Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Cline, J.

The cases in which gambier from Singapore was packed were marked “Malayan Peninsular.” The Malayan Peninsula contains three separate countries. As the statute provides that imported merchandise shall be marked to indicate the “country of origin” it was held that the merchandise in this case was not sufficiently marked and the protest was overruled. Abstract 31820 followed.
