Executive Order 6062—Authorizing the Appointment of Ruby Mae Webb

Ruby Mae Webb may be appointed to a position as rural letter carrier in the classified service without compliance with the civil-service rules.

The Postmaster General, who concurs in the issuance of this order, states that Mrs. Webb is the widow of John G. Webb, who served as a rural letter carrier at Saginaw, Tex., from April 9, 1920, to January 15, 1933, when he was drowned after rescuing from drowning two other persons; that in addition to his wife he is survived by two daughters and a son, all minors and all dependent upon their mother for support; that Mrs. Webb is qualified for the position of rural letter carrier and that in fact, since the death of her husband, she has been satisfactorily serving the route as temporary carrier.
