In rushing into print with the fii-st information about the Survey Report of the State Salary Standardization Board, The LEADER recorded its quick conclusion that the report is an impressive job. The fact that the survey was made at all is a forward step.

I n fact, cases are already, coming to light in which certain groups of employees actually face a salary cut in the maximums now established. These over-all statements must be made about the report: While tlie staff which prepared it did a notable job in getting it out in so short a time, t h e hurry and rush with which it was prepared have seriously impaired the validity of its contents. O There is a curious comiection between the findings of the re^ port a n d the salaries which are now being paid by the State. One cannot avoid t h e feeling t h a t t h e Salary Standardization Board set out in advance to reach certain conclusions, then found the facts to sustain these conclusions. I t is inconceivable otherwise t h a t t h e "proposals," which allegedly come out of the data gathered by t h e board, should so closely approximate t h e salary "status quo." Moreover, even on the affirmatilve side, administration policy is reflected in the report. Example: On page 56 this statexnent appears: . . emeigency compensation now being paid to New York "State employees is justified a n d should be incorporated in the basic salary levels." T h e question may reasonably be asked: If this were not administration policy this yeai', would such a statement have a p peared in the report?

(Continued from Page 1> a new increase most carefully, and while it is clear t h a t the cost of living has again increased during the past year, it is also the fact t h a t compensation of State employees has risen more in the past decade t h a n the cost of living. Taking the 1935-39 average of cost-of-living indexes and, average pay of 1938, we find t h a t while the cost of living has risen 53 per cent, average salaries have risen 61 per cent in State service. Stressed Personal Facts "In 1942," the Governor pointed out, "the lowest starting salary in State service was $900. Today, the pay is $1,560. Mental hospital attendants who started work in 1942 for $1,252 now start a t $1,690. It is perhaps even more important that the Administration acts on promotions and reclassifications on the basis of personal facts rather than a cold basis of budget savings. "All told, we witness this result: The average of State salaries was $1,520 in 1938, $1,692 in 1942, and $2,448 in 1946. The average salary in 1946 is 45 per cent higher than either 1938 of 1942. Backs Salary Board Report "On top of all this I recommend t h a t we improve our salary plan even further. I support wholeheartedly the Salary Board's proposal for a simplified salary to take place of the obsolete pay scales t h a t now exist for twelve different groups of employees. $11,000,000 for 40-Hour Week "Our pay scales should be for a basic number of hours per week and t h a t number should not exceed 40. All employees who must work regularly in excess of 40 hours should be compensated for their extra hours at straight time. The mental hospital attendant who received $1,252 for 48 hours of work in 1942 would receive $2,028 under this proposal, a total increase of 62 per cent. All other employees who may work irregularly more t h a n 40 hours per week should be compensated in timeoff or overtime pay. This proposal is fair but, nevertheless, costly. I recommend t h a t some $11,000,000 be made available for this purpose. Together with the present cost of our emergency compensation these improvements will cost $38,000,000. I anticipate t h a t $8,000,000 of this amount can be financed from savings in regular appropriations and recommend t h a t $30,000,000 be appropriated for these specific pui'poses." Funds for Institutions Governor Dewey recommends in his message increased appropriations totaling $5,600,000 for the State's mental institutions. These increases are to provide for higher prices in items such as fuel, increased population, and improved medical treatment, with the exception of $1,035,00 which has been allocated specifically "to assure the maintenance of sound nutrition, in case prices do not decline as presently indicated." An additional appropriation is also recommended for the juvenile delinquency program. Other appropriations are recommended Tor institutions in the Departments of Correction, Health and Social Welfare are for increases in personal service, increases for extra hazardous and arduous work, filling of vacancies, and for the additional vacation week granted this year. "I can no longer ask our Commisioners to render their notablt services for existing salaries," Governor Dewey said. "I wish to recommend a revision and moderization of the salaries of the heads of the State's departments and agencies. Most of the salaries are today wholly obsolete and inadequate." Salaries of the State Comptroller, the Attorney-General, and the Education Commissioner were increased by legislation last year. The sixteen other department heads receive $12,000 (a figure set before 1930), according to the message, plus an emergency compensation of $1,000 granted in 1945. It is imderstood t h a t failure of the Governor to indicate the amount of the increases in his budget message arises from discord among State officials as to whether all department heads should be compensated equally regardless of the added responsibilities of some departments. The Governor will probably include in the supplemental budget, to be submitted to the legislature at the end of the session, a proposal for variable scales for commissioners' salaries. Consolidations Grow in City-County Units Ways to streamline government through consolidation of city and county functions are being studied in an increasing number of localities, according to the American Municipal Association. Examples cited of unified local government are Philadelphia and New Orleans, where city-county consolidation has been complete. P a r t consolidation has been effected in Boston and New York, the Association adds. In Baltimore, Denver, San Francisco and St. Louis, part consolidation has been effected, the city assuming functions of the county government within municipal boundaries, thereby abolishing overlapping jurisdictions.

Veterans' Status The question is often asked whether veterans, who are given preference in appointment and, who are entitled to a hearing on charges before removal, are e n titled to charges or a hearing before they can be dropped at t h e termination of their probationary terms. This question has twice been answered in the negative by th3 Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, Second Department, and at this writing, has not been decided by the Court of Aop^als. Accordingly, at present veterans and disabled veterans can a p parently be dropped at the end of their probationary term without charges. l(»0 100 a o c W 125 150 150 100 2(K) 120 •iOO 100 100 ' T ^ r - " " ' ' ^ .{00 200 200 200 •c. ftt^ 120 •;40(J-;{OOO 4500-5500 •^50()-.'n;25 ;t I'.'()-.^870 4000-5000 •J400-;»)00 .•t500-4;t75 'MOO-.'tOOO .'lOOO-ir/SO .'i;!:j5-;tf»75 1000-5000 ;i:i;j5-;»l»75 ;U'.i0-}JK70 .•{r^0-.SK70 .•iJ'30 ;!S70 t!700-H;.'00 ti700-8:i00 M500-4.'i75 '.'OOO-Uli'.'o 4000 5000 200 125 150 13 4 200 120 175 120 150 150 200 I 50 150 150 150 .•)00 :J00 175 125 200 •Previously allocaU!d but omitted from Ninth Report.
