13560. Misbranding: of grapes. U. S. v. Charles Peter Lawson (C. P. Law- 
son & Sons). Plea of guilty. Fine, $25. (F. & D. No. 17409. I. S. 
No. 6638-v.)
On June 12, 1923, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
New York, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in 
the District Court of the United States for said district an information against 
Charles Peter Lawson, trading as C. P. Lawson & Sons, Brocton, N. Y., alleg- 
ing shipment by said defendant, in violation of the food and drugs act as 
amended, on or about October 23, 1922, from the State of New York into the 
State of Missouri, of quantities of grapes in baskets which were misbranded.
Misbranding of the article was alleged in the information for the reason 
that it was food in package form and the quantity of the contents was not 
plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside of the package.
On June 19, 1923, the defendant entered a plea of guilty to the informa- 
tion, and the court imposed a fine of $25.
R. W. DUNLAP, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
