At such hearing the distributor proceeded against shall be ordered to show cause why the distributor’s license should not be suspended or revoked or continued under such conditions and provisions, if any, as the Director may consider just and proper and for the protection of the best interests of the producer-creditors and producers from whom the distributor has been and is receiving fluid milk or fluid cream.
