275. Adulteration of  grreen  olives.     U.   S.  v.   8  Boxes  and  16 Boxes  of  Green
Olives.    Default decrees of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. Nos.
1036, 1037.    Sample Nos. 74117-D, 74119-D.)
This product was in interstate commerce when examined, and at that time 
it was found to be in whole or in part decomposed.
On November 22, 1939, the United States attorney for the District of Massa- 
chusetts filed libels against 24 boxes of green olives at Boston, Mass., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about November 
1, 1939, by Yaden, Keller & Young from New York, N. Y.; and charging that it 
was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed 
substance. The article was labeled in part: "Mt. Shasta * * * James Mills 
Orchards Corp. Hamilton City   *   *   *   California."
On December 18, 1939, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemna- 
tion were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
