Whereas, The Secretary of Agricul ture, on February 3, 1942, held a public hearing at San Juan, Puerto Rico, for the purpose of receiving evidence likely to be of assistance to him in determin ing fair and reasonable prices for the 1941-1942 crop of Puerto Rican sugar cane:
.Now, therefore, I, Claude R.

the Sugar Act of 1937, as amended, shall be as follows:
a When payment for sugarcane de livered to a producer-processor is made by actual delivery of sugar to the pro ducer colono on the basis of a stated percentage of 96 raw sugar recoverable from the producers sugarcane, such per centage shall be the same as for the 19401941 crop, calculated in accordance with the formula given below, except that in no event shall it be less than 63% of the recoverable sugar packed in the custom ary bags determined in accordance with the formula given below, and except, fur ther, that sUch recoverable sugar shall be calculated fortnightly or monthly, as may be agreed upon between the pro ducer and the producer-processor:
R = S 0.3B F

R=Recoverable sugar yield, 96 polari zation.
S Polarization of the crusher juice ob tained from the sugarcane of each producer.
B = Brix of the crusher juice obtained from the sugarcane of each pro ducer.
F=Factor obtained from the fraction whose numerator is the average yield of sugar 96 polarization ob tained from the aggregate grind ing during each fortnight or month in which the cane of the producer is ground, and whose denominator is the average polarization of the % crusher juice minus three-tenths of the Brix of the crusher juice, both components of the denom inator being obtained from the ag gregate grinding during the fortnight or month in which the cane of the producer has been ground:
Provided, however, That in the event a mill has been using the formula set forth below to calculate the sugar recoverable from the cane ground during the 19411942 crop year, such formula may be used
