TITRE I. dispositions générales.General provisions. Chapitre I. prescriptions à observer par les pays signataires de la convention dès que la peste, le choléra ou la fièvre jaune apparaît sur leur territoire.Rules to be observed when plague, etc., appears. *Section I*.— notification et communications ultérieures aux autres pays. Article premier.— ChaqueNotification to other governments. Gouvernement doit notifier immédiatement aux autres Gouvernements le premier cas avéré de peste, de choléra ou de fièvre jaune constaté sur son territoire.
De même, le premier cas avéré de choléra, de peste ou de fièvre jaune survenant en dehors des circonscriptions déjà atteintes doit faire l’objet d’une notification immédiate aux autres Gouvernements. 1832 Art. 2.—Detailed Information. Toute notification prévue à l’article premier est accompagnée ou très promptement suivie de renseignements circonstanciés sur: 1° l’endroit où la maladie est apparue; 2° la date de son apparition, son origine et sa forme; 3° le nombre des cas constatés et celui des décès; 4° l’étendue de la ou des circonscriptions atteintes; 5° pour la peste, l’existence parmi les rats de la peste ou d’une mortalité insolite; 6° pour la fièvre jaune, l’existence du *stegomya calopus*; 7° les mesures immédiatement prises.
Art. 3.—Notice to diplomatic, etc., officers. La notification et les renseignements prévus aux articles 1 et 2 sont adressés aux agences diplomatiques ou consulaires dans la capitale du pays contaminé. Pour les pays qui n’y sont pas représentés, ils sont transmis directement par télégraphe aux Gouvernements de ces pays. Art. 4.—Information as to progress of epidemic. La notification et les renseignements prévus aux articles 1 et 2 sont suivis de communications ultérieures données o’une façon régulière, de manière à tenir les Gouvernements au courant de la marche de l’épidémie.
Ces communications, qui se font au moins une fois par semaine et qui sont aussi complètes que possible, indiquent plus particulièrement les précautions prises en vue de combattre l'extension de la maladie. Details.Elles doivent préciser; 1° les mesures prophylactiques appliquées relativement à l’inspection sanitaire ou à la visite médicale, à l’isolement et à la désinfection; 2° les mesures exécutées au départ des navires pour empêcher l’exportation du mal et spécialement dans les cas prévus par le 5° et le 6° de l’article 2 cidessus, les mesures prises respectivement contre les rats ou contre les moustiques. 1833 Art. 5.— Le prompt et sincèrePrompt notification recommended. accomplissement des prescriptions qui précèdent est d’une importance primordiale.
Les notifications n’ont de valeur réelle que si chaque Gouvernement est prévenu luimême, à temps, des cas de peste, de choléra, de fièvre jaune et des cas douteux survenus sur son territoire. On ne saurait donc trop recommander aux divers Gouvernements de rendre obligatoire la déclaration des cas de peste, de choléra et de fièvre jaune et de se tenir renseignés sur toute mortalité insolite des rats, notamment dans les ports. Art. 6.— Il est désirable que lesSpecial arrangements. pays voisins fassent des arrangements spéciaux en vue d'organiser un service d’informations directes entre les chefs des administrations compétentes, en ce qui concerne les territoires limitrophes ou se trouvant en relations commerciales étroites. *Section II*.— conditions qui permettent de considérer une circonscription territoriale comme contaminée ou redevenue saine.
Art. 7.— La notification d’unApplication of strictions. premier cas de peste, de choléra ou de fièvre jaune n’entraîne pas, contre la circonscription territoriale où il s’est produit, l’application des mesures prévues au chapitre II ciaprès. Mais, lorsque*Post*, p. 1835. plusieurs cas de peste ou de fièvre, jaune non importés se sont manifestés ou que les cas de choléra forment foyer11Il existe un foyer quand l’apparition de cas de choléra au delà de l’entourage du ou des premiers cas prouve qu’on n’est pas parvenu à limiter l’expansion de la maladie la où elle s’était manifestée a son début., la circonscription peut être considérée comme contaminée.
Art. 8.— Pour restreindre lesLimiting restrictions, etc. mesures aux seules régions atteintes, les Gouvernements ne doivent les appliquer qu’aux provenances des circonscriptions contaminées. 1834 Meaning of “area.”On entend par le mot *circonscription* mie partie de territoire bien déterminée dans les renseignements qui accompagnent ou suivent la notification, ainsi: une province, un gouvernement, un district, un département, un canton, une île, une commune, une ville, un quartier de ville, un village, un port, un polder, une agglomération, etc., quelles que soient l’étendue et la population de ces portions de territoire.
Preventing exportation of articles, etc.Mais cette restriction limitée à la circonscription contaminée ne doit être acceptée qu’à la condition formelle que le Gouvernement du pays contaminé prenne les mesures nécessaires: 1° pour combattre l’extension de l'épidé-mie et 2°, s’il s’agit de peste ou de choléra, pour prévenir, à moins de *Post*, p. 1836.désinfection préalable, l’exportation des objets visés aux 1° et 2° de l’article 13, provenant de la circonscription contaminée.
Quand une circonscription est contaminée, aucune mesure restrictive n’est prise contre les provenances de cette circonscription, si ces provenances l’ont quittée cinq jours au moins avant le début de l’épidémie. Art. 9.—Areas no longer contaminated. Pour qu’une circonscription ne soit plus considérée comme contaminée il faut la constatation officielle: 1° qu’il n’y a eu ni décès, ni cas nouveau, en ce qui concerne la peste ou le choléra depuis cinq jours, en ce qui concerne la fièvre jaune depuis dixhuit jouis, soit après l’isolement, soit après la mort ou la guérison du dernier malade; 2° que toutes les mesures de désinfection ont été appliquées; en outre, s’il s’agit de cas de peste, que les mesmes contre les rats sont exécutées, et, s’il s’agit de fièvre jaune, que les précautions contre les moustiques ont été prises. *Section III*.— mesures dans les ports contaminÉs au dÉpart des navires.
Art. 10.—Preventing affected persons from departing, etc. L’autorité compétente est tenue de prendre des mesures efficaces: 1835 1° pour empêcher l’embarquement des personnes présentant des symptômes de peste, de choléra ou de fièvre jaune; 2° en cas de peste ou de choléra pour empêcher l’exportation des marchandises ou objets quelconques qu’elle considérerait comme contaminés et qui n’auraient pas été préalablement désinfectés à terre, sous la surveillance du mé-decin délégué de l’autorité publique; 3° en cas de peste, pour empêcher l’embarquement des rats; 4° en cas de choléra, pour veiller à ce que l’eau potable embarquée soit saine; 5° en cas de fièvre jaune, pour empêcher l’embarquement des moustiques.
Chapitre II. mesures de défense contre les territoires contaminés.Defense against contaminated countries. *Section I*.— Publication des mesures prescrites. Art. 11.— Le Gouvernement dePrescribed measures to be published, etc. chaque pays est tenu de publier immédiatement les mesures qu’il croit devoir prescrire au sujet des provenances d'un pays ou d’une circonscription territoriale contaminée. Il communique aussitôt cette publication à l’agent diplomatique ou consulaire du pays contaminé, résidant dans sa capitale, ainsi qu’aux Conseils sanitaires internationaux.
Il est également tenu de faire connaître, par les mêmes voies, le retrait de ces mesures ou les modifications dontelles seraient l’objet. A défaut d’agence diplomatique ou consulaire dans la capitale, les communications sont faites directement au Gouvernement du pays intéressé. *Section II*.— Marchandises.—Désinfection.—Importation et transit.—Bagages. Art. 12.— Il n’existe pasContaminated merchandise. de marchandises qui soient par ellesmêmes capables de transmettre1836la peste, le choléra ou la fièvre jaune.
Elles ne deviennent dangereuses qu’au cas où elles ont été souillées par des produits pesteux ou cholériques. Art. 13.—Disinfecting contamminated articles. La désinfection ne peut être appliquée qu’en cas de peste ou de choléra et seulement aux marchandises et objets que l’autorité sanitaire locale considère comme contaminés.

Lorsque ces objets sont transportés comme bagages ou à la suite d’un changement de domicile (objets d'installation), ils ne peuvent être prohibés et sont *Post*, p. 1838.soumis au régime de l’article 20. Les paquets laissés par les soldats et les matelots et renvoyés dans leur patrie après décès sont assimilés aux objets compris dans le premier alinéa du 1°. 2° Rags, etc. Les chiffons et drilles, à l’exception, quant au choléra, des chiffons comprimés qui sont transportés comme marchandises en gros par ballots cerclés.

De même, lorsque les marchandises ou objets sont transportés de telle façon qu’en cours de route ils n’aient pu être en contact avec les objets souillés, leur transit à travel’s une circonscription territoriale contaminée ne doit pas être un obstacle à leur entrée dans le pays de destination. 1837 Art. 15.— Les marchandises etShipments five days before epidemic began. objets spécifiés aux 1° et 2° de l’article 13 ne tombent pas sous l’application des mesures de prohibition à l'entrée, s’il est dé-montré à l’autorité du pays de destination qu’ilsont été expédiés cinq jours au moins avant le début de l'épidémie.
Art. 16.— Le mode et l’endroitMode of disinfection, etc. de la désinfection ainsi que les procédés à employer pour assurer a destruction des rats, des insectes et des moustiques sont fixés par l’autorité du pays de destination. Ces opérations doivent être faites de manière à ne détériorer les objets que le moinspossible. Les hardes, vieux chiffons, pansements infectés, papiers et autres objets de peu de valeur peuvent être détruits par le feu. Il appartient à chaque État dePayment of damages. régler la question relative au payement éventuel des dommagesintérêts résultant de la désinfection ainsi que de la destruction des objets cidessus visés et de celle des rats, des insectes et des moustiques.
Si, à l’occasion des mesuresDestruction of rats, etc., on vessels. prises pour la destruction des rats, des insectes et des moustiques à bord des navires, des taxes sont perçues par l'autorité sanitaire, soit directement, soit par l’intermédiaire d'une société ou d’un particulier, le taux de ces taxes doit être fixé par un tarif publié d’avance et établi de façon à ce qu’il ne puisse résulter de l’ensemble de son application une source de bénéfices pour l’État ou pour l’Administration sanitaire.

Imports unenumerated in this Tariff will pay Duty at the rate ofTariff on unenumerated imports. 5 per cent ad valorem; and the value upon which Duty is to be calculated shall be the wholesale market value of the goods in local currency. This market value when converted into Haikwan Taels shall be considered to be 12 per cent higher than the amount upon which Duty is to be calculated. If the goods have been sold before presentation to the CustomsMarket value determined. of the Application to pay Duty, the gross amount of the bona fide contract will be accepted as evidence of the market value. Should the goods have been sold on c. f. and i. terms, that is to say, without inclusion in the price of Duty and other charges, such c. f. and i. price shall be taken as the value for Duty-paying purposes without the deduction mentioned in the preceding paragraph.

Should the Board sustain the Customs valuation, or, in the event of not sustaining that valuation, should it decide that the goods have been under-valued by the importer to the extent of not loss than 7½ per cent., the importer will pay the fees; if otherwise, the fees will be paid by the Customs. Should the Board decide that the correct value of the goods is 20 per cent, (or more) higher than that upon which the importer originally claimed to pay Duty, the Customs authorities may retain possession of the goods until full Duty has been paid and may levy an additional Duty equal to four times the Duty sought to be evaded.

Elles sont trans mises sans lettre d’envoi sous en veloppe fermée. Chaque Admi nistration est libre de demander, par une notification adressée au Bureau international, que les réclamations qui concernent son service soient transmises, soit à son administration centrale, soit à un bureau spécialement désigné, soit enfin directement au bureau de destination ou, si elle est seulement intéressée à titre d’intermédiaire, au bureau d’échange auquel l’envoi a été expédié. Return to office of origin.Les formules *I* et les pièces y annexées doivent, dans tous les cas, faire retour à l’Office d’origine de l’objet réclamé, dans un délai qui ne peut excéder six mois à partir de la date de la réclamation. Ce délai est porté à neuf mois dans les relations avec les les pays d’outremer. 6.—Losses, etc., excepted. Les dispositions qui précèdent ne s’appliquent pas aux cas de spoliation de dépêche, manque de dépêche, etc., qui comportent une correspondance plus étendue entre les Administrations. 2051 XXX *Retrait de correspondances et modification de l’adresse ou des conditions d’envoi.*Withdrawal of articles, etc. 1.—Form of application.Pour les demandes de renvoi ou de réexpédition de correspondances, ainsi que pour les demandes de rectification d’adresses, l’expéditeur doit faire usage d’une *Post*, p. 2097.formule conforme au modèle *J* annexé au présent Règlement. En remettant cette réclamation au bureau de poste, l’expéditeur doit y justifier de son identité et produire, s’il y a lieu, le bulletin du dépôt. Après la justification, dont l’Administration du pays d’origine assume la responsabilité, Procedure.il est procédé de la manière suivante: 1° Si la demande est destinée Request by mail.à être transmise par voie postale, la formule, accompagnée d’un fac similé parfait de l’enveloppe ou suscription de l’envoi, est expédiée directement, sous pli recommandé, au bureau de poste destinataire. 2° Si la demande doit By telegraph.être faite par voie télégraphique, la formule est déposée au service télégraphique chargé d’en transmettre les termes au bureau de poste destinataire. s’agit d’une rectification d’adresse, la demande télégraphique doit être confirmée, par le premier courrier, par une demande postale accompagnée du facsimilé précité. 2.— A la réception de la formule Action of office of destination.*J* ou du télégramme en tenant lieu, le bureau de poste destinataire recherche la correspondance signalée et donne à la demande la suite nécessaire. Toutefois, s’il s’agit d’un changement d’adresse demandé par voie télégraphique, le bureau destinataire se borne à retenir la lettre et attend, pour faire droit à la demande, l’arrivée du fac similé nécessaire.

Toute Administration peut exiger, par une notification adressée au Bureau international, que l’échange des réclamations, en ce qui la concerne, soit effectué par l’entremise de son Administration centrale ou d’un bureau spécialement désigné. Delivery withheld.Dans le cas où l’échange des réclamations s’effectue par l’entremise des Administrations centrales, il doit être tenu compte des demandes expédiées directement par les bureaux d’origine aux bureaux de destination, dans ce sens que les correspondances y relatives sont exclues de la distribution jusqu’à l’arrivée de la réclamation de l’Administration centrale. Expenses.Les Administrations qui usent de la faculté prévue par le premier alinéa du présent paragraphe prennent à leur charge les frais que peut entraîner la transmission, dans leur service intérieur, par voie postale ou télégraphique, des communications à échanger avec le bureau destinataire. Use of telegraph.Le recours à la voie télégraphi que est obligatoire lorsque l’expéiteur a luimême fait usage de cette voie et que le bureau destinataire ne peut pas être prévenu en temps utile par la voie postale. 2053 XXXI *Emploi de timbresposte présumés frauduleux ou d’empreintes contrefaites de machines à affranchir.*Fraudulent stamps or impressions.

XXXII Transit statistics.*Statistiques des frais de transit.* 1.—Settlement of transit charges.*Ante*, pp. 1974, 1993. Les statistiques à effectuer en exécution des articles 4 et 19 de la Convention pour le décompte dos frais de transit dans l’Union et en dehors des limites de l’Union, sont établies une fois tous les trois ans d’après les dispositions des articles suivants, pendant les vingthuit premiers jours du mois de mai ou pendant les 28 jours qui suivent le 14 octobre alternativement. La statistique de mai 1921 s’appliquera exceptionnellement aux années 1920 à 1923 inclusivement; la statistique d’octobrenovembre 1924 s’appliquera aux années 1924 à 1926 inclusivement et ainsi de suite. 2055 2.— Dana le cas d’accession à Special statistics of now adhesions.l’Union d’un pays ayant des relations importantes, les pays de l’Union dont la situation pourrait, par suite de cette circonstance, se trouver modifiée sous le rapport du payement des frais de transit, ont la faculté de réclamer une statistique spéciale se rapportant exclusivement au pays nouvellement entré. 3.— Lorsqu’il se produit une Revision of transit accounts.modification importante dans le mouvement des correspondances et pour autant que cette modification affecte une période ou des périodes s’élevant à un total d’au moins douze mois, les Offices intéressés s’entendent pour reviser les comptes des frais de transit en cause. Dans ce cas, les sommes à payer par les Offices expéditeurs sont, soit augmentées, soit diminuées, soit partagées d’après les services intermédiaires réellement employés, mais les poids totaux qui servent de base aux nouveaux comptes doivent ordinairement être les mêmes que ceux des dépêches expédiées pendant la période de statistique mentionnée au § 1 du présent article. Au besoin, une statistique spéciale peut être employée pour régler le partage de ces poids entre les divers services empruntés. Aucune modification dans le mouvement des correspondances n’est considérée comme importante lorsqu’elle ne comporte pas une modification des frais de transit pour le transport en cause de plus de 10,000 francs par an. Exceptionnellement, l’établissement Special statistics as basis for new accounts.d’une statistique spéciale peut être exigé aussi pour la constatation de nouveaux poids totaux qui doivent servir de base pour les comptes nouveaux lorsqu’il y a une augmentation des poids totaux du transport en cause de 100 pour cent ou une diminution de 50 pour cent ou moins et que des comptes nouveaux subiraient en conséquence une modification de plus de 10.000 francs par an. 2056 XXXIII Closed mails.*Dépêches closes.* 1.—Stipulations governing exchange of. Les correspondances échangées en dépêches closes, entre deux Offices de l’Union ou entre un Office de l’Union et un Office étranger à l’Union, à travers le territoire ou au moyen des services d’un ou de plusieurs autres Offices, font l’objet d’un relevé *Post*, p. 2101.conforme au modèle *M* annexé au présent Règlement, qui est établi d’après les dispositions suivantes. Making up bags, etc.Pendant chaque période de statistique, des sacs ou des paquets distincts doivent être employés pour les “lettres et les cartes postales,” et pour les “autres objets”. Ces sacs ou paquets doivent respectivement être munis d’une étiquette “L. C.” et “A. O.” Lorsque le volume des dépêches le permet les sacs ou paquets distincts peuvent être réunis dans un seul sac collecteur qui doit être étiqueté “S. C.” Exception as to reg istered and special de livery articles.*Ante*, pp. 2036, 2037.Par dérogation aux dispositions des articles XXI et XXII du présent Règlement, chaque Administration a la faculté, pendant la période de statistique, de comprendre les objets recommandés et les envois exprès autres que les lettres et les cartes postales dans un des sacs ou paquets destinés aux autres objets, en faisant mention de ce fait sur la feuille d’avis; mais si, conformément aux dits articles XXI et XXII, ces objets sont compris dans un sac ou paquet à lettres, ils sont traités, en ce qui concerne la statistique de poids, comme faisant partie de envoi de lettres. 2.—If route or service unknown or uncertain. Lorsque la route à suivre et les services de transport à utiliser Sour les dépêches expédiées pen dant la période de statistique sont inconnus ou incertains, l’Office d’origine doit, à la demande de l’Administration destinataire, *Post*, p. 2105.préparer pour chaque dépêche un état conforme au modèle *T* annexé au présent Règlement. Cet état doit être transmis successivement, sans retard, aux différents services participant au 2057transport des dépêches; ces services inscrivent, l’un après l’autre, les renseignements concernant le transit sur cet état qui est renvoyé ensuite à l’Office d’origine joint au relevé modèle *M.**Ante*, p. 2101. 3.— En ce qui concerne les dépêches Gross weight.d’un pays de l’Union pour un autre pays de l’Union, le bureau d’échange expéditeur inscrit, à la feuille d’avis pour le bureau d’échange destinataire de la dépêche, le poids brut des lettres et des cartes postales et celui des autres objets, sans distinction de l’origine ni de la destination des correspondances. On ne tient pas compte des fractions de poids jusqu’à 500 grammes inclusivement, tandis que les fractions de poids supérieures à 500 grammes sont arrondies au total d’un kilogramme. Le poids brut comprend le poids de l’emballage, mais non pas celui des sacs vides emballés dans des sacs distincts, *Ante*, p, 1977.des sacs ne contenant que des correspondances exemptes de tous frais de transit (article 4, § 9, de *Ante*, p.2035.la Convention), des dépêches qui se composent uniquement d’une feuille d’avis négative (article XIX, § 9, du Règlement), ni celui des sacs collecteurs mentionnés dans le § 1 du présent article. Dans les cas où le poids brut des lettres et des cartes postales ainsi que celui des autres objets ne dépassent ni l’un ni l’autre 500 grammes, on ajoute, en tête de la feuille d’avis, la mention “Poids brut ne dépasse pas 500 grammes”. Ces indications sont vérifiées par le bureau d’échange destinataire. Si ce bureau constate que le poids réel des lettres et des cartes postales ou des autres objets dépasse de plus de 50 grammes le poids maximum, ou reste de plus de 50 grammes audessous du poids minimum (qui auraient pu donner lieu au poids arrondi inscrit dans la feuille d’avis), il rectifie ces indications et signale l’erreur immédiatement au bureau d’échange expéditeur au mo yen d’un bulletin de vérification. Si les différences de poids consta2058tées restent dans les limites précitées, les indications du bureau expéditeur ne sont pas modifiées et ne donnent pas lieu à un bulletin de vérification. 4.—Statements from creditor to debtor offices. Aussitôt que possible après la clôture des opérations de statistique, les bureaux destinataires dressent les relevés (modèle M) en autant d’expéditions qu’il y a d’Offices intéressés, y compris celui du lieu de départ. Ces relevés sont transmis par les bureaux d’échange qui les ont établis aux bureaux d’échange de Ol’ffice débiteur pour être revêtus de leur acceptation. Ceuxci, après avoir accepté ces relevés, les transmettent àl’Administration centrale dont ils relèvent, chargéede les répartir entrelesOffices intéressés. Si ces relevés ne sont pas Action if not received by debtor office.parvenus aux bureaux d’échange de l’Office débiteur dans le délai de quatre mois (six mois dans les échanges avec les pays d’outremer), à dater du jour de l’expédition de la dernière dépêche à comprendre dans la, statistique, les indications des bureaux expéditeurs y sont substituées. Ces bureaux dressent les relevés (modèle *M)*, en nombre suffisant, en ajoutant la mention “Les relevés *M* du bureau destinataire ne sont pas parvenus dans le délai réglementaire”, et les transmettent à l’Administration centrale dont ils relèvent, chargée de les répartir entre les Offices intéressés. 5.—Statement of closed mails to outside country through Union offices. En ce qui concerne les dépêches closes échangées entre un pays de l’Union et un pays étranger à l’Union, par l’intermédiaire d’un ou de plusieurs Offices de l’Union, les bureaux d’échange du pays de l’Union dressent, pour les dépêches expédiées ou reçues, un relevé (modèle *M*) qu’ils transmettent à l’Office de sortie ou d’entrée, lequel établit, à la fin de la période de statistique, un relevé général en autant d’expéditions qu’il y a d’Offices intéressés, y compris luimême et l’Office de l’Union débiteur. Une expédition 2059de ce relevé est transmise à l’Office débiteur, ainsi qu’à chacun des Offices qui ont pris part au transport des dépêches. 6.—List of mails in transit Aussitôt que possible après chaque période de statistique, les Administrations qui ont expédié des dépêches en transit envoient la liste de ces dépêches aux différentes Administrations dont ellesontempruntél’intermé di aire. Si cette liste indique des dépêches Explanatory note in statement not required.en transit, qui d’après les dispositions du § 3 précédent ne donnent pas lieu à l’établissement d’un relevé (modèle *M*), on y ajoute une mention explicative telle que “Sacs vides”, “Dépêches se composant uniquement d’une feuille d’avis négative”, “Rebuts” ou “Poids ne dépasse pas 500 grammes”. Les dépêches closes provenant Reforwarded closed mails.des pays au delà et qui sont réexpédiées insérées dans les dépèches en transit et inscrites dans e tableau II de la feuille d’avis, sont indiquées dans une partie spéciale de la liste. Pour les dépêches dont l’entrepôt Warehousing closed mails.dans un port donne lieu, aux termes du § 4 de l’article 4 de la *Ante*, p. 1976.Convention, à une rémunération, au profit de l’Office entreposeur, cet Office établit, par pays d’origine, un relevé journalier conforme Daily return.*Post*, p. 2103.au modèle *Pbis* annexé au présent Règlement et où figurent es indications relatives aux dépêches reçues du pays considéré, par l’entrepôt, pendant la période des 28 jours de la statistique des frais de transit, sans égard aux dates d’expédition et de ré-expédition des dites dépêches Les indications portées sur les Summarized statement.relevés journaliers sont récapitulées pour chaque pays d’origine, sur un état conforme au modèle *Pter* annexé au présent *Post*, p. 2103.Règlement et qui est envoyé à l’Ad ministration centrale du dit pays, accompagné des relevés modèle *Pbis* y afférents. 2060 L’état récapitulatif *Pter, revêtu* de l’acceptation, du Chef de l’Administration du pays débiteur, est transmis avec les relevés modèle *Pbis* à l’Administration centrale de l’Office dont relève l’entrepôt. 7.—Mails sent or received by ships of war. Il incombe aux Administrations des pays dont relèvent des bâtiments de guerre de dresser les relevés (modèle If) relatifs aux dépêches expédiées ou reçues par ces bâtiments. Les dépêches expédiées, pendant la période de statistique, à l’adresse des bâtiments de guerre doivent porter, sur des étiquettes, la date d’expédition. Reforwarded mails.Dans le cas où ces dépêches sont réexpédiées, l’Office réexpéditeur en informe l’Office du pays dont le bâtiment relève. XXXIV Articles in open mail.*Correspondances à découvert.* 1.—Letter bill. Les correspondances ordinaires et recommandées ainsi que les lettres de valeur déclarée provenant du pays même ou des pays au delà transmises à découvert pendant une période de statistique font l’objet d’une inscription sur la feuille d’avis, par le bureau d’échange expéditeur, rédigée comme suit: Correspondances & découvert. Lettres – – Cartes postales – Autres objects – Nombre. – – – Exempted articles not includod.Les correspondances exemptes de tous frais de transit *Ante*, p. 1976.conformément aux dispositions du § 9 de l’article 4 de la Convention ne sont pas comprises dans ces chiffres. 2.—Note if none. A déf aut de correspondances à découvert, le bureau expéditeur inscrit en tête de la feuille d’avis la mention: “Pas de correspondances à découvert.” 3.—Verification. Les inscriptions, dans les feuilles d’avis, sont vérifiées par le bureau d’échange destinataire. Si ce bureau constate des différences de plus de cinq lettres, 2061cartes postales ou autres obi’ets, il rectifie les inscriptions sur a feuille d’avis et signale l’erreur immédiatement au bureau expéditeur, au moyen d’un bulletin de vérification. Si la différence constatée reste dans la limite précitée, les indications du bureau expéditeur restent inaltérées et ne donnent pas lieu à un bulletin de vérification. Après avoir terminé les opérations statistiques le bureau d’échange destinataire dresse, en simple expédition, Statements.*Post*, p. 2102.des relevés (modèle *O*), qui sont transmis, sans retard, à l’Administration centrale dont il relève. XXXV *Compte de frais de transit.*Transit expense account. 1. Les poids des dépêches closes, Procedure for determining.le nombre des correspondances transmises à découvert et, le cas échéant, les nombres des sacs entreposés dans un port multipliés par 13 servent de base à des comptes particuliers établissant en francs et centimes les prix annuels de transit revenant à chaque Office. Dans le cas où ce multiplicateur ne se rapporte pas à la périodicité du service, ou lorsqu’il s’agit d’expéditions extraordinaires faites pendant la période de statistique, les Administrations intéressées s’entendent pour l’adoption d’un autre multiplicateur. Le soin d’établir les comptes incombe à l’Office créditeur, qui les transmet à l’Office débiteur. Le multiplicateur admis fait chaque fois règle pour toute la période de statistique. 2.— Afin de tenir compte du Allowance for exemptions.poids des sacs et de l’emballage et des catégories de correspondances exemptes de tous frais de transit en conformité des dispositions du § 9 de l’article 4 de la *Ante*, p. 1976.Convention, le montant total du compte des dépêches closes est réduit de 10%. 3.— Les comptes particuliers Detailed duplicate accounts.sont dressés, sur la base des relevés (modèles *M, O et Pbis*), en double *Post*, pp. 2101–2103.expédition, en conformité des modèles *N, P et Pler* annexés au présent Règlement, et transmis 2062aussitôt que possible et, au plus tard, avant l’expiration de 12 mois après la fin de la période de statistique, à l’Office débiteur. 4.—Acceptance of accounts. Si l’Office qui a envoyé le compte n’a reçu aucune observation rectificative dans un intervalle de 6 mois à compter de l’envoi, ce compte est considéré comme admis de plein droit. 5.—General account by International Bureau. Sauf entente contraire entre les Administrations intéressées, le décompte général comprenant les frais de transit territorial et maritime est établi par le Bureau International. 6.—Submission of accepted accounts of two Administrations. Aussitôt que les comptes particuliers entre deux Administrations sont approuvés ou considérés comme admis de plein droit (§ 4 du présent article), chacune des deux Administrations transmet sans retard, au Bureau International un relevé *Post*, p. 2194.(modèle *Q*) indiquant les montants totaux de ces comptes. Lors de la réception de ce relevé (modèle *Q*) d’une Administration, le Bureau International en avertit l’autre Administration intéressée. Agreement of differences.En cas de différences entre les indications correspondantes de deux Administrations, le Bureau International les invite à se mettre d’accord et à lui communiquer les sommes définitivement fixées. Acceptance of items iron one administration.Dans le cas où l’une seulement des Administrations aurait fourni le relevé (modèle *Q*), les indications de cette Administration font foi, à moins que le relevé correspondant de l’Administration retardataire ne soit parvenu au Bureau International en temps opportun pour l’établissement du prochain décompte annuel. Notice of no comment.Dans le cas du § 4 du présent article, les relevés doivent porter la mention “Aucune observation de l’Office débiteur n’est parvenue dans le délai réglementaire”. 2063 Dans le cas où deux Administrations Acceptance of special settlement by mutual agreements.se seraient mises d’accord pour faire un règlement spécial, e relevé portera la mention “Compte réglé à part—à titre d’information” et ne sera pas compris dans le décompte général. Cette mention est omise dans le cas du § 10 de l’article 4 de la Convention principale.*Ante*, p. 1977. 7.— Le Bureau International Notification of omissions allowed.effectue les suppressions prévues dans l’article 4, § 10 de la Convention *Ante*, p. 1977.principale, et en donne avis aux offices intéressés. 8.— Le Bureau International Annual liquidation account.établit, à la fin de chaque année, sur la base des relevés qui lui sont parvenus jusque là et qui sont considérés comme admis de plein droit, un décompte annuel des frais de transi t. Ce dé compte indique: *a*) Le total du Doit et de l’Avoir de chaque Administration; *b*) Le solde débiteur ou le solde créditeur de chaque Administration, représentant la différence entre le total du Doit et le total de l’Avoir; *c*) Les sommes à payer par les Administrations débitrices; *d*) Les sommes à recevoir par les Administrations créditrices. Les totaux des deux catégories Reduction in the number of payments.de soldes sous les lettres *a* à *d* doivent nécessairement être égaux. Le Bureau International pourvoit à ce que le nombre des payements à effectuer par les Administrations débitrices soit restreint dans la mesure du possible. 9.— Les décomptes annuels doivent Forwarding annual accounts.être transmis aux Administrations de l’Union par le Bureau International, aussitôt que possible et, au plus tard, avant l’expiration du premier trimestre de l’année qui suit l’année de leur établissement.; 2064 XXXVI *Liquidation des frais de transit.*Settlement of transit charges. 1.—Payment of balance between two countries.

Meaner of payment.En cas de payement au moyen de traites cellesci sont établies en monnaie du pays créancier pour un montant équivalent au cours du change au jour de l’achat à la quantité de francs-or que représente le solde à payer. Ces traites peuvent être également tirées sur un autre pays à la condition qu’elles représentent le même équivalent et que les frais d’escompte soient à la charge de l’Office débiteur. 2.—Time for payment. Le payement du solde annuel doit être effectué dans le plus bref délai possible, et, au plus tard, avant l’expiration d’un délai de 4 mois à partir de la date d’envoi du décompte par le Bureau International, pour les pays d’Europe et de 5 mois pour les autres pays. Passé ce délai, les sommes dues par un Office à un autre Office sont productives d’intérêt à raison de 7 pour cent Interest if delayed.l’an et à dater du jour d’expiration du dit délai.

The statistics of May, 1921, will apply exceptionally to the years 1920 to 1923 inclusive; the statistics of October-November, 1924, will apply to the years 1924 to 1926 inclusive, and so on. 2055 2.

When an important modification Revision of transit accounts.takes place in the flow of correspondence, and provided that such modification affects a period or periods amounting to a total of 12 months at least, the Offices concerned arrange with one another for a revision of the transit accounts in question. In that case the sums to be paid by the dispatching Offices are increased, reduced or shared according to the use actually made of the intermediate services; but the total weights which are the basis for the new accounts must ordinarily be the same as those of the mails dispatched during the statistical period mentioned in section 1 of the present article. If necessary, special statistics may be taken to determine the distribution of these weights among the various services used. No modification in the flow of correspondence is considered important unless it involves an alteration in transit payments for the services in question amounting to more than 10,000 francs per annum. Exceptionally, special statistics Special statistics as basis for new accounts.may also be demanded for the determination of fresh total weights to serve as basis for the new accounts, when there is an increase of total weight in the services in question of 100 per cent or a reduction of at least 50 per cent, and when fresh accounts should show, in consequence, a modification of more than 10,000 francs a year. 2056 XXXIII Closed mails.*Closed malls*. 1. Stipulations governing exchange of. Correspondence exchanged in closed mails between two Offices of the Union, or between an Office of the Union and one not a party to it, across the territory or by means of the services of one or more other Offices, forms the subject of a return in the form of *Post*, p. 2101.statement *M* attached to the present Regulations, which is compiled in accordance with the following rules: Making up bags, etc.During each statistical period separate bags or packets must be made up of “letters and post cards” and “other articles.” These bags or packets must be provided with a label “L. C.” and “A. O.” respectively. When the volume of the mails allows, the separate bags or packets may be inclosed in a single combined bag which must be labeled “S. C.” Exception as to reg istered and special de livery articles.*Ante*, pp. 2036, 2037.By way of exceptions to the stipulations of Articles XXI and XXII of the present Regulations, each Administration has the option, during the statistical period, of inclosing registered or express articles other than letters and post cards in one of the bags or packets intended for other articles, mentioning the fact on the letter bill; but if, in conformity with the said Articles XXI and XXII, these articles are inclosed in a bag or packet of letters, they are treated, so far as the statistics of weight are concerned, as forming part of the letter dispatch. 2. If route or service unknown or uncertain. When the route to be followed and the transport service to be used for the mails dispatched during the statistical period are unknown or uncertain, the Office of origin must, at the re quest of the Administration of *Post*, p. 2105.destination, prepare for each mail a return in the form of statement *T* annexed to the present Regulations. This statement must be transmitted in turn, without delay, to the various services taking 2057part in the conveyance of the mails; these services enter, in turn, the particulars concerning the transit on this statement which is then returned to the Office of origin annexed to the *Ante*, p. 2101.statement *M*. 3. As regards mails from one Gross weight.Union country for another Union country, the dispatching office of exchange enters, on the letter bill for the exchange office of destination the gross weight of the letters and post cards and that of the other articles, without distinction of the origin or destination of the correspondence. Fractions of weight up to 500 grams inclusive are ignored, while fractions of weight above 500 grams are rounded up to a kilogram. The gross weight includes the weight of the packing, but not that of empty bags inclosed in separate bags, of sacks containing only correspondence exempt from all transit charges (art. 4, sec. 9, *Ante*, p, 1977.of the Convention) of mails consisting solely of a blank letter bill (art. XIX, sec. 9, of the Regulations), *Ante*, p.2035.nor that of the combined bags mentioned in, sec. 1 of the present article. When the gross weight of the letters and post cards or of the other articles does not exceed 500 grams, the note “Poids brut ne dépasse pas 500 grammes ” (Gross weight does not exceed 500 grams) is entered at the head of the letter bill. These indications are checked by the office of exchange of destination. If that office finds that the actual weight of the letters and post cards or of the other articles exceeds by more than 50 grams the maximum weight, or is more than 50 grams below the minimum weight, which would have justified the round figures of weight entered on the letter bill, it corrects these entries and notifies the error immediately to the dispatching office of exchange by means of a verification note.

No. III A 2451. *Berlin, August 10, 1922.* Mr. Ambassador, In reply to your kind note of June 23, 1922, I have the honor to state to your Excellency From German Chancellor.as follows: The German Government is in agreement with the draft of an agreement communicated to it in the note mentioned, now that some changes in the text have been agreed upon with your Excellency. I have the honor to transmit herewith the draft modified accordingly. From the numerous conferences which have taken place with your Excellency, the German Government believes itself justified in assuming that it is not the intention of the American Government to insist in the proceedings of the Commission upon all the claims contemplated in the Versailles Treaty without exception, that it in particular does not intend to raise claims such as those included in Paragraphs 5 to 7 of Annex 1 of Article 244 of the Versailles Treaty (claims for reimbursement of military pensions paid by the American Government, and of allowances paid to American prisoners of war or their families and to the families of persons mobilised) or indeed claims going beyond the Treaty of August 25, 1921. The German Government would be grateful if your Excellency would confirm the correctness of this assumption. In the view of the German Government it would furthermore be in the interest of both Governments concerned that the work of the Commission be carried out as quickly as possible. In order to insure this it might be expedient to fix a period for the reporting of the claims to be considered by the Commission. The German Government, therefore, proposes that the Commission should consider only such claims as are brought before it within at least six months after its first meeting as provided in Article III of the above-named agreement. I should be obliged to your Excellency for a statement as to whether the American Government is in agreement herewith. At the same time I take advantage of this occasion to renew to you, Mr. Ambassador, the assurance of my most distinguished consideration. Wirth. 2204 *[The American Ambassador at Berlin to the German Chancellor.]* No, 128. American Embassy, *Berlin, August 10, 1922.* From American Ambassador.Mr. Chancellor: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your note of to-day's date transmitting the draft of the agreement enclosed to you in my note of June 28, as modified as a result of the negotiations that have been carried on between us. In accordance with the instructions that I have received from my Government, I am authorized by the President to state that he has no intention of pressing against Germany or of presenting to the Commission established under the claims agreement any claims not covered by the Treaty of August 25, 1921, or any claims falling within Paragraphs 5 to 7, inclusive, of the annex following Article 244 of the Treaty of Versailles. With regard to your suggestion that the Commission shall only consider such claims as are presented to it within six months after its first meeting, as provided for in Article III, I have the honor to inform you that I am now in receipt of instructions from my Government to the effect that it agrees that notices of all claims to be presented to the Commission must be filed within the period of six months as above stated. I avail myself once more of the opportunity to renew to you, Mr. Chancellor, the assurances of my most distinguished consideration. A. B. Houghton.

Jos joku kartalle merkitty paketti puuttuu, on, vielä yhden virkamiehen todettua seikan, lähetyksestä kartalle tehty merkintä ylipyyhittävä ja asiasta viipymättä lähetettävä oiksisuilmoitus edellämain kavalla. Jos joku paketti vastaanotetaan vahingoittuneessa tai puutteellisessa kunnossa, on siitä samalla tapaa oikaisuilmoitus lähetettävä, ilmoittamalla kaikki lähemmät asiaa koskevat seikat. 5. Ellei lähettävä postitoimisto ole saanut mitään oikaisuilmoitus ta tai ilmoitusta virheellisyydestä, on katsottava, että pakettiposti on asianmukaisesti otettu vastaan ja että se kaikissa suhteissa on huomattu oikeaksi.

Jos pakettia ei ole voitu antaa postista osoitteen mukaan tahi sitä on kieltäydytty vastaanottamasta, on paketti 30 päivän kuluttua san vastaanottamisesta osoitepostitoimistossa, kummastakin maasta maksutta palautettava suoraan lähettävään vaihtopostitoimistoon; postiinjättömaa kantakoon lähettäjältä paketin palauttamisesta alkuperäistä kuljetusmaksua vastaavan määrän. 2220 Postiinjgttömaahan ei kuitenkaan palauteta II artiklan mukaan kiellettyjä paketteja eikä sellaisia, jotka eivät täytä sanotussa artiklassa määrättyjä ehtoja suuruuteen ja painoon nähden, vaan meneteltäköön sellaisten pakettien suhteen lopullisesti osoitemaan tullilakien ja määräysten mukaan. Jos perillesaamaton paketti sisältää esineitä, jotka helposti voivat pahentua tai pilaantua, voidaan ne tarpeen vaatiessa heti hävittää tahi myös, jos niin katsotaan sopivaksi, ilman edellä-käypää tiedoksiantoa ja laillisia muotoja noudattamatta myydä asianomaisen hyväksi; myyntiä koskevista tarkemmista seikoista tulee toisen postitoimiston ilmoittaa toiselle. XII Artikla. Jos kirjattu paketti on hukkaantunut, vahingoittunut tal jotakin sen sisällyksestä kuljetettaessa anastettu, on ylivoimaista tapahtumaa lukuunottamatta sen maan postihallinto, jonka alueella vahinko on sattunut, jos on olemassa todistuksia hukkaantumisesta, valiingosta tai anastuksesta, velvollinen maksamaan paketin lähettäjälle korvauksen, joka vastaa hukkaantumisen, vahingon tai anastuksen todellista arvoa, kuitenkin niin, ettei korvaus saa olla viittäkymmentä frangia suurempi kustakin kirjatusta paketista. Vastuunalaisuuden määräämistapaan nähden hukkaantumisen, vahingon tai anastuksen tapahtuessa sekä maksun ja korvausvaatimuksen järjestelyn suhteen on noudatettava Roomassa tehdyn maail-manpostiliittokirjan 8 artiklan sekä sen toimitusohjesäännön XIII, artiklan määräyksiä kirjattujen lähetysten korvaamisesta Maailmanpostiliiton alueella. Korvausvaatimus älköön olko pätevä, ellei sitä esitetä vuoden kuluessa siitä päivästä lukien, jolloin kirjattu paketti on jätetty postissa kuljetettavaksi. XIII Artikla. Kummankin sopimusmaan postihallinnolle pidätetään oikeus, ilmoitettuaan siitä edeltäkäsin toisen maan postihallinnolle, koroittaa tahi alentaa niitä posti-maksuja, jotka se tämän sopimuksen IV, V ja XI art Iklan perusteella kantaa hyväkseen. 2221 XIV Artikla. Yhdysvaltain Pääpostitirehtööri ja Suomen postíhallitus ovat oikeutetut yhteisesti antamaan lisäksi järjestys ja yksityiskohtaisia määräyksiä, Jotka aikaa myöten voivat näyttäytyä tarpeellisiksi tämän sopimuksen täytäntöönpanemista varten, ja voivat he yhteisestä sopimuksesta määrätä, millä ehdoilla sallitaan postissa lähettää esineitä, joiden kuljetus tämän sopimuksen II artiklan mukaan on kielletty. XV Artikla. Tätä sopimusta on sovellettava helmikuun 26 päivästä 1921 alkaen, ja tulee sen olla voimassa siihen asti, kunnes se molemminpuolisesta sopimuksesta kumotaan; kuitenkin voidaan se jomman-kumman postihallinnon toivomuksesta kumota 6 kuukautta edeltäpäin toiselle hallinnolle tehdyn irtisanomisen jälkeen. Laadittu kaksin kappalein ja allekirjoitettu Washingtomssa heinäkuun 21 päivänä 1922 ja Helsingissä tammikuun 12 päivänä 1922.

Thanksgiving Bay, 1921.Preamble.That season has come when, alike in pursuance of a devout people’s time-honored custom and in grateful recognition of favoring national fortunes, it is proper that the President should summon the nation to a day of devotion, of thanksgiving for blessings bestowed, and of prayer for guidance in modes of life that may deserve continuance of Divine favor. Foremost among our blessings is the return of peace, and the approach to normal ways again. The year has brought us again into relations of amity with all nations, after a long period of struggle and turbulence. In thankfulness therefor, we may well unite in the hope that Providence will vouchsafe approval to the things we have done, the aims which have guided us, the aspirations which have inspired us. We shall be prospered as we shall deserve prosperity, seeking not alone for the material things but for those of the spirit as well; earnestly trying to help others; asking, before all else, the privilege of service. As we render thanks anew for the exaltation which came to us, we may fittingly petition that moderation and wisdom shall be granted to rest upon all who are in authority, in the tasks they must discharge. Their hands will be steadied, their purposes strengthened, in answer to our prayers. Ours has been a favored nation in the bounty which God has bestowed upon it. The great trial of humanity, though indeed we bore our part as well as we were able, left us comparatively little scarred. It is for use to recognize that we have been thus favored, and when we gather at our altars to offer up thanks, we will do well to pledge, in humility and all sincerity, our purpose to prove deserving. We have been raised up and preserved in national power and consequence, as part of a plan whose wisdom we can not question. Thus believing, we can do no less than hold our nation the willing instrument of the Providence which has so wonderfully favored us. Opportunity for very great service awaits us if we shall prove equal to it. Let our prayers be raised, for direction in the right paths. Under God, our responsibility is great; to our own first, to all men afterward; to all mankind in God’s own justice. Thursday, November 24, 1921, designated as a day of general thanksgiving.Now, therefore, I, Warren G. Harding, President of the United States of America, hereby designate Thursday, the twenty-fourth day of November, to be observed by the people as a day of Thanksgiving, devotion and prayer; urging that at their hearthsides and their altars they will give thanks for all that has been rendered unto them, and will pray for a continuance of the Divine fortune which has been showered so generously upon this nation.

It is particularly recommended that effort be addressed to a practical expression of community interest in public education. To that end organizations for civic advancement and social betterment are earnestly requested, when it can be made practicable, to provide programs which will inform the people concerning the vital needs in this direction, instruct them regarding shortcomings and deficiencies in present facilities, and bring to their attention specific, constructive methods by which, in the respective communities, these deficiencies may be supplied. The subject of public education has always been very close to the American heart, and to the fact that it has been made a chief responsibility of local governmental units, we largely owe the wide diffusion of educational facilities.

Therefore it is suggested that the pulpit, press, schools, and public gatherings be enlisted in behalf of this special effort.

A PROCLAMATION. Fire Prevention Day.Preamble.It has become a nationwide custom to observe October 9, anniversary of the great Chicago fire of 1871, as National Fire Prevention Day; and in recognition of this excellent precedent, I am herewith directing the attention of all citizens, especially those in authority in the states and cities, to the desirability of continuing the observance this year and making it as impressive as possible. It has long been a reproach to our country that by reason of poor construction, inadequate facilities for fire prevention, and an all too general carelessness about possible causes of conflagration, our fire waste reaches figures year after year which are not approached in any other country in the world. Mindful of the fire waste which is expressed in figures so huge as to be appalling, it may be emphasized that in a time when all communities need to conserve resources in hand and to promote production in every possible way, there ought to be especial effort to minimize such losses. To this end, Appeal for the observance of October 8, 1922, as.Therefore, I, Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, appeal to the public authorities of the country, by such measures as to them may seem most effective, and to citizens generally, to take steps for the observance of Monday, October 9, as Fire Prevention Day. I suggest the special desirability of impressing upon the teachers and pupils in the schools, and all workers in industrial establishments, the importance of precautionary measures for avoidance of fires. By such measures, earnestly undertaken and vigorously enforced, we shall contribute to a vast economy of the national resources and of the product of human effort; as well as to a saving of many hundreds of human lives now needlessly sacrificed. 2285 In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

By the President of the United States of America A PROCLAMATION Thanksgiving Day, 1922.Preamble.IN the beginnings of our country the custom was established by the devout fathers of observing annually a day of Thanksgiving for the bounties and protection which Divine Providence had extended throughout the year. It has come to be perhaps the most characteristic of our national observances, and as the season approaches for its annual recurrence, it is fitting formally to direct attention to this ancient institution of our people and to call upon them again to unite in its appropriate celebration. The year which now approaches its end has been marked, in the experience of our nation, by a complexity of trials and of triumphs, of difficulties and of achievements, which we must regard as our inevitable portion in such an epoch as that through which all mankind is moving. As we survey the experience of the passing twelvemonth we shall find that our estate presents very much to justify a nation-wide and most sincere testimony of gratitude for the bounty which has been bestowed upon us. Though we have lived in the shadow of the hard consequences of great conflict, our country has been at peace and has been able to contribute toward the maintenance and perpetuation of peace in the world. We have seen the race of mankind make gratifying progress on the way to permanent peace, toward order and restored confidence in its high destiny. For the Divine guidance which has enabled us, in growing fraternity with other peoples, to attain so much of progress; for the bounteous yield which has come to us from the resources of our soil and our industry, we owe our tribute of gratitude, and with it our acknowledgment of the duty and obligation to our own people and to the unfortunate, the suffering, the distracted of other lands. Let us in all humility acknowledge how great is our debt to the Providence which has generously dealt with us, and give devout assurance of unselfish purpose to play a helpful and ennobling part in human advancement. It is much to be desired that in rendering homage for the blessings which have come to us, we should earnestly testify our continued and increasing aim to make our own great fortune a means of helping and serving, as best we can, the cause of all humanity. Thursday, November 30, 1921, designated as a day of general thanksgiving.Now, Therefore, I, WARREN G. HARDING, President of the United States of America, do designate Thursday, the thirtieth day of November, as a day of Thanksgiving, supplication and devotion. I recommend that the people gather at their family altars and in their houses of worship to render thanks to God for the bounties they have enjoyed and to petition that these may be continued in the year before us. 2289 IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.

By the President of the United States of America A PROCLAMATION THE ideals of democratic government and democratic education American education week.Preamble.were planted simultaneously in our country. The fathers rightly believed that only a people trained to vision of public needs and duties could develop and maintain the institutions of popular government. The system of universal education, established m the beginnings, has developed with the country and become one of the characteristic features of our life. In it we have laid the foundation of that system of American culture which has enabled us to absorb and assimilate millions who have come to us from many countries, bringing the traditions of widely varying institutions. In order that we may keep in mind the need constantly to improve our educational system, it is proposed that the week of December 3–9, inclusive, be set aside for special observance as American Education Week. It is recommended to the Governors of the States that they cooperate with the educational and civic authorities of their commonwealths to make the week a period for revival of interest in the broad work of national education. 2290 It is gratifying to know that in a time when public burdens have lain very heavy upon the people there has been everywhere a determined purpose to maintain education unimpaired, in order that the coming generation may be equipped, regardless of sacrifices in the present, for the increasing responsibilities which it must bear. “Without vision the people perish”. Without education, there can be little vision. Of education it may be said that “It is twice blest: it blesseth him that gives and him that takes”. It will be greatly worth the effort if, as an incident to the observance of Education Week, we can impress this thought upon the young manhood and womanhood of the Nation and redirect their interest and patriotic zeal to the idea of making a proper contribution to educational work. It is regrettable that so few young men and women, equipped for such service, are nowadays disposed to give their time and talents to teaching. Education needs their youth, eagerness, zeal and enthusiasm. There is no school of discipline more effective than that in which the teacher goes to school. We could do no greater service than by convincing those young men and women who have enjoyed educational opportunities, that they owe a reasonable share of their time and energies to teaching. The strength and security of the Nation will always rest in the intelligent body of its people. Our education should implant conceptions of public duty and private obligation broad enough to envisage the problems of a greatly distraught world. More than anything else, men and women need the capacity to see with clear eye and to contemplate with open, unprejudiced mind, the issues of these times. Only through a properly motivated and generously inspired process of education can this be accomplished. Setting aside December 3–9, 1922, to be observed as American Education Week.In view, then, of these and many other considerations, I hereby proclaim the week of December 3–9 as American Education Week, recommending to the appropriate national, state and local authorities that they give their cordial support and cooperation to making its observance inspirational and beneficial. Civic organizations and religious bodies may render special service by their cooperation; and particularly it is recommended that parents enlist themselves in behalf of closer understanding between the school and the home, with the purpose of mutual helpfulness. IN CONSIDERATION AND WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed.
