Summary:

Examines whether increased sabotage penalties based on Presidential declaration of a national emergency could be found to overlook situations of substantial gravity, in which there was no formal declaration of a national emergency. Considers implications presented by P.L. 93-148, the War Powers Resolution of 1973, to implement formal oversight procedures regarding introduction of U.S. armed forces into hostilities
