Historical and Revision Notes RevisedSectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 10736:146.Apr. 30, 1934, ch. 184, 48 Stat. 657. In clause (1), the words “the 2d Monday in October” are substituted for “October 12” in the Act of April 30, 1934 (ch. 184, 48 Stat. 657), because of section 1(b) of the Act of June 28, 1968 (Public Law 90363, 82 Stat. 250).
