Applications for license to export helium gas under allotments in accordance with the provisions of §§ 2.6, 2.7 shall be made to the Secretary of State and shall include information which will adequately identify the aircraft for use in which the helium gas is intended. Such identification shall be the same as that used in the request for the allotment under which application is being made.**

2.10 Helium gas intended for the inflation of an aircraft of American registry. Helium gas leaving the United States when used for or intended for the inflation of an aircraft will not be considered as exported within the meaning of section 4 of the Act (50 Stat. 887; 50 U.S.C., Sup., 165) when it is the intention of the owner of the aircraft that it shall remain under American registry and shall be commanded by a duly certificated United States airman during the entire period of its sojourn abroad, and when there is no intention on the part of the owner of the aircraft to dispose of the helium gas in any foreign country.**

2.11 Shipper's export declaration (Customs Form 7525). The shipper's export declaration (Customs Form 7525) or such other document as the Bureau of Customs may require must contain the same information in regard to the quantity and value of the helium gas as that which appears on the application for license.**

SUBPART-PROTECTION AND PRESERVATION OF THE DOMESTIC SOURCES OF TIN

Section 3.1 To provide for the protection and preservation of the domestic sources of tin. Whereas section 2 of an Act of Congress approved February 15, 1936 (49 Stat. 1140; 50 U.S.C., Sup., 87), entitled "An Act to provide for the protection and preservation of the domestic sources of tin," provides:

There shall not be exported from the United States after the expiration of sixty days from the enactment of this Act any tin-plate scrap, except upon license issued by the President of the United States. The President is authorized to grant licenses upon such conditions and regulations as he may find necessary to assure in the public interest fair and equitable consideration to all producers of this commodity.

Now, therefore, I, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, President of the United States, acting under and by virtue of the authority vested in me by the aforesaid Act, do hereby delegate to the Secretary of State as Chairman of the National Munitions Control Board the power to grant licenses for the exportation of tin-plate scrap upon such conditions and under such regulations as he may find necessary to assure in the public interest fair and equitable consideration to all producers of this commodity, and as he may prescribe by and with the advice and consent of the Board. (Sec. 2, 49 Stat. 1140; 50 U.S.C., Sup., 87) [E.O. 7297, Feb. 16, 1936]

SUBPART-REGULATIONS REGARDING THE EXPORTATION OF TINPLATE SCRAP

3.2 Authority. Pursuant to the authority vested in me by Executive Order No. 7297 of February 16, 1936, I hereby prescribe, by and with the advice and consent of the National Munitions Control Board, the following regulations in §§ 3.3-3.7 to govern the exportation of tin-plate scrap under the provisions of the Act of Congress approved February 15, 1936, entitled "An Act to provide for the protection and preservation of the domestic sources of tin."*t

*§§ 3.2 to 3.7, inclusive, issued under the authority contained in E.O. 7297, Feb. 16, 1936. Sec. 2, 49 Stat. 1140; 50 U.S.C., Sup., 87.

†The source of §§ 3.2 to 3.7, inclusive, is Regulations governing exportation of tin-plate scrap, Secretary of State, Dec. 7, 1936, 1 F.R. 2123, 2124.

3.3 Definition of "tin-plate scrap." For the purpose of the Act the term "tin-plate scrap" is construed, provisionally, to mean tinplate clippings, cuttings, stampings, trimmings, skeleton sheets, and all other miscellaneous pieces of discarded tin plate, which result from (a) the manufacture of tin plate, or (b) the manufacture of tin-bearing articles from tin plate. As thus defined, the term "tinplate scrap" does not include tin-plate waste, tin-plate circles, tinplate strips, tin-plate cobbles, and tin-plate scroll shear butts, when packed separately and sold as such, and when not intermingled with tin-plate scrap.*+

3.4 Forms of application. Blank forms of application for export licenses will be furnished by the Secretary of State on request.*† 3.5 Export licenses. The Secretary of State will issue export licenses to cover proposed shipments of tin-plate scrap to applicants

who have duly filled out the above form when, in the opinion of the National Munitions Control Board, the issuance of such licenses may be consistent with the purposes of the Act. Copies of the statement of the procedure adopted by the Board to govern the issuance of licenses may be obtained from the Secretary of State.**

3.6 Shipper's export declaration. The shipper's export declaration (Customs Form 7525) must contain the same information in regard to the nature and the value of the tin-plate scrap to be exported as that which appears on the application for license.*t
