singing has no place IN q CO.
operative marketing organization

particularly not in an organization
in the Lower Rio Grande Valley.
John N. (Jack) Hager, general
manager OF the Rio Grande Valley
Citrus Exchange, told newspaper
men Friday In his first interview
since being named Exchange man
ager on July Q.
You can say" Hager told re-
porterS. that the Rio Grande VAL
ley Citrus Exchange will not en-
gage IN 'mud-Slinging programs
henceforth and that everybody in
the citrus deal can run their bust
ness in their own way as far as
the Exchange is concerned"
Hager came 70 the Valley several
months ago from California where
he has had many years OF expert
ence in the citrus industry. He
has been connected with the Ex-
change since coming to this section
end succeeded r. r. Miller Is gen.
eral manager Of the cooperative.
largest Of its kind III the Valley. He
has been connected with cooper
alive agricultural organizations for
the past % years.
Hager'S statement was made in
response to questions concerning
the Exchanges attitude during the
coming months toward other CO.
operative organizations IN the VAL
ley and toward independent citrus
shippers. I'VE have hopes OF max
ing some new alignments, of
course" Hager said. but these
things will develop gradually. As
20 a wholesale mercer OF Valley
citrus co-operatives, / don't know
anything about plans for such an
Arrangement. I doubt that plans
as such have been made. The Ex-
change expects 10 lok after its own
affairs. and let others look after
theirs"
Several changes have been made
within the organization of the Ex-
change during the past few weeks.
G. O.. Miles Of Progreso, secretary
Of the Exchange since its organiza-
ton three years ago. resigned early
this year and Is now connected
with a Chicago bond house. He led
q determined campaign against
cash buyers Of Valley fruit in an
effort To centralize control OF VAL

attempting In this way to improve
marketing conditions and prices.
Miller has been general manager
