![["A group of Senators have filed a resolution to extend the life of a committee investigating hunger in the United States, as scattered accounts indicate a need for action. Dr. Arnold E. Schaefer's testimony revealed instances of hunger, malnutrition, and starvation in low-income areas. The government must explore the extent of undernourishment at home and make more food available to those in need. Some policies have perpetuated scarcity to keep farm prices high, while programs like the school lunch program have been influenced by national agricultural policy. The National Sharecroppers Fund recommends a reorientation of farm and food assistance programs to support smaller farmers and provide food for the hungry. Further investigation and change are needed to address the issue of hunger in America."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Helen%20Gahagan%20Douglas%20Collection/CAC_CC_014_8.12_9_53_0000-National%20Advisory%20Committee%20on%20Farm%20Labor,%201960-1969/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_014_8.12_9_53_0007_thumbnail.jpg "Reminder of Joint NSF-NACFL Committee meeting to discuss activities, finances.")
