Dear Mr. Speaker:   (Dear Mr. President:)

As required by section 204(c) of the International Emergency Economic
Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1703(c)) and section 401(c) of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1641(c)), I transmit herewith a 6-month periodic
report on the national emergency declared by Executive Order 12924 of
August 19, 1994, to deal with the threat to the national security, foreign
policy, and economy of the United States caused by the lapse of the Export
Administration Act of 1979.

                              Sincerely,



                              WILLIAM J. CLINTON
