THE PRESIDENT'S REVIEW

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


I,
.s it presumptuous of me to speak about foundations in general and The
Rockefeller Foundation in particular? After all, I have only been on the job
for less than a year. But I have spent these months—in many ways the most
interesting of my life—listening to America, and to many people in the devel-
oping world where as yet perceived only dimly so much of mankind's future
is taking shape.
I have also been reading.
I have read with interest, for example, Waldemar Nielsen's "The Big Foun-
dations," and the headlines stimulated by this book with even more interest:
Research Study Calls Big U. S. Foundations "Passive, Conservative"; The
Twentieth Century Fund Report Finds Controversial, Innovative Giving Is
Rare (Wall Street Journal, Oct. 16,1972); Philanthropic Foundations Have
Traditionally Concentrated Their Grants in Educational Institutions. Two
New Books Suggest This Course Has Been Uncreative and Unimaginative
(The Chronicle of Higher Education, Oct. 16, 1972); Wealthiest Founda-
tions in U. S. Reported To Be "Malfunctioning" (New York Times, Oct. 17,
1972); The "Sick" Foundations (Editorial in the New York Times, Oct. 23,
1972).
I also noted Nielsen's observations that the Trustees of The Rockefeller
Foundation surprised the skeptics with my appointment as President of the
Foundation and , . . indications were that . . . [Knowles] . . . intended., with
the backing of the Trustees, to give The Rockefeller Foundation a new and less
constipated style and its greatest shaking up in half a century. My medical
specialty however was not gastroenterology but respiratory physiology and
diseases of the chest and heart—and the better metaphor might have been
that I was called to the house to breathe a new life into a venerable institution.
In fact, why was I offered this magnificent opportunity? There are many in
our country far more experienced and better equipped than I. When I asked
"Why me?" I was told that what was wanted was,first,a younger man with
intensive administrative experience in and a deep commitment to some field
of social welfare, and, secondly, someone who was willing and able to stand
up and articulate the interests of the Foundation with the public interest.
I believe my experiences in life and my perception of life are consonant
with the Trustees' understanding of what I might be able to contribute to The
Rockefeller Foundation,
I was born in the Roaring Twenties of a hard-working father and an artist
mother, both possessed of a magnificent sense of humor. I was reared in the
heartland on the Protestant ethic and such homilies as "Finish the Job,"
"Neither a Borrower Nor a Lender Re," "Cleanliness Is Nexl to Godliness."
I remember my mother feeding stray dogs and cats and itinerant hoboes while

simultaneously lecturing them on the virtues of hard work. My first heroic
figure was the family general practitioner—a German immigrant named
George Klinkerfuess—and at the age of eight I decided I wanted to be a doc-
tor. I graduated from Harvard by the skin of my teeth in 1947; my happiest
moments were spent playing the piano in a band, taking a course in Shakes-
peare's comedies, and performing on various athletic teams. Pre-medicine
was all hard science—no social science, no humanities were required—a
deficiency which I do not understand to this day.
I graduated from the Washington University (St. Louis) School of Medi-
cine in 1951 and interned at the Massachusetts General Hospital where I was
to spend the next 20 years. My second heroic figure was Barry Wood, profes-
sor of Medicine at Washington University, who taught me the Socratic method
of teaching and learning. From 1953 to 19551 was assigned to the Portsmouth
Naval Hospital in Virginia where I learned that even in the tightest bureauc-
racy it was possible to accomplish something as long as your energies were
directed to problem solving and not complaining. In 1958 I studied respira-
tory physiology at the University of Rochester where I met my third and fourth
heroicfigures,Wallace Fenn and Hermann Rahn, who taught me the beauties
of the scientific method and infected me with their own passionate commit-
ment, as true scientists, to the quest for knowledge. I then returned to the
Massachusetts General Hospital where I practiced and taught medicine and
conducted research for the next four years until 1962 when I was named
General Director. My fifth heroicfigure,Dr. Edward D. Churchill, professor
of surgery ai Harvard and chief of surgery at the Massachusetts General
Hospital taught me the pleasures of reaching outside the field of medicine for
added perspective on one's own field, the proper use of the English language
(a subscription to the London Times Literary Supplement proved invaluable),
and the political intricacies of the MGH. My library began to expand to
encompass literary criticism, history, and the social sciences.
From 1962 to 1972 I served as General Director of the MGH. It was at this
juncture that I learned that what one privately agrees on with one's colleagues
can have a devastating but frequently beneficial effect when said publicly. I
was appalled at the lack of understanding of the unique position and contribu-
tion of the urban teaching hospital—its costs, its manpower problems, its buf-
feting by a multiplicity of private and public forces, near and afar, its disor-
ganization internally. The administrative experience was intense to say the
least, and our efforts mounted to articulate the institution with the public inter-
est. We must have done something right for, between 1962 and 1972, the
bottom line showed that our annual donors had increased from 10,000 to
100,000 and our annual gifts from $250,000 to $4 million.
Three episodes punctuated a lovely decade at the MGH. On afishingtrip

in 1963, I took along a book entitled The House of Intellect by Jacques
Barzun with the statement on the jacket: "How intellect, the prime force in
Western civilization, is being destroyed by our culture in the name of art,
science and philanthropy." It is a book of ideas, beautifully expressed. For
me, the experience was a revelation.
The second episode was going to Vietnam in 1967 at the request of the State
Department and President Johnson to report on the state of health of the
civilian population. During the month before we left I read everything I could
about the history and culture of Vietnam and the Southeast Asian peninsula
that hinges India and China. I kept a daily diary and was able to convert an
unbelievably rigorous emotional experience into "conscious thought." I had
never forgotten Andre Malraux's answer to the question of how to make the
best of one's life, which was to "convert one's experience into conscious
thought."
The third episode was my five-month sojourn with the Nixon Administra-
tion when the then Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare, Robert Finch,
attempted to have me appointed his Assistant Secretary for Health and Scien-
tific Affairs. This experience allowed me to look objectively at democracy
in action—and I capitalized on the experience by enlarging my library on
American history, particularly the period between the watershed of the 1890*s
to the present. It was during this time that I learned the pleasures of under-
standing at least partially where our country stood as of 1970—through the
eyes of Commager, Hofsladter, Lcrner, Leuchtenberg, Arthur Link, John
Blum, Mark Sullivan, James MacGregor Burns, and Arthur Sehlesinger, Jr.—
to say nothing of Teddy White. The experience stimulated me to take a year
as a part-time fellow in the Kennedy Institute of Politics al Harvard so I could
learn more about public policy and public management. I had been heavily
involved in it for ten years so why not convert it into "conscious thought"?
I had, after all, survived a remarkable decade.
The turbulence of the America of the 1960's reflected a new level of
rational and sometimes irrational groping for a new order of life. It was
a decade of upheaval—individual, institutional, political, economic, and
moral upheaval. By the end of the decade, the country was exhausted by
one shock after another, and seemed transiently to be on the ropes. It was an
age of anxiety and violence, and as one social critic said, the "onset of the
negotiating society'"—one in which traditional ways of doing things were dis-
rupted as women, blacks and other minorities, homosexuals, members of the
armed forces, students, welfare recipients, and prison inmates, to name but
a few. challenged traditional values and the power structures thai purveyed
those values, demanding and obtaining a rethinking of those values and a
redistribution of that power. The relative success of sueh confrontation

•1

attested to a general public awareness of and sympathy for the deprivations
of minority groups and a willingness to review traditional American values.
There was also the larger, vaguely perceived feeling that centralized, deper-
sonalized, technical, machine control by the bureaucracies of government,
big business, or private institutions had to be changed—and local, personal
control of one's existence recaptured. Although the established religions con-
tinued to decline in their influence in the community, a religious revival of sorts
bespoke the search of many for meaning and significance in their lives.
The public mood was one of fear in some quarters; anger, frustration and
despair in others; or, worst of all, alienation and apathy. Yet extremist
groups abounded, bringing to mind William Butler Yeats:

Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;


Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world....
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

The cause of the disease was easily identified but seemingly impossible to
remedy—namely a massive scientific and technological machine run wild.
Things were in the saddle, not the individual man—things which could wipe
out entire populations with the bang of a nuclear bomb or the whimper of
unchecked population growth—things which dehumanized individuals and
left them powerless to control inexorable forces shaping their lives.
Progress was no longer inevitable and people began to feel thai what they
did would not affect or shape their futures. The goods of unbridled industrial
expansion were accompanied by the bads of environmental pollution and the
exhaustion of finite natural resources. Trends of global concern were being
investigated for their interrelationship and their implications for the future
of our planet: accelerated industrial expansion, rapid population growth,
depletion of nonrenewable resources, environmental pollution, and malnu-
trition. The computer-based model could only conclude that civilization would
collapse of its own weight—if growth in industrial production and in popula-
tion continued at its present rates. Food available per capita would ultimately
diminish, natural resources would be depleted, obsolescence of plant and
equipment would prove irretrievable, and population would diminish rapidly
because of starvation and disease, if global warfare had not already inter-
vened. The Maltlmsian decline would begin about the year 2020.
With all the comforts and luxuries of an advanced industrial country, the
American people appeared to be dispirited, to have lost their faith in them-
selves and in the direction of their country. Glutted with consumer p;oods and
bombarded by the mass media all stressing the {wul life of endless con-
sumption, the increased time available for leisure and recreation found

5

many Americans confused, guilt-ridden, and frankly unhappy with them-
selves. Leisure time was used for the mindless distraction of television or
brooding-dark introspection. Schopenhauer said that there are two basic
sources of unhappiness: not having what you want: and having it. Happiness
and the full life lie in the challenges and struggles, and the modern American
either had everything or was overwhelmed with the magnitude of problems
and retreated to apathy.
Some of the confusion characteristic of the age and of the values in an
advanced, industrial society dedicated to increased consumption and growth
is illustrated by the following Associated Press news item:

Instant riches came to the family two years ago in the form of
a $200,000 inheritance. Today they were back where they started—"We
blew it,** said Mrs. .
The spending spree was two years in the making, according to Mrs.
, a mother of four who lives with her husband in a rented house
near Los Angeles harbor.
"We waited two long years for the attorneys to haggle, and the Govern-
ment to get its share, and my sister to make claims against it," she said.
"But when itfinallycame, it really wore us out spending it. We were just
exhausted."
The money, bequeathed by the father of Mrs. , went for a variety
of items.
"We bought cars and motorcycles for the two boys, and a truck, and a
$2,000 hi-fi with all the components, and clothes, and we put a down pay-
ment on a house, and the girls and I all had our teeth capped, and I had my
breasts lifted," Mrs. said,
"And, oh yes, we bought ski equipment. And we traveled, we put 200,000
miles on one of the cars in one year. And we all saw psychiatrists."
In contrast to the misfortunes of some contest winners catapulted into
unexpected problems when they suddenly become wealthy, the
family was united by the inheritance.
"It was the first time in our lives that we really worked and planned
together," Mrs. recalled.

An uplifting experience—a technological glut of consumer goods on a back-


ground of travel, Freud, and sexual improvement—and thefirsttime a family
had "worked and planned together."
Science and technology had created the new age of turbulent concern char-
acterized by transience and impermancnce, a new individual and collective
self-consciousness, a rapidity of change that required new insight and under-
standing, new institutions, new values. All seemed pitifully slow in coming.

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


These were some of the thoughts in my head when I received the invitation,
last year, to become President of The Rockefeller Foundation.
Now, what have we been doing since July 5, 1972? I shall not tell you of
the hours spent with each member of the staff, the incredible number of inter-
ruptions, all conspiring against sustained thought, and the occasional outside
supplicants who thought thai, at this stage of my life, I was unable to distin-
guish between shadow and substance.
Our most important attempts to date center around developing a coherent
policy with clearly defined ends. Let me describe some elements of our think-
ing as it has evolved over the past several months.
First of all, the strength of the Foundation resides in the wisdom, intelli-
gence, and intellectual capacity of its staff. These three quite disparate ele-
ments are all for naught if they are not combined with a passionate commit-
ment, sustained by driving energy. But how do we maintain our intellectual
capacity, overcome the inevitable isolation of foundation life, survive the
continuous pressures on our integrity due to the stultifying effects of reading
tons of material each year, all the while being told how beautiful we are? In
short, how can we stay alive intellectually?
Secondly, how do we know whether we are doing a good job or not? We
have no constituency save for the disgruntled majority who don't gel our
support. (Over 7,000 grant requests a year are turned down while roughly 550
are supported.) How can we obtain an objective view of ourselves? What i?
the most appropriate paradigm of evaluation? How do we establish our priori-
tics? How do we know that we arc doing what we're supposed to be doing?
Who will tell us honestly, realizing that we can get only so far with reviewing;
ourselves and outsiders may not wish to square with us for fear of losing
potential support! We are intellectual and social venture capital. Have we
taken risks and failed, or succeeded? Should we be criticized for doing things
which involve no risk, no turmoil, and yet are not being done by anyone else?
How much of our funds should be channeled through other institutions versus
support of our own field staff? How fast are our successful innovations insti-
tutionalized, turned over to public and private support and expanded while
we go on in advance of the conventional wisdom?
Thirdly, the present atomized, departmental approach of categorized indi-
viduals lias us all confused. The House of Intellect crumbles as every expert
lives in glorious isolation without moral commitment to the whole. Isn't it
time \vc indulged in integrated planning and approaches to the worldV prob-
lems and finally admitted that science and the technological fix is only a part
of the solution to the problems? The pill and the I. U. I), are fine but who should
u*e them, for what purposes, and what are the social, economic, moral, and
cultural determinants of population control? Tho same can be said of increased

food production. Thefirstphase was the Green Revolution. The second phase
involves its effect on nutrition, family size, jobs, rural-urban migration, em-
ployment, land reform, distribution of income, cultural values—and we
shouldn't duck these issues. Science and technology without moral ordering
of their priorities and full anticipation of their effects exist in a dehumanized,
amoral void.
Fourth, where will the people trained to manage the complexities of the
modern world come from?
Fifth, with the success of the Stockholm conference on the environment,
with the view we obtained of our small, lonely, blue planet hanging in the giant
black void, with the effects of instant communication and jet travel—may not
the time be ripe once again to intensify efforts for world order, world peace,
and the effective reduction of conflict?
I am sure of only a few things at the moment:
Foundations have a magnificent opportunity to maintain the richness of
pluralism and heterodoxy which has strengthened our national life and to
contribute heavily to social melioration if they have the wit and intellectual
capacity to do it. If they don't, I really don't know exactly who will do it
outside central government—and I, for one, am not prepared to settle for
complete state control yet.
Secondly, there will be one future for the world or none at all—and The
Rockefeller Foundation is uniquely equipped to stand up and say so in the
current era of neo-isolationism.
Thirdly, the arts and humanities will receive increasing attention with spe-
cial reference to the moral basis of scientific and technical decisions. We will
focus on defined population groups here and abroad with an integrated ap-
proach involving the full participation of experts in economics, public health
and nutrition, population planning and demography, agriculture, and edu-
cation—always with the steadying hand of the artist and humanist for they
will tell us better than we can ourselves who we are and how we're doing. In
the process, we may be able to plug a few leaks in and strengthen the foun-
dation of the House of Intellect with style, that is, with the ability to reach
our ends with the least expenditure of energy, and with creativity, that is,
the ability to evoke effective surprise.

THE GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE

To clarify these ideas, a program committee of Trustees W.HR appointed


in December, 1972—to conduct a formal review of the overall program and
policies of the RF since 1958. What follows is a summary of the major
themes that have emerged. When our deliberations are completed we will
make them public as a Special Report to the American people.

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


On the international scene, malnutrition, rapid population growth, ill-
health, unemployment and abject poverty, ignorance, and inadequate edu-
cational and training opportunities continue to plague the less-developed
countries. The gap between developed and developing countries continues to
widen, and despite the miracles of the Green Revolution, population growth
outstrips the increase in food production. Rapid urbanization finds large
segments of the population without vital human services. The actual incidence
of conflict within and among nations has increased, while the potential for
major conflict expands in the race for economic development and the resultant
competition for increasingly scarce natural resources. In the United States,
support for the United Nations and United States AID has wavered. For the
RF, all this would indicate that the Conquest of Hunger Program be main-
tained and strengthened, with special emphasis on the "second generation"
problems of the Green Revolution: distribution of food, nutritional status,
rural-urban migration, employment, income distribution, land reform, and
rural development— with specific reference to the plight of the small farmer.
More attention should be directed to defined populations in rural areas of
the less-developed countries by interdisciplinary teams specifically concerned
with health and nutritional status, population problems, education and train-
ing, and economic development.
At the same time, there remain technical and scientific problems related
to agriculture and human nutrition, the solutions to which the Foundation
should continue to pursue. These include animal diseases such as trypanoso-
miasis in Africa, the legumes as a prime source of protein for human con-
sumption, to name just a few.
The University Development Program is likely to remain a vital interest
of the Foundation with increasing emphasis on education for national and
regional development. More attention might well be paid to the continuum
of primary, secondary, and higher education and to more rapid utilization of
knowledge for improving the quality of life of the people of the developing
countries. In addition to its traditional interests in the social sciences, medi-
cine, and agriculture, should the RF not consider increased emphasis on the
development of the arts and humanities in the universities where the Founda-
tion works? New types of eurricular development should be explored with
the goal of relating the educational process more clearly and directly to the
problems of the people.
A small, exploratory program in Conflict Resolution and International
Affairs is being considered. The times arc pressing. SufuVe il to say that the
world spends .$200 billion annually on arms and $8 billion for aid to the
(leu'lopinp; countries. A number of events indicate that this may be a particu-
larly propitious lime for increased (and renewed) attention to this field.

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


The Population Program will remain a significant interest of the Founda-
tion, but with increased emphasis on the social, economic, moral, and cultural
determinants of population growth and on educational as contrasted with
purely technological services. We will increase our efforts in the support
of such work in the developing countries.
On the domestic scene, we will continue to focus on the development of
centers of excellence in reproductive biology and population problems with
a prime emphasis on developing the sorely needed scientific and administrative
leaders of tomorrow. Integration of population programs with medical edu-
cation will be stimulated. Humanistic (philosophical and ethical) concerns
surrounding population controls will need stressing.

THE SCENE AT HOME

In the United States, major issues are those of inequality of opportunity


reflected in inadequate access to education and training, health, and legal
services. Chronic unemployment, abysmal health statistics, lack of civil rights,
gross injustice to minority groups, steadily increasing crime rates, inequality
in the distribution of income and wealth, and rising welfare rolls remain grind-
ing problems of catastrophic proportions. Massive federal programs initiated
during the Great Society movement of the 1960's have accomplished much
good, but the electorate seems reluctant to vote for their conlinuanee, as social
degeneration and inexorably rising taxes seem to outstrip social melioration.
Our traditional belief in inevitable progress through science and technology
is fading rapidly as we confront mounting pollution, urban decay, crime, and
persistent inequality.
As an industrial civilization turns the corner and become^ a service society,
we find ourselves poorly equipped economically and politically to save our-
selves through effective social action. The complexities of managing gov-
ernment at all levels and of the development of an equitable social policy
find us poorly equipped to relate economic, lepal, political, moral, and cul-
tural concerns to the human behavior of an ethnically and racially diverse
population.
All service "industries" (health, environment, government) suffer from
a Jack of excellence in administration. As the 1960's shade into the 1970's,
America may be in the process of rediscovering herself as manifested by the
youth movement, the recognition of the persistence of cultural pluralism, and
the increasing perception that moral and ethical concerns are of prime im-
portance to the decision-making process.
The Foundation cannot cover the waterfront of scientific and social prob-
lems, bul it must seek to be, knowledgeable about the particulars of social
movements and change and to understand their significance, Tin's will require

10

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


a small group of individuals who constantly monitor major social and cultural
movements, have up-to-date knowledge of state and federal programs, and
detailed knowledge of economic research as it relates specifically to human
rights and services.
A common thread is the need for more effective development of leaders in
public policy and management (at both the national and international level)
who understand and can relate the complexities of social melioration and
human behavior to the political process.
The Foundation cannot afford to relax its historic commitment to Equal
Opportunity and specifically to the eradication of poverty and injustice among
minority groups with special attention to blacks—the number one example
of gross oppression by white America. We are actively exploring the possibil-
ities of a major addition in rural-urban development in the South—and we
hope during 1973 to present new approaches to the reduction of the social
and economic injustice suffered by blacks over two centuries of American
life. We will also look for opportunities—albeit on a much smaller scale—
among other minority groups: Chicanos, Indians, women, children, the "white
ethnics'*—Mexican-Americans should not be doomed to relive the black ex-
perience and successful resolution of either problem could help solve the
other.
The arts and humanities tell us who we are, who we have been, where we
are disjointed, and what we might become. The perceptual and expressive
concerns of the arts must become more central to general education. The
moral and ethical concerns of the humanities must weave a thread through
all our deliberations—both in our daily work and in our ultimate decisions
as to who and what we support. There is a significant ground swell of interest
and concern at all levels and age groups of our country (and the world) with
the moral ordering of our priorities as a people and a nation. The Foundation
must foster and encourage the movement to understand and rediscover our-
selves—our historic beliefs and values, our diversity, our very purpose. The
RF could play a vital role in an area which many foundations, universities,
and Government have shunned.
The Quality of the Environment Program is undergoing intensive study even
as national and international concern is mounting in this area of ultimate
human concern.

Finally, I believe we are all either tired or bored with the doctrinaire ap-
proaches of the far right and far left. We are in the process of re-discoverinp;
and re-defining America. We need to be ro-energizcd with the hope and faith
that is based on the recognition of the real advances we enjoyed in the .sixties.

We deserve to have our heads up, and we should always remember the words
of William James: "Damn the absolute!"
The truth is, after all, plural and contingent, never fixed and absolute,
and is forever in the making.
Let me finish with a quote from Waldemar Nielsen's book. I do so un-
ashamedly because I can say I had no responsibility for the events which led
to his conclusions. Is it necessary to add that the mass media did not use this
quote in informing the American people of the book's contents? Nielsen states:

No institution., of course, can be all things to all men. Its quality has to
be measured not by some theoretical standard of perfection but by com-
parison with other institutions. By this test The Rockefeller Foundation has
been a great foundation: it has set high standards for itself; it has preserved
its integrity; it has persevered in its efforts to fulfill its objectives; and it
has major achievements to its credit. Indeed, judged by the magnitude of its
contributions to human well-being over the years, The Rockefeller Founda-
tion has accumulated an unrivaled record. In many ways it has been the
standard against which the other "modern" foundations have measured
themselves.

I can only hope that the next generation's historians will be able to say the
same ihings—fortissimo, not sotto voce.

CONQUEST OF HUNGER

"Improving

the Prospects of

the Poorest"

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


IVXore than two-thirds of the world's people live in the poorer nations—
most of them depend on subsistence farming for a marginal livelihood. Aver-
age incomes are extremely low; most farms are small, some of them are
fragmented; opportunities for education, health care, and other amenities
are extremely limited. Rural people in these countries must glean an exist-
ence from long impoverished soils, using seed and production techniques
largely unchanged from centuries past. Because of rapidly expanding popu-
lations, isolation, and the lack of opportunity, farm people, particularly the
young, continue to move in large numbers to already overcrowded cities.
Those who remain produce little for the urban markets. Because of scant
cash income, they are unable to purchase the products of urban industry,
thus stifling development of domestic markets and of job opportunities in
the cities. Consequently, the talents and energies of rural dwellers, which
represent a vast potential contribution to development, are not engaged in
the tough struggle of nation building.
For 30 years The Rockefeller Foundation has worked at the improvement
of farm productivity in the developing countries. It continues to do so in the
belief that its contribution will improve the future prospects of large num-
bers of the poorest of the world's poor.

ASSISTANCE TO SMALL FARMERS


While available evidence indicates that use of high-yielding varieties oi
rice, wheat, and maize in Asia and the Middle East has in fad reached
mostly small farmers, it seems clear that in some areas and some countries
new strategies will be needed for farmers with small holdings. Technology
itself is as useful for small farms as it is for large holdings, and is generally
termed "scale neutral." On the other hand, conventional extension practices,
availability of credit, and the supply of crucial fertilizers and pesticides
are often denied the small farmer. Institutions and policies have tended to
favor the larger farms operated on a cash basis.
Believing that strategies could be identified to bring benefits of rapidly
advancing technology to bear on great numbers of small farms, the Founda-
tion has supported several specific efforts on an exploratory basis. The widely
known Puebla Project in Mexico, designed to assist some 50,000 families,
continued to receive Foundation support (through the International Maize
and Wheat Improvement Center) durinp; the year ns it reached the final
stages of its usefulness as an experiment. Simultaneously, the Foundation
has assisted the Foundation for the Promotion of Cooperatives in El Salvador
under Father Jose Romeo Macda. which involves some 12.000 families. The
International Rice Research Institute, with special Foundation funds, has

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


undertaken—in cooperation with agencies in the Philippines—a three-year
program to identify ways to speed the utilization of high-yielding technology
by rice farmers not having access to water for irrigation.
Recognizing that Japan has been particularly successful in maintaining a
high density of rural population while achieving crop yields among the high-
est in the world, the Foundation provided modest funds for studies, by author-
ities in Japan and at the University of Minnesota, of Japanese organization
and methods. This information could be of substantial value to other countries
facing problems similar to those which Japan faced two or three decades ago.

TECHNOLOGY FOR INTENSIVE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION


The improvement of income of rural people will, in most areas of the
world, require substantial gains in farm productivity. This, in turn, will
require the development of improved crop varieties and animal species,
adapted to the conditions of the regions in which they will be used. The
Foundation continues to emphasize the application of science to the develop-
ment of improved technology for the developing countries, with particular
emphasis on the basic food crops—the cereal grains, root crops, food leg-
umes, beef, and swine.
In 1972 the Foundation continued to support the highly effective activities
of several international agricultural research and training centers which the
Ford and Rockefeller Foundations created in the 1960's in cooperation with
the host governments concerned. These include the International Rice Re-
search Institute (IRRI) in the Philippines, the International Maize and Wheat
Improvement Center (CIMMYT) in Mexico, the International Center of
Tropical Agricultural (CIAT) in Colombia, and the International Institute
of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in Nigeria. The Foundation in 1972 pro-
vided some $2,970,000 toward the core support of these institutions out of
a total of some 115 million being provided by international banks, founda-
tions, and national assistance agencies.
The Rockefeller Foundation has maintained an active interest and par-
ticipation in the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research,
recently organized by the World Bank in consultation with the Development
Programme and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Na-
tions, This consortium of interested donors, now numbering some 29 govern-
ments, foundations, and international agencies, was successful in November
1972 in marshaling more than $23 million for 1973 expenses of the original
four institutes plus costs of two important new renters, the International
Potato Center in Peru and the International Crops Research Institute for the
Semi-Arid Tropics in India. These institutes enable many nation* to obtain
help in organixin^ national programs and campaigns for improvement of

15

rice, corn, wheat, sorghum and millets, chick peas, pigeon peas, cowpeas,
and field beans. Work on cassava,fieldbeans, beef, swine, rice, and corn for
South America is under way at CIAT. IITA is concentrating on yams, sweet
potatoes, cowpeas, and chick peas for the humid tropics; rice and corn for
Africa; and new means of managing crops and soils to permit replacing the
ancient and unproductive systems of "slash and burn" agriculture.
The Rockefeller Foundation continued in 1972 to support a special pro-
gram of improvement of wheat headquartered in Turkey with emphasis on
cold, hardy winter wheats and practices associated with items for use in the
low rainfall areas typical of large sections of the Middle East. Cooperating
in this effort are Oregon State University and CIMMYT. In Asia the Foun-
dation continued to provide modest support for an Inter-Asian Corn Improve-
ment Program serving some 10 nations; its headquarters are at Kasetsart
University in Bangkok.
A Foundation sorghum improvement specialist has been assigned to Beirut
to work with national programs throughout the Middle East-North Africa
region. Grants for work on this crop also continued in 1972 at the University
of Nebraska and at the East African Agriculture and Forestry Research
Organization.
The Foundation's former International Potato Improvement Project, head-
quartered in Mexico, became a pail during the year of the activities of the
International Potato Center in Peru. One of the Project's completed activities
was a three-year program of assistance to Pakistan.
In cooperation with agricultural authorities of North America and Europe,
international donor agencies, and the developing nations, Foundation staff
continued the study of need for additional international centers or programs
which would permit each of the developing nations to have access to technol-
ogy and training facilities required for the improvement of its own agricul-
ture. Considering that the technology must be specifically adapted for every
season of every region of every nation, the task ahead for the world agri-
cultural community is indeed massive and complex. Only a beginning has
been made, but some of the more immediate needs of some nations have
been met.

GERMPLASM
During the past 30 years The Rockefeller Foundation, in cooperation with
many others, has been involved in the collection, evaluation, and maintenance
of collections of the world's major food crops. Thousands of strains of rice.
wheat, corn, sorghum, millets, and other crops have now been brought to-
gether in storage and are in use by scientists at many national and inter-
national centers. During 1972 the Foundation made funds available to

16

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


CIMMYT for the collection of additional wheat and corn varieties from
areas not adequately sampled or where advances of the Green Revolution are
rapidly replacing native strains. Additional funds went to IRRI for similar
purposes for rice and to the University of Illinois for assistance with sorghum
and millets.

NUTRITION
Many of the Foundation's activities over the years have been concerned
with the health and nutrition of people in the poorer areas of the developing
countries. The entire agricultural effort of the Foundation is in a sense de-
signed to contribute to both improved diets and the increased incomes which
permit families to diversify and increase food intake.
Considering that 50 percent of the world's protein for food is contributed
by cereal grains, the Foundation has assisted a number of international insti-
tutes, universities in the developing countries, and other centers to develop
capabilities of identifying crop strains high both in total protein and in
nutritional value of that protein. During the past year programs related to
this goal were supported at the Australian National University, at the Uni-
versity of Valle in Colombia, at Kasetsart University in Thailand, and at
Washington State University. Studies of protein malnutrition in infants and
preschool children were supported at the University of Chile, and Mahidol
University, in Thailand, received Foundation funds for support of nutri-
tional activities' as part of its community health program.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
During 1972 scholarships and fellowships in the agricultural sciences
were awarded to some 40 persons from 11 countries to permit them to receive
advanced training at universities in the United States, in Mexico, the Philip-
pines, and other countries. The total awards for advanced training of agri-
cultural specialists passed the 1,700 mark in 1972. The increasing number
of trained people in the less-developed nations of the world lias in recent
years permitted the establishment of international professional associations
to link authorities in various institutions. Tlie Foundation provided Tiiodest
support for the Secretariat of the Latin American Association of Plant Science
and the recently organized Association for the Advancement of Agricultural
Sciences in Africa.
Selective support has also been given to emerging centers of graduate
study in I he developing countries, primarily through the Foundation's Uni-
versity Development Program devscrihed elsewhere, This includes assistance
to the University of Ibadan in Nigeria: the universities of Makerere and
Nairobi in East Africa: Kasetsart University in Thailand, and (lie University

17

of the Philippines. In addition, Foundation support has permitted—on an
experimental basis—joint training at the Ph.D. level by the Indian Agricul-
tural Research Institute and the International Rice Research Institute. Mex-
ico's graduate School of Agriculture at Chapingo continues to receive Foun-
dation support of its efforts to develop Latin America's first strong institution
granting the Ph.D. degree in agricultural sciences. Support at a modest level
continued to go to the Indian Agricultural Research Institute in New Delhi,
an institution which has had Foundation assistance since its organization
some 15 years ago.

PROBLEMS OF POPULATION

"Underfinanced,

Understaffed,

and Overburdened"

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


p.
opulation specialists continue to pursue three basic goals whose conjunc-
tion is seen as the best hope of keeping man's numbers from making the
earth uninhabitable: to gain a better understanding of human reproduction
so as to develop better means of fertility control; to broaden perspectives
on the social, economic, and psychological forces that move people to restrict
family size; and to translate this information into practical policy and action.
The Rockefeller Foundation is supporting several related avenues of approach
to these objectives, notably a series of special fellowships for outstanding
researchers in reproductive biology in addition to grants to university depart-
ments and laboratories for work in this field. The Foundation also makes
grants to individuals and to institutions for relevant studies in the social
sciences, and makes awards for research, training, and community service
in family planning both in the United States and abroad. Work in public
education and diffusion of information is also being given support, as are
several important projects devoted to evaluation of ongoing or recently ter-
minated programs.

RESEARCH IN REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY

Population control, for all the progress it has made, is still handicapped
by its rudimentary technology. The contraceptive measures most commonly
used—ihe anovulant pill and the intrauterine coil—have serious drawbacks,
especially for large-scale public programs in developing areas, which are
usually underfinanced, understaffed, and overburdened. Discovery of a simple,
safe, inexpensive, acceptable birth control technique is probably the greatest
hope for achieving a rapid and dramatic breakthrough in fertility control.
Studies in reproductive biology are currently going forward in many uni-
versities and research centers with funding from national and private sources.
One major effort is being sponsored by the Population Council, whose Inter-
national Committee for Contraceptive Research is screening developments
in a worldwide intensive program which got under way last year with Foun-
dation sponsorship and this year received continued support.
The Foundation again this year provided support for reproductive bio-
logy research and training at university centers in the United States and
elsewhere, particularly where an outstanding scientist or research group is
doing pioneering work or where the grant will serve to build up the research
potential of a department of obstetrics-gynecology. A few distinguished cen-
ters devoted exclusively to studies in reproductive biology, like the Harvard
Laboratory of Human Reproduction and Reproductive Biology, are also
receiving support. A grant made to Harvard this year will underwrite research
expenses of a team to be installed at the Laboratory starting in 1973; the

sixth major research group to be associated with the Laboratory, it will work
on hypothalamic-releasing hormones, ovarian function, steroid binding recep-
tor proteins, and the formation of estrogens in the brain.
Many of the grants made to institutions subsidize an original approach
or line of investigation not likely to be eligible for funds from conventional
sources. A grant to the University of Pennsylvania supports a well-advanced
project in reproductive endocrinology involving artificial inhibition of tes-
ticular and ovarian steroid hormones which may lead to new approaches to
preventing conception. Another group, at the University of Pennsylvania's
Monell Chemical Senses Center, received support for research on the chemi-
cal signals and messengers known to be involved in animal mating and con-
ception and on possible analogs in human fertility. Powerful new techniques
of chemical analysis may permit more precise characterization of subtle
vestigia] changes in the human ovarian cycle and thus lead to a simple
means of recognizing fertile and infertile intervals. Bristol University in
England received support for the establishment of a research team focus-
ing on the immune mechanisms that operate at different stages of the repro-
ductive process. More exact knowledge of these reactions might permit
extremely precise contraceptive intervention, which would be safer than
such relatively crude methods as suppression of ovulation, with its frequent
side effects.

SPECIAL FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM

This year seven special research awards were made, in a projected series
designed to recruit the exceptional investigator in the search for better fer-
tility curbs. The fellowships went to outstanding young scientists for projects
in reproductive biology: the program's dual purpose is to increase the num-
ber of people working in this field and to attract to it the highest order of
scientific talent. The awards are aimed at encouraging interests that fall
more or less outside the orthodox career-ladder framework. They represent
a timely response to the growing tendency among young scientists to look
for work that has visible relevance to today's pressing social problems as well
as inherent scientific challenge. They are aimed also at the man trained in
reproductive biology whose project interest may lie in a different field: the
special fellowship gives him a chance to take time ofT for an interval of inten-
sive work in nn adjacent discipline, which may result in new insights and
new approaches to research in human reproduction and contraceptive devel-
opment. The. fellowships also provide research and training opportunities
for rereni graduates in obstetrics and gynerology, offering them a stop-
ping stone toward academic careers as an alternative to private practice.
Strengthening obsleirics-gyneeology as an academic discipline is a long-

range goal toward which the Foundation has made significant contributions
in the past through grants to universities and medical schools throughout
the country.

GRANTS IN THE SOCIAL SCIENCES

Increasing Foundation emphasis is being placed on support for research


in the social-science aspects of population problems. Short-lived successes
and near-failures of past programs, especially in developing countries, have
often been traced to a lack of understanding of how economic forces such
as income levels and social factors, women's opportunities and options, affect
overall population growth rates; or how family structure, cultural pressures,
and expectations for the future in terms of longevity, infant mortality, and
economic security, influence individual attitudes toward family size. Formula-
tion of public policy as well as the specifics of action and educational pro-
grams require an overview that the demographer, the economist, the sociolo-
gist, and specialists in related fields can help to sharpen.
Grants made in this area cover a broad band of research, training, and
action. A series of awards for individual studies of the social science and
legal aspects of population issues was continued in cooperation with the
Ford Foundation. This year 26 winning projects were announced, 8 of
them to be sponsored by The Rockefeller Foundation (see page 28). The
program is designed to encourage social science and legal scholars to turn
their minds to subjects that will cast light on some of the questions facing
policy makers and planners in such crucial areas as the relation between
population and laws relating to housing, property, education, and health;
international cooperation on population policies; possible economic effects
of zero population growth; effects of economic planning policies on migra-
tion and urbanization; the effects on population of changes in the status
and roles of women. This year the grantees come from seven countries and
represent 15 disciplines including law, political science, economics, psy-
chology, epidemiology, and city planning,
Also given support was a program of research and training at the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania's Population Studies Center, dealing with the little-
understood relationships between socioeconomic conditions and levels of
fertility in developing countries. The curriculum offers training in demog-
raphy, economics, political science, and sociology, and since a large num-
ber of the scholars are from the developing nations, new graduate courses
are being introduced which will stress the interrelations between population
dynamics and economic development. Graduate thesis research will also be
quilled into these channels so that students from developing areas will bo
better equipped to deal will) the problems facing their own nations.

Formulation of national population policy is the concern of a consortium
of eight population study groups from Latin American nations, known as
CLACSO (Commission for Population and Development of the Latin Ameri-
can Social Science Council), which this year launched a cooperative regional
program of social science research. Areas pinpointed as urgently needing
clarification in these countries include the relationships between population
growth, employment, and income distribution; the relationships between pop-
ulation growth, social stratification, and political instability; the economic,
social, and political implications of rapid urbanization resulting from farm-
to-city migration; and the social, cultural, economic, religious, and political
factors that influence decisions about family size. The group plans to sup-
port research on these questions in the cooperating countries, with a view
to influencing national policy makers. Training of more social scientists in
population analysis and policy formulation is also part of the platform.
The Colegio de Mexico, which is handling grants made to the consortium,
received Foundation funds this year for support of research costs for the
regional program. Participating research centers are in Brazil, Mexico,
Argentina, Colombia, and Chile; the United Nations Latin American Demo-
graphic Center, located in Santiago, will be the coordinating unit.

FAMILY PLANNING ASSISTANCE

Support for the organization and operation of family planning centers


and training for family planning workers both in the United States and
abroad has been an important Foundation commitment in the past. This
year the Foundation continued to provide funds for special purposes.
A grant of $3 million to the Population Council will support the work of
its Technical Assistance Division and its fellowship program for the next
three years, contributing to the Council's yearly budget of about $17 million.
The Population Council is probably the world's most influential organization
dealing with problems of population. The Technical Assistance Division
helps with the development of family planning programs throughout the
world, at the request of governments; its staff includes both physicians and
social scientists. Its International Postpartum Program, begun in 1965 with
aid from the Foundation, has been a notable success, and lias spearheaded
similar efforts by other agencies. The Division is now undertaking a series
of experimental projects aimed at bringing low-cost maternal and child health
care to poor rural areas of Asia, Africa, and Latin America as a practical
framework for offering family planning. Fellowships awarded by the Council
emphasize training of specialists from developing countries, who can con-
tribute to building loeal research and teaching institutions and lead national
family planning programs.

Another important organization which has a distinguished record of effec-
tive work in the field of family planning is the American Friends Service
Committee; a Foundation grant made this year will support its ongoing
programs.
Family planning services for the Albany area of upstate New York will
be developed by the Albany Medical College with the aid of Foundation
funds made available this year. Starting with a core educational program
for medical students, residents, and nurses, the project, run by the Depart-
ment of Obstetrics and Gynecology, will eventually branch out to offer train-
ing over a wider region, including continuing education for physicians. The
Department also plans to introduce instruction for postpartum patients in
hospitals, using a closed-circuit television technique that was developed at
the Harlem Hospital Center in New York. The program will serve a 19- county
area with a population of 2,200,000.
Several other centers received grants for educational and information
programs in family planning, including the Planned Parenthood Associa-
tion of Maryland, the Population Crisis Committee, and Yale University;
and abroad, institutions in Indonesia, Iran, and the Philippines.

UNIVERSITY DEVELOPMENT

"A Beginning,

Middle,

and an End"

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


.he Foundation in 1972 completed a decade of assistance to universities
in the developing countries. Its work was favorably reviewed in June 1972
at a conference in Bellagio, Italy, of the heads of the major international
donor agencies meeting to consider problems of education in the less devel-
oped countries. The International Council for Educational Development
published a rather extensive description of the effort entitled "Higher Edu-
cation for National Development: One Model for Technical Assistance."
An international commission on cultural relations characterized the program
as an outstanding "success story."
The first decade of assistance under the program demonstrated that insti-
tution building was as appropriate and definable a task in higher education
as it had proved to be for the two score schools of public health assisted by
the Foundation in the 1920's and the area studies centers in the 1950's. The
rationale of the University Development Program was from the outset rooted
in the tradition of institution building plus the belief that, for the less
developed countries, the missing factor was educated people and trained
leadership. Needed were not only the doctors, engineers, economists, and
agronomists who would chart the nation's course, but those who could mul-
tiply themselves by training other men tofillsuch posts.
A second part of the rationale was that a concentrated attack on a single
urgent problem, while necessary, is insufficient. Often the only thing worse
than failure may be success. It is imperative to identify pressing human
needs, but no less imperative to grasp their interrelationships. The earlier
triumphs of public health in reducing mortality have had some part in usher-
ing in the population explosion. The Green Revolution of the 1960's will
ultimately prove successful only if its relationship with employment, land
reform, internal migration, and political structures is recognized.
To contribute to university development, it was essential that the Foun-
dation have a plan with a beginning, a middle, and an end. In operational
language, it had "to get in and get out."
The Foundation's plan envisaged at least four distinct phases, varying
from country to country in their application. Phase I involved assistance to
speed the transition from a colonial to a national university. Toward this
end, the Foundation made available on long-term assignments, a few career
members of its professional staff. Also involved was the identification and
definition of discrete and manageable areas of assistance in which the Foun-
dation had the experience and competence to be helpful. Phase II signaled
the emergence of national leadership. If Phase I required a critical mass of
outside educators and institution builders. Phase II called for a very few.

34

low-profile consultants. Phase III marked the putting to work of new capac-
ities, planning for graduate programs, serving the community, and turning
emergent human resources toward the solution of national and regional
problems. Phase IV was the time for giving to others by those who had re-
ceived. It saw first-generation university development centers helping second-
generation centers. Thus leaders from the University of Valle in Colombia
are now at work helping the University of Bahia in Brazil, as are leaders
of the older universities in East Africa at the University of Zaire.

To be effective, a plan must beflexible,taking its cues from the strengths


and weaknesses within each institution and adapting its timetable to changing
needs. Institutions differ and therefore patterns of assistance vary. Neverthe-
less, there must be a plan, a timetable, and defined stages.

Three major developments marked the year 1972. First, programs of rele-
vant graduate studies were launched or strengthened in certain centers, with
great benefit and prestige to the nations concerned. For example, the Govern-
ment of Thailand reported savings of nearly a million dollars in foreign
exchange and other costs through the training of 90 graduate students in the
biomedical sciences at its own Mahidol (Medical Sciences) University, using
SI0,000 as the cost of sending one student abroad for advanced scientific
training. The Government of the Philippines profited not only from training
Philippine and other Asian economists al the Faculty of Economics of the
University of the Philippines, but from the task forces in land reform and
income distribution to which the faculty contributed experienced leadership.
In Latin America, training for health scientists was made more economical
and relevant through the use of the resources of what has become the strong-
est regional program, namely the University of Valle. It is noteworthy that
as these institutions in the later phases of their development reached out to
help themselves and others, Foundation assistance and personnel markedly
diminished.
Secondly, programs that serve the local community increasingly took root.
In 1972, the University of Valle continued to support, as did the community,
the program of health services in Candelaria which had been launched with
Foundation leadership and support. The Bureau of Resource Assessment and
Land Use Planning at the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania provided
continuing advice and leadership in the?e important areas, as did the Eco-
nomic Research Bureau in the vital sector of rural development. The Uni-
versity of Ibadan in Nigeria, which in the decade of Foundation assistance
had moved from a Nigerian component of staff comprising only 20 percent
of total faculty to more than VU percent, launched u new program of inte-
grated rural development in a rural community close to Ibadan.

Thirdly, universities strengthened cooperative programs with governments
directed at national problems. The Institute for Development Studies at the
University of Nairobi in Kenya joined with government economists in an
effort to strengthen economic planning while at the same time giving increas-
ing attention to rural development. In the Philippines, the Comprehensive
Community Health Program, initiated by the University of the Philippines
and The Rockefeller Foundation for a rural community in Luzon, became
increasingly a nationally supported effort. In Thailand, the corn and sorghum
program, assisted by the Foundation and involving both Kasetsart University
and the Ministry of Agriculture, received increased national support.
These and other programs mark the changing emphasis in mature univer-
sity development centers at the same time that new centers are receiving at-
tention in Brazil, Indonesia, and Zaire. Assistance to them will also follow
a plan with a beginning, a middle, and an end.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

"A Wide Range of

Challenges Confronts

the Nation"

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


_LViewing toward equal opportunity in the United States continues to be
a struggle against ignorance, poverty, and racial discrimination. It is clear
that these struggles are not identical but that they reenforce each other and
make the task of finding solutions especially difficult. While significant gains
were made during the last decade in granting legal or administrative rights,
in many instances these rights still have to be put into practice. It is one
thing to decree an end to segregated schools; quite another to implement
school integration programs effectively. Indeed, there are indications that
many individuals and groups which were active in the civil rightsfielddur-
ing the past few years have wearied of the battle and shifted their attention
to other concerns.
A wide range of challenges confronts the nation in attempting to trans-
form American institutions and practices to assure equality of opportunity
and treatment in all walks of life for black and other minority-group citizens.
The Rockefeller Foundation, in its equal opportunity efforts, has believed
that it is essential to select a limited number of strategic target areas for
careful attention and sustained support. During 1972 the program has
focused on four such areas: leadership development and training for minority-
group individuals, career development and professional training for the dis-
advantaged in selectedfields,development of innovative community education
programs, and outreach programs for the rural poor.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING


The special program for training minority-group school administrators at
the superintendent level has received wide attention from educators. Twenty-
nine administrators have already participated in this training, including ten
men and two women who are serving as interns with some of the nation's lead-
ing superintendents during this academic year—the third year of the pro-
gram. Participants from the first two years have moved on to positions of
greater responsibility—three are now serving as superintendents.
During the year another approach to the development of minority-group
administrators was initiated. Working closely with Richard Clowes, Los
Angeles County Superintendent of Schools, an in-service training program
was developed through which talented teachers are receiving training and
on-the-job experience in administrative and supervisory positions. Many
suburban schools are beset by some of the same challenges that confront
major city systems, including an increasing percentage of minority-group
student?. The diversity of (he Los Angeles County school population, which
includes a significant number of Chinmo students, mnkes this an excellent
location for this in-service training effort,

Community colleges, state universities, and other post-secondary edu-
cational institutions are providing new opportunities for minority-group
administrators. Two programs to assist such institutions with training admin-
istrators were initiated during the year:
The member institutions of the Academic Affairs Conference of Mid-
western Universities have developed a minority internship program which
should serve as a model for identifying and training new talent. Interns
in this program will have an intensive nine months in administrative expe-
rience on one of the A.A.C.M.U. campuses, working closely with mentors—
deans, vice presidents, presidents, and other institutional leaders. The pro-
gram provides for seminars; meetings with community, business, and indus-
trial groups; a directed reading program; and activities keyed directly to
training administrators. In addition to candidates from institutions which
belong to A.A.C.M.U., six interns will be drawn each year from noncon-
ference institutions. Special attention will be given to possible interns from
black colleges.
A new effort was also planned to train administrators specifically for
community colleges. These colleges, which have been created at the rate
of one per week over the past decade, are playing an increasingly impor-
tant role in the nation's system of higher education. There is a special
need to develop administrators for them who are sensitive to the diverse
populations they serve.
Attention was also given during the year to administrative and leader-
ship training in other areas:
An internship program for training administrators of government-funded
assistance programs was developed with the aid of outside consultants. This
effort is directly responsive to the needs of municipalities and nongovern-
mental agencies which need minority-group administrators trained to deal
with the plethora of federal and state programs dealing with the people from
whom these administrators have been drawn.
The Interracial Council for Business Opportunity was organized in
1963 to assist minority-group businessmen to develop, own, and manage
their own enterprises. The Council has received nationwide attention for
its program of teaming successful businessmen with minority businessmen
starting new ventures. Of perhaps even greater importance are its continu-
ing programs aimed at developing a larger and more sophisticated business
leadership group within the minority community. The Rockefeller Founda-
tion made a grant to ICBO during 1972 to enable it to recruit six qualified
management training coordinators to give full-time leadership to training
programs in Now York City, Los Angeles, Dallas, Washington, St. Louis,
and New Orleans.

A grant to the Boy Scouts of America has led to the establishment of an
Educational Field Laboratory to train indigenous leadership—both profes-
sional and volunteer—to deal more effectively and sensitively with the needs
of inner-city boys.
The National Urban League, with its objective of encouraging poor
people **to develop the capacity to do, to act, and to bring about change
themselves" decided to establish a long-term voter education and registra-
tion effort as a part of its New Thrust Program. A grant from the Founda-
tion is supporting program leaders in target cities and supplying the costs
of leadership development seminars.
The Urban and Policy Sciences Program at the State University of New
York at Stony Brook has added to its research activities an internship pro-
gram linked to agencies dealing with urgent public sector environmental
problems. One agency with which it has an especially good working rela-
tionship is the Environmental Protection Administration of New York City
for which it serves as a technical advisory body. Support from the Founda-
tion has enabled Stony Brook to expand its program and particularly to
recruit minority-group students. It is expected that this program will serve
as a model for training for new careers, and that the minority group mem-
bers will make New York City's Environmental Protection Administration
and similar agencies increasingly sensitive to the concerns of all segments
of the population.
Foundation support for health career training programs for the disad-
vantaged continued during 1972. Two such grants were to the New England
Hospital at Roxbury, Massachusetts. They were: Open the Doors Wider in
Nursing, and Health Careers (which embraces both professional and sub-
professional jobs). The short-range objectives of both programs are to en-
courage increasing numbers of disadvantaged young people to enter careers
in the health field that are both satisfying and economically rewarding. The
long-range objectives are to help bring about changes in educational insti-
tutions and other agencies that will make special efforts unnecessary.
Additional support was also given to Harvard University in 1972 for its
Health Careers summer program. This program consists of three important
elements: formal work in one of the three basic science courses offered by
the Harvard Summer School, academic tutorial assistance, and clinical tutorial
aid in one of the Harvard-affiliated hospitals or in the Dental School.

INNOVATION IN SCHOOL-COMMUNITY EDUCATION


School-community advisory councils have become an important avenue
for the involvement of community representatives and school personnel in
decision-making at the local school level. Because of the diversity of most

•16

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


metropolitan areas, there is an urgent need for the development of local
educational programs for these councils. And these programs must have
the guidance of competent educators and experienced citizens.
The Los Angeles City School District, the second largest city school system
in the nation, as a part of an attempt to infuse the educational system with
a spirit of renewal, created school-community advisory councils involving
school staff, secondary school students, and members of the community.
Recognizing that there will be a need for guidance and orientation, the
district, with support from the RF, has prepared and distributed instruc-
tional materials to each local council and provided in-service training pro-
grams for school administrators and council members. Another important
segment of this program involves the advisory councils not only in the design
of innovative and clearly defined demonstration programs for improving
the quality of education, but also in developing programs to improve citizen
participation.
These school-community advisory councils can be expected to play an
increasingly important role in bridging the gap between the community and
the school system. The bold decision of the Los Angeles school leaders to
have every school in the system develop its own school-community advisory
council and at the same time place greater responsibility on the local schools
for improving student performance has attracted nationwide attention. The
lessons learned should be valuable for the many other school systems that are
attempting to bring their communities into the school decision-making process.
Through a grant to the Kanawha County School System in West Virginia,
two community school projects of a similar nature are moving ahead. One
embraces both the Washington Junior High School, whose students come from
deprived rural Appalachian families, and the George Washington Senior
High School, most of whose students are from an affluent Charleston suburb
but some of whom are pupils who have finished Washington Junior High
School and are bused there. The other project is at Stonewall Jackson Senior
High School in central Charleston, whose students come from deprived and
middle-class families both black and white. The problems are the same in both
projects in that they stem from deprivations and conflicts in value systems.
Specific programs have been developed by community leaders and educators
with several goals in mind: to increase the quality of education and of life
for the target population, to aid the unemployed to develop saleable skills
and the employed lo improve their skills, and to provide a model of community
education that may be followed by surrounding communities. In this program
school facilities are used for community education programs, specifically for
providing courses for disndvuntugeil adults. The Molt Foundation and Ball
Stale University are providing community school in-service training, eon-

47

sultant services, and evaluation and supervisory services, along with other
technical assistance.
An innovative Open Classroom Program was initiated in the New York
City school system during this past year. The open classroom concept, which
has received wide attention, is built on the philosophy that the classroom
should be open to ideas, and that teachers should act as guides rather than
merely as examples of authority. Thus the student becomes a self-motivated
learner rather than a passive recipient of information. The teachers begin with
the assumption that the children want to learn and will learn in their fashion.
Respect for and trust in the child are perhaps the most basic principles. This
program fits squarely within the design-for-change program which has
recently been established in New York City. Foundation funds have enabled
the school system to move ahead with intensive workshop and training sessions
for key advisors who will then train additional school personnel in the key
features underlying the Open Classroom.

RURAL DEVELOPMENT

Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical College and Mississippi State Uni-


versity have developed a joint institutional approach to bring about social
and economic development in some of the rural areas of Mississippi. A coor-
dinating council, made up of staff members from the two institutions, meets
regularly. Through its efforts, slate and federal funds were obtained for the
development at Alcorn of a program of agricultural research and extension.
This year the Foundation made a grant to the College and the University
that will enlarge the capability of the existing program to improve the lives
of the rural poor in southwestern Mississippi. The grant will assist with the
costs of short courses and training programs for farmers and community
leaders, make possible additional Alcorn staff in plant and animal sciences,
provide graduate and undergraduate assistantships, and support a summer
field program for undergraduates at Alcorn. It will also help provide the
assignment of staff members and special consultants from Mississippi Stale
to Alcorn. The Southern Regional Education Board, which is following the
Alcorn-Mississippi State programs closely, is hopeful that it may develop into
a model that can be used by other institutions in the South.
The College of the Albemarle continues its experiment in educational assist-
ance to the rural poor in northeast North Carolina. Its program, funded by
the Foundation, is designed to: identify persons in rural areas who could profit
by general education or occupational training; motivate, test, and counsel them
in order lo guide them inlo training programs that will prepare them for em-
ployment; and assist them with theirfinancialproblems during their schooling
and help them find jobs afterward.

QUALITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT

"Learning to Cope

with

TV 1 * 1 \T c 1 1 99
Biological Variables

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


In recent years concern has grown regarding the deterioration of man*s
environment, the possibility that with the present pace of industrialization
supplies of critical non-renewahle resources might soon be exhausted and
that options for future generations are being seriously reduced. Perspectives
of environmental problems vary among nations depending on their stage of
economic development or modernization, and among groups within nations.
Within our own nation some groups are alarmed by long-term global changes
including the fouling of the air envelope or the oceans. Others work for the con-
servation or preservation of resources. Still others are primarily concerned
with more immediate and visible problems including air quality in urban
areas, pollution of waterways, and encroachment by urban populations on
the rural areas. A fourth perspective, particularly of the poor, excludes
concern for most of the previously mentioned problems, for the environ-
mental factors they care about are crime, dirty and unsafe streets, poor
housing, and other aspects of poverty or inadequacy of services.
As it has developed its Quality of the Environment program, the Founda-
tion has kept in mind the range of perspectives that exist, and in fact several
of its programs attempt to contribute to environmental improvements. For
example, under Conquest of Hunger, attention is focused particularly on
certain of the basic needs—including more food and increased income for
the millions of poor abroad. Universities in poorer countries being assisted
by the Foundation are concerned with many aspects of improvement of urban
and rural life. At home, efforts under Equal Opportunity are directed toward
problems that many would consider of importance environmentally. The
Foundation's work in population is attempting to deal with a root cause
of the entire range of environmental concerns—burgeoning populations
which threaten to outstrip resources.
Under the Quality of the Environment program attention has been directed,
for the most part, to problems in the United States, Particular emphasis has
been on those with which the Foundation can help in special ways as a result
of its competence in the fields concerned and its experience in marshaling
talent and funds in them.
While man has developed the capability to masterplan major engineering
feats such as the moon and Mars shots or the development of satellite com-
munications systems, he has not had such success in dealing with efforts
Involving a biological component, that is, involving living systems. In the
latter ease, he works not with physical constants but with biological vari-
ables. This is not to say that there has not been success by existing scientific
and educational institutions or agencies of government in the biological fields;
indeed there has. as thKs nation's progress in agriculture and medicine attests.

52

For ecological problems, however, the necessary disciplines which must work
together do not have a heritage of cooperation or concerted effort toward
defined goals that is found in schools of medicine or agriculture. New com-
binations of specialists from diverse fields are now needed, particularly at
the universities. The Foundation has enabled several leading universities
to strengthen their capability to contribute to solutions of environmental
problems in the regions they serve. They include the University of Michi-
gan; Utah State University, which is working on problems of the Wasatch
Front; the University of California at Davis, which is concerned with prob-
lems of land use planning, natural ecosystems management, policy analysis,
and distribution of environmental information; Oregon State University,
which is looking at alternatives for the development of the Willamette Val-
ley; Penn State University; and the universities of Wisconsin and Minnesota,
which are concerned with the future of an area to the west of Lake Superior.
Nitrogen and phosphorus are two of the major nutrients involved in accel-
erated eutrophication of the nation's waterways and growing amounts of both
can be attributed to wastes from industries, agriculture, and households. The
University of Illinois is being assisted to study nitrogen usage in agriculture
and ways by which amounts entering surface or ground waters can be reduced
while protecting capabilities of farms to meet food requirements at reason-
able cost. Meanwhile, with Foundation assistance, Case Western Reserve
University is studying means of managing phosphorus as a pollutant on a
regional basis. Cornell University is devoting particular attention to prob-
lems of agricultural wastes, particularly those associated with intensive ani-
mal and crop production.
It is clear that the fouling of waterways by sewage is a major national
problem and most communities at least have plans for secondary treatment,
which removes most objectionable materials but still leaves plant nutrients
(such as nitrogen and phosphorus), and some toxic materials in the effluent.
The Foundation in 1972 supported work at the City University of New York
and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in their studies of the use
of shell fish to harvest algae produced from nutrient-rich effluent—one sys-
tem of "tertiary" treatment. Attention is being given at Woods Hole to the
fate of human viruses in such effluent—knowledge of which could be impor-
tant either to the production and use of marine organisms or to the recycling
of waste water for human use. At Michigan State University the Foundation
has contributed to costs of a system of sewage management involving sys-
tematic purification of waters by means of a series of interconnected lakes
in which natural systems effect purification.
One of the more urgent and controversial environmental problems has
been the introduction into the environment and into the food chains of non-

53

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


biodegradable pesticides (such as DDT) used for crop, animal, and human
protection. The Foundation is presently supporting work on four different
approaches to solution of the pesticide problem. The universities of Illinois,
Cornell, California at Da-vis, and California at Riverside, are working jointly
on means of creating biodegradable insecticides. Studies at Harvard concen-
trate on the potential uses of juvenile hormones to interrupt the life cycle of
destructive insect pests. Three universities— Cornell, California at Berkeley,
and California at Riverside—are conducting research on pheromones or sex
attractants in insects; these substances may be important in devising new
systems of control by interfering with mating in troublesome species. Devel-
opment of plant resistance would offer the safest approach but this requires
long-term research by highly competent people and can be effected only
with greatly increased financial commitments by state and federal agencies.
The Foundation is helping to support efforts of Mississippi State University,
Texas A & M, the University of California at Davis, and the U. S. Department
of Agriculture to develop resistance of cotton to the boll worm.
A number of heavy metals and other toxic substances, like the non-
biodegradable pesticides, constitute a substantial problem in efforts to clean
up the nation's air and waterways. The University of Missouri is receiving
support for the development of new techniques for measuring and evaluat-
ing concentrations of toxic materials in samples of air, water, or organic
matter. Foundation funds assist the California Institute of Technology to
study the distribution of heavy metals in the environment of the Los Angeles
region—an attempt to trace certain of these materials from their sources
to their ultimate fate in the land, the oceans, or food chains.
Basic to an understanding of the effects of nutrient or toxic substances
on biological systems is an understanding of the functioning of ecosystems.
An interdisciplinary group at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadel-
phia is, with Foundation support, studying in detail a small watershed. It is
attempting to understand interactions of organisms, the flow of energy in the
system, and the effects of nutrients or other substances on the delicate complex
of organisms.
Several other ecological studies and training programs were supported by
the Foundation during the last year. These were the Thorne Ecological Insti-
tute for work on two regions in Colorado, at the University of Colorado for
a study of land development practices in nearby mountain areas and at
Douglas Lake Biological Station of the University of Michigan.
There is increasing awareness of and substantial work on problems of
some cities by public agencies and educational and research institutions.
While .some Foundation-supported work described in previous paragraphs
has application in urban areas, the Foundation is contributing to several

54

© 2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


more direct attempts to solve urban problems. During the past year the
Administration and Management Research Association of the City of New
York undertook an environmental intern program. The California Institute
of Technology is working on control of automotive emissions as well as on
the fate of heavy metals in an urban area. Columbia University's study of
environmental pollution by its School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
has received limited support by the Foundation for several years. The State
University of New York at Stony Brook is involved in training minority group
students for professional careers dealing with environmental problems in the
public sector.
In New England, assistance in environmental planning is being given to
a number of smaller communities by Harvard University, the University of
Massachusetts, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the Rhode
Island School of Design.
Two other activities of national importance received support in 1972. The
Institute on Man and Science in New York has undertaken an evaluation of
federal guidelines for environmental impact studies, and the Scientists' Insti-
tute for Public Information in New York is concerned with research and
publications to help the public assess problems of the environment.
While the initial focus of the Foundation's efforts has been on environ-
mental problems of the United States, it has followed with interest recent
international developments, particularly the Stockholm Conference. Because
of the significance of this event, the Foundation provided funds to the Smith-
sonian Research Foundation in the District of Columbia toward costs of staff
for an Advisory Committee on the Conference. And the National Public
Radio of the District of Columbia was assisted in covering it.

CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

"How to Relate the

Artist to His Society

for the Good of All"

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


hen Dr. John H. Knowles arrived at the Foundation, he began asking
questions of us, and we began to ask ourselves questions. Why should the
Foundation continue to have a program in the arts when giving at the national
and state levels seemed to be increasing? If the Foundation should continue
to work in the arts, what should its concentrations be? Are the arts a bottom-
less pit?
The answer to the last question is. Yes. But then so are the Long Island
Railroad and interplanetary travel, and they may be necessary, too.

WHAT ARE THE ARTS?

Nicholas Berdyaev once wrote: "Everything begins in religion and ends


in politics." No mention of the arts there, but let's see what happens in the
transition.
Many of the nobler aspirations of a society or of an organization such
as the Foundation have stemmed from the lives of persons who denied
themselves to serve others. Many of those benefactors of mankind whose
doctrines and lives were one are called saints. And while the bulk of their
message has been in advocating a particular life style or discipline, their
words and deeds have found their way into the arts and sciences, and, ulti-
mately, from their simple lives into federal poverty programs or Medicare.
In A.D. 1213, St. Francis of Assisi paused on a road and told a flock of
birds that they should praise God for the blessings of food, flight, and
feathers. Tin's simple sermon broke forever the line dividing the supersen-
sual from the mundane. The arts reverberated to this new perception of
nature. In painting, it changed the Byzantine formalism of depicting saints
asflatimages against gold backgrounds to the naturalism of the Renaissance,
as Giotto and Cimabue depicted the occasion with realistic treatments of the
birds and, of course, St. Francis. In poetry, St. Francis's song, "The Praises
of the Creatures," was thefirstcanticle in the Italian language, and was the
source of inspiration and the direct model for the poems of Dante and Pe-
trarch. Social historians speak of the great effect of this joyous song on the
religious feelings of the masses of people during the late middle ages.
The arts were, therefore, communicators, purveyors of a message. In
St. Francis's case it was a message of brotherhood of all creatures under
the Fatherhood of God. Today, however, the arts may be communicators of
bitter resentment or of desperate struggle. Spray-can painting. Is it an art
or a desecration? Is it harmless, like carving initials in a tree? Or do we
object to seeing buses and subways covered with brilliantly sprayed names
merely because, unlike the whisky ads, or posters for lurid films, apray-can
art is unpaid for, and therefore unsanctioned? Is it a pure art? More impor-

tant, is it communication? Whoever JOE 135 or RICO 128 are, they are
voices trying to be heard in a society that may be turning a deaf ear to the
cries of the poor, the needful. The first question should not be, how much
money does it cost to scrub the subways clean, but what is being said.
It is a question of high art versus low art. Is art a commodity or an activ-
ity? Is it the private preserve of a priesthood, or is it a natural language of all
people? These questions are not new, but are being newly asked.
The RF has undertaken a ten-year review of its program in Cultural
Development, emphasizing work in the arts. The review points out that
high and low art expanded dramatically in the 1960's both in terms of
activity and levels of support. The arts became more visible than ever before
and the people seemed to want more access to them. Lincoln Center was a
bellwether of high art at its inception in 1956 and then in 1962 when it
opened thefirstof its buildings, Philharmonic Hall. The concept of subsidy
in the arts—long opposed for fear of censorship—was manifested with the
creation, under Nelson Rockefeller, of the New York State Council on the
Arts in 1960, and the creation five years later of the National Endowment
for the Arts. And two important studies—the Rockefeller Panel Report and
that by Princeton economists, Bowen and Baumol—told us that there was
no real Arts Boom, but rather a depressed condition in the arts in which the
very life of the arts was in danger.
The work of the Foundation-supported Business Committee on the Arts
had stimulated giving to the arts on the part of corporations, and other
major foundations were working wilh considerable sums in the field. It has
been estimated that in 1971 there was some $800 million available to the
arts from all sources. What, therefore, could the RF do with its approxi-
mately $3 million a year; its approximately $28 million over the ten-year
period beginning 1962?
The case for risk capital from foundations had been made by the Founda-
tion's Trustees and this had in fact been a major use of funds in arts proj-
ects—risk capital was made available to help established institutions adapt
to the stresses of a society in anguished transition and to help new organiza-
tions come into being when a need existed for them. A symphony orchestra
could be helped to develop a program that would respond to composers,
or a dance company could be created in Utah. The low arts, the public
arts, were supported through commercial enterprises anH they needed no
protection or subsidy. So the Foundation worked with the high art institutions.

WHERE ARE WE NOW?

In the 1960's ihe arts were becoming democratized—people demanded


more access to them. Museums sprang up in ghettos, dance companies toured

61

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


colleges, orchestras left their concert halls in search of audiences, and theatres
conducted workshops in prisons. We began to learn that art, indeed, was not
for a priesthood of initiates. But we have only just begun to learn this.
The democratization of the 1960's led to the "populism" of the 1970's.
As the clamor for access to arts experiences increased, funding sources
began looking more to socially oriented programs to justify their expendi-
tures. Especially in federal and state subsidy agencies, the emphasis was
to be away from "art for art's sake" and on "what can the arts do for
people?" The charge of "elitism," which has now replaced the expression
"irrelevance" and means roughly the same thing, was leveled against the
long-established arts organizations, which were for the most part in deep
financial trouble—orchestras, theatres, dance and ballet companies, opera
companies, museums. And a fear has now grown up among the "elites" that
future funding patterns, if rationalized on purely social grounds, may fail to
take into account a primary reason for their existence: an allegiance to high
standards of arts preservation. A symphony orchestra must still be able to
rehearse the Beethoven Ninth Symphony if this great humanistic document is
to survive in a "live" form. It takes just as long to rehearse and play the "Ode
to Joy" today, but costs more than it did in 1822 or 1872.

WHAT SHOULD WE DO?

In narrowing down a vast problem regarding the future of the arts in


America and the sources available for their development, four questions
have emerged which tend to define the limits of a future program in the
arts at the Foundation:
How can we continue to assist the source of art, the creative person, to
develop and practice the craft? Should we continue to assist playwrights
and devise new programs for composers and choreographers and other cre-
ative artists which will meet their needs to develop work and have it per-
formed for people?
How can we help to make the arts more central to general education and
schools more responsive to the arts as a stimulus to intellectual and practical
creativity? It has been said that the public school child perceives his school
as a prison. This is not surprising, considering the bleak corridors with tiled
walls and ceilings, the rugless and curtainless classrooms of concrete, metal,
and glass. Is there not a role for the arts in devising many more esthetically
stimulating designs for school architecture? Classrooms with the right walls?
How can we encourage the cautious development of new nonprofit arts
organizations which could fill needs not now met; and how can we help estab-
lished organizations lo be more responsive to their roles as agencies of cul-
tural change?

How can we use television for the arts and for explication of and fur-
ther exposure of RF programs? The recent National Endowment-sponsored
Arts/Media show in Washington, D. C. made a mixed but positive case for
the use of the arts in television, and relied heavily on RF supported
work emanating from the National Center for Experiments in Television,
the Southern Methodist University Television Workshop, the workshop at
WGBH-TV Boston, and the new laboratory at WNET. Cable television
is a tantalizing but tangled skein of promise in which pie in the sky is
offered the arts. There are major issues here to be resolved, but also im-
portant areas of possible Foundation involvement: citizen feed-back con-
cepts and social programs, for example. But the question might be should
the RF back programs or help build institutions in this new field? And
how to work in a field with apparent but perhaps illusory commercial
possibilities?
In 1953, Albert Camus wrote: "the era of the chairbound artist is over.. ..
One of the temptations of the artist is to believe himself solitary, and in
truth he hears this shouted at him with a certain base delight. But this is
not true. He stands in the midst of all, in the same rank, neither higher nor
lower, with all those who are working and struggling. His very vocation,
in the face of oppression, is to open the prisons and to give a voice to the
sorrows and joys of all. This is where art, against its enemies, justifies itself
by proving precisely that it is no one's enemy. By itself, art could probably
not produce the renascence which implies justice and liberty. But wilhout it,
that renascence would be without forms, and consequently would be nothing.
Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society even when per-
fect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future,"
The arts are sources of perception, and communication of perceptions.
Therefore they can be seen not as commodities—ends in themselves—but
as conduits for Berdyaev's doctrine that "Everything begins in religion
and ends in politics." Our question and task, therefore, is how to relate the
artist to his society for the good of all.

ALLIED INTERESTS

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


.here is finally one area of Foundation activity which focuses less on at-
tacking clearly defined problems like world hunger, overpopulation, or social
injustice, than on understanding the nature of the problems that confront us
and formulating the questions we must ask in order to resolve them. Much
of The Rockefeller Foundation's activity characterized as allied interests
serves to lay a groundwork for action where both information and con-
sensus are lacking. A corollary is providing support for other organizations
dedicated to like ends and strengthening the framework within which private
philanthropy can make a meaningful contribution to national goals.
Foundation support has gone to small and large undertakings that expand
and test our information base and working assumptions in such areas as
religion and ethics, international relations, economics, health care, education,
and social welfare. Most of the programs in addition to exploration and eval-
uation undertake to foster liaison between estranged segments of our society
—between specialists and laymen, scientists and policy-makers, business and
the community, established authorities and the rising generation of scholars.
As such programs develop momentum, one or another may be singled out
for long-term Foundation commitment, if opportunities to make a substantive
contribution and provide leadership become clear. This was the case with
the program in Quality of the Environment. Other grants classed as allied
interests buttress the Foundation's major programs. In 1972 support went for
research to develop mean? of health care delivery and studies of the special
health problems of drug abuse and schistosomiasis; international relations
and economic development were also of continuing concern.

HEALTH CARE PLANNING

The provision of health services to the public both in the United States and
in developing countries is notoriously disorganized and inadequate. In the
developing world there is little reliable data on which to base plans for
medical care systems for an entire community, utilizing the financial, profes-
sional, and institutional resources at hand. One program aimed at designing
such procedures is being carried out at the University of Valle in Colombia,
under the auspices of a consortium of Colombian institutions, with the par-
ticipation of Harvard University and the World Health Organization. A grant
made by the Foundation this year will support this effort, which is expected
to create a pattern for planning thai will be useful to other nations in all
stages of development.
Planning to provide health rare for (he poor in the United States is equally
necessary, Evaluation of medical services in Nashville, Tennessee, is being-

carried out by Meharry Medical College, a predominantly black institution.
The Foundation made a grant this year to enable the College to expand an
ongoing study of three comparable low-income populations, each having
access to a different set of medical facilities, which range from a planned
community program run by Meharry to use of the outpatient and emergency
units of local hospitals and occasional private care. Effectiveness of the serv-
ices provided, quality of medical care, costs, and other factors are being
weighed in a long-range study that is expected to have nationwide significance.

DRUG DEPENDENCY

In cities all over this country drug abuse,has reached epidemic propor-
tions; its social causes and consequences are among our gravest problems.
A pilot study on the use of low-dose methadone to rehabilitate adolescent
heroin addicts is being conducted by Cornell University Medical College in
collaboration with The Rockefeller University and with Rockefeller Founda-
tion support. The epidemiological approach used in this research is providing
insights into teen-age drug use and associated antisocial behavior. Other
hopeful signs include the high rate of patients continuing in the program and
returning to school or holding jobs, and a reported decrease in the number of
drug pushers and addicts in the high school around which the study centers.

SCHISTOSOMIASIS

Schistosomiasis is a disease of tropical agricultural populations who live


without modern sanitation. Besides spreading human misery it acts as a block
to economic and social development. Because the blood parasite that causes
the disease develops in freshwater snails, schistosomiasis can be a dangerous
side-effect of water-basin projects or irrigation works in less-developed coun-
tries. It wastes manpower, saps health resources, lowers productivity. For a
number of years The Rockefeller Foundation has been supporting a large-
scale experimental project based on the island of St. Lucia in the West Indies,
aimed at developing methods of controlling schistosomiasis. Using an inter-
disciplinary approach, the program has tested the effectiveness of various
measures—medical treatment of the victims, provision of clean water, snail
eradication, public education. Several studies supported this year, including
an important research program at Brown University, are advancing this effort.
Recent work at Brown and elsewhere suggests the possibility of an immii-
nological approach to schistosomiiusivS a solution thai up to now has seemed
beyond reach. A simple immunization procedure against the disease would
eliminate an especially insidious public health hazard and open up enormous
developmental opportunities for backward areas all over the tropics and
subtropics.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

Three important grants made in 1972 reflect the Foundation's continuing


commitment to promoting understanding among nations and helping less-
developed countries gain a firm economic footing at home and hold their
own in the world community. In order to prepare future intellectual leaders
who can deal with questions of foreign policy and international economics,
substantial grants were made to the Brookings Institution and the School of
Advanced International Studies of Johns Hopkins University to enable them
to associate gifted younger scholars with ongoing research in international
affairs. A grant to the Overseas Development Council will support its program
of research, analysis, and public education devoted to the problems of the
poorer countries and the role of the industrialized nations in their develop-
ment. An award to Johns Hopkins continues support for its program of train-
ing for young diplomats from the developing world.
Other grants intended to foster the international exchange of ideas were
made to the Ecumenical Institute for Advanced Theological Studies for the
establishment of a world center for studies in religion and ethics, based in
Jerusalem; to the National Academy of Sciences for investigation of the pos-
sibility of developing an international foundation for sciences; to the Institute
for International Order, the United Nations Association of the United Stales
of America, and still other organizations dedicated to studying international
problems and promoting world cooperation.

STUDY AWARDS

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


. he Foundation's study awards are closely integrated with its interest in the
agricultural sciences, the biomedical sciences, the social sciences, and the
arts and humanities. Awards are made internationally to outstanding men and
women who have shown promise of making important contributions to their
fields of study in their native countries. Today direct fellowship-scholarship
awards are made principally for training selected individuals drawn from
those developing institutions abroad in which the Foundation has an active pro-
gram interest. For 1972 the Trustees approved a fund of $3,200,000 for
fellowships and scholarships. A fund of $3,150,000 was approved for alloca-
tion during 1973. This fund by no means represents the full extent of the
Foundation's commitment to training. Most grants to universities and research
institutes, as well as to other types of organizations, include funds to permit
the inclusion of graduate students or other trainees, as may be appropriate,
in the enterprise.
During 1972 a total of 386 persons held Foundation fellowships and schol-
arships; 316 awards that began in previous years continued active in 1972,
and 70 new awards became active during the year. Their distribution by pro-
gram is as follows:

ORGANIZATIONAL INFORMATION

2003 The Rockefeller Foundation


MEETINGS

The annual meeting of the Corporation and a regular stated meeting of the
Board of Trustees were held on April 5, and a stated meeting of the Board
was held on December 4 and 5. Five regular meetings and three special
meetings of the Executive Committee of the Trustees were held to take actions
within the general policies approved by the Board.

TRUSTEES AND PRINCIPAL OFFICERS

J. George Harrar retired as President and a Trustee of the Foundation at


the end of June. Dr. Harrarfirstjoined the Foundation in 1943, at which time
he initiated a cooperative agricultural operating program in Mexico. In 1952
he was transferred to the New York office to become Deputy Director for
Agriculture. He was elected Director for Agricultural Sciences in 1955,
Vice-President in 1959, and President in 1961. In April, in anticipation of
his retirement, the Trustees appointed him a Life Fellow of the Foundation,
beginning July 1. He will also serve as a part-time consultant for a three-
year period.
Alberto Lleras Camargo, Chairman of the Editorial Board of Vision maga-
zine, retired as a Trustee, effective June 30. He was elected in 1967.
Arthur A. Houghton, Jr., President of Steuben Glass, also retired from the
Board on June 30. He was elected in 1958 and has served as a member of
the Executive and Finance Committees, as Chairman of the Nominating Com-
mittee, and as Committee on Audit.
John H. Knowles, M.D., succeeded Dr. Harrar as Trustee and President
on July 1. Dr. Knowles came to the Foundation from the Massachusetts
General Hospital, where in ten years he had risen from intern to General
Director—at thirty-five the youngest in the institution's 150-year history.
During the following decade he made what was already one of the world's
best teaching and patient-care hospitals even better, and increased annual
donations sixteenfold by turning the hospital into one of Boston's most visible
institutions. In the process, he captured the imagination of people every-
where. Dr. Knowles is the eighth President of the Foundation.
At the April meeting of the Corporation, Clifford M. Hardin, Vice-
Chairman of the Ralston Purina Company, was elected a Trustee, effective
July 1. Mr. Hardin,firstelected in 1961, resigned in 1969 when he was
appointed Secretary of Agriculture.
Also at the April meeting, Ben W. Heineman, President and Chief Execu-
tive of Northwest Industries, Inc., was elected a Trustee, effective July 1.
Mr. Heineman has been active in civil rights, particularly in housing and
urban development and in welfare.
Except for the retirement of Dr, J. George Harrar and the succession of

8-1-

John H. Knowles, M.D., to the Presidency of the Foundation, there was only
one change in the composition of the principal officer group during 1972.
Norman Lloyd retired as Director for Arts and Humanities, effective Decem-
ber 31, and became a part-time consultant. He had been with the Foundation
as a Director since 1964.

SUMMARY

Appropriations: All expenditures of The Rockefeller Foundation are authorized


through appropriations made by the Trustees. During 1972 the Trustees appro-
priated $45.5 million ($43.7 million after lapses and refunds) in three categories:
$23.4 million in direct grants, which were announced when made; $15.9 million
for later releases by the officers, which are not announced until released; and $6.2
million (appropriated in December) for New York Program and General Adminis-
trative expenses during 1973.

similar appropriations in prior years, came to $13.5 million. With the inclusion of
the $23.4 million in direct grants, the total amount for programs and grants in
1972 came to $36.9 million, in the categories shown below:

Payments: Some grants are paid almost as soon as made; others are paid over
several years. Payments during the year on all programs and grants, and for
1972 New York Program and General Administrative expenses, totaled $44 mil-
lion. Of this amount, $25.1 million came from income and $18.9 million from
principal. In addition, the Foundation paid approximately $1.2 million in excise
taxes on income received in 1971.

PROGRAM EXPENSES ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Since its founding in 1913, The Rockefeller Foundation has paid out a total
of $1 billion 85 million, of which $874 million came from income, and $211
million from principal.

Distribution Requirements: The Tax Reform Act of 1969 requires the Foundation
to pay out all of its ordinary investment income including short-term capital gains,
or (beginning with the tax year 1972) a specific percentage of its market value
each year, whichever is greater. During the three years since passage of the Act,
the Foundation has already paid out $43.5 million more than it will be required
to pay out by the end of 1973. From its founding in 1913 through the end of 1969
(when the Tax Reform Act took effect) the Foundation spent $158 million in
excess of ordinary investment income.

Investment Managers: On January 1, 1972 the Foundation entrusted approximately


$200 million of its securities, in equal amounts, to four investment managers on
a discretionary basis. The managers were chosen after careful study to achieve
several objectives. The Foundation is seeking to determine whether outside pro-
fessional management on a discretionary basis and with a smaller size of holding
can achieve a total return higher than that achieved in a unitary portfolio. The four
managers received identical portfolios (1/15 of the stocks held by the Foundation).
Having been chosen for diverse investment philosophies, they made many changes
in the holdings during the first year, increasing the number and variety of issues
held. The objective in engaging outside managers is a long-term one, and the
Foundation believes one year of operation is too short a time for conclusive
evaluation.

Diversification: The Foundation has continued to reduce the concentration in oil


stocks, and has in many cases reinvested the proceeds in issues which are expected
to appreciate more rapidly but which yield lower current income.

The financial statements for 1972 and the opinion of Arthur Young & Company,
certified public accountants, are presented on the following pages.

ACCOUNTANTS' OPINION

ARTHUR YOUNG & COMPANY

277 PARK AVENUE


NEW YORK. N V. IOOI7

The Board of Trustees


The Rockefeller Foundation

We have examined the accompanying statement of assets,


obligations and principal fund of The Rockefeller Foundation
at December 31, 1972 and the related statements of income,
appropriations and changes in principal fund and changes in cash
for the year then ended, and the supplemental schedules of
marketable securities at December 31, 3972 and transactions
therein for the year then ended. Our examination was made in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and
accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and
such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in
the circumstances.
In our opinion, the statements mentioned above present
fairly the assets, obligations, principal fund and marketable
securities of The Rockefeller Foundation at December 31, 1972
and its income, appropriations, changes in principal fund,
changes in cash, and transactions in marketable securities for
the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that
of the preceding year.
The financial statements for the prior year were
examined by other independent public accountants.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1972

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

The Foundation maintains its accounting on a modified cash basis, which in


effect is not materially different from the accrual basis of accounting.
Dividend and interest income is recorded as received. Investment expenses
are recorded as paid.
Investments are recorded at average cost or fair market value at date of gift.
Gains and losses from the sale of securities are recorded at the trade date and
represent the difference between net sales proceeds and average cost of securities
sold.
Appropriations for grants, program expenses and general administrative ex-
penses are charged against income when made by the Trustees. The excess of
appropriations over income for the year is deducted from the principal fund.
Federal excise tax is accrued as incurred.

2. Federal excise tax

The Foundation qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Section 501 (c) (3)
of the Internal Revenue Code and accordingly is not subject to Federal in-
come tax. However, the Foundation is classified as a private foundation and
as such, under the Tax Reform Act of 1969, is subject to a 4% excise tax on
net investment income including dividends, interest, and net realized gains on
securities transactions, reduced by related expenses. Not less than the fair
market value at December 31, 1969 of securities owned at that date shall be
used as the basis for determining taxable gains on subsequent sales of such
securities. Accordingly, $24,350,297 of the 1972 and none of the 1971 gain
on disposition of securities recorded in the accompanying financial statements
is subject to Federal excise tax. The basis for calculating taxable gains of securi-
ties held at December 31, 1972 is $747,898,084.

3. Pension plan

The Foundation has a non-contributory pension plan for all full-time salaried
employees who have attained the age of 40 or are at least 25 years old and have
had one year's service. It is the Foundation's policy to fund all current pension
obligations as incurred and to amortize unfunded past service costs over a period
of ten years. Plan costs, including charges for current service and amortization
of unfunded prior service costs, amounted to $787,115 in 1972 and $783,492
in 1971.
At December 31, 1972 the present value of premiums payable through March
1, 1979 to complete the purchase of annuities for personnel who retired prior
to July 1, 1966 was approximately $1,000,000,
