the geographical extent of known famine in UNRRA's operating sphere in China which includes the former fighting and occupied zones east of the heavy lines on the map is shown by the shaded areas charted from reports of UNRRA regional survey teams. Although a general food shortage exists in many of the unshaded areas, only the critical starvation regions reported by UNRRA field workers are shown.
