SCHOOL LUNCHES
FOR NEGRO KIDS
This smiling lad is enjoying a nutri
tious noontime meal as a result of a
School Lunch Program sponsored by
his local community in cooperation
with the War Food Administration.
Last year close to one million Negro
children participated in the program
and at least as many are looking for*
ward to it again this year.
SCHOOL LUNCHES CHALK
UP RECORDS FOR NEGRO
CHILDREN.
Thousands of community school
lunch programs will begin their 10th
year of operation next month, again
assuring many Negro school children
of nourishing, appetizing noon meals,
E. O. Pollock, Regional Director,
Midwest Office of Distribution, W
FA, said.
This program, originally enlisting
Federal assistance in its capacity as
an outlet for surplus farm produce,
has deevloped into a Nation-wide
feeding project designed not only to
widen ^farmers’ markets but to im
prove the health of America’s school
children. Children attending schools
participating in the program are giv
en tasty, nutritious meals at school
for a very small charge, or free if
they can’t pay, and this meal, valuable
in itself, often leads to better-plan
ned meals at home, Mr. Pollock ex
plained.
teachers have reported that child
ren having access to community
school lunches have gained weight,
chalked up a record of better school
attendance, and earned better marks.
Community school lunch programs
are sponsored jointly by local schools
and various civic, social, professional
and church organizations throughout
the country. Federal assistance in
providing school lunches may be ob
tained by this group for any public
or non-profit private school of high
school level or lower. The local spon
soring group must arrange to pur
chase and help pay for the food used
in the lunches and obtain the labor
and facilities needed to prepare and
serve it. The WFA reimburses the
sponsor for part of the actual cost
of the food purchased locally, and in
addition, may distribute certain a
bundant foods, such as potatoes, eggs,
and cabbage which it has purchased
in supporting farm prices. The ex
act amount of Federal aid depends
on the school’s need for financial as

sistance and on the type of meal
served.
Reimbursement is made by the W
l’A for food used in three types of
lunches. Type A is a complete lunch
sufficient to provide one third to one
half of a child's daily diet require
ments. This meal must contain at
least one-half pint of milk; a protein
food, such as meat, poultry, cheese,
fish, egg, dry peas, beans, soybeans, j
or peanut butter; vegetables and| or^
fruit; whole grain or enriched bread
or rolls ; and butter or fortified oleo
margarine. Type B lunch consists of
the same foods as the A lunch but i
the portions are smaller. It there
fore should be supplemented by food
brought from home. Type C lunch
cOnsis*s of a half-p;nt of milk.
Mr. Pol’ock explained that tlv
number of Negro children given the’
opportunity to enjoy school lunches
has steadily increased as the need foi
such a program has been brought to
the attent:on of communit’es. In the
first year of its operation, only a few
thousand Negro children throughout
the Nation participated; last year,
this number was raised to nearly a
million. Mr. Pollock believes that
this year, with more parents working
in war iohs. greater numbers than
ever will want their children to have
the advantages of an organized com
munity school lunch program.
