Default decrees of condemnation and destruction.     (F.  D.  C. Nos. 5074, 
5170.    Sample Nos. 59231-E, 59233-E.)
This product contained evidence of the presence of filth.
On June 9 and 16,1941, the United States attorney for the District of Maryland 
filed a libel against 4 barrels, each containing 200 cans, of crab meat at Baltimore, 
Md., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or 
about June 7 and 12, 1941, by the Gulf Crabmeat Co. from Mobile, Ala.; and 
charging that it was adulterated in that it had been prepared, packed, or held 
under insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated with 
filth or whereby it might have been rendered injurious to health.
On July 30, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemnation 
were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
