There is still danger, however, that the beetles may be transported in cut 
flowers. Therefore, the restrictions on interstate movement of cut flowers will 
remain in full force through October 15. 
Restrictions on the movement of nursery, ornamental, and greenhouse stock 
and all other plants (except cut flowers, soil-free aquatic plants, and portions 
of plants without roots and free from soil) are in force throughout the year and 
are not affected by this order.

administrative instructions modifying the restrictions of the japanese 
beetle quarantine by advancing the date of termination of restrictions on 
fruit and vegetable shipments under § 301.48 of the japanese beetle 
quarantine to september 9 for the year 1942 
It has been determined that the active period of the Japanese beetle in its 
relation to fruits and vegetables has already ceased for the present season and 
that it is therefore safe to permit the unrestricted movement of fruits and 
vegetables from the regulated areas. Therefore, pursuant to the authority con- 
ferred upon the Chief of the Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine by 
the fourth proviso of § 301.48, Chapter III, Title 7, Code of Federal Regulations 
[Notice of Quarantine No. 48 on account of Japanese beetle], it is ordered 
that the restrictions on the interstate movement of fruits and vegetables im- 
posed by § 301.48-5 of Notice of Quarantine No. 48, revised effective March 24, 
1942, be removed effective on and after September 9, 1942. This order advances 
the termination of the restrictions as to fruits and vegetables provided for in 
§ 301.48-5 from October 16 to September 9, 1942, and applies to this season only.
