tries under their own power are not
merchandise. but vessels and should

house, according to a ruling by Dudley
Field Malone, collector OF the port. an

laws make no provision for this kind
of a customs entry it is understood Mr.
Malone will consult with Secretary of
the Treasury McAdoo concerning the
advisability of amending the customs
laws SO as to make special provision TO:
the entry of aeroplanes and for special
inspectors to examine them when they
arrive by the aerial route.

strom, who recently made the flight
from Toronto, Ont, to New York, at

arrival of his aeroplane. The collector
at first was puzzled about how to re-
cord the entry, but eventually decided
that the aeroplane should be entered
as a vessel 1t was not necessary for
Carlstrom to pay duty on the machine,
as it is of American manufacture.
