E xajnple: A Clerk, G 2 ($1,600$2,200) who was on M arch 31,
1947, receiving th e m axim um
sa lary ( e., $1,700, converted as
of A pril 1, 1947, to $2,200) of his

salaiT of $2,200 in th e Clerk
position is $2,280 and, therefore.
on April 1, 1947, such employee
i was given a salary of $2,280 in th e
position of S enior A ccount Clerk.
As a re.suit of th e retroactive re ! allocation of th e position of S enior

A new system of creating high
.school g rad u a tes grew out of w a r­
tim e stoppage of education. M any
young m en an d women quit school
to jo in up a n d cam e back feeling
n ot a t all like sittin g down to
desks a n d books again. T hey h ad
learned a lot in th e course of th e
w ar years.
L ist of Subjects
So. th e high school equivalency
diplbm a was created. Any m a n or
w om an cculd get one merely by
high school gradu­ applying for i t a n d p assing five
tests.
T h e subjects covered are:
1. Spelling and G ram m ar.
2 . A rithm etic.
3. Ability to u n d ersta n d certain
pa.ssages in th e N atu ra l Sciences.
4. Ability to u n d ersta n d p as­
sages in th e Social Sciences.
5. Ability to u n d ersta n d good
literatu re .
Most persons who can pass a
clerk te st are able to pass this
ex am in atio n w itho ut any difficulty.
79 P er C ent Pass
I n NYC alone. 9685 m en an d
women have ta k en these tests
since O ctober 1947, and 7,598, or
nearly 79 per ce n t have passed.
An alm ost equal num ber have
ta k en th e m in u p sta te New York.
T he tests are given a t least
once each m o n th in each of th e
five boroughs in NYC and each
of the o th e r areas w here tests are
scheduled. Almost every S ta te in
th e union offers a sim ilar equiva­
lency diplom a, or credit, altho ugh
some S ta te s lim it th is privilege to
veterans,
I n New York appllctvtlons should
be m ad e at any local high school.
A fee of $4 is charged. C a n did ates
who lail have th e privilege of
t aki ng t he test only once ag ain ,
so it is particu larly im p o rta n t to
p rep a re adequately for th e ex­
am in atio n . Several books h av e
been w ritten for this purpose an d
a n um ber of courses are given th a t
a re helpful.
T he equivalency diplom a is
valuable in gaining admt«»ion to
m a n y civil service exuiuinntions,
including some S ta le promot^ion
exam inations.

of the jobs are filled by provisioiials, employees who did n ot
pass an exam in atio n an d who will
have to be replaced by eligibles

The sta rtin g pay for all groups
Is $1.24 a n hour, or $59.52 a week.
Notices of exam inatio n ai-e bejnu prepared by th e Commission.
A .strong re c ru itm e n t com paign
will bs waged. Civil Service Comniissioner E sth e r Bromley, in
charge of recru itm en t, is having
posters m ade, which, it is ex­
pected, will be displayed all over
town, including locations in th e
sulnvay.
The last exam in atio n was held
jn 1947. I t is expected th a t this
time requirem ents will be about
the .same, except th a t instead of
six m o n th s’ experience being r e ­
quired, th e m inim um will be th re e
years, b u t g rad u a tio n from a
trade .school in th e specialty con­
cerned probably will be accepted
in lieu of experience, or lesser
schooling in lieu of .shorter length
of experience.
T h e th ree groups call for skills
as follows:
G roup A—Electrical, for em ­
ploym ent on signalling an d lig h t­
ing duties, exclusive of power.
G roup B—M echanical, for work
in m a ch in e shops.
G roup C—E lectrical, for work
in power plants.
T h u s G roups A a n d C are
closely sim ilar.
A lthough th e sta rtin g pay is th e
sam e for all, th e ra te a t th e end
of a y ear’s satisfacto ry service
differs. For G roup A it is $1.29,
fo r B, an d C, $1.34, T h e weekly
pay for 48 ho u rs would be $61.92
a n d $64.32.
