of Rowles Red Pepper Rub. Decree of condemnation. Product ordered
released under bond to be relabeled. (F. D. C. No. 11826. Sample No.
60705-F.)
On February 17, 1944, the United States attorney for the Northern District of
California filed a libel against 85?2 dozen packages of Howies Red Pepper Rub
at San Francisco, Calif., alleging that the article had been shipped by the Anacin
Manufacturing Co. on or about March 30, 1943, from Knoxville, Tenn.; and
charging that it was misbranded.
Examination disclosed that the article was short-weight.
It was alleged to be misbranded (1) in that the statement in the labeling,
"Contents l?.Oz.," was false and misleading; and (2) in that the label failed
to bear an accurate statement of the quantity of the contents.
On March 31, 1944, the Lamed Corporation having appeared as claimant,
judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered released
under bond to be relabeled under the supervision of the Food and Drug Adminis-
tration.
