Executive Order 728

The 126 employees of the Union Agency, of which a list has been furnished the Civil Service Commission by the Secretary of the Interior, and who are carried in the agent's accounts as irregular labor outside the classified service, may be continued without examination under the civil-service rules as a temporary expedient in view of the impossibility of dispensing with or changing the present force. No addition shall, however, be made to the force, except in accordance with the civil-service rules; nor shall the present employees be transferred to positions outside of that agency.
