Imports From Countries Making Discriminations
Sec. 181. Exclusion of imports from countries making
discriminations
Whenever the President shall be satisfied that unjust
discriminations are made by or under the authority of any foreign state
against the importation to or sale in such foreign state of any product
of the United States, he may direct that such products of such foreign
state so discriminating against any product of the United States as he
may deem proper shall be excluded from importation to the United States;
and in such case he shall make proclamation of his direction in the
premises, and therein name the time when such direction against
importation shall take effect, and after such date the importation of
the articles named in such proclamation shall be unlawful. The President
may at any time revoke, modify, terminate, or renew any such direction
as, in his opinion, the public interest may require.
