No. 347. Disclosure of origin of imported shoes. In response to a request for an advisory opinion, the Commission ruled that it would be necessary for the requesting party to make a clear and conspicuous disclosure of the foreign country of origin of its imported shoes.
Under the factual situation present in the ruling, it was assumed that the shoes were entirely of foreign manufacture and after importation they were to be sold to the general public. (File No. 693 7108, released May 8, 1969.)
