On February 10, 1941, the United States attorney for the Southern District 
of New York filed a libel against 31 cartons of tomato paste at New York, 
N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about December 30, 1938, 
by Luigi Vitelli & Figlio from Naples, Italy; and charging that it was adulter- 
ated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance. The 
article was labeled in part: (Cans) "Elvea Estratto a Pomodoro."
On March 10, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
