 Mr. Hyde, from the Committee on the Judiciary, submitted the following

                                 REPORT

                        [To accompany H.R. 1085]

      [Including cost estimate of the Congressionsl Budget Office]

    The Committee on the Judiciary, to whom was referred the 
bill (H.R. 1085) to revise, codify, and enact without 
substantive change certain general and permanent laws as title 
36, United States Code, ``Patriotic and National Observances, 
Ceremonies, and Organizations'', having considered the same, 
report favorably thereon with an amendment in the nature of a 
substitute and recommend that the bill, as amended, do pass.

                          COMMITTEE AMENDMENT

    The text of the amendment appears in italic type in the 
reported bill.

                          GENERAL EXPLANATION

    Purpose.--The purpose of the bill is to revise, codify, and 
enact without substantive change certain general and permanent 
laws related to patriotic and national observances, ceremonies, 
and organizations, as title 36, United States Code, ``Patriotic 
and National Observances, Ceremonies, and Organizations''.
    The bill was prepared by the Office of the Law Revision 
Counsel of the House of Representatives as part of its 
functions under section 285b of title 2, United States Code, to 
submit to the Committee on the Judiciary bills to enact the 
titles of the United States Code into positive law.
    Revision of language.--In the restatement of existing law, 
certain changes in language are made. Some of the changes 
result from consolidating related provisions of law. Others are 
made to achieve uniformity within the title and to conform to 
common contemporary usage. Although changes are made in 
language, no substantive changes are made in the law.
    Revision notes.-- For each section of the revised title, 
the source law is identified, both in terms of the United 
States Code and the Statutes at Large. When appropriate, a 
revision note explains any significant or non-obvious changes 
in existing language. However, standard changes made throughout 
the title and described below are not explained each time they 
are made.
    In the revision notes, citations to the United States Code 
are to title, followed by a colon, and then the section number. 
For example, section 1 of title 1 is cited 1:1.
    Standard changes.--Standard changes are made throughout the 
revised title. The most significant are explained here:
    The law is restated in the present tense and the active 
voice as far as possible.
    When there is a choice of 2 or more words, otherwise of 
equal legal effect, the more commonly understood word is used.
    The word ``shall'' is used in the mandatory and imperative 
sense. The word ``may'' is used in the permissive and 
discretionary sense, as in ``is permitted to'' and ``is 
authorized to''. The words ``may not'' are used in a 
prohibitory sense, as in ``is not authorized to'' and ``is not 
permitted to''. The words ``person may not'' mean that no 
person is required, authorized, or permitted to do the act.
    The words ``any part of'' mean ``all or part of'' and ``in 
whole or in part''.
    The word ``includes'' means ``includes but is not limited 
to''.
    The word ``deemed'' is used when a legal fiction, or what 
may in some cases be a legal fiction, is intended. The word 
``is'' is used for statements of fact and legal conclusions.
    When a right is conferred, the words ``is entitled'' or 
their equivalent are used.
    The first time a descriptive title is used in a section, 
the complete title is used. Thereafter, in the same section, a 
shorter title is used unless the context requires the complete 
title to be used. For example, ``Secretary of the Treasury'' is 
used the first time the title appears in a section. 
Subsequently, in the same section, the title ``Secretary'' is 
used.
    The word ``law'' is substituted for ``Act'' and ``joint 
resolution'' because the word ``law'' includes Acts and joint 
resolutions.
    The words ``under section ______'' are used instead of 
``pursuant to section ______'' and ``in accordance with section 
______''.
    The word ``such'' is not used as a demonstrative adjective. 
The use of the word ``each'', ``any'', ``every'', or ``all'' is 
confined to instances in which a doubt could arise if the word 
were not used.
    Provisos are not used. An exception or limitation is 
introduced by the words ``except that'' or ``but'' or by 
placing the excepting or limiting provision in a separate 
sentence.
    The words ``committee of Congress'' include a committee of 
either House of Congress, a joint committee of Congress, or a 
subcommittee of any of those committees.
    Substantive change not made.--As in other codification 
bills enacting titles of the United States Code into positive 
law, this bill makes no substantive change in the law. It is 
sometimes feared that mere changes in terminology and style 
will result in changes in substance or impair the precedent 
value of earlier judicial decisions and other interpretations. 
This fear is not warranted for a codification law. In ordinary 
amendatory legislation, intent to change substance can be 
inferred from a change in language. In a codification law, 
however, the courts uphold the contrary presumption: the law is 
intended to remain substantively unchanged. The following 
authorities affirm this principle:

                                HEARINGS

    Because H.R. 1085 codifies existing law without making any 
substantive change in the law, the Committee did not hold any 
hearings on the bill.

                        COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION

    At a meeting of the Committee on the Judiciary on -------, 
1997, a quorum being present, H.R. 1085, as amended, was 
approved by a voice vote and ordered reported.

                         VOTE OF THE COMMITTEE

    During full committee consideration of H.R. 1085, as 
amended, the Committee took no roll call votes.

                             BUDGET EFFECTS

    A. Statement Regarding New Budget Authority and Tax Expenditures

    Clause 2(l)(3)(B) of rule XI of the Rules of the House of 
Representatives is inapplicable because H.R. 1085, as amended, 
does not provide new budget authority or an increase in tax 
expenditures.

      B. Cost Estimate Prepared by the Congressional Budget Office

    In compliance with clause 2(l)(3)(C) of rule XI of the 
Rules of the House of Representatives, the Director of the 
Congressional Budget Office has submitted the following letter 
reporting on the bill.

                                     U.S. Congress,
                               Congressional Budget Office,
                                  Washington, DC, October 15, 1997.
Hon. Henry J. Hyde,
Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary,
House of Representatives, Washington, DC.
    Dear Mr. Chairman: The Congressional Budget Office has 
prepared the enclosed cost estimate for H.R. 1085, a bill to 
revise, codify, and enact without substantive change certain 
general and permanent laws related to patriotic and national 
observances, ceremonies, and organizations, as Title 36, United 
States Code, ``Patriotic and National Observances, Ceremonies, 
and Organizations.''
    If you wish further details on this estimate, we will be 
pleased to provide them. The CBO staff contact is Mark 
Grabowicz, who can be reached at 226-2860.
            Sincerely,

                                           June E. O'Neill, Director.  
    Enclosure.

H.R. 1085--Revision of Title 36, United States Code, ``Patriotic and 
        National Observances, Ceremonies, and Organizations''
    H.R. 1085 would codify, into Title 36 of the United States 
Code, existing laws related to patriotic and national 
observances, ceremonies, and organizations, and would refine 
awkward language and eliminate obsolete statutes. CBO estimates 
that enacting the bill would result in no cost to the federal 
government. Because H.R. 1085 would not affect direct spending 
or receipts, pay-as-you-go procedures would not apply. The 
legislation contains no intergovernmental or private-sector 
mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 
and would have no impact on the budgets of state, local, or 
tribal governments.
    The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Mark Grabowicz, 
who can be reached at 226-2860. This estimate was approved by 
Robert A. Sunshine, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget 
Analysis.

               C. Committee Estimate on Budgetary Effects

    In compliance with clause 7(a) of rule XIII of the Rules of 
the House of Representatives, the following statement is made 
concerning the effects on the budget of H.R. 1085, as amended: 
The Committee agrees with the estimate prepared by the 
Congressional Budget Office, which is attached.

       OTHER MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSED UNDER THE RULES OF THE HOUSE

          A. Committee Oversight Findings and Recommendations

    With respect to clause 2(b)(1) of rule X and clause 
2(l)(3)(A) of rule XI of the Rules of the House of 
Representatives, the Committee on the Judiciary's oversight 
findings and recommendations are incorporated in the 
descriptive portions of this report.

     B. Committee on Government Reform and Oversight Findings and 
                            Recommendations

    With respect to clause 2(l)(3)(D) of rule XI of the Rules 
of the House of Representatives, because the purpose of H.R. 
1085, as amended, is to codify existing law without making any 
substantive change in the law, no oversight findings or 
recommendations have been received from the Committee on 
Government Reform and Oversight with respect to the bill.

                 C. Constitutional Authority Statement

    With respect to clause 2(l)(4) of rule XI of the Rules of 
the House of Representatives, the Committee states that the 
Committee's action in reporting the bill is derived from 
Article I of the Constitution, Section 8.

                       SECTION-BY-SECTION SUMMARY

                      section 1--revised title 36

    Section 1 of the bill enacts certain general and permanent 
laws related to patriotic and national observances, ceremonies, 
and organizations as title 36, United States Code.

    In this chapter, the word ``Mayor'' is substituted for 
``Commissioners'' in the Presidential Inaugural Ceremonies Act 
(ch. 974, 70 Stat. 1049) [subsequently changed to 
``Commissioner'' in 36:ch. 30 because section 401 of 
Reorganization Plan No. 3 of 1967 (5 App. U.S.C.) transferred 
the functions of the Board of Commissioners of the District of 
Columbia to the Commissioner of the District of Columbia and 
because of 36:730] because of sections 421 and 711 of the 
District of Columbia Self-Government and Governmental 
Reorganization Act (Public Law 93-198, 87 Stat. 789, 818), 
which abolished the office of Commissioner of the District of 
Columbia and replaced it with the office of Mayor of the 
District of Columbia.
    In this section, the text of 36:721(b)(3)-(5) is omitted 
because the complete names of the Mayor of the District of 
Columbia and the Secretaries of Defense and of the Interior are 
used the first time the terms appear in a section.

Columbia'' are substituted for ``District of Columbia Council'' 
because of sections 401 and 711 of the District of Columbia 
Self-Government and Governmental Reorganization Act (Public Law 
93-198, 87 Stat. 785, 818).

    In subsection (a), the words ``from time to time'' are 
omitted as unnecessary.
    In subsection (b), before clause (1), the text of 36:121 
(last par.) is omitted as executed. In clauses (2) and (3), the 
word ``same'' is omitted as unnecessary. In clause (2), the 
words ``authorized to be paid'' are substituted for 
``prescribed'' for consistency with clause (3) and 37:405.
    Subsection (c) is based on 36:122 which is from the 2d 
proviso in the paragraph under the heading ``American Battle 
Monuments Commission'' in title III of the Departments of 
Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development, and 
Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1997 (Public Law 104-
204, 110 Stat. 2907). The provision has been repeated each year 
in prior appropriations acts and therefore is restated as a 
permanent provision. For prior provisions, see citations under 
36:122 (1994 ed.). In the restatement, the words ``in the same 
way as'' are substituted for ``as provided for'' for clarity 
and consistency in the revised title.

    In subsection (a) before clause (1), the words ``or 
appropriations'' are omitted because of 1:1. The words 
``further'' and ``under the jurisdiction of the Commission'' 
are omitted as unnecessary. In clause (2), the words ``who 
shall be hired for local employment relating to the care and 
maintenance of such cemeteries, monuments, and memorials'' are 
omitted as unnecessary.
    Subsections (b) and (c) are based in part on 36:121b and 
122a, which are from the first and last provisos in the 
paragraph under the heading ``American Battle Monuments 
Commission'' in title III of the Departments of Veterans

Agencies Appropriations Act, 1997 (Public Law 104-204, 110

36:121b and 122a (1994 ed.).
    In subsection (b), the words ``departments, agencies, and 
instrumentalities'' are substituted for ``departments or 
agencies'' and ``departments, agencies, and services'' in 
36:121 and ``agencies'' in 36:122a for consistency in the 
revised title and with other titles of the United States Code. 
The words ``or of the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Marine Corps'' 
in 36:121 and ``including the Armed Forces'' in 36:122a are 
omitted as included in ``department, agency, or 
instrumentality''. The words ``as the case may be'' in 36:121 
are omitted as unnecessary. The word ``salary'' in 36:122a is 
omitted as included in ``pay''.
    In subsection (c), the words ``Secretary of the Army'' are 
substituted for ``Department of the Army'' because of 
10:3013(a)(1).

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this section, the word ``terms'' is omitted as included 
in ``conditions''.
    In subsection (a), before clause (1), the words ``or 
appropriations'' are omitted because of 1:1. In clauses (1) and 
(5), the words ``duties and powers'' are substituted for 
``functions'' for consistency in the revised title and with 
other titles of the United States Code. In clause (2), the 
words ``department, agency, or instrumentality'' are 
substituted for ``departments'' for consistency in the revised 
title and with other titles of the Code.
    In subsection (b), the text of 36:137 is omitted as 
superseded. The words ``which has been or may after June 26, 
1946, be'' and ``Provided, That this subsection shall not be 
effective until the expiration of the Surplus Property Act of 
1944'' are omitted as obsolete. Section 38 of the Surplus 
Property Act of 1944 (ch. 479, 58 Stat. 784) provided that the 
Act was to expire 3 years after the cessation of hostilities of 
World War II. The cessation of hostilities was proclaimed on 
December 31, 1946, by Proclamation No. 2714, 12 Fed. Reg. 1. 
However, section 602(a)(1) of the Federal Property and 
Administrative Services Act of 1949 (ch. 288, 63 Stat. 399) 
[renumbered by section 6(a) and (b) of the Act of September 5, 
1950 (ch. 849, 64 Stat. 583)] repealed the Surplus Property Act 
of 1944 effective July 1, 1949 (except for sections 13(d), (g), 
and (h), 28, and 32(b)(2)). Section 13(d), concerning power 
transmission lines, and section 13(g), concerning property for 
public airports, do not involve the American Battle Monuments 
Commission. Section 13(h) was repealed by section 2 of the Act 
of August 4, 1972 (Public Law 92-362, 86 Stat. 504). Section 28 
was repealed by section 21 of the Act of June 25, 1948 (ch. 
645, 62 Stat. 868). Section 32(b)(2) was repealed by section 
111(a)(1) of the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act 
of 1961 (Public Law 87-256, 75 Stat. 538).
    In subsection (c), the words ``in its discretion'', ``by 
contract or otherwise'', and ``firms of architects'' are 
omitted as unnecessary.

for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of

    In subsections (a) and (c)(2), the word ``American'' is 
omitted as unnecessary.
    In subsection (a), the words ``or shall hereafter serve'' 
are omitted as obsolete.
    In subsection (b), the words ``Secretatry of Veterans 
Affairs'' are substituted for ``Department of Defense'', and 
the words ``the National Cemetery System, as described in 
section 2400(b) of title 38'' are substituted for ``cemeteries 
within the United States, its Territories and possessions'', 
because of section 6 of the National Cemeteries Act of 1973 
(Public Law 93-43, 38 U.S.C. 2404 note), which transferred 
jurisdiction over and responsibility for the national 
cemeteries (with certain exceptions) from the Secretary of the 
Army to the Administrator of Veterans' Affairs.
    In subsection (c)(2), the words ``duties and powers'' are 
substituted for ``functions'' for consistency in the revised

    In subsections (b), (c), and (e), the text of 36:125(d) is 
omitted as unnecessary.
    In subsection (b)(1), before clause (A), the words ``in its 
discretion'' and ``before, on, or after the effective date of 
this subsection'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words 
``governmental authority (except a department, agency, or 
instrumentality of the United States Government)'' are 
substituted for ``non-Federal governmental agency'' for 
consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the 
United States Code. In clause (B), the word ``title'' is 
omitted as included in ``rights''.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The words ``Secretary of Veterans Affairs'' are substituted 
for ``Secretary of the Army'' because of section 6 of the 
National Cemeteries Act of 1973 (Public Law 93-43, 38 U.S.C. 
2404 note), which transferred jurisdiction over and 
responsibility for the national cemeteries (with certain 
exceptions) from the Secretary of the Army to the Administrator 
of Veterans' Affairs. The words ``as may be determined by the 
Commission'' are omitted as unnecessary.

    The words ``section 2734 of title 10'' and ``section 2734'' 
are substituted for ``the first section of the Act entitled `An 
Act to provide for the prompt settlement of claims for damages 
occasioned by Army, Navy, and Marine Corps forces in foreign 
countries', approved January 2, 1942 (55 Stat. 880, as amended; 
31 U.S.C. 224d)'' and ``such Act'', respectively, in section 12 
(4th par.) of the Act of March 4, 1923 (ch. 283), as added by 
section 4(c)(3) of the Act of July 25, 1956 (ch. 721, 70 Stat. 
642), because of section 49(b) of the Act of August 10, 1956 
(ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 640). The 1942 law enacted former 31:224d, 
224h, and 224i. Those sections subsequently were codified as 
10:2734 and repealed by the Act of August 10, 1956 (ch. 1041, 
70A Stat. 154, 672). The words ``both real and personal'' are 
omitted as unnecessary. The words ``on or after July 25, 1956'' 
are omitted as obsolete. The words ``or commissions'' are 
omitted because of 1:1. The words ``settled, decided'' are 
substituted for ``considered, ascertained, adjusted, 
determined'' to eliminate unnecessary words.

    In subsection (c), the words ``temporary or intermittent'' 
are added for clarity and consistency with 5:3109. The 
reference to section 5376 of title 5 is substituted for the 
reference to grade GS-18 of the General Schedule because of 
section 529 [101(c)(1)] of the Treasury, Postal Service and 
General Government Appropriations Act, 1991 (Public Law 101-
509, 104 Stat. 1442).
    In subsection (d), the words ``or authorities'' are added 
for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of 
the United States Code and for clarity because the Council may 
make contracts or other arrangements with State authorities.
    In subsection (e), the words ``departments, agencies, and 
instrumentalities in the executive branch of the United States 
Government'' are substituted for ``executive branch 
departments, agencies, and establishments of the United 
States'' for consistency in the revised title and with other 
titles of the Code.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In this section, the text of 36:1101 is omitted as 
unnecessary because of the addition of the words ``Except as 
otherwise provided'' in subsection (a) of this section. The 
text of 36:1166, 1213(a), and 5206(a) is omitted as unnecessary 
because of the restatement of 36:1102 and 1103 as general 
provisions covering, except as otherwise provided, all 
federally chartered corporations referred to in part B of 
subtitle II of the revised title. The text of 36:1084 (less (b) 
(2d sentence cl. (2))), 4315 (less (b) (2d sentence cl. (2))), 
4514 (less (b) (2d sentence cl. (2))), and 4610 (less (b) (2d 
sentence cl. (2))) is omitted as unnecessary because of the 
restatement in this section of the general audit provisions of 
36:1102 and 1103.
    In subsection (a), before clause (1), the words ``Except as 
otherwise provided'' are added because certain corporations 
referred to in part B of subtitle II of the revised title are 
not covered by the audit requirements restated in the revised 
section. The words ``at the place or places'' and ``or 
persons'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``financial 
statements'' are substituted for ``accounts'' to use the 
generally accepted term for audits conducted by public 
accountants. The words ``shall be given access to'' are 
substituted for ``shall be made available to'' and ``shall be 
afforded to'' for consistency. In clause (1), the words 
``records and property owned or used by'' are substituted for 
``books, accounts, financial records, reports, files, and all 
other papers, things, or property belonging to or in use by'' 
for consistency in the revised title and with other titles of 
the United States Code and to eliminate unnecessary words.
    In subsection (b)(1)(B), the words ``supplemented . . . 
by'' and ``carried on by the corporation'' are omitted as 
unnecessary.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In subsection (a), the source provisions are restated as a 
general provision to avoid the need to repeat identical 
provisions. The words ``but no contract or individual right 
made or acquired shall be divested or impaired'' in 36:104 and 
``but no contract or individual right made or acquired shall 
thereby be divested or impaired'' in 36:5311 are omitted as 
unnecessary and for consistency in the revised title.
    Subsection (b) is added because the chapters referred to in 
subsection (b) restate laws which Congress did not expressly 
reserve the right to amend or repeal.

    In subsection (a), the provision for the National Matches 
to be held as prescribed by ``the Secretary of the Army'' is 
retained notwithstanding section 1612(d) of The National 
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996 (Public Law 104-
106, 110 Stat. 517) which transferred the Civilian Marksmanship 
Program, including the National Matches, from the Secretary of 
the Army to the corporation. The conforming amendments in 
section 1624 of the Act (110 Stat. 522) did not repeal the 
authority of the Secretary of the Army to prescribe National 
Matches under 10:4312 or to prescribe subsistence and travel 
allowances for competitors under 10:4313.

    In this section, the definition of ``State'' in 36:588 is

``not inconsistent with the laws of the United States of 
America or any State in which the corporation is to operate''

gift, purchase, grant, devise, bequest, or otherwise, any 
property, real or personal, or mixed, necessary for carrying 
into effect the purposes of the corporation'' and ``transfer, 
lease, or convey real or personal property'' for consistency in 
the revised title and to eliminate unnecessary words. The words 
``subject to applicable provisions of law of any State (1) 
governing the amount or kind of real and personal property 
which may be held by, or (2) otherwise limiting or controlling 
the ownership of real and personal property by, a corporation 
operating in such State'' are omitted as unnecessary.
    In clause (6), the words ``for the purposes of the 
corporation'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``issue 
instruments of indebtedness, and secure its obligations by 
granting security interests in its property'' are substituted 
for ``issue bonds or other evidences of indebtedness therefor, 
and secure the same by mortgage or pledge'' for consistency in 
the revised title. The words ``subject to applicable Federal or 
State laws'' are omitted as unnecessary.
    In clause (7), the words ``complain and defend in any court

Security Agency'' and ``that service'', respectively, in 
section 7(c) of the Act of August 30, 1950 (ch. 823, 64 Stat. 
565), because of sections 5 and 8 of Reorganization Plan No. 1 
of 1953 (5 App. U.S.C.) and 20:3441 and 3507. In clause (3), 
the reference to the Vocational Education Act of 1946 (ch. 541, 
49 Stat. 1488) is omitted because that Act was repealed by 
section 103 of the Act of October 16, 1968 (Public Law 90-576, 
82 Stat. 1091).

    The words ``Secretary of Education'' and ``Secretary'' are 
substituted for ``United States Commissioner of Education'', 
``Commissioner of Education'', and ``Commissioner'', and the 
words ``Department of Education'' are substituted for ``Office 
of Education'', in section 18 of the Act of August 30, 1950 
(ch. 823, 64 Stat. 567), because of 20:3441 and 3507. The words 
``with the approval of the Federal Security Administrator'' and 
``with the approval of the Administrator'' are omitted because 
the functions of the Federal Security Administrator were 
transferred to the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare 
by section 5 of Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 1953 (5 App. 
U.S.C.), and were subsequently transferred to the Secretary of 
Education by 20:3441. See also 20:3507. Substitution of a 
reference to the ``Secretary of Education'' would result in a 
requirement of the Secretary's own approval. The word 
``activities'' (the first time it appears) is substituted for 
``business and activities'' for consistency in the revised 
title.

    In this section, the text of 36:478 is omitted as executed 
and obsolete.
    In clause (1), the word ``alter'' is omitted as 
unnecessary. The words ``not inconsistent with the laws of the 
United States or any State in which the corporation is to

heretofore been used by the Illinois corporation referred to in 
section 478 of this title in carrying out its program'' are 
omitted as unnecessary. The words ``This section does not 
affect any vested rights'' are substituted for ``it being

are substituted for ``inure to'' for consistency in the revised

are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``This subsection does 
not prevent'' are substituted for ``Nothing in this subsection, 
however, shall be construed to prevent'' to eliminate 
unnecessary words. The words ``board of directors'' are 
substituted for ``executive committee'' because the source 
provisions for this chapter do not mention an executive 
committee and, under section 152504 of this title, the 
governing body of the corporation is the board of directors.

    In this section, the text of 36:1306 (1st sentence) is 
omitted as executed and obsolete.
    Before clause (1), the word ``objects'' is omitted as

eliminate unnecessary words.

``enact'', the word ``regulations'' is substituted for ``rules, 
and regulations'', and the words ``for the management of its 
property and the regulation of its affairs'' are substituted

consistency in the revised title. The words ``not inconsistent 
with this chapter or other provisions of law'' are omitted as 
unnecessary.

corporation require'' are substituted for ``as may be necessary

granting security interests in its property'' are substituted

case to all applicable provisions of Federal and State law'' 
are omitted as unnecessary.
    In clause (10), the words ``State, regional, local, and 
overseas'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``as needed'' 
are substituted for ``in such manner and by such rules as it 
deems appropriate so as to enable it'', and the words ``to

the objects and purposes set forth in section 1302 of this 
title'', to eliminate unnecessary words.
    In clause (11), the word ``raise'' is omitted as included 
in ``solicit''. The words ``for the accomplishment of its 
purposes'' are omitted as unnecessary. The words ``accept 
gifts, legacies, devises, and support in furtherance thereof''

[and] own . . . property'' (in clause (6)).
    In clause (12), the words ``in any court'' are omitted as 
unnecessary.

substituted for ``the foregoing specifically enumerated 
purposes'' for clarity and consistency in the revised section.

    Subsection (a)(1) is substituted for ``land occupied in 
part on June 7, 1924, by the Memorial to the Women of the Civil 
War, the permanent headquarters of the American Red Cross'' in 
36:15 because the words in the source refer to the building, 
provided for by the Act of October 22, 1913 (ch. 32 (par. under 
heading ``Monument to Commemorate the Women of the Civil 
War''), 38 Stat. 233), that was built as the permanent 
headquarters of the American Red Cross, the predecessor 
organization to the corporation.
    In subsection (a)(2), the words ``That there is hereby 
authorized to be appropriated out of any money in the Treasury 
not otherwise appropriated the sum of $150,000 as a part 
contribution to the erection of . . . with equipment'' in 
section 1 of the Act June 7, 1924 (ch. 369, 43 Stat. 665), are 
omitted as executed. The words ``That said memorial shall be a 
building monumental in design and character . . . and shall 
cost not less than $300,000: Provided, That this expenditure 
shall include complete equipment'' in section 2 of that Act are 
omitted as executed. The words ``The expenditures for said 
memorial building shall be made under the direction of a 
commission consisting of the chairman of the Senate Committee 
on the Library and the chairman of the House Committee on the 
Library'' in section 4 (last par.) of that Act are omitted as 
executed. The text of section 4 (1st par.) of that Act is 
omitted as executed. The words ``of America'' are omitted as 
unnecessary. The words ``its territories and possessions'' are 
substituted for ``its insular possessions'' for clarity and 
consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the 
United States Code. The words ``World War I'' are substituted 
for ``the World War'' for clarity.
    In subsection (a)(3), the words ``That authority be, and is 
hereby, given to the American National Red Cross to erect . . . 
in replacement of the temporary building or buildings erected 
on such lot under Public Resolution Numbered 3, Sixty-fifth 
Congress (S.J. Res. 61)'' in section 1 of the Act of February 
7, 1930 (ch. 42, 46 Stat. 66) are omitted as executed.
    In subsection (b), the words ``Administrator of General 
Services'' are substituted for ``Superintendent of Public 
Buildings and Grounds'' in section 4 (last par.) of the Act 
June 7, 1924 (ch. 369, 43 Stat. 666) and ``Director of Public 
Buildings and Public Parks of the National Capital'' in section 
5 of the Act of February 7, 1930 (ch. 42, 46 Stat. 66) to 
reflect subsequent transfers of functions. The office of Public 
Buildings and Grounds under the Chief of Engineers was 
abolished and the functions of the Chief of Engineers, United 
States Army, were transferred to the Director of Public 
Buildings and Public Parks of the National Capital by section 3 
of the Act of February 26, 1925 (ch. 339, 43 Stat. 983). The 
office of Public Buildings and Public Parks of the National 
Capital was abolished and its functions transferred to the 
Office of National Parks, Buildings and Reservations of the 
Department of the Interior by section 2 of Executive Order No. 
6166, effective June 10, 1933. The name of the latter office 
was changed to ``National Park Service'' by section 1 of the 
Act of March 2, 1934 (ch. 38, 48 Stat. 389). The functions of 
the Director of the National Park Service related to public 
buildings were transferred to the Federal Works Administrator 
by section 303(b) of Reorganization Plan No. I of 1939 (5 App. 
U.S.C.). The functions of the Federal Works Administrator were 
transferred to the Administrator of General Services by section 
103(a) of the Act of June 30, 1949 (ch. 288, 63 Stat. 380). The 
words ``the corporation shall care for and maintain the 
buildings'' are substituted for ``the American National Red 
Cross shall at all times be charged with the responsibility, 
the care, keeping, and maintenance of said building'' in 36:13, 
and ``the American Red Cross shall at all times be charged with 
the responsibility, the care, keeping, and maintenance of the 
said memorial building'' in 36:15, for clarity and to eliminate 
unnecessary words.

    In subsection (d), the words ``Veterans Day'' are 
substituted for ``Armistice Day'' because of the Act of June 1, 
1954 (ch. 250, 68 Stat. 168).

------------------------------------------------------------------------

                              Section 2(b)

  Section 2(b) makes a conforming amendment to the chapter 
analysis of chapter 1 of title 4, United States Code.

                    section 3--conforming provisions

    Section 3 of the bill makes a conforming amendment to 
section 1332 of title 44, United States Code, because the 
chapter related to the United Spanish War Veterans is not being 
restated in title 36. See note for 36:56-56h in table 3A of 
this report.

                 section 4--conforming cross-references

    Section 4 of the bill makes conforming cross-reference 
amendments to those titles of the United States Code that have 
been enacted into positive law. These amendments are necessary 
because of the restatement of the source provisions in sections 
1 and 2 of the bill.

            section 5--legislative purpose and construction

    Section 5 of the bill contains a statement of the 
legislative effect in enacting sections 1 and 2, savings 
provisions, and provisions to assist in interpreting and 
applying the provisions of law enacted by the bill.

                           section 6--repeals

    Section 6 of the bill relates to the repeal of those 
statutes that are codified and reenacted by the bill, and other 
statutes that are executed, superseded, obsolete, or otherwise 
of no present legal effect.
    Subsection (a) provides that a repeal of a law may not be 
construed as a legislative inference that the provision was or 
was not in effect before its repeal.
    Subsection (b) contains the schedule of laws to be 
repealed. It also preserves rights, duties, and penalties 
incurred, and proceedings begun, before the date of enactment 
of the bill.

                   TABLE 1--MASTER DISPOSITION TABLE

    Table 1 shows the disposition of all laws affected by the 
codification of title 36, United States Code, in section 1 of 
the bill. This table is in 2 parts. Table 1A shows the 
disposition according to United States Code citation. Table 1B 
shows the disposition according to Statutes at Large citation. 
For each law restated in section 1 of the bill, a citation to 
the ``United States Code Revised'' indicates where the law is 
restated. For each law affected by the codification but not 
restated in section 1 of the bill, a reference is shown to 
table 2, 3, or 4, another section of the bill, or another 
section of the Code. Tables 2, 3, and 4 explain why laws listed 
in those tables are not restated in section 1 of the bill. If a 
law was expressly repealed by a prior law, that fact is shown 
in the last column of this table.

remedies as required by paragraph (1) of this subsection. If the

          (B) revoke the recognition of the national governing body.
  (3) If the corporation places a national governing body on probation 
under paragraph (2) of this subsection, it may extend the probationary

additional time to comply with sections 220522, 220524, and 220525 of 
this title. If, at the end of the period allowed by the corporation, 
the national governing body has not complied with those sections, the

mail, and a copy of the application shall be served on the national 
governing body. The corporation shall inform the applicant that its 
application has been received.

under this section, the corporation shall conduct a formal hearing to 
determine the merits of the application. The corporation shall publish 
notice of the time and place of the hearing in a regular issue of its

their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, 
the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, 
face the flag, and render the military salute.
``Sec. 5. Display and use of flag by civilians; codification of rules 
                    and customs; definition
  ``The following codification of existing rules and customs pertaining 
to the display and use of the flag of the United States of America is 
established for the use of such civilians or civilian groups or 
organizations as may not be required to conform with regulations 
promulgated by one or more executive departments of the Government of 
the United States. The flag of the United States for the purpose of 
this chapter shall be defined according to sections 1 and 2 of this 
title and Executive Order 10834 issued pursuant thereto.
``Sec. 6. Time and occasions for display
  ``(a) It is the universal custom to display the flag only from

hours of darkness.
  ``(b) The flag should be hoisted briskly and lowered ceremoniously.
  ``(c) The flag should not be displayed on days when the weather is 
inclement, except when an all weather flag is displayed.
  ``(d) The flag should be displayed on all days, especially on New 
Year's Day, January 1; Inauguration Day, January 20; Lincoln's 
Birthday, February 12; Washington's Birthday, third Monday in February; 
Easter Sunday (variable); Mother's Day, second Sunday in May; Armed

  ``(e) The flag should be displayed daily on or near the main 
administration building of every public institution.
  ``(f) The flag should be displayed in or near every polling place on 
election days.
  ``(g) The flag should be displayed during school days in or near 
every schoolhouse.
``Sec. 7. Position and manner of display
  ``The flag, when carried in a procession with another flag or flags, 
should be either on the marching right; that is, the flag's own right, 
or, if there is a line of other flags, in front of the center of that 
line.
  ``(a) The flag should not be displayed on a float in a parade except 
from a staff, or as provided in subsection (i) of this section.
  ``(b) The flag should not be draped over the hood, top, sides, or 
back of a vehicle or of a railroad train or a boat. When the flag is 
displayed on a motorcar, the staff shall be fixed firmly to the chassis 
or clamped to the right fender.
  ``(c) No other flag or pennant should be placed above or, if on the 
same level, to the right of the flag of the United States of America, 
except during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea, when 
the church pennant may be flown above the flag during church services 
for the personnel of the Navy. No person shall display the flag of the 
United Nations or any other national or international flag equal, 
above, or in a position of superior prominence or honor to, or in place 
of, the flag of the United States at any place within the United States 
or any Territory or possession thereof: Provided, That nothing in this 
section shall make unlawful the continuance of the practice heretofore 
followed of displaying the flag of the United Nations in a position of 
superior prominence or honor, and other national flags in positions of 
equal prominence or honor, with that of the flag of the United States 
at the headquarters of the United Nations.
  ``(d) The flag of the United States of America, when it is displayed 
with another flag against a wall from crossed staffs, should be on the 
right, the flag's own right, and its staff should be in front of the 
staff of the other flag.
  ``(e) The flag of the United States of America should be at the 
center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags of 
States or localities or pennants of societies are grouped and displayed 
from staffs.
  ``(f) When flags of States, cities, or localities, or pennants of 
societies are flown on the same halyard with the flag of the United 
States, the latter should always be at the peak. When the flags are 
flown from adjacent staffs, the flag of the United States should be 
hoisted first and lowered last. No such flag or pennant may be placed 
above the flag of the United States or to the United States flag's 
right.
  ``(g) When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be 
flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of 
approximately equal size. International usage forbids the display of 
the flag of one nation above that of another nation in time of peace.
  ``(h) When the flag of the United States is displayed from a staff 
projecting horizontally or at an angle from the window sill, balcony, 
or front of a building, the union of the flag should be placed at the 
peak of the staff unless the flag is at half staff. When the flag is 
suspended over a sidewalk from a rope extending from a house to a pole 
at the edge of the sidewalk, the flag should be hoisted out, union 
first, from the building.
  ``(i) When displayed either horizontally or vertically against a 
wall, the union should be uppermost and to the flag's own right, that 
is, to the observer's left. When displayed in a window, the flag should 
be displayed in the same way, with the union or blue field to the left 
of the observer in the street.
  ``(j) When the flag is displayed over the middle of the street, it 
should be suspended vertically with the union to the north in an east 
and west street or to the east in a north and south street.
  ``(k) When used on a speaker's platform, the flag, if displayed flat, 
should be displayed above and behind the speaker. When displayed from a 
staff in a church or public auditorium, the flag of the United States 
of America should hold the position of superior prominence, in advance 
of the audience, and in the position of honor at the clergyman's or 
speaker's right as he faces the audience. Any other flag so displayed 
should be placed on the left of the clergyman or speaker or to the 
right of the audience.
  ``(l) The flag should form a distinctive feature of the ceremony of 
unveiling a statue or monument, but it should never be used as the 
covering for the statue or monument.
  ``(m) The flag, when flown at half-staff, should be first hoisted to 
the peak for an instant and then lowered to the half-staff position. 
The flag should be again raised to the peak before it is lowered for 
the day. On Memorial Day the flag should be displayed at half-staff 
until noon only, then raised to the top of the staff. By order of the 
President, the flag shall be flown at half-staff upon the death of 
principal figures of the United States Government and the Governor of a 
State, territory, or possession, as a mark of respect to their memory. 
In the event of the death of other officials or foreign dignitaries, 
the flag is to be displayed at half-staff according to Presidential 
instructions or orders, or in accordance with recognized customs or 
practices not inconsistent with law. In the event of the death of a 
present or former official of the government of any State, territory, 
or possession of the United States, the Governor of that State, 
territory, or possession may proclaim that the National flag shall be 
flown at half-staff. The flag shall be flown at half-staff thirty days 
from the death of the President or a former President; ten days from 
the day of death of the Vice President, the Chief Justice or a retired 
Chief Justice of the United States, or the Speaker of the House of 
Representatives; from the day of death until interment of an Associate 
Justice of the Supreme Court, a Secretary of an executive or military 
department, a former Vice President, or the Governor of a State, 
territory, or possession; and on the day of death and the following day 
for a Member of Congress. The flag shall be flown at halfstaff on Peace 
Officers Memorial Day, unless that day is also Armed Forces Day. As 
used in this subsection--
          ``(1) the term `half-staff' means the position of the flag 
        when it is one-half the distance between the top and bottom of 
        the staff;
          ``(2) the term `executive or military department' means any 
        agency listed under sections 101 and 102 of title 5; and
          ``(3) the term `Member of Congress' means a Senator, a 
        Representative, a Delegate, or the Resident Commissioner from 
        Puerto Rico.
  ``(n) When the flag is used to cover a casket, it should be so placed 
that the union is at the head and over the left shoulder. The flag 
should not be lowered into the grave or allowed to touch the ground.
  ``(o) When the flag is suspended across a corridor or lobby in a 
building with only one main entrance, it should be suspended vertically 
with the union of the flag to the observer's left upon entering. If the 
building has more than one main entrance, the flag should be suspended 
vertically near the center of the corridor or lobby with the union to 
the north, when entrances are to the east and west or to the east when 
entrances are to the north and south. If there are entrances in more 
than two directions, the union should be to the east.
``Sec. 8. Respect for flag
  ``No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of 
America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. 
Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags 
are to be dipped as a mark of honor.
  ``(a) The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except 
as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or 
property.
  ``(b) The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the 
ground, the floor, water, or merchandise.
  ``(c) The flag should never be carried flat or horizontally, but 
always aloft and free.
  ``(d) The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or 
drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, 
but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, 
always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the 
red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the 
front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
  ``(e) The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored 
in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged 
in any way.
  ``(f) The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling.
  ``(g) The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of 
it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, 
design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
  ``(h) The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, 
holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
  ``(i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any 
manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as 
cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed 
on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary 
use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or 
halyard from which the flag is flown.
  ``(j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or 
athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform 
of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic 
organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself 
considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a 
replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.
  ``(k) The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a 
fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, 
preferably by burning.
``Sec. 9. Conduct during hoisting, lowering or passing of flag
  ``During the ceremony of hoisting or lowering the flag or when the 
flag is passing in a parade or in review, all persons present except 
those in uniform should face the flag and stand at attention with the 
right hand over the heart. Those present in uniform should render the 
military salute. When not in uniform, men should remove their headdress 
with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being 
over the heart. Aliens should stand at attention. The salute to the 
flag in a moving column should be rendered at the moment the flag 
passes.
``Sec. 10. Modification of rules and customs by President
  ``Any rule or custom pertaining to the display of the flag of the 
United States of America, set forth herein, may be altered, modified, 
or repealed, or additional rules with respect thereto may be 
prescribed, by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United 
States, whenever he deems it to be appropriate or desirable; and any 
such alteration or additional rule shall be set forth in a 
proclamation.''.
  (b) The analysis of chapter 1 of title 4, United States Code, is 
amended by adding at the end the following new items:

 ``4.  Pledge of allegiance to the flag; manner of delivery.
 ``5.  Display and use of flag by civilians; codification of rules and 
          customs; definition.
