The Secretary of Agriculture shall fix rules and regulations for submitting samples of cotton for classification providing that all samples shall be numbered so that no one interested in the transaction involved shall be known by any classifier engaged in the classification of such cotton samples.

The Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to

classification of cotton by which its quality or

be not less than one year after the date of such
order: Provided, That the official cotton stand-

ever any standard or change or replacement
thereof shall become effective under this chap-
ter, it shall also, when so specified in the order
of the Secretary of Agriculture, become effec-
tive for the purposes of the United States Cotton
Futures Act and supersede any inconsistent
standard established under said Act. Whenever
the official cotton standards of the United
States established under this chapter shall be
represented by practical forms the Department
of Agriculture shall furnish copies thereof, upon
request, to any person, and the cost thereof, as
determined by the Secretary of Agriculture,
shall be paid by the person making the request.
