Man Held for Selling U S Owned Potatoes
Jacob Katz president of Katz Trucking Co. of Queens waived a hearing in federal court and was released on $1000 bail to face embezzlement charges involving 230 pounds of government owned potatoes. The case notes delivery shortages of 460000 pounds to a Roxbury distillery and sale to Newark dealers for 175 to 240 per 100 pounds, though government purchased them at 245. The price support program restricts use to school feeding, foreign relief, alcohol or stock feed.

The move follows a policy to disperse strength into smaller mobile groups capable of independent action in a crisis. The first Marine Wing, previously in China and Guam, is returning to the United States.
