Eisenhower: “Opportunities must be accompanied by important responsibilities.”

The Secretary of the Interior shall keep under review the Imports Into District I, Districts II-IV, and District V of residual fuel oil to be used as fuel.

I find and declare that adjustments must be made in the imports of crude oil and unfinished oils for overestimates and underestimates of total demand.

I feel now it would be futile for me to attempt anything else in the way of words.

I assure you that our obligation to you is deep and lasting.
