But it did not take 2 weeks for him to assess the situation in Yemales. He took action. I received a call from him this morning. and he told me that the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees received. on April 10. over 30 days ago. almost 10.000 pounds of rice. almost 10.000 pounds of beans. almost 16.000 pounds of cornmeal. almost 17.000 pounds of powdered milk. and a number of other items in bulk. He went on to say. and I repeat. that none of it has been distributed to date. And they have been promised. even though they have not received it. 3 / ounces of rice a day. AID has calculated per person caloric requirements ranging from 2.200 calories per day for a woman to 3.500 calories per day for an active man. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees allowances come nowhere near these requirements. For example. AID calculated that 8 ounces of beans per day would be required. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees will allot they say. in the future. only 2.3 ounces. But the food has not be allotted. For some reason that this Senator cannot determine. the food is being withheld.
