What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The list of the Act's own five numbered sections, and the three divisions with the titles listed under each.

The page numbers a printed table of contents would carry, because the Government Publishing Office's text of the enrolled law does not print them here.

A table of contents lists what follows and requires nothing of anyone. The titles it lists are the titles inside the divisions, and those divisions are carried by section 5, so the money and the rules they name are recorded there rather than here.
