extends through December 31, 1998.
Effective on October 21, 1998, you are directed to increase the
current limits for the following categories, as provided for under
the Uruguay Round Agreement on Textiles and Clothing:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Category Adjusted limit \1\
------------------------------------------------------------------------
435....................................... 28,893 dozen.
448....................................... 25,534 dozen.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The limits have not been adjusted to account for any imports
exported after December 31, 1997.

The Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements has
determined that these actions fall within the foreign affairs
exception of the rulemaking provisions of 5 U.S.C. 553(a)(1).
Sincerely,
D. Michael Hutchinson,
Acting Chairman, Committee for the Implementation of Textile
Agreements.
