Notes:
(Private 284.) and NOTE.—The public and private acts and public and private joint resolutions are first published separately, and in this form are known as "slip laws." Heretofore, at the end of each session of Congress they have been published in a paper edition popularly known as Session or Pamphlet laws; subsequently the Session laws for the whole Congress were printed in a permanent bound edition entitled Statutes at large.
Beginning with the 75th Congress in accordance with provisions of S. 3440, 74th Congress (Public 724, approved June 20, 1936), the Session or Pamphlet laws were discontinued and the Statutes at large heretofore published at the end of a Congress will be issued at the end of each session of Congress.
Each act of Congress in slip form now bears the chapter number of the Statutes at large in which it will appear later, as well as the session of Congress to which it belongs, but this information does not appear in the entries listed below.
