| | 3½ cents per | of the Tariff Act of | | pound.[1] | 1930. ------------------+----------+-----------------+------------------------ [1] Ad valorem based on American selling price or United States value. _Import statistics._—Imports of the separated and mixed cresols are combined in official statistics. Table 75 shows imports of the cresols “90 percent pure or more.” There have been no recorded imports of less pure grades. Tables 76, 77, and 78 show, by principal sources, imports of metacresol, orthocresol, and paracresol, as obtained from invoice analyses by the United States Tariff Commission. The sum of the three tabulations does not equal the total shown for all cresols in table 75. The difference in 1934 of 38,744 pounds valued at $12,906 is accounted for by mixed cresols. Undoubtedly the differences in other years may be similarly accounted for.
