Quarantine Officers shall have authority over incoming vessels, their
wharfage and anchorage in so far as it is necessary for the proper
enforcement of the quarantine regulations, including vessels of the Army
Transport Service and non-combatant vessels of the Navy.
Collectors of Customs at ports of entry will not permit entry without
quarantine certificates.
Any vessel leaving any port in the Philippine Islands for any port in
the United States or its Dependencies shall obtain a bill of health from
the quarantine officer when such officer is on duty, said bill of health
to correspond to the Consular Bill of Health now required by Treasury
Regulations, and the bill of health shall not be given to the outgoing
vessel unless all quarantine regulations have been complied with. At
ports where no medical officer is detailed, bills of health will be
signed by the Collector of Customs or other officers to whom such duty
has been regularly delegated. Special regulations relating to the bills
of health to be obtained by vessels of the United States Navy will be
promulgated by the Secretary of the Treasury.
