Cecil Beo,on
crvsodsr: Mary Lasker surprised NeW York
ing She admits canddly that she likes to spend
number of hours week at a beauty salon.
Flowers for everybody
1t was this outstanding lady of New York who
decided few years back that the streets of the
town needed beauty. (She had previously set up
great chrysanthemum paintings in Central Park, in
memory of her mother but these off the streets
Now she wanted flowers where people were.)
Although today nobody will come out and say it,
when Mary Lasker first made known her modest
desires she was met with what might be called we'll
entrenched sCepticism from the city.
What ensued wasn't really knock down drag-out
political battle Rather, it was one of those polite
but steel-frm controversies
On one side was Mrs. Lasker, who kept insisting
that flowers in city are like lipstick on woman.
You have to have some color"
And ranging on the other side we're experts of the
City Parks Department, who had been battling SCOT
and CRIME and fumes for years. Quite understand
ably, the experts had long given up on trying to
nurture flowers in an area where flowers weren't
expected to grow. The experts stuck to their trees
lot simpler, they insisted, and better equipped by
nature to deal with the un-naturelike surroundings
of the metropolis.
Set for O struggle
Mrs. Lasker, in preparing for struggle with the
city over her flowers enlisted the aid of Mrs. Anna
Rosenberg, the former US. Assistant Secretary of
Defense, and together the two of them set out to do
battle with the ''Who-needs?" spirit of the city.
1t ought to be noted that Mrs. Lasker doesn't
argue, she merely remarks in ladyike way that it's
pity not to have more joy in our lives which are
being made longer by medical research.
Finally, after many long hours of meetings and
conferences the experts heaved collective sigh and
said in effect: 'Co plant your flowers. Just remem
Der told you so.'
So, in 1856, New York City settled back and
watched Mrs. Lasker with detached but amused
eye. (After all, it was her money, wasn't it0 And
Mary Lasker proceeded with her plan. She felt that
tulips had chance to survive; she counted on the

high with medical journals, and she is famous for
her "steel file" mind; she can bring up, from men,
ory, the date of medical advance, of a piece of
experimentation or research, statement made
at an important conference, while others are look
ing in the records for the answer
Don't ticket her, though, as lady of science;
you'll trap only one small aspect of Mary Lasker
that way. As young girl, from Watertown, Wis,
she studied art at Radcliffe Cater she post
graduate student at Oxford in EnglanD.
Her house is filled with paintings, many of them
by Impressionist masters. Mary Lasker frankly
loves beauty, and her house, decorated in what
can only be described as many shades of white, is
of fascinating unity throughout, dominated every
where, in hall, stairs and in living quarters, by
the paintings. (Characeristicaly, she likes the out
side to be beautiful, too, and every year has her

around her neighbors' trees)
typical party at her house will find present half
a dozen ambassadors, the heads of couple of broad
casting networks, perhaps Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt
and Madame Pandit of India. She is deeply in
terested in furthering education, particularly in
underdeveloped countries. And somewhere she finds
time to every good play and to hear most good
concerts in New York.
She spends many hours day at the Offices of the
Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation, which admin
listers her health and education grants Unlike many
executive types, she is quiet pretty and rather retir

When city experts discuss this invasion by beauty
which is engu6ng American street after another,
their conversation most often gets around to a
New York woman Mrs Mary Lasker.
A few years ago these questions occurred to Mrs.
Lasker: How could our American cities be made
more attractive and iveable? Where should one
start? Mrs. Lasker started in the simplest possible
way. She put flowers around in the streets, masses
of them, after obtaining municipal permission.
1t was artless, almost naive action but it shone
like good deed in naughty world. Maybe we need
more such simple solutions for problems we think
are complicated, because the exciting thing is that
Mary Lasker's flowers have won the day. They
spreading east side west side, all around the town.
And all around the country.
Mrs. Lasker had what was needed to do the job.
She is wealthy, winning and attractive, and deter
mined. But, on points, she about the last per-
son who could have been expected to notice the
increasing desolation of downtown streets, and
to do something about them, because she is one of
the busiest women in America.
A Iudy with lots Of interests
Her interests so extensive that only her clos.
est friends are aware of their number and complex
ity, and even they may miss on few. As the widow
of Albert D. Lasker, pioneer American advertising
man, she has for years devoted herself he did, to
furthering medical research. Some of the very
feminine and dainty rooms of her house are piled
