1819. Adulteration of dressed chickens.    IT.  S.  v. 3 Barrels and 6 Barrels   of
Dressed   Chickens.    Default  decrees  of  condemnation   and  destruction.
(F. D. C. Nos. 4223, 4224.   Sample Nos. 31246-E, 31247-E.)
On March 19 and 21, 1941, the United States attorney for the Northern Dis- 
trict of Illinois filed libels against 9 barrels of dressed chickens at Chicago, Ill., 
alleging that the article had been shipped on February 6, 1941, from Minne- 
apolis, Minn., by Weinberg Bros. & Co.; and charging that it was adulterated 
in that it was the product of diseased animals, and that a portion of the product 
was adulterated further in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decom- 
posed substance.   The article was labeled in part: "Animal food."
On May 13, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgments of condemnation 
were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
Nos. 1820 and 1821 report the seizure and disposition of poultry that was 
in whole or in part decomposed.
