Mr. President. continuing disorders in Pakistan have left an estimated 200.000 people dead. created more than 6 million refugees. and severely reduced the prospects for a fall harvest adequate to meet the needs of the people of East Pakistan. The spectre of a mass starvation in East Pakistan. far exceeding the death toll of Biafra. may become a grim reality this fall. This massive loss of life is made all the more tragic because it can be prevented. In a world with surplus food. death by starvation due to political disputes is the ultimate obscenity perpetrated by man upon man.
