WASHINGTON-Like an un-
expected after-effect of the
atomic bomb explosion, "Sci-
ence" has become a hot political
issue. There are five bills pend
ing in Congress to foster scien-
tific research. Joint hearings on
three of them will get under way
Oct. 1. The Byrd and May bills,
dealing with Army and Navy
research, are being considered
separately. But the inside story
of maneuverings leading up to
joint hearings on the bills intro
duced by Senators Kilgore, Mag
nuson and Fulbright makes a
fascinating story of trying to mix
pure" science with pure" poll
tics.
Way back In 1912, Sen. Harley
M. Kilgore of West Virginia be-
gan to get excited about scien-
tific research. Organizing a SUBJ
committee on military affairs, he
prepared a Science mobiliza-
ton" bill. 1t proposed making
grants of Federal money to aid
approved research projects. The
bill was notable in that nobody
paid 1t any attention.
In January, 1943. Kilgore re-
vised his bill, putting in a new
section of patent control. Briefly,
he proposed that any patents
coming out of government-fin-
anced research should not be-
come private property but
should be freely accessible to
anyone wanting to use them.
That got him some attention.
A group representing manufac-
turers, patent lawyers and priv
ate research organizations met in
New York and organized a pro-
test.
In August. 1914, Kilgore pre-
pared a third draft Of his bill.
