957. Adulteration of flour.     U. S. v. 116 Bags of Flour.     Default decree of con¬
demnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 2690.    Sample No. 15890-E.)
On August 26, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Missouri filed a libel against 116 bags of flour at St. Louis, Mo., alleging that the 
article had been shipped in interstate commerce within the period from on or 
about May 25, 1938, to September 14, 1939, by the Arnold Milling Co. from 
Sterling, Kans.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted 
in whole or in part of a filthy substance. It was labeled in part: "Real Treat 
Flour Distributed by L. Cohen Grocer Co."
On September 20, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
