18604. Misbranding of corn oil cake meal.    U. S. -v. 210 Bass of Corn Oil
Cake Meal.    Consent decree of condemnation.    Product released 
to be labeled.    (F. & D. No. 26754.    I. S. No. 23802.    S. No. 4715.)
Examination of the so-called corn oil cake meal from the shipment herein 
described having shown that the packages failed to bear a statement of the 
quantity of the contents, the matter was reported to the United States attorney 
for the District of Kansas by authority of the Secretary of Agriculture.
On or about April 30, 1931, the United States attorney filed in the District 
Court of the United States for the district aforesaid a libel praying seizure 
and condemnation of 210 bags of corn oil cake meal, remaining in the original 
unbroken packages at Topeka, Kans., alleging that the article had been shipped 
by the Corn Products Refining Co., New York, N. Y., from Kansas City, Mo., 
on or about February 19, 1931, and had been transported from the State, of 
Missouri into the State of Kansas, and charging misbranding in violation of 
the food and drugs act as amended.
It was alleged in the libel that the article was misbranded in that the bags 
bore no mark, brand, or label showing the net weight of the contents.
On May 18,1931, the Forbes Bros., Central Mills' Co., Topeka, Kans., claimant, 
having agreed to label the product to show the net weight as required by law, 
and having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation was 
entered and it was ordered by the court that the said product be released to 
be properly labeled, and that claimant pay costs.
