On February 24, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District 
of Washington filed a libel against 149 cases of hot sauce at Spokane, Wash., 
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
January 27, 1940, from Oakland, Calif., by the Independent Grocers Alliance: 
and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part 
of a filthy and decomposed substance. It was labeled in part: "Roundup Brand 
Hot Sauce    *    *    *    Packed For Roundup Grocery Co. Spokane, Wash."
On April 2, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
