69e. Name guide for fur products
(a) Fur Products Name Guide
The Commission shall, with the assistance and cooperation of the Department
of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior, within six months after
August 8, 1951, issue, after holding public hearings, a register setting
forth the names of hair, fleece, and fur-bearing animals, which shall
be known as the Fur Products Name Guide. The names used shall be the true
English names for the animals in question, or in the absence of a true
English name for an animal, the name by which such animal can be properly
identified in the United States.
(b) Additions and deletions; public hearing
The Commission may, from time to time, with the assistance and cooperation
of the Department of Agriculture and Department of the Interior, after
holding public hearings, add to or delete from such register the name
of any hair, fleece, or fur-bearing animal.
(c) Prevention of confusion or deception
If the name of an animal (as set forth in the Fur Products Name Guide)
connotes a geographical origin or significance other than the true country
or place of origin of such animal, the Commission may require whenever
such name is used in setting forth the information required by this subchapter,
such qualifying statements as it may deem necessary to prevent confusion
or deception.
