Creation and Authority.--The Department of Justice was established by the act of June 22, 1870 (1 Stat. 92; 16 Stat. 162; 5 U.S.C. 291), with the Attorney General at its head. Prior to 1870 the Attorney General was a member of the President's Cabinet, but not the head of a department, the office having been created under authority of the act of September 24, 1789, as amended (1 Stat. 92; 16 Stat. 162; 5 U.S.C. 291). Not until May 31, 1918, however, were the

legal offices of the various Government agencies consolidated in the Department of Justice. This was done, largely as a wartime measure, by Executive Order 2877 of that date.

Purpose.--The chief purposes of the Department of Justice are to provide means for the enforcement of the Federal laws, to furnish legal counsel in Federal cases, and to construe the laws under which other departments act. It conducts all suits in the Supreme Court in which the United States is concerned, supervises the Federal penal institutions, and investigates and detects violations against Federal laws. It represents the Government inn legal matters generally, rendering legal advice and opinions, upon request, to the President and to the heads of the executive departments. The Attorney General supervises and directs the activities of the United States district attorneys and marshals in the various judicial districts.

Organization.--The affairs and activities of the Department of Justice are generally directed by the Attorney General. In the office of the Attorney General are an Executive Assistant to the Attorney General and a Director of Public relations. The Department of Justice has the following offices, divisions, bureaus, and boards:

Offices:
Office of the Attorney General
Office of the Solicitor General
Office of the Assistant to the Attorney General
Office of the Assistant Solicitor General
Office of the Pardon Attorney
Divisions:
Antitrust Division
Tax Division
Claims Division
Lands Division
Criminal Division
War Division
Customs Division
Administrative Division
Bureaus:
Federal Bureau of Investigation

Activities

The Attorney General.--The Attorney General, as head of the Department of Justice and chief law officer of the Federal Government, represents the United States in legal matters generally and gives advice and opinions to the President and to the heads of the executive departments when so requested. The Attorney General himself represents the Government in the United States Supreme Court in cases of exceptional gravity or importance. The Executive Assistant to the Attorney General and the Director of Public Relations are attached to the Office of the Attorney General and report directly to him.

The Solicitor General.--Under the direction of the Attorney General, the Solicitor General has special charge of the business of, and appears for and represents, the Government in the Supreme Court. When requested by the Attorney General, the Solicitor General may conduct and argue any case in which the United States is interested, in any court of the United States, or may attend to the interests of the Government in any State court or elsewhere, conferring with and directing the activities of the Federal law officers throughout the country when the occasion so requires. No appeal is taken by the United States to any appellate court without the authorization of the Solicitor General.

The Assistant to the Attorney General.--The Assistant to the Attorney General, under the Attorney General, has supervision over all major units of organization of the Department, and over United States Attorneys and Marshals. He is chief liaison officer of the Department with Congress and with other governmental departments and agencies.

The office of the Assistant to the Attorney General has direction of all personnel administration for the Department, including all appointments, the administration of Federal employees compensation and retirement acts, classification, and personnel relations.

This office supervises the handling of all appeals referred from appeal boards to the Department of Justice for inquiry and hearing with respect to the character and good faith of those are conscientiously opposed to war. It also serves as liaison with the Director of Selective Service in all matters arising under the Selective Service Act and passes upon all requests for deferment on the part of any personnel of the Department which may be in the public interest. All matters relating to parole of those persons who have been convicted of any violation of the provisions of the Selective Service Act clear through the office of the Assistant to the Attorney General.

The Assistant Solicitor General.--The Assistant Solicitor General has the responsibility of preparing the formal opinions of the Attorney General and of rendering informal opinions and legal advice to the various governmental agencies. Bills incorporating legislative proposals which originate in the Department of Justice are drafted in his office. The office assists the Attorney General in answering requests from the Bureau of the Budget for recommendations with respect to legislation originating elsewhere in the Government, in answering requests from congressional committees for his views upon pending legislation, and in recommending to the President approval or veto of enrolled bills. Another function of the office is the reviewing of all proposed Executive orders and proclamations as to form and legality. The office also performs special assignments from the Attorney General and the Solicitor General.
