30086. Adulteration of corn meal. V. S. v. 66 Bags of Meal. Default decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. & D. No. 43892. Sample No. 38141-D.) This product, which had been shipped in interstate commerce and remained unsold and in the original packages at the time of examination, was found to be insect-infested. On September 15, 1938, the United States attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 66 bags of corn meal at Mobile, Ala.; alleging that the article had been shipped on or about August 13, 1938, by the Scott County Milling Co. from Oran, Mo.; and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. Adulteration was alleged in that the article consisted wholly or in part of a filthy vegetable substance. On October 21, 1938, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed. HARRY L. BROWN, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
