Modification In Application of Safety Appliance Acts.


Under authority vested in me by law, it is ordered:

Paragraph 5 of Executive Order No. 1002, dated January 6, 1909, is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph thereto:

The application of the requirements of the Safety Appliance Acts to equipment of rolling stock at navy yards is hereby so far modified that the cars and engines at yards and stations will be fitted with safety appliances only to such extent as may, in the judgment of the commandant, subject to the approval of the Chief of the Bureau of Yards and Docks, Navy Department, be deemed necessary or advisable.
Signature of Woodrow Wilson
