Sec. 3055. Officers' powers to suppress Indian liquor traffic
The chief special officer for the suppression of the liquor traffic
among Indians and duly authorized officers working under his supervision
whose appointments are made or affirmed by the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs or the Secretary of the Interior may execute all warrants of
arrest and other lawful precepts issued under the authority of the
United States and in the execution of his duty he may command all
necessary assistance.
(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 817.)
Historical and Revision Notes
Based on section 250 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Indians (Aug.
24, 1912, ch. 388, Sec. 1, 37 Stat. 519).
The only change was to delete the words at the beginning of the
section, ``The powers conferred by section 504 of title 28 upon marshals
and their deputies are conferred upon.'' and the addition, at the end of
the section, of the phrase expressing such powers beginning with the
words ``may execute all warrants''.
