Union Strengths Emphasized To Sllivan Crop At Concord KIAMBSHA LAKE State CSEA leaders stressed the importance of the channels of commnication with local pplitical sbdivisions, maintained over the years by the Association, in a frank discssion with Sllivan Conty chapter members on the conseqences of switching to another nion. The personal contacts, the knowledge and experience gained throgh years of patient nego^ tiations, are all wiped ot when there is a change to another bargaining agency. The new nion has to start from scratch and the pblic employees they represent are the losers becase the switch creates "a whole new ball game" between the employees and the governmental agency they are negotiating with, the SlUvan chapter members were told. The discssion was held at the Hotel Concord March 24 prior to the opening of the statewide special delegates meeting. Dr. Theodore C Wenzl, state CSEA president, headed the list of speakers who addressed the Sllivan chapter members at the Concord session. The meeting was caljpd becase of a challenge attempt against CSEA by a rival nion in Sllivan and neig<hboring conties. The State OSEA president said he has been told maiiy times that CSEA was on its way ot Roll Ot The Bandages First Aid Classes Begin In Albany, Bffalo ALBANY Initial corses in a first aid training program for employees in the state's Administrative Services bargaining nit, as called for in their contract agreement, got nder way last month in the Albany and Bffalo areas. * These corses have been implemented by the Civil Service Employees Assn.'s Administrative Service Safety com- INSIDE THE LEADER CSEA CONVENTION NEWS AND PHOTOS Report of the President Edcation Committee Insrance Committee Report Report Social Services Committee Report Photo Pge Of Convention Scenes See Page See Page See Page See Page See Page 16 mittee in conjnction with the State Office of Employee Relations, and will be given over a period of time to Administrative Unit members throghot the state. The money appropriation for first aid corses is a niqe featre of the Administrative Unit contract. The contract provides $5,000 for this prpose in each year of the contract. The contract also provides $4,000 for first aid (Contined from Face 8) yet "Here we are at the Concord getting ready to welcome a big" statewide delegates meeting. We are far from being down for the cont and instead we are jst growing stronger and stronger." Manny Vitale, collective bargainlr^ specialist for local government, pointed ot that one of the criticism's of CSEA is that "it is slow." He said: "CSEA is a thoroghly democratic nion and democracy is slow. The price yo pay for going fast is dictatorship." Mr. Vitale, who onoe served as a staffer for the, APL-CIO, told the Sllivan Conty members that the progress made by CSEA in organiislng pblic employees sin<«the passage of the Taylor Law in 1967 is a "remarkable accomplishment." "There is no more effective laibor force these days than CSEA," Mr. Vitale said. He pointed ot that he had often asked Arthr Bolten, one ol the conty CSEA officers who defected to another nion, how things were in the Sllivan Conty chapter and the answer was "jst fine." "Things weren't jst fine when I came to Sllivan Conty for years ago and discovered a nmber of problems de to weak leadersihip. We helped correct these problems and we always were wluing and still are willing to come down hei-e and help wherever we can in any way we are needed by (Contined on Page 9) Wilson Proposals Toch Pensions, Death Benefits OFFERS OLIVE BRANCH ON CAREER LAI>DERS By MARVIN BAXLEY KIAMESHA LAKE Gov. Malcolm Wilson, appearing for the first time in his position as the state's chief exective before the statewide convention here of the Civil Service Employed Assn., otlined portions of his program for pblic employees. Pointing ot that in 1938, when he first entered pblic life, fll-time Mental Hygiene employees were paid $75 a month $900 a year, the Governor then noted that CSEA efforts throgh the years ^re responsible, in very large part, for bringing jstice to these people. He then proceeded to otline several isses of importance to pblic employees, with pensions, retirement, death benefits and career ladders as items of prime interest. Briefly, these proposals are: Temporary pension iben^efits shold be extended to Jne 30, 1976, to coincide with the moratorim on pension negotiations imposed to the same date. Crrently the temporary benefits are de to expire on Jne 30 of this year.

3 Is Challenged On School Calendars ALBANY The nilateral establishment of school calendars at Ridge Hill, Arthrkill and Otisville rehabilitation centers by the Drg Abse Control Commission, after an arbitrator's decision that these school calendars were matters for discssion between the DACJC and the Civil Service Employees Assn., has reslted in CSElA's lodging a protest with DACJC and petitioning the arbitrator to re-enter the case. On Jan. 21, as a reslit of three'grievances filed by varios grops of teachers employed by the DiAOC at Ridge Hill, Arthrkill and Otisville, CSBA secred an arbitrator's stiplation that the DiAOC and CSEA wold discss dration of the , and school calendars. Contained in the stiplation was the provision that If the discssions were not fritfl, they wold again be referred to arbitrator Marice D. Benewitz for appropriate action. CSEA engaged in discssions PAG Confab De ALBANY The Civil Service Employees Assn.'s Statewide Legislative and Political Action Committee will meet for the first time with the six Regional CSEA Legislative and Political Action Committee chairmen on April 11, at 1 p.m. at CSEA Headqarters here, to discss mtiial problems and arrange for the cooperative development of programs on both the Statewide and Regional basis. The special meeting was arranged as the reslt of discssions at the Statewide committee's meeting held dring the recent special CSEA delegates meeting held at the Concord Hotel, Klamesha Lake. with the department on three separate occasions and proposed a 181-day school calendar. The DACC's alleged refsal to recognize the legitimate Interests of the teachers' committee prompted the committee. In complete defiance of the arbitrator's stiplation, a memorandm was issed by DAOC on March 7 to all facility directors stating what the school calendar wold be for the three years in qestion and inferring that CSBA was a party to this action. Thomas J. Linden, CSEIA collective negotiating specialist assigned to the committee, stated that "pon receiving this memo, an immediate protest was lodged with the nacc, highlighting the fact that this was bt another in a long series of nilateral and arbitrary determinations made with regard to edcational staff concerns." Mr. Linden said, "Stephen Daley (director of persormel for nacc) and John Randall (director of labor relations for DAOC) have, by their actions, vmited all of the instittion edcators in the DACC. CSEA doe5 not intend to sit Idly by while DACC rns rogh^od over or teachers, or contracts and Mr. Benewitz's stiplations. "We are petitioning Mr. Benewitz again so that he will be called back to arbitrate or mediate the dispte as provided for in the agreement signed by the state and CSEA. Hopeflly this action will get s back to the negotiating table." Injormation for the Calendar may be sbmitted directly to THE LEADER. It shold inclde the date, time, place, address and city for the fnction.

TUESDAY, APRIL 2, Fair Exchange Two weeks ago, delegations of employees from all over the state descended on the state Capital to demonstrate for employee career ladders. Chanting "We want Wilson," the demonstrators marched arond Capital Park and broke p in small grops to lobby with their home-town legislators. A representative delegation met with Melvin Osterman, director of the Office of Employee Relations. It was a coldly miserable day, and the demonstrators accomplished some of their goals, sch as gaining pblicity for their case, showing the strength of their nmbers and meeting directly with their legislators no mean feat for many of these people, who, throgh the years, have come to believe that government is only for the privileged few. It was a gratifying experience, still the chant for Wilson went nanswered althogh not nheard. Last week, at the statewide convention of the Civil Service Employees Assn., the Governor took his corage in hand to face what was potentially a hostile adience. Fortnately, the Governor also took a list of proposals of imiportance to pblic employees, and they responded favorably. He toched on projected recommendations on pensions, retirement and death benefits. Then he held ot an olive branch on career ladders, by offering to extend the letter of agreement by the State and CSEA to investigate possible implementation of career ladders. Reaction by the delegates was appreciative, althogh garded, and many grops later cacsed to assess their reactions. Representatives of the state and CSEA were expected to meet before expiration of the agreement at midnight of March 30. Since reslts of that meeting were not known at Leader presstime, it wold not be appropriate to comment at this time. Bt we do applad the willingness of state employees to trn ot on their own time to make their feelings known to the Capital hierarchy, and we applad Governor Wilson's efforts to reach some accommodation with these employees. Pblic employees want to like the Governor. With his record of pblic service, they are hopefl that he will be favorable to their case. Perhaps that very eagerness to think of him as their Governor, as many civil servants thoght of Nelson Rockefeller before him, will be his greatest hazard come election time. It's hman natre to be gratefl for favors from someone when it is not expected. Bt people's feelings are easily hrt when they are rejected by someone they like, and one offense can be fatal for a politician. The Governor's meeting with CSEA Delegates was an interesting example of political astteness. We'll be waiting to hear how CSEA leaders will react.

N.Y (Contined from Pa^e 1) Prosectors who have taken p arms in the fight against political corrption, venality and graft have freqently been cataplted into high political office. Most notable among these was the late Gtov. Thomas E. Dewey. Criosly enogh Dewey, a Repblican, was appointed a special prosector by Democratic Gov. Herbert H. Lehman to clean p Democratic corrption in New York Conty. In 1940, Dewey almost defeated Lehman In the race for Governor. He finally became Governor and lost the Presidency by a hair's breadth. Sccessfl Prosectors Others who achieved notable sccess as pirosectors were Senator Estes Kefaver, who was a candidate for President of the United States, the late Senator Robert P. Kennedy, Robert Morgentha, who was a candidate for Governor of or state, and Jstice Brton Roberts dring the years that he served as District Attorney of Manhattan. It was Dewey's work as a prosector that led to the designation of Frank Hogan as a nonpartisan District Attorney to.scceed Dewey when he was elected Governor. Hogan's long tenre as District Attorney and his sccessfl crsade against corrption and crime are now legendary. In another fight against corrption Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller, predating Watergate charges of corrption, appointed Marice H. Nadjari as a Special Prosector to eliminate corrption in the Administration of Jstice System and designated Spreme Cort Jstice John M. Mrtaffh over all matters relating to Nadjari's investigations. Across the river in New Jersey, another prosector whose name has been flashing across television screens and in newspaper headlines is former U. S. Attorney Herbert J. Stem of Newark, whose dedicated drive against crooked politicians and grafting bsinessmen has elevated him to the Federal bench as a District Cort Jdge. As a prosector. Stern chalked p an impressive record cleaning p a cesspool of corrption, which makes it almost appear as if virtally every elected official in the State of New Jersey was on the take. He prooted two Secretaries of State, two State Treasrers, eight City Mayors, a Congressman, and some 70 other pblic officials and political bosses. The story of Stem's fight against corrption is told by Pal Hoff.- man in a book called "Tiger in the Cort,^' pblished by Playboy Press. Hoffman is a former political writer for the New York Post, and is well known in Albany circles as a former legislative correspondent for that l>aper. Now a free-lance writer on legal sbjects, Hoffman graphically details the fll scope of Stem's investigations and the extent of the corrption Stem exposed. Everything For A Price According to this accont, everything in New Jersey had a price and everytliing was for sale. Permits to operate parking lots, licenses for peddlers, contracts for pblic constrction projects, bilding permits. Jobs in the pblic service, everything was p for sale. Armed with nothing more than a sbpoena and a keen investigative mind. Civil Service Law & Yo By RICHARD GABA Mr. Gaba is a member of the firm of White, Walsh and Gaba, F.C., and chairman of the Nassa Conty Bar Association Labor Law Committee. A Case of Mnicipal Bickering A DISPUTE arose recently in the City of Utica between the PBA and the City. In that case, a collective bargaining contract had been negotiated between the PBA and the Mayor of the City of Utica calling for certain economic benefits, inclding wage increases. The contract negotiated by the Mayor was placed before the Common Concil of the City of Utica, which is the legislative body of that city, for approval. The term of the agreement was Jan. 1, 1974, to Dec. 31, It was redced to writing and signed by the Mayor. The Common Concil voted down the contract by a 5 to 4 vote. Shortly thereafter, the corporation consel for the City of Utica presented the salaries contained in the new contract to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment for approval. By a 4 to 1 vote the Board of Estimate approved the new salaries sbject to the rling of the cort, becase a qestion arose as to whether or not the Board had athority to vote on the salaries of City employees even thogh the Common Concil had not passed the contract. IN THIS LAWSUIT broght to determine this particlar isse, the PBA contended that the Board of Estimate and Apportionment has the exclsive right to set salaries of officers and employees of the City prsant to Section 74 of the Second Class Cities Law. In fact. Section 74 does make sch provision. However, there is another statte to be considered and that is Section 204 of the Civil Service Law, which provides as follows: "Any written agreement between a pblic employer and an employee organization determining the terms and conditions of employment of pblic employees shall contain the following notice in type not smaller than the largest type sed elsewhere in sch agreement: "It is agreed by and between the parties that any provision of this agreement reqiring legislative action to permit its implementation by amendment of law or by providing the additional fnds therefor, shall not become effective ntil the appropriate legislative body has given approval.'" In the cort's opinion, the Board of Estimate and Apportionment is not a legislative body bt is a panel composed of the Mayor, the Comptroller, the Corporation Consel, the President of the Common Concil, and the City Engineer, all as set forth in Section 71 of the Second Class Cities Law. It was pointed ot in this case that all prior contracts between the PBA and the City, starting in 1969, were sbmitted to the legislative body of the City of Utica for approval or disapproval. All of the prior decisions in this area indicate that legislative approval is reqired before the fiscal terms of a contract may be implemented. The cort held that the contract in its present form did not constitte a valid obligation of the City of Utica bt reqired legislative approval of the Common Concil. THE COURT SUGGESTED that in its opinion the parties shold retrn to the negotiating table, and if agreement is not reached in the reqired time, they proceed frther nder Section 209 of the Civil Service Law referring to impasses. The cort was also carefl to point ot that its decision referred to this particlar contract only and shold not be read to abridge any rights of the Board of Estimate and Apportionment to City salaries, compensation and working conditions for those City officers and employees not covered within the bargaining nit represented by the PBA. The petition of the PBA, therefore, was dismissed. John E. Creadon, PBA v. City of Utica, 351 NYS 2d 844 (Spreme Cort, Oneida Conty). Stem scceeded in shaking p the New Jersey political stmctre that had norished since the days of the notorios Mayor John Hage of Jersey City, in the Thirties, who rled over the State as if it were a medieval fiefdom. In his excellent book. Hoffman reconts the tenacios skill of Stern in the cort room in examining and in cross-examining witnesses, in his detailed marshalling of the facts, and in presenting his evidence in a straightforward manner to the jry. Trained as a reporter, the Hoffman book is a fast-moving, tightly written accont of Stern's rooting ot of political corrption, which shold encorage citizens of other areas to take necessary steps to clean p their own governments. What Stern proved in New Jersey is that an arosed pblic, led by a forcefl and imaginative prosector, can liberate itself from political thieves and grafters.

8 00 s; H (N TS < O* s s H fid Q U U > fid a cn Report Of The President r^e follovring report ims delivered by the president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl. In these very chfficilt times, OSiEA Is a dominant factor In shiaplng the destiny of New York State government employees at all levels witih regard to their terms and conditions of employment. Formal, legally recognized operations and strctring of employee laibor organizations in state and local governments is a relatively new and rapidly expanding complex activity. Under these circmstances, OSEA, in its leadership role, is bond to be sbject to misnderstandings, gripes and the lack of patience from varios qarters from time ito time. With merit, it can be said that CSEA Is not perfect, bt is mdgihty good. CSEA Is ever alert in adapting and adjxistlng to the demands and needs of the times In serving its total membership on an Individal basis in the best possible measre. The important matters of service to tftie memibers and contined membership growth are constantly given top priority at am times. Since the Delegate Convention of last Septemiber, art«ifl and organizational realignments have been m^ade wherever possible in accordance with the mandates of restrctring. Additional personnel, both In the field and at headqarters, are continosly being recrited. Regional offices are being established and stafifed throghot tihe state. Improved bsiness practices and new eqipment have been and are being incorporated in the service operations wtienever and wherever the need arises. Becase of the sdden, nforeseen and extraordinary inflationary developments copled witih the energy crisis, CiSBA is seeking every way possible to get cootxpensatory adjiistments in its present state contract, which has yet two more years of dration. Edcation Committee Report The following report was delivered by committee chairman Celeste Rosenkranz. Other committee members are Irene Amaral, Stanley Briggs, Virginia Colgan, Richard Fila, Mary Lazon, Marie Romanelli, Pat Timineri, David Wall and Stephen Zarod. Contining efforts of the Edcation Commdttee have been directed toward staff and memiberslhip training, with special emphasis on grievance procedres, arbitration and responsibilities of the shop steward. Orientation programs for new field representatives have been expanded, with field experience nder the regional sp>ervisor inclded as a phase of the program prior to beginning service. The Committee, working in cooperationvvlth the regional vice-presidents and chapter presidents, are being advised of the training need in eadh area so that membership training can be co-ordinated, schedled, and given when mpost convenient to the memberdilp. The following training sessions have been completed since or last report: STAFF TRAINING Three days seminar at Cooperstown Grievance Procedres and Arbitration with the cooperation of Cornell University School of Indoistrial Relations; two one-half sessions Albany and Syracse devoted to contract in^terpretatlon and membership recritmenit; orientation program for new field representatives; regional field spervisors 'training and work session devoted to state-osea Employee Benefits Training Program. MEMBERSHIP TRAINING Shop steward and membership recritment programs for Capital EWstriot region; Workmen's Compensation workshop on grievance procedre, officers responsibilities, shop stewards; On the crrent leemative front, a strong drive is lider ^y toward the estaibufilhnient of asency ahx^ provisions within the framework of the Taylor Law. In the pension field, CSEA contines to be alert to state le«lslfttlve and exective activities. Sccess has been attained in warding off tihe regressive recammendations of the Kinzel Commission. At all times, the hard foght gains CSEA has achieved over the years mst be protected in every way possible. With regard to employee representation nder the Taylor Law, CBEA on the state level has been sccessfl in most instances in defeating the attempts of varios segmenits of private sector nions to gain control. Now it has been made known that a concerted drive is nder way by yet another branidh of these private sector nions to win over some of the conty division grops in the CSEA fold. This can and will be stopped. With confidence and knowhhow, this experience again in sccessflly warding off otside competitors can only make CSEA stronger than ever.

The Governor stated his intention to sbmit legislation to rectify the sitation. To bring the rling on 90- days' continos service prior to death to be eligible for death benefits into line with the spirit of the law, the Governor said he will reconnend that this be chai^;ed to 90 days of continos service any time within the year prior to death. This wold cover people who may have gone off payroll for one day, or who may die soon after their retirement, bt before their pensions have become effective.

This mst be done, he said, withot abolishing the merit and fitness exemplified by civil service exams. While expiration of the agreement did not abolish the responsibility for developing career ladders, the Governor said, he was willing and anxios to extend the letter of agreement for another year. "If CSEA is willing to contine, I will order state representatives to approach in an affirmative manner discssion of objective proposals from yor representatives," the Governor said. The Governor arrived at the Concord Hotel at approximately 9 ajn. for a breakfast meetinig with state officers of CSEA and other key Association officials.

9 Insrance Committee Report The following report was delivered by committee chairman Loie G.^nderhaft. Other committee members are Joseph Aiello, Carl Behr, Patricia Crandall, Hgh Crapser and Ed Vail. "As yo know, we, yor Insrance Committee, are reporting to yo for the first time since or Committee was named shortly after or last election of ^atewlde officers and has only been fnctioning since Dec In the corse of that period of time I as yor chairman have had an opportnity to speak with not onily representatives of or agency, Ter Bsh and Powell, bt participated in an open and free discssion in Hartford, Conn., relative to or Grop Life Insrance Plan. Th-j following reports on varlom insrance coverages for members of CSEA shold be regarded by yo as only interim type In natre in tihe respect tlhat tihe anniversary dates of plans provided by s for or members for tihe most part do not come de for some time and as always will be presented to yo in detail at or "annal meeting in September. GROUP LIFE "Claims recorded on Traveler's records throgih Peto. 7, 1974, Indicate a more favorable loss ratio now than at this same time last year when losses exceeded 100 percent of premim. Sch flctations in loss ratios are common, bt some credit mst be given to the corrective action of removing the 10 percent additional insrance as of Nov. 1, "Premim waiver claims are contining at the high level of last year. At this time It is not necessarily clear that tlhis trend is cased by tihe liberal retirement benefits at age 55, as tihere are other factors involved as well. Travelers is in the process of stdiylng the premim waiver experience over a period of years, and will soon be in a position to report the reslts of this stdy. However, it can be expected that examination of the incrred bt nreported life claim pattern will indicate the need for reserve adjstments as of Jly, 1974, and demonstration of the need for sch action will be given to the Insrance Committee by The Travelers when claim figres are available for the complete policy period. "AssiMndng that Incrred claims of approximately 90.0 percent so far this year contine for the balance of the policy period, and a retention of 6.0 percent there wold remain a margin of 4.0 percent of the year's premim whldii wold be applied to the $5&6,248 detolt as of Jly 11, 1973; there will still be an acomxilative debit in excess of $200,000 remaining as of the Jly 10, 1974, anniversary. "Travelers enrollment activities in 1973 added more volme than in any other year dring the past six years. Approximately $27 mlulon was added as a reslt of the mail campaign and approximately $24 million by the onsite solicitors. Some 7,000 IndlvidaJs were enrolled, and of these approximately 3,977 were new CSEA members. "Toward tihe end of 1973, changes were made In an effort to Insre a continos flow of new entrants Into the Groip Life Plan. The Travelers will be contining its on'-slte solicitation and mall campaign and Ter Bsh & Powell will become sbstantially more active In seeking to write Grop Life. "The spring Travelers solicitation will start abot April 15 covering selected Mental Hygiene instittions. The statewide mall camipaign Is again to be schedled later In the year." SUPPLEMENTAL LIFE "As of Dec. 31, 1973, participation In this program has Increased to almost 14,000 policies. More than $200 million of life insrance is In force on members of the association and their dependents. Almost $1,750,000 has already been paid in death benefits. "Hie administrative problems which have considerably slowed the growth of the program are gradajly being resolved. At this time, however, an exact determination of who is Insred has not been made. Ths, we are nable to give a precise financial report or to'pay a dividend. It is expected that admin-., Istratlon will be sqared away by mld- 1974, and that, nless there are nexpected developments, a dividend can be paid later this year or early in MASTERPLAN HOMEOWNERS AUTO "At the completion of the second year of the CSEA Masterplan program, there are over 11,500 policies in force. This total comprises 7,468 atomobile and 4,065 homeowners policies. "When we made the mailing to insred members to explain the New York No Falt Law, we had not had or rates approved by the Insrance Dept. for the spplemental coverages which are available nder the plan. While It wold have been desirable, we were reqired by the provisions of the No Falt Law to distribte the information abot the law and were, therefore, nable to hold p the mailing awaiting the approval of or rates. In order that yor members may know how mxich these spplemental coverages cost, we will place an advertisement in The Leader which will show these options. Pinal details on this ad are being worked ot and it will appear In The Leader very soon. "There will be several distribtions this year both on tihe state and local levels. A mailing will go ot to state employees March 1. The format of this mailing is entirely new and featres endorsement letters from several Insreds who have been pleased with the program. "Ter Bsh and Powell, Inc. will be following p on the responses which are received from the mailings throgh their Schenectady office. It Is felt that a personal follow-throgh will enhance the sales nder the CSEA Masterplan. ACCIDENT AND HEALTH INSURANCE "I, as yor chairman, had been informed, b(y yor prevlovis Insrance Committee chairman that at the Insrance Committee meeting which was held In Sept., 1973, Umt representatives of the Travelers Insrance Company had Indicated that for several years now the loss ratio position of or Accident and Health Plan has been deteriorating and that It was Important that members of the Insrance Company be made aware not only of this fact, bt that shold the trend contine the committee wold have to take nder consideration certain actions that wold hopeflly pt or plan, once again, back on a sond basis. At this committee's meeting in Feb. 1974, we were frther advised that we were still incrring problems with or ' loss ratio and that a point had been reached Mvhere.certain decisions regarding fndamental (dianges In temporary ' benefits wold have to be considered by this Committee. At this meeting actaries from the Travelers throgh the se of flip dtiarts, flly Informed yor Committee of the direction in which the Plan was going and offered several proposals which If adopted wold once again place this Plan on a sond financlaj basis. "At present, a member of CEtEA who is enrolled in the Accident and Health Plan not only receives fine basic benefits, bt has those benefits spplemented by six additional bons benefits as follows if yo are still lider age 60 and have been made available at no cost to the enrollee: 1. For total disability (de to sickness) lasting more than seven days, benefits are payable for that part of the first seven days yo are conifined in a hospital provided yor confinement lasts 4«hors or more; and... After yor Insrance has been In force for one year or longer The monthly benefit amont Increases by 20 percent for Insreds paying Plan 1 premims or 26 percent for Insreds paying Plan 2 premims; 3. The period of sickness monthly Indemnity benefits (except for pregnancy) increases from 12 months to 24 months; 4. The principal sm of $1,000 in'- creases to a maximm of $12,500. These extra benefitis are also payable and at no extra cost to yo Immediately and regardless of age The period of accident monthly benefit payments increases from li2 months to 24 months for onthe-job accidents; 6. Garanteed mlntmimi amonts are payable for certain fractres, dislocations or annptations. "As a reslt of this Plan's poor loss ratio, yor Committee is recommending to yor CSEA Board of Directors the following cflinges relating solely to those bons benefits whdch are renewable each year, to become effective on Jly 1, 1974: 1. If total disability for which Indemnity is payable nder Part I, or Part IH of the PoUcy com- Social Service Committee Report The following report was moved for acceptance by committee member Geraldine McGraw. Other committee members are chairman Richard Tarmey^ and members Pal laniri, E. Ben Porter, Steve Ragan, David Reeves, Patricia Spied and Grace Vallee. This report will spplement the report given at the annal meeting in Oct., Since the last annal meeting, there have been two meetings held by the Social Service Committee on Jan. 3il, 1974, and F^. 1, The Connittee is in the process of restrctring and expanding lines of commnications with all conties covered nder CSEA contracts. Bach region has at least one Social Services Committee meonber, and the Connltitee Is in the process of encoraging each conty chapter to appoint at least one or more representatives from Social Services, If needed. The Committee is explodng the feasibility of hokung one meeting in ea(^ of the five regions and invite those conty representatives from that region for prposes of inpt and dl^mlnatlng information the Committee has. The response, Indicating the conty representative, ths far has been abot 40 percent sccessfl, and a follow-p is necessary to receive the remaining names of social services conty representatives. By resoltion of the Committee, we are preparing orselves to Insre against redction of employees by legislation, if necessary, in the event that there is another attempt of staite takeover, The staff coordinator is keeping a plse on what bills are being Introdced in the Legislatre affecting Social Services and wul react via the lam firm to snh buls. A letaw has been written to Washington, D.C., regarding the most recent proposed changes in Social Services so that this Committee can properly digest and reaot to same. As Indicated, the Committee has now open lines of commnications with the local conty social service employees, the State of New York and the federal government. Since the passage of the new Child Protective Oare blu, whktx reqires a LOUIE G. SUNDERHAFT mences after a period of continos Insrance nder the Policy of twelve months or more bt prior to the insred's sixtieth birthday, the rate of monthly Indemnity payable for sch loss sha^ be increased 121/2 percent. 2.

"Dring the corse of discssion at or last Committee meeting. yo!r Insrance Committee frther asked the Travelers for a garantee from them thait these modified additional benefits and their continance be garanteed for a period of a minimm of two years at no change In premim rate level. We are pleased to adivise yo that that garantee has been given to s by representatives of the Travelers." 24 hor coverage of child ajbwe. the Committee was sccessfl In Intervening in reopening and renegotiating trams and conditions and wages for those employees in the Child Protective nit in Cortland Conty. In a conter where there were no provisions for stand-by, cau-ot pay or even compensatory time, the CSEA was abie to renegotiate a $50 per week allowance for stand-by horly rate of pay for call-ots cmd compensatory time. The Committee views this as a major breakthrogh In Social Service affairs. The Committee has also kept interested conties informed, which have soght and received the benefits of or experience. To smmarize, the Committee has remained a sorce of valable experience to those seeking ansiwers to qestions and problems in the k)cal conty level.

This was annonced by Melba Binn, of Rochester, who chaired a special meeting of CSEA retirees Mardh 27 dring the statewide DelegaJtes Meeting at the Hotel Concord at KiamesJia Lake. Althogih there are several bills in the Legislatre to give retirees spplemental cost of living benefits, she reported that tihe CSEA legal staff had decided to Rochester Meet To Talk On Retirement, Inflation ROCHESTER Featred speaker at the April 15 meeting of the Rochester chapter of the Civil Service Employees Assn. will be Donald Rosenbam, of the Retirement Board, according to chapter president Samel Grossfield.

Ms. PMnn said tlhat at a recent meeting of the statewide Retirees Committee In Albany, Jack Rice, of the OSEA legal department, said that Assembly Bill A and Senate Bill S-9508 shold be pslhed. Other bills mlgiht be more wide ranging, or offer more benefits, bt wold not have as great a cihance for passage this year. Provisions Cited Bill Ah introdced by Aissemiblyman Alvin M. Schin, and Bill S-9508, introdced by Senator Ricihard E. Scihermerhorn, are identical, and seek to amend the Retirement and Social Secrity Law relating to spplemental pensions, and inclding (1) retirees who are retired prior to April 1, 1970; (2) that the cost of living provision be made permanent; and (3) that the cost of living be considered on an escalated basis by considering the federal cost of living index of the year prior to the year of retirement. Ms. Binn also told the Concord gatihering that she had been able to get a word in witlh Crovernor Wilson jst before the meeting. Governor Wilson had addressed the fll body of delegates late that morning, and had toched on some plans to help OSEA legislation.

Governor, yo didn't speak abot tihe retirees and he said, 'No I didn't, bt I'm well aware of their problem,' and he added that, 'The poeple who retired before April 1, 1970, need some help.'" Ask Chapt» Help Larry Kerwin, chairman of the Statewide Retirees Committee, has drafted a letter to chapter presidents and one to retirees rging a letter campaign to back the OSEA-endorsed legislation. In the letter to presidents, he said In part: "I am asking yo, In yor capacity as chapter president, to rge all of yor members to actively spport tihis legislation by writing to yor local legislators asking for their affirmative srpport of these bills. "As yo know, this legislation has been desperately needed. Yo and yor members will be retirees in ithe not too distant ftre. We ask for yor spport now so that we can speak with one nited powerfl voice." Each of the nearly 16,000 retirees will receive the following letter: To Retirees "OSEA has proposed a bill in the New York State Legislatre that wold allow for the payment of a spplemental retirement allowance. "It wold be payable to anyone Who is age 62 and who retired prior to April The increase wold be based on the Federal cost of living index of the year prior to retirement. "This bill has the backing of all of the Retiree chapters of OSEA. We feel it is imperative that this legislation Is passed dring the crrent session of the ITHACA MEETING Legiislatre. Therefore, as chairman of the OSEA Retirees Committee, I am asking yo to write to the sponsors of Uiis legislation as well as yor own local legislators and strongly rge them to spport these buls. "Enclosed yo will find the bill nmbers for the Assembly and Senate as well as the names and addresses of the appropriate sponsors. Ms. Binn seconded the plea, and told the grop: "We can't do the whole thing as chapter presidents.
