   Oliver, Chief Judge:

This matter is before me on remand from classification proceedings decided by the first division of this court in S. E. Laszlo v. United States, 39 Cust. Ct. 390, Abstract 61109, and it has been submitted for decision on a written stipulation, reading as follows:

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, subject to the approval of the Court, as follows:

3. That there was no higher foreign value.
4. That the instant ease may be submitted on the foregoing stipulation.

On tbe agreed facts, I find export value, as that value is defined in section 402 (d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, to be the proper basis for appraisement of the instruments and cases in question, and I hold such statutory value for this merchandise to be as hereinabove set forth in the stipulation of submission. Judgment will be rendered accordingly.
