extended Super 301 for a second time in September 1995, for two
years.

3. Two good examples of the conflicting interest between administrative
agencies were provided during the debate over whether to list Japan under Super
301 in 1989 (see Stuart Auerbach, "Global Stakes High as Decision on Japan Trade
Nears", Washington Post, May 25, 1989, C12; and Stuart Auerbach, "Bush Hears
Debate on Japan Trade; Advisors Dispute 'Unfair' Label", Washington Post,
May 23, 1989, C1) and during the debate in 1994 to reinstate Super 301 (see Peter Behr
, "Clinton Aims a Warning Shot on Trade -- Away from Japan", Washington
Post, March 4, 1994, B1).

11. Previous to the WTO, intellectual property provisions were not included in
the GATT, so time limits to match the GATT were then unnecessary.
12. In late 1995, several efforts were made in Congress to extend the authorizing
legislation for Super 301, but none has yet become law.
