After a moment of stunned silence, he said, all members of the committee dashed for telephones to notify their organizations. Imhof, who has been advocating termination of the order in talks throughout the citrus area, issued the following statement: "One function of the Orange Administrative committee that will be missed by the industry is the gathering of information and statistics such as size of tree crop, advance size measurements, and the amount of fruit to be shipped fresh, versus that which will be processed." "We sincerely hope that the orange industry in California will act swiftly to keep that part of the organization intact on an industry basis. OAC field personnel has a reputation second to none in the agricultural circles for the accuracy of their estimates. We believe this to be a must if marketing organizations are to do the right job." The 11 man prorate committee will now act as a board of trustees for terminating the affairs of the group as provided by the order. The USDA expects this to be accomplished within 60 days.
