TITLE 18—CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
§ 2312
The definitions of ‘‘interstate or foreign commerce’’,
contained in said section 408 and in sections 414(a) and
419a(b) of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., are incorporated in
section 10 of this title.
Other provisions of section 408 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940
ed., are incorporated in sections 2312 and 2313 of this
title.
In the definition of ‘‘motor vehicle’’, words ‘‘designed
for running on land but not on rails’’ were substituted
for ‘‘not designed for running on rails’’ so as to conform
with the ruling in the case of McBoyle v. U.S. (1931, 51
S. Ct. 340, 283, U. S. 25, 75 L. Ed. 816), in which the Su-
preme Court held that ‘‘vehicle’’ is limited to vehicles
running on land and that motor vehicle does not in-
clude an airplane.
In the paragraph defining ‘‘value’’ which came from
said section 417 of title 18, U.S.C., 1940 ed., words ‘‘In
the event that a defendant is charged in the same in-
dictment with two or more violations of sections
413–419 of this title, then’’ were omitted and the same
meaning was preserved by the substitution of the words
‘‘a single’’ for the word ‘‘such.’’
Minor changes were made in phraseology.
