Legislative History

(1949 Rev., S. 7410.) Mere fact that persons committing the unlawful acts are acting within the scope of their general authority is not enough; it must appear that authority to do the particular acts charged, or acts generally of that type or quality, was expressly granted or necessarily followed from a granted authority. 150 C. 266. Cited. 186 C. 247; 190 C. 371; 203 C. 624. Cited. 42 CS 336.
