Herbert Hoover: “Mrs. Josephine Jackley may be appointed a clerk in the Treasury Department without compliance with the civil service…”

Executive Order No. 4610, approved March 10, 1927, as amended by Executive Order No. 4833, March 19, 1928, and by Executive Order No. 5001, November 23, 1928, is revoked effective July 1, 1932.

My dear Mrs. Bird: I am deeply grieved to learn of the death of your brother, the universally beloved Father Francis P. Duffy.

I do so with the deepest regret because of the distinguished service you have rendered and the fine place you have been able to make for yourself in the Diplomatic Service.

There is another phase of the bill as passed which is disheartening.
