INTRODUCTORY NOTE 
The following amendment to the Japanese beetle quarantine regulations 
modifies the boundaries of the regulated area by removing therefrom certain 
territory in northwestern Pennsylvania and by adding an election district inad- 
vertently omitted in Wicomico County, Md. The Pennsylvania territory re- 
moved is not infested so far as known and the action is taken at the request 
of the authorities of the State in order to provide a greater protective zone 
for the fruit-growing district near the regulated area.
