On July 21, 1919, the United States attorney for the Southern district of Ohio,?
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District Court?
of the United States for said district a libel for the seizure and condemnation of?
4 dozen bottles of Stops It In One Day, at Cincinnati, Ohio, consigned on or about?
April 22, and May 29, 1919, by "the O. K. Remedy Co., Brazil, Ind., alleging that?
the article had been transported from the State of Indiana into the State of Ohio,?
and charging misbranding in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, as amended.
Analysis of a sample of the article by the .Bureau of Chemistry of this depart??
ment showed that it consisted of 2 preparations, a bottle containing a dilute?
solution of berberine sulphate and a tube containing a mixture of potassium?
permanganate and potassium sulphate.
Misbranding of the article was alleged in substance in the libel in that certain?
statements appearing in the circulars accompanying, on the carton inclosing, and?
on the label on the bottle containing the article, regarding its curative or?
therapeutic effects, falsely and fraudulently represented the article to be effec??
tive as a remedy for gonorrhea, gleet, leucorrhea or whites, and venereal diseases?
of men and women, whereas, in truth and in fact, it was not effective.
On March 10, 1920, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation?
and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product be?
destroyed by the United States marshal..
