The possession by a person of intoxicating liquors in Indian country

Historical and Revision Notes
Based on section 245 of title 25, U.S.C., 1940 ed., Indians (May 18,
1916, ch. 125, Sec. 1, 39 Stat. 124).
The only change made was the insertion of the word ``Indian'' before
``country'', to substitute specificity for generality. (See definition
of ``Indian country'' in section 1151 of this title.)
