    The officers or employees to be retired refer to the officers and 
employees of the Lighthouse Service. The Lighthouse Service was under 
the Secretary of Commerce prior to the transfer and consolidation of the 
Bureau of Lighthouses, of which the Lighthouse Service was a part, with 
the Coast Guard which was under the Secretary of the Treasury by Reorg. 
Plan No. II, Sec. 2(a), set out in the Appendix to Title 5, Government 
Organization and Employees. Subsequently, the functions of the Secretary 
of the Treasury relating to the Coast Guard were transferred to the 
Secretary of Transportation by section 6(b)(1) of Pub. L. 89-670. See 
section 108 of Title 49, Transportation.
