Unpublished appendix to report on the Uniform Commercial Code, 1954.

The Special Commission to Investigate and Study the Uniform Commercial Code, established in 1953, submitted a report to the General Court in Jan. 1954, consisting of draft legislation (1953 H 2400) eventually adopted as St 1957, c 765 (MGLA c106). Included with the report was this appendix, consisting of official comments of the commission that were in fact those of the code's sponsoring organizations, the American Law Institute and the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws. Since the comments were eventually to be included in the annotated version of Massachusetts General Laws, this copy of the appendix, consisting of edited printed copy, was filed with the clerk of the House of Representatives on Jan. 27, 1954 but not reprinted as part of the commission report.
