Cans and boxes from tin-plates, same as duty paid. Quantity to be ascertained as follows: For rectangular five-gallon cans allow 258 pounds for each hundred cans (made from a combination of plates 14x20 inches with plates 10x20 inches), and for each hundred cans made from a combination of plates 14x194 inches with plates 10x20 inches, allow 252 pounds. For cans and boxes of other capacities add to the weight of the blanks the following percentages: On rectangular blanks, three per cent.; on body pieces of frustom-shaped cans, seven per cent.; and on circular, elliptical, and oval blanks, fifteen per cent. When no blanks are furnished, the quantity of tin may be determined by adding five per cent. to the surface of finished cans to cover seams and wastage. (S.7702.) Cans and other articles manufactured from imported tin and terne plates ascertainment of drawback on. When articles entitled to drawback on exportation, made wholly from imported tin or terne plates, and on which no allowance for wastage is to be made, are exported in such condition that their weight may be determined by a United States weigher at the time of exportation, such weight shall be accepted as the basis for the liquidation of the drawback entry. When five-gallon tin cans are made from a combination of two plates, each 14x194 inches, with one plate 10x20 inches, all standard I. C. tin plates, the quantity of plate used in their manufacture may be determined by allowing 21⁄2 pounds for each can exported; provided that, should the plates used be shown by the records of importation to weigh less than 21⁄2 pounds, the rate here fixed shall be correspondingly reduced. The superficial quantity of tin or terne plates used in the manufacture of boxes or cans other than the five-gallon can above noted, or of other articles made from such plates, may be determined by measurement of the blanks or parts of which the box, can or article is composed, and by the (NOTE.-Accuracy and precision in customs proceedings are so essential to the interests of importers that the services of a competent broker are usually worth vastly more than the small cost of such services.) addition to surface quantity of the respective parts, to cover wastage in manufacture, of the following percentages: For rectangular blanks... 3 per cent. For body pieces of frustum-shaped cans......... 7 per cent. For circular and oval blanks.. .15 per cent. The number of square inches of plate used being so found, the weight thereof may be determined by dividing such number of square inches by the number of square inches of plate in a box of the size identified by the manufacturer, and multiplying the weight per box on which duty was paid on importation by the number of boxes so found. In case blanks for cans, boxes, or other manufactures of tin or terne plate are in such form that the superficial quantity of plate appearing therein cannot be readily determined by measurement, such superficial quantity may be found by weighing a measurable section cut from such blank and comparing its weight with the weight of the blank. When a sample of the scrap resulting from the cutting of such blank is furnished with the sample blanks required for the use of the Collector, the amount of plate used in the manufacture of the articles or parts in which such blanks appear may be determined by adding to the blanks, to cover wastage in manufacture, a quantity of plate equal to that part of the scrap resulting from cutting such blanks, which is rendered worthless for the ordinary uses of tin terne plate, provided that such allowance shall in no case exceed twentyfive per cent. of the weight of such blanks, except under special instructions from the Department. Where articles are made from uncut plates or from rectangular blanks cut from plates from which the rough edges have not been trimmed in process of manufacture, no allowance shall be made for wastage. In case samples of cans or boxes and blanks (when blanks do not so appear in the finished articles that they may be measured) are not furnished by the exporter, the quantity of the material used may be determined by adding five per cent. to the surface measurement of the finished (NOTE.-Accuracy and precision in customs proceedings are so essential to the interests of importers that the services of a competent broker are usually worth vastly more than the small cost of such services.) article, to cover seams and wastage in manufacture.
