                       References in Text

    Section 4413 of this title, referred to in par. (1)(C), was in the 
original ``section 17 of this Act'', meaning section 17 of Pub. L. 101-
233, and was translated as reading section 16(a) of Pub. L. 101-233 as 
the probable intent of Congress because section 16(a) of Pub. L. 101-233 
relates to agreements with nations in the Western Hemisphere.


                               Amendments

    1994--Par. (1)(D). Pub. L. 103-375 added subpar. (D).
