+## Notes
+
+Historical and Revision NotesBased on section 105 of title 50, U.S.C., 1940 ed., War and National Defense (Apr. 20, 1918, ch. 59, § 5, as added Nov. 30, 1940, ch. 926, 54 Stat. 1221). Words “upon conviction thereof” were omitted as unnecessary, since punishment cannot be imposed until a conviction is secured. Minor changes were made in phraseology.
