Executive Order 5442—Appointment of Mrs. James R. Bennett

September 11, 1930

Mrs. James R. Bennett, wife of James R. Bennett, former carrier in the post office at Detroit, Mich., may be appointed to a clerical position in the Detroit post office without regard to the civil service rules.

This order is issued on the recommendation of the Postmaster General, who advises that Mr. James R. Bennett was separated from the service on account of permanent disability on November 30, 1929, but two months and six days before he would have become eligible for a disability annuity under the retirement law then in force.
