Historical and Revision Notes
Based on 44 U.S. Code, 1964 ed., § 166 (Jan. 12, 1895, ch. 23, § 71, 28 Stat. 612; July 2, 1954, ch. 455, title I, § 101, 68 Stat. 397).
“House of Representatives Publications Distribution Service” is substituted for “House Folding Room” because of the change of name under authority of Public Law 88–652.
