HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES

1948 ACT

Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 407a (June 24, 1936,

ch. 746, 49 Stat. 1899; June 29, 1938, ch. 813, 52 Stat. 1242).

Language designating offense as felony was omitted in uniformity

with definitive section 1 of this title. (See reviser's note under

section 550 of this title.)

Words ''and shall, upon conviction'' were omitted as surplusage

since punishment cannot be imposed until a conviction is secured.

Reference to persons aiding, abetting or causing was omitted as

such persons are made principals by section 2 of this title.

Changes were made in phraseology and arrangement, but without

change of substance.

1949 ACT

This section (section 30) corrects a typographical error in

section 1231 of title 18, U.S.C.

AMENDMENTS

1994 - Pub. L. 103-322 substituted ''fined under this title'' for

''fined not more than $5,000'' in third par.

1949 - Act May 24, 1949, substituted ''or travels in'' for ''in

or travels'' in second par.
