article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about July 13, 1940, by 
Slade Gorton Co. from Gloucester, Mass.; and charging that it was adulterated 
in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy and decomposed substance. 
The article was labeled in part: "Red Perch Fillets.* *,* * T. & J. Busalacchi 
Inc. Fish Fillets Deep Sea Brand Boston, Mass."
On September 25, 1940, the Slade Gorton Co., claimant, having consented to
