3370. Adulteration of evaporated peaches.   TJ. S. v. 300 Boxes and 221 Boxes of
Peaches.    Decrees of condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. Nos. 6609, 
7082.    Sample Nos. 39784-E, 71732-E, 71757-E.)
On December 31, 1941, and March 21, 1942, the United States attorneys for 
the Northern District of Illinois and the Western District of Tennessee filed 
libels against 300 25-pound boxes of peaches at Chicago, Ill., and 221 25-pound 
boxes of peaches at Lexington, Tenn., alleging that the article had been shipped 
in interstate commerce on or about October 27, 1941, by Vagim Packing Co. from 
Fresno, 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: "Sail- 
Maker Brand Recleaned California Peaches."
On April 10, 1942, no claimant having appeared for the peaches seized at 
Chicago., judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered 
destroyed. On June 1, 1942, the consignee of the lot seized at Lexington having 
appeared for the purpose of securing samples but having taken no further 
action and no other claimant or intervenor having appeared, judgment of con- 
demnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
