Historical and Revision Notes
Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §76c (June 5, 1939, ch. 184, §1, 53 Stat. 809).
Section 76c of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., was incorporated in this section and section 707 of this title.
Reference to offense as a misdemeanor was omitted in view of definitive section 1 of this title. Words "upon conviction thereof" were omitted, since criminal punishment can follow only after conviction.
Minor changes were made in phraseology.

Editorial Notes

Amendments
