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 ican Fla. Walter Rucker Jr. lead us 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.

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.
