§ 737.36 - Care of other commodities.
-
If, at any time, a warehouseman shall handle tobacco other than for storage, or shall handle or store any other commodity, he shall so protect the same, and otherwise exercise such care with respect to it, as not to endanger the tobacco in his custody as a warehouseman or impair his ability to meet his obligations and perform his duties under the act and the regulations in this part. If the warehouseman shall store commodities other than those for which he is licensed, a nonlicensed receipt shall be issued, which shall contain in its terms a provision that such commodities are accepted for storage only until such time as the space which they may occupy may be needed for products for the storage of which the warehouseman is licensed. Under no circumstances shall any commodities for the storage of which the warehouseman is not licensed be stored if the storage of such commodities might adversely affect the commercial value of, or impair the insurance on, tobacco covered by licensed receipts.
