HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES

1948 ACT

Based on sections 548 and 549 of title 18, and sections 212, 213,

215, 217, 218 of title 25, Indians, U.S. Code, 1940 ed. (R.S. Sec.

2142, 2143, 2144, 2145, 2146; Feb. 18, 1875, ch. 80, Sec. 1, 18

Stat. 318; Mar. 4, 1909, ch. 321, Sec. 328, 329, 35 Stat. 1151;

Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, Sec. 291, 36 Stat. 1167; June 28, 1932, ch.

284, 47 Stat. 337).

This section consolidates numerous conflicting and inconsistent

provisions of law into a concise statement of the applicable law.

R.S. Sec. 2145, 2146 (U.S.C., title 25, Sec. 217, 218) extended

to the Indian country with notable exceptions the criminal laws of

the United States applicable to places within the exclusive

jurisdiction of the United States. Crimes of Indians against

Indians, and crimes punishable by tribal law were excluded.

The confusion was not lessened by the cases of U.S. v.

McBratney, 104 U.S. 622 and Draper v. U.S., 17 S.Ct. 107, holding

that crimes in Indian country by persons not Indians are not

cognizable by Federal courts in absence of reservation or cession

of exclusive jurisdiction applicable to places within the exclusive

jurisdiction of the United States. Because of numerous statutes

applicable only to Indians and prescribing punishment for crimes

committed by Indians against Indians, ''Indian country'' was

defined but once. (See act June 30, 1834, ch. 161, Sec. 1, 4, Stat.

729, which was later repealed.)

Definition is based on latest construction of the term by the

United States Supreme Court in U.S. v. McGowan, 58 S.Ct. 286, 302

U.S. 535, following U.S. v. Sandoval, 34 S.Ct. 1, 5, 231 U.S. 28,

46. (See also Donnelly v. U.S., 33 S.Ct. 449, 228 U.S. 243; and

Kills Plenty v. U.S., 133 F.2d 292, certiorari denied, 1943, 63

S.Ct. 1172). (See reviser's note under section 1153 of this title.)

Indian allotments were included in the definition on authority of

the case of U.S. v. Pelican, 1913, 34 S.Ct. 396, 232 U.S. 442, 58

L.Ed. 676.

1949 ACT

This section (section 25), by adding to section 1151 of title 18,

U.S.C., the phrase ''except as otherwise provided in sections 1154

and 1156 of this title'', incorporates in this section the

limitations of the term ''Indian country'' which are added to

sections 1154 and 1156 by sections 27 and 28 of this bill.

AMENDMENTS

1949 - Act May 24, 1949, incorporated the limitations of term

''Indian country'' which are contained in sections 1154 and 1156 of

this title.

HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES

1948 ACT

Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 548, 549 (Mar. 4, 1909,

ch. 321, Sec. 328, 329, 35 Stat. 1151; Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, Sec.

291, 36 Stat. 1167; June 28, 1932, ch. 284, 47 Stat. 337).

Section consolidates said sections 548 and 549 of title 18,

U.S.C., 1940 ed. Section 548 of said title covered 10 crimes.

Section 549 of said title covered the same except robbery and

incest.

The 1932 amendment of section 548 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,

constituting the last paragraph of the section, is omitted and

section 549 of said title to which it applied likewise is omitted.

The revised section therefore suffices to cover prosecution of the

specific offenses committed on all reservations as intended by

Congress.

Words ''Indian country'' were substituted for language relating

to jurisdiction extending to reservations and rights-of-way, in

view of definitive section 1151 of this title.

Paul W. Hyatt, president, board of commissioners, Idaho State

Bar, recommended that said section 548 be considered with other

sections in title 25, Indians, U.S.C., 1940 ed., and revised to

insure certainty as to questions of jurisdiction, and punishment on

conviction. Insofar as the recommendation came within the scope of

this revision, it was followed.

The proviso in said section 548 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,

which provided that rape should be defined in accordance with the

laws of the State in which the offense was committed, was changed

to include burglary so as to clarify the punishment for that

offense.

Venue provisions of said section 548 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940

ed., are incorporated in section 3242 of this title.

Section 549 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., conferred special

jurisdiction on the United States District Court for South Dakota

of all crimes of murder, manslaughter, rape, assault with intent to

kill, assault with a dangerous weapon, arson, burglary, and larceny

committed within the limits of any Indian reservation within the

State, whether by or against Indians or non-Indians. The Act of

February 2, 1903, 32 Stat. 793, from which said section 549 was

derived, accepted the cession by South Dakota of such jurisdiction.

The effect of revised sections 1151, 1152, and 1153 of this title

is to deprive the United States District Court for the District of

South Dakota of jurisdiction of offenses on Indian reservations

committed by non-Indians against non-Indians and to restore such

jurisdiction to the courts of the State of South Dakota as in other

States. This reflects the views of the United States attorney,

George Philip, of the district of South Dakota.

Minor changes were made in translation and phraseology.

1949 ACT

This section (section 26) removes an ambiguity in section 1153 of

title 18, U.S.C., by eliminating the provision that the crime of

rape in the Indian country is to be punished in accordance with the

law of the State where the offense was committed, leaving the

definition of the offense to be determined by State law, but

providing that punishment of rape of an Indian by an Indian is to

be by imprisonment at the discretion of the court. The offense of

rape, other than rape of an Indian by an Indian within the Indian

country, is covered by section 2031 of title 18, U.S.C., and the

offense of burglary by sections 1152 and 3242 of such title.

AMENDMENTS

1994 - Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 103-322 substituted ''kidnapping''

for ''kidnaping'' and inserted ''(as defined in section 1365 of

this title), an assault against an individual who has not attained

the age of 16 years'' after ''serious bodily injury''.

1988 - Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 100-690 substituted ''maiming, a

felony under chapter 109A, incest'' for '' 'maiming' and all that

follows through 'incest' '', thus clarifying execution of amendment

by Pub. L. 99-646 and Pub. L. 99-654 but resulting in no change in

text. See 1986 Amendment note below.

1986 - Pub. L. 99-646 and Pub. L. 99-654 which directed that

section be amended identically by substituting in first par. ''a

felony under chapter 109A,'' for ''rape, involuntary sodomy, carnal

knowledge of any female, not his wife, who has not attained the age

of sixteen years, assault with intent to commit rape,'' and by

striking out in second and third pars. '', involuntary sodomy,''

was executed by making the substitution in subsec. (a) for ''rape,

involuntary sodomy, felonious sexual molestation of a minor, carnal

knowledge of any female, not his wife, who has not attained the age

of sixteen years, assault with intent to commit rape,'' to reflect

the probable intent of Congress in view of prior amendment of this

section by Pub. L. 99-303, but amendment to second and third pars.

could not be executed because such pars. were struck out by Pub. L.

99-303.

Pub. L. 99-303 inserted section catchline which had been

eliminated by general amendment by section 1009 of Pub. L. 98-473,

designated first par. as subsec. (a) and inserted ''felonious

sexual molestation of a minor,'', struck out second par. which

provided that, as used in this section, the offenses of burglary,

involuntary sodomy, and incest be defined and punished in

accordance with the laws of the State in which such offense was

committed as are in force at the time of such offense, and struck

out third par. and restated the provisions thereof in a new subsec.

(b), substituting ''Any offense referred to in subsection (a) of

this section that is'' for ''In addition to the offenses of

burglary, involuntary sodomy, and incest, any other of the above

offenses which are''.

1984 - Pub. L. 98-473 amended section generally, inserting

offenses of maiming, involuntary sodomy and a felony committed

under section 661 of this title and striking out reference to

larceny in first par., and inserting '', involuntary sodomy,''

after ''burglary'' in third par.

1976 - Pub. L. 94-297 made changes in phraseology, added offense

of kidnapping to the enumerated list of offenses subjecting any

Indian to the same laws and penalties as all other persons, struck

out applicability to assault with a dangerous weapon and assault

resulting in serious bodily injury from paragraph covering the

offenses of burglary and incest only, and substituted paragraph,

relating to offenses in addition to offenses of burglary and

incest, for paragraph relating to offenses of rape and assault with

intent to commit rape.

1968 - Pub. L. 90-284 inserted offense of assault resulting in

serious bodily injury.

1966 - Pub. L. 89-707 inserted offenses of carnal knowledge and

assault with intent to commit rape, defined and proscribed the

punishment for assault with intent to commit rape in accordance

with the laws of the State in which the offense was committed, and

required assault with a dangerous weapon and incest to be defined

and punished in accordance with the laws of the State in which the

offense was committed.

1949 - Act May 24, 1949, struck out provision that the crime of

rape is to be punished in accordance with the law of the State

where the offense was committed and in lieu inserted provision

leaving punishment up to the discretion of the court.

EFFECTIVE DATE OF 1986 AMENDMENTS

Amendments by Pub. L. 99-646 and Pub. L. 99-654 effective,

respectively, 30 days after Nov. 10, 1986, and 30 days after Nov.

whatsoever to any Indian.

(c) The term ''Indian country'' as used in this section does not

include fee-patented lands in non-Indian communities or

rights-of-way through Indian reservations, and this section does

not apply to such lands or rights-of-way in the absence of a treaty

or statute extending the Indian liquor laws thereto.

reference to arraignment, was omitted as covered by rule 5 of the

Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure; and the remainder of section

241 of said title was incorporated in section 1156 of this title.

Section 254 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Indians, was omitted

as covered by this section and section 1156 of this title. That

section was enacted in 1934 and excluded from the Indian liquor

laws lands outside reservations where the land was no longer held

by Indians under a trust patent or a deed or patent containing

restrictions against alienation. Such enactment was prior to the

June 15, 1938, amendment of section 241 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940

ed., Indians, in which the term ''Indian country'' was defined as

including allotments where the title was held in trust by the

Government or where it was inalienable without the consent of the

United States. This provision, by implication, excluded cases where

there was no trust or restriction on alienation and thereby

achieved the same result as section 254 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940

ed., Indians. That amendment also repealed the act of Jan. 30,

1897, referred to in section 254 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,

Indians. Insofar as the reference in section 254 of said title to

''special Indian liquor laws'' included section 244 of title 25,

U.S.C., 1940 ed., Indians, the definition of Indian country in

section 1151 of this title covers section 254 of title 25, U.S.C.,

1940 ed., Indians.

Words ''or agent'' were deleted as there have been no Indian

agents since 1908. See section 64 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,

Indians, and note thereunder.

Mandatory punishment provisions were rephrased in the alternative

and provision for commitment for nonpayment of fine was deleted.

This change was also recommended by United States District Judge T.

Blake Kennedy on the ground that, otherwise, section would be

practically meaningless since, in most cases, offenders cannot pay

a fine.

The exception of intoxicating liquor for scientific, sacramental,

medicinal or mechanical purposes was inserted for the same reason

that makes this exception appropriate to section 1262 of this

title.

Minor changes were made in phraseology.

1949 ACT

Subsection (a) of this section (section 27(a)) substitutes

''Department of the Army'' for ''War Department'', in subsection

(b) of section 1154 of title 18, U.S.C., to conform to such

61 Stat. 501 (5 U.S.C., 1946 ed., Sec. 181-1)). Subsection (b) of

this section (section 27(b)) adds subsection (c) to such section

1154 in order to conform it and section 1156 more closely to the

laws relating to intoxicating liquor in the Indian country as they

have heretofore been construed.

Section consolidates sections 241a and 244a of title 25, U.S.C.,

1940 ed., Indians. The effect of section 244a of said title in

repealing section 241a of said title, except as to lands upon which

Indian schools are maintained, was to continue prohibiting the

dispensing of liquor in such areas.

The words ''upon conviction thereof'' were omitted as
