831. Misbranding; of mercurochrome.   U. S. v. 60 Dozen Bottles, of Mercurochrome.
Default decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 7841. Sam-
ple No. 78842-E.)
On June 30, 1942, the United States attorney for the Western District of
Pennsylvania filed a libel against 60 dozen bottles of mercurochrome at Pitts-
burgh, Pa., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or
about April 9, 1942, by the Certified Pharmacal Co., Inc., from New York, N. Y.;
and charging that it was misbranded in that the statement "ClSrMffts^S^c.,"
borne on the label was false and misleading as applied to an article in bottles-
containing less than 9 cubic centimeters.
On August 10, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
