Vreeland, of the Scottish Unian and National In- surance (o, and his wife, of 7 Sonth Marshall street, this city. Following their arvests they were released by the marshal upon their own recog- nizance pending their appearance this afternoon for prelimina hearing before United States Commissioner Richard F. Carroll. The next session the United States Court at which a grand jury will sit will be held in New Haven next September.

Although the Connecticut office of the Federal Food Admini tration refused ta discuss the case, it is said that the case may rival the recent sensational sugar-hoarding raid in Washington on the home of Fran- cis H. Nash, a medical director in the Navy. While the local office of tha Tood Administration disclaimed any present connection with the case, sa ing all infarmation must now come from the office of the United States district attorney, it was admitted that the amount of sugar found last night is considerably less than that in the Washington raid and will approximate about 100 pounds. Even where the Food tion has accepted canners’ for lots of 25 or 50 pounds of sugar for legitimate canning purposes, it is well known that the administration considers the secret hoarding and the steady accumulation of small lots of sugar as hoarding under the Lever Food Control Act of August 10, 1917. Section 6 of this act provides that any person who wilfully hoards any neces- saries shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined not exceeding $5,000 or be imprisoned for not more than two vears, or both. Under the law, ne saries shall be deemed to be hoarded within the meaning of the act when held by any person in a quantity in ex s of his reasonable requirements for use or consumption by himself and dependents for a reasonable time.

On the food admin- istration’s basis of a fair allowance ot sugar being three pounds per per- son per month, the family in que! tion had enough to last them well inte next year. The first arrest, con- viction and sentence for hoarding under the federal act was made in Connecticut last winter, although smce then several other convictions Fove been secured in other states. Last February, the Connecticut food administrator sent agents to Wood- bury and there they uncovered five | berrels of flour in the barn of Dwight Atwood, who was indicted and sen- tenced at New ven, by United States Court Judge Edwin S. Thomas, who remarked, in accepting the dis- | trict attorney’s recommendation, that Atwood be kept from prison, as a first offender, that hoarding was a | rarticularly despicable crime and celled for all the forces of the gov- ernment in suppressing and punishing | & At the district attorney’s office this afternoon, it was admitted that se- cret service agents had filed their | reports and left town and that a warrant had been served. 1t understood that the district | atlorney is in possession of evidence that the Vreelands had on hand pounds of sugar in unopened cartons and seven or eight pounds of sugar in another tin container. Both Mr. and Mrs. Vreeland were out autoing when the agents called and they were aamitted by the servant girl. During | the inspection of the premises, which was done so quietly that it attracted ne attention in the neighborhood, the | little Vreeland came in and was per- mitted to identify tnc secret service | agents’ credentials. The small tin can of sugar was lo- cated in the Vreeland pantry, ac- ccrding to reliable information, buta | further search revealed more un- opened wrapped cartons of sugar on top shelf of butler's pantry. Supersti- tious people will find consolation in | the fact that in the stock of hoarded sugar were thirteen 5lpound cartons and thirteen 2-pound cartons to- gether with some 1-pound cartons.
