The provisos in paragraphs (39) and (46) of former sec-
tion 2211(c) are carried into section 5315. The remain-
ders of paragraphs (39) and (46) are omitted but not re-
pealed, see table III. The parts of paragraphs (39) and
(46) that are omitted but not repealed provide that the
positions of Director of Selective Service and Associate
Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall be
in Level III so long as the positions are held by the in-
cumbents of the positions on August 14, 1964. The omis-
sion of these provisions from title 5, without repealing
the corresponding provisions of the source statute, in
effect, leaves existing statute unchanged insofar as it
relates to the present incumbents of the positions of
Director of Selective Service and Associate Director of
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Standard changes are made to conform with the defi-
nitions applicable and the style of this title as outlined
in the preface to the report.

The deletion of paragraph (41) of 5 U.S.C. 5314 reflects
the abolition of the position of ‘‘Deputy Administrator

of September 9, 1965, Public Law 89–174, sections 5(a),
9(c), 79 Stat. 669, 671.
In paragraph (49), the words ‘‘In lieu of receiving
compensation at the rate prescribed by section 785(c) of
this title’’ are omitted since the provisions of 20 U.S.C.
785(c) relating to compensation are repealed by this
bill; also see table II. The wording further reflects the
first sentence of 20 U.S.C. 954(d), and conforms to 5
U.S.C. 5314 which applies to positions rather than indi-
viduals.
