1870. Adulteration of candy.    U.  S. v. 51 Rolls of Port-Hole and 15 Rolls  of
Yankee Clipper,;    Default decree of condemnation and destruction.    (F.
D. C. No. 4074.   Sample Nos. 43176-E, 43177-E.)
Examination of this product showed that it contained rodent hairs and 
excreta, insect fragments, and miscellaneous filth.
On or about April 14, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western Dis- 
trict of Missouri filed a libel against 66 rolls, each containing 15 bars, of candy 
at Kansas City, Mo., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate 
commerce from Okmulgee, Okla., by the William Metzger Co. on or about 
February 28, 1941; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted 
wholly or in part of a filthy substance, and in that it had been prepared under 
insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated with filth. 
It was labeled in part: "Port-Hole" or "Yankee Clipper."
On May 6,1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation was 
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
