                          Codification

for ``appropriated by the first sentence of section 1''. The first 
sentence of section 1 of act Aug. 30, 1890, is classified to sections 
322 and 323 of this title, but section 322 only contains the 
appropriation provision.

    1994--Pub. L. 103-382 substituted ``the Federated States of

under this subchapter if they were States. Sums appropriated under this 
section shall be treated in the same manner and be subject to the same 
provisions of law, as would be the case if they had been appropriated by 
section 322 of this title.''
