PREFACE

The statutes collected in this Supplement connect, without break or duplication, with those contained in the 1920 Supplement. They are the general, permanent, and public acts passed by Congress between December 19, 1920, and December 31, 1921. These acts are classified according to the scheme of titles in the main work, and in using this Supplement the reader should examine the corresponding title to locate the late, amendatory, or repealing legislation on the topic under consideration.

The latter part of the volume is devoted to the supplemental notes. These supplemental notes connect directly with and continue those in the 1920 Supplement, and present all the subsequent decisions construing the statutes contained in the prior volumes. The arrangement is by title, volume, page, and section as the statutes are found in preceding volumes, and the investigator has merely to turn to the corresponding title, volume, page and section as shown by the captions in this Supplement to find the late cases. The omission of a title or of page and section captions implies that no new cases have been found.

Tables of titles, Revised Statutes sections, and statutes chronologically arranged are included, together with a table connecting the notes with the first edition and supplements thereto.

Supplemental notes to the Constitution are also included in this volume.
