No. 5175.    Sample Nos. 60820-E to 60823-E, inel.)
On July 21, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western District of Wash- 
ington filed a libel against 93 boxes, each containing 24 bars, of candy at Seattle, 
Wash., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce in part 
on or about June 24, 1941, by Ghas. Rawak Co. and in part on or about July 3, 
1941, by Rawak Candy Co. from Los Angeles, Calif.; and charging that it was 
adulterated. It was labeled in part: (Bars) "Nut-ty Big Chew of; "Cherry 
Cream"; "Maple Walnut" ; or "Spanish Peanut."
All lots of the article were alleged to be adulterated in that it had been pre- 
pared under insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated 
with filth. All lots of the article except that labeled "Spanish Peanut" were 
alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy 
substance.
On September 29,1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
