United States Customs Court·Decided July 15, 1943·No. No. 48560·Published

Opinion

Opinion by

Cline, J.

The record showed that the importation consisted of prepared peas in tins, the product of Belgium, and that at the time of importation the immediate containers, the tins, were marked “Belgique.” The importer was required to mark them with the words “Product of Belgium” before they were released. Following Vandegrift v. United States (13 Ct. Cust. Appls. 328, T. D. 41235) the court found that the merchandise was not legally marked. The protest was therefore overruled.
