Historical and Revision Notes
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 527 (May 28, 1896, ch.
252, Sec. 20, 29 Stat. 184; Dec. 28, 1945, ch. 592, 59 Stat. 659).
Provisions of section 527 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., relating to
ineligibility of various persons as United States commissioner appear as
section 631 of this title. Words ``janitor of any Government building''
were omitted as covered by words ``person holding any civil or military
employment under the United States'' used in the revised section.
The general language of the revised section was substituted for the
provisions of section 527 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., enumerating
certain officers and employees.
The exception of Alaska by reference to ``section 591 of this
title'' in section 527 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., was omitted as
surplusage. Alaska is excluded by reason of the words ``any court of the
United States'' which are limited by definitive section 451 of this
title.
Changes in phraseology were made.
