19 U.S.C. § 1751 : US Code – Section 1751: Designation of fairs
This description of the Trade Fair Act of 1959 tracks the language of the U.S. Code, except that, sometimes, we use plain English and that we may refer to the “Act” (meaning Trade Fair Act of 1959) rather than to the “subchapter” or the “title” of the United States Code.
