UNITED STATES DESIGN CODE
THE FLAG
§1. Flag; stripes and stars on
The flag of the United States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes,
alternate red and white; and the union of the flag shall be forty-eight
stars, white in a blue field.
§ 2. Same; additional stars
On the admission of a new State into the Union one star shall be added to
the union of the flag; and such addition shall take effect on the fourth
day of July then next succeeding such admission.
§ 3. Use of flag for advertising purposes; mutilation of flag
Any person who, within the District of Columbia, in any manner, for
exhibition or display, shall place or cause to be placed any word, figure,
mark, picture, design, drawing, or any advertisement of any nature upon
any flag, standard, colors, or ensign of the United States of America; or
shall expose or cause to be exposed to public view any such flag,
standard, colors, or ensign upon which shall have been printed, painted,
or otherwise placed, or to which shall be attached, appended, affixed, or
annexed any word, figure, mark, picture, design, or drawing, or any
advertisement of any nature; or who, within the District of Columbia,
shall manufacture, sell, expose for sale, or to public view, or give away
or have in possession for sale, or to be given away or for use for any
purpose, any article or substance being an article of merchandise, or a
receptacle for merchandise or article or thing for carrying or
transporting merchandise, upon which shall have been printed, painted,
attached, or otherwise placed a representation of any such flag, standard,
colors, or ensign, to advertise, call attention to, decorate, mark, or
distinguish the article or substance on which so placed shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $100
or by imprisonment for not more than thirty days, or both, in the
discretion of the court. The words 'flag, standard, colors, or ensign', as
used herein, shall include any flag, standard, colors, ensign, or any
picture or representation of either, or of any part or parts of either,
made of any substance or represented on any substance, of any size
evidently purporting to be either of said flag, standard, colors, or
ensign of the United States of America or a picture or a representation of
either, upon which shall be shown the colors, the stars and the stripes,
in any number of either thereof, or of any part or parts of either, by
which the average person seeing the same without deliberation may believe
the same to represent the flag, colors, standard, or ensign of the United
States of America.
