The Secretary of Agriculture may establish in the Department of
Agriculture a National Dairy Research Endowment Institute whose function

dairy products research order, which its board of trustees shall
administer, and the use of monies made available to its board of
trustees from the Dairy Research Trust Fund to implement the order. In
implementing the order, the Institute shall provide a permanent system
for funding scientific research activities designed to facilitate the
expansion of markets for milk and dairy products marketed in the United
States. The Institute shall be headed by a board of trustees composed of
the members of the National Dairy Promotion and Research Board. The
board may appoint from among its members an executive committee whose
membership shall reflect equally each of the different regions in the
United States in which milk is produced. The executive committee shall
have such duties and powers as are delegated to it by the board. The
members of the board shall serve without compensation. While away from
their homes or regular places of business in the performance of services
for the board, members of the board shall be allowed reasonable travel
expenses, including a per diem allowance in lieu of subsistence, as
recommended by the board and approved by the Secretary, except that
there shall be no duplication of payment for such expenses.
