    The word ``official'' is substituted for ``officers'', and the word 
``Government'' is added, for consistency in the revised title and with 
other titles of the United States Code. The words ``having custody of 
public money'' are substituted for ``or in the accounts of any officer 
disbursing or chargeable with public money'' for clarity and 
consistency. The words ``immediately'' and ``the affairs of . . . or 
officer'' are omitted as surplus.
