507.  Misbranding  of  Udder-Balm.     U.  S.  v.  7%  Cases of Udder-Balm.     Default
decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 3683.    Sample No.
55386-E.)
On January 23, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western District of
Washington filed a libel against the above-named product at Seattle, Wash.,
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about
June 15, 1939, by Cash Davis Laboratories from St. Helens, Oreg.; and charging
that it was misbranded.
Analysis of a sample of the article showed that it consisted essentially of free
iodine, combined iodine, petrolatum, and a fatty acid.
The article was alleged to be misbranded in that representations in the labeling
that it would be efficacious for the treatment of mastitis and cowpox were false
and misleading since it would not be efficacious for such purposes.
On June 17, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation was
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
