Executive Order No. 2734

[Suspending civil service rules in training camp activities.]

THEE WHITE HOUSE, October 15, 1917.

  Civilian employees of the Commissions on Training Camp Activities may be appointed without regard to the requirements of the Civil Service rules.

  The staffs of employees of the Commissions on Training Camp Activities, heretofore paid from private funds, are to be taken into the service of the War and Navy Departments and paid from Gov- ernment appropriations, and it is desired that the established organ- izations be continued. In the opinion of the Secretary of War and the Secretary of the Navy, it is impracticable to secure qualified em- ployees for this work by competitive examination.

  WOODROW WILSON.
