60309 46 App.:124. R.S. §2792; May 28, 1908, ch. 212, §1, 35 Stat. 424.

The words “at least 3 trips per week” are substituted for “triweekly or oftener” for clarity. The words “and light money” are added for clarity and consistency. See 19 C.F.R. §4.21 (2003). The words “while such service triweekly or oftener is maintained” are omitted as unnecessary.
