A s w e said in our comments to the press, on the Governor's program, w e do not think that the $20 million is

T h e Association and its members have still 80 days to
w o r k to impress both the Governor and the Legislature

W A S H I N G T O N , Jan. 5 — T h e
Elsenhower
administration
is
drafting a bill f o r Introduction in
Congress without delay, covering
health insurance for Federal employees.
T h e former plan of having a select numbffr of approved companies listed, from which employees
might buy the Insurance,
for
the U.S. pays half, or the G o v ernment itself being an alternate
co-Insurer, has been abandoned.
Instead, the field will be wide
open for companies, which merely
have to qualify on the score of
financial responsibility and integrity. Practically
all
companies
therefore could qualify. Employees
would select any one of a large
number of companies.
Health Insurance is one of the
m a j o r additions to the fringe
benefits that have been a feature
of the Administration.

State's Own Siirvpy Shows Salaries Lag
F O R F I V E C O N S E C U T I V E Y E A R S , the State has made a h i r l n i

a consistent basis, it provides the State and others with useful data
to show the trend of Its hiring rates as well as providing a yearly
evaluation of how the State stacks up against private Industry In ita

tions measured. I n 1954 the same figure was eighteen percent; In
1953 it was 23 percent; in 1952 the State lagged 18 percent: in 1951
it was behind 15 percent. W h a t this means, then, is that not only la
the State seriously below the " g o i n g r a t e " but also that it is losing
ground relatively speaking and becoming f a r t h e r behind. T h i s can b « seen when it is' observed that the difference in hiring rates in 1951 \
was 15 percent and today Is 22 percent. T h e State is 7 percent further
behind today than in 1951.
F r o m '51 to '55 the hiring rate in Industry Increased 17.8 percent
while the State increased 10.9 percent. This is another way of saying
the same thing as we did above. T h e degree of deficiency is 7 percent
greater now than in 1951.
But the most significant single figure is the relationship of t h «
State's hiring rate today to the hiring rate In industry today. This,
rather than the rate of change, is more representative of the S t a t *
to hire. T h e State is behind 32 percent.

Harriman Wants Raises
For All State Employees
(Continued from Page 1)
The Governor's program was
exclusively forecast in The L E A D ER several weeks ago, and f o l lows the broad pattern of the legislative program adopted by the
Civil Service Employees Association at its fall meeting.
In his message, the Oovernor
will make these points:
That the lower Income group
of State employees will receive a
larger share of the proposed salary Increases.
That the State pay schedules,
especially those affecting workers
In the lower pay brackets, compare unfavorably with the salaries of Federal workers, and of
State workers in New Jersey, Connecticut, Michigan and California,
as well as those in the N Y C service.
That about half of the State's
basic civil service staff receives
salaries of $3,373 or less a year
and about one-quarter of those in
State service earn less $2,900 anr
