Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notices of Judgment Under the Insecticide Act: Given Pursuant to Section 4 of the Insecticide Act, 1666-1690 On May 3, Ti. £6, the United States attorney for the District of Massachusetts, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court an information against Clarence E. Worthen, trustee in a declaration of trust for the American Proprietary Syndicate and trading as the American Drug Sales Co. At Malden, Mass, alleging shipment by said defendant on or about July 29, 1937, from the State of Massachusetts into the State of Maine of a quantity of cre-o-tol, which was a misbranded fungicide within the meaning of the Insecticide Act of 1910. The article was alleged to be misbranded in that the statements, As a Disinfectant Waste Pipes, Garbage Can, kitchen-sink and Tubs Teaspoonful to quart of water Scrubbing and Cleansing, Sprinkling Cellar. Tablespoonful to pail of water. In the Sick Room. Teaspoonful to a quart of water. Wash clothing, vessels, linen, floors, and woodwork, borne on the bottle label, were false and misleading and by reason of the said statements the article was labeled so as to deceive and mislead the purchaser in that they represented that the article would disinfect waste pipes, could be relied upon to disinfect the cellar when used as directed, and would be an effective disinfectant for garbage cans, kitchen sinks and tubs, for the sickroom, on clothing, vessels, linens, floors. And woodwork, when used at the dilutions recommended; whereas it would not be effective for the said purposes when used as directed at the dilutions recommended. The article was alleged to be misbranded further in that it consisted partially of an inert substance, namely, water, which substance does not prevent, destroy, repel, or mitigate insects or fungi (bacteria) and the name and percentage amount of the said inert substance were not stated plainly and correctly on the label affixed to the bottle containing the article; nor in lieu thereof were the name and percentage amount of each substance or ingredient of the article having fungicidal (bactericidal) properties, and the total percentage of the inert substance present therein stated plainly and correctly on the bottle label.
