future generations of mankind. As American art collections have grown, skill in exhibition and care in cataloguing have kept pace, but facilities, personnel, and budgets for the
physical care of art objects have fallen far behind. At the same time, the desire to make these collections available to a wider audience by means of loans and traveling exhibits has increased the hazards that endanger them. With museums and collectors in the United States
spending well over twenty million dollars annually on works of art and with the total value of American collections in billions of dollars, The Rockefeller Foundation consulted
a number of informed conservators, museum directors, and art historians as to how health and our national responsibility for the
safety of this vast record of past civilizations
could best be met. These conversations made it evident that the dimensions and complexities of the problem of art conservation in the United States demanded an examination on a national scale. The Brooklyn Museum met this need
by conducting in 1958 a three-day conference on the subject to which it invited a representative group of museum directors, curators, lawyers, insurance adjusters, and the few scientists who conservators,
have concerned themselves with wide
the physical properties and care of art objects. The
variety of facts and points of view that emerged from the cumulative experience of this diverse group focused attention on three aspects of art conservation States. Few if any museums in the United States have adeof the in the United
quate provision in their budgets for conservation objects in their custody. Even if the funds and

sonnel were available, most of the museums still do

have the laboratory facilities that permit the type of examination necessary for assumption of full responsibility for the care of art. The curators of the major art collections
have been trained for the past 60 years largely as art historians at schools where they have been taught little about materials and techniques relating to the care of museum
objects. This situation, when combined with the even more limited knowledge of the buying public, places the primary responsibility for the physical care of art objects in the hands of dealers and private specialists. While many of these are expert and have made important contributions, such an arrangement runs the risk of obscuring the record of what actually has been done to an art object or, in some instances, of sacrificing the original work of art or its longterm survival to the immediate needs of sale or exhibition. Present facilities for training museum personnel in the problems and techniques of conservation are inadequate to the magnitude of the task, being limited, as they are, to apprentice programs in approximately ten of museums. The Brooklyn Museum conferees the larger

Colombia in 1950, in Chile in 1955, and in India in 1956. Individually, these operating units have dealt with the most fundamental considerations involved in increasing the basic food supplies for the host country; from them collectively has developed a pattern of international cooperation which has extended beyond the borders of these several nations. Concentrating on the food plants of chief importance in the four countries, the Foundation's agricultural operations have thus far dealt with the improvement of corn, wheat, potatoes, beans, vegetables, and forage crops, with special emphasis on thefirstthree. However, the officers of the Foundation have continuously been aware of the role of rice in the diet of more than half the world's population and of the need for improving both the quality and quantity of this important food crop. Consequently, the Foundation arranged to have its specialists visit the important rice-producing areas of the world to acquire information and experience which might lead to future action. In the course of this exploration opportunities were found to encourage research on rice in several ways. Two
rice research centers in the United States were aided in improving and expanding the service and training they offer
to foreign students and visitors. Grants totaling $171,000 went to Louisiana State University for this purpose and one of $ 0 to the Texas Agricultural and Mechanical Col3 , 0 lege. Important studies on the cytogenetics of rice at Louisiana State University were supported with a grant of
$ 0 and a most promising investigation of the origin 4 , 0 of cultivated rice at the National Institute of Genetics, Misima, Japan, was assisted by a grant of $ 2 , 0. The rice 0 0
research center at Cuttack, India, received $125,000 for work on the improvement of the rice plant and of the methods of its production. The at Taipei, Taiwan, was Agricultural Research Institute
allotted $ 0 for its research 4 , 0
work on rice. Numerous smaller grants aided research and
the training of rice specialists in Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and the countries already mentioned. A beginning was also made in gaining direct experience with the problems of rice production through adding a rice specialist to the regular staff of the Foundation's Colombian Agricultural Program. A severe outbreak of a devastating rice disease"hoja blanca"in the Caribbean region had focused attention on the vulnerability of the crop in this part of the world. The Colombian project, set up in 1958, is
centered on gaining control of this disease. In discussing the problems of rice production with agricultural leaders throughout the world, and especially in Asia, Foundation officers found that rice improvement is a question of real concern everywhere rice is grown, and that there was mutual agreement about the desirability of an international effort directed toward increasing the supplies of this vital food. In the course of these discussions it became apparent that the Ford Foundation was with this urgent problem. The similarly preoccupied

which can be used in corn breeding in the Americas and elsewhere. This region has not before been fully explored. Arrangements have been made for the exchange of breeding lines among research workers at numerous cooperating centers in Latin America and for several uniform tests of
lines and hybrids. Encouragement is being given to the development of centers for fundamental research to increase knowledge of varietal improvement, soil fertility, cultural practices, and the control of plant diseases and insect pests. This search starts with the substantial information already accumulated by the corn sections of the Foundation's operating units. Perhaps the most important long-range project under way is the further analysis of the corn germ
plasm collected during the past years in the Foundation's programs, together with the perfection of techniques in corn breeding to utilize the new genes for yield and other char-
acters essential in the improvement of corn throughout the world. Previous analyses of maize germ plasm in Latin America have been published for Mexico, Cuba, Central America, Colombia, Brazil, and Eastern South America. A fuller account of this project is given on page 17. As in the previous project, training will be given a
prominent place in the new inter-American maize and wheat programs. Several scholarships have already been awarded which will take the recipients for training to one of the
Foundation's operating units, to the Graduate School of the National School of Agriculture of Mexico, or to the United States.
Mexican Agricultural Program The first Rockefeller Foundation operation in agriculture, that in Mexico, started in 1943 as the Office of Special Studies, a research and training unit in the Mexican Ministry
of Agriculture jointly supported and staffed by the Ministry and the Foundation. The office has headquarters in Mexico
City and five experiment stations in representative regions of the Republic. A resident staff of 15 professional members directs the technical and training activities of the office. From thefirstthe Office of Special Studies has accepted young Mexican graduates of agricultural colleges for practical training experience in scientific agriculture under the supervision of Foundation staff members. Over 500 young men and women have now had such experience for periods who

cooperated closely in their studies of Drosophila population genetics, have now research formulated a coordinated program of
in human genetics that will take advantage of
various unique local study situations and avoid unnecessary duplication of effort. Scientists at the Universities of Bahia, Parana, Rio Grande do Sul, and Sao Paulo will participate in the joint program, which The Rockefeller Foundation is
assisting with grants totaling $120,250. The planning of the national research program will be
the responsibility primarily of the Committee on Human Genetics of the Brazilian Society of Genetics. To enable
the cooperating scientists to meet periodically, and to defray some of the expenses of foreign advisors invited to Brazil and of publications arising from the work, the Foundation has appropriated $ 0 to the Brazilian 1 , 0 Campaign for
the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel for use by the Committee on Human Genetics.
MEDICAL AND NATURAL SCIENCES The
University of Sao Paulo is strengthening its library
resources so that research literature on human genetics as well as on Drosophila and radiation genetics can be made available to investigators throughout Brazil. To help the
university purchase library materials and increase its support of the researches in human genetics led by Dr. O Frota. Pessoa and Dr. P. H Saldanha, the Foundation has appro. priated $ 0 4,0. One of the human genetics research projects at the
University of Parana, Curitiba, that will be assisted by a $ 0 grant from the Foundation is a study of consan2 , 0 guineous marriages in several Brazilian states being conducted by Dr. N. Freire-Maia. In connection with the collaborative program, the University of Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, is establishing a blood serum bank to which all the participating scientists will have access. A grant of $ 0 from the Foundation 3 , 5 will help the university meet some of the expenses of the bank, of visiting specialists, principally anthropologists, and of the field research program on blood groups of southern Indian tribes directed by Professor F M. Salzano. The University of Bahia, in Salvador, where studies of
several Indian tribes, including one in an isolated region of the Amazon Basin, are under way, has received a $12,200 grant for research and field studies. Professor Roberto
Santos and Dr. Cora Pedreira are directing the program in human genetics.
UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN MEDICAL GENETICS DEPARTMENT With the help of a Rockefeller Foundation appropriation in 1956, a program of teaching and research in medical genetics was established in the Medical School of the University of Wisconsin. More recently, medical genetics has

been given full departmental status under the direction of Professor James Crow, formerly professor of zoology and genetics in the Medical School. Dr. Newton Morton, a statistical geneticist in the Department of Anatomy, is the first staff member to be appointed; Dr. Crow hopes shortly to add to the new department a qualified pediatrician and a person trained in the field of genetics and histocompatibility. Some of the problems in genetics confronting the department, as well as other centers of research in medical genetics, are those posed by the increasing industrial and
military use of atomic energy and those found in the genetic background of familiar conditions such as hardening of the arteries, diabetes, and nervous or mental diseases. Other challenging questions needing investigation include genetic variations in lower organisms which condition the fluctuation of virulence observed in influenza epidemics or the development of resistance to antibiotics. The Department of Medical Genetics will meet some of its initial needs in organization and development with the aid of an outright grant of $ 0 , 0 made by The feller Foundation in 1959. Rocke-
UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS GENETICS RESEARCH The excellent work of a small group of geneticists has long been outstanding among research programs at the for research on be the analyze
University of Texas. Particularly noted
Drosophila, the genetics department has what may largest collection of this fruit fly in the world. To
the relationship between specific modifications of genes and the evolution and survival of new species, the researchers
combine laboratory breeding experiments with field studies covering the western North American desert, the Carib-
bean, and the Marshall Islands. Cytological experiments on
Drosophila, the mold Neurospora, and certain higher plants include studies of the effect of chemical and physical events on mutation, differences between normal and malignant cells, and various effects of anti-tumor agents. Plans are under way for greatly increased local support
of the development of research throughout the university. A terminal grant of $ 0 made to the university in 1959 4,0 brings to $310,520 the amount given by the Foundation for genetics research in Texas since 1936.
JAPAN SOCIETY FOR THE PROMOTION OF SCIENCE GENETIC EFFECTS OF CONSANGUINITY Although the high rate of consanguineous marriage in Japan provides unusual opportunities for research in genetics, large-scale studies have been undertaken only recently.

tion's program in the humanities continue to be inIdicated by the first three headings on the opposite page: Intercultural Studies, Humanistic Research, and the Arts. In addition, the Foundation attempts to meet some of the related special needs and opportunities that are, from time to time, brought to its attention. These three, with Special Projects and the support of advanced training
through fellowships and scholarships, describe, in so far as headings can, the work of the Foundation in the general area of the humanities. In 1959 a substantial number of the grants were for ongoing projects discussed in earlier reports under one or another of these headings. It is convenient therefore to take this opportunity to comment on two subheadingsdrama and historywhich are well represented by grants noticed in this year's report. The fields may Foundation's interest in these
be better understood if they are considered sep-
arately from the more inclusive general headings.

Buenos Aires. Beginning March I, 1959, the work will be financed during a period of over three years by The Rocke-
feller Foundation, which has appropriated a sum of $ , 0 for the study.
CORNELL UNIVERSITY RESEARCH ON SOUTHEAST ASIA Since 1951, when it began, the Southeast Asia Program at Cornell University has helped scholars in two of the
major regions of the world achieve greater mutual understanding. It has encouraged Americans to engage in specialized research and training on the history and culture of
Southeast Asian countries. At the same time, Cornell has undertaken cooperative projects with institutions in Southeast Asia and has given graduate training to scholars from the region.
The university spends substantial amounts every year to add to its collection of research materials on Southeast Asia. To provide additional funds for this purpose, The Rocke-
feller Foundation has made an outright grant of $ , 0 to Cornell University, Ithaca, New York. Part of the grant
will be set aside as "free" money, to be spent when unpredictable opportunities for acquisition arise. The remainder will
be used to purchase microfilms of important documents, and possibly to obtain other less conventional materials. For example, steps may be taken to build up a collection of tapehave played a major

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE, NIGERIA ARABIC AND ISLAMIC STUDIES
Educators in Nigeria, which attains its independence in 1960, have become increasingly aware in recent years of the importance to their students of knowledge of African history, culture, and institutions. One aspect of African hisits social
tory of particular interest to Nigeria is Islam and
institutions. Since the Middle Ages, when the Muslim religion was introduced to sub-Sahara Africa across desert
trade routes, Islam has shaped the lives and customs of a growing number of West Africans. Nigeria's northern region is solidly Muslim, and some 50 per cent of the country's entire population embrace the Islamic faith. The University College in Ibadan, Nigeria, is now
planning to introduce teaching and research m three subjects basic to an understanding of Islamic culture and civilization in Africaits language, its history, and its thought. Of considerable value to the program will be collections of manuscripts recently found in northern Nigeria which promise to throw light on the history of Islamic penetration of Africa and the spread of Muslim culture and institutions.

improvement of livestock, its chief source of income. In all areas of the country the animal scientists visited, they found veterinarians as well as livestock men concerned about the essential con-
prevalence of animal diseases and parasites. An
first step toward cutting down animal losses, it was cluded, was
