FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
OCTOBER 22, 1976
Office of the White House Press Secretary
THE WHITE HOUSE
EXECUTIVE ORDER
EXEMPTION OF ASHTON C. BARRETT
FROM MANDATORY RETIREMENT
Ashton C. Barrett, a member of the Federal Maritime
Commission, will become subject to mandatory retirement
because of age and service as of October 31, 1976, under
the provisions of Section 8335 of Title 5 of the
United States Code, unless exempted by Executive order.
In my judgment, the public interest requires that
Ashton C. Barrett be exempted from such mandatory retirement.
NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of the authority vested in
me by subsection (c) of Section 8335 of Title 5 of the
United States Code, I hereby exempt Ashton C. Barrett
from mandatory retirement until October 31, 1977.
GERALD R. FORD
THE WHITE HOUSE,
October 22, 1976
