On October 19, 1939, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Washington filed in the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation 
of 34 cases of dried prunes at Bellingham, Wash., alleging that the article had 
been shipped On or about April 27,1939, by Guggenhime & Co. from San Francisco, 
Calif.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in 
part of a filthy substance. The article was labeled in part: "Reliance Brand 
Santa Clara Prunes Packed for Northern Grocery Co. Bellingham, Wash."
On February 10, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
