Executive Order 8917—Exemption of James E. Amos From Compulsory Retirement for Age

Whereas, in my judgment, the public interest requires that James E. Amos, Special Agent, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Justice, who was exempted from compulsory retirement for age for a period of one year by Executive Order No. 8504 of August 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 James E. Amos from compulsory retirement for age for a period of one year ending January 31, 1943.
