Opinion:
Tilson, Judge:
This appeal has been submitted for decision upon a stipulation to the effect that the issue herein and in United States v. Nippon Dry Goods Co., Reap. Dec. 5006, is the same and that the appraised value of certain items, less any amount added by the importer by reason of the so-called Japanese consumption tax, represents the export value of said items and that there was no higher foreign value.
On the agreed facts I find and hold the proper dutiable export value of the items marked A and checked JWT or WG on the invoices to be the appraised value less any amount added by the importer by reason of the so-called Japanese consumption tax. Judgment will be rendered accordingly.
