WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, August 1, 1931.

Supplement II to the Military Laws of the United States, 1929, containing additions and amendments made by the Seventy-first Congress is published for the information and guidance of all concerned. There have been added also certain provisions omitted from the original text, and certain provisions included in the original text but since determined to be no longer in effect have been eliminated. This supplement supersedes Supplement I, October 1, 1930.

So-called "recurring provisions" are designated in the original text by the note "A similar provision has appeared in prior appropriation acts." When no change is indicated, it is to be understood that such provisions are repeated in substantially the same form in the corresponding appropriation acts for subsequent years.

Sections designated by a small letter following the number are new. New matter added to or amending existing sections is so described in an explanatory note.

In the tables the terms "reference added" and "reference eliminated " are used where the citation to an existing section is corrected, as indicated by note thereunder, but without any change in the text of the section; and also to make corrections in the tables which involve no change in either the text or citation of existing sections.
