Y. Washington, D. C. SIR: Reference is made to your letter of May 16, 1935 (IF:ESL), reporting on the question presented by a representative of an importer as to the marking to indicate the country of origin of washable leather to be manufactured into gloves. The question arose in connection with an importation of skins of washable leather. It is represented that the importers supply the skins to manufacturers to be made into gloves solely for the importers and request is made that the marking of the containers be considered sufficient to indicate the country of origin of the leather under section 304 of the Tariff Act of 1930. The appraiser states that it is his practice to require leather represented by the importation in question to be marked in conformity with section 304 of the tariff act. It is pointed out that under article 513 (a) (5) of the customs regulations as further construed by T. D. 45442, T. D. 45611-17, and T. D. 45691-3, etc., only crude materials in an uncovered condition are permitted entry without marking. As the appraiser reported that the merchandise is a finished leather in a condition ready to be manufactured into gloves, it has been your practice to require individual marking of the skins in accordance with T. D. 44671-31. The Bureau believes, however, that the merchandise which is to be manufactured into gloves for the importer falls within the principle of T. D. 47228 and that under the circumstances the marking of the containers of the merchandise should be considered sufficient to indicate the origin of their contents. You will be governed accordingly. A copy of this letter is being sent to the applicant for his information. TREASURY DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OF CUSTOMS, Washington, D. C., June 28, 1935. To Collectors of Customs and Others Concerned: The following abstracts of decisions of the Bureau of Customs are published for the information of collectors of customs and others concerned. (51-5.) JAMES H. MOYLE, Commissioner of Customs. |
