Gabriel v. United States

This article is a white, dry material, for use in painting, containing zinc, but not containing lead. Para- , graph 60 of the tariff act of 1890 provides for a duty on “white paint containing zinc, but not containing lead; dry,” and “ground in oil.” This seems to be the article of that paragraph, dry, which in common speech is called “paint,” although not usable as such until it is mixed with oil. Decision affirmed.
