FDR: “Delays in the performance of our job at home mean prolonging the war.”

All Federal agencies are directed to cooperate with the Secretary of the Interior to the fullest extent possible.

The work, my friends, is peace.

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