LIBELED :   7-29-59, W. Dist. Va.
CHARGE: 402(a)(3)—when shipped, the article contained decomposed fish; 
402(b)(2)—partially eviscerated whiting had been substituted for "Dressed 
Whole Whiting" which the article was represented to be; 402(b)(4)—par- 
tially eviscerated whiting had been packed with the article so as to make it 
appear to be dressed whiting, which was better and of greater value than the 
article; and 403(a)—the label statement "Dressed * * * Pan Ready * * * 
Thoroughly Cleaned Ready to Cook and Serve" was false and misleading as 
applied to a product which consisted in part of fish only partly eviscerated.
DISPOSITION :   9-2-59.   Default—destruction.
