China
June 2, 1995

Dear Mr. Speaker:  (Dear Mr. President:)
    I hereby transmit the document referred to in subsection 402(d)(1) 
of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended (``the Act''), with respect to the 
continuation of a waiver of application of subsections (a) and (b) of 
section 402 of the Act to the People's Republic of China. This document 
constitutes my recommendation to continue in effect this waiver for a 
further 12-month period and includes my reasons for determining that 
continuation of the waiver currently in effect for the People's Republic 
of China

will substantially promote the objectives of section 402 of the Act, and 
my determination to that effect.
        Sincerely,
