     Hunger is an issue which many people think lies little importance.  Im
going to give you a look at World Hunger as a Picture of Poverty, how it affects
Third World Nations, and How World Hunger is a disease that is plaguing our
society.
     "Food is more than a trade commodity," pleaded Sir John Boydorr in 1946.
"It is an essential to life."  The first director-general of the new Food and

people's outlook on life and on people in a major way.  People who are denied
