34 U.S.C. 1166.
Aug. 18, 1942, ch. 553, § 8,
56 Stat. 747.
34 U.S.C. 1161.
Aug. 18, 1942, ch. 553, § 3,
56 Stat. 746.
Subsection (a) reflects 28 U.S.C. 1333 by restating the
basic prize jurisdiction of that section over prizes
brought into the United States, and by providing that
the extension of prize jurisdiction conferred by 34
U.S.C. 1159 on the United States district courts is ex-
clusive of the courts of the States. 34 U.S.C. 1166 and
the second sentence of 34 U.S.C. 1164 are executed in the
single jurisdictional statement of this section and the
consolidation of the Act of August 18, 1942, ch. 553, 56
Stat. 746 (34 U.S.C. 1159–1166) with the earlier prize pro-
visions. The words ‘‘during war’’ in 34 U.S.C. 1159 are
omitted as covered in § 7651 of this title. In clause (1)
the words ‘‘or the Territories, Commonwealths, or pos-
sessions’’ are added, since ‘‘United States’’ in this title
is geographically limited to the 48 States and the Dis-
trict of Columbia, whereas the term here is intended to
include all places within the jurisdiction of the district
courts.
In clause (4) the words ‘‘taken or’’ preceding the
words ‘‘appropriated for the use of the United States’’
are omitted as surplusage and in order to avoid confu-
sion between the two meanings of the word ‘‘taken’’ in
prize law. In both the Revised Statutes and the 1942 Act
the phrase ‘‘taken or appropriated’’ means no more
than ‘‘appropriated’’ alone, whereas ‘‘taken’’, in the
phrase ‘‘taken as prize’’ means ‘‘captured’’.
Subsection (b) is included to make the statement of
jurisdiction complete. It is derived by implication
