Executive Order 7912—Further Exemption of John H. Thomas From Compulsory Retirement for Age

Whereas, in my judgment, the public interest requires that John H. Thomas, Assistant Solicitor and member of the Board of Appeals, Department of the Interior, who was exempted from compulsory retirement for age for a period one year ending September 30, 1938, by Executive Order No. 7637 of June 19, 1937, be further exempted from such compulsory retirement for a period of one year:

Now, Therefore, by virtue of and pursuant to the authority vested in me by section 204 of the act of June 30, 1932, 47 Stat. 382, 404 (U.S.C., title 5, sec. 715a), I hereby further exempt the said John H. Thomas from compulsory retirement for age for a period of one year ending September 30, 1939.
