It was stipulated that the cheese in question is similar to the Provolone cheese the subject of Scaramelli v. United States (9 Cust. Ct. 270, C. D. 706). In accordance therewith it was held to be properly dutiable upon the basis of the net weight of the cheese as returned by the United States weigher, not including the weight of the strings, less 2% percent for inedible coverings. Protest sustained to this extent. Abstracts 40880 and 41794 cited.
