This executive order, signed by President Lyndon B. Johnson on 1965-01-30, establishes federal administrative policy concerning "Placing Additional Positions in Levels IV and V of the Federal Executive Salary Schedule." It is a direct, concise executive instruction delivering focused administrative or military commands to department leadership.

Constitutional Assessment: Reviewed under the Tenth Amendment and the principle of dual federalism, this order touches upon domains traditionally reserved to the sovereign States.
