other factors, but with a view to assisting parties interested to present information necessary for the formulation of findings and recommendations required by Part I of Executive Order 9832, the Commission will expect attention in the hearing to be concentrated upon the facts relating to:

(1) The competitive strength of the foreign and domestic article in the markets of the United States during a representative period prior and subsequent to the granting of the trade-agreement concession.

(2) Costs of production of the foreign and domestic article during a representative period prior and subsequent to the granting of the trade-agreement concession, and costs of importation of the foreign article during similar periods.

(3) Developments since the granting of the trade-agreement concession which constitute advantages or disadvantages in competition between the domestic and the foreign article in the markets of the United States.

Finally, parties interested appearing at public hearings are expected to present definite information rather than generalities and conjectures.

§ 206.7 Reports. If the Commission finds in its investigation that, as a result of unforeseen developments and of a concession granted in a trade agreement, imports are in such increased quantities and under such conditions as to cause or threaten serious injury to domestic producers, it will report its findings to the President with appropriate recommendations for the withdrawal or modification of the concession to the extent found necessary for the prevention of such injury. Such report is submitted for the President's consideration "in the light of the public interest." Presidential authority to increase duties and impose such additional import restrictions as are required or appropriate to carry out a foreign trade agreement is provided for in the Trade Agreements Act of 1934, as amended. (Section 350, Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U. S. C. 1351.) In the absence of such a finding by the Commission, notice of dismissal of the investigation will be published in the same manner as the notice ordering the investigation under § 206.5. The Commission will also issue a statement of the reasons for the dismissal.
