(Continued from pogu 1.)
Hitler's Former Baker
Arrested in New York
of conspiracy to fix prices of
packaged family flour sold
Ihrouidioiit the United Slates.
The Indictment set forth that
approximately lli.OOO.OOO barrels
of family flour are sold annually
in the United States and HI per
cent of this amount is milled by
members of the Millers National
Federation, the defendant trade
association.
Packaged family flour is that
sold ordinarily for use In homes,
as distinct from bulk bakery
flour. The indictment charged
that in spile of variables among
the defendants In their cost of
producing packaged flour, the de
fendants met from time to time
and agreed upon u uniform sche
dule of price differentials to he
applied to lh various sizes of
packages in which family flour
is sold.
The government charged that
the mijlers federation published
and circulated printed schedules
of the uniform price differentials
and that each of the defendants
used these schedules in making
up Its own prion list.
The addition of theso packag
ing charges, the Indictment con
tended, had ihe effect of increas
ing bulk prices charged by mil
iars by more than 100 per cent
in some sizes.
The Indictment charged that as
a result of this alleged conspl-
enemy alien, it was announced to
day.
K. K. Conroy, special agent in
charge of the Fill, said the 40-year-old
baker told him lie came
here from lierchtesgaden in V.I'M,
anil had been employed In a well
known west 42nd St. restaurant.
Conroy said he told agents he j
refused to serve in the U. is. army
against any axis power, and had
two brothers, one in the German
army and the other a German
policeman.
