pure orange juice over an 49,
month period. The jury also
found them guilty of shipping
adulterated and misbranded
Juice in interstate commerce.
The Federal Judge who pre-
sided at the trial recalled that
the Cal = Tex officials had
denied to another judge that
they put sugar and water in
their orange juice. He ordered
the record of the Injunction
hearing referred to the grand
jury and Gordon Van Lew was
convicted of perjury.
Meanwhile, Assistant United
States Attorney Maley asked for
an injunction to stop Cal-Tex
from misbranding its orange
juice. The same Judge who had
refused to grant the injunction
nearly a year earlier was now
of a different mind. He issued
a restraining order and set a
date for a hearing. The CAL
Tex officials gave up. They
agreed to the terms of an in
junction barring the shipment
OF watered and sugared orange
juice as the pure thing.
This time, a different In"
spector Moses walked out of
the Houston courtroom. His

New Orleans inspectors walk
past his window to join Moses
and the deputy marshal on the
corner. Three minutes later. he
heard an alarm sounding al
the back of the plant.
They must be at the front
door," he remarked to Howell
They we're. When Becker, the
secretary-treasurer of CAL Tex,
came to the door, Moses hand
ed him the notice Of inspec-
ton and introduced Mathews
who gave him the warrant.
Becker dashed into the plant
laboratory and shut the door
Moses and Matthews followed
The laboratory was empty
They spotted a bathroom door
and the marshal started ham,
mering on it. They heard the
toilet flush and Moses won

down the drain.

could seize all the juice in the

The name on the orders rang
a bell with Moses. Van Lew
had said he needed the sugar
to fill an order for a Dallas
orange drink company and
here was the same name again.
Verne Madison had picked up
the ascorbic acid himself.
A check with the Dallas COM
pany tied the last knot: Cal
Tex had made only one batch
OF orange drink for them, thus
accounting for the order Van
Lew had shown Moses. The
firm denied 1t had authorized
Madison to buy ascorbic acid.
On April Z, 1860, the Van
Liews, Becker and Madison
were convicted of conspiring to
sell close to $75O,O0O worth Of
sweetened water in place of

Sugar on Floor

Moses, Duncan and the mar
shall headed directly for the
shed In the rear. They found
only cases Of glass bottles, but
Moses noticed a door in the
back and opened 1t. Across q
narrow alley was another shed
at which he had assumed be-
longed to the property next
door. He entered the window
less old building and, peering
into the gloom, saw nothing
but cardboard boxes stacked to
the ceiling.
AS he started down the mar
row aisle between the boxes,
he felt something crunch I'M
derfoot. Dropping to his knees,
he turned his flashlight on the
ground. A thin line Of sugar
led to the wall of boxes.
With a shout to the others,
Moses started tearing down
the boxes. His flashlight, prob
ing the cave he made, focused
on a. 60-pound bag Of sugar.
He pulled down more boxes and
found ten more big bags of
sugar and a 60-pound drum of
corn syrup.
Up in the apartment, the
surveillance team relaxed as
the inspectors emerged from
the shed with sacks Of sugar.
Then Mrs. Smith let out a
squeal.
Ooh. look at those orange
.peels coming outl"
At last, with inspectors
swarming over the plant, the
orange juice was being pre-
pared as nature made 1t.
BY now, Gordon Van Lew.
the company president, had ar
rived and Moses told him he
had found the sugar.
I'VE never denied we had it,"
Van Lew coolly responded. I'VE
used 1t to make an orange
drink"
When did you make orange
drink" Moses asked.
ION July IS, for a Dallas
company. have the order form
right here"
Moses asked about the drum
of syrup found in the sugar
cache.
I'VE ordered that a long time
ago for the orange drink" Van
Lew replied.
Moses went straight to his

THE FEDERAL INVESTIGATORS
Orange Juice AduIteration Sticky Case to Crack

had bought "a tons. To estab-
lish the link between Cal-Tex
and Transportation Leasing,
Moses sent to Austin for the
charters of both corporations.
AS the Cal-Tex employee had
said, Madison headed Trans
portation Leasing, but its Of
ficers included the top COM
mand of Cal-Tex - the Van
Lew brothers and Becker.
The informant had said CAL
Tex started adding corn syrup
to its product after the injunc-
ton hearing and Moses knew
what that meant: When the
analysts at the hearing demon
Strated that the balance be-
tween sucrose and simple SUI
gars was out of whack, the
Cal-Tex people figured they
could restore the proper ratio
with corn syrup.
From Anheuser-B Busch - the
name on the drums Moses
got the name of the wholesaler
for the firms corn syrup.
Checking the wholesalers cash
sales slips, he found one for
ten 60-pound drums, dated
June rs, and from then on,
the sales increased. On July
20, he observed a ton of sugar
was ordered. That was the day
the marshal carted away all
the sugar in the Cal-Tex plant.
Looking for some way to tie
Cal-Tex to the cash buys, Moses
interviewed the clerk who
handled the transactions.
Il don't know the name of
the firm" the clerk said, but
the driver comes in a green
paneled truck. The first time
I sold him $l91 worth Of syrup,
he paid me with two 500 bills.
I was afraid they might be
counterfeit so I took down the
license number"
The number was listed to
Transportation Leasing.
Despite the efforts Of CAL
Tex to mask its operations, the
inspector now had everything
he needed but one element

chemist to find out If the
samples McKagen had collected
showed less than the normal
Vitamin C content of pure
orange juice.
II found more Vitamin C
than In the authentic juice. "
Deal reported. They must be
adding 1t some way"
Moses frowned. He hadn't
found any ascorbic acid in his
search Of the plant.
II wonder If that's what
Becker was flushing down the
drain" he said thoughtfully.
The chemist had a message
for the inspector. A Cal-Tex
employe had phoned the Food
and Drug office and asked that
an inspector come to his home
that night.
I'm damn tired Of seeing
these people live so high off
sugar and water" he told
Moses and Duncan.
He said the sugar was
bought in the name of Trans
portation Leasing, Inc, headed
by Verne C. Madison. Moses
listened intently as the man
went on:
When you all arrived, some
body pressed the alarm and
Madison grabbed four of the
employees and had them hide
the drums of syrup at each
end Of the workbench in the
shed. He covered the whole
thing with canvas and piled
tools on it so it would all
look like one workbench"
But Moses still needed proof
of every added element in the
Juice before he faced a Judge
again. From the sanitary engi-
neers of the Houston water
division, he learned that the
water serving the plant came
from five wells. Analysis of
this water showed seven-tenths
ride.
