The government contends a dye used by Texas and Florida growers to color the orange skins orange is poisonous. But attorneys for Florida citrus growers told the court Monday that their industry will face “economic i. disaster” if barred from using a limited amount 6f the dye. They said the public just won't buy oranges with greenish skin, the natural color of many ripe oranges. ’ The Health Education and Welfare Department contended that the dye should be banned completely. The dye, a coal-tar product called "red-32.” was originally approved by the government as for use in food.' After later experiments with animals, the department removed the substance from the approved color list in 1955. Then Congress passed a special law the following year permitting its use in coloring Florida land Texas oranges until next March 1. ,. „
