Sunkist Growers Report Increase in Citrus Returns over 1951 Despite Acreage Removal
The sales value of all fresh fruit and products marketed by Sunkist Growers during the crop year ending Oct. 31, 1952 was $165 million, an increase of approximately $15 million over returns for the previous year, Paul S. Armstrong, general manager of the citrus marketing cooperative, reported to the board of directors at their annual meeting today.
The increase in returns occurred during a year in which further significant changes have taken place in the citrus industry, the most obvious of which is the removal of acreage to make way for residential subdivision and factory sites throughout the citrus area. Approximately 5000 acres annually during the past five years have been converted to other use.
"Much of the acreage removed was not the best citrus land," Armstrong said. "The 300,000 acres still in production will provide a substantial volume of fruit for years to come. Citrus is still California's leading fruit crop in dollar volume."
Fresh fruit shipments from Sunkist affiliated packing houses totaled 64,134 carloads, a slight decline from the previous year, while an additional 26,700 cars of citrus were converted into a wide range of citrus products at the Exchange Orange Products Company and Exchange Lemon Products Company plants.
Sunkist Growers membership gained an additionel 10,087 acres during the year. "This was the biggest gain in membership in the history of the organization," Armstrong reported. The cooperative accounted for 73.4 per cent of the total fresh fruit shipped from California and Arizona during the 1951-52 fiscal year, a gain of about 3½ per cent in volume over the previous year.
The most valuable asset the citrus industry has is consumer demand," Armstrong said. "This has been growing steadily each year and with the development of frozen concentrates, together with several types of juices and ades in convenient form for ready use, total citrus demand has reached still higher levels. Surveys have found that citrus—either fresh, frozen or canned—constitutes 41 per cent of the consumption of all fruit."
An indication of the value of citrus both fresh and processed in the retail field was reported by Armstrong in four simple figures. The retail sales value of all citrus in 1951 was $714 million. This compares with $464 million for all canned vegetables; $426 million for all other canned fruits; and $444 million for flour. Citrus is an increasingly important commodity in total sales in food stores.
An aggressive advertising campaign was employed throughout the year, according to Armstrong, for both fresh fruits and products. Emphasis was placed on the nutritional values of "proteopectins," the health element which is found sumer concentrates and juices under the Sunkist trademark.
Export sales of fresh citrus were more than 6000 carloads of all varieties, mostly oranges, and returned about $10 million, the highest dollar return on record. Despite supply difficulties during the summer, the export of lemons was maintained, almost doubling the movement of last season. Sunkist lemons are now well known, especially in Belgium and Holland despite a large European lemon production.
Prison Riot Quelled with Shotgun Blasts
JACKSON, Mich. (AP) — With rioting inmates' subdued by shotgun blasts, authorities at Southern Michigan prison today began a probe in which they hoped to pin the blame for the third major uprising here this year.
It broke out in the mess hall last night. For a time there were 2200 wildly milling rioters involved, many streaming into yards from cellblocks forced by pals. Some had knives grabbed from the kitchen. Others had clubs.
More than 20 shotgun blasts were fired into the air. So were several bursts from a sub-machine gun before the two-hour disturbance was quelled. No one was wounded. One convict, however, suffered a scalp wound from a flying missile.
Still, a death may result from the riot. Capt. Earl Secrist, one of 150 state troopers speeding to

Among the many comments was that of Penny MacDonald, bookkeeper at Aaron Schultz Furniture store: "Foot traffic was noticeably increased," she said. "Anaheim is growing so fast I would like to see something similar to the campaign run once a month to acquaint newcomers to Anaheim with the local merchants and the fact that there is no need for out-of-town buying."
Mrs. Martha Schumacher and Harry Coughlan of the S.Q.R. store agreed that the "increased business promoted by the campaign was very gratifying and that they were greatly encouraged by the evidence that the people of Anaheim can and will confine their buying within the city.
Bigger Margin
LONDON UP — Prime Minister Churchill's Conservatives more than maintained their parliamentary voting margin last night in the first crucial test of their drive to roll back Socialist legislation passed by the previous labor government.
The House of Commons approved 302-262 the decisive second reading of a bill restoring Britain's nationalized trucking industry to private ownership. The normal Conservative margin in the 625-seat House is 16.
