Retirement System can retire at
half salary after a specified number of years of service. Upon completing such service, and if they
continue to work, they are no
longer required to make retirement contributions. Since the basic
aim of the plan is to reduce employees' retirement contributions,
so as to increase take-home pay,
there can be no reduction for employees who do not contribute
toward retirement. In addition,
there are still some active employees who are covered under two
closed noncontributory retirement
programs—the Correction Department Retirement System, and certain provisions of the Military
Law—and who can retire either
on half-pay'or three-quarters pay.
Since these employees do not contribute toward retirement they
also can not take advantage of
the plan.

Cash awards totaling $600 were
presented recently to two New
Y o r k area employees. Mrs. Dorothy U m n e r , a civilian secretary
with the First U.S. Army, received
$100 and a Department of Army
superior accomplishment award.
Presentation was made by Colonel
Thomas B. Hembree, First Army
Judge Advocate, at a ceremony on
Governor's Island.
Anothe Oovenment
employee,
Panic A. Russo, an admlnlstative
asslsUnt in the Immigration and
Naturalization Service, received a
1500 superior performance award.
M r . Russo was the employee most
directly responsible for the recent
relocation of his Department's
offices.
Increase Is that the President
would probably find it'difficult to
veto an increase of that size,
even though he has said he wants
to delay pay raises for a while,
and the Republican leaders in
Congress would probably advise
him against vetoing It.
Also, It seems more than likely
that Congress would override a
Presidential veto of an Increase
of this size, though if it were
larger there would be less chance
of Congress doing that.

Editor, The Leader:
because we bargain in what the
city laughingly calls "good f a i t h "
instead of asking for the moon
and then saying we'll strike if we
don't get it and tie up the whole
city.
And then what little they do
give us they put off for six months
or a year just to save a little
money. That seems to be the
favorite trick just putting things
off a little longer to save a little
money at the expense of the employee.
Well, people certainly get bitter,
don't they when someone deprives
them of the just deserts of their
labor. I hope more employees

The Shame of New York City!
Mayor Wagner's recent announcement that New York
City patrolmen would receive an annual pay increase
of $400.00, completely evades the policeman's financial
plight and totally ignores the needs of the people!
Deliberate and sustained efforts by policemen, directed toward obtaining a substantially higher pay
scale, are addressed to perhaps the most dangerous
vulnerability now confronting the American people
everywhere.
This vulnerability rests in the unwillingness of
the American people to allocate a large enough portion
of their evergrowing economic wealth and power
towards public programs and public services.
The great City of New York, because it is the
metropolis of America, has become an outstanding example of this dangerous reluctance. There is an all too
close analogy between the United States adhering to the
fallacy that it "cannot afford" the level of national defense essential to prevent it from becoming a second
rate power, and the City of New York adhering to the
enual fallacy that it "cannot afford" to pay the price of
ai- efficient and equitably treated police force!

The m a x i m u t n pay of a first grade patrolman

Pay adjustments should at the very least keep up with
price inflation and rising living costs, so that living
standards are not forced downward. This principle has
been applied to almost all Americans during the past
two decades. But the patrolman in New York City has
seen his dollar pay lag tremendously behind rising living costs. Today, despite recent increases, his real pay is
lower than in 1939!
This year, under contemplated wage scales, the
New York City patrolman will receive a salai^ below
the "adequate" health and decency budget required for
a family of four!* In short, he canyiot afford proper
housing facilities, proper food or sufficient clothing for
his family!
BUT, the City of New York can, without question,
affoi-d to increase police salaries within the present
budget Among the ten largest cities in the United
States, New York ranks last in the percentage of its
total general expenditures allocated to the police force!
Four of the ten largest cities allocate more than twice
as high a percentage of their total general expenditures
to police activities as does New York I
We have asked Mayor Wagner and the Board of
Estimate for an annual salary increase of $1,000 retroactive to January 1, 1960. Even with this immediate
increase, New York City's police pay would not rank
first among the largest cities j n the United States. Even
with this increase, most patrolmen in New York City
would still be far below the accepted "adequacy" requirements of an American family budget. Even with
this increase, it would take a first grade patrolman
another 15 years merely to be reimbursed for what he
has lost to the rising cost of living during the past two
decades. Even with this increase, the patrolmen of N e w
York City will join only veiy inadequately in the general
rate of income progress which most Americans have !
enjoyed since just before World War II.

I WANT TO USE PART OF THE REDUC-
annuity.
W h a t will be the effect of the
plan on my paycheck?
A f t e r the plan takes effect, your
take-home pay will Increase by
5 per cent of gross salary, (if you
are contributing at the rate of
5 per cent or m o r e ) , and probably
between 7 and 8 per cent of net
salary (after deductions for taxes,
insurance, social security, etc.).
What period of employment does
the plan cover?
T h e plan covers the fiscal year
1960-61.
I am now contributing at a rate
of 9 per cent of salary to the retirement system. W h a t will my
new rate be?
4 per cent.
M y normal rate of contribution
is 4.4 per cent. W h a t will niy new
rate be?
Zero per cent. A t retirement
you will receive, however, an additional pension (to be known as
the " p e n s 1 o n-provlding-for-increased-take-home-pay")
which
will be based on the State contributions equal to 5 per cent of
compensation. T h a t is. your takehome pay now will be raised by
4.4 per cent of salary. Your pension at retirement will be increased by the full 5 per cent,
which is more than the annuity
you would have received based on
contributions at the 4.4 per cent
rate.
M y normal rate of contribution
is 6.6 per cent, but I am actually
paying 3.6 per cent into the retirement system and 3 per cent
into social security. W h a t will my
new rate be?
A f t e r the plan takes effect, you
will not contribute toward retirement, but you will pay 3 per cent
to social security. While your takehome pay will Increase by only 3.6
per cent of your salary, at retirement the State will provide an
additional pension based on contributions at the rate of 5 per
cent to replace an annuity based
on your contributions of 3.6 per
cent. I n other words, under the
plan at retirement your total
allowance will increase.
Will I receive a reduced benePit
when I retire?
I
Does the proposed vesting program make provision f o r inciudin?
the additional pension paid f o r
by the State?
Yes.
Does that mean that if I Jcft
next year before reaching retirement age and I was eligible t o
vest I would receive credit for the
State's additional contributions at
retiremen?
Yes.
You say that I will receive an
additional pension at retirement.
What is the formula f o r determining the size of this pension?
This additional pension will be
the actuarial equivalent of 5 per
cent of the employee's compensation f o r the period that the plan
was in effect, plus regular interest
(4 per cent f o r those who joined
the retirement system before July
1, 1943 and 3 per cent f o r those
who joined t h e r e a f t e r ) .
W h a t effect will the new plari
have on my right to borrow f r o m
the retirement system?
None, except to the extent that
you will be contributing less t o
the annuity savings fund and
therefore have less to borrow.
Does that mean that the State
does not add 5 per cent of my
salary to my annuity
savings
account?
T h a t is correct. T h e State's contribution goes into the pension
accumulation fund. A t retirement
or death, the State withdraws
sufficient funds f r o m the pension
accumulation fund to compensate
for the reduced benefit that you
will receive from the annuity fund
because of your reduced contribution.
T h e following questions pertain
to employees of local units of government who belong to the State
Employees' Retirement System:
Can I also benefit f r o m tiie
plan?
1
Yes, but only if your employer
chooses to take advantage of the
optional provision of the law. A n y
unit of local government which
belongs to the retirement system
can provide the same benefits f o r
its employees as does the State,
but the decision rests with the
localitry.
If my employer ciiooses to pro
vide us with coverage under the
plan, will I rcceive the full benefits
from April 19G0?
No. N o retroactive coverage is
p r o v i d e d f o r under the plan.
Tlierefore, the effective date f o r
each unit of government depends
upon tiae date that it takes tiia
necessary steps to cover its employees.
J
No. All employees will receive
the same benefits after the "plan
goes Into effect as tiiey would
have received if it did not go into
effect. However, all employee contributions toward retirement will
be reduced by 5 per cent of salary.
Any employee who retires through
superannuation, disability, or discontinued service will receive the
same retirement allowance that he
would have received it the plan
were not adopted. Any decrease in
