It is important to note that up to onequarter of the amount alloted for food aid will be available for inland transportation. which can be difficult in the remote areas. The reserve to be used at the Presidents discretion will ensure that we will not be faced with dry accounts in our emergency food aid program again this year. Finally. the disaster and refugee assistance is also an integral part of this package. Not only are people hungry. but they are cold. sick. and in need of blankets. shelter. medical care. and other types of assistance. I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting this humanitarian bill which will enable the United States to continue to contribute its share to famine relief efforts.
