On the 11th floor of an office building In downtown New York, Uncle Sam sponsors an endless quiz program Involving sums greater than even radios open handed quizmasters give out. There you will find judicial to such brainbusters as: Is rhubarb a vegetable or a fruit? When does an Infant become a child? Is whale meat fish, or Is It meat? Is a slide fastener a machine? What Is a doll? When Is a rug not a rug? These questions are not trivial. They and other similar ones actually have been presented to the nine Judges of the United States customs court. This unique court handles cases dealing with commercial Imports from all countries in the world. In some Instances the questions have involved millions of dollars in tariff duties and have set important precedents on how the twisting, confused United States tariff laws should be applied. When It was decided that an infant becomes a child at 2 years, the entire clothing industry was affected, as well as the price parents pay for their offsprings clothing. Congress had provided for one rate of duty on childrens clothing and a different rate on infants wear. The court is called up on to decide what was In the minds of the congressmen who write the nations tariff laws. Often Its tasks are routine and technical. But just as often it runs across a real "Almost every case is a challenge says the courts chief Webster J. Oliver. . judge, Take the case of the slide fasteners, decided early last year. The importer called them machines. Government agents called them articles made of metal. The importer put a college professor of mechanical engineering on the stand to testify that the slides were like childrens tricycles. In deciding the case, the court agreed that fasteners and tricycles were alike, since human beings had to apply the power to make them work. But the court said neither was a machine, at least as far as the tariff was concerned. The original rate of duty was upheld. Many of the courts unusual decisions come in classifying imports for which congress has made no specific provision. The tariff laws say than any article not specifically enumerated, but similar to an enumerated article, should be assessed for duty at the latters rate. an-swe- skull-cracke- rs ACROSS I. Begone! 5.
