In United States v. Universal C. I. T. Credit Corp., 344 U.S. 218, 221-222 (1952), the U.S. Supreme Court emphasized that "when choice has to be made between two readings of what conduct Congress has made a crime, it is appropriate, before we choose the harsher alternative, to require that Congress should have spoken in language that is clear and definite."
