                Notice of November 12, 1998

                
Continuation of Emergency Regarding Weapons of 
                Mass Destruction

                On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, I 
                declared a national emergency with respect to the 
                unusual and extraordinary threat to the national 
                security, foreign policy, and economy of the United 
                States posed by the proliferation of nuclear, 
                biological, and chemical weapons (``weapons of mass 
                destruction'') and the means of delivering such 
                weapons. Because the proliferation of weapons of mass 
                destruction and the means of delivering them continues 
                to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States, the national emergency first declared on 
                November 14, 1994, and extended on November 14, 1995, 
                November 12, 1996, and November 13, 1997, must continue 
                in effect beyond November 14, 1998. Therefore, in 
                accordance with section 202(d) of the National 
                Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing 
                the national emergency declared in Executive Order 
                12938.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    November 12, 1998.
