                       HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES                   
      Based on title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 96 (Mar. 4, 1909, ch.
    321, Sec. 44, 35 Stat. 1097; Mar. 4, 1917, ch. 180, 39 Stat. 1194;
    May 22, 1917, ch. 20, Sec. 19, 40 Stat. 89).
      Jurisdiction and venue provisions were omitted as unnecessary and
    inconsistent with Rule 18 of the Federal Rules of Criminal
    Procedure providing for prosecution where the offense is committed,
    and section 3238 of this title providing that trial of offenses
    committed outside any district shall be in the district where the
    offender is found, or into which he is first brought.
      Words "on conviction thereof" were omitted as surplusage as
    punishment cannot be imposed until conviction is had.
      Minor changes were made in phraseology.
