In addition to the standard increase, it is proposed that the maximum for the Clerk- Stenographer I, Clerk-Stenographer 11/ Secretary-Departmental I and Secretary-Executive classifications be raised an additional $10 per month. This extra increase in the maxi mum of the classification would not be paid at this time, but it would improve our com petitive position in hiring employees for these positions by making it possible for the employee to earn a higher salary eventually* e.
