571. Adulteration of shell eggs.     TJ. S. v. 162 Cases of eggs.     Default decree of
condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 1877.    Sample No. 13652-E.)
This product was in whole or in part decomposed and otherwise inedible.
On or about April 26, 1940, the United States attorney for the Western Dis- 
trict of Washington filed a libel against 162 cases of shell eggs at Takoma, 
Wash., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or 
about April 12, 1940, by Mountain Valley Produce from Salt Lake City, Utah; 
and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of 
a decomposed substance or was otherwise unfit for food. It was labeled in part: 
"Uncandled" or "Rots."
On May 18, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation was 
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
