The official description of the Act, as part of Public Law, is: "An Act To define, regulate, and punish trading with the enemy, and for other purposes." At the same time, Congress amended the act to authorize the president to invoke it for any "national emergency" of foreign origin, thereby setting a precedent for increasingly creative exercises of the act's powers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Emergency_Economic_Powers_Act   (777 words)      [No title] Acts permitted; applications for patents, or registration of trade-marks or copyrights; payment of tax in relation thereto; licenses under enemy owned patent or copyright; statements by licensees; term and cancellation; suits against licensees; restraining infringements; powers of attorney; keeping secret inventions.
