MOODY MAKES MORE I. .
4 RULINGS ON DRAWBACK

Washington, March 4, 2.--Attorney
Moody, in an opinion received by the
secretary of the treasury, holds in effect
that the drawback on the export of flour
made from imported wheat should be
computed according to the relative val
|ues of -four and other products at the
time and place of manufacture. II also
lis held that where only a part Of the
products are made. from imported wheat
and exported it is proper to determine
the proportionate value Of the same for
drawback purposes without allowing
anything for the increased price such
part would bring in the domestic mar
1kets because Of the privilege Of exporta-
itior with the right of drawback.
II Both questions covered by. this de-
scisiori arose in the preparation of regu-
slations allowing the drawback on ex-
ported -four and its by-products made
an whole or lin part from imported wheat.
There was some questions in the de-
spartrnent as TO whether the value of the
flour and its by-products made from
wheat would be entitled on ex-
sportatiofl to drawback at the rate of
rs cents a busllel, less per cent on the
amount of wheat used and hence, would
command higher price in the market
than the products Of domestic wheat.
The question was raised whether this
increased value should be taken into ac1
count i'll fixing the relative amount of
drawback to be allowed or whether the
value Of products for domestic Use
