977; 1940 Reorg. Plan No. III, Sec. 2, eff. June 30, 1940, 5 F.R. 2108,

Codification
Subsections (a) to (d) provided for the creation of a Federal
Alcohol Administration as a division of the Treasury Department. By act
June 26, 1936, ch. 830, title V, 49 Stat. 1964, however, those
subsections were repealed and a new Administration created as an
independent agency. The repealing act was to be effective when the new
administrators authorized thereby were appointed. While the officers so
authorized were never appointed and the repeal therefore never became
effective, subsections (a) to (d) have been omitted in view of Reorg.
Plan No. III of 1940, set out in the Appendix to Title 5, Government
Organization and Employees, which abolished the Administration and
transferred its functions to the Secretary of the Treasury to be
administered through the Bureau of Internal Revenue [now Internal
Revenue Service]. See, also, Transfer of Functions note set out under
section 201 of this title.
Amendments
1946--Subsec. (i). Act Aug. 7, 1946, struck out subsec. (i) which
related to reports to Congress by the Secretary of the Treasury with
respect to the administration of the functions charged to the Secretary
under this chapter.
