of condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 2431.   Sample No. 15341-E.)
On July 24, 1940, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of Mis- 
souri filed a libel against 140 boxes of cod fillets at St. Louis, Mo., alleging that 
the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about July 15, 1940, 
by the Genoa Fisheries, Inc., from Boston, Mass.; and charging that it was 
adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance. 
The article was labeled in part: "Genoa Brand Frosted Skinless Cod Fillets."
On September 6, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered
