American Farmers Are
Growing Enough Food
Many folks seem to think
Federal farm programs are
responsible somehow for people
going hungry, but this just isn’t
so, said Ross P. Bowen, Ch
airman of the Georgia State
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation (ASC) Committee.
American farmers grow an
ample supply of food for the
Nation. The food industry amply
sotkcs the grocery shelves with
enough for everyone.
The ACS Committee Chair
man expressed concern about
public misunderstanding of the
situation and drew attention to a
recent speech by Secretary of
Agriculture Clifford M. Hardin
describing the true reasons for
the problem of malnutrition.
Mr. Hardin said: “The paradox
of malnutrition in the United
States is that it exists in the
midst of plenty. Our farmers
produce the food industry
channels into the Nation’s re
tail outlets more than enough
food to supply a good diet for
all our people. The problem is
that millions of americans do
not have purchasing power to
buy enough food to satisfy their
nutritional needs. In addition,
millions lack the knowledge of
food buying, food preparation,
and nutritional requirements
which would enable them to im
prove their diets.”
Secretary Hardin explained
that the proposed revision of
the food stamp program would
provide enough food stamps to
poor families so they could buy
a nutritionally complete diet.
Food stamps would be provided
at no cost to those in the lowest
income brackets and at a cost
no greater than 30 percent of
income for others.
The intent is to gradually ph
ase out direct distribution of
food to the poor and provide
food stamps instead which
would enable low-income fam
ilies to buy food of their choice.
Besides lack of money, lack
of knowledge about good nut
rition is a major cause of mal
nutrition, Mr. Hardin said. The
U.S. Department of Agriculture
has some 5,000 nutrition aides
working in about 700 counties
and cities to help low-income
families with food buying, bud
geting, food preparation and nu
trition education.
Care Food
Crusade
Beginning
The 1969 holiday-season
CARE Food Crusade opened to
day with a goal of raising
$6,650,000, to complete a year
long plan to help feed 35,000,000
people in 36 countries from
Latin America to Africa and
Asia.
Operating support from local
governments and United States’
donations of farm abundance
will multiply the feeding pro
grams to a total value of more
than $73,000,000, it was ann
ounced by Bee H. Brown, So
utheastern Field Director.
The public contributions will
provide 6,650,000 Food Crusade
packages, at $1 each. These
consist of U.S. commodities,
donated after domestic welfare
needs are met, or foods bought
by CARE to match country and
nutritional needs.
Malnourished children will be
the main recipients. Almost
26,000,000 boys and girls will
be fed regularly at preschool
and nutrition centers, primary
schools and other child insti
tutions, to improve their health
and learning ability.
Family aid will also stress
long-range benefits, by en
listing adult members in food
for-work projects to build sch
ools, roads and similar comm
unity resources to help the
needy become self-sufficient. In
addition, emergency assistance
will go to civilian war victims
in South Vietnam and on both
sides of the battle lines in the
Nigeria conflict.
Other operating areas are:
Afghanistan, Algeria, British
Honduras, Ceylon, Chile, Co
lombia, Costa Rica, Dominican
Republic, Ecuador, Greece, Gu
atemala, Haiti, Honduras, Hong
Kong, Macau, India, Indonesia,
Iran, Israel, Jordan, Kenya,
Lesotho, Liberia, Malaysia, Ni
caragua, Pakistan, Panama,
Philippines, Sierra Leone, So
uth Korea, Tunisia, Turkey.
Service is slated to begin soon
in Uganda.
Under the direction of Am
erican staff members stationed
in each area, supplies are de
livered in the name of the Am
erican people. Contributions
may be sent to: CARE Food
Crusade, 615 Forsyth Building,
Atlanta, Georgia 30303.
In addition to a positive po
licy for improving nutrition, ot
her major USDA goals are im
proved farm Income, expanded
markets for agricultural pro
ducts and greater freedom for
farmers in making their own de
cisions.
The development of sound, ef
fective, and acceptable pro
grams for agriculture in the
1970’s requires understanding
on the part of the American pub
lic of agriculture’s problems,
needs, and contributions to the
economy, Mr. Hardin said.
4 H’ers
Meeting
The Council president, Keith
Sewell, called the meeting to
order, Tuesday November 3,
1969 with 19 members present.
Charline Echols lead the co
uncil in a pledge to the Amer

in our National 4-H pledge.
The council secretary-trea
surer, Linda Eubanks, read the
minutes of the previous mee
ting and gave the treasurer’s
report. There were no correc
tions, so the minutes were app
roved as read.
Since there were a few new
members, we all stood up, in
troduced ourselves, told what
office we hold and what club
we were from. Any 4-H’er in
Forsyth County who holds an
office in their local 4-h club
is a member of the “Forsyth
County 4-H Council.”
These members are urged
to attend but any member, wh
ether he holds an office or not,
is welcome to the council mee
tings. The council meets are
every Ist Tuesday of each mon
th. The next meeting will be
December 2, 1969 at 7:30-8:30
in the conference room in the
County Health building. The De
cember meeting will be the most
exciting yet. We are going to
have two demonstrations by Se
nior 4-H council officers. They
will give the Junior 4-H’ers
some pointers on giving talks
and demonstrations. After that
we are going to exchange gifts
and have refreshments. Every
members who attends the meet
ing should bring a gift with the
limit of one dollar. The boys
are going to bring gifts for
other boys and the girls are
going to bring gifts for other
girls. When we get there we
will throw all the gifts under
the tree and then everybody
will grab one. Everyone will
have a gift, even Mrs. Banni
ster and Mr. Rucker.
Next were the committee re
ports.
Linda Eubanks reported on
the Baqued Committee. The
Forsyth County 4-H Council
is going to sponsor a 4-H Ho
nors Banquet January 24, 1970.
This banquet will be for the
4-H members who attended Di
strict Project Achievement this
past summer and their parents.
There will be guest speakers
but most important we’ll have
turkey and dressing.
The President reported on the
District 4—H Rally that he and
a few other 4-H members at
tended in Gainesville a few
weeks ago.
After the refreshments of
cokes and cookies the meeting
was adjourned.
