Your reporter's assertion also does not accord with the facts concerning the obstacles to the current "food for Biafra" projects. The Vatican, the International Red Cross, the London Times, the New York Times (to mention only a few) have consistently stated that if the relief efforts are to have any impact on Biafran starvation, food must be transported by land from the rest of Nigeria, because of the inadequacy of airport facilities in what remains of Biafra.

In fact it seems that the professional policy-making middle class is acting neither in the spirit of the church as personified by Cardinal Cushing's ecumenicism, nor in accord with public opinon; rather it is upholding in the name of "prevailing sentiment" mythical standards that are dear to itself only and few others...
