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.
