446. Adulteration of apple chops.    TJ. S. v. 96 Sacks of Apple Chops.    Default
decree of condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 1292.    Sample No. 
84873-D.)
This product had been shipped in interstate commerce and was in inter- 
state commerce when examined, at which time it was found to be insect- 
infested and dirty.
On January 4, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Missouri filed a libel against 96 sacks of apple chops at St. Louis, Mo., alleging 
that the article had been shipped on or about April 20, 1939, by Washington 
Dehydrated Food Co. from Chelan, Wash.; and charging that it was adulter- 
ated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance.
On February 28, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
