Meichtry on the invoices accompanying the entry covered by the protest enumerated in the attached Schedule, assessed with duty at 19% ad valorem under Item 646.12 of the Tariff Schedules of the United States, described on the invoices as “2%" long eyebolts Vi6" bolt” and claimed properly dutiable at only .50 per lb. under Item 646.54 of said Schedules consists of bolts of iron or steel, not assembled.
