       (a) In General.--The additional U.S. notes to chapter 71 of 
     the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States are 
     amended by adding at the end the following new note:
       ``3.(a) Notwithstanding any provision in additional U.S.

     heading 7113 which is the product of the Virgin Islands, 
     Guam, or American Samoa (including any such article which 
     contains any foreign component) shall be eligible for the

     the provisions of this note and additional U.S. note 5 to 
     chapter 91, as the Secretaries determine necessary to carry 
     out their respective duties under this note. Such regulations 
     shall not be inconsistent with substantial transformation 
     requirements but may define the circumstances under which 
     articles of jewelry shall be deemed to be `units' for 
     purposes of the benefits, provisions, and limitations of 
     additional U.S. note 5 to chapter 91.
       ``(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, during 
     the 2-year period beginning on January 1, 1999, any article 
     of jewelry provided for in heading 7113 that is assembled in

     Schedule.''.
       (b) Conforming Amendment.--General Note 3(a)(iv)(A) of the

       (a) In General.--U.S. note 6 of subchapter X of chapter 98 
     of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States is 
     amended in subdivision (a) by adding at the end the following 
     new sentence: ``The term `instruments and apparatus' under 
     subheading 9810.00.60 includes separable components of an 
     instrument or apparatus listed in this subdivision that are 
     imported for assembly in the United States in such instrument 
     or apparatus where the instrument or apparatus, due to its 
     size, cannot be feasibly imported in its assembled state.''.
       (b) Application of Domestic Equivalency Test to 
     Components.--U.S. note 6 of subchapter X of chapter 98 of the 
     Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States is amended--
       (1) by redesignating subdivisions (d) through (f) as 
     subdivisions (e) through (g), respectively; and
       (2) by inserting after subdivision (c) the following:
       ``(d)(i) If the Secretary of Commerce determines under this 
     U.S. note that an instrument or apparatus is being 
     manufactured in the United States that is of equivalent 
     scientific value to a foreign-origin instrument or apparatus 
     for which application is made (but which, due to its size, 
     cannot be feasibly

     the findings to the Secretary of the Treasury and to the 
     applicant institution, and all components of such foreign-
     origin instrument or apparatus shall remain dutiable.
       ``(ii) If the Secretary of Commerce determines that the 
     instrument or apparatus for which application is made is not 
     being manufactured in the United States, the Secretary is 
     authorized to determine further whether any component of such 
     instrument or apparatus of a type that may be purchased, 
     obtained, or imported separately is being manufactured in the 
     United States and shall report the findings to the Secretary 
     of the Treasury and to the applicant institution, and any 
     component found to be domestically available shall remain 
     dutiable.
       ``(iii) Any decision by the Secretary of the Treasury which 
     allows for duty-free entry of a component of an instrument or 
     apparatus which, due to its size cannot be feasibly imported 
     in its assembled state, shall be effective for a specified 
     maximum period, to be determined in consultation with the 
     Secretary of Commerce, taking into account both the 
     scientific needs of the importing institution and the 
     potential for development of comparable domestic 
     manufacturing capacity.''.
       (c) Modifications of Regulations.--The Secretary of the 
     Treasury and the Secretary of Commerce shall make such 
     modifications to their joint regulations as are necessary to 
     carry out the amendments made by this section.

     law, the United States Customs Service shall, not later than 
     90 days after the date of the enactment of this

     001).
       (b) Payment of Amounts Owed.--Any amounts owed by the 
     United States pursuant to the liquidation or reliquidation of

     Tariff Schedule of the United States, as in effect on January 
     1, 1997.''.
       (b) Conforming Amendment.--Section 304(j) of such Act, as 
     redesignated by subsection (a)(1) of this section, is amended 
     by striking ``subsection (h)'' and inserting ``subsection 
     (i)''.
       (c) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section 
     apply to goods entered, or withdrawn from warehouse for 
     consumption, on or after the date of the enactment of this 
     Act.

     SEC. 2424. EXTENSION OF NONDISCRIMINATORY TREATMENT (NORMAL 
                   TRADE RELATIONS TREATMENT) TO THE PRODUCTS OF 
                   MONGOLIA.

       (a) Findings.--The Congress finds that Mongolia--
       (1) has received normal trade relations treatment since 
     1991 and has been found to be in full compliance with the 
     freedom of emigration requirements under title IV of the 
     Trade Act of 1974;
       (2) has emerged from nearly 70 years of communism and 
     dependence on the former Soviet Union, approving a new 
     constitution in 1992 which has established a modern 
     parliamentary democracy charged with guaranteeing fundamental 
     human rights, freedom of expression, and an independent 
     judiciary;
       (3) has held 4 national elections under the new 
     constitution, 2 presidential and 2 parliamentary, thereby 
     solidifying the nation's transition to democracy;
       (4) has undertaken significant market-based economic 
     reforms, including privatization, the reduction of government 
     subsidies, the elimination of most price controls and 
     virtually all import tariffs, and the closing of insolvent 
     banks;
       (5) has concluded a bilateral trade treaty with the United 
     States in 1991, and a bilateral investment treaty in 1994;
       (6) has acceded to the Agreement Establishing the World 
     Trade Organization, and extension of unconditional normal 
     trade relations treatment to the products of Mongolia would 
     enable the United States to avail itself of all rights under 
     the World Trade Organization with respect to Mongolia; and
       (7) has demonstrated a strong desire to build friendly 
     relationships and to cooperate fully with the United States 
     on trade matters.
       (b) Termination of Application of Title IV of the Trade Act 
     of 1974 to Mongolia.--
       (1) Presidential determinations and extensions of 
     nondiscriminatory treatment.--Notwithstanding any provision 
     of title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2431 et 
     seq.), the President may--
       (A) determine that such title should no longer apply to 
     Mongolia; and
       (B) after making a determination under subparagraph (A) 
     with respect to Mongolia, proclaim the extension of 
     nondiscriminatory treatment (normal trade relations 
     treatment) to the products of that country.
       (2) Termination of application of title iv.--On or after 
     the effective date of the extension under paragraph (1)(B) of 
     nondiscriminatory treatment to the products of Mongolia, 
     title IV of the Trade Act of 1974 shall cease to apply to 
     that country.

     SEC. 2425. ENHANCED CARGO INSPECTION PILOT PROGRAM.

       (a) In General.--The Commissioner of the Customs Service is

     year 1999 to provide 24-hour cargo inspection service on a 
     fee-for-service basis at an international airport described 
     in subsection (b). The Commissioner may extend the pilot 
     program for fiscal years after fiscal year 1999 if the 
     Commissioner determines that the extension is warranted.
       (b) Airport Described.--The international airport described 
     in this subsection is a multi-modal international airport 
     that--
       (1) is located adjacent to a seaport; and
       (2) serviced more than 185,000 tons of air cargo in 1997.

     SEC. 2426. PAYMENT OF EDUCATION COSTS OF DEPENDENTS OF 
                   CERTAIN CUSTOMS SERVICE PERSONNEL.

       Notwithstanding section 2164 of title 10, United States 
     Code, the Department of Defense shall permit the dependent 
     children of deceased United States Customs Aviation Group 
     Supervisor Pedro J. Rodriquez attending the Antilles 
     Consolidated School System at Ford Buchanan, Puerto Rico, to 
     complete their primary and secondary education at this school 
     system without cost to such children or any parent, relative,

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from 
Illinois (Mr. Crane) and the gentleman from California (Mr. Matsui) 
each will control 20 minutes.
  The Chair recognizes the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane).


                             General Leave

  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members have 
5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and 
include extraneous material on H.R. 4856.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the request of the 
gentleman Illinois?
  There was no objection.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  I rise in strong support of H.R. 4856. This legislation consists of a 
number of noncontroversial provisions which have been under review by 
the Committee on Ways and Means for the past 2 years. Each of these 
items enjoys bipartisan support, and many have been passed by the House 
in other pieces of legislation.
  The first section of the bill contains several technical corrections 
and miscellaneous amendments to trade laws, each of which have been 
reviewed by the administration as well as interested parties in the 
private sector. In addition to clerical corrections to trade statutes, 
these provisions contain various tariff suspensions and reductions, 
many of which apply to anti-HIV/AIDS and anti-cancer drugs as well as 
environmentally friendly chemical substitutes.
  The second category of provisions in the bill enables the U.S. 
Customs Service to provide enhanced service to air and sea passengers 
entering the United States. Specifically, the bill provides the 
necessary resources to allow Customs to continue to dedicate inspectors 
at airports in Canada, Bermuda and the Bahamas to facilitate the 
transit of U.S. bound air passengers before they reach the United 
States. The bill also provides the necessary resources to allow Customs 
to continue to dedicate inspectors to facilitate the transit of vessel 
passengers arriving at our seaports. These enhanced services will be 
provided out of the surplus in a specifically dedicated Customs user 
fee account. In addition, the bill assesses a $1.75 user fee on 
affected cruise ship passengers who currently pay nothing to the user 
fee account to offset the cost of providing dedicated cruise ship 
passenger service.
  The third section of the bill authorizes the President to determine 
that title IV of the Trade Act of 1974, commonly known as the Jackson-
Vanik Amendment, should no longer apply to Mongolia and to extend 
unconditional normal trade relations to that country. The committee 
requested public comment on this proposal and received no negative 
comments. The United States first extended normal trade relations to 
Mongolia in 1991 under a presidential waiver from the Jackson-Vanik 
Freedom of Immigration criteria. In 1996, the President found Mongolia 
to be in full compliance with the Jackson-Vanik requirements. Two years 
ago Mongolia became a member of the World Trade Organization. 
Authorizing the President to determine that Jackson-Vanik should no 
longer apply to Mongolia is necessary for the United States to benefit 
from our rights under the WTO with respect to Mongolia.
  I would also like to note that the substance of the provision on 
Mongolia is identical to a bill, H.R. 36, that our colleague the 
gentleman from Nebraska (Mr. Bereuter) introduced on this issue earlier 
this year. I commend the gentleman from Nebraska for his contribution 
and leadership in raising this as an important matter in the 105th 
Congress.
  Finally, the legislation before us contains a revenue offset 
introduced yesterday by the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Archer) in 
coordination with the Treasury Department. It clarifies the tax 
treatment of certain transfers of assets and liabilities to 
corporations. The tax treatment of these transfers is unclear in 
situations involving the transfer of liabilities, and some taxpayers 
are structuring transactions to take advantage of the uncertainty. The 
provision in the bill before us is intended to eliminate this 
uncertainty and to focus on the underlying economics of these corporate 
transfers. This provision has already passed both the House and the 
Senate in substantially identical form earlier this year. It enjoys 
bipartisan support, and it is strongly supported by the administration.
  Mr. Speaker, overall I believe that the provisions in this bill 
represent our ongoing efforts to make government work better and be 
more responsive to the public, and I encourage my colleagues to support 
this bipartisan package.
  Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
  Mr. MATSUI. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, I would just like to reiterate some of the comments made 
by the gentleman from Illinois as the subcommittee chair of the 
Subcommittee on International Trade of the Committee on Ways and Means. 
This is essentially four noncontroversial bills. They all had either 
hearings, markups in the full committee or subcommittee, and some of 
the bills actually passed the House of Representatives. The first piece 
of legislation under the title is the Customs Pre-clearance and User 
Fee Act, and essentially this allows the Customs Service to use a 
Customs Service pre-clearance account for the purpose of pre-clearing 
passengers that arrive from Mexico, the Caribbean or Canada. It also 
establishes a $1.75 user fee on those passengers that enter into the 
United States through cruise ships.
  The second item is the silk scarf marketing bill. The United States 
and the European Community entered into an agreement that silks from 
China that are assembled and/or hand crafted in Europe can have the 
designation of the country of origin from Europe itself. This would be 
in compliance obviously with the WTO ruling.
  The third item, as the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) said, is 
the Miscellaneous Technical Tariff and Duty Provision Act. This has 170 
tariff reductions or eliminations to it. It will allow products such as 
drugs that treat AIDS and HIV patients, it has anti-cancer drugs that 
can be allowed into the United States that are not available in this 
country and other noncontroversial items that have been signed off by 
both the administration, various industry groups and all of the 
affected parties.

                              {time}  1445

  The fourth and last item is having normal trade relations with the 
country of Mongolia. Up until 1990, Mongolia was a communist country 
and thereby under the Jackson-Vanik provisions. Since that time they 
have had five elections, two presidential and three parliamentary, all 
of them without any problems whatsoever. They were free and fair 
elections.
  They have had most-favored-nation status now, normal trade relation 
status, since 1991. They have complied with the WTO and now are part of 
the WTO, and, as a result of that, it would only be appropriate to give 
them permanent normal trade relation status.
  These four pieces of legislation do have some revenue aspects to 
them, but, as the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) said, we do have 
some non-controversial provisions that would offset it by way of the 
Tax Code basically

[[Page H11581]]

in corporate restructuring. As the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) 
mentioned, it creates some ambiguity and some have been taking 
advantage of these provisions.
  It is a bipartisan bill, supported on both sides of the aisle, 
obviously, and supported by the administration. We recommend support of 
this legislation.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield such time as she may consume to the gentlewoman 
from the Virgin Islands (Ms. Christian-Green).
  Ms. CHRISTIAN-GREEN. Mr. Speaker, I thank my distinguished colleague 
for yielding me time and also for his support on this and other 
measures which have come to this subcommittee.
  Mr. Speaker, amid the disappointment for us that may come about in 
the budget bill which is to be passed shortly, this bill provides a 
beacon of light and hope to my constituents, the people of the U.S. 
Virgin Islands.
  Contained in these miscellaneous and technical amendments of the 
trade law is a measure which would extend the provision enjoyed by our 
watch factories to include fine jewelry. While this is a small issue 
here, it is a very important one to these companies which are based in 
several states and on my home island of St. Croix, and it is extremely 
important, of course, to the employees and their families. Ten years 
ago, these companies provided close to 1,000 jobs. Today, there may 
just be over 200. Without this bill, even those will not be secure.
  I want to take this opportunity to thank the gentleman from Illinois 
(Chairman Crane) and the ranking member, the gentleman from California 
(Mr. Matsui) for bringing this to the floor today. In doing so, they 
are helping to revitalize an industry that has provided meaningful 
employment and a sound livelihood to my constituents, and, with the 
vote of Members, it will continue to do so.
  I also want to thank my other colleagues, the gentleman from New York 
(Mr. Rangel) and the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. Jefferson) and many 
others for cosponsoring my bill, H.R. 2498, which is included in this 
measure, and for their support. I urge its passage, and I ask my 
colleagues to vote yes on this measure.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
  Mr. Speaker, before yielding back the balance of my time, I would 
like to thank Jim Terpstra, Legislative Fellow, who has worked with us 
on the Subcommittee on Trade and who will be departing. We appreciate 
all of his efforts.
  Mr. BEREUTER. Mr. Speaker, this Member strongly supports H.R. 4856, 
which includes authorization of the extension of nondiscriminatory 
treatment or normal trade relations to the products of Mongolia. This 
Member introduced the original legislation authorizing this 
designation, H.R. 36, on January 7, 1997, the first day of this 
Congress.
  In 1952, the United States denied Mongolia and twenty other communist 
countries or territories under communist rule normal trade relations. 
Normal Trade Relations with Mongolia were restored in November 1991, 
when the President waived the provisions of the Jackson-Vanik trade 
legislation. In 1996, the President of the United States made the first 
determination that Mongolia was in full-compliance with the human 
rights objectives of the Jackson-Vanik trade legislation and the 
President has renewed that determination each year since, and most 
recently on July 1, 1998.
  Since 1990, there have been five free and fair elections in Mongolia 
which have coincided with significant reforms of the government and the 
economy. Approximately one year ago, the Economist magazine heralded 
Mongolia's dramatic economic reforms of the last several years by 
calling Mongolians ``those free-trading Mongolians.'' Unfortunately 
however, these dramatic economic and political reforms in Mongolia have 
recently begun to suffer from factional fighting in that country and 
the emergence of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party (MPRP). 
Most recently, the MPRP has begun to attack the ambitious privatization 
and private sector development plans of the Democratic coalition in 
Mongolia and a high level Ministry official was recently assassinated.
  The World Bank estimates that Mongolia must have a 5% growth rate to 
create new jobs for its entrants into the work force. Yet with the 
Asian Financial Crisis to its east and Russia's collapse on its west, 
Mongolia will find it very difficult to meet its economic goals and 
stay on its reform path. The United States can play a fundamental, 
helpful role by granting Mongolia normal trade relations and therefore 
reasonable access to our markets. The United States currently provides 
a modest amount of aid to Mongolia that will be necessary in the short 
term. However, by granting Mongolia reasonable access to our markets 
and promoting trade with our two countries, this legislation is 
building the foundation so we can hopefully graduate Mongolia from U.S. 
assistance in the future.
  In light of the very difficult political and economic challenges for 
the people of Mongolia, passage of this legislation comes at a critical 
time. This legislation sends a very important signal to the people of 
Mongolia that they will be rewarded for maintaining their brave steps 
toward economic and trade liberalization. This Member only regrets that 
this legislation was not approved earlier to bolster the standing of 
those in Mongolia who have already bravely fought for economic and 
political reform here.
  Mr. SHAW. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 4856, a bill 
making Miscellaneous Technical Corrections to Trade Law.
  Mr. Speaker, while H.R. 4856 contains many worthy provisions, I am 
especially pleased that the text of H.R. 4819, the Passenger Services 
Enhancement Act was included in this legislation. I introduced H.R. 
4819 earlier this month, and its passage today is crucial to the 
economic well-being of my home state of Florida.
  As my colleagues may recall, last year the Customs user fee expired, 
and thereby caused a possible diminution in Customs inspectors at 
Florida ports where the fee was being collected. To avoid disruptions 
in the cruise ship industry, Congress passed a bill I introduced (H.R. 
3034) which preserved Customs inspectors in Florida for fiscal year 
1998 only. That bill passed on the final day of the first session of 
the 105th Congress. Now that we are in a new fiscal year, Customs 
inspectors serving Florida cruise ships are again in jeopardy. Passage 
of the Passenger Services Enhancement Act will ensure that Customs 
inspectors at Florida ports are preserved, and it will also allow the 
cruise ship industry to schedule new cruises without being impeded by a 
shortage of manpower at Customs.
  While this legislation is good news for Florida, I am especially 
pleased that an agreement was reached to reduce the price of the 
Customs user fee to $1.75. My colleagues may recall that at one time, 
this fee was as high as $6.50. At this new level, few can consider the 
Customs user fee burdensome or unreasonable. I will however, be 
requesting a GAO study to verify that this amount, which was 
recommended to me by Customs, is the true cost of processing a cruise 
ship passenger.
  The cruise ship business is an important component of Florida's 
largest industry, which is tourism. If Florida were to lose Custom 
inspectors, it would cause grievous harm to my state's economy. 
Enactment of the Passenger Services Enhancement Act will prevent job 
layoffs, disruptions, and financial losses to this vital industry.
  Mr. Speaker, I am also pleased that the amended text of H.R. 2770, a 
bill I introduced last year, was included in this bill. This provision 
would defer the duty on large yachts imported for sale at boat shows in 
the United States. Boat shows, be they in New York, Chicago, Miami, or 
Fort Lauderdale are important generators of economic activity, and this 
legislation will promote greater commerce in the yachting industry. For 
my constituents, it is a pleasant coincidence that this legislation 
will hopefully be signed into law when the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show 
starts later this month.
  Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to support H.R. 4856.
  Mr. RAMSTAD. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of this bill before us 
today, which includes provisions to provide for the continuation of 
preclearance activities for air transit passengers.
  I want to thank Mr. Crane and Mr. Shaw for working with me on these 
important provisions to help facilitate the services Customs provides 
to process the massive amounts of people and products entering and 
exiting our country.
  These provisions, which are similar to legislation Mr. Crane and I 
introduced last April, would allow the Customs Service to access funds 
in the User Fee Accounts and enhance inspector staffing and equipment 
at preclearance service locations in foriegn countries.
  This is significant because if U.S. Customs eliminates these 
positions, preclearance for passengers to the U.S. will slow, travel 
will be disrupted, and the tourism industry in many states will suffer. 
Allowing the preclearance services to continue means a great deal to 
many employers in my district, like Northwest Airlines and all those 
affiliated with the Mall of America--which attracts more visitors each 
year than Disneyworld, Graceland and the Grand Canyon combined.
  The Customs Service has said there are insufficient resources in its 
salaries and expenses account to fund the enhanced preclearance 
positions. This bill gives access to excess funds in the User Fee 
Account,

[[Page H11582]]

without any additional cost to taxpayers. Acting-Commissioner Banks 
testified before our Ways and Means Committee in support of our earlier 
version of the legislation, and the airline industry supports it as 
well.
  I appreciate how quickly the House has recognized the merits of these 
provisions, as well as the other important elements of the bill to 
reduce tariffs on various products, and allowed us to bring it to the 
floor today. I urge my colleagues to join me in support of this 
critical bill.
  Mr. GILMAN. Mr. Speaker, I would like to express my strong support 
for H.R. 4856, the ``Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Correction Act 
of 1998'' which will strengthen our trade and economic relationship 
with Mongolia through the extension of normal trading relations with 
that emerging democracy in central Asia.
  Mongolia has undertaken significant market-based economic reforms, 
including the reduction of government subsidies, the elimination of 
most price controls and the closing of insolvent banks. In many 
respects, this country's economic track record is a model for many 
other countries in the region and in Asia as a whole.
  I would also like to express my thanks to the author of this 
legislation, Chairman Archer, for this willingness to include six duty 
suspension requests in this legislation that will provide small but 
important benefits for a leading company in my district, the Ciba 
Specialty Chemicals Corporation.
  Mr. MATSUI. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. CRANE. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore (Mr. LaTourette). The question is on the 
motion offered by the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Crane) that the 
House suspend the rules and pass the bill, H.R. 4856.
  The question was taken; and (two-thirds having voted in favor 
thereof) the rules were suspended and the bill was passed.
  A motion to reconsider was laid on the table.
