1. WHEREAS, pursuant to section 22
of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, as added by section 31 of the act of August 24, 1935, 49 Stat. 773, reenacted by sec tion 1 of the act of June 3,1937, 50 Stat.

7 U. S. C. 624, I caused the United States Tariff Commission to make an in vestigation to determine whether certain tree nuts are being or are practically certain to be imported into the United States under such conditions and in such quantities as to render or tend to render ineffective, or materially interfere with, certain programs or operations under taken by the Department of Agriculture with respect to such nuts, or to reduce substantially the amount of any product processed in the United States from such nuts with respect to which any such program or operation is being under taken; and 2. WHEREAS the Commission insti tuted such investigation on April 13, 1950, and on November 24,1950 reported to me that there was at that time no basis for any action under the said sec tion 22 with respect to imports of such nuts, but that it was continuing the in vestigation; and 3. WHEREAS, after further investiga tion, including a public hearing, the Commission, on November 28, 1951, re ported to me regarding the need for action under the said section 22 in order to protect the programs of the United States Department of Agriculture for the crop year 1951-52 with respect to al monds, pecans, filberts, and walnuts, in which report the Commission found that the imposition of a specified fee on im ports of shelled aimonds and of blanched, roasted, or otherwise prepared or pre served almonds not including almond paste entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the
period October 1, 1951 to September 30, 1952, inclusive, in excess of a specified aggregate quantity, was necessary to pre vent imports of such almonds from ren dering ineffective or materially inter fering with the program undertaken by the Department of Agriculture with re spect to almonds; and 4. WHEREAS, in accordance with the Commissions recommendation in the said report of November 28, 1951, on December 10, 1951 I issued a proclama tion pursuant to the said section 22 im posing a fee on imports of shelled almonds and on blanched, roasted, or otherwise prepared or preserved almonds entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period October 1, 1951 to September 30, 1952.
inclusive, in excess of a certain aggregate quantity, as specified in the Commissions recommendation; and 5. WHEREAS the Commission con tinued the said investigation for the purpose of reporting to the President regarding any later action which might be found to be necessary to carry out the purposes of the said section 22; and 6. WHEREAS, after further investiga tion, including a hearing, for the purpose of determining what action, if any, should be taken under the said section 22
with respect to imports of certain tree nuts, to prevent imports of such nuts from entering during the 1952-53 crop year under such conditions and in such quantities as to render or tend to render ineffective, or materially interfere with, programs undertaken by the Department of Agriculture with respect to almonds, filberts, walnuts, or pecans, or to reduce substantially the amount of any product processed in the United States from do mestic almonds, filberts, walnuts, or pecans, the Commission reported to me on September 25, 1952 its findings re sulting from such investigation; and 7. WHEREAS, on the basis of such further investigation and report of the Commission, I find that shelled almonds, blanched, roasted, or otherwise prepared or preserved almonds not including al mond paste are practically certain to be imported into the United States dur ing the period October 1, 1952 to Sep tember 30, 1953, both dates inclusive, under such conditions and in such quan C on tin u ed o n p. 8647
