United States Customs Court November 7, 1969, C.D. 3915; Protest 67/77548-5928 (Hammond Lead Products, Inc. v. United States)

MALETZ, Judge:

The single question in this case— which comes before the court on an American manufacturer’s protest — is whether the Mexican Government, directly or indirectly, bestows a bounty or grant, within the meaning of section 303 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. § 1303), upon the manufacture, production or exportation of a lead oxide known as litharge.
