Historical and Revision Notes
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed. Sec. 446 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231,
Sec. 304, as added Aug. 7, 1939, ch. 501, Sec. 1, 53 Stat. 1223).
This section contains the last clause of section 446(1) of title 28,
U.S.C., 1940 ed.
A similar provision with respect to the Attorney General's authority
over United States attorneys and their assistants, and United States
marshals and their deputies was omitted as unnecessary since there is
nothing in this chapter that could affect such authority of the Attorney
General.
For other provisions of section 446 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed.,
see section 604 of this title.
Minor changes were made in phraseology.
