N egotiation
of
T rade A greement W it h V enezuela C ontemplated
O ctober 25. 1937.
Pursuant to section 4 of an act of Congress approved June 12, 1934, entitled An Act to Amend the Tariff Act of 1930, as extended by Public Resolution No. 10, approved March 1, 1937, and Executive Order No. 6750 of June 27, 1934, the Secretary of State announced today that this Government contemplates the negotiation of a trade agree ment with Venezuela, and invited interested persons to submit suggestions as to the products that should be con sidered.
This preliminary announcement, which is made with a view to obtaining suggestions from interested persons in the early stages of the discussions, should not be confused with the formal notice of intention to negotiate regularly given.
The formal notice will be issued at a later date, after re ceipt of the proposals of the Government of Venezuela, at which time there will also be made public a list of products on which the United States will consider granting conces sions to Venezuela.
The object of this p re lim in a r y announcement is to pro vide notification at the earliest possible date that negotia
tions are contemplated, in order that interested parties may have an opportunity to suggest the import or export products which, in their opinion, should be included in the nego tiations. Such suggestions, particularly those in regard to export products, are most useful to the trade-agreements organization if available at an early stage. Full informa tion should be submitted as soon as possible. Exact tech nical descriptions of the products in question should be given, including, so far as possible, their nomenclature in the tariff laws of the importing country. These suggestions may be submitted in any form, and need not be under oath.
They should be addressed to the Chairman of the Committee for Reciprocity Information, 7th and F Streets, N. W., W ash ington, D; C., and should reach the Committee not later than November 26, 1937.
Suggestions received by the Committee for Reciprocity In
formation will be distributed promptly to all agencies of the trade-agreements organization for use in the preparation of lists of commodities that may be involved in the negotiations.
The list of commodities upon which the United States will consider the granting of concessions to Venezuela will be pub lished along with the formal notice of intention to negotiate.
The formal notice, as heretofore, will indicate dates for the submission, of briefs and applications for oral hearings, and the dates on which the customary open hearings will be held.
The listing of products will indicate to American producers and importers whether or not particular tariff rates in whiclf they are interested are under consideratidn. They will thus be saved the trouble of preparing briefs on products of inter est to them but which are not expected to be involved in the negotiations.

A detailed compilation showing the principal products in volved in the 1929 and 1936 trade between Venezuela and the United States, prepared by the Division of Foreign Trade Statistics of the Department of Commerce, may be obtained from that Division, or from any of the District Offices of the Department of Commerce, as well as from the Committee for Reciprocity Information, or the Department of State.
