5020. Misbranding: of " Win. Radams Microbe Killer." U. S. * * * v. 8?
Cases of " Win. Radams Microbe Killer." Defanlt decree of con??
demnation, forfeiture, and destruction. (F. & D. No. 6737. I. S. No.?
3 7551-k.    S. No. W-54.)
On July 15, 1915, the United States attorney for the Northern District of?
California, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the?
District Court of the United States for said district a libel for the seizure and?
condemnation of 8 cases, each containing 6 bottles, of " Wm. Radams Microbe?
Killer," remaining unsold in the original unbroken packages at San Francisco,?
Cal., alleging that the article had been delivered for shipment, on or about?
July 12, 1915, by Wm. Radams Chemical Co., Berkeley, Cal., and was in course?
of transportation from the State of California into the Territory of Hawaii,?
and charging misbranding in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, as amended.
It was alleged in substance in the libel that the article was misbranded for?
the reason that statements on its label falsely and fraudulently represented it?
as the great digestive blood purifier and tonic; and as a sane, safe, sure remedy?
for blood and chronic diseases; and, when drunk in glassful doses, as a de??
stroyer of the microbes without injury to the system, thereby preventing and?
eradicating disease, whereas, in truth and in fact, it was not.
On August 11, 1915, no claimant having appeared for the property, judgment?
of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court?
that the product should be destroyed by the United States marshal.
