BAR GROUPING OF PROTESTS.
Consolidation of Number of Gus
toms Entries Prohibited.

To evade payment of protest fees COM
plainants will not be allowed to CONSOLE
date a number of customs entries in one
protest to the board of general apprais-
ers. Such protests will not be forwarded
by the collectors of customs unless pay
ment is made of 81 fee for each liquida-
ton protested against Further. the as
sistant attorney general in charge OF
customs cases has been requested to OBJ
iect to the validity of each sO-called pro-
test, when liquidation of more than one
entry is included in one paper or docu-
ment
This was the decision of Assistant Sec
retary Hamlin of the Treasury Depart
ment made public this morning. Ills
communication was sent directly 10 tne
collector of customs at st. Louis MO-,
who raised the question.
The St Louis collector. i'll communi-
cation to the Treasury Department, told
of a firm of customs brokers who in
tended to consolidate u number OF entries
in one protest to cvade payment of pro-
test fees Quoting the law, Assistant
Secretary Hamin gave his opinion that
so-calIed protests covering NUMBER OF
different entries and payments and rais-
ing 1tsft7arous questions relating to dlHer-
emf itr,3,ortations would not comply with
the requirements of the statute. The de-
cisiou of the collector. he held, against
which protest can be made. is liquidation
of ali entry: expression of dissatisfaction
with such liquidation constitutes pro-
test and the fee provided Is chargeable
upon each protest, even though the num-
Der Of protests be included in one paper
or document.
