condemnation and destruction.     (F. D., C. No.  17295.    Sample No. 4335-H.)
LIBEL FILED :    August 22,1945, Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
ALLEGED SHIPMENT: On or about July 13, 1945, by the Aid Laboratories, from 
Camden, N. J.
PRODUCT:   1,080 jars of Pom-Aid at Philadelphia, Pa.
Analysis showed that the product contained not more than a trace, if any, of 
olive oil, and that it was short volume.
LABEL IN PART: "Pom-Aid Contains 3% Olive Oil for the hair * * * Con- 
tents 2 Ozs."
NATURE OF CHANGE : Misbranding, Section 602 (a), the label statement, "Contains 
3% Olive Oil," was false and misleading as applied to an article which contained 
not more than a trace, if any, of olive oil; and, Section 602 (lb) (2), the product 
failed to bear a label containing an accurate statement of the quantity of the 
contents.
DISPOSITION : September 12, 1945. No claimant having appeared, judgment 
of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
