Food Destroyed
protest: by women At the last meeting of the Hutt Valley Women’s Citizen Guild an article was read from the Christchurch branch of the National Council of Women, entitled “The Food Scandal,” which showed that food was still being destroyed in some parts of the world while people starved. Grain was being burnt in Argentina, tons of potatoes destroyed in the United States, etc. The Guild was informed that the International Food Board at Washington, United States, was responsible for the distribution of . food, and wondered why this surplus was not distributed to the starving millions in need. It would seem that with proper distribution no one should want and there should be no need for rationing. A --=^=-=.
