Executive Order 7980—Postponement of Effective Date of Certain Provisions of Executive Order No. 6166 of June 10, 1933

Whereas it appears that the interests of economy require that certain transfers, consolidations, and eliminations provided for under section 4 of Executive Order No. 6166 of June 10, 1933, as amended, be further delayed beyond the effective date of that order:

Now, Therefore, pursuant to the provisions of section 22 of the said order, I hereby order that the transfers, consolidations, and eliminations contemplated by section 4 of Executive Order No. 6166 of June 10, 1933, as amended, together with the operation of all other provisions of Executive Order No. 6166 of June 10, 1933, as amended, so far as they relate to the said section 4, be further delayed until December 31, 1938, with respect to the function of disbursement now exercised by United States Marshals under the Department of Justice.
