Pension Tax Exemption T h e proposal to ask exemption of pensions f r o m Federal income taxation will also hold the interest of many a t the a n n u a l meeting. Retired railroad workers, f o r example, are allowed an exemption of income tax up to $1,440, but former State employees, some of whom receive as little as $500 a year, must pay a tax on this small income. T h e full tax rate does not apply to pensions, but the argument is t h a t pensions are deferred compensation and should be certain and be statbilized as to net i n come. The U. S. Treasury rulingf is t h a t 3 per cent of the a m o u n t contributed by the pensioner must be reported as income, vmtil t h e amount (excluded from gross i n come) that he received exceeds the amount he contributed. T h e n subsequent retirement allowance must be reported in its entirety for income tax. Pension Liberalization Pension liberalization will be proposed and a plan discussed for obtaining it from the 1947 Legislature.

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1946 Age 55 Pension Plan Reopening Nears End N LESS than two weeks the opportunity of NYC employees to take advantage of the reopening of the age I 55. 30-year, half-pay pension plan will expire. Two weeks ago there were 35,000 employees still under later-age retirement plans. This number has been reduced, through the cooperative efforts of the NYC Employees' Retirement System and The LEADER, but the change to the more liberal plan should be almost unanimous. The employee can either retire earlier than otherwise or, assuming retirement at any allowable age under a later-age plan, the retirement allowance becomes greater by acceptance of the present opportunity. Though the rate is higher, the total amount to be contributed may be less under the age-55 plan, because made over a shorter period. Each employee should ascertain from the Retirement System, 52 Chambers Street, just how extensively he or she would be benefited. Employees frequently work for liberalization of pension systems. Here is an example of liberalization which, if not seized, will not only redound to the disadvantage of the individual employees as to their own retirement benefits, but will be a blow to other efforts at other liberalization. If you're offered what you fight for and then don't accept it, a cause is injured. The City will do at least as much more for each acceptor of the age-55 plan as he does for himself. The em-^>loyee must act by Monday, September 30. It is folly not to do so. Armed Forces Cling To Non-Military Jobs HE use of military personnel in civilian jobs still continues on a large scale in Federal employ, and in some T instances is actually expanding. Protests by civilian employee groups are growing, and rightfully so. The merit system can be undermined in many ways and filling of civilian jobs with military personnel is one of the most threatening. Also, it is another example of perpetuating practices necessary in wai- that are unnecessary and invidious in peace. The remedy has been found difficult to impose, because the armed forces emphasize their admitted heavy responsibilities, and connect these with arguments favoring "experienced personnel." You would imagine that the Federal civilian service does not rate and reward experience and that the armed forces fear the "blundering methods of civilian recruitment." Yet jobs that were competently filled by civilians before the war, became war casualties and the armed forces supplied the replacement in true military fashion. Now these forces are determined not to let go what they have won. Still, these jobs are hardly justifiable spoils of war.

Comment, Please Forgotten Women Editor, T h e L E A D E R : Recently in your columns a letter s t a t e d t h a t a n organized group of NYC employees suggests t h a t workers in a g r a d e t e n years should a u t o m a t i c a l l y o b t a i n p r o motion to t h e n e x t h i g h e r grade. S t a t e employees will second t h a t motion. Why, instead of being in a g r a d e 10 years, t h e r e a r e some f e m a l e S t a t e employees with 20 to 30 years' service who h a v e been a t t h e t o p of t h e (assistant) Clerk g r a d e for 10 to 15 years! T h i s m e a n s t h a t they never h a d t h e i r basic salaries increased d u r ing t h a t period. T h a n k s t o Gevernor Dewey, t h e y h a v e received t h e emergency bonus since 1943.

Even w h e n t h e w o m e n passed promotion examinations they were n o t p r o m o t e d because t h e r e were no m o r e vacancies. B u t t h e S t a t e could c r e a t e a new senior clerical position or two or three. Let Governor Dewey ask e a c h d e p a r t m e n t h e a d to send h i m a t once a list of t h e i r employees who h a v e been a t t h e top of t h e Clerk g i a d e 10 or m o r e years. T h e n give these people a n o p p o r t u n i t y to get in t h e n e x t h i g h e r grade, which is Senior ($1,600 to $2,100). I t would n o t cost t h e S t a t e so m u c h , as t h e f u r n i s h i n g of definite n a m e s of persons by d e p a r t m e n t s will show how little money it would t a k e to lift t h e morale of this little group of spinsters, wid- ows a n d wives of veterans of World W a r I a n d m o t h e r s oi vete r a n s of World W a r II.
