Maryland lunch program criticized for under serving poor children
Susan Tippett, president of the Maryland Food Committee, testified before a Washington subcommittee that fewer than half of eligible Maryland children receive free school lunches. An estimated 168,000 youngsters qualify, yet about 80,000 do not receive benefits. She cited cafeterias lacking capacity, illiterate parents, and complex forms as causes, and criticized state budgeting as based on past performance rather than current need. The committee noted Eleanor Weagley is on vacation.
