210. Adulteration of shell eggs.     U. S. v. 122 Cases of Shell Eggs.     Decree of
condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 736.    Sample No. 674S0-D.)
These eggs were decomposed.
On October 16, 1939, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
New York filed a libel against 122 cases of shell eggs at Valley Stream, Long 
Island, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce 
on or about October 6, 1939, by an unknown shipper from New Jersey; and 
charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a 
decomposed substance.
On October 18, 1939, judgment was entered ordering the immediate destruction 
of the product since it was a nuisance and menace to health.
