WHEREAS I have taken such action as I deem necessary to bring the United States schedules annexed to foreign trade agreements into conformity with the Tariff Schedules of the United States as provided for in Section 102 of the Tariff Classification Act of 1962, as amended (P.L. 87–456, 76 Stat. 72, as amended by Section 257(g) of P.L. 87–794, [19 USC prec. 1001](/us/usc/t19/s1001).76 Stat. 882); and WHEREAS I have determined that the rates and provisions proclaimed in paragraph 1 of this proclamation are required or appropriate to carry out foreign trade agreements to which the United States is a party:
