                    SUBCHAPTER I--GENERAL PROVISIONS
 
Sec. 1444. Separability

    Except as may be otherwise expressly provided in this Act, all 
powers and authorities conferred by this Act shall be cumulative and 
additional to and not in derogation of any powers and authorities 
otherwise existing. Notwithstanding any other evidences of the intention 
of Congress, it is declared to be the controlling intent of Congress 
that if any provisions of this Act, or the application thereof to any 
persons or circumstances, shall be adjudged by any court of competent 
jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair, or 
invalidate the remainder of this Act or its applications to other 
persons and circumstances, but shall be confined in its operation to the 
provision of this Act, or the application thereof to the persons and 
circumstances directly involved in the controversy in which such 
judgment shall have been rendered.
