US Plans to Help World Feed Itself
How to feed the world until it can feed itself is one of the major problems confronting the United States today.
Two men deeply concerned in relieving the starvation so tragically a part of Nazi occupation have been talking recently to congress, and both recognize the urgency of the need for assistance. They are our 31st and 32nd presidents.
In his food message to Congress, President Roosevelt hit at the idea that this country single-handed would undertake to feed the world. A certain small percentage of our food will go to feed the occupied countries when the United Nations have liberated them, the President pointed out, but emphasis will be placed on helping the countries feed themselves.
This plan has worked successfully in French North Africa, where aid in expanding agricultural production enables that section not only to care for itself completely, but substantially to help the Italian campaign with its food supplies.
Such a plan was advocated earlier in the year by Herbert Lehman, director of the United States' foreign relief and rehabilitation operations, who is expected to be chosen director general of the new United Nations relief organization at the conference scheduled for next week. Only by concerted effort on the part of each United Nation can the millions of starving men, women, and children in Europe be fed, Lehman had said.
Herbert Hoover, who probably understands foreign relief better than anyone else in this country, testified before the senate foreign relations subcommittee that the need of hungry children and adults of the Axis-held peoples is reaching a peak. In addition to helping the starving countries themselves, food would mean a reception of Allied troops impossible in an area where the population is starving. Hoover said in pointing out the military as well as humanitarian values of expedient aid.
There is not much danger of materially helping the enemy with our food, Hoover said. Experience in Greece has shown that the Germans live up to their part of the agreement, and the loss through damage and theft to food packages sent to Allied prisoners in Germany amounts to less than one-sixth of one per cent.

Showing the advantages of more aggressive tactics: After having beer posted on the Corbin hall bulletin board for several weeks a plaintive letter from some former KU soldier has reached its destination. Many Corbin girls would like to have claimed the posted epistle which began "To that beautiful Corbin hal blonde with whom I shared the las
dance at the Jayhawk Nibble," but none could until at long last Mary Kay Parker noticed the note.
The would-be-romance is, however, just another case of too little, too late. The soldier of the Nibble is now in Little Rock, Ark.
They call him "deadman": It is doubtful that Thomas Cecilefield of

Carruth will ever live doyn his behavior on a certain recent date with a Corbin girl. Tom took the girl down to the house of some friends on Louisiana to visit. They were sitting on the porch swing alone—Tom and the girl—and Tom went to sleep. Closing hours drew near, but as the story goes, Tom slept on. Finally after futile attempts to arouse him, the girl walked herself home to Corbin.

What, again? : When the Alpha Chi freshmen walked back in after walking out, they were indirectly accompanied by their escorts of the evening, Sigma Nu pledges, Kappa Sig pledges, and other miscellaneous males. Instead of the front door, however, the boys picked an upstairs window and ran through second down to the living room. Although this sort of thing is becoming somewhat customary on the Hill it was still too much for Barbara Brundage and Margaret Fessler. Barbar fainted and Margaret was knocked cold by a blow on the head.
