971. Adulteration of flour.    IT. S. v. 84 Bags of Flour.    Default decree of con¬
demnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 2535.    Sample No. 28825-E.)
On August 17, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
North Carolina filed a libel against thirty-four 98-pound bags of flour at Wilson, 
N. C, alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or 
about May 3,1940, by the Mayflower Mills from Fort Wayne, Ind.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy 
substance.   It was labeled in part: "Chief Justice Flour."
On October 15, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and it was ordered that the product be destroyed after 30 days 
unless taken down under bond by the owner. The product was subsequently 
destroyed in accordance with said order.
