[H. J. Res. 267]

 Whereas the Congress has declared it to be the policy of the United States to combat hunger and malnutrition and to encourage economic development in the developing countries; and Whereas two years of drought have caused a grave food shortage in India which threatens the lives and health of millions of people; and Whereas the urgency of the need of the Indian people and the time needed for congressional deliberation have required the United States already to commit three million six hundred thousand tons of grain valued at $275,000,000 as a part of the eight to ten million tons of grain estimated to be required during the calendar year 1967 from outside India to prevent irreparable hardship to the people of India; and Whereas the programs of economic and agricultural development which have been launched by the Government of India would be seriously impaired if the international community failed to act promptly and on an adequate scale to meet the urgent needs of the people of India: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That the Congress approves

India.

The Congress endorses the President’s policy of equal participation

Public information.

80 Stat. 383.
That section 552 of title 5, United States Code, is amended to read:
“§ 552. Public information; agency rules, opinions, orders, records, and proceedings “(a) Each agency shall make available to the public information as follows: “(1)

Publication in Federal Register.

 Each agency shall separately state and currently publish in the Federal Register for the guidance of the public— “(A) descriptions of its central and field organization and the established places at which, the employees (and in the case of a uniformed service, the members) from whom, and the methods whereby, the public may obtain information, make submittals or requests, or obtain decisions; “(B) statements of the general course and method by which its functions are channeled and determined, including the nature and requirements of all formal and informal procedures available; “(C) rules of procedure, descriptions of forms available or the places at which forms may be obtained, and instructions as to the scope and contents of all papers, reports, or examinations; “(D) substantive rules of general applicability adopted as authorized by law, and statements of general policy or interpretations of general applicability formulated and adopted by the agency; and “(E) each amendment, revision, or repeal of the foregoing. Except to the extent that a person hits actual and timely notice of the terms thereof, a person may not in any manner be required to resort to, or be adversely affected by, a matter required to be published in the Federal Register and not so published. For the purpose of this paragraph, matter reasonably available to the class of persons affected thereby is deemed published in the Federal Register when incorporated by reference therein with the approval of the Director of the Federal Register. “(2)

Inspection and copying.

 Each agency, in accordance with published rules, shall make available for public inspection and copying— “(A) final opinions, including concurring and dissenting opinions, as well as orders, made in the adjudication of cases; “(B) those statements of policy and interpretations which have been adopted by the agency and are not published in the Federal Register; and “(C) administrative staff manuals and instructions to staff that affect a member of the public; unless the materials are promptly published and copies offered for sale. To the extent required to prevent a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy, an agency may delete identifying details when it makes available or publishes an opinion, statement of policy, interpretation, or staff manual or instruction. However, in each case the justification for the deletion shall be explained fully in writing. Each agency also shall maintain and make available for public inspection and copying a current index providing identifying information for the public as to any matter issued, adopted, or promulgated after July 4, 1967,

and required by this paragraph to be made available or published. A final order, opinion, statement of policy, interpretation, or staff manual 81 Stat. 55or instruction that affects a member of the public may be relied on, used, or cited as precedent by an agency against a party other than an agency only if— “(i) it has been indexed and either made available or published as provided by this paragraph; or “(ii) the party has actual and timely notice of the terms thereof. “(3) Except with respect to the records made available under paragraphs (1) and (2) of this subsection, each agency, on request for identifiable records made in accordance with published rules stating the time, place, fees to the extent authorized by statute, and procedure to be followed, shall make the records promptly available to any person. On complaint, the district court of the United States in the district in which the complainant resides, or has his principal place of business, or in which the agency records are situated, has jurisdiction to enjoin the agency from withholding agency records and to order the production of any agency records improperly withheld from the complainant. In such a case the court shall determine the matter de novo and the burden is on the agency to sustain its action. In the event of noncompliance with the order of the court, the district court may punish for contempt the responsible employee, and in the case of a uniformed service, the responsible member. Except as to causes the court considers of greater importance, proceedings before the district court, as authorized by this paragraph, take precedence on the docket over all other causes and shall be assigned for hearing and trial at the earliest practicable date and expedited in every way. “(4) Each agency having more than one member shall maintain and make available for public inspection a record of the final votes of each member in every agency proceeding. “(b) This section does not apply to matters that are—

Nonapplicabillty.

 “(1) specifically required by Executive order to be kept secret in the interest of the national defense or foreign policy; “(2) related solely to the internal personnel rules and practices of an agency: “(3) specifically exempted from disclosure by statute: “(4) trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a person and privileged or confidential: “(5) inter-agency or intra-agency memorandums or letters which would not be available by law to a party other than an agency in litigation with the agency; “(8) personnel and medical files and similar files the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy; “(7) investigatory files compiled for law enforcement purposes except to the extent available by law to a party other than an agency; “(8) contained in or related to examination, operating, or condition reports prepared by, on behalf of, or for the use of an agency responsible for the regulation or supervision of financial institutions; or “(9) geological and geophysical information and data, including maps, concerning wells. “(c) This section does not authorize withholding of information or limit the availability of records to the public, except as specifically stated in this section. This section is not authority to withhold

65 Stat. 83.

 Section 6(h) (50 App. U.S.C. 456(h)) is amended to read as follows: “(h) (1) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the President shall, under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, provide for the deferment from training and service in the Armed Forces of persons satisfactorily pursuing a full-time course of instruction at a college, university, or similar institution of learning and who request such deferment. A deferment granted to any person under authority of the preceding sentence shall continue until such person completes the requirements for his baccalaureate degree, fails to pursue satisfactorily a full-time course of instruction, or attains the twenty-fourth anniversary of the date of his birth, whichever first occurs. Student deferments provided for under this paragraph may be substantially restricted or terminated by the President only upon a finding by him that the needs of the Armed Forces require such action. No person who has received a student deferment under the provisions of this paragraph shall thereafter be granted a deferment under this subsection, nor shall any such person be granted a deferment under subsection (i) of this section if he has been awarded a baccalaureate degree, except for extreme hardship to dependents (under regulations governing hardship deferments), or for graduate study, occupation, or employment necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest. Any person who is in a deferred status under the provisions of subsection (i) of this section after attaining the nineteenth anniversary of the date of his birth, or who requests and is granted a student deferment under this paragraph, shall, upon the termination of such deferred status or deferment, and if qualified, be liable for induction as a registrant within the prime age group irrespective of his actual age, unless he is otherwise deferred under one of the exceptions

“Prime age group.”

specified in the preceding sentence. As used in this subsection, the term ‘prime age group’ means the age group which has been designated by the President as the age group from which selections for induction into the Armed Forces are first to be made after delinquents and volunteers. “(2)

Occupational deferments.

 Except as otherwise provided in this subsection the President is authorized, under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, to provide for the deferment from training and service in the Armed Forces of any or all categories of persons whose employment in indus-81 Stat. 103try, agriculture, or other occupations or employment, or whose continued service in an Office (other than an Office described in subsection (f)) under the United States or any State, territory, or possession,

 or the District of Columbia, or whose activity in graduate study, research, or medical, dental, veterinary, optometric, osteopathic, scientific, pharmaceutical, chiropractic, chiropodial, or other endeavors is found to be necessary to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest : Provided, That no person within any such category shall be deferred except upon the basis of his individual status: Provided further, That persons who are or may be deferred under the provisions of this section shall remain liable for training and service in the Armed Forces under the provisions of section 4(a) of this Act until the thirty-fifth anniversary

Dependents.

 under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, to provide for the deferment from training and service in the Armed Forces (1) of any or all categories of persons in a status with respect to persons (other than wives alone, except in cases of extreme hardship) dependent upon them for support which renders their deferment advisable, and (2) of any or all categories of those persons found to be physically, mentally, or morally deficient or defective. For the purpose of determining whether or not the deferment of any person is advisable, because of his status with respect to persons dependent upon him for support, any payments of allowances which are payable by the United States to the dependents of persons serving in the Armed Forces of the United States shall be taken into consideration, but the fact that such payments of allowances are payable shall not be deemed conclusively to remove the grounds for deferment when the dependency is based upon financial considerations and shall not be deemed to remove the ground for deferment when the dependency is based upon other than financial considerations and cannot be eliminated by financial assistance to the dependents. Except as otherwise provided in this subsection, the President is also authorized, under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, to provide for the deferment from training and service in the Armed Forces of any or all categories of persons who have children, or wives and children, with whom they maintain a bona fide family relationship in their homes.

As

“Religious training and belief.”

used in this subsection, the term ‘religious training and belief’ does not include essentially political, sociological, or philosophical views, or a merely personal moral code. Any person claiming exemption from combatant training and service because of such conscientious objections whose claim is sustained by the local board shall, if he is inducted into the armed forces under this title, be assigned to noncombatant service as defined by the President, or shall, if he is found to be conscientiously opposed to participation in such noncombatant service, in lieu of such induction, be ordered by his local board, subject to such regulations as the President may prescribe, to perform for a period

That the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, as amended, is amended by adding the following new section:
“Sec. 318. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary, if he determines that it will not impair the effective operation of the tobacco marketing quota or price support programs, (1) may permit the owner and operator of any farm for which a Fire-cured, dark air-cured, or Virginia sun-cured tobacco acreage allotment or acreage-poundage quota is established under this Act to sell or lease all or any part or the right to all or any part of such allotment or quota to any other owner or operator of a farm for transfer to such farm; and (2) may permit the owner of a farm to transfer all or any part of such allotment or quota to any other farm owned or controlled by him. “(b)

Conditions.

 Transfers under this section shall be subject to the following conditions: (1) no allotment or quota shall be transferred to a farm in another county; (2) no transfer of an allotment or quota from a farm subject to a mortgage or other lien shall be permitted unless the transfer is agreed to by the lienholders; (3) no sale of a farm allotment or quota from a farm shall be permitted if any sale of allotment or quota to the same farm has been made within the three immediately preceding crop years; and (4) no transfer of allotment or quota shall be effective until a record thereof is filed with the county committee of the county to which such transfer is made and such committee determines that the transfer complies with the provisions of this section. “(c)

Acreage history and marketing quota, transfer.

 The transfer of an allotment or quota under this section shall have the effect of transferring also the acreage history and marketing quota attributable to such allotment or quota and if the transfer is made prior to the determination of the allotment or quota for any year the transfer shall include the right of the owner or operator to have an allotment or quota determined for the farm for such year: Provided, That in the case of a transfer by lease the amount of the allotment or quota shall be considered for purposes of determining allotments or quotas after the expiration of the lease to have been planted on the farm from which such allotment is transferred. “(d)

New farm allotment, restriction.

 The land in the farm from which the entire tobacco allotment or quota has been transferred shall not be eligible for a new farm tobacco allotment or quota during the five years following the year in which such transfer is made. “(e)

Allotment adjustment.

 If the normal yield established by the county committee for the farm to which the allotment is transferred does not exceed the normal yield established by the county committee for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by more than 10 per centum, the transfer shall be approved acre for acre. If the normal yield for the farm to which the allotment is transferred exceeds the normal yield for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by more than 10 per centum, the county committee shall make a downward adjustment in the amount of the acreage allotment transferred by multiplying the normal yield established for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by the acreage being transferred and dividing the result by the normal yield established for the farm to which the allotment is transferred. 81 Stat. 121 “(f) Any lease under this section may be made for such term of years not to exceed five as the parties thereto agree, and on such other terms and conditions except as otherwise provided in this section as the parties thereto agree. “(g) Under the provisions of this section not more than ten acres of allotment may be transferred to any farm: Provided, That the total acreage allotted to any farm after such transfer shall not exceed 50 per cent um of the acreage of cropland in the farm. “(h) The lease of any part of a tobacco acreage allotment or acre-age-poundage

The problem, however, is not one which can be solved at any one level of government. The Federal Government has a responsibility to investigate the gravity of this situation and to determine whether such materials are harmful to the public, and particularly to minors, and whether more effective methods should be devised to control the transmission of such materials. The State and local governments have an equal responsibility in the exercise of their regulatory powers and any attempts to control this transmission should be a coordinated effort at the various governmental levels. It is the purpose of this Act to establish an advisory commission whose purpose shall be, after a thorough study which shall include a study of the causal relationship of such materials to antisocial behavior, to recommend advisable, appropriate, effective, and constitutional means to deal effectively with such traffic in obscenity and pornography.

(b) Membership of the Commission.—The Commission shall be composed of eighteen members appointed by the President (c) Vacancies.—Any vacancy in the Commission shall be filled by appointment by the President. (d) Organization of Commission.—The Commission shall elect a Chairman and a Vice Chairman from among its members. (e) Quorum.—Ten members of the Commission shall constitute a quorum, but five members shall be sufficient for the purpose of taking testimony or interrogating witnesses.
compensation of members of the commission Sec. 3. (a) Members Employed by United States.—Members of the Commission who are officers or full-time employees of the United States shall serve without compensation in addition to that received for their services as officers or employees of the United States; but they shall be allowed travel expenses, including per diem in lieu of subsistence, as authorized by section 5703 of title 5, United States Code, for persons in the Government service employed intermittently. (b) Other Members.—Members of the Commission who are not officers or full-time employees of the United States shall each receive $75 per diem when engaged in the actual performance of duties vested in the Commission.

 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
That this Act may

 be cited as the “Foreign Assistance Act of 1967”.
PART I CHAPTER 1— POLICY
Sec. 101. Section 102 of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as

75 Stat. 424.

22 USC 2151.

 amended, which relates to the statement of policy, is amended to read as follows:
“Sec. 102. Statement of Policy.—

The Congress declares that the freedom, security, and prosperity of the United States are best sustained in a community of free, secure, and prospering nations. In particular, the Congress recognizes the threat to world peace posed by aggression and subversion wherever they occur, and that ignorance, want, and despair breed the extremism and violence which lead to aggression and subversion. The Congress declares therefore that it is not only expressive of our sense of freedom, justice, and compassion but also important to our national security that the United States, through private as well as public efforts, assist the people of less developed countries in their efforts to acquire the knowledge and resources essential for development and to build the economic, political, and social institutions which will meet their aspirations for a better life, with freedom, and in peace.

81 Stat. 446

“In addition, the Congress declares that it is the policy of the United States to support the principles of increased economic cooperation and trade among countries, freedom of the press, information, and religion, freedom of navigation in international waterways, and recognition of the right of all private persons to travel and pursue their lawful activities without discrimination as to race or religion. The Congress further declares that any distinction made by foreign nations between American citizens because of race, color, or religion in the granting of, or the exercise of, personal or other rights available to American citizens is repugnant to our principles.

“The Congress further declares that to achieve the objectives of this Act, programs authorized by this Act should be carried out in accordance with the following principles:

 “First , development is primarily the responsibility of the people of the less developed countries themselves. Assistance from the United States shall be used in support of, rather than substitution for, the self-help efforts that are essential to successful development programs, and shall be concentrated in those countries that take positive steps to help themselves. Maximum effort shall be made, in the administration of this Act, to stimulate the involvement of the people in the development process through the encouragement of democratic participation in private and local governmental activities and institution-building appropriate to the requirements of the recipient nations. “Second , the tasks of successful development in some instances require the active involvement and cooperation of many countries on a multilateral basis. Therefore, to the maximum extent practicable, other countries shall be encouraged to increase their contributions to development programs and projects so that the cost of such common undertakings, which are for the benefit of all, may be shared equitably by all. “Third , assistance shall be utilized to encourage regional cooperation by less developed countries in the solution of common problems and the development of shared resources. “Fourth , the first objects of assistance shall be to support the efforts of less developed countries to meet the fundamental needs of their peoples for sufficient food, good health, home ownership and decent housing, and the opportunity to gain the basic knowledge and skills required to make their own way forward to a brighter future. In supporting these objectives, particular emphasis shall be placed on utilization of resources for food production and voluntary family planning. “Fifth , assistance shall wherever practicable be constituted of United States commodities and services furnished in a manner consistent with other efforts of the United States to improve its balance of payments position. “Sixth , assistance shall be furnished in such a manner as to promote efficiency and economy in operations so that the United States obtains maximum possible effectiveness for each dollar spent. 81 Stat. 447 “Seventh

, to the maximum extent practicable, the furnishing of agricultural commodities, disposal of excess property, and United States payments to international lending institutions, undertaken pursuant to this or any other Act, shall complement and be coordinated with assistance provided under this part.

“It is the sense of the Congress that every effort must be made to

Middle East, permanent peace efforts.

obtain a permanent peace in the Middle East. To help promote that objective, the United States should encourage, as part of pacific settlement, direct talks among the parties concerned, using such third party or United Nations assistance as they may wish. To this end, the President should undertake immediately (1) a thorough review of the needs of the several countries of that area, and (2) a reevaluation of United States policies aimed at helping meet those needs and securing a permanent peace in the area.

“It is further the sense of the Congress that in any case in which any foreign country has severed diplomatic relations with the United States, the President should suspend assistance to such country under this or any other Act, including any program designed to complement assistance under this Act (such as sales of agricultural commodities under the Agricultural Trade Development and Assistance Act of 1954). When diplomatic relations are resumed, a further study should

68 Stat. 454.

7 USC 1691 note.

be made on a country-by-country basis to determine whether United States foreign policy objectives would be served by extending assistance under this or any other Act, including any program designed to complement such assistance.”

68 Stat. 454.

 Act of 1954, as amended, should complement assistance furnished under this Act; “(c) assisting recipient countries in their efforts to meet increasing needs for trained manpower in their development efforts by improving education planning and research, training teachers and administrators, developing and constructing educational institutions, and using modern educational technology; “(d) developing programs to combat malnutrition, to control and eradicate disease, to clear slums, and to provide adequate and safe drinking water, adequate sewage disposal systems, overall health education, maternal and child care, and voluntary family planning services which shall, where feasible, be included as part of programs of maternal and child care, and other public health assistance; and “(e) other important development activities including assistance for programs to assist industrial development; the growth of free labor unions, cooperatives, and voluntary agencies; improvement of transportation and communication systems; development of capabilities for sound economic planning and public administration; urban development; and modernization of existing laws to facilitate economic development.

“Sec. 209. Multilateral and Regional Programs.— (a) Multi-lateral Programs.— The Congress recognizes that planning and administration of development assistance by, or under the sponsorship of, multilateral lending institutions and other international organizations may, in some instances, contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of that assistance through participation of other donors in the development effort, improved coordination of policies and programs, pooling of knowledge, avoidance of duplication of facilities and manpower, and greater encouragement of self-help performance. “(b) Regional Programs.— It is further the sense of the Congress (1) that where problems or opportunities are common to two or more countries in a region, in such fields as agriculture, education, transportation, communications, power, watershed development, disease control, and establishment of development banks, these countries often can more effectively resolve such problems and exploit such opportunities by joining together in regional organizations or working together on regional programs, (2) that assistance often can be utilized more efficiently in regional programs than in separate country programs, and (3) that to the maximum extent practicable consistent with the purposes of this Act assistance under this Act should be furnished so as to encourage less developed countries to cooperate with each other in regional development programs.”

That the consent of

Wheeling Creek Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention District Compact.

 Congress is given to the interstate compact relating to the Wheeling Creek Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention District between the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of West Virginia, ratified by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in an Act approved by the Governor of such Commonwealth on August 2, 1967. and by the State of West Virginia in an Act approved by the Governor of such State on March 1, 1967. Such compact reads as follows: “WHEELING CREEK WATERSHED PROTECTION AND FLOOD PREVENTION DISTRICT COMPACT
“ARTICLE I. RECITATION OF REASONS FOR COMPACT. “Whereas, Wheeling Creek, a tributary of the Ohio River, arises in Pennsylvania, flows through Washington and Greene Counties of that commonwealth, enters the State of West Virginia, flows through Marshall and Ohio Counties, West Virginia, and empties into the Ohio River at Wheeling, West Virginia; and “Whereas, The inhabitants of Marshall and Ohio Counties, West Virginia, and, also, but to a much lesser degree, the inhabitants of Washington and Greene Counties, Pennsylvania, living along Wheeling Creek have over the years experienced loss of life and property from flooding of that stream; and 81 Stat. 554 “Whereas, Surveys made by the Soil Conservation Service of the United States Department of Agriculture indicate that the inhabitants of the four counties named can best lie protected from the flooding of Wheeling Creek by flood prevention dams constructed thereon with some of the dams being located on the upper reaches of the stream and its tributaries in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; and “Whereas, The federal Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention

16 USC 1001 note.

 Act of 1954, as amended, authorizes, under certain circumstances, federal assistance to local organizations in preparing and carrying out undertakings for flood prevention and the conservation, development, utilization and disposal of water in watershed or subwatershed areas: and “Whereas, No local organization within the meaning of the federal act aforesaid established by or organized under the laws of West Virginia is competent under state laws to acquire land for, construct, and operate with or without federal assistance flood prevention facilities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and it appears that no such local organization established by or organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania can justify the expenditure of locally raised funds to construct and operate flood prevention facilities which will benefit primarily the inhabitants of the neighboring State of West Virginia; and “Whereas, Facilities erected on the upper reaches of Wheeling Creek and its tributaries for flood control and prevention can nevertheless have a recreational value for the citizens of both West Virginia and Pennsylvania and particularly the citizens of Ohio and Marshall Counties, West Virginia, and Washington and Greene Counties, Pennsylvania; accordingly, for purposes of promoting that potential, as well as providing a vehicle or means whereby federal assistance may be enlisted for the protection of citizens of her neighboring State of West Virginia from the flooding of Wheeling Creek, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania joins with the State of West Virginia in negotiating and ratifying this compact; now therefore,

Post, p. 588.

this Act unless (A) it conforms to such definition and standard, and (B) its label bears the name of the food specified in the definition and standard and, insofar as may be required by such regulations, the common names of optional ingredients (other than spices, flavoring, and coloring) present in such food; “(8) if it purports to be or is represented as a food for which a standard or standards of fill of container have been prescribed by regulations of the Secretary under section 7 of this Act, and it falls below the standard of fill of container applicable thereto, unless its label bears, in such manner and form as such regulations specify, a statement that it falls below such standard; “(9) if it is not subject to the provisions of subparagraph (7), unless its label bears (A) the common or usual name of the food, if any there be, and (B) in case it is fabricated from two or more ingredients, the common or usual name of each such ingredient; except that spices, flavorings, and colorings may, when authorized by the Secretary, be designated as spices, flavorings, and colorings without naming each: Provided, That, to the extent that compliance with the requirements of clause (B) of this subparagraph (9) is impracticable, or results in deception or 81 Stat. 587unfair competition, exemptions shall be established by regulations promulgated by the Secretary; “(10) If it purports to be or is represented for special dietary uses, unless its label bears such information concerning its vitamin, mineral, and other dietary properties as the Secretary, after consultation with the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, determines to be, and by regulations prescribes as, necessary in order fully to inform purchasers as to its value for such uses; “(11) If it bears or contains any artificial flavoring, artificial coloring, or chemical preservative, unless it bears labeling stating that fact: Provided, That, to the extent that compliance with the requirements of this subparagraph (11) is impracticable, exemptions shall be established by regulations promulgated by the Secretary; or “(12) If it fails to bear, directly thereon or on its container, as the Secretary may by regulations prescribe, the inspection legend and, unrestricted by any of the foregoing, such other information as the Secretary may require in such regulations to assure that it will not have false or misleading labeling and that the public will be informed of the manner of handling required to maintain the article in a wholesome condition. “(o) The term ‘label’ means a display of written, printed, or graphic

Sec. 2. Meat and meat food products are an important source of the Nation’s total supply of food. They are consumed throughout the Nation and the major portion thereof moves in interstate or foreign commerce. It is essential in the public interest that the health and welfare of consumers be protected by assuring that meat and meat food products distributed to them are wholesome, not adulterated, and properly marked, labeled, and packaged. Unwholesome, adulterated, or misbranded meat or meat food products impair the effective regulation of meat and meat food products in interstate or foreign commerce, are injurious to the public welfare, destroy markets for wholesome, not adulterated, and properly labeled and packaged meat and meat food products, and result in sundry losses to livestock producers and processors of meat and meat food products, as well as injury to consumers. The unwholesome, adulterated, mislabeled, or deceptively 81 Stat. 588packaged articles can be sold at lower prices and compete unfairly with the wholesome, not adulterated, and properly labeled and packaged articles, to the detriment of consumers and the public generally. It is hereby found that all articles and animals which are regulated under this Act are either in interstate or foreign commerce or substantially affect such commerce, and that regulation by the Secretary and cooperation by the States and other jurisdictions as contemplated by this Act are appropriate to prevent and eliminate burdens upon such commerce, to effectively regulate such commerce, and to protect the health and welfare of consumers.
Sec. 3. Said Act is hereby further amended by— (a)

Ante, p. 584.

 deleting the phrase “interstate or foreign” wherever it appears in sections 3 through 23 of title I of said Act; and (b) deleting in section 3 of said Act (21 U.S.C. 71) the phrase “the Secretary of Agriculture, at his discretion, may” and inserting in lieu thereof the words “the Secretary shall” and deleting the words “of Agriculture” wherever they appear after the word “Secretary” thereafter in title I of the Act.
Sec. 4.

34 Stat. 1260.

Section 4 of said Act (21 U.S.C. 72) is hereby amended by deleting the phrases “for human consumption” and “for transportation or sale”, and by inserting after the word “commerce” the phrase “which are capable of use as human food”.
Sec. 5. Section 5 of said Act (21 U.S.C. 73) is hereby amended by adding at the end thereof the following: “The Secretary may limit the entry of carcasses, parts of carcasses, meat and meat food products, and other materials into any establishment at which inspection under this title is maintained, under such conditions as he may prescribe to assure that allowing the entry of such articles into such inspected establishments will be consistent with the purposes of this Act.”
Sec. 6.

Federal inspection labels.

Standards.

Section 7 of said Act (21 U.S.C. 75) is hereby amended by— (a) deleting the provisions thereof reading as follows: “, and no such meat or meat food products shall be sold or offered for sale by any person, firm, or corporation in interstate or foreign commerce under any false or deceptive name; but established trade name or names which are usual to such products and which are not false and deceptive and which shall lie approved by the Secretary are permitted”; (c) designating the remaining provisions as paragraph (a); and (d) adding at the end of said section the following provisions as paragraphs (b) through (e), respectively: “(b) All carcasses, parts of carcasses, meat and meat food products inspected at any establishment under the authority of this title and found to be not adulterated, shall at the time they leave the establishment bear, in distinctly legible form, directly thereon or on their containers, as the Secretary may require, the information

Ante, p. 586.

required under paragraph (n) of section 1 of this Act. “(c) The Secretary, whenever he determines such action is necessary for the protection of the public, may prescribe: (1) the styles and sizes of type to be used with respect to material required to be incorporated in labeling to avoid false or misleading labeling in marketing and labeling any articles or animals subject to this title or title II of this

There shall also be consultation between the Secretary and an appropriate advisory committee provided for in section 301 of this Act, prior to the issuance of such standards under this Act,

Post, p. 595.

 to avoid, insofar as feasible, inconsistency between Federal and State standards. “(d) No article subject to this title shall be sold or offered for sale by any person, firm, or corporation, in commerce, under any name or other marking or labeling which is false or misleading, or in any container of a misleading form or size, but established trade names and other marking and labeling and containers which are not false or misleading and which are approved by the Secretary are permitted. “(e) If the Secretary has reason to believe that any marking or

AN ACT To prohibit age discrimination in employment.

December 15, 1967

[S. 830]

 Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967.
That this Act may be cited as the “Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967”.
statement of findings and purpose Sec. 2. (a) The Congress hereby finds and declares that— (1) in the face of rising productivity and affluence, older workers find themselves disadvantaged in their efforts to retain employment, and especially to regain employment when displaced from jobs; (2) the setting of arbitrary age limits regardless of potential for job performance has become a common practice, and certain otherwise desirable practices may work to the disadvantage of older persons; (3) the incidence of unemployment, especially long-term unemployment with resultant deterioration of skill, morale, and employer acceptability is, relative to the younger ages, high among older workers; their numbers are great and growing; and their employment problems grave; (4) the existence in industries affecting commerce, of arbitrary discrimination in employment because of age, burdens commerce and the free flow of goods in commerce. (b) It is therefore the purpose of this Act to promote employment of older persons based on their ability rather than age; to prohibit arbitrary age discrimination in employment; to help employers and workers find ways of meeting problems arising from the impact of age on employment.
education and research program Sec. 3. (a) The Secretary of Labor shall undertake studies and provide information to labor unions, management, and the general public concerning the needs and abilities of older workers, and their potentials for continued employment and contribution to the economy. In order to achieve the purposes of this Act, the Secretary of Labor shall carry on a continuing program of education and information, under which he may, among other measures— (1) undertake research, and promote research, with a view to reducing barriers to the employment of older persons, and the promotion of measures for utilizing their skills; (2) publish and otherwise make available to employers, professional societies, the various media of communication, and other interested persons the findings of studies and other materials for the promotion of employment; (3) foster through the public employment service system and through cooperative effort the development of facilities of public and private agencies for expanding the opportunities and potentials of older persons; (4) sponsor and assist State and community informational and educational programs. (b)

Recommendation to Congress.

 Not later than six months after the effective date of this Act, the Secretary shall recommend to the Congress any measures he may deem desirable to change the lower or upper age limits set forth in section 12.
81 Stat. 603
prohibition of age discrimination Sec. 4. (a) It shall be unlawful for an employer— (1) to fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual or otherwise discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual’s age; (2) to limit, segregate, or classify his employees in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee, because of such individual’s age; or (3) to reduce the wage rate of any employee in order to comply with this Act. (b) It shall be unlawful for an employment agency to fail or refuse to refer for employment, or otherwise to discriminate against, any individual because of such individual’s age, or to classify or refer for employment any individual on the basis of such individual’s age. (c) It shall be unlawful for a labor organization— (1) to exclude or to expel from its membership, or otherwise to discriminate against, any individual because of his age; (2) to limit, segregate, or classify its membership, or to classify or fail or refuse to refer for employment any individual, in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities, or would limit such employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect his status as an employee or as an applicant for employment, because of such individual’s age; (3) to cause or attempt to cause an employer to discriminate against an individual in violation of this section. (d) It shall be unlawful for an employer to discriminate against any of his employees or applicants for employment, for an employment agency to discriminate against any individual, or for a labor organization to discriminate against any member thereof or applicant for membership, because such individual, member or applicant for membership has opposed any practice made unlawful by this section, or because such individual, member or applicant for membership has made a charge, testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding, or litigation under this Act. (e) It shall be unlawful for an employer, labor organization, or employment agency to print or publish, or cause to be printed or published, any notice or advertisement relating to employment by such an employer or membership in or any classification or referral for employment by such a labor organization, or relating to any classification or referral for employment by such an employment agency, indicating any preference, limitation, specification, or discrimination, based on age. (f) It shall not be unlawful for an employer, employment agency, or labor organization— (1) to take any action otherwise prohibited under subsections (a), (b), (c), or (e) of this section where age is a bona fide occupational qualification reasonably necessary to the normal operation of the particular business, or where the differentiation is based on reasonable factors other than age; (2) to observe the terms of a bona fide seniority system or any bona fide employee benefit plan such as a retirement, pension, or insurance plan, which is not a subterfuge to evade the purposes of this Act, except that no such employee benefit plan shall excuse the failure to hire any individual; or 81 Stat. 604 (3) to discharge or otherwise discipline an individual for good cause.

Pay under this section shall be paid in equal annual or semiannual installments, as determined by the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, as appropriate, in each additional year covered by an agreement to remain on active duty. However, in meritorious cases, the pay may be paid in fewer installments if the Secretary determines it to be in the best interest of the officer. “(b) An officer who does not serve on active duty for the entire period for which he was paid under this section shall refund that percentage of the payment that the unserved part of the period is of the total period for which the payment was made. “(c) The Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Health, Education,

 and Welfare shall submit separate written reports each year to the Committees on Armed Services of the Senate and House of Representatives regarding the operation of the special pay program authorized by subsection (a) of this section and, whenever such special pay program is to be continued in operation, such report shall include the justification for continuing such program. Reports under this section shall be made on a calendar year basis, beginning with the calendar year 1968, and the reports for any calendar year shall be submitted not later than April 1 of the succeeding calendar year.”

77 Stat. 213.

 (a) Title 10, United States Code, is amended as follows: (1) The text of section 1401a of title 10, United States Code, is amended to read as follows: “(a) Unless otherwise specifically provided by law, the retired pay or retainer pay of a member or former member of an armed force may not be recomputed to reflect any increase in the rates of basic pay for members of the armed forces. In this section, ‘Index’ means the Consumer Price Index (all items, United States city average) published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. “(b)

Consumer Price Index, determination of increase.

 The Secretary of Defense shall determine monthly the percent by which the index has increased over that used as the basis (base index) for the most recent adjustment of retired pay and retainer pay under this subsection. If the Secretary determines that, for three consecutive months, the amount of the increase is at least 3 percent over the base index, the retired pay and retainer pay of members and former members of the armed forces who became entitled to that pay before the first day of the third calendar month beginning after the end of those three months shall, except as provided in subsection (c), be increased, effective on that day, by the highest percent of increase in the index during those months, adjusted to the nearest one-tenth of 1 percent. “(c) Notwithstanding subsection (b), if a member or former member of an armed force becomes entitled to retired pay or retainer pay based on rates of monthly basic pay prescribed by section 203 of title

Ante, pp. 649, 650.

37 that became effective after the last day of the month of the base index, his retired pay or retainer pay shall be increased on the effective date of the next adjustment of retired pay and retainer pay under subsection (b) only by the percent (adjusted to the nearest one-tenth of 1 percent) that the new base index exceeds the index for the calendar month immediately before that in which the rates of monthly basic pay on which his retired pay or retainer pay is based became effective. “(d) If a member or former member of an armed force becomes entitled to retired pay or retainer pay on or after the effective date of an adjustment or retired pay and retainer pay under subsection (b) but before the effective date of the next increase in the rates of monthly basic pay prescribed by section 203 of title 37, his retired pay or retainer pay shall be increased, effective on the date he becomes entitled to that pay, by the percent (adjusted to the nearest one-tenth of 1 percent) that the base index exceeds the index for the calendar month immediately before that in which the rates of monthly basic pay on which his retired pay or retainer pay is based became effective. “(e) Notwithstanding subsections (c) and (d), the adjusted retired pay or retainer pay of a member or former member of an armed force retired on or after October 1, 1967, may not be less than it would have been had he become entitled to retired pay or retainer pay based on the same pay grade, years of service for pay, years of service for retired or retainer pay purposes, and percent of disability, if any, on the day before the effective date of the rates of monthly basic pay on which his retired pay or retainer pay is based.” 81 Stat. 653 (2) Section 1402 is amended—

Retired pay, recomputation.

 (A) by inserting “increased by any applicable adjustments in that pay under section 1401a of this title after he initially became entitled to that pay,” after “retired,” in subsection (d); and

 (B) by adding the following subsection: “(e) Notwithstanding subsection (a), a member covered by that

77 Stat. 214.

 subsection may elect, upon his release from active duty, to have his retired pay or retainer pay— “(1) computed according to the formula set forth in subsection (a) but using the rate of basic pay under which his retired pay or retainer pay was computed when he entered on active duty; and “(2) increased by any applicable adjustments in that pay under section 1401a of this title after he initially became entitled to that pay.” (3) The first sentence of section 1436(a) is amended by inserting

70A Stat. 110;

75 Stat. 811.

 “but without regard to any increase in that pay to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index” after “that pay” and before the period. (b) Notwithstanding section 1401a(d) of title 10, United States Code, a person who is a member or former member of an armed force

Ante, p. 652.

 on the date of enactment of this Act and who initially became, or hereafter initially becomes, entitled to retired pay or retainer pay after November 30, 1966, but before the effective date of the next increase after July 1, 1966, in the rates of monthly basic pay prescribed by section 203 of title 37, United States Code, is entitled to

 have his retired pay or retainer pay increased by 3.7 percent, effective as of the date of his entitlement to that pay.

70A Stat. 232.

 therein to read as follows: “Compute at rates applicable on date of retirement, or if the member has served as sergeant major of the Army, compute at the highest basic pay applicable to him while he so served, if such basic pay is greater.” (3) Clause (2) of section 6326(c) is amended to read as follows:

Retired pay, computation.

70A Stat. 557.

 Section 8991 is amended by amending footnote 3 of the table therein to read as follows: “Compute at rates applicable on date of retirement, or if the member has served as chief master sergeant of the Air Force, compute at the highest basic pay applicable to him while he so served, if such basic pay is greater.”

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of law for the 1988 and 1969 crop years, the Secretary, if he determines that it will not impair the effective operation of the peanut marketing quota or price-support program, (1) may permit the owner and operator of any farm for which a peanut acreage allotment is established under this Act to sell or lease all or any part or the right to all or any part of such allotment to any other owner or operator of a farm in the same county for transfer to such farm; and (2) may permit the owner of a farm to transfer all or any part of such allotment to any other farm owned or controlled by him. “(b) Transfers under this section shall be subject to the following conditions: (1) no allotment shall be transferred to a farm in another county; (2) no transfer of an allotment from a farm subject to a mortgage or other lien shall be permitted unless the transfer is agreed to by the lienholders; (3) no sale of a farm allotment from a farm shall be permitted if any sale of allotment to the same farm has been made within the three immediately preceding crop years; (4) no transfer of allotment shall be effective until a record thereof is filed with the county committee of the county in which such transfer is made and such committee determines that the transfer complies with the provisions of this section; and (5) if the normal yield established by the county committee for the farm to which the allotment is transferred does not exceed the normal yield established by the county committee for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by more than 10 per centum, the lease or sale and transfer shall be approved acre for acre, but if the normal yield for the farm to which the allotment is transferred exceeds the normal yield for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by more than 10 per centum, the county committee shall make a downward adjustment in the amount of the acreage allotment transferred by multiplying the normal yield established for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by the acreage being transferred and dividing the result by the normal yield established for the farm to which the allotment is transferred: Provided, That in the event an allotment is transferred to a farm which at the time of such transfer is not irrigated, but within five years subsequent to such transfer is placed under irrigation, the Secretary shall also make an annual downward adjustment in the allotment so transferred by multiplying the normal yield established for the farm from which the allotment is transferred by the acreage being transferred and dividing the result by the actual yield for the previous year, adjusted for abnormal weather conditions, on the farm to which the allotment is transferred: Provided further,That, notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, the adjustment made in any peanut allotment because of the transfer to a higher producing farm shall not reduce or increase the size of any future National or State allotment and an acreage equal to the total of all such adjustments shall not be allotted to any other farms. “(c) The transfer of an allotment shall have the effect of transferring also the acreage history and marketing quota attributable to such allotment and if the transfer is made prior to the determination of the allotment for any year the transfer shall include the right 81 Stat. 659of the owner or operator to have an allotment determined for the farm for such year: Provided, That in the case of a transfer by lease the amount of the allotment shall be considered, for the purpose of determining allotments after the expiration or the lease, to have been planted on the farm from which such allotment is transferred. “(d) The land in the farm from which the entire peanut allotment has been transferred shall not be eligible for a new farm peanut allotment during the five years following the year in which such transfer is made. “(e) Any lease may be made for such term of years not to exceed five as the parties thereto agree, and on such other terms and conditions except as otherwise provided in this section as the parties thereto agree. “(f) The lease of any part of a peanut acreage allotment determined for a farm shall not affect the allotment for the farm from which such allotment is transferred or the farm to which it is transferred, except with respect to the crop year or years specified in the lease. The amount of the acreage allotment which is leased from a farm shall be considered for purposes of determining future allotments to have been planted to peanuts on the farm from which such allotment is leased and the production pursuant to the lease shall not be taken into account in establishing allotments for subsequent years for the farm to which such allotment is leased. The lessor shall be considered to have been engaged in the production of peanuts for purposes of eligibility to vote in the referendum. “(g) The Secretary shall prescribe regulations for the administration of this section which may include reasonable limitation on the size of the resulting allotments on farms to which transfers are made and such other terms and conditions as he deems necessary, but the total peanut allotment transferred to any farm by sale or lease shall not exceed fifty acres. “(h) If the sale or transfer occurs during a period in which the farm is covered by a conservation reserve contract, cropland conversion agreement, or other similar land utilization agreement the rates of payment provided for in the contract or agreement of the farm from which the transfer is made shall be subject to an appropriate adjustment, but no adjustment shall be made in the contract or agreement of the farm to which the transfer is made.”

income) is amended by adding at the end thereof the following new subsection: “(e) Special Deduction and Income Account.— In the case of taxable years beginning after December 31, 1966, of a company which writes mortgage guaranty insurance— “(1) Additional deduction.— There shall be allowed as a deduction for the taxable year, if bonds are purchased as required by paragraph (2), the sum of— “(A) an amount representing the amount required by State law or regulation to be set aside in a reserve for mortgage guaranty insurance losses resulting from adverse economic cycles; and “(B) an amount representing the aggregate of amounts so set aside in such reserve for the 8 preceding taxable years to the extent such amounts were not deducted under this paragraph in such preceding taxable years, except that the deduction allowable for the taxable year under this paragraph shall not exceed the taxable income for the taxable year computed without regard to this paragraph or to any carryback of a net operating loss. For purposes of this paragraph, the amount required by State law or regulation to be so set aside in any taxable year shall not exceed 50 percent of premiums earned on insurance contracts (as defined in subsection (b)(4)) with respect to mortgage guaranty insurance for such year.

If a deduction would be allowed but for the fact that tax and loss bonds were not timely purchased, such deduction shall be allowed to the extent such purchases are made within a reasonable time, as determined by the Secretary or his delegate, if all interest and penalties, computed as if this sentence did not apply, are paid. “(3) Mortgage guaranty account.— Each company which writes mortgage guaranty insurance shall, for purposes of this part, establish and maintain a mortgage guaranty account. “(4) Additions to account.— There shall be added to the mortgage guaranty account for each taxable year an amount equal to the amount allowed as a deduction for the taxable year under paragraph (1). “(5) Subtractions from account and inclusion in gross income.— After applying paragraph (4), there shall be subtracted for the taxable year from the mortgage guaranty account and included in gross income— 81 Stat. 778 “(A) the amount (if any) remaining which was added to the account for the tenth preceding taxable year, and “(B) the excess (if any) of the aggregate amount in the mortgage guaranty account over the aggregate amount in the reserve referred to in paragraph (1)(A). For purposes of determining such excess, the aggregate amount in the mortgage guaranty account shall be determined after applying subparagraph (A), and the aggregate amount in the reserve referred to in paragraph (1)(A) shall be determined by disregarding any amounts remaining in such reserve added for taxable years beginning before January 1, 1967, “(C) an amount (if any) equal to the net operating loss for the taxable year computed without regard to this subparagraph, and “(D) any amount improperly subtracted from the account under subparagraph (A), (B), or (C) to the extent that tax and loss bonds were redeemed with respect to such amount. If a company liquidates or otherwise terminates its mortgage guaranty insurance business and does not transfer or distribute such business in an acquisition of assets referred to in section

68A Stat. 124.

381(a), the entire amount remaining in such account shall be subtracted. Except in the case where a company transfers or distributes its mortgage guaranty insurance in an acquisition of assets referred to in section 381(a), if the company is not subject

68A Stat. 264; 80 Stat. 1562.

to the tax imposed by section 831 for any taxable year, the entire amount in the account at the close of the preceding taxable year shall be subtracted from the account in such preceding taxable year.” (d)

21 of this Act, as are necessary to permit persons to comply with section 832(e) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954. Tax and loss bonds shall 81 Stat. 779be issued in such amounts and on such terms and conditions as required by section 832(e) of such Code and as the Secretary of the

Ante, p. 777.

Treasury shall prescribe. With respect to any taxable year in which amounts are subtracted from the mortgage guaranty account referred to in section 832(e)(3) of such Code, an amount of tax and loss bonds which was purchased under section 832(e)(2) of such Code with respect to the amount so subtracted shall be redeemed, and to the extent necessary shall be applied to pay any taxes due as a result of the inclusion under section 82(b)(1)(E) of such Code of amounts in gross income. In addition, tax and loss bonds may be redeemed as prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury.”
(g) (1) In the case of taxable years beginning before 1967, a company shall treat additions to a reserve, required by State law or regulations for mortgage guaranty insurance losses resulting from adverse economic cycles, as unearned premiums for purposes of section 832(b)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, but the amount so treated as unearned premiums in a taxable year shall not exceed 50 percent of premiums earned on insurance contracts (as defined in section 832(b)(4) of such Code), determined without regard to amounts

added to the reserve, with respect to mortgage guaranty insurance for such year.
