This product was found to be decomposed and/or to have a metallic taste.
On July 15, 1937, the United States attorney for the District of Colorado, 
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court 
a libel praying seizure and condemnation of three cans of cream at Denver, 
Colo., alleging that it had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
July 10, 1937, in various shipments by Alice Morton, Black Wolf, Kans.; Co-Op. 
Union Merc. Co., Black Wolf, Kans.; and A. L. Bangart, Big Springs, Nebr., and 
charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in 
part of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid animal substance.
On July 15, 1937, the consignee having admitted the allegations of the libel 
and consented to the entry of a decree, judgment was entered ordering that 
the product be destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
