per records were filed in Federal
court by u. S. Attorney John F. x.
McGohey against the firms and
several individuals.
Assistant U. S. Attorney Peter j.
Lonoghue said the defendants 'cut
off certain of their regular Gus
toners so as to have available for
diversion to black market chan
nels additional quantities OF CT
garets."

was not willing to pay the addition

Defendants are W. Simon. Inc,

burg; and Ben Maslinoff and John
Maslinoff.
If convicted, the individuals face
possible sentence of one year and
$4,000 fine on each count. The cor
porate defendants would face pos
sible fine of $1,000 on each count.
Donoghue said the purported
violations began last July with
sales of popular brand cigarets in
case lots at a price of $75 a case
when OPA ceiling prices were
$40. 40.
AS the shortage became more
acute, he said. the price was boost
