                          Codification

    Subsections (a) to (d) provided for the creation of a Federal 
Alcohol Administration as a division of the Treasury Department. By act 
June 26, 1936, ch. 830, title V, 49 Stat. 1964, however, those 
subsections were repealed and a new Administration created as an 
independent agency. The repealing act was to be effective when the new 
administrators authorized thereby were appointed. While the officers so 
authorized were never appointed and the repeal therefore never became 
effective, subsections (a) to (d) have been omitted in view of Reorg. 
Plan No. III of 1940, set out in the Appendix to Title 5, Government 
Organization and Employees, which abolished the Administration and 
transferred its functions to the Secretary of the Treasury to be 
administered through the Bureau of Internal Revenue [now Internal 
Revenue Service]. See, also, Transfer of Functions note set out under 
section 201 of this title.


                               Amendments

    1946--Subsec. (i). Act Aug. 7, 1946, struck out subsec. (i) which 
related to reports to Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury with 
respect to the administration of the functions charged to the Secretary 
under this chapter.
