FARMERS’ CONFERENCE
WORLD FOOD PROBLEMS LONDON. May 17. ’ Arising from the six months' tour of New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and the United States by the British farmers delegation, an international conference is being convened in London in October^ -at which world food problems will be discussed, says The Times. The delegation, reporting to the National Farmers’ Union, states that each overseas conference which the delegation attended emphasised that the solution to more equitable distribution of the world's food resources lay in international co-opera-tion. and if the ideal of the Hot Springs Conference was to enter the realm of practical politics the Governments must have behind them the service, co-operation, and advice of organised agriculture. One of the delegation’s most important discoveries was the desire of farmers everywhere to have the Hot Springs findings implemented by their Governments-. The forthcoming conference will discuss the constitution of the proposed international federation of farm organisations.
