HORTICULTURAL
BOARD RULES ON
COMMODITIES
STATEMENT IN CONNECTION
WITH FEDERAL RULING IS
SUED BY L. r. WARNER, LOCAL
REPRESENTATIVE

Key West fruit and vegetable i'm
porters and brokers will be interest
ed in the following ruling by the
Federal Horticultural Board in con-
nection with entries of commodities
under Quarantine Sc, according to a
statement issued by L. r. Warner,
collaboration and Inspector in charge,
Federal Horticultural Board:
In the event that a commodity ar
rives whose importation is controlled
by Quarantine Sc, if the importer
concerned has not secured permit,
The entry may be passed on presenta-
tion by the importer of an applica-
tion for permit to import the COM
modify in question, provided that a
permit is already on file at that
port authorizing the importation of
the particular commodity from the
country in question.
The application is to be transmit
ted to the board promptly by the
inspector in charge so that the cor
responding permit or amendment may
be issued. 1t is hoped that this
procedure will eliminate much delay
and expense in telephoning and
telegraphing.
This means that if any importer
at Key West holds a permit for i'm
porting commodity that any other
person may import the same COM
modify by making application to the
local officer.
