The ld. lower authority has exhaustively dealt with the pleas of the appellants and also the scope of the Competing tariff entries and the Chapter notes under Chapter 39 and has held that tariff heading 39.25 can come in for consideration only if it could be shown that the goods do not fall under any other heading of the tariff and in the case since by virtue of Chapter note 10 as above the goods fall under tariff heading 3921 the tariff entry 39.25 cannot b .....
