11 Cust. Ct. 315
Protest 985341-G of W. X. Huber Co.

Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Tilson, J.

At the trial a sample of the merchandise was admitted as exhibit 1, and counsel for plaintiff conceded that the so-called hem or edge was done by hand, and stated, “There is no question of machine work involved here at all.” Such evidence as was presented was found not sufficient to establish that the handkerchiefs are not, in fact, made with hand-rolled or hand-made hems. The protest was therefore overruled.
