Provisions of Controversial Trade Issue

It limits imports of textiles and footwear to 1967 69 levels, freezes oil import quotas, sets tariff rate quotas on mink fur skins and certain chemicals, and creates a formula to impose tariffs or quotas on foreign products seen to protect American markets. It also offers a tax break to U S exporters who expand their business.
