4379. Adulteration of dried whole egg powder.    V. S. v. 1 Barrel of Whole Egg
Powder.    Default decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No.
8443.    Sample Nos. 6142-F, 25228-F.)
On September 28, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of Mary^ 
land filed a libel against 1 barrel of whole egg powder at Baltimore, Md., 
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
August 22, 1942, by Ehlenberger & Co., from St. Louis, Mo.; and charging that 
it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy substance, 
fly fragments and in that it had been prepared under insanitary conditions 
whereby it might have become contaminated with filth. The article was labeled 
in part: "Ehlen-Dryed Spray Dried Whole Egg Powder * * * Mfg. by 
Louisiana Egg Products   Ruston, La."
On October 9, 1942, an order was entered permitting the shipper to take a 
sample of the seized goods, and also authorizing the Food and Drug Adminis- 
tration to take a similar sample. On February 24, 1943, no claim having 
been entered, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered 
destroyed.
