Mr. Speaker. Senate Joint Resolution 174 designates October 16. 1982. as "World Food Day." Hunger and chronic malnutrition remain daily facts of life for hundreds of millions of people throughout the world. and the children of the world are those who suffer the most. Although progress has been made in reducing the incidence of hunger and malnutrition in the United States. certain groups such as migrant workers. the elderly. and children remain vulnerable to malnutrition and related diseases. efforts to resolve the world hunger problems are critical to the security of the United States and the international community. I urge the passage of this resolution.
