United States Customs Court · Decided July 15, 1943 · Cline
11 Cust. Ct. 219
Protest 988249-G of Vandegrift

Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Cline, J.

The record showed that the bags containing the seed were marked “Tsehechoslowakai” and the collector required that the bags be marked with the word “Czechoslovakia” before they were released from customs custody. As the merchandise was marked with a foreign word, which is not a compliance with the statute, the merchandise was held not legally marked, and the protest was overruled.
