BREAD TO REMAIN
AT 10 CENTS A LOAF
Price May Be Increased Later if Con-
ditionS Warrant 1t, Food Admin
iStrator Tells Brokers.

Following a conference with wholesale
bakers Of New York, Arthur Williams
Federal Food Administrator, yesterday
declared that the Fair Price Committee
could not approve any advance in the
present price of wheat bread Each
baker, he said, must not charge more
than cost, plus a fair profit, and at all
times be prepared to show that his price
accords with this rule. Mr.. Williams said
of bread will remain - ten cents for the
present, but if the wholesalers later find
an increase necessary, they are not to
charge more than cost plus a fair profit
Julian III. Barnes, of the United States
Grain Corporation, was in favor of main
tanning the one pound loaf at ten cents
He did not approve Of any increase in
price through an association of bread
manufacturers. He stated that the United
States Grain Corporation is selling flour
at $1075 a BARREL which could very easily
be blended with the flour on the market
whichs is selling at $l5 barrel. John +.
Hildebrand. of the Schults Bread Com
pany, stated there was a loss of twenty
eight pounds in dough in the $l0.75 flour
and in addition there was not the same
amount of nutriment or gluten in the
bination would not make a good loaf of
bread.
Ralph Ward, Of the Ward Baking Com
pany, stated that his company had ex-
perimented with cheap flour in Boston
The first five days" he said I'VE sold
5000 loaves of bread made from the
cheaper flour for ten cents a loaf. The
next few days we sold at most 300 loaves
of the same bread I believe this is an
indication that the people did not approve
of poor quality bread. The trials given
cheap bread made from cheap flour had
proved a failure"
Mrs. Louise Reed Welzmiller. Deputy
Commissioners of Markets, stated yester-
day she had been In conference with
bakers and retail grocers and had learned
their objections to the use OF government
flour in making bread is that the flour is
not of a grade to make good, salable
loaf. The contention Of the bakers is that
the government flour, made of spring
wheat, while excellent for use in pastries,
cannot be used in the manufacture of
good bread.
