588. Misbranding of mineral oil.    U. S. v. 141 Bottles of Russian Type Mineral
Oil.   Default decree of condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 4401.
Sample No. 50228-E.)
This product was mineral oil of domestic origin. It was labeled in con-
spicuous type "Russian Type Mineral Oil," and in much smaller type "Made
in U. S. A."
On April 19, 1941, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of
Virginia filed a libel against the above-named product at Richmond, Va., alleg-
ing that it had been shipped on or about March 24, 1941, by Adde, Inc., from
Baltimore, Md.; and charging that it was misbranded in that the conspicuous
statement on the label, "Russian Type Mineral Oil," was misleading as applied
to a domestic mineral oil.
On October 16, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
