Opinion:
Opinion by
Ford, J.
The record established that certain items of the involved merchandise consist of woven silk fabrics, valued at more than $5.50 per pound, the same in all material respects as those passed upon in Walter Strassburger & Co., Inc., et al. v. United States (26 Cust. Ct. 210, C. D. 1326). Upon the established facts and following the cited authority, it was held that the merchandise imported or withdrawn from warehouse prior to January 1, 1948, is dutiable at 45 percent under paragraph 1205, as modified by T. D. 48316, and that which was imported or withdrawn from warehouse subsequent to said date is dutiable at 25 percent under said paragraph, as modified by T. D. 51802,
