NOTES AND DECISIONS

Derivation.  Section 16 derives from section 12B(q) of the Federal Reserve Act, as added by section 8 of the Act of June 16, 1933 (Pub. L. No. 66; 48 Stat. 177), effective June 16, 1933. Section 12B(q) of the Federal Reserve Act was amended by section 101[12B(q)] of title I of the Act of August 23, 1935 (Pub. L. No. 305; 49 Stat. 700), effective August 23, 1935. By section 1 of the Act of September 21, 1950 (Pub. L. No. 797; 64 Stat. 873), effective September 21, 1950, section 12B of the Federal Reserve Act was withdrawn as a part of that Act and was made a separate act known as the "Federal Deposit Insurance Act."
