New US. Program

From’ Washington comes word |

that the United States is about to em- bark on a revolutionary new Food for Peace {program—or Food for Freedom as President Johnson pre- fers to call it.The present program chad its origin in 1955 and was fin- *‘ anced, at that time, by a three-year, billion dollar authorization. For a. long time, it was actually a surplus- disposal program. Only in fairly re- cent years has it been linked with foreign policy. Now it is. proposed to abandon the surplus-disposal idea al- together—even-should there be any surpluses.

Instead, the United States will_ plan for and grow the necessary sup- plies. Also, it will require nations re- ceiving supplies under the new pro- gram. to give evidence of. plans.or. in-- tention to develop their own food production. They must meet this re- quirement to be eligible not only for: food but for technical-assistance and other types of economic aid.

Behind this hard-fisted rule is the ‘spectre of world famine in the future unless food-deficient nations begin to grow their own more abundantly. But

—on-the-home-front.-thenew_concept. of food aid will pose gargantuan dif- | ficulties. Decisions by U.S. farmers and program administrators must be | geared to domestic and foreign mark- ets and to food aid needs as far as 30 months ahead. It will be the respon- sibility of the Secretary of Agricul- | ture to establish acreage allotments that will take into account these fac- tors—as best he can, that is, in view of shifting needs and the unpredic- tability of growing conditions.

Child With |" -clamig

‘By Dr, Theodore R. Van Dellen Should a child with a serious ailment such as acute leukemia be told the truth about his con- dition? This is a moot question, but there is no harm in being truthful about the diagnosis with out delving into the outcome. Leave the latter to the physic- ian who is : better prepared emotionally. The older child with acute leu- kemia knows something is wrong because he sees the. phy- sician frequently, takes special medicine, senses the concern of his parents. and overhears state- ments regarding his health. In addition he has something that makes him different from his playmates. -Despite this, most ‘youngsters remain relatively | hopeful. The younger child may lask a few question which _ |should be answered but the par- jents should not initiate the dis- | cussion. | The most difficult task con- \fronting a physician is to tell parents that their child has an jJincurable disease.
