Sec. 452.13  Extraterritorial application.

    Although the application of the Act is limited to the activities of 
persons and organizations within the territorial jurisdiction of the 
United States, \14\ an international, national or intermediate body is 
not exempted from the requirements of the Act by virtue of the 
participation of its foreign locals or foreign membership in its 
elections. For example, votes received from Canadian members in 
referendum elections held by an international must have been cast under 
procedures meeting the minimum requirements of the Act, and Canadian 
delegates participating at conventions of the international at which 
officers are elected must have been elected by secret ballot.
