First commercial shipments OF
Valley citrus fruit to Europe will
probably be made during the COM
ing season, according TO informa-
Lion given out here BY Fred G.
Rogers, assistant district manager
of the United States Bureau OF
Foreign and Domestic Commerce
at Houston.
Mr.. Rogers spent several days
this week IN the Valley. comforting
with chamber OF commerce Secre-
taries and citrus fruit growers and
shippers.
Preparations Made
In talking over the situation with
officers OF the Brownsville Cham
Der OF Commerce he told Of prep
arations being made BY William
Pagen. secretary OF the Maritime
association Of the port OF Corpus
Christi, to act as broker in ship
ping Valley citrus fruit 10 Europe
during the coming season.
Pagen has conferred with the
operators OF boats. anC said that
he has arranged for a boat to come
10 Corpus Christi if as much as
5000 boxes Of Valley citrus fruit
can be secured. This amount will
probably be secured, Mr.. Rogers
said.
Although several shipments OF
Valley citrus TO Europe have been
made in the past, they were all
small, experimental shipments. and
this will be the first commercial bid
for markets in Europe.
There are plenty OF trade op-
p~ortunities for Texas citrus fruit
in Europe Mr.. Rogers said.
For the past two years our
department E-s been doing investi-
cation work in Paris. London. Berlin
and other parts Of Europ,, and has
found that there Is a growing mar
ket for grapefruit-and for Texas
grapefruit IN particular.
Valley Should Move
In m. opinion the Valley should
take steps at once ID reach these
markets with fruit, and TO hold
them and enlarge them, preparing
for the time when this section will
have large quantities Of citrus
available for export
Mr.. Rogers was considerably in
terested in the Brownsville deep
water port project. and said in his
opinion Brownsville will become an
important shipping center for
periShables, as well for cotton,
and produce from and TO Mexico
when this deep water port is COM
pleted.
He discounted the idea prevalent
in many sections that the Valleys
green produce would not move out
by water.
"A deep water port at Browns
vile Will open many new markets
for your vegetables he said. IL
think Of one noW-the commits
sarieS In the Panama Canal zone.
These comnIissaries supply 5000
ships every year with fresh fruits
and vegetables, and there Is no
reason why the Valley should not
supply part Of that market
Cooperation Urged
Cooperation OF Valley citrus in
terests was urged BY he visitor.
One thing you need Is some
literature or citrus Mr.. Rogers
said Some OF this distributed now
in Europe would help stimulate
mor1 markets for your fruit"
Mr.. Rogers left Brownsville
Thursday for points up the Valley.
He planned 10 confer with Davis
Wade at san Benito. u. f. S avely

lev Experiment station. and with
John Shary az Mission, 70 get in
