Administrative History
When the United States entered the First World War in 1917, the New York State Legislature enacted a law stipulating that state employees would not lose any of their employment privileges due to absence in military service, and that they would be paid the difference between their military pay and their state salaries. Later that year the legislature appropriated funds for the salaries of employees in military service.
