             TITLE 40--PUBLIC BUILDINGS, PROPERTY, AND WORKS
 
                     CHAPTER 4--THE PUBLIC PROPERTY
 
Sec. 318d. Nonuniformed special policemen; powers; arrests 
        without warrant
        
    Officials or employees of the General Services Administration who 
have been duly authorized to perform investigative functions may be 
empowered by the Administrator of General Services, or officials of 
General Services Administration duly authorized by him, to act as 
nonuniformed special policemen in order to protect property under the 
charge and control of the General Services Administration and to carry 
firearms, whether on Federal property or in travel status. Such 
officials or employees who are empowered to act as nonuniformed special 
policemen shall have, while on real property under the charge and 
control of the General Services Administration, the power to enforce 
Federal laws for the protection of persons and property and the power to 
enforce rules and regulations made and published for such purposes by 
the Administrator or duly authorized officials of the General Services 
Administration. Any such special policeman may make arrests without 
warrant for any offense committed upon such property if he has 
reasonable ground to believe (1) the offense constitutes a felony under 
the laws of the United States, and (2) that the person to be arrested is 
guilty of that offense.
