Preface

This book contains a general index to those provisions of the Code of Federal Regulations which were in force and effect on January 1, 1956. It replaces the General Index published in 1950 and its Pocket Supplement. Since the provisions of the Code which were in effect on January 1, 1956, appear in part in the basic Code volumes and in part in the Pocket Supplements to those volumes, the index references may lead either to the basic Code volumes, or to Pocket Supplements, or to both.

Subject matter is indexed primarily under the names of agencies issuing regulations, and there each regulation is treated in detail. There are also many main entries giving references to ideas of general interest. References are not to pages but to Code title and part, or to title and section: e. g., "7 Part 58" refers to Part 58 in Title 7, and "7 § 58.5" refers to section 58.5 in Title 7.

Reprints of the General Prefaces to the 1949 Edition of the Code of Federal Regulations, and to the 1938 Edition, follow this preface.
