Examination of this product showed that it was in whole or in part

On June 20,1939, the United States attorney for the District of New Jersey, 
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court 
a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 42 cases of canned evaporated
milk at East Orange, N. J.; alleging that the article had been shipped in 
interstate commerce on or about March 28, 1939, by the Ewing Von Allmen 
Dairy Co. from Findley, Ohio; and charging adulteration in violation of the 
Food and Drugs Act. The article was labeled in part: (Cans) "American 
House Evaporated Milk * * * Manufactured by Ewing Von Allmen 
Dairy Co."
It was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of 
a decomposed animal substance.
On August 2, 1939, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
