LIBEL FILED :   August 29, 1951, Southern District of Illinois.
ALLEGED SHIPMENT : On or about January 17 and June 4, 1951, by Ira Addison, 
M. D., from Springfield, Mo.
PRODUCT: 390 60-tablet bottles of mineral tablets and 570 30-tablet bottles of 
nutritional tablets at Congerville, Ill.
LABEL IN PART: (Bottle) "Savoy Mineral Tablets Each Tablet Represents: 
Manganese sulfate 0.12 Gm., Magnesium sulfate 0.12 Gm., Copper sulfate 1.5 
mg., Cobalt sulfate 6 mg., Iron sulfate 30 mg., Zinc sulfate 1. mg." and "Savoy 
Nutritional Tablets Each Tablet contains: Dicalcium Phosphate (Calcium 
Phosphate Diabasic) 7% Grains."
NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 403 (j), the articles purported to be 
and were represented as foods for special dietary uses by reason of their 
mineral content, and their labels failed to bear such information concerning 
their mineral properties as the Federal Security Administrator has determined 
to be, and by regulations prescribed as, necessary in order fully to inform 
purchasers as to their value for such uses. The label for the mineral tablets 
failed to review the fact, as required by the regulations, that the need for 
manganese, cobalt, and zinc in human nutrition has not been established. 
The label for the nutritional tablets failed to state, as the regulations require, 
the proportion of the minimum daily requirements for calcium and phosphorus 
supplied by the article when consumed in a specified quantity during a period 
of one day.
The articles were alleged also to be misbranded under the provisions of the 
law applicable to drugs, as reported in notices of judgment on drugs and 
devices, No. 3915.
DISPOSITION: January 12, 1953. The Schrock Bros. Co., Congerville, Ill., 
claimant, having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the court ordered that the products be released under bond 
for relabeling, under the supervision of the Federal Security Agency.
