Section 1344 - Notes
SOURCE
(June 25, 1948, ch. 646, 62 Stat. 932.)
HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Sec. 41(15) (Mar. 3, 1911,
ch. 231, Sec. 24, par. 15, 36 Stat. 1092).
Words "civil action" were substituted for "suits," in view of
Rule 2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Words "United States Senator" were added, as no reason appears
for including Representatives and excluding Senators. Moreover, the
Seventeenth amendment, providing for the popular election of
Senators, was adopted after the passage of the 1911 law on which
this section is based.
Changes were made in phraseology.
