Supposedly the additional bulgur will be used to assist Montagnard tribesmen in rice deficient areas and to provide processed wheat to Vietnamese and government institutions. I have asked Director Hannah to assure the Congress and the American people that the shipment of 7.000 tons of wheat will feed hungry human beings. not pigs and cattle. The concept of the food for peace program is to provide assistance to hungry refugees and war victims. It is a sound concept. But the reality of Vietnam and the terrible conflict there has perverted our food for peace program into a corrupt system that provides money for merchants. feed for pigs. and not enough help for the innocent victims of the Indochina war.
