But most of them have little choice: they sell at the price the market sets. Farmers in Europe, the U.S. and Japan

20、are luckier: they receive massive government subsidies in the form of guaranteed prices or direct handouts. Last month U.S. President Bush signed a new farm bill that gives American farmers $190 billion over the next 10 years, or $83 billion more than they had been scheduled to get, and pushes U.S.

21、agricultural support close to crazy European levels. Bush said the step was necessary to promote farmer independence and preserve the farm way of life for generations. It is also designed to help the Republican Party win control of the Senate in Novembers mid-term elections.Agricultural production i

22、n most poor countries accounts for up to 50% of GDP, compared to only 3% in rich countries. But most farmers in poor countries grow just enough for themselves and their families. Those who try exporting to the West find their goods whacked with huge tariffs or competing against cheaper subsidized go

23、ods. In 1999 the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development concluded that for each dollar developing countries receive in aid they lose up to $14 just because of trade barriers imposed on the export of their manufactured goods. Its not as if the developing world wants any favours, says Gera

24、ld Ssendwula, Ugandas Minister of Finance. What we want is for the rich countries to let us compete.Agriculture is one of the few areas in which the Third World can compete. Land and labour are cheap, and as farming methods develop, new technologies should improve output. This is no-pie-in-the-sky s

25、peculation. The biggest success in Kenyas economy over the past decade has been the boom in exports of cut flowers and vegetables to Europe. But that may all change in , when Kenya will be slightly too rich to qualify for the least developed country status that allows African producers to avoid payi

26、ng stiff European import duties on selected agricultural products. With trade barriers in place, the horticulture industry in Kenya will shrivel as quickly as a discarded rose. And while agriculture exports remain the great hope for poor countries, reducing trade barriers in other sectors also works

27、: Americas African Growth and Opportunity Act, which cuts duties on exports of everything from handicrafts to shoes, has proved a boon to Africas manufacturers. The lesson: the Third World can prosper if the rich world gives it a fair go.This is what makes Bushs decision to increase farm subsidies l

28、ast month all themore depressing. Poor countries have long suspected that the rich world urges rade liberalization only so it can wangle its way into new markets. Such suspicions caused the Seattle trade talks to break down three years ago. But last November members of the World Trade Organization,

29、meeting in Doha, Qatar, finally agreed to a new round of talks designed to open up global trade in agriculture andtextiles. Rich countries assured poor countries, that their concerns were finally being addressed. Bushs handout last month makes a lie of Americas commitment to those talks and his pers

I had managed to sell all my papers and was coming home in the snow

33、. It was that strange hour in downtown New York when the workers were pouring homeward in the twilight. I marched among thousands of tired men and women whom the factory whistles had unyoked. They flowed in rivers through the clothing factory districts, then down along the avenues to the East Side.I

34、 met my father near Cooper Union. I recognized him, a hunched, frozen figure in an old overcoat standing by a banana cart. He looked so lonely, the tears came to my eyes. Then he saw me, and his face lit with his sad, beautiful smile -Charlie Chaplins smile.Arch, its Mikey, he said. So you have sold

35、 your papers! Come and eat a banana.He offered me one. I refused it. I felt it crucial that my father sell his bananas, not give them away. He thought I was shy, and coaxed and joked with me, and made me eat the banana. It smelled of wet straw and snow.You havent sold many bananas today, pop, I said

36、 anxiously.He shrugged his shoulders.What can I do? No one seems to want them.It was true. The work crowds pushed home morosely over the pavements. The rusty sky darkened over New York building, the tall street lamps were lit, innumerable trucks, street cars and elevated trains clattered by. Nobody

37、and nothing in the great city stopped for my fathers bananas.I ought to yell, said my father dolefully. I ought to make a big noise like other peddlers, but it makes my throat sore. Anyway, Im ashamed of yelling, it makes me feel like a fool. I had eaten one of his bananas. My sick conscience told m

38、e that I ought to pay for it somehow. I must remain here and help my father.Ill yell for you, pop, I volunteered.Arch, no, he said, go home; you have worked enough today. Just tell momma Ill be late.But I yelled and yelled. My father, standing by, spoke occasional words of praise, and said I was a w

39、onderful yeller. Nobody else paid attention. The workers drifted past us wearily, endlessly; a defeated army wrapped in dreams of home. Elevated trains crashed; the Cooper Union clock burned above us; the sky grew black, the wind poured, the slush burned through our shoes. There were thousands of st

40、range, silent figures pouring over the sidewalks in snow. None of them stopped to buy bananas. I yelled and yelled, nobody listened.My father tried to stop me at last. Nu, he said smiling to console me, that was wonderful yelling. Mikey. But its plain we are unlucky today! Lets go home.I was frantic

41、, and almost in tears. I insisted on keeping up my desperate yells.
