772. Adulteration and misbranding of butter.    U. S. v. 59 60-Pound Cartons of
Butter.    Decree of condemnation.    Product ordered released under bond.
(F. D. C. No. 2064.   Sample No. 14718-E.)
On May 25, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Pennsylvania filed a libel against fifty-nine 60-pound cartons of butter at Phila- 
delphia, Pa., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce 
on or about May 16, 1940, by Mananah Creamery from Mananah, Minn.; and 
charging that it was adulterated and misbranded. It was labeled in part: 
"Butter Distributed by C. G. Heyd & Co., Phila, Pa."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that a product which contained 
less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had been substituted for butter. 
It was alleged to be misbranded in that the statement "Butter," on the label, 
was false and misleading since the product contained less than 80 percent 
of milk fat.
On May 28, 1940, C. G. Heyd & Co., Philadelphia, Pa., having appeared 
as claimant, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered 
released under bond conditioned that it should not be sold or disposed of 
contrary to law.
