Mrs. Maude Williams may be appointed to a classified position in the Government service without compliance with the civil service rules. It is reported that she has rendered satisfactory service under temporary appointment in the Treasury Department.

This order is recommended by the Secretary of Labor. Mrs. Williams has three children, aged thirteen, twelve, and eight, who are being taught trades in the Mills Industrial School in North Carolina and who are partially dependent on her for support, an award, approved in her favor as the natural guardian of three children, adjusted service credit, by the Veterans' Bureau not being entirely sufficient for their support.

The order is also recommended by the Secretary of the Treasury.
