condemnation and destruction.    (F. & D. No. 43085.    Sample No. 37612-D.)
This product having been shipped in interstate commerce and remaining 
unsold and in the original packages, was at the time of examination found 
to be insect-infested.
On July 19, 1938, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Louisiana/ acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in 
the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 180 bags of flour 
at New Orleans, La.; alleging that the article had been shipped on or about 
June 6, 1938, by Ismert-Hincke Milling Co., Kansas City, Mo.; and charging 
adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. The article was labeled 
in part: "Bleached I-H Thunderbolt Flour."
Adulteration was alleged in that the article consisted wholly or in part 
of a filthy vegetable substance.
On September 29, 193&, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
