Head Matter:
No. 39430.
Protests 789530-G/10476, etc., of Seaboard Refining Co. (New Orleans).

Opinion:
Opinion by
Keefe, J.
It was established that the drums are secondhand, composed of light weight materials, and were badly dented and in poor condition when received at the company's plant. After emptying they were sold as junk to secondhand dealers. It was not established that the drums could not be used to compete commercially with drums of American manufacture. The protests were therefore overruled.
