awyer Cites 'U' Research
L Beneficial to Graduates
By DEBORAH BEATTIE I

"The University does not do re-
search for self-aggrandizement or
for research's sake," Vice-Presi-
dent for Research Ralph A. Saw-
yer explained at the North Central
Regional Conference for Pi Lamb-
da Theta.
"Research is done because it
makes a better university and the
fact that we have it provides a
better graduate program and fac-
ulty," he said.
Discussing the possibility of the
undergraduate program disappear-
ing as the graduate programs
grow, Sawyer pointed out that ap-
proximately 25 per cent of the uni-
versity students are enrolled in
Rackham School of Graduate
Studies, 15 per cent more are in
other post-graduate programs, and
60 per cent are in undergraduate
schools. "We expect always to have
a good undergraduate program,"
he noted.
Programs Grow
Research programs are develop-
ing rapidly at the University. In
1939 a total of $412,000 was spent
for University research. In 1961
research funds totalled $31,000,000.
"This is largely a reflection of
the money which the federal gov-
ernment is putting into research.
The University aslo contributes
money from endowments and gen-
eral funds," Sawyer explained.
About 90 per cent of the money
spent for physics research in all
American universities comes from
the federal government. In medi-
cal research, however, about 50
per cent of the research fund is
federal money.
The reason for this, Sawyer said,
is that "no agency except the fed-
eral government is interested in
physics, but there are many people
interested in medicine. Medical

researc funds can be obtained
fromrmany foundations."
'U' Benefits
"Not only does research make a
better undergraduate school and
a better University in general, it
is beneficial for the country and
also the people in Ann Arbor," he
commented.
"The University's research pro-
gram has had a remarkable effect
on Ann Arbor because it has at-
tracted industrial research labora-
tories to the city. There are now
38 different companies, employing
about 3,000 people, doing research
in Ann Arbor," Sawyer noted.

Meeting
Demanded
B~y. NAACP
The local chapter of the Nation-
al Association for the Advance-
ment of Colored People is trying
to set up a meeting with the City
Council and the Human Relations
Commission to discuss an alleged
statement made at an April 9 joint
meeting. The NAACP claims one
councilman said then that "Ne-
groes are genetically inferior to
whites."
The NAACP declined to reveal
the identity of the councilman,
who allegedly made the remark.

MANY PROGRAMS:
Aim of Welfare Agencies
To Service American Public

I

By ANN SCHULTZ
"Las year 390,000 children were
served by public welfare agencies,"
Miss Bess Craig of the United
States Children's Bnreau said yes-
terday in a speech on "Common
Concerns of Public Health and
Child Welfare."
"The aim of the federal govern-
ment is to provide service in all
counties of the United States by
1975-and service that is equally
available to all people in the area.''
Miss Craig cited the need for co-
ordination between child welfare
programs and dependent child
programs.
Finally, the federal government
plans to extend the program for
the day care of children, she ex-
plained.
Working Mothers
The day care plan would accom-
modate children whose mothers
are working. Miss Craig cited the
1960 Bureau of Census data which
stated that one-third of the work-
ing force is female and three mil-
lion children have working moth-
ers.

children is the foster care pro-
gram. "We have recently discov-
ered that the child often develops
more problems when removed
from a very inadequate home and
put in a desirable environment,"
Miss Craig noted. "Therefore the
supportive service type of pro-
gram has been expanded."
This program includes day care
and counselling for parents. "It
also includes a homemakers ser-
vice which I call an 'itinerant
foster mother', someone to stay
with the children in the home
rather than sending them outside."
she said.
Aids Children
The third chilrens' public wel-
fare program aids mentally and
physically handicapped children.
Encouraging handicapped children
to remain at home is a new trend
in this area.
Miss Craig presented problems
in the field of adoption and un-
married mothers.
In 1960, there were 240,000 ille-
gitimate children, but only 14,000
were reported to public agencies.
"This indicates that a large num-
ber were given away illegally and
that more children remained with
their mothers than we think advis-
able," she notedI. "But since we
do not know if children come out
much worse, research is being done
on the matter."
In her c.losing remarks, Miss
Craig cited a need for a greater
exchange among public health
workers in their points of view on
common problems.
