21686.   Adulteration of tullibees.     V.  S.  v.  4 Boxes  of  Tullibees.     Default 
decree   of   condemnation,   forfeiture,   and   destruction.      (F.   &   D.
no. 31304.    Sample no. 45975-A.)
This case involved a shipment of tullibees that were infested with parasitic 
worms.
On September 26, 1933, the United States attorney for the Northern District 
of Illinois, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of four boxes of 
tullibees at Chicago, III., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate 
commerce on or about September 19, 1933, by B. Arneson, from Wiarroad, Minn., 
and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
It was alleged in the libel that the article was adulterated in that it consisted 
in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid animal substance. Adulteration was 
alleged for the further reason that the article consisted of portions of animals 
unfit for food.
On November 13, 1933, no claimant having appeared for the property, judg- 
ment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the 
court that the product be destroyed by the United States marshal.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
