                Notice of November 12, 1997


                Continuation of Emergency Regarding Weapons of
                Mass
                Destruction

                On November 14, 1994, by Executive Order 12938, I
                declared a national emergency with respect to the
                unusual and extraordinary threat to the national
                security, foreign policy, and economy of the United
                States posed by the proliferation of nuclear,
                biological, and chemical weapons (``weapons of mass
                destruction'') and the means of delivering such
                weapons. Because the proliferation of weapons of mass
                destruction and the means of delivering them continue
                to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the
                United States, the national emergency declared on
                November 14, 1994, and extended on November 14, 1995
                and November 14, 1996, must continue in effect beyond
                November 14, 1997. Therefore, in accordance with
                section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50
                U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing the national emergency
                declared in Executive Order 12938.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register
                and transmitted to the Congress.

                    (Presidential Sig.)<Clinton1><Clinton2>

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                     November 12, 1997.
