28817. Adulteration and misbranding of frozen eggs.    U. S. v. 55 Cans of Frozen
Eggs.      Default   decree   of  condemnation  and  destruction.       (F.   &  D.
No. 41859.   Sample No. 8080-D.)
This product was decomposed; it also failed to bear a statement of the 
quantity of contents.
On March 3, 1938, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
New York, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 55 cans of frozen 
eggs at New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in inter- 
state commerce on or about February 3 and 7, 1938, from Jersey City, N. J., 
by June Dairy Products Co., Inc., and charging adulteration and misbranding 
in violation of the Food and Drugs Act as amended.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or 
in part of a decomposed or putrid animal substance.
It was alleged to be misbranded in that it was food in package form and 
the quantity of the contents was not plainly and conspicuously marked on the 
outside of the package, since no declaration was made thereon.
On March 22, 1938, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
