4. That said protests were filed on all of the entries enumerated in said Schedule A, under section 514 of the Tariff Act of 1930, within 60 days after the dates of liquidation thereof, and that said protests were pending for decision by this Court on October 7,1965, the date of enactment and/or on December 7,1965, the effective date of the Tariff Schedules Technical Amendments Act of 1965, Public Law 89-241, 89 th Congress.

Accepting the stipulation, we find that plaintiffs have complied with both section 514 of the Tariff Act of 1930 and section 2(b) of the Tariff Schedules Technical Amendments Act of 1965, Public Law 89-241, T.D. 56511, and that said merchandise is dutiable at the rate of 25 cents per pound and 19 per centum ad valorem, pursuant to the provisions of item 385.61 of the Tariff Schedules of the United States, as amended by section 21 of said Tariff Schedules Technical Amendments Act, for labels of man-made fibers. The claim of the plaintiffs to that effect is sustained. The protests insofar as they relate to all other merchandise, having been abandoned, are dismissed.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.
