Self-help For 1,125,000 Asiatics
MANILA, Sun. (11 a.m.) —There is little likelihood of a Marshall Plan for Asia emerging from the meeting, said Mr T. F. Tsiang (China), chairman of the United Nations Economic Commission for Asia, which is conferring at Baguio tomorrow to consider a relief and self-help programme for 1,125.000,000 Asiatics.
New Zealand and Australia are among the 11 nations, including Britain, the United States and Russia, which have a vote at the conference.
The main question before the delegates is the problem of sharing available food within Asia’s borders, and getting it transported from surplus to deficit areas.
