AP Survey: Nixon Lunch Program Fails to Meet Goal
An Associated Press analysis finds many districts nationwide not meeting the Nixon administration pledge for free or reduced price school lunches by Thanksgiving 1970. Delays, funding gaps, and quota policies leave several hungry children without meals despite federal laws and new funding. Senator George McGovern criticizes the progress, noting 8.9 million kids need free lunches while only 4.1 million are served.
