By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the statutes of the United States, it is hereby ordered as follows:
That such a body would be best able to perform its nationally important tasks if created independently of the War Labor Board by the President.
The point in history at which we stand is full of promise and of danger.
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.
