released under bond for re-reflning.    (F. D. C. No. 8539.   Sample No. 9013-F.)
This product had been stored under insanitary conditions after shipment. 
When the sugar was examined it contained rodent hair fragments, beetles, insect 
parts, and miscellaneous filth. 

On October 7,1942, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of Texas 
filed a libel against 450 100-pound bags of sugar in possession of T. L. Brice 
Co., Sherman, Tex., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate 
commerce within the period; frons on or about February 18 to on or about April 
25, 1942, from Shreveport, La.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it 
consisted in whole or in part of a filthy substance, and in that it had been held 
under insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated with 
filth. The article was labeled in part: (Bag) "Cane River Brand Pure Cane 
.Granulated Sugar Distributed by J. D. Plilar Company, Inc. Shreveport, 
Louisiana."
On November 19,1942, the T. L. Brice Co., having appeared as claimant, judg- 
ment was entered ordering that the product be released under bond for re-refin- 
ing under the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration.
