the kind, classification, or grade of the naval stores covered thereby.

$160.90 Prohibited use of word "turpentine" or derivatives thereof. It shall be deemed unlawful to use in commerce the word "turpentine" or a compound, derivative or imitation thereof, or any word or combination of words which are a part of a United States Standard for any kind of spirits of turpentine, to describe in any manner a mixture of spirits of turpentine with any other oil or solvent.

The words "pine" or "pine tree", when used to designate the source of spirits of turpentine, shall be deemed to mean a living, growing plant of the genus Pinus, family Pinaceae, unless the words "wood of" are used in connection therewith.

§ 160.97 Spirits of turpentine for medicinal use. Spirits of turpentine so packed, described, labeled, or sold as to indicate that it is offered as a medicament shall nevertheless be subject to the requirements of the Naval Stores Act and of the regulations in this part, as well as any requirements under any other statute.

PROCEEDINGS IN CASE OF VIOLATION
