On August 5, 1941, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Pennsylvania filed a libel against 5 cases, each containing 24 cans, of fried 
chicken at Philadelphia, Pa., alleging that the article had been shipped on or 
about March 6, 1941, by the Nomis Corporation from Jacksonville, Fla.; 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: (Cans) "Penguin
