684. Adulteration of candy.     U. S. v. 49 Boxes and 17 Boxes of Candy.    Default
decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. Nos. 386, 387.    Sample 
Nos. 61027-D, 61028-D.)
This product was in interstate commerce at the time of examination and was 
found to be insect-infested at that time.
On August 21, 1939, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Louisiana filed a libel against 66 boxes of candy at Lafayette, La., alleging that 
the article had been shipped within the period from on or about May 6 to on 
or about June 16, 1939
* by Curtiss Candy Co. from Chicago, Ill; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or hi part of a filthy sub- 
stance. The article was labeled in part: (Wrapper) "Curtiss Baby Ruth [or 
"Butterfinger"]."
On January 5, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
