## Notes

Historical and Revision Notes RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 30440:760.June 30, 1949, ch. 288, title I, § 112, as added Pub. L. 95–491, § 2(a), Oct. 20, 1978, 92 Stat. 1641. The text of 40:760(b) is omitted as unnecessary because of section 121(b)(1) of the revised title. The text of 40:760(c) is omitted because the authorization for fiscal year ending September 30, 1980 is obsolete and the authorization for “such sums as may be necessary” for succeeding years is unnecessary.
