The following order will supersede that of June 8, 1909, as to hours of labor on Saturday during the months mentioned.

It is hereby ordered that during the months of July, August and September of each year until further notice, four hours, exclusive of time for luncheon, shall constitute a day's work on Saturdays for all clerks and other employees of the Federal Government wherever employed; and all executive or other orders in conflict herewith, except the executive order of April 4, 1908, relating to certain naval stations, are hereby revoked.

Provided, however, That this order shall not apply to any bureau or office of the Government, or to any of the clerks or other employees thereof, that may for special public reasons be excepted therefrom by the head of the department having supervision or control of such bureau or office, or where the same would be inconsistent with the provisions of existing law.
