FAC Starts 1C-Year Plan
To Expand Food Output
BY the Asseeiated Press

ROME, Nov. 23.-Three working
commissions Of the Food and Ag-
ricultural Organization began
a 10-year program today
for the greatest increase in food
production the world has ever un-
dertaken.
Outline of the plan was laid
down by Norris E. Dodd, director
general of the FAC. He told dele
gates from 10 nations world food
output must be increased from
g to 4 per cent every year for the
next 10 years.
That would equal the recent
rate Of industrial expansion in the
world. But while industry has
been expanding 3 to 4 per cent a
year, agricultural increase has
been barely l per cent. and has
Jagged behind the worlds rate Of
population increase.
Working Commission I had be.
fore it the broad problems Of in
Iternational CO. operation tha t
would be required to achieve such
an increase; Commission II was
working on specific assistance pro-
grams, country by country. Com
mission III was concerned with
the financing of the whole pro-
gram.
