94 STAT. 3793 Proclamation 4791 of September 10, 1980 Veterans Day, 1980 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Each year we set aside a special day to thank America’s veterans for their unselfish sacrifice and service. On Veterans Day, 1980, we pay tribute to 30 million living and 14 million deceased patriots who served in our Armed Forces so that you and 1 might live in freedom. We must honor these men and women as they deserve, not only with special ceremonies, not only through our support of veterans’ benefits and services, but also by committing ourselves anew to the task of ensuring that the freedoms they helped to preserve and the Nation they fought to defend will be safe and secure for future generations of Americans.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, JIMMY CARTER, President of the United States of America, do hereby invite every citizen of our great country to join with me in observing Veterans Day on Tuesday, November 11, 1980. with appropriate ceremonies and activities. I call upon all Americans to support the Veterans Day theme—“A Grateful Nation Remembers”—and I urge families, friends, neighbors and fellow citizens to show their gratitude by visiting ill and disabled veterans in Veterans Administration medical centers across the country.
I ask that Federal. State, and local government officials arrange for the display of the flag of the United States on this special day—the flag under which our veterans served with honor, pride, and distinction. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this tenth day of September, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty, and of the Independence of the United States of America, the two hundred and fifth. JIMMY CARTER 4792 September 15, 1980 Proclamation To Suspend in Part the Tariff Concessions on Certain Lead Products and To Correct Technical Errors Digitization Vendor By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation Proclamation 4792 of September 15, 1980 Proclamation To Suspend in Part the Tariff Concessions on Certain Lead Products and To Correct Technical Errors By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation 1.
On October 31, 1979, under the authority of section 101(a)(1) of the Trade Act of 1974 (the Trade Act) (19 U.S.C. 2111(a)(1)), the United States entered into a trade agreement with the United Mexican States (Mexico) containing certain tariff concessions by the United States. These tariff concessions94 STAT. 3794[19 USC 2111](/us/usc/t19/s2111) note.were implemented by Proclamation No. 4707 of December 11, 1979, beginning January 1, 1980. This agreement provides that, under certain circumstances which now exist, the United States may suspend or withdraw these concessions in whole or in part 2.
An expectation, which this agreement stated to be the basis for the United States concessions therein, has not materialized, and only partially equivalent substitute concessions have been received from Mexico. 3. Section 125 of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2135) authorizes the President, following public hearings, to withdraw, suspend, or modify the application of trade agreement obligations of the United States under certain circumstances, which now exist. Public hearings on possible modification or suspension of concessions to Mexico were held on June 12, 1980. by the Office of the United States Trade Representative. 4.
I have decided, under the provisions regarding suspension in the October 31, 1979 agreement and under section 125 of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2135), to suspend in part, until otherwise proclaimed by the President, the tariff concessions which were granted to Mexico in the October 31, 1979 agreement because adequate substitute compensatory concessions have not been provided by Mexico at this time. 5. [19 USC 2111](/us/usc/t19/s2111) note; *ante*, p. 3765. As a distinct matter, it has been determined that certain technical errors in Proclamation No. 4707 and Proclamation No. 4768, which proclamations made numerous changes to the provisions of the Tariff Schedules of the United States
(TSUS)(19 U.S.C. 1202), require correction. NOW, THEREFORE, I, JIMMY CARTER. President of the United States of America, acting under the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the statutes of the United States, including sections 125 and 604 of the Trade Act (19 U.S.C. 2135 and 2483), do proclaim that:
