Most striking of the quality changes increased the brix of frozen orange concentrate to 44.8 degrees while another of nearly equal importance outlaws the use of pulp washing in producing orange concentrate. THE COMMISSION action came after a day-long marathon session during which three separate public hearings were held: one on the brix change; another to increase the experimental pack of sugar-add concentrate and the third to increase the maximum ratio of frozen concentrated orange juice from 19.0 to 19.5 to 1. All were successfully guided through hearing and subsequent action by the commission.

ALSO RECEIVING- approval were six amendments to commission regulations, all pertaining to increased quality for orange concentrate. Used In Three Trials Union Paid Hoffa Defense 10 Cts. Walker Griffin The proposals were met with a minimum of opposition. What did develop came from Marvin Walker, general manager of the Florida Citrus Canners Cooperative, Lake Wales; Tom McEvoy, general manager of Libby, McNeil and Libby, Ocala, and Ben Hill Griffin Jr. of Ben Hill Griffin, Frostproof.

HOWEVER, NEARLY every objection was swept aside by favorable testimony and industry opinion. As well, the commission voted unanimously in favor of each public hearing subject, a rare instance for the citrus governing body. When Commission Chairman O. D. Huff Jr.

banged his gavel indicating approval of the final quality improvement issue, a chorus of congratulations and expressions of good wishes poured from audience supporters. disclosure sections of the Lan-drum-Griffin law is limited to investigating the use of union funds and to reporting its findings. The department report said the more than half million dollars was used to pay Hoffa's legal fees in trials in Nashville, in 1962; in Chattanooga, in 1964, and in Chicago several months after the Chattanooga trial. The Nashville case involved a charge of accepting more than $1 million in kickbacks from a trucking firm. In Chattanooga, Hoffa was convicted of jury tampering in the Nashville case and was sentenced to eight years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

IN CHICAGO, Hoffa was convicted of fraud in connection with multi-million dollar manipulations of union funds. He was sentenced to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. Both convictions have been appealed by Hoffa. He has contended that the use of union funds to pay his legal fees was a necessary part of his business. 1 mimwm Bonus Page 19A Classified 6F Comics 10B Editorial 2C Financial 6C Movies 16A Obituaries 8B Radio-TV 18A Sports IF Women ID Cracker Jim Sen: Today had oughter another one of them rite purtty uns.

PETITIONS in support of the Viet Nam war were being circulated on many college and university campuses, in some cases the same ones at which pacifist rallies had been held. At Yale University student leaders issued a leaflet calling for a mass meeting Thursday and stated, "We feel that there is little support at Yale for groups which have attempted to impede troop movements and encourage students to obstruct the draft."

Girl Reporter Convinced By Walt Disney By EMILY BAVAR Florid Magazine Editor Orange County's mystery industry site may turn out to be an aircraft testing ground, an electronics research center or even a washing machine factory. But I predict nothing so mundane for the mystery site. I PREDICT it will be an extension of Walt Disney's magic empire of fiction, fantasy and enormous wealth. In sticking out my neck with such Indifference to caution, I'll go even farther and say the ultimate plan for the spread of acreage is something that could be hatched only in the fertile Disney imagination; that it will be worth watching and waiting for.

Before elaborating let's make it clear I have talked to no one connected with the sale of the property. THIS INCLUDES real estate brokers Nelson Boyce of Florida Ranchlands, Orlando, and Roy Hawkins, Miami, who handled the sale, and Paul L. E. Helliwell, Miami attorney representing the purchaser. I have talked only to Walt Disney who, as I reported Sunday from California, did not say he had bought the property.

But neither did he say he had NOT bought it. IN HIS PLUSH, studio offices in Burbank, Walt Disney did not confirm nor deny purchase of the Central Florida land and he adroitly hedged direct questions concerning it. Whoever bought the land will announce it in time, he observed. Did Disney know who had bought the land? WELL, YOU hear a lot of rumors. As a matter of fact, he had heard that he himself had bought it.

When he had had enough of the questioning he courteously explained that announcements of such magnitude must follow established corporate procedure and come from a board of directors.
