MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Proclamation Establishing G a Cheese Import Quota
Clayton Yeutter
for Uruguay
Attached for your signature is a proclamation which will give
a small cheese import quota to Uruguay. Uruguay does not have
a quota at present because the country has no historical record
of exporting cheese to the United States. The Trade Agreements
Act of 1979 allows you to proclaim import quotas on certain
cheeses up to 111, 000 tons. You have thus far allocated 109,000
tons of this quantity to foreign supplying countries. The 250-ton
quota for Uruguay will come out of the unallocated 2,000 tons
which remains.
The Trade Policy Committee agencies are unanimous in recommending
that this action be taken. The National Security Council and
the Department of State are particularly supportive because
this action will encourage economic activity of benefit to Uruguay's
new democratic government.

MEMORANDUM TO THE HONORABLE EDWIN MEESE, III
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
FROM:
Clayton Yeutter
SUBJECT:
Proclamation Establishing a Cheese Quota for
Uruguay
Attached for your consideration as to form and legality is a
proclamation, entitled "To Amend the Quantitative Limitations
on Imports of Certain Cheeses," that will establish a quota
for the importation of certain cheeses from Uruguay. The procla-
mation has received interagency clearance (see the attached
TPSC paper).
Section 1 of proposed proclamation indicates the legal authority
under which the importation of cheese is restricted and the
total amount of quota cheese which may enter the United States
in any calendar year: 111,000 metric tons.
Section 2 indicates which Presidential proclamations imposed
the quantitative restrictions that are in effect now with respect
to cheese imports and where these restrictions appear in the
Tariff Schedules of the United States.
Section 3 indicates that modifications in these restrictions
are necessary to permit imports of certain cheese from Uruguay
and that these modifications would neither change existing alloca-
tions nor raise the total above the 111,000 metric ton limit.
The operative paragraph proclaims the modification of item 950.10
of Part 3 of the Appendix to the Tariff Schedules of the United
States to provide for the entry under this item of 555,150 pounds,
or 250,000 kilograms, of cheese from Uruguay.
Because of the January 1, 1986 effective date, I ask that you
provide an expeditious review.

Ed - Sorry about the tight time frame.
TO AMEND THE QUANTITATIVE LIMITATIONS
ON IMPORTS OF CERTAIN CHEESES
-
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
1. Import limitations have been imposed on certain
cheeses pursuant to the provisions of section 22 of the
Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933, as amended, 7 U.S.C. 624.
Section 701 of the Trade Agreements Act of 1979, P.L. 96-39
(the "Act") requires that the President proclaim limitations
on the quantity of cheese of the types specified therein which
may enter the United States in any calendar year after 1979.
The Act provides that the annual aggregate quantity of such
types of cheese entered shall not exceed 111,000 metric tons.
2. By Presidential Proclamation No. 4708 of
December 11, 1979, and Presidential Proclamation No. 4811
of December 30, 1980, I established quantitative limitations
on imports of such cheeses as required by the Act. Such
quantitative limitations appear in Part 3 of the Appendix
to the Tariff Schedules of the United States (TSUS).
3. In order to permit imports of certain cheeses
from Uruguay, the quantitative limitations set forth in the
Appendix to the TSUS must be modified. This modification does
not affect any existing quota allocations nor increase the
annual aggregate quantity of quota cheese to an amount in
excess of 111,000 metric tons.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, acting under the authority vested in
me by the Constitution and the statutes of the United States
of America, including Section 701 of the Trade Agreements Act
2
of 1979 and Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act
of 1933, as amended, do hereby proclaim that Part 3 of the
Appendix to the Tariff Schedules of the United States is
modified effective January 1, 1986, as follows:
Item 950.10 is modified by adding the following
new line immediately after the line beginning with
"Argentina":
"Uruguay
551,150
250,000".
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of January, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and eighty-six, and of the Independence of
the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.

NATIONAL JAYCEE WEEK, 1986
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Nowhere has the spirit of voluntarism shone more brightly
than among the members of the United States Jaycees and its
affiliated State and local organizations. Currently numbering
more than 268,000 members and more than 6,500 chapters in 50
States, Jaycees have actively involved themselves in the life
of our communities by providing leadership, rendering ser-
vices, and returning the biblical hundredfold in a variety
of endeavors. Their noteworthy contributions include such
humanitarian projects as assistance to the elderly, fund-
raising for the disadvantaged, cardiopulmonary resuscitation
programs, energy conservation, and countless other efforts to
address community needs.
The heart and soul of the Jaycee philosophy may be found
in its brief 65-word Creed:
"We believe:
That faith in God gives meaning
and purpose to human life;
That the brotherhood of man transcends
the sovereignty of nations;
That economic justice can best be won
by free men through free enterprise;
That government should be of laws
rather than of men;
That earth's great treasure lies in
human personality;
And that service to humanity is the
best work of life.'
In recognition of the accomplishments of the United
States Jaycees, the Congress of the United States, by Senate
Joint Resolution 213, has designated the week beginning
January 19, 1986, as "National Jaycee Week" and authorized and
requested the President to issue a proclamation in observance
of this event.
2
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, do hereby designate the week
beginning January 19, 1986, as National Jaycee Week, and I
call upon the people of the United States to observe that
period with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this

TRUCK AND BUS SAFETY WEEK, 1986
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Truck and bus safety is important to all Americans. More
than 5 million trucks travel more than 135 billion miles each
year on our highways transporting raw materials, finished
goods, food, and other essential products and services. Buses
annually carry millions of Americans to over 10,000 cities and
communities. Clearly, the safe maintenance and operation of
trucks and buses is vital to the health and safety of all
users of our Nation's thoroughfares.
The truck and bus industry is a major employer in our
country, essential to the Nation and to the smooth and safe
flow of commerce. The safe operation of trucks and buses is
of great consequence to the motoring public with which they
share the roads. Safety compliance not only saves lives, it
is also sound business practice. It improves the image of the
industry and enhances profitability.
Ultimately, the most important means to improve safe
operation are those activities undertaken by the truck and bus
industry itself. Therefore, I challenge each and every
person, business, and association involved in the industry to
make a commitment to encourage safe truck and bus operations.
I am convinced that such an effort will reward everyone. The
industry must also inform the public that safety is one of its
highest priorities.
January is a particularly appropriate time to direct the
Nation's attention to special care in the operation of
vehicles on the highways, because of ice and snow conditions
in many parts of the country. Observance of this week should
help to establish an increased safety consciousness throughout
the entire year.
2
I call upon our State governments to increase their
efforts to improve safety compliance, using their own
resources as well as funds provided by the Federal government.
I call upon industry, labor, and the professional drivers of
the country to continue to improve the safe operation of
trucks and buses. Very special care must be exercised in
seeing to the safe maintenance and operation of trucks
carrying extremely hazardous materials.
The Congress has, by Senate Joint Resolution 235,
designated the week beginning January 26, 1986 as "Truck and
Bus Safety Week" and authorized and requested the President to
issue a proclamation in observance of this event.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week of
January 26 through February 1, 1986, as Truck and Bus Safety
Week, and I call upon all Americans to observe this week with
appropriate activities and informational programs.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of January, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and eighty-six, and of the Independence of
the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.

flow of commerce. The safe operation of trucks and buses is
of great consequence to the motoring public with which they
share the roads. Safety compliance not only saves lives, it
is also sound business practice. It improves the image of the
industry and enhances profitability.
Ultimately, the most important means to improve safe
operation are those activities undertaken by the truck and bus
industry itself. Therefore, I challenge each and every
person, business, and association involved in the industry to
make a commitment to encourage safe truck and bus operations.
I am convinced that such an effort will reward everyone. The
industry must also inform the public that safety is one of its
highest priorities.
January is a particularly appropriate time to direct the
Nation's attention to special care in the operation of
vehicles on the highways, because of ice and snow conditions
in many parts of the country. Observance of this week should
help to establish an increased safety consciousness throughout
the entire year.
I call upon our State governments to increase their
efforts to improve safety compliance, using their own
resources as well as funds provided by the Federal government.
I call upon industry, labor, and the professional drivers of
the country to continue to improve the safe operation of
trucks and buses. Very special care must be exercised in
seeing to the safe maintenance and operation of trucks
carrying extremely hazardous materials.
The Congress has, by Senate Joint Resolution 235,
designated the week beginning January 26, 1986 as "Truck and
Bus Safety Week" and authorized and requested the President to
issue a proclamation in observance of this event.

TRUCK AND BUS SAFETY WEEK
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Truck and bus safety is important to all Americans. There
are over 5 million trucks traveling more than 135 billion miles
each year on our highways, in order to supply the Nation with raw
materials, finished goods, food, and other essential products and
services. Buses annually carry millions of Americans to over
10,000 cities and communities. Clearly, the safe maintenance and
operation of trucks and buses is vital to the health and safety
of all users of our Nation's roads, streets, and highways.
The truck and bus industry is a major employer in our
country. Truck and bus movement is important to the Nation and
to the smooth and safe flow of commerce. The safe movement of
trucks and business is most crucial to the motoring public with
which they share the roads. We cannot take safety compliance
lightly. Furthermore, safety compliance is a sound business
practice, which improves the image of the industry as it enhances
members' profitability.
Ultimately, the most important means to improve safe
operation are those activities undertaken by the truck and bus
industry itself. Therefore, I challenge each and every involved
person, business, and association to make a commitment to
encourage safe truck and bus operations. I believe that such an
effort will reward everyone. I also encourage all those involved
with this industry to inform the public that safety is one of the
industry's highest priorities.
January is a particularly appropriate time to direct the
Nation's attention to special care in the operation of vehicles
on the highways, because of ice and snow conditions throughout
the country. Moreover, observance of this week will help
establish an increased safety consciousness for the entire year.
I am calling on our State Governments to increase their
efforts to improve safety compliance, both by their own resources
and with the existing funds provided by the Federal government.
I call upon industry, labor, and the professional drivers of the
country to continue to improve the safe operation of trucks and
business throughout the country. In particular, we must give a
very high priority to the safe maintenance and operation of
trucks carrying extremely hazardous materials.
The Congress has, by Senate Joint Resolution 235, designated
the week beginning January 26, 1986 as "Truck and Bus Safety
Week" and authorized and requested the President to issue a
proclamation in observance of this event.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the United
States of America, do hereby proclaim the week of January 26
through February 1, 1986, as Truck and Bus Safety Week, and I
call upon all Americans to observe this week with appropriate
ceremonies.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of January, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and eighty-six, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two hundred and tenth.

NATIONAL SAFE BOATING WEEK, 1986
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Americans increasingly look to the water for recreation
and relaxation. This year, approximately one-quarter of us
will enjoy boating in one or more of its many and varied
forms. Therefore, it is important that all those involved in
recreational boating should put a high priority on safety.
They should know and obey the rules of safe boating, and show
courtesy and consideration on the water.
In the first place, all boaters should wear personal
flotation devices while on the water. According to the
United States Coast Guard, a significant percentage of those
who drowned in boating accidents last year might have been
saved had they observed this rule.
The theme of this year's National Safe Boating Week --
"Be Smart! Take a Boating Course!" -- emphasizes the
importance of learning the safe way to enjoy the sport of
boating. Every year, more and more people engage in a variety
of boating activities and our Nation's waters are increasingly
crowded with a growing assortment of watercraft ranging from
sailboards and canoes to high-speed motorboats. Lack of
knowledge on the part of boat operators makes them liable to
expose themselves unnecessarily to hazards, thus endangering
not only themselves, but others as well. A review of fatal
boating accidents shows that over two-thirds were the fault
of the operator. And less than one-quarter of these operators
had received any kind of boating education. Through the
observance of National Safe Boating Week, 1986, all Americans
should be alerted to the importance of learning the rules of
safe boating.

In recognition of the need for boating safety, the
Congress, by joint resolution approved June 4, 1958, as
amended (36 U.S.C. 161), authorized and requested the
President to proclaim annually the week commencing on the
first Sunday in June as "National Safe Boating Week."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the
United States of America, do hereby proclaim the week begin-
ning June 1, 1986, as National Safe Boating Week. I also
invite the Governors of the States, Puerto Rico, the Northern
Mariana Islands, the Virgin Islands, Guam, and American Samoa,
and the Mayor of the District of Columbia to provide for the
observance of this week.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of

nineteen hundred and eighty-six, and of the Independence of
the United States of America the two hundred and tenth.
