ADMINISTRATIVE FEATURES
General Provisions Governing the
Levying of the New Rates.

WASHINGTON-The admipistra-
tive features of the bill are very
comprehensive. In their preparation
the Ways and Means Committee and
the Finance Committee studied the
reports of two Government commits
sions, and another report from the
General Board of Customs Apprais-
ers.
Under the new legal regulations
all merchandise imported into the
United States is held to be the>prop-
erty of the person to whom it is con-
signed or who holds the bill of lad
ing.
Invoices shall be made out in the
currency of the country where the
merchandise is made or purchased,
or agreed to be purchased, and shall
contain a description of the merchan-
disc. 1t is required that statement
shall be made in the invoice of the
purchase price agreed upon, and that
transactions that are actual pur-
chases and sales shall be entered as
such. Invoices shall have entered
thereon a statement signed by the
purchaser or owner setting forth that
the invoice is correct. If it is a bill
Of sale the price agreed upon shall
be stated When obtaineSPin any
other manner than by purchase the
wholesale price in the markets of the
country of export shall be stated.
This paragraph follows, in large
measure, provision of Section 8 OF
the Payne law, except for the Inser-
ton Of the words, "or when pur-
chases are made in several places IN
the Consular district, where the mer.--
chandise is assembled for Shipment,

in this section. It provides Vat
when merchandise arrives in the
United States and remains the prop
erty of the shipper, or consignoT,. the
acceptance of a fraudulent or false
invoice thereof by the consignee or
his agent or the existence of any
other facts constituting an attempted
fraud shall be deemed an attempt
to enter such merchandise, notwth-
standing no actual entry has been
made or offered.
Subsection Of Section 2S of the
PAYNE law is re-enacted. 1t requires
all imports to be accompanied by an
invoice under oath. The invoice must
state the cost of the merchandise or
the market value.
Whenever merchandise is import
ed into the United States declara-
ton shall be filed with the Collector
of the Port.
Criminal and civil liability for max
ing false statements in regard to an
invoice are separated in the admins
trative sections of the new Tariff
act. This is a change from the Payne
law.
The new law changes the provision
of the Payne law that the invoice
shall be sworn to before notary
public designated by the Secretary OF
the Treasury. Hereafter the invoice
may be sworn to before any notary
public. Should the notary public be
guilty of attesting statement with
out the personal appearance Of the
importer, the Treasury Department,
according to the trainers OF the law,
could go before the State Official ap-
pointing the notary and have his GER
ti6cate revoked.
