The Health Department was very coopera tive and the regulation which goes into final effect July 1968, will permit both USDA and state identified pasteurized products of equal quality Ed Murphy of Diamond Na tional reported on the Federal Food & Drug regulation relating to carton changes effective July 1968 He stated that preliminary work had been done effectively by others and he had been in contact with Washington to ob tain proper consideration. “Dr. Kirk substituting for Dr. God dard in Kansas City, at the Fact Finding Conference gave audi ence to a few industry leaders and Mr. Murphy to discuss the problems associated with the drastic changes that would have to be made ” “Dr. Kirk was co operative and because the As sociated Egg & Poultry Indus tries agreed to petition Food & Drug to exempt eggs.
