The action resulted from a rul
ing earlier this month by Circuit

sick without the required certi

Iran Launches Plan
To Bolster Economy
San Francisco (U.R) The
Shah of Iran told a press con
ference Friday that his country
has .launched a $1,000,000,000
"seven year plan", to revitalize
its lagging economy, and is look
ins for orivate American invest
ment to aid the program.
Shah Mohammed Reza Pahleyi
told newsmen the most import
ant part of his current U. S. tour
was to encourage private Ameri
can investment to make up the
deficit that oil royalties will not
be able to provide during the"
first few years of the plan.
The Iranian monarch said the
recent anglo-Iranian oil settle
ment would eive his nation an
annual income of about .150 mil
lion dollars, but he said part
of these royalties were earmark
ed for other official : expendi
tures.
The seven year plan, he said,
is expectea to be tne -turning
point" in Iran's long history, and
private capital investment in the
country "would be profitable for
both sides."
The shah said he and his beau
tiful empress Soraya would go to
Los Angeles on the 24th and then
to Sun Valley, Idaho, for skiing.

Sharing St

U.S. Surpluses
Urged by Group
New York America's farm
surpluses, which now cost the
nation $256,000,000 a year in
storage bills, could be brought
to the free world's hungry peo
ples at a cost of a nickel a day
for each person given full feed
ings i- . v:
If used to add 500 calories a
day- to .the food supplies of the
many peoples whose diets are
seriously deficient by . that
amount, the cost would be two
cents per person or less.
; Those figures are cited in a
survey issued by 16 leading U.
S. businessmen, members of the
National Advisory Committee
for CARE,' who urge a worldwide-
"food crusade" to distribute
surpluses ; as a ; major arm of
American diplomacy.
Famine, Surpluses Compared
Entitled "Feast and Famine,"
the survey contrasts the facts of
world hunger against the U.S.
government's current holdings
of nearly; $6,000,000,000 worth
OJ edible surpluses, or 26.000,
000 gross tons of foods. The an
nual storage expense, it notes,
is "four times the cost of running
our Congress."
Cost estimates for foreign dis
tribution, including processing
and shipping, are based ,on re
cent CARE experiences. Pilot
project for the global crusade,
the : Committee points out, 5
CARE's Christmas appeal . to
Americans to donate $1 to send
two, packages of surplus food to
needy, families abroad.
