Talk:Joseph W. Barr
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
why did he serve for such a short period of time?
Excerp from: http://www.helium.com/tm/235464/value-federal-reserve-notes
"Their glee centered around the fact that Barr would be leaving office when Lyndon Baines Johnson turned over the Presidency to Richard M. Nixon a month later. Surely the Federal Reserve notes carrying the signature of a Treasury Secretary in office for less than a month would be worth a small fortune, many thought.
When, on January 22, 1969, two days after taking office, the new President appointed David M. Kennedy to replace Barr" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.165.118.28 (talk) 00:37, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
