Page 104 TITLE 18—CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE § 291 or attorney, the discharge papers of any such soldier, sailor, or marine, or commissioned offi- cer, which may have been placed in his hands for the purpose of collecting said claims, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both; and shall be debarred from prosecuting any such claim in any depart- ment or agency of the United States. (June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 699; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(1)(G), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2147.) HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES Based on section 100 of title 31, Money and Finance, section 130 of title 38, Pensions, Bonuses, and Veterans’ Relief, and section 841 of title 43, Public Lands, all U.S.C., 1940 ed. (May 21, 1872, ch. 178, 17 Stat. 137). Words ‘‘deemed guilty of a misdemeanor’’ were de- leted as unnecessary. (See definition of ‘‘misdemeanor’’ in section 1 of this title.) Words ‘‘and shall upon conviction, be’’ were omitted as surplusage since punishment can follow only after conviction. To clarify meaning of ‘‘executive department’’ word ‘‘executive’’ before ‘‘department’’ was deleted and words ‘‘or agency’’ were inserted after it. (See defini- tions of ‘‘department’’ and ‘‘agency’’ in section 6 of this title.) Words ‘‘bounty’’, before ‘‘pension’’, and ‘‘or land war- rant’’, before ‘‘of any such soldier’’, were deleted as ob- solete. According to regulations, Circular 1151, January 8, 1929, issued by the Secretary of the Interior and the General Land Office (see 43 CFR 131.1–131.2) ‘‘warrants for bounty lands were and are issued by the Commis- sioner of Pensions (Administrator of Veterans’ Affairs) for services in wars or battles prior to March 3, 1855 only.’’ Further, it is stated that ‘‘Warran
