That 10.000 tons of food is certainly a step in the right direction. Mr. President. but the fact of the matter is that an estimated 165.000 tons will be needed between now and 6 months from now. There is an additional $15 million available for the purchase of food in the Food for Peace Program. The total of $20 million. the $15 million left and the $5 million the President has obligated. could be used to buy 45.500 metric tons of rice or 125.000 metric tons of wheat. Additional money for transportation of food could be furnished by the Disaster Relief Fund and the Refugee and Migration Assistance Fund. Mr. President.
