of Kix Kinks Hair Straiter. Default decrees of condemnation and destruc- 
tion.     (F. D. C. Nos. 7903, 7904.    Sample Nos. 77883-E, 77884-E.)
This product contained sodium hydroxide.
On July 14, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of New Jersey 
filed libels against 8 packages of Kix Kinks Hair Straiter at Newark, N. J., 
alleging that the article had been shipped on or about June 19 and November 13, 
1941, and April 26, 1942, by Dorosy, Inc., from New York, N. Y.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it contained a poisonous or deleterious sub- 
stance, namely, sodium hydroxide which might have rendered it injurious to 
users under the conditions of use prescribed in the labeling or under such con- 
ditions of use as are customary or usual.
On September 10, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgments of con- 
demnation were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
