Examination showed that these packages were filled to only one-third of their 
capacity.
On May 9, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of Nevada filed 
a libel against 21 cases of Chinese noodles at Reno, Nev., alleging that the 
article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about March 30, 1940, 
by the Majestic Paste Co. from San Franeiseo, Calif.; and charging that it was 
misbranded in that its containers were so made, formed, or filled as to be mis- 
leading. It was labeled in part: (Packages) "Chinese Noodles * * * 
Majestic Brand."
On June 14, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered delivered to a charitable institution.
