More Americans hungry,
homeless in 2006: mayors

"More Americans went homeless and hungry in 2006 than the year before and children made up almost a quarter of those in emergency shelters, said a report released on Thursday by the U.S. Conference of Mayors.

...The group estimated 23 percent of requests for emergency food assistance simply went unmet."
