Protest 971785-G of Weisenfeld
2 Cust. Ct. 765
Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
The evidence showed that the sticks in question are cut to a length to suit the individual who uses them. They are not malaeca but nelgehri, which is called bamboo in this country. Prom an examination of the sample the court was unable to hold that it is in the natural state or in the rough. The evidence was held not sufficient to overcome the presumption of correctness of the collector’s classification. The protest was therefore overruled.
