Food conference urged to make governments responsible
A Hot Springs Virginia report states a United Nations food conference urged governments to accept responsibility for diet deficiencies among low income and undernourished people. The committee recommended international measures to aid food distribution and improve standards, including family allowances, social insurance, minimum wages, free or low cost protective foods, and targeted aid for pregnant women, mothers, infants, children, the elderly, and invalids. It cautioned expanding food production while raising national standards and addressing distribution flaws to reduce famine risk.
