On April 3, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western District of New 
York filed a libel against 43 cases, each containing 24 bottles, of tomato catsup 
at Buffalo, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about March 
5, 1941, by Becker Prentiss, Inc., from Austin, Ind.; and charging that it was 
adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a decomposed substance. 
The article was labeled in part: (Bottles) "American Beauty Brand Tomato 
Catsup Packed by Morgan Packing Co., Austin, Ind."
On April 30, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
