child had submitted to him q series Of
questions as to what classes OF coverings,
boxes, sacks, etc., used for the importa.
ton OF goods, are subject to duty and what
classes exempt. The Acting Attorney.
General decides no coverings used in bona
fde transportation Of goods are subject to
duty. When the use is shown to be for
the purpose Of evading duties or for other
purposes than legitimate transportation,
duty can be assessed at the rate Of 100 per
cent. The decision Is based upoR the idea
that recent legislation was meant to re-
duce the revenues by abolishing all duties
on coverings.
