806. Misbranding of sardines. U. S. v. 2,450 Cans of Sardines. Default decree entered. Product ordered distributed to charitable institutions. (F. D. C. No. 1357. Sample No. 86554r-D.) These sardines were packed to only about 76 percent of the capacity of the Kans. On or about January 18, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of Connecticut filed a libel against 2,450 cans of sardines at New London, Conn., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about September 14, 1939, by the Ramsdell Packing Co. from Rockland, Maine; and charging that it was misbranded in that its containers were so made, formed, or filled as to be misleading. On April 26, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment was entered ordering that the product be distributed to charitable institutions.
