On February 25 and March 22, 1941, the United States attorneys for the 
Northern District of California and the District of Oregon filed libels against 
87 cases of huckleberAes at San Francisco, Calif., and 37 cases at Salem, Oreg., 
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
January 6 and 28, 1941, by Fassett & Co. from Tacoma, Wash.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy sub- 
stance. It was labeled in part: (Cans) "Plaza Brand Water Pack Pie Huckle- 
berries."
On April 5 and May 9, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgments of con- 
demnation were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
