corporation, and Edward T. Kanaley, an employee.
INTERSTATE SHIPMENT: On or about February 23 and July 10, 1950, from
the States of Missouri and New Jersey, of quantities of methyltestosterone tab-
lets, and on or about July 13,1950, from the State of Missouri, of a quantity of
Seconal Sodium capsules.
ALLEGED VIOLATION: pn November 6, 9, 14, 20, and 21, 1950, while the drugs
were being held for sale after shipment in interstate commerce, various
quantities of the drugs were repacked and sold without a physician's prescrip-
tion, which acts resulted in the repackaged drugs being misbranded.
The Norton Drug Stores, Inc., was charged with causing the acts of repacking
and sale of the drugs involved in each of the six counts of the information;
in addition, Theodore Cibolski, in each of five counts of the information, and
Edward T. Kanaley, in one count, were charged with causing the acts charged
in those counts.
NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 502 (b) (2), the repackaged drugs
failed to bear labels containing statements of the quantity of the contents;
and, Section 502 (f) (1), the labeling of the repackaged drugs failed to bear
adequate directions for use.
Further misbranding, Section 502 (d), the Seconal Sodium capsules con-
tained a chemical derivative of barbituric acid, which derivative has been
found to be, and by regulations designated as, habit forming; and the re-
packaged capsules bore no label containing the name, and quantity or pro-
portion of such derivative and in juxtaposition therewith the statement
"Warning-May be habit forming."
DISPOSITION : March 7, 1952. Pleas of guilty having been entered, the court
fined the corporation $60, Theodore Cibolski $50, and Edward T. Kanaley $10,
together with costs.
