HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Based on sections 588a, 588b, 588c, of title 12, U.S.C., 1940
ed., Banks and Banking (May 18, 1934, ch. 304, Sec. 1, 2, 3, 48
Stat. 783; Aug. 23, 1935, ch. 614, Sec. 333, 49 Stat. 720; Aug. 24,
1937, ch. 747, 50 Stat. 749; June 29, 1940, ch. 455, 54 Stat. 695).
Section consolidates sections 588a, 588b, and 588c of title 12,
U.S.C., 1940 ed., Banks and Banking, as suggested by United States
Attorney Clyde O. Eastus, of Fort Worth, Tex.
Words ''felony or larceny'' in subsection (a) were changed to
''felony affecting such bank and in violation of any statute of the
United States, or any larceny''.
Use of term ''felony'' without limitation caused confusion as to
whether a common law, State, or Federal felony was intended.
Change conforms with Jerome v. U.S. (1943, 63 S. Ct. 483, 318 U.S.
101, 87 L. Ed. 640): ''Sec. 2(a) (Sec. 588b(a) of title 12, U.S.C.,
1940 ed., Banks and Banking) is not deprived of vitality if it is
interpreted to exclude State felonies and to include only those
Federal felonies which affect banks protected by the Act.''
Minimum punishment provisions were omitted from subsection (c).
(See reviser's note under section 203 of this title.) Also the
provisions of subsection (b) measuring the punishment by the amount
involved were extended and made applicable to the receiver as well
as the thief. There seems no good reason why the thief of less
than $100 should be liable to a maximum of imprisonment for one
year and the receiver subject to 10 years.
The figures ''100'' were substituted for ''50'' in view of the
fact that the present worth of $100 is less than the value of $50
when that sum was fixed as the dividing line between petit larceny
and grand larceny.
The attention of Congress is directed to the mandatory minimum
punishment provisions of sections 2113(e) and 2114 of this title.
These were left unchanged because of the controversial question
involved. Such legislative attempts to control the discretion of
the sentencing judge are contrary to the opinions of experienced
criminologists and criminal law experts. They are calculated to
work manifest injustice in many cases.
Necessary minor translations of section references, and changes
in phraseology, were made.

HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
1948 ACT
Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 409 (Feb. 13, 1913, ch.
50, Sec. 1, 37 Stat. 670; Jan. 28, 1925, ch. 102, 43 Stat. 793;
Jan. 21, 1933, ch. 16, 47 Stat. 773; July 24, 1946, ch. 606, 60
Stat. 656).
Other provisions of section 409 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,
were incorporated in sections 659 and 660 of this title.
Minor changes were made in phraseology.
1949 ACT
This section (section 44) conforms section 2117 of title 18,
U.S.C., more closely with the original law from which it was
derived, and with section 659 of such title.
AMENDMENTS
1994 - Pub. L. 103-322, which directed the amendment of section
2217 of this title by substituting ''under this title'' for ''not
more than $5,000'', was executed by making the substitution in the
first par. of this section, to reflect the probable intent of
Congress, because this title does not contain a section 2217.
1966 - Pub. L. 89-654 substituted ''Breaking or entering carrier
facilities'' for ''Railroad car entered or seal broken'' as section
catchline, inserted reference to ''pipeline system'', substituted
''freight or express or other property'' for ''freight or
express'', and prohibited any construction which might indicate a
Congressional intent to occupy the field or invalidate State law.
1949 - Act May 24, 1949, inserted last par.
