FDR: “The government has made provision for many of the most needy.”

The Secretary of the Interior shall make employment available and provide protection to all employees working at such mines.

The Secretary of the Interior is authorized and directed to take possession of any and all such mines.

Possession of any mine or mines taken under this order shall be terminated by the Secretary of the Interior as soon as he determines that such possession is no longer required for the successful prosecution of the war.

I wish I had the power, just for this evening, to be present at all of these gatherings.
