This jump, the officials said would cost consumers millions of dollars annually. In response to questions, Wallace told reporters that the baking indus- try had begun its arguments for a price increase last month “when prices were lower than a year ago.” Agriculture department figures, the secretary said, estimated that on Sept. 24, the cost of ingredients in a loaf of bread was 0.52 of a cent greater than at the same time last year.
