IT IS STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between counsel for the plaintiffs and the Assistant Attorney General for the United States:
That the items marked “A”, and checked GHL JOB AFM (Comm. Spec’s Initials) by Commodity Specialist Geo. H. Littlejohn J. O’Brien A. F. Manzella (Comm. Spec’s Name) on the invoices covered by the protests enumerated on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof, and assessed with duty at 15 per centum ad valorem under the provisions of paragraph 353, Tariff Act of 1930, as modified by T.D. 51802, consist of earphones, which, in fact, are not suitable *343for controlling, distributing, modifying, producing, or rectifying electrical energy.
That said merchandise, in fact, consists of articles having as an essential feature an electrical element or device and are wholly or in chief value of metal.
That said earphones are not dedicated to use with radios.
It is claimed that the merchandise is dutiable at 13% per centum ad valorem under the provisions of paragraph 353 of said Act, which rate has been further reduced to 12½ per centum ad valorem by T.D. 55615 for entries made or withdrawn for consumption after July 1,1962.
That the protests enumerated on the schedule attached hereto and made a part hereof be deemed submitted on this stipulation, the protests being limited to the items marked with the letter “A”, as aforesaid, and abandoned as to all other items.
Accepting the foregoing stipulation of facts, we find and hold the items marked “A” and initialed on the invoices by the designated commodity specialists to be properly dutiable as articles having as an essential feature an electrical element or device, wholly or in chief value of metal, at the rate of 13% or 12½ per centum ad valorem under the provisions of paragraph 353, Tariff Act of 1930, as modified by T.D. 52739 or T.D. 55615, depending upon date of entry or withdrawal from the warehouse.
The protests having been abandoned as to all other merchandise, they are hereby dismissed.
To the extent indicated the specified claim in these protests is sustained; in all other respects and as to all other merchandise all the claims are overruled.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.
