In clause (1), the word "amend" is substituted for "alter" for consistency in the revised title. The words "not inconsistent with the Constitution and laws of the United States or of any State" are omitted as unnecessary. Clause (6) is substituted for "acquire, by purchase, devise, bequest, gift, or otherwise, and hold, encumber, convey, or otherwise dispose of such real and personal property as may be necessary or appropriate for its corporate purposes" for consistency in the revised title and to eliminate unnecessary words. |
