Area Growers Favor Sugar Quota Extension CLEWISTON Mainland sugar interests plan to go along with an administration proposal to extend sugar quotas for an additional six months, it was stated here Monday by Harry T. Vaughn president of the United States Sugar Corp. In the meantime, mainland interests will have time to regroup their forces and attempt to influence Congress to pass new legi slation that will assure a permanent increase in marketing quotas. Vaughn said his Washington informant stated the agricultural committee headed by Rep. Harold D.

Cooley, would meet again this morning in an open session. It is possible, the U.S. Sugar head continued, that Secretary of Agriculture Orville Freeman, who visited the Glades area last Friday, will testify at that time. Following the meeting that is open to the general public, an executive session of the legislators is on tab, Vaughn was told.

last week. He made the stopover at the nearby mill while en route to Miami Beach to address the annual convention of the Florida Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association. the apparent unwillingness of the sugar beet growers to cooperate with the sugar cane growers. The acceptance of the administration proposal, from all indications, will give the mainland Florida and Louisiana growers time to get an early start on working for a new sugar act that will be acceptable to the new Congress. Vaughn said there was still no plan that will help At that time, the secretary told the large crowd he and the President were in favor of legislation that will ease the pressure on the sugar cane growers and producers.

Congress, Freeman emphasized, is not willing to go along with a new plan at this time. Cooley asked all segments of the sugar industry to support the administration plan without change for an additional six months. When the request was made last Friday, Vaughn said the mainland interests would have a statement Monday after the officials had time to confer via telephone. The local resident saidTe had been in contact with the various concerns and would remain in close contact with the situation although he would remain at his local office. Tuesday, Sept.
