Wake Forest merchant blacklisted for flour and cereal order

W. W. Holding, Wake Forest merchant, was blacklisted by the Food Administration for selling white flour without an equal amount of another cereal.

Penalties up to a $5,000 fine or two years in prison may follow hoarding or evasion. The action, first in the state, underscores strict enforcement and may close Holding’s business while stock remains.
