INTRODUCTION
THE Presidential Executive Order in the last fifty years has become a
governmental instrument of broad and increasing importance, a fact made
particularly obvious since 1933. In use from the earliest days of the
Republic, the Executive Order was at first employed mainly for the dis-
position of the public domain, for the withdrawal of lands for Indian,
military, naval, and lighthouse reservations or other similar public pur-
poses. Later it was much used for the creation, alteration, or disposition
of forest, oil, gas and coal reserves, and for the withdrawal of public lands
from sale or entry for purposes of accurate classification. It was also used
to establish, transfer, and abolish land offices and land districts, supple-
menting acts of Congress. It became an essential instrument in the evolu-
tion of the civil service, blanketing into the classified service additional
positions as authorized by law, promulgating rules for the service, and
making plentiful individual exceptions and exemptions from those rules,
both with and without the approval of the Civil Service Commission. It
was used to effect various regulations applying to governmental employees
outside as well as inside the growing classified service. It established days
of mourning for the death of famous citizens. It extended Indian trust
period allotments. It was employed to give public notice of changes of
general interest in the regulations governing the consular and diplomatic
services. Actual allocations of government funds were made, beginning
with the blanket allotments for expenditures in the possessions newly
acquired from Spain at the beginning of the century. Customs districts
and offices were set up or altered by Executive Order. Regulations for the
early government of the Canal Zone were established. Army regulations
on punishments, both in peace and war, and on allowances for subsistence
and housing, were set forth by the President through this vehicle.
During World War I, the use of the Executive Order was widened as
executive authority and power increased and its scope was again greatly
broadened. Important agencies such as the Food Administration, the
Grain Corporation, the War Trade Board, and the Committee on Public
Information were set up by Executive Order. Presidential powers, vastly
increased in wartime, were specifically delegated to subordinate officers by
Presidential Order. Defense appropriations were allocated. Defensive
sea areas were established. Censorship of the foreign language press was
delegated to the Postmaster-General. Rules were established governing
the behavior of enemy aliens. The interned ships of enemy powers were
assigned for use. Sale of property in the hands of the Alien Property
Custodian was regulated. Rules for wartime radio broadcasting were estab-
lished. Bullion exports were regulated, and the non-combatant duties of
conscientious objectors to military service were detailed.
During the New Deal, the Executive Order was to see even wider and
more vital usage, both in the administration of the recovery and reform
programs and in the evolution of the defense and war projects. Agen-
cies such as the National Labor Board and the War Labor Board were
created by Executive Order. The reorganization of the Executive depart-
ments and independent offices under the act of March 3, 1933, 1 was effected

by Order. Relief funds were allocated to specific agencies, NRA codes
were approved, and part of the machinery for farm loans and the estab-
lishment of the AAA were set up by Presidential Order. The export of
bullion was embargoed. The bank holiday was ended, the Civil Service
greatly extended, and the conservation program expanded by Executive
Order.
Different Types of Presidential Orders
The President may issue orders in any one of three roles : as the civil
Executive carrying out specific authorizations of the Congress; as the
administrative head of the Executive branch of the government; or, as
Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy. These different types of
Presidential Orders today are known as "Executive," " Administrative/ '
and "Military" Orders, respectively. However, prior to the Roosevelt
administrations no distinction was made between the first two, and many
"Executive" orders of earlier date have been of an administrative nature.
He may also issue "Presidential Regulations." These are Executive Or-
ders, but were not so headed through the inadvertence of the person who
drafted the Order, or of the Bureau of the Budget and the Department of
Justice which today must pass on every Order prior to its submittal to
the President. The List and Index do not include Military Orders,
which are issued under a different authority and for very different pur-
poses, or the Orders which have never been officially numbered, or the recent
categories of Administrative Orders or Presidential Regulations. All are
listed in the supplementary List and Index of Presidential Executive
Orders: Unnumbered Series published by the Survey in New Jersey.
The President may also order one of his Cabinet to issue an Order in
his name, or upon his direction. Such Orders, signed by officials other
than the President, are included in this list only where they have received
numbers. They are footnoted with the exact signature of the signer and
his title as given on the Order.
The President also very frequently sends letters or memoranda to his
subordinates, directing them to do some particular thing, or clothing them
with some particular power. These technically may be called "Presiden-
tial Letters" and as such are omitted from this compilation, except for a
very few early letters which have the applicability and general interest
of later Orders, and which have been included by Government officials
in the numbered series.
Varieties of the Executive Order
As anyone who is acquainted with the earlier Executive Orders knows,
no uniformity of form or style was established prior to 1873, when, in the
second administration of President Grant, the present form of the Order
became relatively well stabilized.
This variety of form creates the problem, particularly acute in the
earlier years, of just what is and what is not to be classified correctly as
an Executive Order. Where today the President would issue a formal and
detailed Order based on a draft prepared for his signature by a Cabinet
officer, many of his predecessors merely inscribed the word "Approved"
at the bottom of a Cabinet member's recommendation. At other times, the
President would write "Let it be done," or "I approve the accompanying
[vi]
recommendation, and order that it be effected." Such Orders are indi-
cated by an abstract of the recommendation on which the President acts,
enclosed in brackets, and followed by the word " approved.' '
Some orders were signed at the President's direction by his secre-
tary, such orders being incorporated in the numbered series as late as
1899. 2 Some were signed, also at the direction of the President, or in the
absence of the President, by the Secretary of State. 8 In fact seven of the
first thirty-three Orders of the numbered series (E. O.s 1 to 28-1 inclusive)
were signed by the latter official. Recently the Federal Register has at
least momentarily reverted to earlier practice and thereby has revived
problems thought dead for fifty years, by publishing in the numbered
series occasional Orders of the departmental heads * which have the same
effect in the same fields as earlier Presidential Orders.
Availability op the Executive Orders
Some compilations of Orders have been published on such special sub-
jects as Indian Reservations, the Panama Canal, the PWA, Veterans'
Regulations, etc. Many Civil Service Orders appear both in the Annual
Report of the Civil Service Commission (Washington, 1883- ), and
in the compilation known as Civil Service Acts, Rules, Regulations, etc.
(Washington, 1883-1937), though in both compilations many Orders are
given only by abstracts of the original. Other Orders appear in the
United States Code (Washington, 1935, with supps.), the Canal Record*
(Mount Hope, C. Z., 1907-1928), the Handbook of N.R.A. (Washington
and New York, 1934), the Codes of Fair Competition (Washington, 1933-
1935), the Report of the Alien Property Custodian (Washington, 1918),
Emergency Legislation Passed Prior to December 1917 (Washington,
1919) and Immigration Laws and Regulations (Washington, 1939, with
annual supplements since). Still other sources are listed below pp. 6-8.
The recent Code of Federal Regulations of the United States contains
a listing of all Orders cited anywhere in the Code, arranged both by Code
title, i.e. subject, and by number. But since the Code contains only Or-
ders of current applicability and general interest, obviously a great many
Orders are not there listed. Since its inception in 1895 under the General
Printing Act of that year, 5 the Documentary Catalog has listed every Exec-
utive Order printed in slip form by the Government Printing Office,
whether included in the numbered series or not. From 1925 to 1936, these
slip copies of Orders were made available in a small number of depository
libraries throughout the country.
The Federal Register Act of June 26, 1935,* provided for the trans-
mission to a new Division of the Federal Register in the National Archives
of three copies of certain types of public documents, including Executive
Orders, prior to Presidential signature. This Division was charged with
keeping the original when signed, and with transmitting one copy to the
Government Printing Office for publication in the new Federal Register,
the first copy of which appeared March 14, 1936.
According to this act, there were to be printed in the Federal Register
*E. 0.8 112 and 113.
s As E. O. 2.
*As E. 0.8 7757, 7758, et aL
' 28 Stat. L. 610.
• 49 Stat. L. 500.

"(1) all Presidential proclamations and Executive Orders, except such
as have no general applicability and legal effect or are effective only against
Federal agencies or persons in their capacity as officers, agents or em-
ployees thereof; (2) such documents or classes of documents as the Presi-
dent shall determine from time to time have general applicability and
legal effect, and (3) such documents or classes of documents as may be
required so as to be published by Act of Congress." 4 This naturally
greatly increased the availability of many of the Orders for the period
since 1936, but the restrictions as to "general applicability and legal
effect' ' substantially limits the number of Orders appearing in the Reg-
ister. A large number of Orders still are published only in slip form,
though every Order must today pass through the Division of the Federal
Register, where it receives a number, whether subsequently published in
the Register or not.
A full file of the Orders of the numbered series is maintained in the
State Department Records, National Archives, while current Orders are
filed in the Division of the Federal Register. There is also a complete file
of those Orders in the Law Library of Columbia University.
As will immediately be seen, all the above sources represent only par-
tial approaches to the total mass and subject matter of the Executive
Orders. Of the great bulk of the material in these Orders there is today
no other full list, no other detailed index.
The Numbered and the Unnumbered Order
No distinction can be made between the numbered and the unnum-
bered Order on the basis of subject matter, general applicability, public
interest, or legal effect. The sole difference is an arbitrary one based
entirely on whether the given Order does or does not bear a number.
This numbering was begun by the Department of State in 1907, at
which time all of the relatively few Orders then on file in that Depart-
ment were arranged chronologically and given a number, as was every
Order subsequently filed. These numbers are recorded in the Documentary
Catalog from 1907 on (60th Congress ff). Back Orders later added to
this file were given " in-between' * numbers. 1
But still many Orders did not make their way into the files of the
State Department, and so did not receive numbers. President Hoover
made a fairly successful attempt to end this situation and to regularize
the preparation and handling of these documents by Executive Order
5220* of November 8, 1929, in which he outlined a procedure by which
drafts of both proclamations and Orders were to be sent in triplicate to
the White House via the State Department, each draft bearing a suitable
title, and conforming both to the latest decisions of the United States
Geographic Board on the spelling of geographical terms, and to the Style
Manual of the Government Printing Office on orthography and punctua-
tion. The State Department was to keep one copy of the draft Order and
t Distinguished by the "-A," "%," "-1," etc., following the number.
• President Harding had made an earlier attempt to achieve conformity by Execu-
tive Order 3577 in which he fixed the form of the recital immediately preceding the
President's signature on proclamations, commissions and other formal documents, and
authorized the Secretary of State to supplement it with suggestions for general uni-
formity in Proclamations and Executive Orders.
[ viii ]
the signed original. This Order (5220) was slightly modified by Execu-
tive Orders 5658 of June 24, 1931, and 6427 of August 10, 1933. Orders
approving NRA codes of fair competition were specifically excepted from
this procedure by Executive Order 6497 of December 15, 1933. Present
procedure is regulated by Executive Order 7298 of February 18, 1936. 9
The volume of unnumbered Orders was substantially reduced by the
numbering system inaugurated in 1907. The procedural Orders since
November 8, 1929, have practically eliminated the unnumbered Order.
Some eighty-six hundred Executive Orders found a place in the num-
bered series up to January 1, 1939. The importance of the data embodied,
and the actions taken in these Orders has made this volume seem an addi-
tion worth making to the existing tools for the study of American history,
law and government. To this material the List is the calendar or chrono-
logical key, the Index the topical key.
The thanks of the editors are extended to Columbia University, which,
through its Department of History and its library staff, particularly Dr.
C. C. Williamson, Miles O. Price and Dorothy M. Peake, has contributed so
much to the present volume. The staff of the National Archives has gen-
erously aided the editors in answering many of the questions of incorrect
dating and other problem entries which occur in the available printed
Orders. To Dr. Philip Hamer is due our special thanks. To him goes
credit for eliminating a considerable number of possible errors. To us
belongs the blame for any which may remain.
The editors wish to express their gratitude to Dr. Luther H. Evans
and Sargent B. Child, former national directors of the Survey, to J. L.
Ginniff, Audrey MacMahon, and Dr. George C. Groce of the New York
City WPA, for their personal interest and attention which were of appre-
ciable aid to the production of this volume; and to Helen Calhoun, Eva
Flint, Elizabeth Hollos, Sally Cathrell, Ethel Pitney, and Virgil Regal-
buto, members of the compiling staff, without whose understanding help
the task would have been much greater than it proved to be.

THE LIST
A CAREFUL check was made of the files of Executive Orders in the
Division of the Federal Register in the fall of 1938, and every Order at
that time included in the numbered series has been here listed. The List
is based upon this source. The full text of each Order has been used as
the basis of each abstract.
The effect or extent of amendments in the various series of regulations
is given in the entries in the List where stated in the Order, or where obvi-
ous from the text, except for occasional Civil Service Orders, or Orders
amending the Consular Regulations or the Instruction to Diplomatic Offi-
cers which are so long and so involved as to make it impossible to detail
the full extent of the changes made. In such cases the entry merely notes
that the rules have been " amended' ' or " revised.' ' The reader may know
from this that the changes have been too extensive to list or that their
effect is obscure.
A knowledge of certain special word usages in the List will help its
user get fuller information from the entries than would otherwise be the
case. The word described appearing in land orders indicates that the
lands are described in detail in that Order. In other land orders, reserva-
tions are spoken of as enlarged or diminished if only additions or subtrac-
tions are effected by the Order. If some lands are added and others
' removed from the reservation by the same Order, the word modified is
used to describe the action taken.
Similarly specified or designated, as applied to people, positions, etc.,
indicate that the text of the Order actually names the people or positions
affected.
The names of customs collection districts are entered (in parentheses)
after the number of the district only where the name of the district differs
from the name of the State mentioned earlier in the entry.
Many Orders bear the footnote Has form of a proclamation. This
means that the Order is drawn either with a series of " whereas" clauses,
or with the conclusion "Done at the City of Washington," both of which
are typical of the formal proclamation, or that it is drawn to contain both.
All NRA code Orders have the form of a proclamation in this sense. Excep-
tions to this rule are noted in the entries.
The words Miss or Mrs. are used only before those women's names
which without such designation might be confused with men's.
The words United States are omitted from the titles of official bodies
except where their omission might create ambiguity. When used as a
noun, United States is spelled out ; when used as an adjective, it is abbrevi-
ated.
All Orders are listed in their chronological order. This means that
occasionally the numerical sequence is disrupted. In such cases a see entry
refers the reader from the place he might expect to find that entry in its
numerical order to the date under which it appears. Chronological order
rather than numerical order was used because of the occasional violations
of logical sequence which strict adherence to numerical order would have
caused.
All List entries use a contracted form of Department, Departmental
head, bureau and office names. These briefed forms are designed to con-
[x]
serve space without detracting from the clarity of the entry's meaning.
Abbreviations in the text of the entries include State names appearing
after other geographical place names within those States, months in dates,
designations of length or area, and the titles of military officers preceding
the name. The following abbreviations are also used:
Dept. Department
E. O. Executive Order
Proc. Proclamation
Sec'y Secretary
