In this chapter, the words ``common carrier'' are substituted for
``carrier'' because the source provisions restated in this section
provide that this chapter applies to bills of lading issued by common
carriers.
In clause (2), the words ``territory or possession'' are substituted
for ``Territory'' for consistency in the revised title and with other
titles of the United States Code.
