The word ``agency'' is substituted for ``officer or agency of the
Federal Government or by any Government corporation'' and ``agency or
instrumentality of the United States'' because of section 101 of the
revised title, for consistency, and because a Government corporation is
an ``instrumentality of the United States Government''. The word
``establish'' is substituted for ``created, organized'' to eliminate
unnecessary words. The words ``on or after December 6, 1945'' are
omitted as executed. The words ``law of the United States'' are
substituted for ``Act of Congress'' for consistency.
