    In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 
2273) the Department Labor issued a Certification of Eligibility to 
Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance on March 27, 1997, applicable to 
all workers of Stride Rite Corporation located in Hamilton and Tipton, 
Missouri. The notice was published in the Federal Register on May 2, 
1997 (62 FR 24135).
    At the request of the company, the Department reviewed the

worker separations have occurred at the Lexington, Massachusetts 
location of Stride Rite Corporation. The Lexington, Massachusetts 
facility is the corporate headquarters office and provides production 
planning services for children's shoes at Stride Rite Corporation.

workers of Stride Rite Corporation who were adversely affected by 
increased imports of children's shoes. Accordingly, the Department is 
amending the certification to cover the workers of Stride Rite 
Corporation, Lexington, Massachusetts.

follows:

    All workers of Stride Rite Corporation, Hamilton, Missouri (TA-

shoes who became totally or partially separated from employment on 
or after February 24, 1996 are eligible to apply for adjustment 
assistance under Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974.

    Signed at Washington D.C. this 14th day of January, 1998.
