Executive Order 8710—Exemption of Ales Hrdlicka From Compulsory Retirement for Age

Whereas, in my judgment, the public interest requires that Ales Hrdlicka, Curator of Physical Anthropology in the United States National Museum, Smithsonian Institution, who was exempted from compulsory retirement for age for periods totaling two years by Executive Orders No. 8058 of February 23, 1939, and No. 8368 of March 7, 1940, 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 Ales Hrdlicka from compulsory retirement for age for a period of one year ending March 31, 1942.
