Consent decree of condemnation. Product ordered released under bond 
to be brought into compliance with the law. (F. D. C. No. 6781. Sample 
No. 73385-E.)
On January 28, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of Kansas 
filed a libel against 400 cases, each containing 6 No. 10 cans, of cherries at Topeka, 
Kans., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about July 10, 1941, by 
Loveland Canning Co. from Loveland, Colo.; and charging that it was misbranded. 
It was labeled in part: (Cans) "Rainbow Brand Water Pack Pitted Red Sour 
Cherries   *   *   *    Selected Products, Inc. Chicago. Ill. Exclusive Distributors."
The article was alleged to be misbranded in that its quality fell below the stand- 
ard prescribed by regulations as provided by law and its label failed to bear in
such manner arid form as the regulations specify, a statement that it fell below 
such standard.
On March 10, 1942, Loveland Canning Co., claimant, having admitted the alle- 
gations of the libel, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was 
ordered released under bond to be brought into compliance with the law under 
the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration. Subsequently it was 
relabeled.
