Food stamp eligibility wide but access lagging in U S
Senate report says as many as 20 million Americans eligible for federal food stamps are not getting them due to Agriculture Department policies. Only 38 percent of eligible individuals received stamps in 1973, down from 52 percent in 1972, with 17.9 million currently on the program and 20 million more eligible. The panel urges streamlined forms and wider distribution of applications through post offices and banks.
