Statue Admitted Duty Free For Confederate Monument
Board No 3 of the United States General Appraisers ruled that a marble statue of a Confederate soldier bound for Carrollton Mississippi may enter free of duty. It had been taxed at 15 percent ad valorem under a reciprocity with Italy. Judge Waite said the statue should be free if a proper bond is filed as art for a public monument or municipal gift. The Treasury Department waived technical customs rules, sustaining the protest and reversing the collector’s decision.
