167. Adulteration of flour.    U. S. v. 70 Bags of Flour.    Default decree of con¬
demnation   and   destruction.     (F.   D.   C.   No.   762.    Sample   Nos.   68058-D, 
68060-D.)
On October 19, 1939, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
New York filed a libel against 70 bags of flour at New York, N. Y., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about September 
26, 1939, by Gross Bros. Flour Co., Inc., from Port Newark, N. J.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy 
substance. It was labeled in part: "Security Patent Flour Packed For Gross 
Bros."
On November 10, 1939, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
