PRODUCT:   7   1-gallon bottles of Bevco Stabilizer at Rock ord, Ill.

tains less than 2*4% pure quaternary ammonium chloride. * * * is not

NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 403 (a), the labeling was misleading 
since the trade name "Bevco," coupled with the directions for use, represented 
to purchasers that the article was wholesome and suitable for use as a com-
ponent of beverages for man, whereas the article contained a quaternary 
ammonium compound, which is a poisonous and deleterious substance, and 
the labeling failed to reveal that fact. 
DISPOSITION:   June 9, 1949.   Default decree of condemnation and destruction.
