Executive Order 7550—Revocation of Paragraph 9, Subdivision III, Schedule A, Civil Service Rules

Whereas by Executive Order of November 18, 1905, the position of one examiner of tobacco in the Customs Service at the port of Chicago was exempted from the competitive classified service; and

Whereas the Treasury Department exercises its prerogative under section 3 of Civil Service Rule n by filling that position as competitive classified positions are filled, thus rendering the exemption unnecessary:

Now, Therefore, by virtue of and pursuant to the authority vested in me by the Civil Service Act (22 Stat. 403), it is ordered that paragraph 9, Subdivision III, Schedule A of the Civil Service Rules, excepting one position of tobacco examiner in the Customs Service at the port of Chicago from the competitive classified service, be, and it is hereby, revoked.
