NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 403 (a), the label statement "White 
Meat Grated Tuna" was false and misleading as applied to grated tuna which 
was dark in color and had a flavor and odor stronger than that characteristic 
of white meat tuna; and, Section 403 (e) (2), the article failed to bear a label 
containing an accurate statement of the quantity of the contents. (The article 
was short-weight.)
DISPOSITION : March 15, 1948. The Rexton Products Corp., claimant, having 
consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation was entered and 
the product was ordered released under bond for relabeling under the supervi- 
sion of the Federal Security'Agency.
