OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION

WHEREAS, pursuant to section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, as amended 7 U. S. C. 624, the Secretary of Agriculture advised me there was reason to believe that tung oil is being, and is practically certain to continue to be, imported into the United States un der such conditions and in such quanti ties as to render or tend to render in effective, or materially interfere with, the price-support program undertaken by the Department of Agriculture with respect to tung nuts and tung oil, or to reduce substantially the amount of prod ucts processed in the United States from domestic tung nuts or tung oil with re spect to which such program of the De partment of Agriculture is being under taken; and WHEREAS, on March 21, 1-957, I
caused the United States Tariff Commis sion to make an investigation under the said section 22 with respect to this mat ter; and WHEREAS the said Tariff Commis sion has made such investigation ancthas reported to me its findings and recom mendation made in connection there with; and WHEREAS, on the basis of the said investigation and report of the Tariff Commission, I find that tung oil is being, and is practically certain to continue to he, imported into the United States un der such conditions and in such quanti tés as to render or tend to render ineffective or materially interfere with the said price-support program with respect to tung nuts and tung oil, and as to re duce substantially the amount of prod ucts processed in the United States from domestic tung nuts or tung oil with refe,ct to which such program is being undertaken; and tord and declare that the imposition of the quantitative limitaiions on imports of tung oil hereinafter proclaimed is shown by such investigan of the Tariff Commission to be
necessary in order that the entry of tung oil will not render or tend to render in effective, or materially interfere with, the said price-support program, or reduce substantially the amount of products processed in the United States from tung nuts or tung oil; and WHEREAS I find that the quantitative limitations hereinafter proclaimed will not reduce the permissible total quantity of tung oil which may be entered to pro portionately less than 50 per centum of the average annual quantity of tung oil entered during the representative period November 1, 1952 to October 31, 1956, inclusive; and WHEREAS the allocation of the quotas among foreign supplying coun tries as hereinafter prescribed will as sure an equitable distribution of the im ports of tung oil which may be entered hereunder, based upon the proportion of imports for consumption that such for-, eign countries supplied during the said representative period:.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, DWIGHT D.
EISENHOWER, President of the United States of America, acting under and by virtue of the authority vested in me by the said section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, as amended, do hereby proclaim 1. That for the period commencing September 9, 1957, and ending October 31, 1958, the total quantity of tung oil entered shall not exceed 26,000,000
pounds, of which no more than 846,066
