RE:  The tariff classification of textile ribbon garland from
     Taiwan.

Dear Ms. Pearson:

     In your letter dated April 15, 1996 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.

     Four samples of textile ribbon garland accompanied your
request for a ruling.  Style 08890709429 is a 21 foot by 2 inch
wide woven ribbon garland composed of 45% polyester and 55%
metallic yarn with silver metallic yarn overlock stitching along
all four edges. It is manufactured with a sewn in metal wire
along the lengthwise edges.  The garland features overlock
stitching which forms a hem on all four edges.   Style
08890707382 is a 21 foot by 2 inch wide woven ribbon garland
composed of 45% polyester and 55% metallic yarn.  It is
manufactured with a sewn in metal wire along the lengthwise
edges.  This garland features overlock stitching which forms a
hem on all four edges.  Style 08890707394 is a 21 foot by 2 inch
wide woven ribbon garland composed of 45% polyester and 55%
metallic yarn with gold metallic yarn overlock stitching along
all four edges. It is manufactured with a sewn in metal wire
along the lengthwise edges.  The garland features overlock
stitching which forms a hem on all four edges.  The last sample,
identified as style 08890707377, is a 18 foot by 2 inch wide
flocked woven ribbon garland with overlock stitching along all
four edges.  It is composed of 70% polyester and 30% nylon.  The
