Before the First Division,
    November 10, 1939
    No. 42647.
    Petition 5876-R of Camlin Corset Co., Inc. (New York).
   Opinion by

Brown, J.

It appeared that the importer made every reasonable effort to ascertain the actual prices at which like merchandise was sold in France but was unable to get any information due to a dispute which was being prosecuted in the French courts. There was nothing in the record to indicate any intention on the part of the importer to deceive the customs officials or to defraud the revenue. The petition was therefore granted.
