By virtue of the authority vested in me by section 5 of the act of February 8, 1887, 24 Stat. 388, 389 by the act of June 21,

Page 1436

1906, 34 Stat. 325, 326, and by the act of March 2, 1917, 39 Stat. 969, 976, it is ordered that the periods of trust applying to any Indian lands, whether of a tribal or individual status, which, unless extended, will expire during the calendar year 1941, be, and they are hereby, extended for a further period of 25 years from the date on which any such trust would otherwise expire.

This order is not intended to apply to any case in which the Congress has specifically reserved to itself authority to extend the period of trust on tribal or individual Indian lands.
