BAN ON FLORIDA
Quarantine Against Citrus
Stock May Be Killed
by Federal Bar
By RAYMOND BROOKS
AUSTIN. Aug. 26.- The federal
government has protested Texas'
quarantine against Florida citrus
nursery stock. George B* Terrell j
state commissiooner of agriculture
said.
Mr. Terrell Is now making a sur
very to determine whether the
Lower Rio Grande citrus fruit belt
can supply nursery stock reqqulred
for the Laredo and Winter Gardens
,sections. He also is gathering data
from Florida or. wh '• It will be
determined whether shipments of
nursery stock from that state would
be safe against bringing in the
Florida fruit ny.
The temporary state qquarantine ;
will be continued in effect until after
the Southwestern Nurserymen’s j
convention at F^-t Worth Sept. 4-5.
Mr. Terrell said Then a paramount
policy will be decided and If im
portations are permitted, regula
tions to safeguard Texas orchards
will be drawn up.
Mr. Terrell has not yet .ecelved
notice of the federal government s
••-odificar of its regulations gov
erning inter-state shipments of
Florida fruits and vegetables.
The United States department of
agriculture has objected to the
Texas quarantine because it appar
ently goes farther than federal i
regulators. 1 wis said.
Florida, he said, excludes all J
Texas nursery xk. ’ and I believe
If they can help our out we can
keep theirs out." he commented
Mr. Teyrell said purpose of »he state
department s to determine that
shipments into 'xas will be so
safeguarded that there .an be no
danger of brir'ing the fruit fly
to Texas orchar. or vegetable
fields, and that his department has ’
no purpose of discriminating again
st Florida nurserymen, as an econo
mic policy. We are going t do
everything possible to safeguard the
state from a serious infestation."
he declared.
