# Special 301 Report/2014/Annex 3

ANNEX 3. THE WIPO PERFORMANCES AND PHONOGRAMS TREATY (WPPT) AND THE WIPO COPYRIGHT TREATY (WCT)
The United States continues to work with other governments, in consultation with U.S. copyright industries and other affected sectors, to develop strategies to address global IPR issues. In 1996, two new treaties were concluded at the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO): the WIPO Copyright Treaty (WCT) and the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty (WPPT). Following their entry into force in 2002, these treaties have raised the standard of copyright protection around the world, particularly with regard to Internet-based delivery of copyrighted content. The WIPO Internet Treaties clarified certain exclusive rights and require signatories to provide adequate legal protection and effective legal remedies against the circumvention of certain technological measures as well as certain acts affecting rights management information. A growing number of trading partners are implementing the WIPO Internet Treaties to create a legal environment conducive to investment and growth in legitimate Internet-related businesses, services, and technologies.
As of April 2014, there are 92 contracting parties to the WPPT and 91 contracting parties to the WCT. Other trading partners have implemented key provisions of these treaties in their national laws without formally ratifying them. The United States urges other governments to ratify and implement the provisions of the WIPO Internet Treaties.
The following trading partner became party to the WCT between January 2013 and March 2014:
| Algeria | Entry into Force: January 31, 2014 |
The following trading partner became party to the WPPT between January 2013 and March 2014:
| Algeria | Entry into Force: January 31, 2014 |
# Special 301 Report/2014/Annex 1

ANNEX 1. SPECIAL 301 STATUTORY BASIS
Special 301 Statutory Authority
Pursuant to the Special 301 statutory mandate, Section 182 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 and the Uruguay Round Agreements Act of 1994 (19 U.S.C. § 2242), USTR is required to identify "those foreign countries that deny adequate and effective protection of intellectual property rights, or deny fair and equitable market access to United States persons that rely upon intellectual property protection." The USTR shall only designate countries that have the most onerous or egregious acts, policies, or practices and whose acts, policies, or practices have the greatest adverse impact (actual or potential) on the relevant U.S. products as Priority Foreign Countries. Priority Foreign Countries are potentially subject to an investigation under the Section 301 provisions of the Trade Act of 1974. USTR may not designate a country as a Priority Foreign Country if it is entering into good faith negotiations or making significant progress in bilateral or multilateral negotiations to provide adequate and effective protection of IPR. USTR is required to decide whether to identify countries within 30 days after issuance of the annual National Trade Estimate Report. In addition, USTR may identify a trading partner as a Priority Foreign Country or re-designate the trading partner whenever warranted.
USTR has created a Priority Watch List and Watch List under the Special 301 provisions. Placement of a trading partner on the Priority Watch List or Watch List indicates that particular problems exist in that country with respect to IPR protection, enforcement, or market access for persons relying on IPR. Countries placed on the Priority Watch List are the focus of increased bilateral attention concerning the problem areas.
Additionally, under Section 306, USTR monitors a trading partner's compliance with measures that are the basis for resolving an investigation under Section 301. USTR may apply sanctions if a country fails to satisfactorily implement such measures.
The Trade Policy Staff Committee, in particular the Special 301 Subcommittee, in advising USTR on the implementation of Special 301, obtains information from and holds consultations with the private sector, U.S. embassies, foreign governments, and the U.S. Congress, among other sources.

The USTR shall only designate countries that have the most onerous or egregious acts, policies, or practices and whose acts, policies, or practices have the greatest adverse impact (actual or potential) on the relevant U.S. products as Priority Foreign Countries. Priority Foreign Countries are potentially subject to an investigation under the Section 301 provisions of the Trade Act of 1974. USTR may not designate a country as a Priority Foreign Country if it is entering into good faith negotiations or making significant progress in bilateral or multilateral negotiations to provide adequate and effective protection of IPR. USTR is required to decide whether to identify countries within 30 days after issuance of the annual National Trade Estimate Report. In addition, USTR may identify a trading partner as a Priority Foreign Country or re-designate the trading partner whenever the available facts indicate that such action is appropriate.
To aid in the administration of the statute, USTR created a Priority Watch List and Watch List under the Special 301 provisions. Placement of a trading partner on the Priority Watch List or Watch List indicates that particular problems exist in that country with respect to IPR protection, enforcement, or market access for persons relying on IPR. Countries placed on the Priority Watch List are the focus of increased bilateral attention concerning the specific problem areas.
Additionally, under Section 306 of the Trade Act of 1974, USTR monitors a trading partner's compliance with measures that are the basis for resolving an IPR-based investigation under Section 301. USTR may apply sanctions if a country fails to satisfactorily implement such measures.
The TPSC, in particular the Special 301 Subcommittee, in advising the USTR on the implementation of Special 301, obtains information from and holds consultations with the private sector, civil society and academia, U.S. embassies, foreign governments, and the U.S. Congress, among other sources.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Buckwheat Flowers

Buckwheat Flowers
By the fields of corn and millet Where autumnal decay holds its sway, The field of buckwheat is in full bloom.
# Songs of a Cowherd/At the Temple Yard

At the Temple Yard
On the face of a stone monument Where Basho’s lyric is carved, Basket-worms crawl.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Bridge

Bridge
A man on the bridge And one below washing a horse Chat happily. I wonder if they are rejoicing In the year’s abundant crops.
# Songs of a Cowherd/An Escape

An Escape
Fleeing awhile From the cares of living, I walk into the spring light Where the plum trees flower, And take a deep breath.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Autumn Colors in Mists

Songs of a Cowherd
1897–1898
Autumn Colors in Mists
Now brightening and now fading Over the hills with trailing mists, The autumn leaves of myriad hues Forever change before my eyes.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Cherry Blossoms

Cherry Blossoms
When I look upon the cherry blossoms That flash upon the hillside In the gleam of the bright sun, I think longingly of the age of the gods.
In a glen between the mountains Tiring to the feet, There stands a lonely hut, And by the thatched eaves, A cherry tree in full bloom.
On the shore where fisher-lads Tug at the ropes of the net, When the wind blows high, Cherry bloom falls in wild confusion.
To mark the great imperial reign, Bridle to bridle, The lords and high councilors ride To the feast of cherry blossoms.
Heavy with the fumes Of festive wine, A noble courtier Falls from his horse, Scattering cherry blossoms.
# Songs of a Cowherd/A Woman's Lament

A Woman’s Lament
(Composed for a lady to be sent to her cruel husband)
“Surely he will come tonight,” So saying I watched many a night Pale to dawn without having met my love. Drawing my child close to my breast, I weep.
Like to a wreath of smoke Untouched by winds, How shall I curb my love That rushes with singleness of purpose To you, its goal?
# Songs of a Cowherd/Arise, Youth of Japan

1904
Arise, Youth of Japan
(On the eve of the Russo-Japanese War)
Oh the burnished sword Handed down from the age of the gods! The time has come to lay our hands On this sword divine.
(On the eve of the declaration of war)
By the decree of my sovereign lord I go, leaving my aged parents, My wife and my children, And will not turn me around Even to gaze behind.
My child and my young wife Pressing me on either side, Come to see me off to war. Though in my blood I weep, My eyes are dry.
# Songs of a Cowherd/At the Yoshino Garden

At the Yoshino Garden
(June first)
By a plum tree Poppies bloom; Under the pines Thistles flowering— A cottage built of straw.
Red, crimson red, Are the poppies. Bathed in the evening sun, They are aflame.
(Again, June 20)
Over the marsh Where the flowering iris Stands out white in relief, A lone glow-worm Flickers.
# Songs of a Cowherd/A Stream of Thoughts

A Stream of Thoughts
A thousand and one thoughts Stream through me And wear my heart away. Would that my heart had A switch to turn them off!

# St. Nicholas/Volume 32/Number 3/Editorial Note

Editorial Notes
The little story, “A Strange Pocket-Book,” on page 221 of this number, is a true account of an actual incident which took place during the Civil War. It will add to the interest of all readers of this contribution to know that the small heroine of the story was the mother of Mrs. Alice Hegan Rice, the well-known author of those two popular books, “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch” and “Lovey Mary.”
The author of “A Thrilling Fact,” on page 219, asks us to say that she is indebted for the inspiration of her rhyme to a lecture delivered at the Wagner Institute, Philadelphia, by Mr. Reid, who made the remarkable assertion which Mrs. Joy has put into amusing verse.
The entertaining paper in this number by Miss Bertha Runkle, author of “The Helmet of Navarre," will not fail to please all young folk who are interested in the life of the Island Empire of Japan. Miss Runkle’s article gives many fresh glimpses of the every-day experiences and pleasures of the boys and girls of that far-away land, as well as of the child life of China and Korea. Several of the photographs accompanying the article are also novel and unusually interesting.
Perhaps no recent character in St. Nicholas stories has been more popular than little “Jimmie Dandy,” the boy hero of Mr. Elliott Flower’s capital story published just a year ago, entitled “An Officer of the Court.” We are sure, therefore, that all af our readers will welcome Mr, Flower’s account, in this number, of further developments in the life of Jimmie Dandy, and will be glad to read the story of how he came to be also “An Officer of the School.”

| Serial Novels by the above writers are among the attractions of The Century For 1905   Mrs. Alice Hegan Rice’s novel, “Sandy,” begins in December. Kate Douglas Wiggin's “Rose o’ the River” begins soon, Mrs. Humphry Ward’s novel will come later. Don’t miss the January Century, with Helen Keller‘s article on the hand—a prose poem. November (beginning the volume) and December (the great Christmas number ) FREE to new subscribers who begin with January. $4.00. The Century Co. Union Square, New York | “The Century Magazine is the millionaire’s magazine,” observed an active business man to the writer a short time ago. “It is too high-priced for the ordinary run of people. The dollar monthly is good enough for me.” One occasionally hears a remark like this from a man or woman who is actively immersed in the affairs of life. Who has an eye only to the cost of the article, without stopping to consider its value, and who in any event is not a deep reader of current literature or a profound student of current art. It is true that many of the dollar monthlies are highly commendable publications and have accomplished a great amount of good. We are not disposed to detract a particle from their excellence or enterprise; but it is manifestly unfair—in fact, it is ubsurd to compare the one with the other. So far as we are aware, as a high-toned literary magazine The Century stands unsurpassed. It has enlisted the services of the best writers and the best artists the world can produce. It is original in matter and style trom title io imprint. Its aim is lofty and ennobling. Its table of contents covers a wide range of topics, including fiction, travel, science, history, architecture, poetry, etc., while its prolific illustrations are masterpieces of the painter’s and engraver’s art. Even mechanically it is a grand piece of work. For such a work, instead of being dear at $4.00 a year or 35 cents per number, the price is remarkably cheap, and no one who subscribes to or buys it, ever regrets or loses a copy of it. While the dollar magazine is generally lightly thrown aside after reading, The Century is bought “for Keeps” and is always treasured in the book-lover’s library.—The News, Knowlton, P. Q. |

MISCELLANEOUS
THE FIRST STEP
away from self-respect is lack of care in personal cleanliness; the first move in building up a proper pride in man, woman, or child, is a visit to the bath-tub, You can’t be healthy, or pretty, or even good, unless you are clean. Use Hand Sapolio. It pleases every one.
A BEAUTIFUL SKIN
can only be secured through Nature’s work. Ghastly, horrid imitations of beauty are made by cosmetics, balms, powders, and other injurious compounds. They put a coat over the already clogged
pores of the skin and double the injury,
DELICATE ENOUGH
FOR THE BABY. A
Luxury for everybody. Necessary to every washstand. Assists the most
elaborate toilet. An exemplification of the luxury of cleanliness. Imparts the vigor and life sensation of a Turkish bath. Energizes the whole body, bringing a glow and exhilaration.
HAND SAPOLIO nei-
ther coats over the surface nor does it go down into
the pores and dissolve their necessary oils. It opens pores, liberates their activities, but works no chemical change in those delicate juices that you to make up the charm and bloom of a healthy complexion. Test it yourself.
The Daintiest Soap Made is Hand Sapolio
The only soap that makes every Pore respond, and energizes the whole body. :

# Songs of a Cowherd/Mushroom Gathering

Mushroom Gathering
In color and in scent Lovely are the gathered mushrooms. Tenderly I put them in my basket That they be not broken nor crushed.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Lotus Flowers

Lotus Flowers
(August 8)
I put in the alcove A vase of pink lotus flowers And the house is filled with their scent.
As if to say Things of the world Come to nought in the end, A petal of a lotus bloom Begins to fall.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Light of Decay

Light of Decay
Descending I am astonished At the cold of this morning. The dew is heavy, And deep are the fallen leaves of the persimmons.
How cold is the morning dew! O autumn flowers, All is shrouded In the dim light of decay.
Swaying the coxcombs’ crimson red, The autumn waxes to its close, and ah, My forty-ninth year Is about to pass.
# Songs of a Cowherd/My Garden

My Garden
My garden is only sixty feet square, Yet though I dwell in the city, The spring brings a bullfinch’s song And the summer, a warbler’s note.
# Songs of a Cowherd/My Plight

My Plight
So anxious to forgive That I await in anguish, But alas! he asks me not for forgiveness. To whom shall I bemoan my sad plight?
# Songs of a Cowherd/My Son

My Son
(Kyuichiro, who died after thirteen days of life)
Fearful I drew myself close to thee And listened; But there was no more breath.
Thy tender soul, More frail than a flickering light, Touched lightly the mortal world To be forever put out.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Lotus Pond

Lotus Pond
All night long, In rain and in darkness, Over the lotus pond A lantern of the keeper Swings in the wind.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Mount Fuji

Mount Fuji
On a pillow of blue clouds Clad in silvery snow, The guardian deity of Mount Fuji Lies forever asleep.
# Songs of a Cowherd/My Life

1911
My Life
If, to this present I, To lie were not permitted, My life span, alas, would be Cut off this instant.
Tormented, I cling to life, And there is no way to repent Of the sin that men do not forgive.
Having been utterly lost In the path of life, I am not even permitted to lie.
when I repent of my own sin, What will become of my life? Alas, my love!
Though I huddle in fear and misery, Since I am still alive, Heaven and earth let me live.
# Songs of a Cowherd/Love

Love
My thoughts well up in me As numerous as autumn weeds But unable to give them utterance I only shake them off like the dewdrops That cling upon my hands.
# Star Lore Of All Ages/Introduction

New York, London: G. P. Putnam's Sons
There are many persons who are familiar with the bright stars and constellations of these northern latitudes who are unaware of the beautiful myths and legends that time and fancy have woven about them.
As even a meagre knowledge of star lore has added greatly to the writer's pleasure in the study of the stars, and has served to render their appearance full of suggestion, he has been interested in collecting for this volume a portion of that varied history of the heavens that has been presented in terms imaginative by the peoples of all ages. Those who admire the beauty of the stars may learn to love them by reason of the literary and legendary associations recalled by their appearance.
Much that appears in these pages has been published from time to time in books on popular astronomy of comparatively recent date, but to the writer's knowledge no comprehensive story has as yet been presented of the constellations, and of the stars they contain.
In the compilation of this volume, the purpose has been to include all matter pertinent to the subject, in order that the history of the constellations, as known and as written by all nations in every age, might be arranged in convenient form for the benefit of those who only know the stars by sight.
A further aim has been to revive an interest in the mythology that twines about the stars. It has seemed but right that this wealth of star lore, buried deep in the treasury of the past, should once more see the light, and add its increased charm and interest to those who scan the skies.
Such a history must ever serve to keep bright the memory ​of the earliest times, and fanciful though the constellation figures seem, our stars bear the same names that were given to them in the very dawn of civilisation.
In conclusion, it is hoped that the history of the heavens here set forth will awaken fresh interest in the stars, and will secure for them the attention that is their just due on the part of all lovers of the beautiful.
W. T. O.
Norwich, Conn, January, 1911.
In the compilation of this volume the author hereby acknowledges his indebtedness to the following publications for much valuable information.
