are crazy. I feel sorry for them. I need this program and I'm
glad, so very glad, it's on.

It is a more appropriate set for the information you are
giving.
I approve and acknowledge the improvement. It is a
classy set--not gaudy like the "hallelujah half-wits.

I'm a
field general. Somebody has done a very good job designing the
set. It has quality of intellect. Very much quality.

Wonderful new set. You are always outstanding. The set. lends
more credibility to the program.
New York
I enjoyed the new format, the stage was so different.
The
program is very informative--right from the Bible. I will be
talking to one of your ministers soon.
I have several
questions and my life has been turned around.

I thought it was terrific! The new set
is
great!! If someone
was to turn on the telecast not knowing what they were tuning
in
to, the1

would think it was the news. I think the set
is
keeping up with the times.

This is the first time the program actually caught my
attention.
I've picked up "The Plain Truth" before and it
mentioned the program, but this is the first time I've ever sat
down and watched it.
Indiana
I didn't think the program would survive after Mr. Armstrong
died, but it is great. I helong to the Catholic faith, but I
have learned a great deal more while I'm now
in
my 50s from
reading the booklets and watching the best religious program on
TV. That's what I think.

WORLD FOOD OUTLOOK--FAMINE IN AFRICA, GLUT ELSEWHERE
Africa:
Locusts Set to March
By all accounts the 1984-85 famine in
j
Africa was the worst in the continent's history. ·According to reliable
reports two million people died, half of them in Ethiopia. In comparison,
a million Ibos perished from famine in Nigeria
in
the late 1960s, a
complication of that country's bloody civil war.
Between 100,000 and
.
300,000 Africans starved to death during the famine in the Sahel over a
decade ago.
