  of section one hundred thirty-one of the civil service law.
4.  If  the  position  of  any  such  employee  is  reallocated,   his
  compensation  in  the  new title shall be adjusted in the same manner as

  salary  grade for a position comparable to one in the classified service
  of the state as set forth in section one hundred  thirty  of  the  civil
  service  law, such incumbent shall be paid the minimum salary of the new
  grade and shall be eligible to receive the  increments  for  such  grade
  based  on  the  number  of  his  years  of service in the position as it
  existed on March thirty-first, nineteen hundred sixty-one.
