Dr. Jonas Salk Feted by City, State;Tells Press Club of New Institute

By HARVEY ZUCKERBERG
Dr. Jonas Salk, developer of
the polio vaccine bearing his
name, was feted by the city and
the state last week at a Detroit
Press Club celebrity luncheon.
Attorney General Frank Kelly,
representing Gov. John B. Swain-
son, presented Salk a proclama-
tion designating June as Salk
Institute Month in Michigan.
Mayor Jerome P. Cavanagh pre-
sented the scientist a key to
the city and proclaimed June 7
as Salk Day in Detroit.
The guest of honor spoke to
the newspapermen about his Salk
Institute for Biological Studies,
being constructed in San Diego.
Calif., at a cost of $15 million.
He was introduced by Nate
S. Shapero, member of the
board of trustees executive
committee of the National
Foundation, fund-raising in-
strument for the new research
center. Chairman of the board
of Cunningham Drug Stores,
Inc., Shapero is also a mem-
ber of the founders board of
the proposed Salk Institute.
In explaining the purpose of
the new facility, Salk said:
"The intention is to collect

In an article in the current
issue of Saturday Evening Post,
entitled "The Kremlin's Perse-
cution of Jews," Rowland Evans
Jr., New York Herald Tribune
correspondent, declares that
while for most Russians life in
Russia "is getting somewhat
better" under Khrushchev, as
compared with the excesses un-
der Stalin, "for the Jew, it is
becoming intolerable."
The Kremlin policy. Evans
charges, is to eradicate the 3.-
000.000 Russian Jews by put-
ting an end to the special quali-
ties that always hold Jews to-
gether.
The Soviet accusations hurled
at Jews in order to inspire
hatred against them, the article
states, are that Jews area ves-
tige of bourgeois society of
Czarist times, that a :Jewish
"chauvinism" ties religious-lead-
ers to Israel, and that "syna-
gogues are shot through with
graft and corruption."
The Jew is being used as a
scapegoat and is being speedily
turned into a second class citi-
zen, Evans charges. He points
to restrictions on emigration of
Jews as Russia's means of pre- Concentration Camp

groups of individuals . . . who
will address themselves to basic
questions in biology which ulti-
mately may have a bearing on the
problem of disease, on questions
of health, and on the broader
and more philosophical ques-
tion of what man can become.
"It is expected that answers
to these questions will come from
a deep e r understanding of
biology and that by this means
it will be possible to construct
bridges over the distances that
exist between the natural sci-
ences and the humanities . . .
"This will not be a univer-
sity-like institute with par-
ticular departments, nor an
institute for medical research
dealing with problems in dis-
ease alone. . . The dominant
orientation will concern those
fundamental biological pro-
cesses that must first be un-
derstood before it is possible
to deal with unsolved prob-
lems of specific diseases."
The list of men who will be
assembled at the institute will
read like a "who's who" in sci-
ence and medicine. Non-resident
fellowships will also be awarded
to persons of outstanding promise
from the universities of the
world. The resident fellows will
be unencumbered by teaching
and administrative d u t i e s, to
allow them complete freedom for
creative thought in their re-
search. Said Salk:
"Each man will be an institute
unto himself. Nothing is off
limits. Each man will conceive
of that which he will do himself.
These men are coming to the
institute (of which Salk is direc-
tor) because they want each
other. Their inter-action is the
essence of the institute."

Through this framework, said
Salk, will be provided the
"integration and humanification"
of ideas of the "s cientist s-
humanists."
Among the initial group of six
resident fellows, which assumes
responsibility for the'selection of
additional members of the self-
governing faculty, are Seymour
Benzer, Stuart Professor of

Biology at Purdue University;
Jacob Bronowski, formerly Car-
negie Visiting Prof e s s o r at
M.I.T.; and Melvin Cohn, for-
merly professor of biochemistry
at Stanford University and pres-
ently associated with the Pasteur
Institute.
The Salk Institute for Biologi-
cal Studies- is expected to be in
operation before 1964.
