S a m p l e O W c i a l L i E i l ^ D E R Americana Larfiest Weekly yol. XV — No. 3 for Fublic Tuesday, September 29, 1933 State's N e w Description O f Positions The following continues the publication of the State's new specifications of job titles and duties. DICTATING MACHINE TRANSCRIBER SERIES Dictating Machine Transcriber, Grade Z. Senior Dictating Machine Transcriber, Grade 6, Principal Dictating Machine Transcriber, Grade 10. Head Dictating Machine Transcriber. Grade 15. This series contains positions which transcribe material from machine-recorded dictation into typewritten form, but are not required to take shorthand dictation. The work is similar to t h a t of positimi^ in the Typist Series, 2601 — Dictating machine t r a n scribers may do some copy typing, and Typists may do some t r a n scription from dictating machine records. Despite the similarity between typing and transcribing positions, they are classified in two different title series to facilitate recruitment and assignment. The difference in titles and salaries between the several grades in this series Is based almost entirely upon supervisory duties. Dictating machine transcriber, grade 2 transcribes letters, memoranda, forms, and reports from machine dictation and occasionally f r o m copy. The subject matter of the material ranges through the entire variety of government activities including medical, legal, scientific and other specialized fields. Examinations test for general clerical aptitude And typing skill, and do not te.st for special vocabulary or knowledge of procedvu-e which may be used in any specific agency. Transcription of conferences and telephone conversations falls within the duties of this class. Qualifications: Appointments are made from candidates who have passed examinations for Typist and indicated willingness to be placed on an eligible list for Dictating Machine Transcriber.

This week it publishes the same type of material regarding candidates for departmental representatives, who, like the officers, serve on the CSEA board of directors. Some biographies of representative candidates, not received in time for this week's issue, will be published next week, if received. All biographies are published in alphabetical order of departments and candidates, the same as appears on the official ballot (See Page 8), to the extent that the ma- tively in local church and civic affairs, as much as being the father of eight children will allow.

Glad to see t h a t equalization of pay for prison g u a r d s is one of t h e first re.solutions indorsed by s t a t e wide A.ssociation .This m e a n s t h a t t h e Legislature will get a c h a n c e to right a wrong which h a s h u r t prison g u a r d s for six years. Here are t h e reasons for a list of 104 m e n : A typical new m a n coming to work as a g u a r d Is 28 years of age a n d h a s two children. A f t e r deductions for t a x a n d r e t i r e m e n t , his t a k e h o m e pay is $G9 a week. Wait j u s t - a m i n u t e . Tliis includes s t r a i g h t pay for eight hours' overtime! Deduct f r o m t h i s pay about 20 percent which is overtime, a n d you find t h a t for a 40-hour week, which is t h e recognized work week all over t h e country, t h i s m a n h a s a t a k e h o m e pay of $55,201 R e member, t h i s man m u s t have two years' supervisory experience and at least a high school dij^oma. Most prisons in New York State are situated in Isolated sections and the only form of transportation is by car. Therefore this m a n with $55.20 take-home^pay for 40 hoiu-s must have a car. Being on call 24 hours a day as all guards must be is another must reason for owning a car. The latest available figures of the A A A state that a card driven a minimumi of 7,500 miles a year costs at least $15 a week. Deduct this maiulatory expense and we find that a prison guard on a 40-hour basis has $40.20 a week to feed, clothe, shelter and provide the necessary living expenses for a family of four. It cannot be done; therefore we have a list of 104 men in a statewide exam. We ask for a 40-hour week with the same take-home pay, and a true 25-year pension retirement at half-pay with the State making all back payments. See you at the next meeting of the CSEA in October .
