§ 737.72 - Type, grade, and form; statement.

Whenever the type, grade, or form of tobacco is stated for the purposes of the act and the regulations in this part, it shall be based upon a careful and thorough examination of the package of tobacco or an official sample thereof. In case the tobacco in one part of a package or sample is inferior to that in other parts of the package or sample, the grade assigned to the tobacco shall be an average, considering the proportion that each part bears to the whole, and in case of a question as to which grade of two or more grades should be assigned to the tobacco, the lowest grade in question shall be assigned.
