In the preparation of this budget
an earnest effort has been made to
provide more adequate compensation
for all state officers and employees,
hut II is realized that many inenuaIi-
ties exist which 1t has been impos-
sible to correct with the limited data.
available concerning the various state
empioyments. The adjustment %
salary and wage payments has been
a most difficult question. for there has
not been up to the present time any
logical method or basis for fixing
salary rates or titles of positions.
Positions have been created without
any definition whatever of the work
requirements or any intelligent un-
derstanding of service needs--in fact,
at present compensation bears little
reference. If any to the service rem
dered.
For instance, it is found that SINH
lar titles are applied to positions OF
an entirely different character;
while different titles are given to like
positions. High grade work Is often
poorly and inadeQuately paid, while
service CT a very low grade in a large
number OF cases is paid at very
high rates, This lack OF uniformity
results in much injustice and waste.
IT has Brought about general laxitv
in administration that finds express
sion in multiplied empioyments and
over-manned services, on one hand
and in ineniciency, poor service
wastefulness and n-performance,
on the other.
In view Of the seriousness OF this
situations II Is recommended that au-
ttharitSs be- granted the governor. AZ
