FALSELY LABELED
Uncle Sans Pride of Products

of Distributors

The United States government is
proud of the products of California and
resents any attempt to pass off as
foreign any articles made within the
states boundaries. This was not real
ized by Wieland Brothers, produce dis
tributors, at 500 Davis street. until
they found themselves in the United
States district court yesterday. charged
with having shipped good California
cheese, manufactured by the Novato
French cheese company of Marin
county, with labels tending to deceive
the purchaser into thinking he was
buying a German production.
It is alleged In the Indictment under
which wieland Brothers were haled
into court and which was returned and
placed on the secret file last Friday.
that shipments were made last spring
by the accused distributors of cheese
bearing labels impressed with the i'm
perial German eagle and, in German
printing. with the words 'Fruhstucks
Kaschen.''
The United states district attorneys
office, acting in conjunction with the
pure food department of the govern
ment. is determined to have all Cali
fornia products Enthusiastically labeled
as such, and it is asserted that there
will be no let up until all local manu-
facturers comply with the laws in this
respect.
The government is on the trail of
those who are getting up bottles con-
tanning wines and liquors in imitation
of foreign importations, and further
indictments probably will be returned
