condemnation.    Product released under bond for  relabeling.     (F.  D. C.
No. 3827.     Sample No. 50075-E.)
This product occupied on an average about 60 percent of the capacity of the 
carton in which it was packed.
On February 15, 1941, the United States attorney for the District of Columbia 
filed a libel against 168 packages of tea at Washington, D: C, alleging that the 
article was being offered for sale in the District of Columbia by the John H. 
Wilkins Co., Washington, D. C.; and charging that it was misbranded. It was 
labeled in part: (Cartons) "3 Ounces * * * Swanee Tea Orange Pekoe and 
Pekoe Imported."
The article was alleged to be misbranded in that its container was so made, 
formed, or filled as to be misleading.
On April 17, 1941, the John H. Wilkins Co., claimant, having admitted the al- 
legations of the libel, judgment of condemnation was entered' and the product 
was ordered released under bond conditioned that it be repackaged under the 
supervision of the Food and Drug Administration.
