While the desperate struggle
goes on all over the world to feed
starving millions this winter, UN-
RRA and the stricken countries
are fighting just as desperately to
grow a big enough crop for next
winter's needs, And far beyond
that, the Farm and Agricultural
Organization is taking shape under
its new Director -General, Sir John
Orr,

present food crisis but its damage
to the world's agriculture indus-
try will be felt for years. The job
of agricultural rehabilitation is
staggering.

tractors, seeds, horses, nudes, cows,
and fertilizer .into occupied; coun-
tries to help agricultural produc-
tion. Lack of funds has forced it
to give up much of the agricultural
rehabilitation program in 'lieu of
supplying food directly.
In addition UNRRA experts are
trying to eliminate certain insect
pects which increased during the
war and spread disease among cat -
tie and crops. They plan to bring
in chickens to restock almost non-
existent poultry stocks.
