1657. Adulteration of  Brazil  nuts.     V.   S.   v.   3   Bags   of  Brazil   Nuts.     Default
decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C.  No. 3446.     Sample No. 
34584-E.)
Examination showed that these nuts were in whole or in part moldy and 
decomposed.
On or about November 30, 1940, the United States attorney for the District 
of New Jersey filed a libel against three bags of Brazil nuts at Perth Amboy, 
N. J., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or 
about November 2 and 7, 1940, by Wm. A. Higgins & Co., Inc., from New 
York, N. Y.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole 
or in part of a decomposed substance.
On April 18, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
