What president signed for 50 stars on the flag?
There have been three flag acts and three executive orders affecting the design of Old Glory. The Flag Act of 1777 called for 13 alternating red and white stripes and 13 stars on a field of blue but did not specify the proportions or arrangement of the stars. The Flag Act of 1794 called for fifteen stars and fifteen stripes after May 1795. The Flag Act of 1818 went back to one stripe for each of the original 13 states and a star for each state, so President Monroe's signature on this act authorized 50 stars 141 years before that number was needed. An executive order by President Taft in 1912 fixed the proportional size of the blue field and arranged the stars into six rows of eight stars. Two executive orders by President Eisenhower in 1959 arranged the stars in seven rows of seven stars when Alaska became a state and in nine staggered rows of 5 and 6 for Hawaii's statehood.
