    In clause (2), the words ``chief executive officers of the States, 
territories, and possessions of the United States'' are substituted for 
``Governors of the fifty States, our possessions'', and the word 
``countries'' is substituted for ``nations'', for consistency in the 
revised title and with other titles of the United States Code.
