In notifying AKxander A. Falk.
president of the State Civil Service Commission of his authorization of the half-holidays. G o v e r nor Harriman pointed out that
he had taken this action because
these m a j o r holidays occur this
year in the middle of a work week,
which would make it most d i f f i cult for many employees whose
homes are located distant f r o m
(their work areas to be able to
share the hoUness and joy of this
season with their families, relatives and friends.
T h e Governor commented: " I
sincerely hope that the additional

men and women who have dedicated themselves to the service
of the State to enjoy a very Merry
Christmas and a most Happy New
Year."
In a letter to the Governor,
John P. Powers, president of the
Civil Service Employees Asociation, expressed the gratification of
the Association for the holiday

Even More Troopers Needed
It Is good news to read in the New York Herald Tribune of December 1 that the State Police are expected to add 386 men to the
force during the coming year. We definitely think the addition should
be much greater so the problem of long hours of duty which the
trooper must serve can be alleviated.
It is fantastic in 1957 America that a body of workers should
have to work over 100 hours per week. The news story spells out that
fact when it says "Troopers live in barracks except for 42 hours a
week and another four days off monthly . . . " This work week is almost
without precedent in American history. In the middle '90s, the common 12-hour work day only added up to 72 hours per week, and th«
woik week since then has been decreasing steadily. Even the 48-hour
work week of the hospital attendant two years back seems like a
paradise In comparison.
The continuec: long work week for the troopers is difficult to
understand in the face of the legislative mandate, signed by the
Governor in 1956, that a 40-hour week be the maximum for all
policemen in all of the cities of the State.
The State Correction Commission, in releasing the reports, listed
these staff vacancies for each
prison: At Auburn, nine correction
officer vacancies, three registered
nurse positions, education supervisor, psychologist and several
clerk and stenographer Items.
At Clinton, the inspectors listed
one correction .jfflcer vacancy,
three head nurses, one X-ray technician and one stenographer. Personnel changes for the past year
were itemized as 89 appointment's,
three transfers, five retired and 21
resigned and four died.
CSEA Sought
Improvements
Assn. Seeks Automatic
Promotion After 5 Years
For Maintenance Men
In an effort to improve promotions for maintenance tradesmen
in State service, John F. Powers,
president of the Civil Service Employees Association, has forwarded
a resolution adopted by the CSEA
on this matter to J. Early Kelly,
State Director of Classification
and Compensation.
In his letter Mr. Powers said:
" A t the last annual meeting of
the Civil Service Employees Association, the delegates unanimously
adopted the following resolution:
"RESOLVED, that the Association take appropriate action to
insure that incumbents of the
Maintenance Tradesman t i t l e ,
after the completion of five years
service, be automatically
promoted, or reclassified to the appropriate Journeyman title."
"There are a significant number of Instances where the State s
classification plan could be more
accurate and precise by application of the principle we seek to
these trade positions. This is because employees holding subJourneyman Items, when sulTiciently experienced so that they
are capable of performing and do
in fact perform journeyman level
work find reclassification impractlble because of a rigid staffing
pattern. We feel sure than an
investigation by your Division
would show significant numbers
of instances where a journeyman
and a sub-journeyman work side
by side performing substantially
the same duties but at a significantly different wage level.
some adjustments were made ai
a result of that, perhaps Its findings were not fully implemented.
In any event it is our feeling that
this study should be updated and
once again this entire problem
re-examined.
"Because of the importance of
this matter your careful consideration and advice to us would be
appreciated."
Mr. Kelly wrote to Mr. Powers
stating " I am sure that you
understand this to be a major and
important deviation from tha
present classification p a t t e r n
which is based chiefly on the duties and responsibilities of individual positions rather than qualifications of the incumbents. This,
of course, will require a confiiderable d e g r e e of Intensive

W A S H I N G T O N , Dec. 9 — The
Post Office Department Is en•ouraglngr postmasters to let their
regular employees work overtime,
|o help cope with the Christmas
holiday rush, rather than hire
outsiders.
The department issued an order
that reads in part as follows:
" I t Is desired that all eligible
regular postal employees have the
©pportunlty
to augment their
earnings by working a practical
number of overtime hours.
"The cost of increased use of
regular overtime should be offset
by a reduction in the employment
of Christmas assistants.
" A t the Christmas season, when
the po.sial service s called upon
for Its greatest effort, we need
to make maximum use of the skill,
experience, and spirit of dedication to the service found In our
regular employees."

Mtlitory Pension Questions Answered by U.S.
DOES Uie employee have to contribute a percentage of his military pay In order to be credited
for his military service?
No. This credit is entirely free.
W H A T IS a .sample retirement
computation?
A yearly basic annuity is generally figured as follows: la) l'/2
percent of the "high-five" average
salary time.s 5 years of service,
plus (b) P i percent of the "highfive" salary times years of service over 5 and under 10, plus (c)
2 ipercent of the "high-five" sal-

CAPTAIN LALLY HONORED
ai y times years of service over 10.
Under this formula, the yearly
annuity of an employee who retires at age 62 after 20 years of
civilian service with a "high-five"
average salary of .<5,000 would be
$1,812.50 (.'6152 a month). If that
person had, for example, 9 years
of military service to be added to
his years of civilian service, his
annuity would be $2,712.50 ($226
a month), or $900 a year more.
For his civilian service, the employee contributed 6 ' i percent of
his salary, the credit for military
service is free.

Our Changing Times
Miracle drugs, intensive tlicrapy, open doors, volimter activiti:!S,
and Increased recreational facilities, have had consideral)le attention during the last few years in hospitals throughout the country.
T h e overall effect of the therapy and rehabilitation program
In the last two years has been great and in part can be measured
by the favorable change in the patient census.
According to F. Barry Ryan, Jr., president of the National Mental
Health Association, the number of mental patients in the United
Stales has decreased for the 2nd year in a row. I n 1956, there was
^ national total decrease of 7.000 patients. Estimates for 1957 place
Jhe decrease figure this year at 5,000 patients.
T h e Mental Hygiene News report that, "Since March 31, 1955,
nn overall decrease of 903 patients has been recorded in the New
York State Hospitals."
" I n ten years prior to 1955, there has been an average annual
Increase of 2,000 patients each year.
Social Security, Health Insurance, better employee relations,
and improved attendance rules also made news during this period.
W e have a long way to go In both our patient and employee
welfare programs, but we are not standing still. T h e tide has changed
and with It we are looking for Improved classification of work titles,
greater promotional opportunities for all classes of workers, a true
40 hour maximum work week and a fair wage for all work performed.
