Providing for the Closing of Government 
                Departments and agencies on April 27, 1994

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
                Section 1. All executive departments, independent 
                establishments, and other governmental agencies, 
                including their field services, shall be closed on 
                April 27, 1994, as a mark of respect for Richard 
                Milhous Nixon, the thirty-seventh President of the 
                United States. That day shall be considered as falling 
                within the scope of 5 U.S.C. 6103(b), and of all 
                statutes so far as they relate to the compensation and 
                leave of employees of the United States.
                Sec. 2. The first sentence of section 1 of this order 
                shall not apply to those offices and installations, or 
                parts thereof, in the Department of State, the 
                Department of Defense, or other departments, 
                independent establishments, and governmental agencies 
                that the heads thereof determine should remain open for 
                reasons of national security or defense or other public 
                reasons.

                    (Presidential Sig.)


                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    April 23, 1994.
