RIVERS >?- Vice President-Medical Affairs ; The National Foundation ll, If there is any one point ,',.^hat we scientists must get ./.across to the "average man" (if there is any such person) , it is that conducting a first-rate research program is much more than just giving money indiscriminately , "to various laboratories. The key to right giving is selecting the right people to . whom to give. This is a most difficult task but it is a job at Which The National Foundation has proven itself exceptionally competent. Research may be said to be a journey into the unknown to push forward the frontiers qf knowledge. Inevitably, its ,» nature is such that no man can , foretell exactly where it will I lead. : But this "average man" to , whom we just referred, and who is perhaps dissatisfied with : the uncertainties over where • research will lead, might be ^reminded that The National •'foundation has shown in the ' past what it can do--as, for example, initiating the research that developed the Salk and Sabin polio vaccines. This and other major accomplishments constitute the credentials of the world's largest v o l u n t a r y health organization for going ahead. A great deal of basic research, of this journey into the unknown, was needed to create the bases which made possible the development of the polio vaccines. TTiis again will be necessary as "The National Foundation moves forward in its expanded program which includes birth defects and arthritis in addition Dr. Rivers k\. yvf • ~ •• . cHferiry Shores New Officers Assume Duties Clare Mueller EV. 5-0553 Dr. Albert B. Sabin at his University of Cincinnati laboratory examines samples of his live-virus anti-polio vaccine, developed by him with $1,500,000 in March of Dimes public contributions. Sabin vaccine, to be taken orally instead of by needle, has been approved for eventual use. in the U. S. to continued work in polio. Perhaps you have heard the comment that a camel is a horse put together by a committee. This illuminates what I think is one of the principles of research. Great research is done by great men, not by committees. It is The National Foundation's job, among others, to find those great men, and to see that they have adequate equipment with which to work. It is natural for the public to want immediate results. For the parents of a child afflicted with arthritis, for instance, to want quick cures is understandable. But we are trustees of public funds. We cannot spend those funds save for projects that have some promise of success, conducted by people who have shown what they can do. If our aims in research could be summed up, I would say that Hie National Foundation operates like a rapier, not a bludgeon. We are selective. We put March of Dimes funds in the exact spot and under the specific man who will make the most of it. We do not dump millions into hundreds of projects with a vague hope that by the law of averages some may produce. In short, we try to be as careful in the selection of research projects as an extremely fussy woman is in selection of a spring hat. The research future is bright. With laboratory methods that have been developed, many under March of Dimes grants, we can move farther and faster than in years past. Indeed, I often think of the polio struggle as a time when we tooled up for what is to come. The methods that were so successful in that polio challenge are now being applied to the greater challenges that lie ahead. To accomplish what The National Foundation desires requires great men. We have had them in the past. We shall have them in the future and, with public contributions to the March of Dimes, those men will accomplish much for the good of mankind.
