The words ‘‘a federally-owned corporation’’ are sub-
stituted for ‘‘any corporation in which the United
States or its representatives shall own the entire out-
standing capital stock’’ because of the definition of
‘‘federally-owned corporation’’ in section 30902 of the
revised title. The words ‘‘after March 9, 1920’’ are omit-

herein made for a libel in personam’’ are omitted as un-
necessary. The words ‘‘or its possessions’’ are omitted
because of the definition of ‘‘United States’’ in chapter
1 of the revised title. The words ‘‘Provided, That this
chapter shall not apply to the Panama Canal Commis-

dissolved. See 22 U.S.C. 3714a.
