[July-Sept. 
ANNOUNCEMENTS RELATING TO EUROPEAN CORN-BORER 
QUARANTINE (No. 43) 
NOTICE OF LIFTING OF THE EUROPEAN CORN-BORER QUARANTINE 
(Effective on and after July 15, 1932) 
I, Arthur M. Hyde, Secretary of Agriculture, have determined that, in view of 
the certainty that Federal funds will be inadequate for the enforcement of the 
domestic European corn-borer quarantine (Notice of Quarantine No. 43 as 
revised), during the current fiscal year, the public interests do not permit the 
continued maintenance of this quarantine. 
Now, therefore, under authority conferred by section 8 of the plant quarantine 
act of August 20, 1912 (37 Stat. 315) as amended by the act of March 4, 1917 
(39 Stat. 1134, 1165), I do hereby remove and revoke Notice of Quarantine No. 43 
as revised, and all rules and regulations supplemental thereto, under which the 
States of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, Rhode Island, Connecticut, 
Vermont, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio, Michigan, 
and Indiana were quarantined to prevent the spread of the European corn borer 
therefrom. Such removal and revocation shall take effect on and after July 15, 
1932. 
Done at the city of Washington, this 12th day of July, 1932. 
Witness my hand and the seal of the United States Department of Agriculture. 
[seal] Arthur M. Hyde, 
Secretary of Agriculture. 
[This notice was sent to all common carriers doing business in or through the area quarantined on account 
of the European corn borer.] 
Instructions to Postmasters — Removal of Quarantine on Account of 
the European Corn Borer 
Third Assistant Postmaster General, 
Washington, July 21, 1932. 
Quarantine order No. 43 on account of the European corn borer, quarantining 
the States of Connecticut, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hamp- 
shire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and 
West Virginia, has been revoked. 
Consequently, postmasters in the area quarantined should no longer enforce 
the regulations promulgated under that order. Of course, the requirements of 
paragraph 2, section 467, Postal Laws and Regulations, governing the acceptance 
for mailing of plant material for propagation, must be observed. 
F. A. TlLTON, 
Third Assistant Postmaster General.
