SHOES IS SHOES
A decision has just been handed
down by the United States Customs
Court on the tariff status of famy
shoe heels.
“While these shoe heels are evi
dently designed to be worn on ap
parei or attached to the person, "i
their use on women’s shoes, nnd
while they are composed of metai
and valued at above 20 cents p.n
doyen pieces, it is very plain to os'
that they are not ‘such as’ nor ‘like
any of the articles enumerated in
the provisions quoted, nor are they
li’*e any of the parts of sueli a
tides.’'
They are parts of shoes, and while
ornamental in being in chief valin
of silver set with rhinestones, are
i.ot at all like the ornamental
buckles usually placed on such
sbo< s or any other shoe ornament
These shoe heels are entirely util;
tarian; they have but one purpose
being attached to the shoe. They
n-av be ornamental. The ordinary
si:' e in this progressive age is of
very little value without a heel.
Ornament it as you may, it is still
a h^el.
“We can get along without a cun
button or cigar holder, hut wha
would you think of a young woman
of fashion perambulating on Fifth
Avenue on Faster Sunday with t':
latest gown of usual (or unusual >
length, wearing an alligator shoj
wi nout any heel? The mere the
of such a condition answers ti.
classification of Ibis heel.
