Expiration

If the act started in 1927 and ran for ten years then it expired in 1937. How could it be modified in 1938? Wasn't it rather succeeded by a new act after its natural expiration. And why would it have to be repealed in 1985? Rmhermen 01:40, Mar 12, 2005 (UTC)

My understanding is that the quota specified by the act lasted 10 years, but the act itself made other provisions. These were modified in 1938 and repealed in 1985. But I'd like to find more detailed information on this. Jihg 23:01, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)

Quota Quickies

A short list of representative films of this type would be interesting. Drutt (talk) 19:55, 13 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
