The section restates the source provisions for clarity and for consistency with the rest of chapter 105 of the revised title. The words "interstate or foreign commerce" are omitted as unnecessary in view of section 10521 of the revised title that gives the Interstate Commerce Commission jurisdiction only in the instances of commerce enumerated in section 10521.
