Report on Greek famine deaths and farm programs
A New York report cites 400000 starving in Greece due to occupation, with battles, homelessness, and heavy casualties. The piece quotes Nicholas Lely outlining Greece information in US, plus Dewey endorsing a broad national rural program including roads, electrification, soil and water conservation, irrigation, and a stabilized farm sector linked to urban prosperity. He argues for strong federal leadership to end price fluctuations and ensure well fed citizens through a comprehensive agricultural plan rather than relief-only support.
