    An international effort has been mounted to provide relief and development assistance to the victims of the savage drought that has brought distress to the sub-Sahara countries of Africa. The United States, through the Agency for International Development, is participating in a Recovery and Rehabilitation program aimed at providing the basis for social and economic development of the area, known as the Sahel. AID's assistance includes health and nutrition projects; agriculture and livestock production; water management; transportation and reforestation activities, as well as emergency relief. Food shipped to Mauritania from Germany is stacked on the Nouakchott wharf. Trucks will haul the grain to distribution points.
