513. Adulteration of  flour.     U.   S.  v.   Six  08-Pound  Bags  and Bight  48-Pound
Bags of Flour.     Default decree of condemnation and destruction.   (F. D. C.
No. 1484.    Sample No. 47853-D.)
On February 14, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District 
of Virginia filed a libel against 14 bags of flour at Norfolk, Va., alleging that 
the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about November 8,
1939, from Goldsboro, N. C, by American Sales Corporation, via Shenandoah 
Milling Co. truck; and charging that it was adulterated. This was a returned 
shipment consisting of a part of a lot of flour originally shipped by the Shenan- 
doah Milling Co. from Norfolk, Va., to Goldsboro, N. C. The article was labeled 
in part: "Made from Select Wheat   *    *    *    Star Milling Co. Hampstead, Md."
It was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a 
filthy substance.
On April 22, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
