poses.    (F. D. C. Nos. 8051 and 8052.    Sample Nos.  16997-F and 16998-F.)
On July 24 and 25, 1942, the United States attorney for the Southern District 
of New York filed a libel against 29 tubs, each containing 62 pounds, of butter at 
New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate com- 
merce on or about July 16, 1942, by Davis-Cleaver Produce Co., from Quincy, 
111.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part 
of a filthy, putrid, or decomposed substance.
On August 14, J.942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and it was ordered that the product be turned over to the New York 
Gity Salvage Committee for war purposes.
