Continued from Shot No. 55381 (Part 13/15 of speech): WAS of Prime Minister John Diefenbaker concluding his speech to the United Nations Assembly on September 26, 1960. Transcript is as follows: "We suggest that experts, in an experts' bank, if you will, might be recruited for medicine, public health, sanitation, public welfare, distribution of supplies, communications, transportation, and police services. To set up an experts' bank would make for administrative stability instead of having to rely on crash recruiting campaign for this purpose after the need arises. One matter which Canada has pressed in the past, and which I now repeat, is in the field of providing aid through food contributions. The problem of feeding the millions of chronically hungry and under-nourished peoples of the world is tragic and urgent. Some of our countries have tremendous surpluses of cereals and other foodstuffs. We also have the capacity to increase our production greatly. Canada's surplus of wheat, as of July 31, was 536 million bushels. Mr. President, surplus food, piled up in sterile storage, is hard to justify when so many human beings lack adequate food and nutrition. I realize, as the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) has stated, that agricultural surpluses of the more advanced countries would only be temporary relief and therefore would be incomplete. I believe, however, that much must be done on behalf of food-deficit countries, first to help them in their hour of need and then to help them raise their own levels of production. This to me is the responsibility of the United Nations as a whole, to meet this challenge.A few countries cannot underwrite the costs of transferring their surpluses to the countries in need. What we need is to join together in contributing to a solution of truly world-wide scope to this problem of the world's suffering and starving peoples. We have tried to do that. We have no ambitions internationally. We covet no country, we want to change no country's views. We have made available in wheat and flour to under-developed countries aid in the amount of 56 million dollars. I now welcome and commend the suggestion made by the President of the United States last week that the Assembly should seriously consider devising a workable plan along the lines of the "Food for Peace" programme. We envisage a "food bank" to provide food to Member states through the United Nations."Continued in Shot No. 55382.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - FEBRUARY 20: New York Mayor Eric Adams listens to reporters questions during the Q and A portion of the press conference which ended prematurely after members of the media were forewarned not to ask off - topic questions at the NYPD's 40th Precinct on February 20, 2025 in the South Bronx borough of New York City. A day after attending a court hearing in response to the Justice Department’s request to dismiss corruption charges against him, Adams was joined by local officials as they spoke on public safety and quality of life affecting community members along Melrose Avenue in the South Bronx (AKA “The Hub”). To address quality of life and public safety, the Adams administration initiated this effort as part of its "Community Link" initiative, which represents a cooperative, multi-agency approach to addressing persistent issues. Earlier this week, four deputy mayors from Adams' administration resigned over his cooperation with U.S. President Donald Trump's immigration policies, which prosecutors in his bribery case alleged was part of a deal with the Trump administration's Department of Justice to drop charges against him.

LONG ISLAND CITY, NEW YORK - OCTOBER 16: NYC Mayor Eric Adams, Interim Police Commissioner Thomas Donlon and Anthony Miranda, Sheriff of the City of New York, Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) are briefed by the NYPD on the scheduled shipment of illegal seized vaping products to an Ohio facility for destruction as NYC Mayor Eric Adams announces the shipment of 1,246 pounds of seized illegal vapes to be destroyed in an Ohio facility by law enforcement under “Operation Padlock to Protect" on October 16, 2024 in New York City. During a press conference at the Long Island City Property Clerk Office location, Mayor Adams announced the all-seized illegal vapes were a result of the Adams administration’s successful “Operation Padlock to Protect” and contained batteries and other hazardous materials that must be disposed of safely. “Operation Padlock to Protect" is a multi-agency task group with representatives from DCWP, the NYPD, and the Sheriff's Office. The New York State Cannabis Enforcement Task Force has so far closed more than 100 illegal stores around the state. Illicit stores fuel criminality by selling to children and teenagers by disguising products in colorful packaging that resembles packaging for candy. The United States has waged a “war on drugs” since the 1970s in an attempt to curb the usage of illegal drugs. (Footage by Tomas Abad/Getty Images)
