The Corporation may also approve any application under this paragraph if it finds that the act or transaction would not be injurious to the operation of any subsidiary insured institution in the light of its financial condition and prospects. “Applications filed with the Corporation pursuant to this subsection shall be in such form and contain such information as the Corporation may prescribe. “(4) If a State authority or any other agency of the United States, having jurisdiction of any act or transaction within the scope of paragraph (1) of this subsection, shall inform the Corporation, upon request by the Corporation for an opinion or otherwise, that State or Federal laws applicable thereto have not been complied with, the Corporation shall not approve such act or transaction until and unless the Corporation is satisfied that such compliance has been effected. “(5)

“§ 1861. Declaration of policy “It is the policy of the United States that all litigants in Federal courts entitled to trial by jury shall have the right to grand and petit juries selected at random from a fair cross section of the community in the district or division wherein the court convenes. It is further the policy of the United States that all citizens shall have the opportunity to be considered for service on grand and petit juries in the district courts of the United States, ant shall have an obligation to serve as jurors when summoned for that purpose.
“§ 1862. Discrimination prohibited “No citizen shall be excluded from service as a grand or petit juror in the district courts of the United States on account of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or economic status.
“§ 1863. Plan for random jury selection “(a) Each United States district court shall devise and place into operation a written plan for random selection of grand and petit jurors that shall be designed to achieve the objectives of sections 1861 and 1862 of this title, and that shall otherwise comply with the provisions of this title. The plan shall be placed into operation after approval by a reviewing panel consisting of the members of the judicial council of the circuit and either the chief judge of the district whose plan is being reviewed or such other active district judge of that district as the chief judge of the district may designate. The panel shall examine the plan to ascertain that it complies with the provisions of this title. If the reviewing panel finds that the plan does not comply, the panel shall state the particulars in which the plan fails to comp y and direct the district court to present within a reasonable time an alternative plan remedying the defect or defects. Separate plans may be adopted for each division or combination of divisions within a judicial district. The district court may modify a plan at any time and it shall modify the plan when so directed by the reviewing panel. The district court shall promptly notify the panel, the Administrative Office of the United States Courts, and the Attorney General of the United States, of the initial adoption and future modifications of the plan by filing copies therewith. Modifications of the plan made at the instance of the district court shall become effective after approval by the

panel. Each district court shall submit a report on the jury selection process within its jurisdiction to the Administrative Office of the United States Courts in such form and at such times as the Judicial Conference of the United States may specify. The Judicial Conference of the United States may. from time to time, adopt rules and regulations governing the provisions and the operation of the plans formulated under this title. “(b)

Plan provisions.

 Among other things, such plan shall— “(1) either establish a jury commission, or authorize the clerk of the court, to manage the jury selection process. If the plan establishes a jury commission, the district court shall appoint one citizen to serve with the clerk of the court as the jury commission: Provided, however, That the plan for the District of Columbia may establish a jury commission consisting of three citizens. The citizen jury commissioner shall not belong to the same political party as the clerk serving with him. The clerk or the jury com mission, as the case may be, shall act under the supervision and control of the chief judge of the district court or such other judge of the district court as the plan may provide. Each jury commissioner shall, during his tenure in office, reside in the judicial district

Each citizen jury 82 Stat. 55commissioner shall receive compensation to be fixed by the district court plan at a rate not to exceed $50 per day for each day necessarily employed in the performance of his duties, plus reimbursement for travel, subsistence, and other necessary expenses incurred by him in the performance of such duties. The Judicial Conference of the United States may establish standards for allowance of travel, subsistence, and other necessary expenses incurred by jury commissioners. “(2) specify whether the names of prospective jurors shall be

selected from the voter registration lists or the lists of actual voters of the political subdivisions within the district or division. The plan shall prescribe some other source or sources of names in addition to voter lists where necessary to foster the policy and protect the rights secured by sections 1861 and 1862 of this title. The plan for the District of Columbia may require the names

 of prospective jurors to be selected from the city directory rather than from voter lists. The plans for the districts of Puerto Rico and the Canal Zone may prescribe some other source or sources of names of prospective jurors in lieu of voter lists, the use of which shall be consistent with the policies declared and rights secured by sections 1861 and 1862 of this title. “(3) specify detailed procedures to be followed by the jury

Name selection procedures.

commission or clerk in selecting names from the sources specified in paragraph (2) of this subsection. These procedures shall be designed to ensure the random selection of a fair cross section of the persons residing in the community in the district or division wherein the court convenes. They shall ensure that names of persons residing in each of the counties, parishes, or similar political subdivisions within the judicial district or division are placed in a master jury wheel; and shall ensure that each county, parish, or similar political subdivision within the district or division is substantially proportionally represented in the master jury wheel for that judicial district, division, or combination of divisions. For the purposes of determining proportional representation in the master jury wheel, either the number of actual voters at the last general election in each county, parish, or similar political subdivision, or the number of registered voters if registration of voters is uniformly required throughout the district or division, may be used. “(4) provide for a master jury wheel (or a device similar in

Master jury wheel.

purpose and function) into which the names of those randomly selected shall be placed. The plan shall fix a minimum number of names to be placed initially in the master jury wheel, which shall be at least one-half of 1 per centum of the total number of persons on the lists used as a source of names for the district or division; but if this number of names is believed to be cumbersome and unnecessary, the plan may fix a smaller number of names to be placed in the master wheel, but in no event less than one thousand. The chief judge of the district court, or such other district court judge as the plan may provide, may order additional names to be placed in the master jury wheel from time to time as necessary. The plan shall provide for periodic emptying and refilling of the master jury wheel at specified times. “(5) specify those groups of persons or occupational classes

Excused or exempted groups.

whose members shall, on individual request therefor, be excused from jury service. Such groups or classes shall be excused only if the district court finds, and the plan states, that jury service by such class or group would entail undue hardship or extreme incon- 82 Stat. 56venience to the members thereof, and excuse of members thereof would not be inconsistent with sections 1861 and 1862 of this title. “(6) specify those groups of persons or occupational classes whose members shall be barred from jury service on the ground that they are exempt. Such groups or classes shall be exempt only if the district court finds, and the plan states, that their exemption is in the public interest and would not be inconsistent with sections 1861 and 1862 of this title. The plan shall provide for exemption of the following persons: (i) members in active service in the Armed Forces of the United States; (ii) members of the fire or police departments of any State, district, territory, possession, or subdivision thereof; (iii) public officers in the executive, legislative, or judicial branches of the Government of the United States, or any State, district, territory, or possession or subdivision thereof, who are actively engaged in the performance of official duties. “(7) fix the distance, either in miles or in travel time, from each place of holding court beyond which prospective jurors residing shall, on individual request therefor, be excused from jury service on the ground of undue hardship in traveling to the place where court is held. “(8)

Names disclosure.

 fix the time when the names drawn from the qualified jury wheel shall be disclosed to parties and to the public. If the plan permits these names to be made public, it may nevertheless permit the chief judge of the district court, or such other district court judge as the plan may provide, to keep these names confidential in any case where the interests of justice so require. “(9) specify the procedures to be followed by the clerk or jury commission in assigning persons whose names have been drawn from the qualified jury wheel to grand and petit jury panels. “(c)

Plan transmittal.

 The initial plan shall be devised by each district court and transmitted to the reviewing panel specified in subsection (a) of this section within one hundred and twenty days of the date of enactment of the Jury Selection and Service Act of 1968. The panel shall approve or direct the modification of each plan so submitted within sixty days

Effective date.

thereafter. Each plan or modification made at the direction of the panel shall become effective after approval at such time thereafter as the panel directs, in no event to exceed ninety days from the date of approval. Modifications made at the instance of the district court under subsection (a) of this section shall be effective at such time thereafter as the panel directs, in no event to exceed ninety days from the date of modification. “(d)

Voter registration lists and records, availability.

 State, local, and Federal officials having custody, possession, or control of voter registration lists, lists of actual voters, or other appropriate records shall make such lists and records available to the jury commission or clerks for inspection, reproduction, and copying at all reasonable times as the commission or clerk may deem necessary and proper for the performance of duties under this title. The district courts shall have jurisdiction upon application by the Attorney Gen-82 Stat. 57eral of the United States to compel compliance with this subsection by appropriate process.
“§ 1864. Drawing of names from the master jury wheel; completion of juror qualification form “(a) From time to time as directed by the district court, the clerk or a district judge shall publicly draw at random from the master jury wheel the names of as many persons as may be required for jury service. The clerk or jury commission shall prepare an alphabetical list of the names drawn, which list shall not be disclosed to any person except pursuant to the district court plan and to sections 1867 and 1868 of this title. The clerk or jury commission shall mail to every person whose name is drawn from the master wheel a juror qualification form accompanied by instructions to fill out and return the form, duly signed and sworn, to the clerk or jury commission by mail within ten days. If the person is unable to fill out the form, another shall do it for him, and shall indicate that he has done so and the reason therefor. In any case in which it appears that there is an omission, ambiguity, or error in a form, the clerk or jury commission shall return the form with instructions to the person to make such additions or corrections as may be necessary and to return the form to the clerk or jury commission within ten days. Any person who fails to return a completed juror qualification form as instructed may be summoned by the clerk or jury commission forthwith to appear before the clerk or jury commission to fill out a juror qualification form. A person summoned to appear because of failure to return a juror qualification form as instructed who personally appears and executes a juror qualification form before the clerk or jury commission may, at the discretion of the district court, except where his prior failure to execute and mail such form was willful, be entitled to receive for such appearance the same fees and travel allowances paid to jurors under section 1871 of this title. At the time of his appearance for jury service, any person may be required to fill out another juror qualification form in the presence of the jury commission or the clerk or the court, at which time, in such cases as it appears warranted, the person may be questioned, but only with regard to his responses to questions contained on the form. Any information thus acquired by the clerk or jury commission may be noted on the juror qualification form and transmitted to the chief judge or such district court judge as the plan may provide. “(b) Any person summoned pursuant to subsection (a) of this section who fails to appear as directed shall be ordered y the district court forthwith to appear and show cause for his failure to comply with the summons. Any person who fails to appear pursuant to such order or who fails to show good cause for noncompliance with the summons may be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned not more than three days, or both. Any person who willfully misrepresents a material fact on a juror qualification form for the purpose of avoiding or securing service as a juror may be fined not more than $100 or imprisoned

“§ 1865. Qualifications for jury service “(a) The chief judge of the district court, or such other district court judge as the plan may provide, on his initiative or upon recommendation of the clerk or jury commission, shall determine solely on the basis of information provided on the juror qualification form and other competent evidence whether a person is unqualified for, or exempt, or to be excused from jury service. The clerk shall enter such determination in the space provided on the juror qualification form and the alphabetical list of names drawn from the master jury wheel. If a person did not appear in response to a summons, such fact shall be noted on said list. “(b) In making such determination the chief judge of the district court, or such other district court judge as the plan may provide, shall deem any person qualified to serve on grand and petit juries in the

Selection and summoning of jury panels “(a) The jury commission, or in the absence thereof the clerk, shall maintain a qualified jury wheel and shall place in such wheel names of all persons drawn from the master jury wheel who are determined to be qualified as jurors and not exempt or excused pursuant to the district court plan. From time to time, the jury commission or the clerk shall publicly draw at random from the qualified jury wheel such number of names of persons as may be required for assignment to grand and petit jury panels. The jury commission or the clerk shall prepare a separate list of names of persons assigned to each grand and petit jury panel. “(b)

When the court orders a grand or petit jury to be drawn the clerk or jury commission shall issue summonses for the required number of jurors and deliver them to the marshal for service.

“Each person drawn for jury service may be served personally or by registered or certified mail addressed to such person at his usual residence or business address.

“Such service shall be made by the marshal who shall attach to his return the addressee’s receipt for the registered or certified summons where service is made by mail.

 “(c) Except as provided in section 1865 of this title or in any jury selection plan provision adopted pursuant to paragraph (5), (6), or (7) of section 1863(b) of this title, no person or class of persons shall be disqualified, excluded, excused, or exempt from service as jurors: Provided, That any person summoned for jury service may be (1) excused by the court, upon a showing of undue hardship or extreme inconvenience, for such period as the court deems necessary, at the conclusion of which such person shall be summoned again for jury service under subsections (b) and (c) of this section, or (2) excluded by the 82 Stat. 59court on the ground that such person may be unable to render impartial jury service or that his service as a juror would be likely to disrupt the proceedings, or (3) excluded upon peremptory challenge as provided by law, or (4) excluded pursuant to the procedure specified by law upon a challenge by any party for good cause shown, or (5) excluded upon determination by the court that his service as a juror would be likely to threaten the secrecy of the proceedings, or otherwise adversely affect the integrity of jury deliberations.

The number of persons excluded under clause (5) of this subsection shall not exceed one per centum of the number of persons who return executed jury qualification forms during the period, specified in the plan, between two consecutive fillings of the master jury wheel. The names of persons excluded under clause (5) of this subsection, together with detailed explanations for the exclusions, shall be forwarded immediately to the judicial council of the circuit, which shall have the power to make any appropriate order, prospective or retroactive, to redress any misapplication of clause (5) of this subsection, but otherwise exclusions effectuated under such clause shall not be subject to challenge under the provisions of this title. Any person excluded from a particular jury under clause (2), (3), or (4) or this subsection shall be eligible to sit on another jury if the basis for his initial exclusion would not be relevant to his ability to serve on such other jury. “(d) Whenever a person is disqualified, excused, exempt, or excluded from jury service, the jury commission or clerk shall note in the space provided on his juror qualification form or on the juror’s card drawn from the qualified jury wheel the specific reason therefor. “(e) In any two-year period, no person shall be required to (1) serve or attend court for prospective service as a petit juror for a total of more than thirty days, except when necessary to complete service in a particular case, or (2) serve on more than one grand jury, or (3) serve as both a grand and petit juror. “(f) When there is an unanticipated shortage of available petit jurors drawn from the qualified jury wheel, the court may require the marshal to summon a sufficient number of petit jurors selected at random from the voter registration lists, lists of actual voters, or other lists specified in the plan, in a manner ordered by the court consistent with sections 1861 and 1862 of this title. “(g) Any person summoned for jury service who fails to appear as directed shall be ordered by the district court to appear forthwith

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

Agricultural Fair Practices Act of 1967.

be known as the Agricultural Fair Practices Act of 1967.
legislative findings and declaration of policy Sec. 2.

Agricultural products are produced in the United States by many individual farmers and ranchers scattered throughout the various States of the Nation. Such products in fresh or processed form move in large part in the channels of interstate and foreign commerce, and such products which do not move in these channels directly burden or affect interstate commerce. The efficient production and marketing of agricultural products by farmers and ranchers is of vital concern to their welfare and to the general economy of the Nation. Because agricultural products are produced by numerous individual farmers, the marketing and bargaining position of individual farmers will be adversely affected unless they are free to join together voluntarily in cooperative organizations as authorized by law. Interference with this right is contrary to the public interest and adversely affects the free and orderly flow of goods in interstate and foreign commerce.

82 Stat. 94

It is, therefore, declared to be the policy of Congress and the purpose of this Act to establish standards of fair practices required of handlers in their dealings in agricultural products.
definitions Sec. 3. When used in this Act— (a) The term “handler” means any person engaged in the business or practice of (1) acquiring agricultural products from producers or associations of producers for processing or sale; or (2) grading, packaging, handling, storing, or processing agricultural products received from producers or associations of producers; or (3) contracting or negotiating contracts or other arrangements, written or oral, with or on behalf of producers or associations of producers with respect to the production or marketing of any agricultural product; or (4) acting as an agent or broker for a handler in the performance of any function or act specified in clause (1), (2), or (3) of this paragraph. (b) The term “producer” means a person engaged in the production of agricultural products as a farmer, planter, rancher, dairyman, fruit, vegetable, or nut grower. (c) The term “association of producers” means any association of producers of agricultural products engaged in marketing, bargaining, shipping, or processing as defined in section 15(a) of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1929, as amended (49 Stat. 317; 12 U.S.C. 1141j (a)), or in section 1 of the Act entitled “An Act to authorize association of producers of agricultural products”, approved February 18, 1922 (42 Stat. 388; 7 U.S.C. 291). (d) The term “person” includes individuals, partnerships, corporations, and associations. (e) The term “agricultural products” shall not include cotton or tobacco or their products.
prohibited practices Sec. 4. It shall be unlawful for any handler knowingly to engage or permit any employee or agent to engage in the following practices: (a) To coerce any producer in the exercise of his right to join and belong to or to refrain from joining or belonging to an association of producers, or to refuse to deal with any producer because of the exercise of his right to join and belong to such an association; or (b) To discriminate against any producer with respect to price, quantity, quality, or other terms of purchase, acquisition, or other handling of agricultural products because of his membership in or contract with an association of producers; or (c) To coerce or intimidate any producer to enter into, maintain, breach, cancel, or terminate a membership agreement or marketing contract with an association of producers or a contract with a handler; or (d) To pay or loan money, give any thing of value, or offer any other inducement or reward to a. producer for refusing to or ceasing to belong to an association of producers; or (e) To make false reports about the finances, management, or activities of associations of producers or handlers; or (f) To conspire, combine, agree, or arrange with any other person to do, or aid or abet the doing of, any act made unlawful by this Act.
82 Stat. 95
disclaimer of intention to prohibit normal dealing Sec. 5. Nothing in this Act shall prevent handlers and producers from selecting their customers and suppliers for any reason other than a producers membership in or contract with an association of producers, nor require a handler to deal with an association of producers.
enforcement Sec. 6. (a) Whenever any handler has engaged or there are reasonable grounds to believe that any handler is about to engage in any act or practice prohibited by section 4, a civil action for preventive relief, including an application for a permanent or temporary injunction, restraining order, or other order, may be instituted by the person aggrieved. In any action commenced pursuant hereto, the court, in its discretion, may allow the prevailing party a reasonable attorney’s fee as part of the costs. The court may provide that no restraining order or preliminary injunction shall issue except upon the giving of security by the applicant, in such stun as the court deems proper, for the payment of such costs and damages as may be incurred or suffered by any party who is found to have been wrongfully enjoined or restrained. (b) Whenever the Secretary of Agriculture, has reasonable cause to believe that any handler, or group of handlers, has engaged in any act or practice prohibited by section 4, he may request, the Attorney General to bring civil action in his behalf in the appropriate district court of the United States by filing with it a complaint (1) setting forth facts pertaining to such act or practice, and (2) requesting such preventive relief, including an application for a permanent or temporary injunction, restraining order, or other order against the handler, or handlers, responsible for such acts or practices.

separability Sec. 7. If any provision of this Act or the application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, the validity of the remainder of the Act and of the application of such provision to other persons and circumstances shall not be affected thereby.

That section 867(a)(article 67(a)) of title 10, United States Code, is amended to read us follows: “(a) (1) There is a United States Court of Military Appeals established under article I of the Constitution of the United States and located for administrative purposes only in the Department of Defense. The court consists of three judges appointed from civil life by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, for a term of fifteen years. The terms of office of all successors of the judges serving on the effective date of this Act shall expire fifteen years after the expiration of the terms for which their predecessors were appointed, but any judge appointed to fill a vacancy occurring prior to the expiration of the term for which his predecessor was appointed shall be appointed only for the unexpired term of his predecessor. Not more than two of the judges of the court may be appointed from the same political party, nor is any person eligible for appointment to the court who is not a member of the bar of a Federal court or the highest court of a State. Each judge is entitled to the same salary and travel allowances as are, and from time to time may be, provided for judges of the United States Court, of Appeals, and is eligible for reappointment. The President shall designate from time to time one of the judges to act as chief judge. The chief judge of the court shall have precedence and preside at any session which he attends. The other judges shall have precedence and preside according to the seniority of their commissions. Judges whose commissions hear the same date shall have precedence according to seniority in age. The court may prescribe its own rules of procedure and determine the number of judges required to constitute a quorum. A vacancy in the court does not impair the right of the remaining judges to exercise the powers of the court. “(2) Judges of the United States Court of Military Appeals may be removed by the President, upon notice and hearing, for neglect of duty or malfeasance in office, or for mental or physical disability, but for no other cause. “(3) If a judge of the United States Court of Military Appeals is temporarily unable to perform his duties because of illness or other disability, the President may designate a judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia to fill the office for the period of disability. “(4) Any judge of the United States Court of Military Appeals who is receiving retired pay may become a senior judge, may occupy offices in a Federal building, may be provided with a staff assistant whose, compensation shall not exceed the rate prescribed for GS–9 in the General Schedule under section 5332 of title 5, and, with his consent, may be called upon by the chief judge of said court to perform judicial duties with said court for any period or periods specified by such chief judge. A senior judge who is performing judicial duties pursuant to this subsection’ shall be paid the same compensation (in lieu of retired pay) and allowances for travel and other expenses us a judge.”
Sec. 2. The United States Court of Military Appeals established under this Act is a continuation of the Court of Military Appeals as 82 Stat. 179it existed prior to the effective date of this Act, and no loss of rights or powers, interruption or jurisdiction, or prejudice to matters pending in the Court of Military Appeals before the effective date of this Act shall result. A judge of the Court of Military Appeals so serving on the day before the effective date of this Act shall, for all purposes, be a judge of the United State Court of Military Appeals under this Act.

August 1, 1968

[S. 3497]

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

Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968.
That this Act may be cited as the “Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968”.
declaration of policy Sec. 2.

The Congress affirms the national goal, as set forth in

63 stat. 413.

42 USC 1441.

section 2 of the Housing Act of 1949, of “a decent home and a suitable living environment for every American family”.

The Congress finds that this goal has not been fully realized for many of the Nation’s lower income families; that this is a matter of grave national concern; and that there exist in the public and private sectors of the economy the resources and capabilities necessary to the full realization of this goal.

The Congress declares that in the administration of those housing programs authorized by this Act which are designed to assist families with incomes so low that they could not otherwise decently house themselves, and of other Government programs designed to assist in the provision of housing for such families, the highest priority and emphasis should be given to meeting the housing needs of those families for which the national goal has not become a reality; and in the carrying out of such programs there should be the fullest practicable utilization of the resources and capabilities of private enterprise and of individual self-help techniques.

sections 235 and 236 of the National Housing Act, the below-market interest rate program under section 221(d)(3) of such Act, the low-rent. public housing program under the United States Housing Act of 1937, and the rent supplement program under section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development shall— (1) require, in consultation with the Secretary of Labor, that to the greatest extent feasible opportunities for training and employment arising in connection with the planning, construction, rehabilitation, and operation of housing assisted under such programs be given to lower income persons residing in the area of such housing; and (2) require, in consultation with the Administrator of the Small Business Administration, that to the greatest extent feasible contracts for work to be performed pursuant to such programs shall, where appropriate, lie awarded to business concerns, including but not limited to individuals or firms doing business in the fields of design, architecture, building construction, rehabilitation, maintenance, or repair, located in or owned in substantial part by persons residing in the area of such housing.
82 Stat. 477
improved architectural design in government housing programs Sec. 4.

The Congress finds that Federal aids to housing have not contributed fully to improvement in architectural standards. This objective has been contemplated in Federal housing legislation since the establishment of mortgage insurance through the Federal Housing Administration.

The Congress commends the Department of Housing and Urban Development for its recent efforts to improve architectural standards through competitive design awards and in other ways but at the same time recognizes that this important objective requires high priority if Federal aid is to make its full comm unity wide contribution toward improving our urban environment.

The Congress further finds that even within the necessary budget limitations on housing for low and moderate income families architectural design could be improved not only to make, the housing more attractive, but to make it better suited to the needs of occupants.

The Congress declares that in the administration of housing programs which assist in the provision of housing for low and moderate income families, emphasis should be given to encouraging good design as an essential component of such housing and to developing housing which will lie of such quality as to reflect its important relationship to the architectural standards of the neighborhood and community in which it is situated, consistent with prudent budgeting.

year 1969 and in the calendar year 1970, make a report to the respective Committees on Banking and Currency of the House of Representatives and the Senate identifying specific areas of program administration and management which requite improvement, describing actions taken and proposed for the purpose of making such improvements, and recommending such legislation as may be necessary to accomplish such improvements. Each such report shall include, but not be limited to, the following areas of program administration and management: uniformity and standardization in program requirements, simplification of program procedures, ways and means of expediting consideration of proposed projects and applications for assistance, the provision of more useful and specific assistance to communities, organizations and individuals seeking to utilize the Department’s programs, and ways and means of combining or otherwise adapting the Department’s programs to increase their usefulness in meeting the individual needs of applicants.

required unforeseen disaster relief measures and have placed an increasing burden on the Nation’s resources; (2) despite the installation of preventive and protective works and the adoption of other public programs designed to reduce losses caused by flood damage, these methods have not been sufficient to protect, adequately against growing exposure to future flood losses; (3) as a matter of national policy, a reasonable method of sharing the risk of flood losses is <page identifier="/us/stat/82/573">82 <inline class="smallCaps">Stat</inline>. 573</page>through a program of Hood insurance which can complement and encourage preventive and protective measures; and (4) if such a program is initiated and carried out gradually, it can be expanded as knowledge is gained and experience is appraised, thus eventually making flood insurance coverage, available on reasonable terms and conditions to persons who have need for such protection.</content> </subsection> <subsection class="indent0 fontsize10"><num value="b">(b) </num> <content>The Congress also finds that (1) many factors have made it uneconomic for the private insurance industry alone to make flood insurance available to those in need of such protection on reasonable terms and conditions; but (2) a program of flood insurance with large-scale participation of the Federal Government and carried out to the maximum extent practicable by the private insurance industry is feasible and can be initiated.</content> </subsection> <subsection class="indent0 fontsize10"><num value="c">(c) </num> <content>The Congress further finds that (1) a program of flood insurance can promote the public interest by providing appropriate protection against the perils of flood losses and encouraging sound land use by minimizing exposure of property to flood losses; and (2) the objectives of a flood insurance program should be integrally related to a unified national program for flood plain management arid, to this end, it is the sense of Congress that within two years following the effective date of this title the President should transmit to the Congress for its <sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Proposals transmitted to Congress.</p></sidenote>consideration any further proposals necessary for such a unified program, including proposals for the allocation of costs among beneficiaries of flood protection.</content> </subsection> <subsection class="indent0 fontsize10"><num value="d">(d) </num> <content>It is therefore the purpose of this title to (1) authorize a flood insurance program by means of which flood insurance, over a period of time, can be made available on a nationwide basis through the cooperative efforts of the Federal Government and the private insurance industry, and (2) provide flexibility in the program so that such flood insurance may be based on workable methods of pooling risks, minimizing costs, and distributing burdens equitably among those who will be protected by flood insurance and the general public.</content> </subsection> <subsection class="indent0 fontsize10"><num value="e">(e) </num> <content>It is the further purpose of this title to (1) encourage State and local governments to make appropriate land use adjustments to constrict the development of land which is exposed to flood damage and minimize damage caused by flood losses, (2) guide the development of proposed future construction where practicable, away from locations which are threatened by flood hazards, (3) encourage lending and credit institutions, as a matter of national policy, to assist, in furthering the objectives of the flood insurance program, (4) assure that any Federal assistance provided under the program will be related closely to all flood-related programs and activities of the Federal Government, and (5) authorize continuing studies of flood hazards in order to provide for a constant reappraisal of the flood insurance program and its effect on land use requirements.</content> </subsection> </section> <section> <heading class="centered smallCaps">amendments to the federal flood insurance act of 1956</heading> <num

Fogarty of Rhode Island, and Paul G. Rogers of Florida; and further that this Center has been strongly endorsed by representatives of the scientific community as an urgently required facility for the improvement of communications necessary for health education, research, and practice; and further that this Center would function to contribute enduringly to the life-long objectives of Senator Hill’s legislative career: Be it therefore Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,

Such payment with respect to any farm shall be made on the quantity of extra long staple cotton, determined in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary, equal to either (1) for a farm on which the acreage planted to such cotton does not exceed an acreage determined by multiplying the farm acreage allotment by the price-support payment factor established by the Secretary for each crop, the actual production of such cotton on the farm, or (2) for a farm on which the acreage planted to such cotton exceeds an acreage determined by multiplying the farm acreage allotment by the price-support, payment, factor but does not exceed the farm acreage allotment, the actual production of such cotton on the farm attributable to the number of acres determined by multiplying the farm acreage allotment by such price-support payment factor. The Secretary shall establish the price-support payment factor for each such crop of extra long staple cotton by dividing the 1966 national acreage allotment for such cotton by the national acreage allotment proclaimed for such crop, except that such factor shall not be more than one. The Secretary shall provide for the sharing of price-support payments under this subsection among producers on a farm on the basis of their respective shares in the crop of extra long staple cotton produced on the farm, or the proceeds therefrom. The provisions of subsection 8(g) of the Soil Conservation and Domestic Allotment Act,

80 Stat. 1167.

16 USC 590h.

as amended (relating to assignment of payments), shall also apply to payments under this subsection.

No allotment shall be transferred under this subsection to a farm in another State or to a person for use in another State, The Secretary shall prescribe regulations for the administration of this subsection and may prescribe such terms and conditions as he deems necessary. “(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if the extra long

staple cotton acreage allotment established for any farm for the 1968 and subsequent crops is greater than such allotment for the preceding crop, because of transfers under subsection (f) of this section or for any other reason, the soil conserving base established for the farm shall be reduced by the same number of acres that the allotment is increased for that year.”
Sec. 7. Section 407 of the Agricultural Act of 1949, as amended,

Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968.
That this Act may be cited as the “Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968”.
definitions Sec. 2. As used in this Act— (1) “Person” means any individual, firm, joint venture, partnership, corporation, association, State, municipality, cooperative association, or joint stock association, and includes any trustee, receiver, assignee, or personal representative thereof; (2) “Gas” means natural gas, flammable gas, or gas which is toxic or corrosive; (3) “Transportation of gas” means the gathering, transmission or distribution or gas by pipeline or its storage in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce; except that it shall not include the gathering of gas in those rural locations which be outside the limits of any incorporated or unincorporated city, town, village, or any other designated residential or commercial area such as a subdivision, a business or shopping center, a community development, or any similar populated area which the Secretary may define as a nonrural area; (4) “Pipeline facilities” includes, without limitation, new and existing pipe rights-of-way and any equipment facility, or building used in the transportation of gas or the treatment of gas during the course of transportation but “rights-of-way” as used in this Act does not authorize the Secretary to prescribe the location or routing of any pipeline facility; (5) “State” includes each of the several States, the District of Columbia, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico; (6) “Municipality” means a city, county, or any other political subdivision of a State; (7) “National organization of State commissions” means the national organization of the State commissions referred to in part II

standards established Sec. 3. (a) As soon as practicable but not later than three months after the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall, by order, adopt as interim minimum Federal safety standards for pipeline facilities and the transportation of gas in each State the State standards regulating pipeline facilities and the transportation of gas within such State on the date of enactment of this Act. In any State in which no such standards are in effect, the Secretary shall, by order, establish interim Federal safety standards for pipeline facilities and the transportation of gas in such State which shall be such standards as are common to a majority of States having safety standards for the transportation of gas and pipeline facilities on such date. Interim standards shall remain in effect until amended or revoked pursuant to this section. Any State agency may adopt such additional or more stringent 82 Stat. 721standards for pipeline facilities and the transportation of gas not subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Power Commission under the Natural Gas Act as are not incompatible with the Federal minimum

Act and from time to time thereafter, the Secretary shall, by order, establish minimum Federal safety standards for the transportation of gas and pipeline facilities. Such standards may apply to the design, installation, inspection, testing, construction, extension, operation, replacement, and maintenance of pipeline facilities. Standards affecting the design, installation, construction, initial inspection, and initial testing shall not be applicable to pipeline facilities in existence on the date such standards are adopted. Whenever the Secretary shall find a particular facility to be hazardous to life or property, he shall be empowered to require the person operating such facility to take such steps necessary to remove such hazards. Such Federal safety standards shall be practicable and designed to meet the need for pipeline safety. In prescribing such standards, the Secretary shall consider—

Consideration factors.

 (1) relevant available pipeline safety data; (2) whether such standards are appropriate for the particular type of pipeline transportation; (3) the reasonableness of any proposed standards; and (4) the extent to which such standards will contribute to public safety. Any State agency may adopt such additional or more stringent standards for pipeline facilities and the transportation of gas not subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Power Commission under the Natural Gas Act as are not incompatible with the Federal minimum standards, but may not adopt or continue in force after the minimum Federal safety standards referred to in this subsection become effective any such standards applicable to interstate transmission facilities. (c) Any standards prescribed under this section, and amendments

Effective date.

thereto, shall become effective thirty days after the date of issuance of such standards unless the Secretary, for good cause recited, determines an earlier or later effective date is required as a result of the period reasonably necessary for compliance.

of gas or the operation of pipeline facilities, the Secretary may, after notice and opportunity for hearing and under such terms and conditions and to such extent as he deems appropriate, waive in whole or in part compliance with any standard established under this Act, if he determines that a waiver of compliance with such standard is not inconsistent with gas pipeline safety. The Secretary shall state his reasons for any such waiver. A State agency, with respect to which there is in effect a certification pursuant to section 5(a) or an agreement pursuant to section 5(b), may waive compliance with a safety standard in the same manner as the Secretary, provided such State agency gives the Secretary written notice at least sixty days prior to the effective date of the waiver. If, before the effective date of a waiver to be granted by a State agency, the Secretary objects in writing to the 82 Stat. 722granting of the waiver, any State agency action granting the waiver

Infra.

title 10, United States Code is amended as follows: (1) Section 1431(b) is amended to read as follows: “(b) To provide an annuity under section 1434 of this title, a person covered by subsection (a) may elect to receive a reduced amount of the retired pay or retainer pay to which he may become entitled as a result of service in his armed force. Except as otherwise provided in this section, unless it is made before he completes nineteen years of service for which he is entitled to credit in the computation of his basic pay, the election must be made at least two years before the first day for which retired pay or retainer pay is granted. However, if, because of military operations, a member is assigned to an isolated station or is missing, interned in a neutral country, captured by a hostile force, or beleaguered or besieged, and for that reason is unable to make an election before completing nineteen years of that service, he may make the election, to become effective immediately, within one year after he ceases to be assigned to that station or returns to the jurisdiction of his armed force, as the case may be. A member to whom retired pay or retainer pay is granted retroactively, and who is otherwise eligible to make an election, may make the election within ninety days after receiving notice that such pay has been granted to him. An election made after the date of enactment of this amendment is not effective if— “(1) the elector dies during the first thirty-day period he is entitled to retired pay as a result of a physical condition which led to his being granted retired pay under chapter 61 of title 10 with

70A Stat. 91.

10 USC 1201–1221.

a disability of 100 per centum under the standard schedule of rating disabilities in use by the Veterans’ Administration at the time of the determination of the per centum of his disability; “(2) the disability was not the result of injury or disease received in line of duty as a direct result of armed conflict; and “(3) his widow or children are entitled to dependency and indemnity compensation under chapter 13 of title 38 based upon

72 Stat. 1126.

38 USC 401–423.

his death.” (2) Section 1431(c) is amended to read as follows: “(c) An election may be changed or revoked by the elector before the first day for which retired or retainer pay is granted. Unless it is made on the basis of restored mental competency under section 1433 of this title, or unless it is made before the elector completes nineteen

70A Stat. 109.

years of service for which he is entitled to credit in the computation of his basic pay (in which case only the latest change or revocation shall be effective), the change or revocation is not effective if it is made less than two years before the first day for which retired or retainer pay is granted. The elector may, however, before the first day for which retired or retainer pay is granted, change or revoke his election (provided the change does not increase the amount of the annuity elected) to reflect a change in the marital or dependency status of the member or his family that is caused by death, divorce, annulment, remarriage, or acquisition of a child, if such change or revocation of election is made within two years of such change in marital or dependency status.” (3) The text of section 1434 is amended to read as follows:

Maximum and minimum amounts; beneficiaries.

70A Stat. 109; 75 Stat. 811.

He may make the annuity payable— “(1) to, or on behalf of, the surviving spouse, ending when the spouse dies or remarries; “(2) in equal shares to, or on behalf of, the surviving children eligible for the annuity at the time each payment is due, ending when there is no surviving eligible child; or “(3) to, or on behalf of, the surviving spouse, and after the death or remarriage of that spouse, in equal shares to, or on behalf of, the surviving eligible children, ending when there is no surviving eligible child. “(b) A person may elect to provide both the annuity provided in clause (1) of subsection (a) and that provided in clause (2) of subsection (a), but the combined amount of the annuities may not be more than 50 per centum nor less than 12½ per centum of his retired or retainer pay but in no case less than $25. “(c) An election of any annuity under clause (1) or (2) of subsection (a), or any combination of annuities under subsection (b), shall provide that no deduction may be made from the elector’s retired or retainer pay after the last day of the month in which there is no beneficiary who would be eligible for the annuity if the elector died. For the purposes of the preceding sentence, a child (other than a child who is incapable of supporting himself because of a mental defect or physical incapacity existing before his eighteenth birthday) who is at least eighteen, but under twenty-three years of age, and who is not pursuing a course of study or training defined in section 1435, of this title, shall be considered an eligible beneficiary unless the Secretary concerned approves an application submitted by the member under

Post, p. 753.

An election of an annuity under clause (3) of subsection (a) shall provide that no deduction may be made from the elector’s retired or retainer pay after the last day of the month in which there is no eligible spouse because of death or divorce. “(d) Under regulations prescribed under section 1444(a) of this

title; a person may, before or after the first day for which retired or retainer pay is granted, provide for allocating, during the period of the surviving spouse’s eligibility, a part of the annuity under subsection (a) (3) for payment to those of his surviving children who are not children of that spouse.” (4)

Eligibility.

Section 1435 (2) (B) is amended to read as follows: “(B) under eighteen years of age, or incapable of supporting themselves because of a mental defect or physical incapacity existing before their eighteenth birthday, or at least eighteen, but under twenty-three, years of age and pursuing a full-time course of study or training in a high school, trade School, technical or vocational institute, junior college, college, university, or comparable recognized educational institution;”. (5) Section 1435 is amended by adding the following flush sentences at the end:

“For the purposes of clause (2)(B), a child is considered to be pursuing a full-time course of study or training during an interval between school years that does not exceed one hundred and fifty days if he has demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Secretary concerned that he has a bona fide intention of commencing, resuming, or continuing to pursue a full-time course of study or training in a recognized educational institution immediately after that interval.”

 82 Stat. 753 (6) Section 1436(b) is amended to read as follows:

Annuity reduction; withdrawal from program.

75 Stat. 811.

70A Stat. 111.

 “(b) Under regulations prescribed under section 1444(a) of this title, the Secretary concerned may, upon application by the retired member, allow the member— “(1) to reduce the amount of the annuity specified by him under section 1434(a) and 1434(b) of this title but to not less

For this purpose, a child (other than a child who is incapable of supporting himself because of a mental defect or physical incapacity existing before his eighteenth birthday) who is at least eighteen, but under twenty-three years of age shall not be considered an eligible beneficiary; or “(4) to elect that a child (other than a child who is incapable of supporting himself because of a mental defect or physical incapacity existing before his eighteenth birthday) who is at least eighteen, but under twenty-three years of age shall not be considered eligible for the annuity provided under clause (2) of section 1434(a) of this title, or for an annuity provided under section 1434(b) of this title, if on the first day for which retired or retainer pay is granted the member had in effect a valid election under clause (2) of section 1434(a) of this title, or under section 1434(b) of this title.” A retired member may not reduce an annuity under clause (1) of this subsection, or withdraw under clause (2) of this subsection, earlier than the first day of the seventh calendar month beginning after he applies for reduction or withdrawal. A change of election under clause (3) of this subsection shall be effective on the first day of the month following the month in which application is made. An election under clause (4) of this subsection shall be effective on the first day of the month following the month in which application is made and, if on the effective date there is no surviving child who would be eligible for an annuity provided under clause (2) of section 1434(a), or under section 1434(b), of this title if the elector died, no deduction shall lie made for such an annuity to, or on behalf of, a child from the elector’s retired or retainer pay for that month or any subsequent month. No amounts by which a member’s retired or retainer pay is reduced prior to the effective date of a reduction of annuity, withdrawal, change of election, or election under this subsection may be refunded to, or credited on behalf of, the member by virtue of an application made by him under this subsection.

Payments shall be made in equal installments and not later than the fifteenth day of each month following that month. However, no annuity accrues for the month, in which entitlement thereto ends. “(b) Each annuity payable to or on behalf of an eligible child (other than a child who is incapable of supporting himself because of a mental defect or physical incapacity existing before his eighteenth 82 Stat. 754

be cited as the “Wholesome Poultry Products Act”.
Sec. 2. Section 2 of the Poultry Products Inspection Act (71 Stat. 441, as amended; 21 U.S.C. 451) is hereby amended to read:
“Sec. 2. Poultry and poultry 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 poultry products distributed to them are wholesome, not adulterated, and properly marked, labeled, and packaged. Unwholesome, adulterated, or misbranded poultry products impair the effective regulation of poultry products in interstate or foreign commerce, are injurious to the public welfare, destroy markets for wholesome, not adulterated, and properly labeled and packaged poultry products, and result in sundry’ losses to poultry producers and processors of poultry and poultry products, as well as injury to consumers. It is hereby found that all articles and poultry which are regulated under this Act are either in interstate or foreign commerce or substantially affect such commerce, and that regulation by the Secretary of Agriculture 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 Io protect the health and welfare of consumers.”

It is the intent of Congress that when poultry and poultry products are condemned because of disease, the reason for condemnation in such instances shall be supported by scientific fact, information, or criteria, and such condemnation under this Act shall be achieved through uniform inspection standards and uniform applications thereof.”
Sec. 4. Section 4 of said Act (21 U.S.C. 453) is hereby amended to read:
“Sec. 4.

The amount to be contributed to any State by the Secretary under this section from Federal funds for any year shall not exceed 50 per centum of the estimated total cost of the cooperative program: and the Federal funds shall be allocated among the States desiring to cooperate on an equitable basis. Such cooperation and payment shall be contingent at all times upon the administration of the State program in a manner which the Secretary, in consultation with the appropriate advisory committee appointed under subparagraph (4), deems adequate to effectuate the purposes of this section. “(4) The Secretary may appoint advisory committees consisting

When the State program includes performance of certain functions by a municipality or other subordinate governmental unit, such unit shall be deemed to be a part of the State agency for purposes of this section. “(c) (1) If the Secretary has reason to believe, by thirty days prior to the expiration of two years after enactment of the Wholesome Poultry Products Act, that a State has failed to develop or is not enforcing, with respect to all establishments within its jurisdiction (except those that would be exempted from Federal inspection under subparagraph (2) of this paragraph (c)) at which poultry are slaughtered, or poultry products are processed for use as human food, solely for distribution within such State, and the products of such establishments, requirements at least equal to those imposed under sections 1–4, 6–10, and 12–22 of this Act, he shall promptly notify the Governor of the State of this fact.

[H. R. 9362]

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

Mountain Park reclamation project, Okla.

of the Interior is authorized to construct, operate, and maintain the Mountain Park reclamation project, Oklahoma, under the Federal reclamation laws (Act of June 17, 1902: 32 Stat. 388, and Acts amendatory thereof or supplementary thereto) for the principal purposes of

43 USC 371.

storing, regulating, and furnishing water for municipal, domestic, and industrial uses, conserving and developing fish and wildlife resources, providing outdoor recreation opportunities, and controlling floods. The principal features of the project shall consist of a dam and reservoir on Otter Creek, a diversion dam on Elk Creek, a canal from the diversion dam to a storage reservoir on Otter Creek, aqueducts from the storage reservoir to the cities of Altus and Snyder, Oklahoma, a wildlife management area, and basic public outdoor recreation facilities. Construction of the project may be undertaken in such units or stages as in the determination of the Secretary will best serve project requirements and meet water needs.
Sec. 2. (a) Costs of the project, or any unit or stage thereof, allocated

Repayment period.

to municipal water supply, shall be repayable, with interest, by the municipal water users over a period of not more than, fifty years from the date that water is first delivered for that purpose, pursuant to contracts with municipal corporations or other organizations, as defined in section 2(g) of the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 (53 Stat. 1187). Such contracts shall be precedent to the commencement of

43 USC 485a.

construction of any unit or stage of the project. The contracting organization shall be responsible for the disposal and sale of water surplus 82 Stat. 854to its requirements, but revenues therefrom shall be used only for payment of operation and maintenance costs, interest, and retirement of the obligation assumed in the contract. Contracts may be entered into with water users’ organizations pursuant to the provisions of this Act without regard to the last sentence of subsection 9(e) of the Reclamation

43 USC 485h.

Project Act of 1939 (53 Stat. 1187). (b)

Interest rate; determination by Secretary.

The interest rate used for computing interest during construction and interest on the unpaid balance of the costs of the project allocated to municipal water supply shall be determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which construction is commenced, on the basis of the computed average interest rate payable by the Treasury upon its outstanding marketable public obligations which are neither due nor callable for redemption for fifteen years from date of issue, and by adjusting such interest rate to the nearest multiple of one-eighth of 1 per centum if the computed average interest rate is not a multiple of one-eighth of 1 per centum.
Sec. 3.

Transfer of operation.

The Secretary is authorized to transfer to a water users’ organization the care, operation, and maintenance of the project works, and, if such transfer is made to credit, annually against the organization’s repayment obligation that portion of the year’s operation and maintenance costs which, if the United States had continued to operate the project, would have been allocated to flood control, fish and wildlife, and recreation purposes. Prior to assuming care, operation, and maintenance of the project works the water users’ organization shall obligate itself to operate them in accordance with regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Army with respect to flood control, and by the Secretary of the Interior with respect to fish and wildlife and recreation. Upon complete payment of the obligation assumed, the water users’ organization, its designee or designees, shall be conveyed title to such portions of the aqueducts and related facilities as are used solely for delivering project water to water users, and shall have a permanent right to use that portion of project reservoir capacity which is or may be allocated to municipal and industrial water supply purposes by the Secretary of the Interior, so long as the space designated for those purposes may be physically available, taking into account such equitable reallocation of reservoir storage capacities among the purposes to be served by the project as may be necessary due to sedimentation, subject, if the project is then operated by the United States, to payment to the United States of a reasonable annual charge to cover operation and maintenance costs and a fair share of administrative costs applicable to the project.
Sec. 4. Expenditures for the Mountain Park project may be made without, regard to the soil survey and land classification requirements

43 USC 390a.

of the Interior Department Appropriation Act of 1954 (67 Stat. 266).

[S. 119]

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

Wild and Scenic Rivers Act.
That (a) this Act may be cited as the “Wild and Scenic Rivers Act”. (b) It is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States that certain selected rivers of the Nation which, with their immediate environments, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural, or other similar values, shall be preserved in free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations. The Congress declares that the established national policy of dam and other construction at appropriate sections of the rivers of the United States needs to be complemented by a policy that would preserve other selected rivers or sections thereof in their free-flowing condition to protect the water quality of such rivers and to fulfill other vital national conservation purposes. (c) The purpose of this Act is to implement this policy by instituting a national wild and scenic rivers system, by designating the initial components of that system, and by prescribing the methods by which and standards according to which additional components may be added to the system from time to time.
Sec. 2. (a)

National wild and scenic rivers system.

The national wild and scenic rivers system shall comprise rivers (i) that are authorized for inclusion therein by Act of Congress, or (ii) that are designated as wild, scenic or recreational rivers by or pursuant to an act of the legislature of the State or States through which they flow, that are to be permanently administered as wiki, scenic or recreational rivers by an agency or political subdivision of the State or States concerned without expense to the United States, that are found by the Secretary of the Interior, upon application of the Governor of the State or the Governors of the States concerned, 82 Stat. 907or a person or persons thereunto duly appointed by him or them, to meet the criteria established in this Act and such criteria supplementary thereto as he may prescribe, and that are approved by him for inclusion in the system, including, upon application of the Governor of the State concerned, the Allagash Wilderness Waterway, Maine, and that segment of the Wolf River, Wisconsin, which flows through Langlade County. (b) A wild, scenic or recreational river area eligible to be included

Eligibility for inclusion.

These represent vestiges of primitive America. (2) Scenic river areas—Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments, with shorelines or watersheds still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads. (3) Recreational river areas—Those rivers or sections of rivers that are readily accessible by road or railroad, that may have some development along their shorelines, and that may have undergone some impoundment or diversion in the past.
Sec. 3. (a) The following rivers and the land adjacent thereto are

National wild and scenic rivers components.

hereby designated as components of the national wiki and scenic rivers system: (1) Clearwater, Middle Fork, Idaho.—The Middle Fork from the town of Kooskia upstream to the town of Lowell; the Lochsa River from its junction with the Selway at Lowell forming the Middle Fork, upstream to the Powell Ranger Station; and the Selway River from Lowell upstream to its origin; to be administered by the Secretary of Agriculture.

Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as affecting the authority of the Secretary under subsections (a.) and (c) of this section to acquire such areas for the purposes of this Act. (c) If any individual tract or parcel of land acquired is partly inside and partly outside the boundaries of the park or the administrative site the Secretary may, in order to minimize the payment of severance damages, acquire the whole of the tract or parcel and exchange that part of it which is outside the boundaries for land or interests in land inside the boundaries or for other land or interests in land acquired pursuant to this Act. and dispose of so much thereof as is not so utilized in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 (63 Stat. 377), as amended (40 U.S.C. 471 et seq.).

The owner shall elect the term to be reserved. Unless the property is wholly or partially donated to the United States, the Secretary shall pay the owner the fair market value of the property on the date of acquisition minus the fair market value on that date of the right retained by the owner. A right retained pursuant to this section shall be subject to termination by the Secretary upon his determination that it is being exercised in a manner inconsistent with the purpose of this Act, and it shall terminate by operation of law upon the Secretary’s notifying the holder of the right of such determination and tendering to him an amount equal to the fair market, value of that portion of the right which remains unexpired.

(c) The Secretary shall have, with respect to any real property acquired by him in sect ions .5 and 8, townsnip 13 north, range 1 east, Humboldt meridian, authority to sell or lease the same to the former owner under such conditions and restrictions as will assure that it is not utilized in a manner or for purposes inconsistent with the national park.
Sec. 5. In exercising his authority to acquire property by exchange, the Secretary may accept title to any non-Federal property within the boundaries of the park, and outside of such boundaries within the limits prescribed in this Act. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Secretary may acquire such property from the grantor by 82 Stat. 934exchange for any federally owned property under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management in California, except property’ needed for public use and management, which he classifies as suitable for exchange or other disposal, or any federally owned property he may designate within the Northern Redwood Purchase Unit in Del Norte County, California, except that section known and designated as the Yurok Experimental Forest, consisting of approximately nine hundred and thirty-five acres. Such federally owned property shall also be available for use by the Secretary in lieu of, or together with, cash in payment, of just compensation for any real property taken pursuant to section 3(b) of this Act. The values of the properties so exchanged either shall be approximately equal or, if they are not approximately equal, the value shall be equalized by the payment of cash to the grantor or to the Secretary as the circumstances require.

Through such programs, a meaningful work experience is combined with formal education enabling students to acquire knowledge, skills, and appropriate attitudes. Such programs remove the artificial barriers which separate work and education and, by involving educators with employers, create interaction whereby the needs and problems of both are made known. Such interaction makes it possible for occupational curricula to be revised to reflect current needs in various occupations. It is the purpose of this part to assist the State to expand cooperative work-study programs by providing financial assistance for personnel to coordinate such programs, and to provide instruction related to the work experience; to reimburse employers when necessary for certain added costs incurred in providing on-the-job training through work experience; and to pay costs for certain services, such as transportation of students or other unusual costs that the individual students may not reasonably be expected to assume while pursuing a cooperative work-study program.</content> </section> <section> <heading class="smallCaps centered">“authorizations and allotments</heading> <num value="172"><inline class="smallCaps">“Sec</inline>. 172. </num><subsection class="inline"><num value="a">(a) </num><sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">Appropriation.</p></sidenote><content>There is authorized to be appropriated for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1969, $20,000,000, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1970, $35,000,000, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1971, $50,000,000, and for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1972, $75,000,000, for making grants to the States for programs of vocational education designed to prepare students for employment through cooperative work-study arrangements.</content></subsection> <subsection class="firstIndent1 fontsize10"><num value="b">“(b) </num><paragraph class="inline"><num value="1">(1) </num><sidenote><p class="firstIndent1 fontsize8">State and territorial allotments.</p></sidenote><content>From the sums appropriated pursuant to this section for each fiscal year, the Commissioner shall reserve such amount, but not in excess of 3 per centum thereof, as he may determine, and shall apportion such amount among Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, according to their respective needs for assistance under this section.

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

The Foreign Military Sales Act.
That this Act may be cited as “The Foreign Military Sales Act”.
Chapter 1.— FOREIGN AND NATIONAL SECURITY POLICY OBJECTIVES AND RESTRAINTS 82 Stat. 1321
Section 1. The Need for International Defense Cooperation and Military Export Controls.—

As declared by the Congress in the Arms Control and Disarmament Act, an ultimate goal of the United States continues to be a world which is free from the scourge of war and the dangers and burdens of armaments; in which the use of force has been subordinated to the rule of law; and in which international adjustments to a changing world are achieved peacefully. In furtherance of that goal, it remains the policy of the United States to encourage regional arms control and disarmament agreements and to discourage arms races.

The Congress recognizes, however, that the United States and other free and independent countries continue to have valid requirements for effective and mutually beneficial defense relationships in order to maintain and foster the environment of international peace and security essential to social, economic, and political progress. Because of the growing cost and complexity of defense equipment, it is increasingly difficult and uneconomic for any country, particularly a developing country, to fill all of its legitimate defense requirements from its own design and production base. The need for international defense cooperation among the United States and those friendly countries to which it is allied by mutual defense treaties is especially important, since the effectiveness of their armed forces to act in concert to deter or defeat aggression is directly related to the operational compatibility of their defense equipment.

Accordingly, it remains the policy of the United States to facilitate I he common defense by entering into international arrangements with friendly countries which further the objective of applying agreed resources of each country to programs and projects of cooperative exchange of data, research, development, production, procurement, and logistics support to achieve specific national defense requirements and objectives of mutual concern. To this end, this Act authorizes sales by the United States Government to friendly countries having sufficient wealth to maintain and equip their own military forces at adequate strength, or to assume progressively larger shares of the costs thereof, without undue burden to their economies, in accordance with the restraints and control measures specified herein and in furtherance of the security objectives of the United States and of the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter.

It is the sense of the Congress that all such sales be approved only when they are consistent with the foreign policy interests of the United States, the purposes of the foreign assistance program of the United States as embodied in the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended,

75 Stat. 424.

the extent and character of the military requirement, and the economic and financial capability of the recipient country, with particular regard being given, where appropriate, to proper balance among such sales, grant military assistance, and economic assistance as well as to82 Stat. 1322 the impact of the sales on programs of social and economic development and on existing or incipient arms races.

It is further the sense of Congress that sales and guaranties under

 progress to their own people; Provided, That the President may waive this limitation when he determines it would be important to the security of the United States, and promptly so reports to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations in the Senate.
Sec. 2. Coordination With Foreign Policy.— (a) Nothing contained in this Act shall be construed to infringe upon the powers or functions of the Secretary of State. (b) Under the direction of the President, the Secretary of State, taking into account other United States activities abroad, such as military assistance, economic assistance, and food for freedom, shall be responsible for the continuous supervision and general direction of sales under this Act, including, but not limited to, determining whether there shall lie a sale to a country and the amount thereof, to the end that sales are integrated with other United States activities and the foreign policy of the United States is best served thereby. (c) The President shall prescribe, appropriate procedures to assure coordination among representatives of the United States Government in each country, under the leadership of the Chief of the United States Diplomatic Mission. The Chief of the diplomatic mission shall make sure that recommendations of such representatives pertaining to sales are coordinated with political and economic considerations, and his comments shall accompany such recommendations if he so desires.
Sec. 3. Eligibility.— (a) No defense article or defense service shall lie sold by the United States Government under this Act to any country or international organization unless— (1) the President finds that the furnishing of defense articles and defense services to such country or international organization will strengthen the security of the United States and promote world peace; (2) the country or international organization shall have agreed not to transfer title to, or possession of, any defense article so furnished to it to anyone not an officer, employee, or agent of that country or international organization unless the consent of the President has first been obtained; and (3) the country or international organization is otherwise eligible to purchase defense articles or defense services.

Report.

The President shall promptly submit a report to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and to the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate on the implementation of each agreement entered into pursuant to clause (2) of this subsection. (b) No defense article or defense service shall be sold by the United States Government under this Act to any country which, after the date of enactment of this Act, seizes or takes into custody or fines an American fishing vessel engaged in fishing more than twelve miles

 from the coast of that country. The President may waive the provisions of this subsection when he determines it to be important to the security of the United States, and promptly so reports to the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate.
Sec. 4. Purposes for Which Military Sales by the United States Are Authorized.— Defense articles and defense services shall be sold by the United States Government under this Act to friendly countries solely for internal security, for legitimate self-defense, to permit the82 Stat. 1323 recipient country to participate in regional or collective arrangements or measures consistent with the Charter of the United Nations, or otherwise to permit the recipient country to participate in collective measures requested by the United Nations for the purpose of maintaining or restoring international peace and security, or for the purpose of enabling foreign military forces in less developed friendly countries to construct public works and to engage in other activities helpful to the economic and social development of such friendly countries. It is the sense of the Congress that such foreign military forces should not. be maintained or established solely for civic action activities and that such civic action activities not significantly detract from the capability of the military forces to perform their military missions and be coordinated with and form part of the total economic and social development effort: Provided, That none of the funds contained in this authorization shall be used to guarantee, or extend credit, or participate in an extension of credit in connection with any sale of sophisticated weapons systems, such as missile systems and jet aircraft for military purposes, to any underdeveloped country other than Greece, Turkey, Iran, Israel, the Republic of China, the Philippines and Korea unless the President determines that such financing is important to the national security of the United States and reports within thirty

Sec. 24. Guaranties.— (a) The President may guarantee any individual, corporation, partnership, or other juridical entity doing business in the United States (excluding United States Government agencies) against political and credit risks of nonpayment arising out of their financing of credit sales of defense articles and defense services to friendly countries and international organizations.

 Whereas the Congress finds that unprecedented scientific opportunities and technological possibilities exist to improve the weather services for the United States by increasing the accuracy and extending the time range of weather prediction; Whereas substantial improvements in the weather services of the United States would enhance the protection of life and property against severe storms and other hazards, would further the safety and efficiency of air and marine transportation, and would assist the growth of agriculture, commerce, and industry, thereby yielding social and economic benefits of great magnitude to the peoples of the United States; Whereas the increased capability in weather prediction and weather services to the people of the United States will require the development and operation of a system for the acquisition, communication, and processing of weather data from over the entire globe, and the conduct of a systematic program of research to broaden the scientific understanding of global atmospheric processes; Whereas the global weather system and the research program—the world weather program—can be more effectively and economically carried out through a cooperative effort by the nations of the world which have already demonstrated in international forums a genuine interest and desire to cooperate and participate in the required effort; Whereas the World Meteorological Organization has taken action on an initial implementation program for the World Weather Watch System and the International Council of Scientific Unions in concert with the World Meteorological Organization has begun to move forward with the planning of the research programs: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring),

Sec. 2.

 That it is further the sense of Congress that, the President should cooperate with other nations in (1) a program, utilizing proven technology, procedures, and techniques, for the immediate improvement of the capability of the existing international weather system to observe the global atmosphere and to communicate, process, and analyze worldwide weather data; (2) a program to develop new technology, procedures, and techniques for the observation of the global atmosphere and for the communication, processing, and analysis of worldwide, weather data, so that the needs of operational weather fore-casting may be adequately served; (3) a program of research on the global wind systems of the atmosphere and on the interactions between the atmosphere and the underlying earth and oceans, including the collection of the data that may be required for these research activities; (4) a program for the training and education of scientists, engineers, and technical personnel for the development, operation, and conduct of any system or program referred to in clauses (1), (2), and (3) of this section ; and (5) a program to provide appropriate technical and training assistance and facilities to other nations and to international organizations so that they may effectively participate in an international system for the observation of the global atmosphere and the rapid and efficient communications, processing and analysis of worldwide weather data and so that they may fully utilize the data, charts, analyses, and other information provided by such a system.
Sec. 3.

Report to Congress.

 It is further the sense of the Congress that, on or before March 1 of each year, the President should transmit to the Congress a plan setting forth the proposed participation of the United States for the next fiscal year in international programs in meteorology.

V, shall establish for each allocation period a maximum level of imports into Puerto Rico of crude oil and unfinished oils which, in his judgment, 82 Stat. 1604is consonant with the objectives of this proclamation. The maximum level of imports of finished products into Puerto Rico for a particular allocation period shall be approximately the level of such imports during all or part of the calendar year 1958 as determined by the Secretary to be consonant with the purposes of this proclamation or such higher level as the Secretary may determine is required to meet a demand in Puerto Rico for finished products that would not otherwise be met. 2.

19 USC 1863 note.

 Effective with respect to the allocation period beginning January 1, 1968 subparagraph (1) of paragraph (b) of section 3 of Proclamation 3279, as amended, is amended to read as follows: (b) (1) With respect to the allocation of imports of crude oil and unfinished oils into Districts I-IV and into District V such regulations shall provide, to the extent possible, for a fair and equitable distribution among persons having refinery capacity in these districts in relation to refinery inputs (excluding inputs of crude oil or unfinished oils imported pursuant to clause (4) of paragraph (a) of section 1). The Secretary may by regulation also pro vidé for the making of allocations of imports of crude oil and unfinished oils into Districts I-IV and into District V to persons having petrochemical plants in these districts in relation to the outputs of such plants or in relation to inputs to such plants (excluding inputs of crude oil or unfinished oils imported pursuant to clause (4) of paragraph (a) of section 1). Provision may be made in the regulations for the making of such allocations on the basis of graduated scales. Not withstanding the levels prescribed in section 2 of this proclamation, the Secretary may also by regulation make such provisions as he deems consonant with the objectives of this proclamation for the making of allocations of imports of crude oil and unfinished oils into Districts I-IV and into District V to persons who manufacture from crude oil and unfinished oils (other than crude oil or unfinished oils imported pursuant to clause (4) of paragraph (a) of section 1) and who export finished products and petrochemicals, subject to such designations as the Secretary may make. Provision shall be made in the regulations for the gradual reduction of historical allocations made on the basis of the last allocations of imports of crude oil wider the Voluntary Oil Import Program: Provided, That provision shall be made for a more rapid reduction of historical allocations based on allocations made under the Voluntary Oil Import Program which reflected imports of crude oil in the category now covered by clause (4) of paragraph (a) of section 1: Provided further, That the regulations shall provide that no further reduction shall be made in a historical allocation of the class mentioned in the preceding proviso if the reduction provided for the next allocation period would result in a reduced historical allocation which is smaller than an allocation for the same period would be if computed (for the purposes of comparison only) on the basis of a total of refinery inputs (of the holder of the historical allocation) which includes inputs of crude oil and unfinished oils imported pursuant to clause (4) of paragraph (a) of section 1. 3. Effective with respect to shipments made during the calendar year 1968 from Puerto Rico to District V, subparagraph (2) of paragraph (b) of section 3 of Proclamation 3279, as amended, is amended to read as follows: (2) Such regulations shall provide for the allocation of imports of crude oil and unfinished oils into Puerto Rico among persons having 82 Stat. 1605refinery capacity in Puerto Rico in the calendar year 1964 on the basis of estimated requirements, acceptable to the Secretary, of each such person for crude oil and unfinished oils. The regulations shall provide also that if, during a period comprising the same number of months as an allocation period and ending three months before the beginning of the allocation period, any such person ships to Districts I—IV or to District V unfinished oils or finished products (other than residual fuel oil to be used as fuel) or sells unfinished oils or finished products (other than residual fuel oil to be used as fuel) which are shipped to Districts I-IV or to District V in excess of the volume of unfinished oils or finished products (other than residual fuel oil to lie used as fuel) which he so shipped or which he sold and were so shipped during the year 1965, the person’s allocation for the next allocation period shall be reduced by the amount of the excess. In addition, the Secretary may provide by regulation for the making, in instances in which the Secretary determines that such action would not impair the accomplishment of the objectives of this proclamation, of allocations of imports of crude oil and unfinished oils into Puerto Rico to persons as feed-stocks for facilities which will be established or for the operation of facilities which are establishes and which in the judgment of the Secretary will promote substantial expansion of employment in Puerto Rico through industrial development, and such regulations shall provide for the imposition of such conditions and restrictions upon such allocations as the Secretary may deem necessary to assure that any imports so allocated are used for the purposes for which an allocation is made and that the holder of such an allocation fulfills commitments made in connection with the making of the allocation. 4.

3824 January 31, 1968 AMERICAN HEART MONTH, 1968 Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America Proclamation Proclamation 3824
AMERICAN HEART MONTH, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

January 31, 1968

 A Proclamation

Heart and blood vessel diseases continue to be our Nation’s number one killer.

More than fourteen and a half million American adults definitely have heart disease. It is suspected that another thirteen million are similarly afflicted. Heart and circulatory diseases take more lives in our country every year than all other causes of death combined. Their legacy is pain, disability’ and sorrow in millions of families. Their cost to the nation exceeds twenty-five billion dollars annually.

In recent years physicians and medical scientists have scored impressive gains in the struggle against heart and blood vessel disease. In the past year alone there have been new breakthroughs in heart, surgery, and new triumphs in drug treatment. These and a host of other developments will save the lives of many men and women, and lengthen the lives of many more. The outlook is brighter for heart victims everywhere.

Yet our great advances cannot obscure the magnitude of tire task that still confronts us. We have far to go before we eliminate diseases of the heart and blood vessels as serious threats to life and health.

Tomorrow’s advances—like today’s achievements—will depend upon expanded programs of research, training, education, and service. For leadership in this critical effort, we shall look, as we have in the past, to the American Heart Association and other private and professional groups, to the National Heart Institute and the Heart Disease Control Program of the Public Health Service. Together, these constitute a creative partnership of government and private endeavor, dedicated to a common purpose and sustained by a concerned citizenry.

With the unremitting support, of all Americans, we can move ahead, a triumph at a time, toward ending the threat of heart and circulatory disease to the well-being of our people.

36 USC 169b.

The Congress, by a joint resolution approved December 30, 1963 (77 Stat. 843), requested the President to issue annually a proclamation designating February as American Heart Month.

82 Stat. 1607

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the month of February 1968 as American Heart Month, and I invite the governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and officials of other areas subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to issue similar proclamations.

I urge the people of the United States to give heed to the nationwide problem of the heart and blood vessel diseases, and to support all essential programs required to bring about its solution.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirty-first day of January, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.
3825 February 5, 1968 RED CROSS MONTH, 1968 Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America Proclamation Proclamation 3825
RED CROSS MONTH, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 5, 1968

 A Proclamation

On every battlefield, a flag of mercy dies. Its white field bears a Red Cross—the universal symbol of human compassion.

Under that flag, there are no enemies, no racial or religious animosities. There are only brothers.

The flag of the Red Cross flies in thousands of American cities and communities. Thirty million Americans are Red Cross members. Their support is an affirmation of the fundamental humanity of the American people.

In the tragedy and loneliness of war, the Red Cross is a familiar friend and companion to our men and women in uniform. It is with them in Vietnam, in 27 other nations where Americans serve, and in our bases at home.

Not only war, but trials of storm and earthquake, flood and fire, summon the Red Cross to service. Wherever disaster strikes, the Red Cross is there with food, shelter and relief from suffering—as it was last year in the ravaged valleys and lowlands of Alaska and Texas.

And every day of the year, the Red Cross serves all America with its programs to provide blood, and to teach first aid, water safety, and citizenship to tomorrow’s citizens.

This year the demands on the Red Cross—and its financial needs—will be exceptionally heavy. It must continue to serve our fighting men, to keep ready to assist the victims of disaster, and to maintain its life-saving work in our communities.

To meet these needs, this March the American Red Cross will conduct a special SOS (Support Our Servicemen) Campaign.

Its success concerns all of us—for the mission of the American Red Cross is the mission of all America.

82 Stat. 1608

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America and Honorary Chairman of the American National Red Cross, do hereby designate March 1968 as Red Cross Month, I strongly urge all Americans to heed the special SOS (Support Our Servicemen) campaign by volunteering their time and to contribute what they can.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this fifth day of February in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.
3826 February 7, 1968 NATIONAL POISON PREVENTION WEEK, 1968 Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America Proclamation Proclamation 3826
NATIONAL POISON PREVENTION WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 7, 1968

 A Proclamation

Each year, half a million Americans—most of them children—accidentally swallow substances that could kill or injure them.

Two familiar substances—medicine and household products—are among the most dangerous causes of accidental poisoning among children. Both are valuable assets in our homes—when used as directed. Yet both are a potential danger—a danger no more remote than the unknowing grasp of a small child.

The federal government, together with State and local agencies, private industry, and professional and civic organizations, has tried to alert Americans to the dangers that be on the shelves of a careless home. Since 1962, when we first called national attention to this threat, deaths by accidental poisoning among children under five years of age has declined 20 percent.

81 Stat. 466.

15 USC 1262 note.

I recently signed into law a bill to establish a National Commission on Product Safety whose job it will be to identify dangerous household products.

We must do more. We need to be much more alert to the dangers of accidental poisoning. And we need to learn more about how to treat it.

To stimulate public interest in this problem, I am designating the third week in March as National Poison Prevention Week, as requested by Congress.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning March 17, 1968, as National Poison Prevention Week.

I direct the appropriate agencies of the Federal Government, and I invite State and local governments and organizations, to participate actively in programs designed to promote better protection against accidential poisonings, particularly among children.

82 Stat. 1609

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventh day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

LULAC WEEK By the President of the United States of America

February 10, 1968

 A Proclamation

February 17 will mark the thirty-ninth anniversary of the founding of the League of United Latin American Citizens, popularly known as LULAC.

LULAC is a nonprofit, non political civic organization interested in the progress and advancement of Latin Americans in this country. Its dedicated members work with young Americans of Spanish-speaking background to:

—train them to become citizens. —provide them with educational opportunities. —promote the highest, standards of patriotism among them.

In recognition of these and other civic contributions of LULAC, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved February 10, 1968, has requested

Ante, p. 5.

the President to issue a proclamation designating the period February 11 through 17, 1968, as LULAC Week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week of February 11 through February 17, 1968, as LULAC Week, and I call upon the people of the United States to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

LAW DAY, U.S.A., 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 12, 1960

 A Proclamation

On May 1, we will observe Law Day, U.S.A.—the day set aside each year by Congress in recognition of the fundamental importance of the rule of law to our nation.

82 Stat. 1610

The law we recognize arid respect is not the mere exercise of power. It is not just a device to enforce the status quo. Law is a process of continuous growth that allows the creation of new rights for all men through a deliberative, democratic process. It is a system that permits existing rights to be protected, injustices to he remedied, and disputes to be resolved, without recourse to self-defeating violence.

That is the meaning of the theme of Law Day, 1968—“Only a lawful society can build a better society.”

I commend all those members of the bar, the bench and the law enforcement system who work to improve the performance of this system—to make it more just, more effective, and more responsive to our people’s needs.

America is grateful to them for their efforts to improve and extend legal services to the poor; to streamline the machinery of our courts; and to defend our society against crime and lawlessness.

I call upon every citizen to assist these efforts in his own community. I deem it the duty of each man and woman to honor the law, and to work within it and through it for civil order and social justice.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby request the observance of Wednesday, May 1, 1968, as Law Day in the United States of America.

I commend the organized bar for fostering the. annual observance of Law Day. I urge each citizen to join in that observance by making a personal commitment

—to obey the law —to respect the rights of others —to aid law-enforcement officers —to uphold the judgments of the courts.

As requested by the Congress, I suggest that our people observe Law Day with appropriate ceremonies and observances, through public bodies and private organizations, in schools and other suitable places; and I call upon public officials to display the nation’s flag on public buildings on that day.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twelfth day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

AMERICAN HISTORY MONTH, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 13, 1968

 A Proclamation

The-history of the United States is not a record of blind forces sweeping human beings relentlessly along to an unknown destiny. It is the story of countless individuals whose success and sacrifice converted an idea into a free nation.

82 Stat. 1611

The heritage of liberty we enjoy was brought by men and women who dared the unknown, who tamed the wilderness, and gave their lives on fields of battle.

We honor them by remembering their deeds—and by telling their story to each succeeding generation.

The study of American history reveals the experience of shared endeavor, hardship, joy, and triumph which binds us together as a nation. Understanding that experience can give us the wisdom and courage to meet our present trials—and unite us in the face of tomorrow’s challenges.

In recognition of this, the Congress by a joint resolution approved November 28, 1967, has designated February 1968 as American History

81 Stat. 517.

Month and has requested the President to issue a proclamation inviting the people of the United States to observe that month.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, invite the people of the United States to observe February 1968 as American History Month in schools and other suitable places with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand, tins thirteenth day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

NATIONAL FARM SAFETY WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 26, 1968

 A Proclamation

When our Nation was very young, a man wrested a living from the land as best he could. His tools were primitive, his productivity low. He was fortunate if he could feed his family and have a little left over to sell.

Today the technological revolution has made the American farmer food supplier to the world. His produce feeds his family, his neighbors, his countrymen, and thousands abroad. Yet that same revolution has brought unforeseen dangers. Modern farming is a complex and highly skilled profession. It is also a hazardous one.

Agriculture currently ranks third among our industries in accidental death rate. Thousands of farm residents are killed every year in accidents. More than 700,000 others are disabled. The cost to the Nation in dollars is almost $2 billion. The cost in anguish is incalculable.

This shameful waste must stop. It will stop when safety has become the conscious concern of all who work to produce America’s great agricultural abundance.

82 Stat. 1612

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby call on the people of the Nation to observe the week of July 21, 1968, as National Farm Safety Week. I urge all persons who live on farms, and those persons and groups serving or allied with agriculture, to intensify their individual efforts to curtail and halt accidents where and when possible at work, in homes, at recreation, and on public roads.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-sixth day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

SAVE YOUR VISION WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 27, 1968

 A Proclamation

Each year more than 30,000 Americans become blind. Early detection and proper treatment would prevent half of these tragedies.

Those who act in time can often protect the irreplaceable gift of eyesight. Eye examinations, beginning during preschool years and continuing periodically through life, can detect sight defects early enough for treatment.

For example, preschool checks can help prevent one-eye blindness from amblyopia later in life. Periodic examinations of adults can reveal elevated pressure within the eye soon enough to prevent blindness from glaucoma.

Every American should make, a habit of regular eye examinations. For persons who cannot secure proper vision care on their own, assistance is offered by public and private health agencies.

36 USC 169a.

To emphasize the importance of regular eye care, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved December 30, 1963 (77 Stat. 629), requested the President to issue annually a proclamation designating the first week in March of each year as Save Your Vision Week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning March 3, 1968, as Save Your Vision Week, and I invite the Governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and officials of other areas subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to issue similar proclamations.

I also call upon the communications media, the medical, optometric, and other health care professions, as well as all private and public agencies concerned with the improvement and preservation of sight, to join hr public activities that will impress upon all Americans the importance of maintaining good vision and of participating in programs to protect vision.

82 Stat. 1613

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-seventh day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

February 28, 1968

 A Proclamation

Each year more and more Americans go boating in their leisure hours. It we are to prevent, the needless loss of life mid property, this increasing traffic on our waterways must be accompanied by greater awareness of safe boating practices.

The principal agent, of boating accidents last year was a careless operator. The most common errors were overloading or improper loading of small boats—mistakes easily avoided by the boatowner who understands his boat, its machinery, and its operation.

An aggressive and comprehensive program of safety education—supported, where necessary, by law enforcement—can reduce the rate of boating accidents, and make boating what it should he: a purely pleasant recreation.

Recognizing the need for emphasis on boating safety, the Congress of the United States, by a joint resolution approved June 4, 1958 (72 Stat. 179), has requested the President to proclaim annually

36 USC 161.

the week which includes July I as National Safe Boating Week:

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week beginning June 30, 1988, as National Safe Boating Week.

I also invite the Governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and other areas subject to the jurisdiction of the United States to provide for the observance of this week.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, 1 have hereunto set my hand this 28th day of February, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

SENIOR CITIZENS MONTH, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 1, 1968

 A Proclamation

The respect we show for older Americans is not an act of charity. It comes from the recognition that this generation owes all it possesses to those who have borne responsibility in years past.

82 Stat. 1614

49 Stat. 620.

42 USC 1305.

We have not always recognized the debt we owe them. It was only three decades ago, with the passage of the original Social Security Act in President Roosevelt’s administration, that we first began to respond effectively to our continuing national obligation.

In recent years we have begun to make up this moral deficit:

—This year 24 million older Americans will receive the highest level of Social Security benefits in the history of the program-—-thanks to the 13 percent increase in benefits we passed last year. Ninety percent of our citizens aged 65 and over are now eligible for retirement benefits under Social Security. Millions of older people have been lifted out of conditions of poverty by increased Social Security benefits. Nearly every one of the 78 million wage earners working today has a future retirement protected by Social Security. —Through Medicare, adopted in 1965, we have at last guaranteed adequate health care to our older citizens—a minimal standard of civilization and decency which required 30 years to achieve. More than 10 million older Americans are now covered by Medicare. During its first year of operation—in fiscal 1967—it paid hospital bills for over 4 million people, and doctor bills for more than 7 million. And it is now providing home health services and other assistance for half a million more. —Since 1963, we have increased the quality and quantity of housing for our senior citizens. Today the Federal commitment in special housing programs for older citizens totals some $3 billion. —Under

79 Stat. 220;

81 Stat. 106,

42 USC 3002 note.

the Older Americans Act, passed in 1967, we have increased educational, recreational, and health services. Today that program includes 650 individual local projects reaching older people in their home communities across the land. —Demonstration projects are showing us how to make important advances in nutrition, education, transportation and leisure time Activities. We are steadily increasing the number of professionally trained individuals who work with and for the elderly. —We are increasing opportunities for our elder citizens to make use of their talents and experience. Today older Americans serve with great distinction in the VISTA, SCORE, the Foster Grandparent Program, the Peace Corps, and in many community projects and programs of voluntary agencies. —In 1967 we enacted long-overdue legislation which prohibits

81 Stat. 602.

29 USC 621 note.

 discrimination because of age in employment.

This is an extraordinary record of achievement in so short, a time. I am proud of it, us every American should be.

But we are still far from the day when we can be satisfied with our achievements. Our goal must be to give each man and woman the opportunity to make his years of retirement also years of accomplishment and meaning, good health and economic security.

Perhaps the greatest need of age is the need to know that one’s contributions are still valued. In a society where youth is so highly prized, older men and women need to know that their wisdom and experience are also important to their fellow citizens. Their contributions are one. of our nation’s most valuable assets—a resource that should be celebrated by every generation of Americans.

82 Stat. 1615

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the month of May 1968 as Senior Citizens Month.

I call upon the Federal, State and local governments, in partnership with private and voluntary organizations, to join in community efforts to give further meaning to the continuing theme of this special month: MEETING THE CHALLENGE OF THE LATER YEARS.

Let special emphasis this year be placed on making known the contributions that older Americans are making to our welfare. Let us demonstrate the greatness of our society by bringing new meaning and new vigor to the lives of our elders, who built the framework of our present prosperity and greatness.

I invite the Governors of the States, the Governor of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Commissioner of the District of Columbia, and appropriate officials in other areas subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, to join in the observance of Senior Citizens Month.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

NATIONAL DEFENSE TRANSPORTATION DAY AND NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 7, 1968

 A Proclamation

One hundred years ago, an American travelling from San Francisco to New York went by ship to Central America, crossed the Isthmus by mule and wagon, and four weeks later arrived at his destination.

One year later, with the completion of our first transcontinental railroad, he could travel in relative comfort from California to New York in ten days.

This revolution in transportation was one of the principal causes and opportunities for the rapid progress of our Nation—the taming of a vast continent with a rapidity which astounded the countries of Europe and continues to amaze historians.

The history of our country cannot be separated from the story of our transportation—nor can its future. We look today to the leaders of our transportation industry for the imagination and enterprise which, in the past, did so much to make our Nation great.

While the Government of the United States must continue to play a key partnership role in the improvement and expansion of our transportation system, basic decisions on investment and operation are made by private industry. This partnership between Government and industry forms one of the most critical elements of our economic system.

82 Stat. 1616

This partnership will be called upon in the future to meet even greater challenges than ever before.

To call public attention to the contributions of this great industry—

36 USC 160.

and to the challenges it faces—the Congress, by a joint resolution approved May 16, 1957 (71 Stat. 30), has requested the President to proclaim annually the third Friday of May of each year as National Defense Transportation Day, and by a joint resolution approved

36 USC 166.

May 14, 1962 (76 Stat. 69), has requested the President to proclaim annually the week of May in which that Friday falls as National Transportation Week, as a tribute to the men and women who, night and day, move our goods and our people throughout the land and around the world.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Friday, May 17, 1968, as National Defense Transportation Day, and the week beginning May 12, 1968, as National Transportation Week.

I urge our people to participate with representatives of the transportation industry, our armed services, and other governmental agencies in the observance of these occasions through appropriate ceremonies.

I also invite the Governors of the States to provide for the observance of National Defense Transportation Day and National Transportation Week in a way that will give the citizens of each community the opportunity to recognize and appreciate fully the vital role our great and modern transportation system plays in their lives and in the defense of the Nation.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventh day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

SMALL BUSINESS WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 8, 1968

 A Proclamation

Today the United States possesses the strongest, most dynamic economy in man’s history—an economy created by wise use of the system of free, competitive enterprise.

Throughout the development of our dynamic marketplace., the small businesses of America have been the building blocks of our economic structure. The creative abilities and diversified commercial efforts of small businessmen have fostered the innovative genius that has always been the hallmark of American economic progress.

Today there are more than five million small businesses in the United States, supplying many of the goods and services of our communities while providing a variety’ of job opportunities to local citizens. Perhaps even more important, small business continues to 82 Stat. 1617offer the citizen who has the talent, the will—and the chance—a means of fulfilling his dream of taking a meaningful, productive role in our national life.

Your Government has recognized the importance of each of these (Contributions of the small businessman, and through the Small Business Administration:

—offers counsel and economic assistance to owners of small businesses; —provides financial assistance and guarantees rental payments to energetic citizens seeking to bring more business and more jobs into poverty-locked ghettoes; —aids small firms in competing for government contracts; —seeks ways of protecting small firms against criminal acts.

These programs, as expanded by the Small Business Act Amendments I signed last fall, help insure that small business will continue

81 Stat. 268.

15 USC 633 note.

to provide a reservoir of economic opportunities for our nation. It is appropriate that all citizens share in an expression of our national appreciation of the present, and the historic, contributions of the small businessman to our economic development.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON. President, of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week beginning May 12, 1968 as Small Business Week, and I urge industrial and commercial organizations, chambers of commerce, boards of trade, and other public and private organizations to participate in ceremonies recognizing the significant contributions, past and present, of small business to our land, our culture, and our ideals.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighth day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

CANCER CONTROL MONTH, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 19, 1968

 A Proclamation

This year, more than 900,000 Americans will be treated for cancer, and more than 300,000 will die.

Medical science will save 200,000 cancer patients in 1968. But another 100,000 persons, who might have been saved by earlier treatment using the skills we now possess, will be lost.

Cancer continues to be our second deadliest disease—and the affliction people fear more than any other.

82 Stat. 1618

Progress against so formidable, an enemy has been slow, but significant. Our research has led to many encouraging achievements:

—The survival of many children with acute leukemia for periods of two to three years, and in some instances five or more years, gives us renewed hope that this terrifying disease can he conquered. —More than 50 percent of patients treated with intensive doses of X-ray for localized Hodgkins disease have been cured. —New techniques, involving the concentration of drugs in brain tumors, have stimulated the search for better drugs to treat these cancers. —Malignant tumors of the eye have been cured in many patients by combined radiation, surgery, and drug treatment, without loss of useful vision.

The incidence and death rates for cancer, however, continue to increase. We must redouble our support of the scientists, physicians, and health agencies who are battling this malignant public enemy.

36 USC 150.

To impress upon our people the urgency of the cancer problem, a joint resolution of Congress adopted March. 28, 1938 (52 Stat. 148), requested the President to issue annually a proclamation setting aside the month of April as Cancer Control Month.

ACCORDINGLY, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the month of April 1968 as Cancer Control Mouth; and I invite the Governors of the States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and other areas subject, to the jurisdiction of the United States to issue similar proclamations.

I also ask the medical and allied health professions, the communications industries, and sill other interested persons and groups to unite during the appointed month in public reaffirmation of the Nation’s efforts to control cancer.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this nineteenth day of March, in the year of our-Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.
3837 March 27, 1968 WORLD TRADE WEEK, 1968 Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America Proclamation Proclamation 3837
WORLD TRADE WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 27, 1968

 A Proclamation

A new era of world trade is opening. The challenges are great—the opportunities unlimited.

The United States must meet the challenges, and seize the opportunities to increase our economic growth and the well-being of our citizens.

82 Stat. 1619

The United States also has heavy responsibilities in preserving a favorable trade balance and maintaining the soundness of the free world monetary system. The United States dollar is, at present, the cornerstone of that system. Its strength abroad depends on keeping our foreign earnings and spending in reasonable balance.

In recent years our outflow of dollars has far exceeded the inflow, and we have a dangerous deficit in our international accounts. This situation cannot be allowed to continue.

That, is why we have taken action this year to bring our balance of payments closer to equilibrium. The measures we have undertaken will insure the continued strength of the dollar.

An essential element of this program is the expansion of our exports of goods and services to bring in more dollars.

Last year saw new records in United States trade. We exported $31 billion worth of our merchandise, $3 billion more than (he year before. We also provided the greatest market ever for the products of other nations, importing $27 billion worth of goods.

But we must sell even more overseas. The great success of the Kennedy Round of tariff negotiations offers us this opportunity.

The fruits of the Kennedy Round, which produced the broadest reduction in import duties in history, will be vast new trading opportunities for the United States and for other countries.

The tariff concessions cover $40 billion in world trade. Other countries granted the United States concessions on some $8 billion of our industrial and agricultural products—more than one-fourth of our total exports. We reduced duties on about the same volume of our imports. The United States and other major trading nations put the first stage of these reductions into effect this year.

If we are to take advantage of these new opportunities to increase our sales abroad, we must do everything possible to make our goods better and less expensive and to make them available in foreign markets.

We must make every effort to insure stable prices in order to meet foreign competition at home and abroad.

Our success depends on the prompt enactment of legislation now before the Congress. First and foremost, the penny-on-a-dollar tax bill is the key element in our prudent program to restrain inflation and strengthen our competitive position in world markets. My recommendations to strengthen the financing of our exports and the promotion of our sales abroad are also vital to the long-run improvement we can and will achieve.

World trade joins nations in economic progress. It creates more jobs, encourages investments, and raises family incomes. It makes more consumer goods available and at lower prices. It allows nations to make more productive use of their manpower and machines.

The gains won at Geneva last summer moved the world closer to the healthy trading conditions on which the prosperity of many nations depends.

We look forward, too, to increasing trade in peaceful goods and technology with the Soviet Union and other Eastern European nations as a positive contribution to mutual trust, fruitful cooperation, and lasting peace.

82 Stat. 1620

Our objective must be to take advantage of the new trading opportunities to sell our goods abroad.

In 1968, World Trade Week has greater significance than ever before.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning May 19, 1968, as World Trade Week; and I request the appropriate Federal, State, and local officials to cooperate in the observance of that week.

I also urge business, labor, agricultural, educational, professional, and civic groups, as well as the people of the United States generally, to observe World Trade Week with gatherings, discussions, exhibits, ceremonies, and other appropriate activities designed to promote continuing awareness of the importance of world trade to our economy and our relations with other nations.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-seventh day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

NATIONAL SCHOOL SAFETY PATROL WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

March 21, 1968

 A Proclamation

For nearly fifty years, voluntary school safety patrols have performed a distinguished service to other children going to and from school. The volunteer patrol has not only safeguarded countless young lives; it has, by example, taught obedience to traffic laws and the observance of safe pedestrian practices.

During this period of almost half a century, more than sixteen million youngsters have given freely of their time that their fellow students might walk to school safely.

With the encouragement and assistance of the schools, parent-teacher associations, police and traffic engineers, motor clubs, and others, the School Safety Patrol Program has helped bring about a significant improvement in the traffic death and injury rates of school children.

To give well-earned recognition to the accomplishments and efforts of school safety patrols, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved

Ante, p. 69.

March 29, 1968, has designated the second Week of May of 1968 as National School Safety Patrol Week, and has requested the President to issue a proclamation calling for its observance.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby call upon the people of the United States to observe the week of May 5 to 11, 1968, as National 82 Stat. 1621School Safety Patrol Week, with ceremonies and activities designed to give honor and recognition to school patrols. I urge that the future success of the patrol program be assured by the continuing support, of the general public.

April 5, 1968

 A Proclamation

TO THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES:

The heart of America grieves today. A leader of his people—a teacher of all people—has fallen.

Martin Luther King, Jr., has been struck down by the violence against which he preached and worked.

Yet the cause for which he struggled has not fallen. The voice that called for justice and brotherhood has been stilled—but the quest for freedom, to which he gave eloquent expression, continues.

Men of ail races, all religions, all regions must join together in this hour to deny violence its victory—and to fulfill the vision of brotherhood that gave purpose to Martin Luther King’s life and works.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States, do call upon all Americans to observe Sunday next, the seventh day of April, as a day of national mourning throughout the United States. In our churches, in our homes, and in our private hearts, let us resolve before God to stand against divisiveness in our country and all its consequences.

I direct that until interment the Hag of (he United States shall be flown at half-staff on all buildings, grounds and naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and possessions.

I also direct that the flag shall be flown at half-stall for the same length of time at all United States embassies, legations, consular offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.

NATIONAL JEWISH HOSPITAL SAVE YOUR BREATH MONTH By the President of the United States of America

April 8, 1968

 A Proclamation

Most of us never think about how we breathe. Those who have never fought, for air take breathing for granted. Yet increasing numbers of Americans every year face the prospect of a chronic chest or lung disease that can turn this normally easy act into a struggle for life.

An estimated 10 million Americans are afflicted by emphysema, asthma, and other crippling respiratory ailments. These chronic diseases combine to rank tenth on the list of the Nation’s killers. Almost a third of the deaths that occur among our infants under one year old are caused by a respiratory disease—often within the first 28 days of life.

Twenty years ago, 2,300 people died in one year from emphysema and chronic bronchitis. In 1965, the number was more than ten times as high: unless this rate is checked, it is estimated that the number this year will exceed 40,000.

Emphysema attacks its victims in the prime of life and removes experienced and productive workers from the Nation’s labor force. In a year, as many as 19,000 new emphysema victims are so badly disabled as to become eligible for disability insurance benefits under our Social Security programs—$90 million in disability benefits are paid annually to those who have been afflicted by this disease.

More than 5 million Americans are suffering from asthma. It kills several thousands of us every year.

The National Jewish Hospital in Denver, Colorado, has led the Nation in the care and treatment of those afflicted by chronic respiratory diseases. It has helped focus our attention on the need for research and specialized facilities for those who suffer from these afflictions.

The need for research is urgent. Our United States Public Health Service is working diligently to solve some of the tragic riddles of chest and lung disease. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is a leader in this research. Many private facilities are deeply involved in this work with the help of public and private, grants.

The need for more treatment and rehabilitation facilities also is urgent. The National Center for Chronic Disease Control, for instance, is developing treatment methods capable of restoring a considerable measure of self-sufficiency to those who have been rendered nearly helpless because of shortness of breath brought on by severely advanced emphysema. These rehabilitation techniques are in need of nationwide application.

In order to emphasize the major public health problem presented by chronic respiratory diseases, the Congress, by a joint resolution

approved April 5, 1968, has requested the President to issue a Proclamation designating April 1968 as National Jewish Hospital Save Your Breath Month.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the month of April 1968 as National Jewish Hospital Save Your Breath Month, and I urge the people of the United States to learn the danger signs of chronic respiratory diseases, to seek prompt medical help, and to observe appropriate medical safeguards for their respiratory health.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighth day of April, in the year of our Lord ninteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

April 8, 1968

 A Proclamation

A year ago, the Presidents of the American Republics and the Prime Minister or Trinidad and Tobago met at Punta del Este—to chart the course of the Alliance for Progress for the next “Decade of Urgency”.

They proclaimed “their decision to achieve to the fullest measure the free, just, and democratic social order demanded by the peoples of the Hemisphere”.

This demand calls for revolutionary change—within a democratic framework—of economic, social and political institutions to permit the full participation of the people in all aspects of national life.

In affirming their dedication to such change the Presidents at Punta del Este said:

“We will modernize the living conditions of our rural populations, raise agricultural productivity in general, and increase food production for the benefit of both Latin America and the rest of the world.

“We will vigorously promote education for development.

“We will harness science and technology for the service of our peoples.

“We will expand programs for improving the health of the American peoples.

“We will lay the physical foundations for Latin American economic integration through multinational projects.

“Latin America will create a common market.

“We will join in efforts to increase substantially Latin American foreign-trade earnings.

“Latin America will eliminate unnecessary military expenditures.”

We have been true to these resolves:

—The Inter-American Cultural Council has approved a program and Special Fund to modernize teaching methods in Latin82 Stat. 1626America, and to forge regional cooperation in science and technology for development. —Food production in Latin America during 1967 showed an overall increase of 6 percent over 1966. —The

14 UST 1911.

International Coffee Agreement, further strengthened by the creation of a Coffee Diversification Fund, holds the promise of protection against disastrous price fluctuations. —Additional resources for the Inter-American Development Bank and the Central American Bank for Economic Integration has enabled these institutions to finance more roads, power projects and telecommunications to draw the people of Latin America closer together. —With the organization of the Andean Development Corporation, the Governments of Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Venezuela have taken an important step toward a common market for all of Latin America. —The Central American Common Market and the Latin American Free Trade Area have established a consultative mechanism looking toward gradual combination of the two trading areas into the Latin American Common Market. —The Inter-American Export Promotion Center, by stimulating the sale of Latin American manufactured products, will increase foreign-trade earnings and thus provide more jobs and higher income for more people.

These and other dynamic advances tell the story of common action to make the promise of a better life a reality for more people—in more jobs, increased educational opportunities, higher income, expanding food supplies, fuller participation in the political process, and greater human dignity.

The promise of the Americas is to establish in this Hemisphere societies free from the fear of want, ignorance, prejudice and disease. We know’ from what 450 million Americans have accomplished to date that this vision is within the reach of our generation. To make it a reality, we must rededicate our energies, our skills and our commitments to the process of peaceful—but revolutionary—change.

So I ask the people of the United States to ally themselves firmly with their Government in these crucial years, and to become active partners and participants in the continuing fulfillment of the historic pledge of Punta del Este to the Hemisphere that is our home.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Sunday, April 14, 1968, as Pan American Day, and the week beginning April 14 and ending April 20 as Pan American Week; and I call upon the Governors of the fifty States of the Union, the Governor of the Common wealth of Puerto Rico, and the officials of all other areas under the flag of the United States to issue similar proclamations.

Further, I call upon this Nation to rededicate itself to the fundamental goal of the inter-American system, embodied in the Charter of the

2 UST 2394.

Organization of American States, the Charter of Punta del Este, and the Declaration of American Presidents: social justice and economic progress within the framework of individual freedom and political liberty.

Ten years ago, Congress set aside May 1st of every year as

36 USC 162.

Loyalty Day—a time for all Americans to reaffirm their devotion to our national ideals.

This year Loyalty Day comes at a time when the most cherished beliefs of our Nation are being put to stern tests. It is a time when all of us should think deeply upon our principles, reaffirm their essential integrity, and bear witness to them in our lives.

We believe in freedom. So loyally let us act to make men free.

We believe in peace. So let us pursue it along every road of honor.

We believe in equality. So let us do what we must to assure it for all.

We believe in justice. So let us revere and uphold the law upon which justice rests.

Moreover, we believe these principles are compatible. Freedom need not be sacrificed for peace, nor equality sought at the expense of justice.

Yet their achievement is not easy. It. will come only if we are a people so united in our beliefs that we are not divided in our loyalties.

On Loyalty Day, 1968, every American should pause to look within himself and put a measure to the depths of his beliefs. Then let us act upon them, a free and united people, loyal as always to our heritage as Americans.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do call upon the people of the United States, and upon all patriotic, civic, and educational organizations, to observe Wednesday, May 1, 1968, as Loyalty Day, with appropriate ceremonies in which all of us may join in a reaffirmation of our loyalty to the United States of America.

I also call upon appropriate officials of the Government to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on that day as a manifestation of our loyalty to the Nation which that, flag symbolizes.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eighth day of April, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

WHITE CANE SAFETY DAY, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

April 22, 1968

 A Proclamation

“Mobility” is a precious word to the sightless. The blind person who can move about with ease and confidence has access to people and places that immeasurably stretch his horizons and broaden his experience. With his energies freed, his imagination, too, can soar. Often the key to this mobility is a simple White Cane.

The White Cane enables the visually deprived to overcome his handicap and conquer his environment. With the White Cane, he can detect steps, obstacles, and dangers which bar his way. When he has mastered the special technique required for traveling with a cane, he can make his way without assistance to his job or other destination with remarkable confidence and speed.

Yet the blind person making his way alone over today’s hazardous streets requires confidence, not only in his own skill and judgment, but also in his fellow citizens. To every blind person walking with the aid of a White Cane, any moving object or person is a potential threat to his safety. To proceed with confidence, the blind pedestrian must know that those about him will understand the meaning of his cane and will yield the right-of-way.

So that Americans—and especially motorists—may more fully appreciate the significance of the White Cane, and the need to exercise caution and courtesy when approaching persons carrying a White Cane, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved October 6, 1964

36 USC 169d.

(78 Stat, 1003), has requested that the President proclaim October 15 of each year as White Cane Safety Day.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim October 15, 1968 as White Cane Safety Day.

I call upon all our citizens to join in this observance, that blind persons in our society may continue to enjoy the greatest possible measure of personal independence.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 22nd day of April, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

April 22, 1968

 A Proclamation

To sustain our Nation’s strength through trade and to fulfill our international commitments throughout the world, we rely heavily on the men and ships of the American Merchant Marine.

82 Stat. 1629

Our merchant ships are an essential part of the transportation bridges that extend from communities in America to those in Europe and Asia—and to our servicemen and women wherever they stand in freedom’s defense.

They have carried more than 20 million tons of food, weapons, and supplies to our fighting men in Vietnam.

Last year alone, they delivered about 4 million tons of wheat to our friends in need in foreign lands.

In the same year, they transported 12 million tons of our products to our trading partners abroad—and returned with 10 million tons of their goods for our people’s use.

America’s present position as the world’s greatest trading power grows from its early tradition, when a strong merchant fleet carried the commerce of a young nation to the seaports of the old world.

The imagination, daring and farsightedness of that fleet was exemplified by the SS Savannah, which in 1819 became the first steamship to cross the Atlantic.

It is in honor of that historic voyage that the Congress in 1933 designated May 22 as National Maritime Day and requested the President

48 Stat. 73.

36 USC 145.

to issue a proclamation annually in observance of that day, to remind Americans of the importance of the merchant fleet to our national life.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby urge the people of the United States to honor our American Merchant Marine on Wednesday, May 22, 1968, by displaying the flag of the United States at their homes and other suitable places, and I request that all ships sailing under the American flag dress ship on that day in tribute to the American Merchant Marine.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 22nd day of April, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

The hope, the courage, and the faith that guide us through all our lives are priceless gifts that go back in time beyond our first recollections. They were given us by our mothers and enriched with each passing year.

To the extent that each of us makes use of these gifts, our adult lives will reflect our faith, our compassion, and our strength to meet our problems and obligations, and to deal with them wisely and justly in the finest traditions of our national character. Thus the training and love that we receive from our mothers play mighty roles in determining the quality of our adult lives—individually, and as a Nation.

82 Stat. 1630

Once each year, our Nation sets aside a special day to pay tribute to our mothers. This day, pursuant to a joint resolution of the Congress

38 Stat. 771.

36 USC 142.

approved on May 8, 1914, falls each year on the second Sunday of May.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby request that Sunday, May 12, 1968, be observed as Mother’s Day, and I direct the appropriate officials of the Government to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on that day.

Let us pay a special tribute to those courageous mothers of our gallant fighting men on the battlefields of Vietnam. Let us honor both mother and son for their personal commitment to honor and duty that reflects the Nation’s dedication to a search for a lasting peace.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 29th day of April, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

Oil Memorial Day, we remember our debt to those who have died so that we might live in freedom.

We remember also those Americans who today, at home and in the lands of our allies, stand guard against all who threaten our freedom.

On this Memorial Day, we who remain free by the sacrifice of the dead and the service of Hie living will requite our debt to both with thoughts and acts of gratitude and love.

And we will gain renewed inspiration from their sacrifice—to push forward with the task of trying to bring about a just and enduring peace by every reasonable means.

The Congress, by joint resolution of May 11, 1950 ( 64 Stat. 158), has requested the President to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the United States to observe each Memorial Day as a day of prayer for permanent peace and designating a period during such day when the people of the United States might unite in such supplication.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Memorial Day, Thursday, May 30, 1968, as a day of prayer for permanent peace, and I designate the hour beginning in each locality at eleven o’clock in the morning of that day as a time to unite in such prayer.

I urge the press, radio, television, and ail other information media to cooperate m this observance.

And 1 urge all Americans, wherever they may be on this designated day, to join their prayers to the Almighty to bestow upon this Nation the blessing of peace restored and lasting among all the nations of the world.

On this Memorial Day—as a special mark of respect to the memory of the gallant Americans who have sacrificed their lives in Vietnam, so that this Nation might live to be for all people everywhere a symbol of peace and justice and freedom—I direct that the flag of the United States be flown at half-staff during the entire day, instead of during the customary forenoon period, on all buildings, grounds, and naval vessels of the Federal Government throughout the United States and all areas under its jurisdiction and control.

I also request the Governors of the States and of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the appropriate officials of all local units of government to direct that the nag be flown at half-staff on all public buildings during that entire day, and request the people of the United States to display the flag at half-staff from their homes for the same period.

May 17, 1968

 A Proclamation

15 Stat. 667.

The Navajo Indian Tribe of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah signed a final peace treaty with the United States in 1868. This treaty, signed by 29 Navajo headmen and 10 officers of the United States Army on June 1, 1868, officially recognized the sovereignty of the Navajo Tribe.

This treaty was ratified by the Senate of the United States on July 23, 1868, and was proclaimed by President Andrew Johnson on August 12, 1868.

The terms of the treaty and its mutual acceptance brought to an end a tragic four-year period of suffering, hardship, deprivation, and exile of the Navajo Tribe from its usual tribal area to detention at Fort Sumner, New Mexico, on the banks of the Pecos River.

This is the centennial year of the signing, ratification, and proclaiming of the 1868 treaty. In the intervening 100 years, the number of Navajos has increased from about 8,350 to more than 100,000. And, contrary to the general trend toward reduction of tribal land holdings, the Navajo lands have increased from about 3.5 million acres in 1868 to about 12 million acres. The tribe is now the Nation’s largest in number and resides on the largest reservation.

The tribe’s forest industries, oil and mineral wealth, agriculture, arts and crafts, and the recent welcome to the reservation of nationally known manufacturing firms, make the Navajos an outstanding example of a people who have moved with the new century while still holding fast to their Indian identity, ancient beliefs, and creeds.

I recited the progress of the Navajos earlier this year when I spoke by telephone to Indian leaders and supporters gathered at a dinner in Gallup, New Mexico, formally launching observance of the Navajo centennial year.

Last month I mentioned progress of the Navajos in the message I sent to the Congress on the Indian American—the Forgotten American.

Now, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved May 17, 1968, has requested the President to designate the calendar year 1968 as the

Ante, p. 123,

centennial of the signing of the peace treaty of 1868. I am happy to honor this request.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the year 1968 as the 82 Stat. 1633centennial of the signing of the 1868 Treaty of Peace between the Navajo Indian Tribe and the United States; and I call upon the Governors of the States, mayors of cities, and other public officials, as well as other interested persons, organizations, and groups to observe this centennial year of a progressive tribe of Indian Americans with appropriate celebrations and ceremonies.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventeenth day of May, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-second.

CITIZENSHIP DAY AND CONSTITUTION WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

June 1, 1968

 A Proclamation

On September 17, 1787, the Founding Fathers signed the United States Constitution—the charter of a government founded upon the will of the governed, and consecrated to the preservation of freedom, equality, and justice.

For 181 years, our constitutional government has remained strong and vigorous in the protection and advancement of our fundamental rights and privileges.

We have received a magnificent heritage: a heritage of law and freedom, of order and liberty. To our generation, as to all others in the nearly two centuries of the American past, falls the task of guarding that heritage for ourselves and those who will follow us.

If we seek to suppress individual rights in the quest for order, we shall betray our democratic heritage.

If we confuse individual rights with license, we shall leave a disordered land to later Americans, a land where the rights of no one can be truly secure.

Our Constitution, as it has developed through amendment and interpretation over 181 years, is a powerful star by whose light we chart the course of order and liberty.

The Congress has wisely made provision for an annual rededication to the principles and ideals of the Constitution. By a joint resolution of February 29, 1952 (66 Stat. 9), the Congress designated the seventeenth

36 USC 153.

day of September of each year as Citizenship Day, not only to commemorate the signing of the Constitution on September 17, 1787, but also to honor those citizens who came of age or were naturalized during the year. By a resolution of August 2, 1956 (70 Stat. 932), the

36 USC 159.

Congress requested the President to designate the week beginning September 17 of each year as Constitution Week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, call upon the appropriate officials of the Government to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on Citizenship Day, September 17, 1968. I urge, Fed-82 Stat. 1634oral, State, and local officials, as well as all religious, civic, educational, and other interested organizations, to arrange meaningful ceremonies on that day to inspire all our citizens to pledge themselves anew to the service of their country and to the support and defense of the Constitution.

I also designate the period beginning September 17 and ending September 23, 1968, as Constitution Week: and I urge the people of the United States to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities in their schools mid churches, and in other suitable places, to the end that they may have a better understanding of the Constitution and of the rights and responsibilities of United States citizenship.

A noble and compassionate leader, a good and faithful servant, of the people, in the full vigor of his promise, lies dead from an assassin’s bullet.

The tragedy and the senseless violence of Robert F. Kennedy’s death casts a deep shadow of grief across America and across the world.

This is a moment for all Americans to join hands and walk together through this dark night of common anguish into a new dawn of healing unity.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B.

In our churches, in our homes, and in our hearts let us resolve before God and before each other that the purpose of progress and justice for which Robert F. Kennedy lived shall endure.

I direct that until interment the flag of the United States shall be flown at half-staff on all buildings, grounds and naval vessels of the Federal Government in the District of Columbia and throughout the United States and its Territories and possessions.

I also direct that the flag shall be. flown at half-staff for the same length of time at all United States embassies, legations, consular offices, and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and naval vessels and stations.

On June 14, 1777, in Philadelphia, the Continental Congress raised a symbol of hope and freedom for our infant Nation. It resolved that our flag should be a banner of thirteen alternating red and white stripes, with thirteen white stars in a field of blue.

The United States flag has become an inspiration not to one people alone, but to millions abroad who seek justice and equality.

It flies above a land, and rep resents a people, blessed by fortune and labor to know prosperity and promise beyond any in the history of man.

Yet it has too often been carried into battle, or lowered to mark tragedy.

It is our tusk to work toward the day when it may be raised above a land in peace, a land of genuine equality and dignity, a land of justice under law—a land where neither violence nor oppression holds sway.

We should revere our flag, and the dream it represents. And we should re-dedicate ourselves to achieving that just and peaceful America over which it may proudly wave.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week beginning June 9, 1968, as National Flag Week. 1 direct the appropriate Government officials to display the flag on all Government buildings during the week.

FAMILY REUNION DAY By the President of the United States of America

July 18, 1968

 A Proclamation

Since the founding of the Republic, the American family has been a source of individual strength and national stability.

These are times, however, that test the unity of family life. Progress—social, economic, and technological—has brought with it new mobility that tends to separate the members of affluent families.

For millions of other Americans, poverty, discrimination and the spiritual deprivation of shim life have strained the cohesion of family units past the, breaking point. Many young people are growing up without the shaping example of a. firm, responsible, and caring male in the household. There are strengths within almost all families, whether or not headed by a father; but history and instinct tell us that a society that does not encourage responsible fatherhood will pay for its failure in later generations. For that reason, action to extend job opportunities, to improve education and housing, and to end discrimination in all its forms is vital to stronger family life—and ultimately to a more just and peaceful nation.

82 Stat. 1640

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, pursuant to Senate Joint Resolution 165, do hereby designate Sunday, August 11, 1968, as Family Reunion

 A Proclamation

Few men in history have contributed as much to their country and to the world as has General Dwight David Eisenhower.

As Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Forces in World War II, his leadership, resolution, and personal courage guided us to victory and to peace.

Following World War II, he served as the first Supreme Allied Commander of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization forces in Europe, and demonstrated an unrivaled capacity to create a united military organization.

During eight years as President of the United States, he enhanced his reputation as a leader of nations; a program of lasting international cooperation was inaugurated in his administration.

General Eisenhower is recognized as one of the most popular and respected living Americans—admired and loved by his fellowmen not only as an outstanding military leader and statesman, but also as one whose character and high principles serve as a standard for all citizens.

It is fitting that on the occasion of General Eisenhower’s 78th birthday on October 14, 1968, we pay tribute to this great American. To

this end, the Congress, by a joint resolution approved July 18, 1968, has requested the President to designate the week of October 13, 1968, as Salute to Eisenhower Week. It is my pleasure to do so.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week of October 13, 1968, as Salute to Eisenhower Week, and I call upon the people of the United States to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities.

Fire is the third largest cause of accidental death in America—and deaths from fire, increased again last year.

The cost of homes and businesses which went up in flames last year is estimated to exceed $2 billion.

These tragic deaths and huge property losses constitute a shameful waste—which can and must be reduced.

The Fire Research and Safety Act of 1968 was a first step toward

better trained and better equipped firefighters and modern firefighting techniques. But while such legislation can provide the technical know-how which will help to reduce our fire losses, fires can be prevented only when each citizen actively cooperates and earnestly supports the efforts of his community fire department.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week beginning October 6, 1968 as Fire Prevention Week.

I urge all groups involved in fire safety activities, such as the National Fire Protection Association, and State and local governments to observe Fire Prevention Week and to motivate all citizens toward year-round fire prevention activity.

I also direct the Federal Fire Council and all other Federal agencies to assist in this program so as to stop this shameful waste of lives and property caused by preventable fires.

There is scarcely a single field of human endeavor which has not been influenced in some way by photography. In addition to its traditional 82 Stat. 1642role as a chronicle of family history and personal remembrance, photography:

—documents and reports current events, at home and abroad, in war and peace. —assists scientists in such vital fields as astronomy, biology and physics, ocean exploration, and outer space. —serves commerce and industry in advertising and manufacturing. —contributes to the national security. —provides visual aids for general and specialized educational purposes. —aids law enforcement agencies by providing identification and fingerprint photographs.

More than 150,000 men and women are engaged as professional photographers in these various fields of endeavor. To recognize their contributions to our culture and to our economy, the Congress has

On October 11, 1779, Brigadier General Casimir Pulaski died from wounds received during the siege of Savannah, Georgia. His death ended a career of brilliant leadership and courage in the service of freedom and independence.

He was not born in the land he learned to love so well. As a young man in exile from his own country, Count Pulaski joined the Continental Army, was appointed a brigadier general and commander of cavalry, and distinguished himself in the battles of Brandywine and Germantown. He raised and commanded a corps known as the Pulaski Legion.

On November 29, 1779, the Continental Congress, in recognition of his service and sacrifice, resolved that a monument should be erected to this brave son of Poland.

82 Stat. 1643

On the one hundred and eighty-ninth anniversary of his death, it is fitting that we coinmemorate General Pulaski for his devotion to our Nation, as a continuing example to all men who strive toward the goals of freedom and justice.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America do hereby designate Friday, October 11, 1968, as General Pulaski’s Memorial Day; and I direct the appropriate Government officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on that day. I also invite the people of the United States to observe the day with appropriate ceremonies in schools, churches, and other suitable places.

AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

August 27, 1968

 A Proclamation

Education—universal, equal, and excellent—is a goal which we have cherished since our country’s birth.

In the last decade, however, we have sought to fulfill this goal with greater zeal, greater commitment, and gi’eater success than at any period in our history.

We began with new laws, creating the legal authority to translate our vision of educational opportunity into reality. This year we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the first great new Federal education law, the National Defense Education Act.

72 Stat. 1580.

20 USC 401 note.

This historic law—and dozens which have followed it—has already had a profound effect on American life, and has increased immeasurably our most precious resource: the knowledge and understanding of our people.

To encourage and strengthen America’s national fervor for education and to broaden support for America’s schools and colleges, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the period of November 10 through November 16, 1968, as American Education Week.

It is my deep conviction that our noblest national task is to lead each citizen to fulfill his own potential. In the belief that our national strength derives from the strength of individual citizens, I call upon every American to work toward an even better educational system in America—a system which will truly deepen and enrich American thought, and truly ennoble life for every man.

“STAY IN SCHOOL” By the President of the United States of America

August 30, 1968

 A Proclamation

We can be proud that the percentage of school-aged children dropping out of school has decreased steadily in recent years. But too many children still do not complete their high school education. This year, an estimated 800,000 youth will not return to their high school classrooms in the fall.

A high school education is no guarantee of success. But it is an important first step on the road to a fuller life. Unfortunately, those who are most economically disadvantaged are most likely to drop out of school. By doing so they cripple their capacity for escaping the cycle of poverty. The future of the nation itself is mortgaged to higher welfare and dependency costs—and to costly remedial measures that must repair the damage of early failures to Stay in school.

While those who abandon their classrooms have much in common, their reasons for leaving are very individual. Our response must be equally personal. A parent, a teacher, a friend, a volunteer, can make all the difference to a lonely or frustrated young person. Schools themselves must make every effort to encourage regular attendance—by making the classroom experience as relevant and interesting to their students as possible.

To emphasize the importance of this task, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim a national “Stay in School” campaign.

I call upon the American people to make this campaign successful by ensuring that the schools in their communities are responsive to the needs of all their young people.

I ask young and old alike to participate personally in this campaign through their schools, their organizations, their local governments.

Whenever any one of us is in a position to help a youngster to stay in school—through individual counsel, encouragement and assistance—I most earnestly urge him to do so.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this thirtieth day of August, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

NATIONAL SCHOOL LUNCH WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 5, 1968

 A Proclamation

A well-nourished, healthy, intelligent child is the most precious asset America can possess.

It is vitally important, therefore, that every American child be offered an adequate diet and taught good food habits, no matter where he lives, or how much or little his parents earn.

The National School Lunch Program is a major factor in achieving this goal. For 22 years this Program—a Federal-State-local activity—has helped millions of youngsters obtain low-cost, lunches at school. In the 1068-69 school year, nearly 20 million children are expected to benefit.

But many children still are seriously malnourished—because their families lack knowledge of a good diet or money to buy one. The consequences of malnourishment are often poor health and diminished intellectual powers.

To help prevent these human tragedies, the Nation will put still more money and manpower into teaching good nutrition and providing new and expanded food services for children. These services will include, more free or reduced-price lunches in needy areas, breakfasts at school for more children, and food services for children not yet in school or in day care centers.

In recognition of the value and achievements of the National School Lunch Program, the Congress, by a joint resolution of October 9, 1962

36 USC 168.

(76 Stat. 779), has designated the seven-day period beginning on the second Sunday of October in each year as National School Lunch Week, and has requested the President to issue annually a proclamation calling for the observance of that week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, call upon the people of the United States to observe the week beginning October 13, 1968, as National School Lunch Week, with ceremonies and activities designed to increase public understanding and awareness of the significance of the National School Lunch Program and other food service programs to the child, to the home, to the farm, to industry, and to the Nation.

NATIONAL HIGHWAY WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 11, 1968

 A Proclamation

In 1968, for the first time in our history, Americans will drive their cars and trucks more than one trillion miles in a single year.

Our highways give the American people a personal mobility unequaled in history. They permit more of our youth to get an education; they give workers greater opportunity for jobs; they are essential in providing goods and services; and they broaden opportunities for recreation.

While highways serve our economic and private needs, their planning and construction involve major social responsibilities. If highways are to benefit all the people, they must serve and enhance our total environment. Tins presents a challenge and an opportunity to officials at every level of government to see that highway development makes a positive contribution toward meeting both the transportation and the environmental needs of our people. In particular, we must assure fair treatment of those necessarily displaced by highway construction.

The Federal Government is concerned both with improving the quality of highway transportation and with achieving the social good that is implicit in the highway program.

We are striving to reduce the awful toll in death and injury on our highways by applying scientifically sound countermeasures.

We are working to improve the efficiency of the urban roads and streets we already have, as an alternative to expensive new construction.

We are focusing more attention on the overall interaction between highways and their environment, including the beauty of the roadsides.

In all these endeavors, we are working in partnership with State and local governments in the finest tradition of democratic government. The achievements of this partnership should be recognized by every American who benefits from them.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning September 22, 1968, as National Highway Week, and I urge Federal, State, and local officials, as well as highway industry and other organizations, to hold appropriate ceremonies during that week in recognition of what highway transportation means to our Nation.

NATIONAL FARM-CITY WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 12, 1968

 A Proclamation

The last third of the 20th century will add another 100 million Americans to today’s population. The quality and quantity of our resources in the 21st century will depend on how well we plan uses for our nation’s countryside, and how successfully we develop town and country economies.

Individual lives will be shaped, too, by whether our core cities are restored—and whether suburban growth is translated into durable and desirable forms of community development.

Our major tools for achieving these goals are:

—an agricultural capacity for abundance never before attained by any nation. —a vigorous economy with a gross national product this year of around 850 billion dollars, the largest in the world.

There is a third requirement, however, without which our economic strength cannot effectively transform our environment for the benefit of our people. It is our people’s will to do so-—to use our prosperity as an instrument of progressive change. Because of the need to generate increased interest in improving our environment and increasing opportunities for all Americans, 1, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate the week of November 22 through November 28, 1968, as National Farm-City Week, and I call upon citizens throughout the nation to participate in observance of that week.

I request that leaders of farmers’ organizations, business groups and labor unions, youth and women’s clubs, civic associations, and all consumers join in this observance to increase public appreciation of the strong interests shared by rural and urban Americans.

I urge the Department of Agriculture, land-grant colleges and universities, the cooperative extension service, and all appropriate Government officials to cooperate with national, state, and local organizations in carrying out programs to observe National Farm-City Week, including public meetings and exhibits, and press, radio, and television features.

I urge that such programs emphasize:

—the necessity for an all-out attack on the problems responsible for pockets of economic blight in both country and city; —the continuing need to improve our land planning and land-use practices to preserve unspoiled countryside and make the fullest use of our developed land; —the urgent need to curb pollution of land, water, and air on a national scale to safeguard our capacities to produce abundantly while maintaining an environment in which the products of society can be enjoyed by all Americans; —the importance of further strengthening the economy of the family farm; and —the fact that, assuring tomorrow’s food and fiber is a concern of every American today. 82 Stat. 1648

WORLD LAW DAY, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 14, 1963

 A Proclamation

The year 1968 has been designated by the United Nations as International Human Rights Year, and I have so proclaimed it for the United States.

In this country and in many other nations of the world substantial progress has been made in expanding human rights in practice, as well as in principle.

Yet even during this Human Rights Year, the world has witnessed—on several continents—a series of tragic acts that have denied human rights by aggression, terror, starvation, and other forms of coercion. The conscience of the world has been stunned by these acts. Men are beginning to understand that the rule of law and justice is imperative if nations are not to perish under a reign of force and violence.

More than ever it is essential that the minds of men in every nation be focused upon the necessity for world peace through law if mankind is to realize the hopes and aspirations enshrined in the United

59 Stat. 1031.

Nations Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

To that end, the World Conference on World Peace Through Law is meeting in Geneva this month. We hope and trust that the efforts of this eminent group of lawyers and judges will enhance the role of law and legal institutions—so that the means for peaceful settlement of disputes between men and nations may be achieved and accepted by all.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, believing that there should be set aside one day in Human Rights Year on which appropriate observance of the importance of the role of law to mankind’s search for world peace and universal respect for human rights can be publicly recognized, do hereby proclaim September 16, 1968, as World Law Day in the United States. I call upon all citizens of the United States all public and private officials, members of the legal profession, public and private organizations, and all men of good will to arrange public ceremonies on World Law Day in courts, schools and universities, and other public places in order that we may rededicate ourselves to fulfilling man’s need of international law for world peace.

 A Proclamation

It is with special pride that I call the attention of my fellow citizens to the great contribution to our national heritage made by our people of Hispanic descent—not only in the fields of culture, business, and science, but also through their valor in battle.

Several of our States and many of our cities proudly bear Hispanic names and continue Hispanic traditions that enrich our national life. The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico has given an example to the world by lifting the per capita income of its inhabitants through “Operation Bootstrap” from $256 to $1,047 in 10 years.

The people of Hispanic descent are the heirs of missionaries, captains, soldiers, and farmers who were motivated by a young spirit of adventure, and a desire to settle freely in a free land. This heritage is ours.

Wishing to pay special tribute to the Hispanic tradition, and having in mind the fact that our five Central American neighbors celebrate their Independence Day on the fifteenth of September and the Republic of Mexico on the sixteenth, the Congress, by House Joint Resolution 1299, has requested the President to issue annually a proclamation

NATIONAL EMPLOY THE PHYSICALLY HANDICAPPED WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 24, 1968

 A Proclamation

America’s program of rehabilitation has brightened the hopes and lives of millions of our citizens who are handicapped by chronic illness or disability.

82 Stat. 1654

As a result of advanced medical knowledge, expanded treatment centers, and ingenious prosthetic devices, wounded veterans and disabled workers, children with defects from birth, and young persons injured in accidents can look forward to useful, productive lives.

The ultimate enrichment of the lives of our handicapped is the opportunity to work. Since World War II, over seven million handicapped have been hired by private industry, and nearly a quarter million have been hired by the Federal Government.

While these accomplishments are impressive, the goal of a job for every disabled person who seeks one has not yet been reached.

—Thousands of blind persons are unemployed. —Many deaf men and women are in jobs far beneath their true capabilities. —Epileptics remain the victims of public misinformation and misconception. —Persons with cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, or muscular dystrophy have shockingly high unemployment, rates. —A disproportionate number of unemployed handicapped men and women are trapped in the urban slums and in the rural areas of our country.

The handicapped have come a long way. But all of us—and particularly those who have been spared crippling injury—must help in providing a still wider range of job opportunities for the handicapped.

36 USC 155.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, in accordance with the joint resolution of Congress approved August 11, 1945 (59 Stat. 530), designating the first full week of October of each year as National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week, do hereby call upon the people of our Nation to observe the week beginning October 6, 1968, fox such purpose.

During that week I urge all the Governors of States, mayors of cities, and other public officials, as well as leaders of industry, educational and religious groups, labor, civic, veterans’, agricultural, women’s, scientific, professional, and fraternal organizations, and all other interested organizations and individuals, including the handicapped themselves, to participate in this observance.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-fourth day of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

LEIF ERIKSON DAY, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

September 27, 1968

 A Proclamation

About one thousand years ago Leif Erikson and his band of Vikings sailed across the North Atlantic and landed on the shores of North America. These intrepid Norse seafarers had only crude navigational instruments, but they had an abundance of courage, energy, and perseverance.

82 Stat. 1655 These qualities continue to inspire millions of Americans who trace their ancestry to the countries of the Vikings.

At a time when man has embarked on new voyages of discovery in space and under the sea, it is especially appropriate that we recognize the epic story of the voyages of this great Norse hero.

I am honored to comply with the request, of the Congress of the United States, in a joint resolution approved September 2, 1964 (78 Stat. 849), that the President proclaim October 9 in each year as Leif

36 USC 169c.

Erikson Day.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Wednesday, October 9, 1968, as Leif Erikson Day; and I direct the appropriate Government officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on that day.

I also invite the people of the United States to honor the memory of Leif Erikson on that day by holding appropriate exercises and ceremonies in schools and churches, or other suitable places.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-seventh day of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

September 30, 1968

 A Proclamation

On October 12, we honor the memory of the great Italian navigator, Christopher Columbus, who sailed forth on uncharted seas in a voyage that was to change the history of the world.

The breadth of his imagination, the force of his determination, and the magnitude of his achievement have not dimmed with the passing of time.

We are all spiritual heirs of Christopher Columbus. His unbounded faith and courage are a part of the patrimony of every American.

In recognition of our debt to Columbus the Congress of the United States, by a joint resolution approved April 30, 1934 (48 Stat. 657),

36 USC 146.

requested the President to proclaim October 12 of each year as Columbus Day for the observance of the anniversary of the discovery of America.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Saturday, October 12, 1968, as Columbus Day; and I invite the people of this Nation to observe that day in schools, churches, and other suitable places with appropriate ceremonies in honor of the great explorer.

I also direct that the flag of the United States be displayed on all public buildings on the appointed day in memory of Christopher Columbus.

NATIONAL FOREST PRODUCTS WEEK, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

October 2, 1968

 A Proclamation

After nearly two centuries of our Nation’s growth and development, forests still cover one-third of the American earth.

This enormous natural resource contributes significantly to the economic well-being of our Nation, and to other, equally important benefits in the form of water conservation, forage, recreation, and natural beauty.

So that these benefits may be available in increasing quantities and greater quality, all of us should contribute wherever and whenever we can to the renewal and wise use of our forests.

The Congress, in order to re-emphasize the importance and heritage of our forest resources, has by a joint resolution of September 13, 1960

36 USC 163.

(74 Stat. 898), designated the seven-day period beginning on the third Sunday of October in each year as National Forest Products Week, and has requested the President to issue annually a proclamation calling for the observance of that week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby call upon the people of the United States to observe the week beginning October 20, 1968, as National Forest Products Week, with activities and ceremonies designed to direct public attention to the essential role that our forest resource plays in stimulating the advancement of our rural economy and the continued growth and prosperity of the entire Nation.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this second day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.
3875 October 3, 1968 NATIONAL FAMILY HEALTH WEEK Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America Proclamation Proclamation 3875
NATIONAL FAMILY HEALTH WEEK By the President of the United States of America

October 3, 1968

 A Proclamation

America’s unusual healthcare system, in which private and public agencies and organizations work together in common cause, has been a principal factor in insuring and improving the Nation’s health. This 82 Stat. 1657system has evolved over many years, changing and adapting to advances in research and technology and to a growing national commitment to good health for all.

Though a great deal remains to be done if that commitment is to be honored—especially among poor families—we have seen almost revolutionary progress in providing better health to most Americans during the past few years:

—The death rate among babies in their first year of life reached a new low of 22 deaths for every 1,000 live births last year—down 15 percent from 1960. —Boys and girls grow up today largely free from the threat of polio, measles, and other potentially crippling diseases of childhood. —One of every three cancer patients is saved today. —Twenty million older Americans are protected by Medicare; 8 million have already received hospital benefits from this program.

In the evolution of our health services system, there has remained one constant—the family physician. Today, as a century ago, he bears a unique responsibility. He continues to be the source of treatment and comfort when illness and accidents occur. He is also the crucial link today between the family and the highly specialized services of modern health science.

To further focus national attention upon the accomplishments of our health care system and the central role played by the family physician in the maintenance of superior medical care for all Americans, the Congress by House Joint Resolution 1404 has requested the President

Ante, p. 848.

to issue a proclamation designating the week of November 17 through 23, 1968, as National Family Health Week.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning November 17, 1968, as National Family Health Week. I call upon the people of the United States, the medical and health professions, and other interested organizations and groups to observe that week with appropriate ceremonies and activities,

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this third day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

CHILD HEALTH DAY, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

October 7, 1968

 A Proclamation

For most children in America, the future promises full, productive, healthy lives.

82 Stat. 1658

Over the years, American medicine, science, and social services have combined to create a society with fewer fatal and crippling diseases, a long life expectancy, better nutrition, and more fruitful opportunities for work and leisure.

Infant mortality has reached its lowest rate since we began to keep reliable records: It is 12 percent below its level five years ago.

Through vaccination programs, we have cut by one-half the number of children who suffer from polio, diphtheria, tetanus, and whooping cough. We are on the verge of eliminating measles totally.

Yet, far too many American children are born with only a dim prospect of sharing in America’s promise—because they are born into poverty. And today, 12 million Americans under 18 years old live in poverty.

We still rank only 15th among advanced nations in our effort to reduce infant deaths.

These are compelling reasons for paying special attention to unfinished business in child health.

We cannot allow one American child to be denied the benefits of our knowledge and common effort.

All of our children must have the opportunity to develop their abilities and talents to their fullest. This is their birthright, and we must protect it.

To demonstrate national concern for the well-being of our children, the Congress has directed the President to proclaim annually the first.

45 Stat. 617; 73 Stat. 627.

36 USC 143.

Monday in October as Child Health Day.

This day is also an appropriate time to salute the work which the United Nations, through its specialized agencies, and the United Nations Children’s Fund are doing to build better health for children around the world.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby designate Monday, October 7, 1968, as Child Health Day. I invite all persons, all agencies and organizations concerned for the welfare of the world’s children to unite on that day in actions that, will bring strength and recognition to efforts which foster better child health.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this seventh day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

October 10, 1968

 A Proclamation

The twentieth century is rightly regarded as the era of science and technology. Scientific achievements and technological advances 82 Stat. 1659have radically altered the conditions of life for most men on our planet. Relations between men, and between man and his environment, have been permanently changed by events that began in the scientific laboratory.

As a result of this revolution in knowledge, it has become possible for all men to be adequately fed, clothed, and sheltered; for new energy resources to be committed to man’s use: for information to be spread broadly and instantaneously to the remotest regions of the earth.

It has also become possible for man to destroy himself; for local aggression to be converted into global catastrophe; for misinformation and demagoguery to reach millions, and to shape their political destinies.

The scientific and technological revolution offers man unparalleled opportunities to liberate—or to enslave—his spirit. He can gain his freedom from physical want, and lose his identity in the prosperous streets of great cities. He can move his family to a healthier and more spacious environment, and lose the sense of community with his fellow men. He can free more hours for leisure activity, and find those hours empty and purposeless.

Thus his spirit lives in a state of crisis. In the midst of that crisis—as in days long ago, before “science and technology” were common words to his tongue—man cries out for meaning, for guidance, for assurance that his spirit is of value. In the midst of baffling change, he longs for enduring values. In the impersonal rush of his days, he seeks a sign that he is known, and accepted, as a unique person.

In this era of science and technology, we have set aside a day of prayer. Let us use it to thank God for the blessings of human industry and ingenuity, and to seek His strength, His love, and His guidance in the crisis of our spirit.

The Congress, by a joint resolution of April 17, 1952, provided that

66 Stat. 64.

36 USC 185.

the President “shall set aside and proclaim a suitable day each year, other than a Sunday, as a National Day of Prayer, on which the people of the United States may turn to God in prayer and meditation at churches, in groups, and as individuals.”

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby set aside Wednesday, October 16, 1968, as National Day of Prayer, 1968.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

UNITED NATIONS DAY, 1968 By the President of the United States of America

October 11, 1968

 A Proclamation

On October 24, 1968, the world will mark the twenty-third birthday of the United Nations.

82 Stat. 1660

Our commitment to that organization has been a continuing element of our foreign policy since the U.N. was founded, in 1945. Distinguished Americans of both parties represented our country in the framing of its Charter. Democrats and Republicans alike continued to represent our country in the councils of the United Nations. Together they have contributed to its objectives—the peaceful settlement of disputes, economic and social progress, the control of nuclear armaments, the growth of international law, and the protection of human rights.

The cause of human rights is receiving special notice in the United Nations this year, for it was 20 years ago that the General Assembly adopted a landmark document, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. To mark that anniversary, 1968 has been designated as International Human Rights Year.

As we take stock of the work of the United Nations, let us not lie beguiled either by easy optimism or by blind pessimism. Let us look squarely at both its successes and its disappointments. Above all, we must not forget that the cause of peace and progress, in this age of mingled hope and danger, requires nations to reject aggression in favor of conciliation and cooperation—of which the United Nations offers the greatest common instrument. Not by arms, but by giving life and practice to the principles of peace, will men find the peace and security in which freedom can flourish.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Thursday, October 24, 1968, as United Nations Day, and I urge the citizens of this Nation to observe that day by means of such community programs as will contribute to a realistic understanding of the aims, problems, and achievements of the United Nations and its associated organizations.

I also call upon officials of the Federal and State Governments and upon local officials to encourage citizen groups and agencies of communication—press, radio, television, and motion pictures—-to engage in special and appropriate observance of United Nations Day this year in cooperation with the United Nations Association of the United States of America and other interested organizations.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

 A Proclamation

Ante, p. 1659.

By Proclamation No. 3878, I proclaimed October 24, 1968, as United Nations Day, and urged the citizens of this Nation to observe that day by appropriate community programs.

82 Stat. 1661

It is especially fitting that, on United Nations Day, Americans should recall the significant part which President Harry S. Truman played in the creation of the United Nations, and the continued support which he gave to that Organization during his term of office.

Some of Harry S. Truman’s first decisions when he became President on the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt concerned the United Nations Conference in San Francisco. From the day the Conference met on April 25, 1915, to draft the United Nations Charter, until it concluded two months later, President Truman gave close d inaction to the work of our delegation and climaxed the proceedings with an historic address at the closing session of the Conference.

President Truman knew that an effective world organization was needed to prevent a repetition of the devastation wrought by two World Wars. Under his direction, the United States proposed that the development of nuclear energy take place under United Nations control. Through the Point Four Program and in other ways, he projected the United Nations into the field of economic and social development. His concern for human rights led him to appoint Eleanor Roosevelt as the United States spokesman on human rights. Mrs. Roosevelt helped draft the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, whose 20th anniversary we celebrate this year.

President Truman never flinched in the exercise of United States responsibility in and through the United Nations.

requested that I issue a proclamation recognizing this fact on October 24—United Nations Day. It is my great pleasure to do so.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, LYNDON B. JOHNSON, President of the United States of America, do hereby urge the citizens of this Nation in their observances of United Nations Day 1968 to give special recognition to the significant part which Harry S. Truman played in the creation of the United Nations and to recall those qualities of character, responsibility and leadership which caused him to support the United Nations in its efforts to keep the peace, mid to promote the rule of law and the prevalence of social justice among all men.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and ninety-third.

General.

The following tables are designed to serve as a guide to prior laws and other Federal instruments which are patently amended, repealed, or otherwise directly affected by the textual provisions of the public laws contained in this volume. These tables were initiated as a separate pamphlet to accompany Volume 70 of the United States Statutes at Large. Beginning with Volume 71, they are being published as an integral part of each volume.

From time to time the tables will be cumulated and made separately available in the form of one or more volumes. Tables 1–9 of Volumes 70–79 covering the years 1956 through 1965 have been cumulated and published as a separate pamphlet. Coverage and arrangement of the tables in this volume are identical to those in previous volumes.

The arrangement of the tables is outlined above. There are two basic groups: (1) Tables 1–10 cover amendments, repeals, and other actions directly affecting prior laws and other Federal instruments; and (2) Tables 11–19 cover all citations and other references to prior laws and other Federal instruments.

Details of Arrangement.

Tables 1–9 are limited to cases in which prior laws and other Federal instruments are directly affected.

1683 1684

Table 10 is a catch-all table designated as a finding aid to relationships which are contained in general terms. Listed in this table are all public laws in which the volume contains such provisions as “notwithstanding any other provision of law” and “all laws in conflict with this law are hereby repealed.”

Tables 11–19 cover all other cases in which prior laws or other Federal instruments are mentioned in the text of the public laws in either positive or negative terms.

In each of the basic groups of the first nine tables, is entitled “General Legislation” and contains listings of all laws affected which have not been codified in the Revised Statutes, the Internal Revenue Code, the Canal Zone Code, or into the titles of the United States Code or of District of Columbia Code which have been enacted into law. Succeeding tables cover these codified provisions, as well as other instruments such as reorganization plans, international agreements, Executive orders and proclamations, and numerous veterans’ regulations. The numbering of the tables in the two groups parallels those Tables 2 and Tables 10 last mentioned.

Table 1 is arranged chronologically, rather than by title or section number of the Revised Statutes. The use of this principle here in spite of mandatory legislation which has been codified in the United States Code is due to the fact that the Revised Statutes were all included at one time and thus require proper volume and United States Statute citation, even where references have been omitted or reflected. Occasional laws, or laws in the latest amendment, may be included where necessary to promote codification or to reflect the subject matter affected.

Users of Table 1 should, therefore, look under the subject, public law number, or United States volume and page number, as the case may be, in order to determine where the section of the Revised Statutes or public laws contained in the volume album through a given section of text, and as may have been added at a later date, the section is carried under the subject and United States citation of the basic text. For this reason the page on which each act begins.

All tables are arranged chronologically, except where the existence of a system of codification makes such arrangement undesirable as arrangement from the lowest to the highest title or section number. In Tables 1–10 there is a “Comment” column, in which the effect of the affecting action is described. These are editorial comments, intended to reflect what is patent in the laws and treaties, and every effort has been made to avoid interpretations.

In Tables 11–19 the “Comment” column is unnecessary, since in each instance the comment would be “Cited” or “Referred to.” In these tables, moreover, the number of comments has been held to a minimum in the interest of brevity. Thus Table 11 contains only three columns listing the date and number of the law affected and the page number in this volume at which the reference may be found.

Caveat.

All the tables are editorially compiled and presented as reference guides only. Hence they have no evidentiary status or legal effect. Indirect or implied relationships are not included. These may be found through use of the Subject Index or through research based on the text itself.

The Office of the Federal Register invites criticisms or suggestions with a view to improving the tables wherever possible.
