Including all products on which concessions including bindings were granted by the United States in the trade agreement with Canada, signed on November 15, 1935.
N ote .The rates of duty indicated are those now applicable to products of Canada. Where the rate is one which has been re duced pursuant to a previous trade agreement by 50 percent the maximum permitted in the Trade Agreements Act it is indicated by the symbol MR.

Where a rate has been bound against increase, but has not been reduced, in a previous trade agreement, it is indicated by the symbol B;
likewise, items which have been bound free of duty are indicated by the symbol B.

For the purpose of facilitating identification of the articles listed, reference is made in the list to the paragraph numbers of the tariff schedules in the Tariff Act of 1930, or, as the case may be, to the appropriate sections of the Revenue Act of 1932, as amended. The descriptive phraseology is, how ever, in many cases lim ited to a narrower field than that covered by the numbered tariff paragraph or section in the Revenue Act. In such cases only the articles covered by the descriptive phraseology of the list will come under con sideration for the granting of concessions.
In the event that articles which are at present regarded as classifiable under the descriptions included in the above list are excluded therefrom by judicial decision or otherwise prior to the conclusion of the agreement, the list will nevertheless be considered as including such articles.
