and there is operated for 80
long years.
Then, IS years ago, in 1887, a
27-year-old medical man, DIR.
Joseph j. KinyOun, opened a
One-rOOm Laboratory of Hy-
giene at the Staten Island Hos
pital. During his first year, he
demonstrated VibriO cholera in
immigrants and marked the
first Public Health Service re-
cOgnitiOn of the existence of
bacteria.
But, DR.. Kinyoun was more
than a medical researcher. He
was a man of vision and pro-
phecy for he predicted "the
scope of work of this character
will constantly widen; its util-
ity is unquestionable."
Four years later, DR.. Kin
youn's small laboratory was
moved to Washington and in
1902, became known as the Pub
lie Health and Marine Hospital
Service. 1t received a handsome
$4,000 congressional appropria-
ton for its work, added a Bio
logic Control Division. An Ad-
visory Board Of competent ex-
perts" was created to counsel
with it. In 1912, Public Health

came the United States Public
Health Service.

What has become known
as the capital of United
States medical research, the
National Institutes of Health
with its 48 buildings of brick,
steel, and glass sprawling
over the Montgomery coun-
tryside, and some even
reaching skyward, had its
beginning 165 years ago.
The year was 1898. In that
year the capital of the United
States was Philadelphia; the
federal city of Washington was
rising from the mudflats and
malaria-ridden swamps of the
low-lying regions of the Poto-
mac; Abigail Adams was two
years away from hanging the
family wash in what came to be
the East Ballroom of the White
House; George Washington, re-
tired the year before to Mt.
Vernon, took over as command
er-in-chief of the Army when
the United States went to war
with France, and pompous John
Adams was occupying the presi-
dental chair.
1t was in that year that
Adams signed a bill establish
ing a Marine Hospital Service
for merchant seamen on Staten
Island. The following year, in
1893, Congress amended the

MFR. Chisholm said the indus

would make timber owners pay
higher taxes on the timber they
cut.
Since the mid-194Os, he said
woodland owners have paid
capital gains on the wood they
cut and sold. Under the Dillon
proposal. he said, they would
be subject to regular income
taxes and thus taxed far more
heavily.
He said "this is a typical ex-
ample Of what Federal pro-

It is the military contracts
between $40 million and $50
million that are so difficult to
negotiate and to settle, say
Pentagon fiscal officials. Those
that are smaller often can be
fixed priced or final prices fixed
shortly after the contract Is be-
gun. Larger contracts, where
seldom either side can estimate
accurately, are necessarily some
form of cost reimbursement
type, although usually not
called cost-plus-fee.
These facts are shown by re-
cent Navy figures on their ac-
tive negotiated contracts. These
total 336 with a value Of ST.
4,229, 900. OF these, 1852 valued
at $3,528,867,000 have passed
the target dates when final
prices should be fixed. The tar
get dates often are placed at
a time when 40 per cent Of the
contract is completed.

was to continue the building pro-

floor through the efforts of the
concientious members who made
the trip. Putting the floor in was
a rewarding but laborous job.
