On March 20, 1939, the United States attorney for the Third Division of the 
District of Alaska, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed 
in the district court an information against Andrew S. Day, trading as North 
Pacific Sea Foods at Dayville (near Valdez), Alaska, alleging shipment by 
said defendant in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, within the period 
from on or about July 16 to on or about September 13, 1938, from the Territory 
of Alaska into the State of Washington of quantities of canned salmon which 
was adulterated.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole and 
in part of a decomposed animal substance.
On October 7, 1939, the defendant entered a plea of guilty and the court im- 
posed a fine of $100.
