§ 633. Service of notice or process during time of war. Whenever,
pursuant to the provisions of this article, any communication, notice or
other paper or process is required to be given or served by the
superintendent upon any person and the giving or service thereof is in
any manner prohibited by the provisions of the act of congress, known as
the "Trading with the Enemy Act," or any amendment thereof, or the
rules, regulations or licenses issued pursuant thereto, or any other
law, rule, regulation or license pursuant to law prohibiting or
regulating the same, such communication, notice or other paper or
process shall be deemed to have been duly given or served on such person
if given or served on his or her behalf, in the manner provided in the
pertinent provisions of this article, on the noncitizen property
custodian or on such other officer as may have been appointed or
designated by the president of the United States of America to take
possession of the property of noncitizen enemies. This section shall
apply whether or not (1) such noncitizen property custodian or other
officer shall actually have taken possession of any property of such
person, or (2) the president, or an officer duly designated by him or
her for the purpose, has the power to authorize or license the giving or
service of any such communication, notice or other paper or process, and
nothing herein shall require the superintendent to apply to the
president or such officer for such authority or license, provided,
however, that in any case where it appears that at the time such
communication, notice or other paper or process is required to be given
or served, the president or such officer has actually authorized or
licensed the giving or service of same in the manner provided in the
pertinent provisions of this article, then this section shall not apply
and the superintendent shall be required to give or serve such
communication, notice or other paper or process on such person in
accordance with such authorization or license.
