- Dr. John T. T. Hundley's paper, titled "The Poverty Problem," explores the global and national issues of poverty, emphasizing the insensitivity of the wealthy to the needs of the underprivileged. It critiques the federal Poverty Program's execution, citing mismanagement and insufficient planning, particularly in Laredo, Texas.
