65 Stat. 720; Pub. L. 90-19, Sec. 24(d), May 25, 1967, 81 Stat. 28; Pub.
L. 103-322, title XXXIII, Sec. 330016(1)(H), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat.

Historical and Revision Notes
Based on sections 1423-1425 of title 42, U.S.C., 1940 ed., The
Public Health and Welfare (Sept. 1, 1937, ch. 896, Secs. 23-25, 50 Stat.
899).
Three sections were consolidated with changes of phraseology and
arrangement necessary to effect consolidation.
Words ``upon conviction thereof'', in each section were omitted as
surplusage since punishment cannot be imposed until after conviction.
The provisions of section 1424 of title 42, U.S.C., 1940 ed., The
Public Health and Welfare, relating to conspiracy were omitted as
inconsistent with the general conspiracy statute, section 371 of this
title, both as to punishment and allegation and proof of an overt act.
(See reviser's note under section 493 of this title.)
Amendments
1994--Pub. L. 103-322 substituted ``fined under this title'' for
``fined not more than $1,000'' in last par.
1967--Pub. L. 90-19 substituted ``Department of Housing and Urban
Development'' for ``Public Housing Administration'' in section catchline
and text, and ``Department'' for ``Administration'' wherever appearing
in text.
1951--Act Oct. 31, 1951, substituted ``Public Housing
Administration'' for ``United States Housing Authority'' in section
catchline and text, and ``Administration'' for ``Authority'', wherever
appearing in text.
