'To Win the Fight Against World Starvation' <em>Reader's Digest</em> article
Food relief, American -- India.
United States. Congress. House. Committee on Agriculture.
India.
This article raises many questions and contentions with the United States' foreign aid and Food for Peace programs. It argues that these programs are not producing the intended results and require major revision to bring about change in the countries that abuse and rely too heavily on American agriculture and financial aid. The author believes that the Food for Peace program can work, but Congress needs to enforce the program's intentions and hold countries to their promises to develop their own agricultural programs.

Joint letter to Secretary of Agriculture Orville Freeman from the Congressional Delegation to India
Food relief, American -- India.
United States. Congress. House. Committee on Agriculture.
India.
In this letter, Congressmen W. R. Poage and Robert J. Dole and Senator Jack Miller describe their trip to India and urge the Secretary of Agriculture to consider a donation of 1.8 million tons of grain to India. They argue that the donation should be based on emergency drought relief; the donation should be distributed free to needy persons; and the announcement should express the hope of the U.S. that the U.S.S.R. and other countries would join the relief effort.
