George W. C. Baker

George Washington Conrad Baker (September 28, 1872 – April 13, 1953)[1] was a member of the Los Angeles, California, City Council from 1931 to 1935.

Baker attended Lincoln Grammar and Hayes Valley Grammar schools in San Francisco and graduated from Commercial High School in that city; he then did four years of legal study with the firm of Frank and Eisner, also in San Francisco.

[1][2] He lived briefly in San Jose and "was instrumental in developing the oil industry in Central California counties.

Baker was a member of the City Club, Native Sons of the Golden West, Kiwanis, and Masons.

Thomas replied: "Mr. Baker is either wilfully ignorant of the activities and duties of the investigating department of the City Prosecutor's office, or else has deliberately allowed himself to be made the mouthpiece of designing politicians and underworld groups.

[8] 1932 Baker introduced a resolution asking for an ordinance to require inspection and certification of raw-milk dairies, a move opposed by Council Member Evan Lewis, who asserted it was a scheme to raise the price of milk.
