       For each and every gross tons in excess of 100 gross tons................................... .05

    Section 18. Every vessel coming within the provisions of this Order shall be provided with such number of lifeboats, floats, rafts, life-preservers, line carrying projectiles and best means of propelling them, lights, drags, anchors, and with such other equipment, as, in the judgment of the Board of Local Inspectors, will best procure the safety of all persons on board such vessels in case of disaster. And every such vessel shall have the lifeboats required by this Order provided with suitable boat disengaging apparatus, so arranged as to allow such boats to be safely launched while such vessels are under speed, or otherwise, so as to allow such disengaging apparatus to be operated by one person, disengaging both ends of the boat simultaneously from the tackle by which it may be lowered to the water; and the Board of Local Inspectors shall determine the kind of lifeboats, floats, rafts, life-preservers, line carrying projectiles and means of propelling the same, lights, drags, anchors, and other equipment which are to be used on the vessel; and also the kind and capacity of the pumps for freeing the vessel from water in case of heavy leakage, the capacity of such pumps being suited to the navigation in which the vessel is employed.

See Executive Order 2832, April 2, 1918.
Signed by President Woodrow Wilson Friday, September 13, 1918
By virtue of the authority vested in me by "An Act to define, regulate and punish trading with the enemy, and for other purposes", approved October 6, 1917, known as the "Trading with the enemy Act", and the amendments thereto embodied in "An Act making appropriations to supply urgent deficiencies in appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1918, and prior fiscal years, on account of war expenses, and for other purposes", approved March 28th, 1918, and all other powers and authorities me hereto enabling, I hereby, in the public interest, make the following determination and order:
Whereas, A. Mitchell Palmer, Alien Property Custodian, has reported to me that a certain property known as the "Helios" Cigar Factory, part of Germann & Company, Inc., was offered for sale at Manila, in the Philippines, by Francis Burton Harrison, the Custodian's representative in the Philippines, on May 1st, 1918, and the said property was bid in by Walter E. Olsen & Company, on May 7th, 1918, and that the said sale was not advertised or conducted in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by me, as required by the said "Trading with the enemy Act", as amended, nor in accordance with the instructions and policies of A. Mitchell Palmer, Alien Property Custodian, and that he has therefore disapproved the said sale;
Now, therefore, I hereby declare the said sale to be void and of no effect, and I hereby authorize and direct the Alien Property Custodian to reject all bids received at the said sale, including the bid of the said Walter E. Olsen & Company.
My reasons for the foregoing determination and order are:
    (1) The short notice given of the sale, and inadequate opportunity for purchasers to inform and prepare themselves to bid.
    (2) The exclusion of the public from the sale, which deprived it of the public character required by the aforesaid Act of Congress as amended.
    (3) The advertised conditions of the sale excluded American corporations who are legally entitled to bid, and contained several objectionable details.
    (4) The sale was not made under the rules and regulations prescribed by me and as required by said Act as amended, and not in accordance with the instructions and policies of the Alien Property Custodian.

The Alien Property Custodian may sell at private sale, without public or other advertisement, any seats upon or memberships in, any stock, cotton, grain, produce, or other exchanges incorporated or organized and existing anywhere within the United States as defined in the "Trading with the enemy Act;" and any such sale or sales may be made and conducted wherever and upon such terms and conditions as the Alien Property Custodian or his authorized agent shall determine.
My reasons, in the public interest, for the foregoing determination, order, rule and regulation are:
    (a) The methods required by law and the character of said property to be pursued in the sale thereof are such that the power of sale vested in the Alien Property Custodian cannot be exercised effectively except at private sale; in that such seats upon or memberships in said exchanges can be purchased only by persons who are already members of said exchange or who are approved by said exchange according to its Constitution and By-Laws, and such seats upon or memberships in said exchanges can be sold and transferred therefore only to persons who are members of, or who are approved by the exchange the seat upon or membership in which is the subject matter of sale.
    (b) The sales hereby authorized may be made at the time and place of most favorable demand and upon such terms and conditions as may be necessary to secure the best market price.
    (c) Unnecessary expense, delay and inconvenience may be avoided.
