283. Adulteration of prunes.     TT.  S. v. 42 Cases of Prunes.     Default decree of 
condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 849.    Sample No.  83242-D.)
1 On November 1, 1939, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Washington filed a libel against 42 cases of prunes at Walla Walla, Wash., 
alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about 
December 30, 1938, by Rosenberg Bros. & Co. from Fresno, Calif.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy and 
decomposed substance. It was labeled in part: "Ensign Brand Santa Clara 
Prunes."
On December 19, 1939, no claimant having appeared, judgment condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
