFSCME official. Frther charges of a like natre were then lodged against him. CSEA Western Region VI associate attorney Ronald L. Jaras, who represented Mr. Brown at the sbseqent third-stage grievance proceeding, repdiated the previos admissions of gilt and sbmitted evidence, in the form of doctors' statements, to prove that all absences were de to health problems and medical treatment. Mr. Brown had originlally explained this to his AFS- CME representative. Mr. Jaros demanded a fll hearing regarding all alleged miscondct inclding that to which Mr. Brown had pleaded gilty. The State then decided to withdraw all charges against Mi\ Brown. Region VI president Robert L. Lattimer hailed the victory as "proof of the speriority of CSEA over lany rivals." He congratlated Mr. Brown on his foresight In maintaining CSEA membership which entitled him to CSEA legal assistance. "Yo cold pay des for a lifetime to any nion and not gain as mch," Mr. Dattlmer said of this benefit, nder which "only CSEA memibers are garanteed legal asslstiance on job-related problems. "In all other nions, as far as I know, once yo need a lawyer, yo get him yorself, and pay for him yorself, or they'll try to ct a deal before it gets that far even If yo're right," he.ald. Last year Mr. Jaros won another AFSCME-related Case. In It, Mr. Jaros and CSEA filed a grievance in behalf of Clyde E. Webb, employed by the Bffalo Sewer Athority in a job reprer sentsd by AFSCME. When AFS- CME's regional director wrote Mr. Webb that he had "no gronds for a grievance or arbltnation" with respect to payment at a higher rate than he was actally receiving, Mr. Webb contacted CSEA field representative Robert E. Yong. Mr. Yong filed the grievance, Mr. Jaros pressed the case, and won Mr. Webb more than $6,000 in back pay. Other Bffalo Sewer Athority employees In similar positions then filed claims. Based pon the arbitrator's decision in the Webb case they received a total of more than $60,000. SCRUTINIZERS \mong the most responsible positions in the entire strctre of the Civil Service Employees Assn. is the bdget committee, composed of CSEA directors elected by other members wf the Board of Directors. It is their responsibility to oversee preparation of the nion's annal bdget.

Correction In a photo caption appearing in the Dec. 9 Isse of The Leader, Donald Webster was incorrectly identified as the president of the White Plains nit. Civil Service Employees Assn. Mr. Webster is president of the Westchester Conty CSEA chapter's Mont Vernon nit. State University system, in for different Bargaioilnig Unii'ts Administrative, Instittional, Operational, and Professional, Scientific and Technical. Many nion members feel that the administration's move was part of an attempt to redce the work year for all non-teadhdng employees of SUNY from 12 months to 10 months. A1 VaiTaocl, president of the CSEA ohapter at Stony Brook, said, "We are 12-monith employees and we interd to stay that way. We "ill fight tms amy way we have to." He called the SUNY memo "a dl'reot violation of or contract and conditions of employment. This 'forced vacation' fast Jlct/o/i Is is nothing less than an Illegal lockot." CSEA had a hearing Dec. 8 on the matter before Janice L. Decker, employee relaitlons associate for the SUNY system. Ms. Decker's decision wiu "ndobtedly reflect the bias of her employer," Mr. Bratetn predicted. "As soon as the decision comes c'own, if it Is nfavorable to s, we will seek a daite for a hearing before an impartial arbitrator," he said. "We feel that we miist win and will win this case for the SUNY employees. What good are any of the rights yo negotiate for. If the state can nilaterally lock yo ot of yor job?" Urged In Lottery Job Isse (Special to The Leader) ALBANY Employees of the sspended New York Lottery are rging prompt action by the Governor in an effort to save their jobs. Faced with the loss of more than 300 jobs, rmored to take effect on Chirlistmias Eve, Civil Service Employees Assn. Albany Raoin-g and Wagierlnig chapter preisidienit Robert dole said, 'If Govemior Cairey adds the Lottery isse to the agenda of the special sessian anid the Legislatre acts qickly to restore the game, or Christmas won't have to be as hopeless as it now appears." Recent reports show statie officials to favor estatoliisihment of an "Inatamt Lattery" to take effect by Pebrairy. However, the Legislatjie will have to appropriate abot $1 million for the game to take effect. Projected revenes for the last two mon'ths of the fiscal year are $10 million, Accoi'ding to Mr. Cole, "Even if the 'Instant' game is prchased fix>m the otside, we will still be resp>oir9ible for the ptx>ce6fiing and distribtdion of the Uckeite. This procedre nonnally takes for weeks. A Feb. 1 starting date for sales means prodction wold have to start by early Jai^airy. In addition, the Govemor has imdlcated a drawing will be held for the Oct. 23 tickets and expcrleoi'oed persooiinetl will be needed to condct the drawing legally.

Despite the Govemoir's assiiranices that most of the employees will be placed elsewhere tn the sitate, the job freeze proposed by Governor Oarey will make thte difficlt. Mr. Cole said. "Paxonpt, nified action by the Govemoi- and Legislatre is the only way to restore Integrtty to tlhe Loittery as well ais provide an expea'lienced. dedicated staff to help in its reorganizatioin.

4 Ifl S; ve h s Manhattan DC Aide Regains Job; Improper Interrogation Is Rled MANHATTAN A Manhattan Developmental Center Mental Hygiene therapy aide, sspended last April, has been restored to his job after an arbitrator fond he had been interrogated improperly. The aide, William H. Dash, was assisted in his appeal by the Civil Service Employees Assn. Mr. Dash, charged with irreglarities in the performance of his job, was called pon to explain them In an interview with Manhattan DC Depty Director Albert Saqqal, Mental Health Ri formation Service attorney Tony Seymor land a center team leader. According to CSEA field representative Bart Brier, Mr. Dash was interrogated for more than one hor by the three. At no time dring the lengthy interrogation, Mr. Brier said, was Mr. Dash advised that he had a right to have a CSEIA representative with him or was the aide told that he had a right to have a copy, in writing, of his options in the sitation. Following the interrogation, Mr. Dash was sspended. When CSEA athorities learned of the incident. Mr. Dash was asked to file a contract grievance claiming improper interrogation and asking, as a remedy, that tall disciplinary charges be dropped and that he be reinstated. Pll back pay was al«) petition sd. The Department of Mental Hygiene, at a third step liearing, conceded tiiiit Mr. Dash's interrogation was improparly performad bt denied the relief soght. At an arbitration hear- Plan Additional L.I. Workshops MONTAUK The first workshop sponsored by Long Island Region I, Civil Service Employees Assn., was so warmly received by the 200 nion leaders who attended that similar events are planned in the near ftre, according to Region president Irving Plamenbaimi. Mr. Flamenbam said that another workshop may be schediiled as early as April. CSEA treasrer Jack Gallagher was on hand at Gmey's Inn here to officially install Region officers. No sfficiently formal occasion had been fond earlier to hold* the installation ceremony for the officers who were elected in Jne. The bsiness session dealt with lectres land qestion-and-answer periods on retirement pensions and social secrity benefits. Stenotype Academy Now In W Chester WHITE PLAINS Stenotype Academy has opened a branch school in White Plains at 140 Mamaroneck Ave. Melvin Eisner, Adademy director, said the new faciuty is the only school in Westchester Conty licensed by the state to teach stenotype. "Up ntil now, stdents wishing to stiidy stenotype reporting wold have to travel otside of Westchester Cbnty," he said. Administrator of the new branch is Marie Calise, a former Criminal and Spreme Cort reporter. Stenotype Academy in New York City is at 25tf Broad> way, opposite City Hall. ing before the State Office of Employee Relations, the Department reprssentatives again conceded the irreglarity of the interrogation bt insisted that the only proper remedial action wold be the sppression of evidence that Mr. Dash provided dring his interrogation.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1975 I^'O Diminishing Dollars IN a recent pitch for members, the National Taxpayers Union laid down some astonding assertions. First off, we want to state that we are not verifying the facts and figres given by the organization. In fact, some of the basic premises seem tterly nbelievable. For instance, to s it is all too obvios that the average family has never been able to retire with a qarter-million dollars socked in the bank. Nevertheless, as an imaginary sitation, some of the points are food for thoght. The projected sitation given by the National Taxpayers Union is based on the assertion that before taxes were raised to their present high level, the average family saved $1,000 a year. Over a 45-year work cycle this savings, with compond interest, shold accmlate to $230,000, NTU states, and this wold yield an annal income of $13,800 withot ever toching the principal. The organization then goes on to point ot that when inflation rose to 6 percent, it canceled ot the interest rate, redcing the vale of the savings to the amont actally deposited, $45,000. Going one step frther, NTU notes that with inflation raging ot of control, the actal vale of the savings ends p at abot $16,000, which wold yield a monthly income worth only abot $70. The assertion ends with a statement that this represents a loss of $1,000 a month in retirement income, pls more than "$200,000 of capital confiscated throgh reckless government." Responding to the soaring cost of living that affects s all, we have an initial gt reaction to believe the statement. Yet and we emphasize that we are not speaking with any fiscal expertise we believe the assertions have been taken throgh a time warp. Nevertheless, there seems to be some basic trth to the concept, even if it is exaggerated. Fewer Employees WITH the exception of Correctional Services, Health, Mental Hygiene, State Police and Taxation and Finance, all state departments and agencies will be nder the gn to redce their work forces if Governor Carey's bdget proposals are accepted by the Legislatre. His projections call for redction of 4,000 positions dring the coming year throgh attrition and another 3,000 jobs throgh a 3 percent redction in the work force by Feb. 29, These two categories are expected to save.the state $50 million, with $20 million of this acconted for by the attrition and the other $30 million by the redction in force. Now if yo divide those figres, yo come p with $5,000 per person saved throgh attrition, and $10,000 per person throgh layoff and firing. These figres strike s as evidence once again that it is the "little gy" who will be asked to make the greatest sacrifice to save the state. It is not that we expect Governor Carey to work for free, nor the State Legislators either for that matter, bt there is something pathetic abot the nation's highest paid governor (at $85,000 annally) and legislators (at $23,500 pls lls) apologetically wrecking the lives of thosands of small wage< earners, whose only mistake was in trsting the «ystem. (Contined from Pate 1) that nderlie Democratic approaches and Repblican responses to varios proposals for ptting the state's fiscal position in order. Governor Carey said that the state Is "on the edge of the abyss." This comment places the entire state in the same cliffhanger position that has pjaiged the City of New York since early in the year. It means possible defalt by some state agencies like the Hosing Financing Agency, possibly also defalts by other commnities and some local school boards. Retrenchment Of Services It also msans sharply increasing taxes laccompanied by sharp retrenchment in levels of state services. Governor Carey has already recommended redctions in the levels of welfare assistance -and ill the scope of Medicaid coverage. And from the point of view of the civil service eirployees, it obviosly imports a freeze on wages and hiring, ctbacks on fringe benefits, and invasions of pblic employee P'snsion fnds to a degree that lalarmed the pblic employees, as well as State Comptroller Arthr Levitt in his capacity as the trstee of the pension fnds. It is as yet nclear how mch of the State Administration proposals are objectives that the Administration hopes to achieve, and how mch of those are designed to leave room for compromise with Senate Majority Leader Wiaoren Anderson and Assembly Minority Leader Perry B. Dryea, Jr. Nor Is it clear that the opposition to the Governor's proposals expressed by those legislative leaders reflect fixed positions or are also designed to leave room for manever. All political leaders laire virtally agreed that a conservative mood is sweeping both the state and the nation. At the federal level, the report of the Gallp poll, showing a sbstantial increase'in Repblican and independent spport for the candidacy of former California Gov. Ronald Reagan over President Ford, confirms the mood that miost political leaders hiad already recognized. As interpreted by the political leaders, that mood alls for redctions in taxes and for ctbacks in the extent of services offered by varios levels of government. In a sense that mood sggests that the New Deal and Great Society programs, which have been the blwarks of DemccHatic victories in past years, are now obsolete. Where the trend is leading to remains highly ncertain, bt it is clear that middle-income grops are no linger willing to see the tax dollars go to waste on programs that have fallen far short of their promise. Elections Next Year Memlbers of the State Legislatre, all of whom mst face the voters next November, have very little stomach for the Imposition of higher state taxes at this time, or for cts in state aid fnds to localities, a step that wold largerly shift the brden of taxes from the state to local property owners. Prom that point of view. Democratic members of the State Senate and Assembly are no more willing than their Repblican colleages to impose additional state taxes or to vote for cts in varios (Contbwd OB F«cc 1) Civil Service Law & Yo By RICHARD GAR A Mr. Gaba is a member of the firm of White, Wabh and Gaba, P.C., and chairman of the Nassa Conty Bar Association Labor Law Committee. Psychological Injry In May of this year, the Cort of Appeals of the State of New York rendered Its decision In a workmen's compensation case where it was held that a psychological injry which was cased by psychic trama Is ccwnpensable nder the Workmen's Compensation Law. The claimant In that case began working for a department store In Febrary, 1968, as an investigator in the Secrity Department. Sbseqently, she became secretary to the Secrity Director. The record Indicates that the Secrity Director was sbject to intense pressre, especially dring the Christmas holiday season. The claimant testified that dring her several years of employment, her spervisor, the Secrity Director, wold become extremely agitated and nervos dring the holiday season. However, he wold relax and the symptoms wold disappear after the holiday season was over. The symptoms did not disappear, however, after the 1970 holidays. IN THE EARLY PART of 1971, the Director was concerned abot his job performance and his ability to keep p with the work. He began to brief the claimant on handling varios aspects of his job. She accepted these dties and attempted to ease his brden. The claimant recommended that the Director see a doctor. However, his condition persisted. On one day in Jne 1971, the Director called claimant on the office intercom and asked her to call the police to a particlar room In the bilding where they worked. She complied with his reqest and then was nable to reach him on the Intercom again. She went to the room he mentioned, only to find him lying In a pool of blood cased by a fatal self-inflicted gnshot wond in the head. The claimant became extremely pset and was nable to contine working that day. She became extremely depressed and was filled with gilt feelings becase of her Inability to prevent the sicide. She remained in bed for long periods of time, and finally was committed to a hospital by her physician, where she remained for two months receiving psychotherapy and medication. She was released for a short period and then re-admitted for electroshock treatments which lasted for several more weeks. Ultimately, she was discharged and resmed her employment with the department store. * * * THE CLAIM for workmen's compensation was granted by the Referee and affirmed by the Workmen's Compensation Board. The case was appealed to the Appellate Division, \niilch reversed, pointing ot that mental Injry which was cased solely by psychic trama Is not compensable nder the Workmen's Compensation stattes as a matter of law. The Cort of Appeals did not agree with this conclsion and reversed the Appellate Division, reinstating the decision of the Referee and the Workmen's Compensation Board. The cort pointed ot that workmen's compensation Is distingished from ordinary negligence cases. Tort liability is based on falt, whereas workmen's compensation is basically social labor legislation designed to shift the risk of loss of earning capacity cased by Indstrial accidents from the (Oontin d on Psf* 7)

7 RETIREMENT NEWS & FACTS Privacy Act Safegards IndividaVs By A. L. PETERS Records Yo mst be told why yo are asked to give information to the Social Secrity Administration and other Federal agencies nder a law that became effective in September. The intent of the law the Federal Privacy Act is to safegard information abot Individals kept In Government records and to Inform people of their rights when they are asked to give Information, according to Social Secrity officials here. Social Secrity rotinely gets information from people in administering retirement, srvivors and disability insrance. Medicare, the spplemental secrity Income program and black lng benefits. "Under the Privacy Act," a social secrity spokesman said, "people asked for information mst be told the stattory athority for the reqest, whether giving the Information Is volimtary or mandatory, why the information is needed, how it will be sed, and the effects of not providing it." A fact sheet explaining the law generally Is given to people before starting an interview in social secrity offices, he said. The Privacy Act restricts Government se of social secrity nmbers. Any Federal, state or local agency that asks for an individal's social secrity nmber mst cite Its athority for the reqest, say whether giving the nmber is volntary or mandatory, and tell how the nmber will be sed, according to the spokesman. The law also assres people of greater access to Government records of information abot themselves, he said. * * New York City employees will get $2.8-biUion in fringe benefits and pensions this year, a report 'from the Office of Management and Bdget indicates. This is 55 percent of the $4.5- billion payroll. The srvey points ot that fringe benefits in private indstry average abot 20 percent. For the federal government, the figre is estimated to be 26 percent. * Th3 New York City Retirement Board took action last week on 904 retirement applications at th3ir December meeting. 144 were for Retirement Withot Option, 105 for service retirement nder Optdon 1; 40 nider Opitdon 2; 45 nder Option 3; 53 nder Option 4; 156 nder Option 4-2; 23 nder Option 4-3.

Veterans Administration information Service Call (202) What's Yor Opinion QUESnON A hill i» pending before Congre»» to repeal the Hatch Act which ban* federal employee* from taking part in political campaigns. What do yo think? Shelly Rokeach, messenger: "As far as rnning for pblic office, I wold say yes. Bt as far as affiliating with a political organization, I wold be a little wary of it. There shold be a little difference somehow In affiliating or rnning on a line. An affiliation is a smaller tie. The implications are that in a real laffiliation that he may Inflence the government to the frtherance of the party. That's why I'm wtary of It. I wold say rnning on a line, there is a little abstract difference between rnning on the party line when yo're saymg rnning for the Repblican Party and really being affiliating with the ideals of the Repblican Party. Obviosly they will be able to gain more power and more monetiary benefits and I think that's fine. Private enterprise is lobbying and they have candidates. I don't see why pblic people sholdn't be allowed to do this. I again wold make that abstract difference in rnning on a party line and being affiliated with a party. Somehow rnning land being Involved In the Ideals of a party wold be a little different." Anthony Smith, exective assistant, Welfare General: "I do not believe the Hatch Act shold bs repealed. I was a federal employee myself for 16 years. I think it is, both on federal as well as the state and local levels, a very important aspect of preserving the integrity of the civil service system. I think there is a potential conflict of interest, particlarly pertaining to areas where large contracts are apt to be let. It is an extension of the same problem we see when senior officials in the military establishment leave and end p working for the very sppliers from whom they have been prchasing for the previos 10 or 15 years. I also happen to believe the civil service system is not sacrosanct and isn't anywhere near as effective as it shold be. It Isn't a merit system and It oght to be. I think there are many, mlany changes that need to be made. Bt one of them is not pennittlng civil servants to rn for pblic office." THE PLACE State Office Bilding, 270 Broadway. Manhattan OPINIONS Angelo Petromelis, sperrising investigator: "I feel that they oght to repeal the Hatch Act. The federal government has a cople of million employees today. To deny that large a segment of the poplation of their rights to political activity is wrong. I can nderstand where certain positions that are sensitive to policy-making shold be exclded bt overwhelmingly, most of yor governmental positions 'are of no conseqence. Civil Service employees are jst every-day working people and they shold have jst as mch right to political activity as anyone else. Especially in trying to get ahead in government. Civil service people have to take the test, get on the list, and get appointed from the list, so no matter how mch political activity yo're involved in It's not going to help yo. For instiance, I'm a political district leader in the Democratic Party and I'm a civil service employee and I never got anything ot of it. Everything I've ever gotten, I've had to take tests for and get high enogh on a list to get appointed." Robert Easter, clerk for BCW: "I feel that anyone who is qalified and has the right backing shold be able to rn for pblic office any office he feels that he is qalified for. I think repealing the Hatch Act will aid pblic employees In having a voice in government. I feel that New York City cold contribte by coming ot and giving the facts abot voting. When some city employees are rnning for something, workers can come ot and back them 100 percent. The federal government can help too, the same way, by giving workers the opportnity to go ot and find ot abot their co-workers. They cold effect some good changes for other pblic employees. They are ot with the people doing the same type of work and working closely with these people." CiQ M? > V*? n v> a. (t 3 1 (Contined from Page 6) state aid programs to localities. Moreover, there is very little prospect that the Assembly, which Is controfted by the Democrats, will move on any sch programs, withot some assrance that the State Senate, imder Repblican control, will go along. This circmstance pts the problem sqarely in the laps of Governor Carey and Senator Anderson. They were able to reach an accommodation In a statesmanlike manner in the soltion of New York City's problens. However, it may be an entirely different matter to find a middle grond on the state level, becase the Impiact of any soltion will be most seriosly felt by Repblican legislators from pstate ai-eas, who fond no difficlty in Increasing New York City taxes, bt may find it impossible to vote for iiacreases in state taxes.

The Officers who were ordiered to retake Attica jstly deserve a defense provided by the Steite of New York; however, the State ha«s not seen it fit to provide an adeqate defense at this time. Since the Staite will not provide adeqate fnds for the Officers defense we, the over two hndired CSEA members of the Depajrtmernt of Correction, tihknk it Is entb-ely appropriate foa- the CSEA leadership to contribte to the Officers' defense. We take this stand with the following in mind: First, the defense of the State Police and the Coneotton Offloetrs is ome amd the same. This is impoirtant to remember sisks the Correotiion Officers are indeed members of the CSEA. Second, these Officers went into a sitation created amd conitnolled by the Sta;te. Haid the Officers been allowed to retake the facility iimmediateily rather tihan after a prodoaiged occpation, lives wold not have been lost. Thirdly, we think it i's time to consider wlhose dde we shall take. Thie convioted oilmimals which rehellied and cased a kxss of life, were confined for acts of violence against hardworking people of the State, many of whom aaie CSEA membea''s. Lastly, everyone speaks of the inmates killed in the retakinig of the facility. Have they all forgotten that Officers and Staff also died that day?

In view of the fact of its special natre, the Workmen's Compensation Law shold be constred liberally in favor of the claimant. * THE WORKMEN'S Compensation Law deals with accidental injry. However, the term is not defined in the stattes. It Is necessary to look to the cort decisions in order to determine what an accidental Injry is. The cort pointed ot that these Injries fall into three basic categories. First, psychic trama which prodces a physical injry; second, a physical traimia which prodces a psychological injry; and third, a psychic trama which prodces a psychological injry. The case before the cort fell into the third category. The corts have consistently recognized the principle that an injry cased by emotional stress or shock may be accidental within the meaning of the Workmen's Compensation Law. The corts have also niformly sstained awards to claimants who incrred psychological disability or disorders as a reslt of a physical Impact. * * * THE COURT, therefore, felt that it was a logical conclxision to reach that a psychological injry cased by a psychic traina (being a combination of case and effect of the first two categories) is also compensable nder the Workmen's Compensation Law. The decision follows the majority of jrisdictions in the United States and also follows the law in England. In this for to two decision, the majority opinion was written by Jdge Wachtler. There was a dissent by Jdge Breitel, who pointed ot that a decision sch as this might open the floodgates to claims of psychological Injry cased by psychic trama in areas where the Workmen's Compensation system wold be overbrdened by claims of this natre.

By MARVIN BAXLET BATAVIA Importance of the Professional-Scientific- Technical Bargaining Unit vote was emphasized by Civil Service Employees Assn. vicepresident Robert Lattimer as he spoke to several hndred nion leaders here last month. Mr. ijaittimier, who serves as president of CSEA's Western Reg'ion VI, rged CSEA members to get ot and vote In order to protect their rights. Resorting to sarcasm, the yongest of CSEA's tsn statewide officers analyzed the kind of organisation that the Pblic Employees Federation wold be offering Professional-Scientific- Technical employees of the state. He pointed ot that there are two APL-CIO nions that dominate the five nion collaboration known as PEP. These laire the United Teachers and the Service Employees International Union, Mr. Lattimer noted that "Albert Shanker took the teachers ot on strike, and he did miraclos things for them: it cost them 45 mintes of prep time. "Mr. Siianker's grop is joined by SEIU," he contined. "This is the same organization that tried to organize Moongate Nrsin«Home (in St. Lawrence Conty). So Moongate fired the employees, land PERB rled No Election." Mr. Lattimer, who is also a mem'ber of the PST negotiating team, briefed delegates on the progress of contract negotiations. "We coldn't even agree on grond rles at the first meeting," he said "The state is being very adamant.

Negotiations for the Aximlnistratlve, Instittional and Operational Units are contining, however. Even thogh CSEA is the accredited PST representative, It is prevented by law from proceeding with negotiations imtll the challenging organization, PEIP, has been trned back. In the election this month, CSEA received the most votes, bt an nsally large nmber of void, disptable and "No Union" ballots prevented the Association from recording the absolte majority reqired by law. Therefore, a second election date has been set for next month. At that time, only CSEA and PEP will appear on the ballot, with no alternative boxes.

Registration nmbers are needed in filing the reports. Application form SS4 for the registration nmber is available from looal IRS offices, he said. The secretaries seminar was handled by CSEA compter services manager David Tallcott and Bffalo Labor chapter 352's Elaine Todd.

City of Oswego nit has filed an improper practice charge with the Pblic Employment Relations Board against the city. Ha rm an Swits, CSEA collective bargaining specdalist, said, "It is apparent tihat the City of Osiwego appointed a negotiaiting team which did not have tihe aitihority to enter into a tembatdve agreement, and pon the action of the Concil Dec. il, cold not, amd refsed to effectively recommend, a proposed setitlemenit for the City employees. Bendet, right, head of the nion's NYC Region II, as he goes over agenda with CSEA pblic relations specialist Randolph V. Jacobs. The mobile nit had stopped by the regional office in downtown Manhattan before toring varios sites where CSEA members are employed in the five-conty area. "It Is apparent that Charlies J. Ga'niim, tihe hiiired consilbairat from Bffalo, who is not ooniversant witlh the problems with the City of Oswego, has, after mtomths of negotiations, maxle certain proposallis to the Coxioil obviating the proposed aigreemenit," Mr. Swits cooktiimied. "Thiia action reslted aifter for months of negotiiiations aovl nmeros meetings that appeared to be progressing saitdisfactorlly before the iiniterjeotion of Mr. Ganiim. "lb wold appear that tihe Common Coimdl was trying to lead the City of Oswego empjoyees to believe.that their appointees, niamely Gene Saloga and Pal Miller, had the atliorlty to negotiate in good faith. It Is now clear ilhat predicated on the Dec. 11 Common Ooncil decision, the city ajldermen have no concern whateoever for the inddvidal City of Oswego employees and that, by theti- very act, have failed to provide good fajiith negotdatdons throghot this whole peidod of time. Wle are diismaiyed by the trn of events after nearly reaching what we beueved to be a fair and eqiitable settlement otf the contract," Mr. Swits conclded.

The Athority, said Mr. Del- Bello, "reviewed the patrol posts and their safety criteria and indicated they wold provide fnds to pay only for 25 positions, necessitating the redction In the patrol force by 11 men. If the conty had not agreed, there probably wold have been no contract at all with the EHPA and the State Police wold have taken over or parkway patrol. We wold have lost all 36 jobs for or men." The EHPA contracts with Westchester Conty to provide patrol services on the Saw Mill River Parkway, the Htchinson River Parkway and the Cross Conty Parkv^iay. Mr. DelBello said that In other conty departments, staff cts can be absorbed In large part by attrition, retirement and vacancies. "Unfortnately, there has been almost no employee trnover In the Parkway Police Department, so that the redctions In positions mst mean lan eqal nmber of layoffs."

Ble Cross benefits have been increased to provide coverage for hemodialysis treatment frnished In ot-patient departments of hospitals when ordered by a physician. The new provisions of the plan allow enrollees to join federally qalified health maintenance organizations (HMO) in lie of one of the enrollment options now available nder the state plan. However, at this time, there are no federally approved HMOs in the state. If eventally more than one HMO Is approved in the sam«area of the state, the state reserves the right to contract with only one sch organization. Ble Shield benefits now embrace expenses Incrred for removal of stres, plastic casts and slmlilar dressings applied as a reslt of prior ot-patient care.

16 r>. Ov a (S (A V s H Dd Q < U > CTi ^ > M CJ Drg Abse Sttters F ing SIC Criticism Find CSCA A Chmpion (Special to The Leader) ALBANY The Civil Service Employees Assn. has come to the defense of nearly 4,000 employees of the State Office of Drg Services in the wake of derogatory comments made abot them by the State Investigation Commission. C8BA colilectiiive bangadtiliing specialist Thiomias Ldmidiein r^red SIC to p or shiit p" on its csdarges thiat ODAS employees cften vloflmte ri!es of dfliscipiamie it illheir facilditiles. He,tieiiimcd tfliie SIC lotiveigbligiaititoai' a "wlitch-hot." "These emiplioiyees have a oooitraot wditlh a dssclipliiniairy procecire spelled o^rt Jin black and wmte.;' Mr. LtmJem said. "If SIC has any pnooif of lits auegaitdonb, tb can baing formiai chafrgres agaitist specific membems and then try to nmaibe tlhem stdck. Tiie way ithey're openaitdmg niow, they're Jst comilinig in amd takling pat-«lhoits alt diediioaitjed employees amd rmmdimg away aigain." Qlies Spoonihor, diailimiain cft the sbaitewidie CSBA liaboa--inan:- a'gemedit oommilit/tee for ODAS employiees. agreed with Mr. Linden. 'Distorted View' "SIC has gdyeffi tihe pbmc a ddfirtorted view of ODAS employees," he aaiki. "They brltng p wild dharges abot abse of cuen/ts, bt itlhey never menitdon the work We do in drg oonselung and edicatdian, or tihe sccesses we've had in gdtrtinig oar cltenits thedr lidiglh-scihool eql/valency dlplomas, or jn getting tihem back toto sodety in prodictlive jobs. The typicail ODAS employee is a haird-working, conoeimed person. I didn't see that in any of the newspaper acconts of the SIC chairges." Mr. Linden aiueged SIC has a hmxtty of making nfonded charges. In 1972, he noted, thie commissflon created a fnor in tihe press wlrth iits extensive investdgiaition of offdcdajs in tihe pstate vloiliage of Sairanac Lake. However, itihe conity district attorney fond no basiis in- any of the SIC reports for tihe Issance of Indaotmienibs. 'Shot In The Dark' "There's mo more sbstanice in these new charges than ithere wiasi in tihe case of Sairanac Lake," Mr. Linden said. "It's jist anottier shot In the dark by a grop of people desperaitedy itrying to jstdly itttnedr own existence. There isnl one person on tihe SIC who knows tihe sug'htest bit aboit drg abse prevention or reixabiiliitatton." SIC cnittelsm of employees toched on all ODAS fadillttes arond the staite, bt menftloned most freqenitly were tihe drgabse rehablu'taitdon cemters a;t OtdsvdiUe, Ray Broolk. Masten Park amd Tanaiwamda. Mr. Linden pointed oit that one of tihe biggest problems ailleged by SIC overstatfflng was drawn fitxm informaition over a year old. Thds, he sadd, was a fntlhtr example of tihe irresponjsibiliity of the coonmlssdon. T^ieire is now an avera«e of one coiiiaseldr for every 25 cuemts engaged in a canitdnos process of edcaition, traaitniemt, and relhabiill'tation of di-g absers. Mr. Spoonhor added, "Or clkhn'ts are often tihe prodct of a terrible home life and years of oointaot) witih the drg scene. In this tiditait^, aitnost isnpossible to get as mch staff as yo nsied to hsilp them. The empi'oyee's of ODAS are dediioaited to lihe reihabili'baitdion of tihe ddenits at tlieiir fiacill'tiies, ^and tihey work laird to achie've ttiiat goal. I am sre tihat itihe SIC report of disciplinary abses anid overstafflng will be proved wrong again, and the employees wiu be vindicated."

Dtchess' Members Receive $50,000 Strike Fine Prse ALBANY The Civil Service Employees Assn.'s Board of Directors last week advanced $50,000 from its contingency fnd to the 1,000 Dtchess Conty CSEA nit members who condcted a sccessfl strike last Jly. The money, combined with fnds donated by varios individals and CSEA chapters, is intended to offset fines incrred by the workers drimg the week-long strike. The fines one week's gross salary per worker were to be dedcted from their net paychecks of Dec. 12 and Dec. 26. Thanks to their nion's action, everyone will receive an amont eqivalent to their normal paychecks on those days. The Board nanimosly approved the resoltion, which was offered by CSEA Region n president Sol Bendet and CSEA exective vice-prgsident William McGowan, and seconded by Region in president James J. Lennon. Dtchess Conty chapter president Ellis Adams, accepting the check from CSEA on behalf of the Dtchefs nit members, said, "It is heart-warming to see this nion rally behind its members at a time of great need. Thanks to the bipartisan spport we received from both the State and Conty Divisions of CSEA, it's going to be a bright Cliristmas, after all, for or members." Dtchess Conty nit members walked off their jobs after the conty administration reneged on a negotiation settlement last Jly. It was the largest strike by conty employees in New York Stiate history. The coimty finally capitlated after the nion had broght conty operations to a standstill for a week, and legislators ratified the dispted contract. However, the conty went ahead with procedres nder the state's Taylor Law and fined each striker two days' play for each day on strike. "We are going to make every effort to replenish the CSEA contingency fnd," Mr. Adams vowed. "We are starting a campaign immediately to make sre there will always be enogh money in that fnd to ensre that when workers are forced to strike, they will not have to sffer nfair economic hardship at the hands of the Taylor Law." Bernard Veit, president of the Dtchess Conty nit, added, "This action shows what CSEA is all abot. What other pblic employees' nion has ever stood behind its members 100 percent, as CSEA has done? Or nion has backed s p all the way, not only with moral spport, bt also with finiancial spport. "We are gratefl for what or nion has done for s." Assail Cohaes Mayor In Pact Talks Stoppage COHOES A Civil Service Employees Assn. field representative described himself as "shocked at the irresponsible attitde" of Cohoes Mayor Virginia McDonald in refsing to contine contract negotiations with city workers. Mayor McDonald's term will end Jan. 1 and the CSEA official, James Cooney, said she "has a responsibility to the citizens of Cohoes to give fll service as mayor even in her last days of power. "She has sddenly refsed to contine negotiations with all the city workers, so that come Jan. 1, Mayor-elect Ronald Canestrari will be tied p with crcial negotiations that cold possibly harm the working relationship of the new ladministration and its employees," Mr. Cooney declared. "Mayor McDonald seems to be saying, 'I don't care!', now that she has lost her position," Mr. Cooney added. "The citizens of Cohoes shold remember that any problems they have with pblic employees in the ftre are to be blamed on the Citizens' Party wlio are proving to be sore losers; they shold not be blamed on the pblic employees of the city," Mr. Cooney conclded.
