I hereby appoint Benjamin W. Thoron, Director, Division of Territories and Island Possessions, Department of the Interior, as Administrator of the Puerto Rico Reconstruction Administration.

The Administrator shall compile data and make continuing surveys with respect to the effect of the prices charged for petroleum upon the efficient wartime operations of the petroleum industry.

Nothing in this Order shall be deemed to limit in any way the authority of the Departments of War and Navy to initiate or carry out directly, without review or approval by the Administrator, any action relating to petroleum.

Let us turn again to the work that confronts us in this time of national emergency.

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord.

We must keep every pound we can on our wheels to maintain our wartime transportation system.

I do hereby invite the attention of the people to the joint resolution of Congress approved December 26, 1941.

It is fitting that we recall now the reverent words of George Washington.

I recommend that all of us bear in mind this great Psalm:

We must do everything within our power to see that the program starts December first.

I would say they all do mutually, and they are supposed to agree.

Sure, we are going to rehabilitate them.

Well, I think all I can say is that I got an intimation of it several days ago, and that I am delighted that it is going so well.

Now they are just engaging in doodles.

I guess the answer is that they work it out together.

I can take two blueprints of exactly the same kind of organization, and those two blueprints won't look like each other at all.

No person shall have in his possession within the limits of any defensive sea area, any camera or other device for taking pictures.

I hereby further exempt the said George T. Summerlin from compulsory retirement for age for such time as may be deemed necessary, but not beyond the close of business November 30, 1947.
