FOREIGN-TRADE ZONES BOARD
ORDER NO. 34
Any Article of Czechoslovak Origin
Revoking Order Prohibiting Manipulation,
Manufacture, or Any Other Process of Treatment
in Foreign-Trade Zone
Pursuant to authority contained in the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June 18, 1934, as amended (48
Stat. 998-1003; 19 USC 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade Zones Board has adopted the following
order which is promulgated for the information and guidance of all concerned:
Whereas, upon the recommendation of the Department of State, the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
on January 9, 1953, issued its order No. 30 (18 FR 375, Jan. 16, 1953), providing that no
manipulation, manufacture, or any other process of treatment of any article of Czechoslovak
origin shall be allowed in a foreign-trade zone; and
Whereas, the Department of State, upon reviewing the situation in light of the present
circumstances, considers that it now is no longer against the public interest to permit
manipulation or manufacture of goods of Czechoslovak origin in a foreign-trade zone;
Now, therefore, upon the recommendation of the Department of State, the Foreign-Trade Zones
Board, after full consideration and a finding that it is in the public interest, and under
the authority granted to it by section 15(c) of said Foreign-Trade Zones Act, hereby revokes
said Order No. 30.
It is found that compliance with the notice, public rule making procedure, of the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 USC 1003) is impractical, unnecessary, and contrary to the
public interest in connection with the issuance of this order, because rather than adversely
affecting the rights of interested persons, it restores a privilege to such persons. The
effective date of this order is, therefore, the date of publication in the Federal Register.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 29th day of July 1953.
