Georgia Peanut Co. and W. J. Byrnes & Co. of N. Y., Inc. v. United States,
[MAJORITY — Johnson, J.]
Opinion by
Johnson, J.
It was stipulated that the facts and issues herein are similar in all material respects to those involved in United States v. Browne Vintners Co., Inc. (34 C. C. P. A. 112, C. A. D. 351) and that the quantities reported by the inspector as manifested, not found, were not in fact received by the importer. In accordance with stipulation of counsel and following the decision cited it was held that duty is not assessable upon the quantities of merchandise, which were reported by the inspector as manifested, not found. The protest was sustained to this extent.
