Mrs. Juliette V. Harring may be appointed to an appropriate position in the Department of Commerce without regard to the civil service rules. Mrs. Harring is the widow of Harry K. Harring who, for more than twenty-three years prior to his death on December 19, 1928, was employed as Scientific Instrument Maker in the Bureau of Standards. This order is issued upon the recommendation of the Secretary of Commerce who states that Mr. Barring's skill and ingenuity in the design, development, and construction of instruments and apparatus of high precision were invaluable to the scientific technical work of the Bureau of Standards, and that his whole-hearted cooperation in behalf of the Bureau's advancement was an inspiration for further efforts in the fields of true research. HERBERT HOOVER The White House, May 14, 1929.
