Default  decree of condemnation and destruction.    (F.  D.   C.  No.   5006. 
.    Sample No. 55680-E.)
Examination showed that this product contained weevils.
On June 25, 1941, the United States attorney for the District of Oregon filed a 
libel against 20 cases, each containing 48 cans, of peas at Portland, Oreg., alleging 
that the article had been shipped on or about May 22,1941, by the Nelson Packing 
Oo. from San Francisco, Calif.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it
consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance.   The article was labeled in 
part: "Dinette Cooked Dried Alaska Peas, net contents 12% ounces."
On August 27, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
