Friday March 8, Monday March 11 9am to 5 pm by Tom O'Toole Man can perhpas for a while do without wood, copper and even oil, but he cannot do without food. Human beings have to eat every day. If they have a choice in the use of resources, they have none when it comes to eating. During 1973s the main agricultural products became scarcer on international markets because of droughts in the USSR and over large areas of Asia and Africa. The result was a substantial rise in food prices, especially for wheat, rice and vegetables. This price inflation is strongly felt by the U.S. housewife and a great deal more so by housewives in developing countries. A shortage on this scale points up again the importance of planning in the use of national resources: when shortages oc- cur, particularly of foodstuffs, the citizens of all countriesare affected. The problem of food resour- ces is not new. For centuries, endemic mil-nutrition and successive famines have deci- mated the populations of various parts of the world. What is new is that people have developed a conscience about the problem, and no longer accept that millions of fellow human beings should suffer and die of starvation while they themselves live surrounded by plenty. For a generation there have been massive transfers of cereals and other food products from countries with the highest production to the countries with pressing needs, largely as outright gifts. Quickly one remembers the old Chinese proverb: "Give a man a fish and he can eat for a day; teach him to fish and he can feed himself for the rest of his life." It is on this principle that there has been an effort to encourage the expansion of agriculture in the developing countries by supplying seeds, fertilizers, agricultural machinery, and so on. In recent years the most significant international initiative in this area was the establishment of a series of international agricultural research institutes located in various parts of the world, specializing in crops appropriate to the soil and climate of the area: wheat and corn in Mexico, rice in the Philippines, tropical agriculture in Columbia, the agriculture of the For those of you who don't know we are now here to serve you.

All these efforts, however, are inadequate in the face of droughts, floods and other dis- asters-and especially in the face of accelerated growth of the world's population which each year produces eighty million more mouths to feed. The outlook for the years to come seems somber. Production of basic foodstuffs is limited whiiedemandconstantly rises. Ultimately, it is a race between food production and demand. To win the race, should we reduce population growth or increase food production? There is no unequivocal answer. Both actions are necessary, since we know it will take at least a generation before the family planning policies now being-implemented have an impact on population growth rates. Meanwhile, the world's population will have doubled ( an increase of more than three and a half billion) and food need will have grown at a still greater rate with the rising world standards of living. The threat of food shortage may and should lead to the formulation of policies providing for access to these resources and their use by large numbers of people. We must also diversify and increase me sources of production. I think, for example, of cultivation of the sea: well-planned research in. certain regions and on certain species could probably double the fish resources available for consumption. Concentration on developing agricultural production in the so-called "Third World" countries, where most of the population increase is occuring, would also gradually reduce their dependence on imported food. Such measures, along with education in nutrition and a population planning policy, would enable many societies to maintain a balance between population and food production. Finally, the establishment of world food reserves to cope with poor harvests or natural disasters would provide a margin of safety. These are some of the questions to which the CIRUNA symposium, "The World Food Crisis" will address itself this Spring (April 2, 3 and 4). There is now a universal awareness that access to essential resources is not only limited, but also threatened by population increase and the unrestrained growth of consumption in our industrial society. The prospects incline me to believe that more than mere "men and women of goodwill" are needed to redress the balance, plan the use of the world's resources, and alter the patterns of consumption. What is needed are "governments of goodwill". Development plans must be urgently revised, both in developing and in our own developed society. A change in our way of life is being imposed upon us by outside forces. Collectively, we are still capable of choosing the shape of tomorrow's society.

A change in our way of life is being imposed upon us by outside forces. Collectively, we are still capable of choosing the shape of tomorrow's society. Two studies conducted under the auspices of the Club of Rome produced the following alarm signal in 1971: "Growth must be halted:" The problem-if not every solution- has been validly stated. The circumstances surrounding the energy crisis and the food crisis have made us aware that we can no longer rely on growth to cure all ills.
