INSTITUTE OF LABORATORY ANIMAL RESOURCES THE INSTITUTE LABORATORY ANIMAL RF.souRCES, established OF in 1952 under the Division of Biology and Agriculture of the National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council, serves as an advisory body in the field of laboratory animal supply and quality. It acts as an information center and prepares reports on laboratory animal subjects. The Institute, its Governing Board and Committees, may act on their own initiative or on request from public or private agencies. The members of the Governing Board and the Committees are appointed from among leaders in biological research, veterinary medicine and the breeding industry on the basis of their qualifica- tions of experience and judgment to deal with the broad problems that come before them. Members of the Governing Board and Committees serve without compensation beyond their actual expenses. Financial support for the activities and publications of the Institute is provided by grants and contracts with the Office of Naval Research, U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, U. S. Public Health Service, American Cancer Society, Inc., and the pharma- ceutical industry.
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES- NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL The National Academy of Sciences-National Research Council is a private, nonprofit organization of scientists, dedicated to the furtherance of science and to its use for the general welfare. The Academy itself was established in 1863 under a congressional charter signed by President Lincoln. Empowered to provide for all activities appropriate to academies of science, it was also required by its charter to act as an advisor to the Federal Govern- ment in scientific matters. This provision accounts for the close ties that have always existed between the Academy and the Govern- ment, although the Academy is not a governmental agency. The National Research Council was established by the Academy in 1916, at the request of President Wilson, to enable scientists generally to associate their efforts with those of the limited member- ship of the Academy in service to the nation, to society, and to science at home and abroad. Members of the National Research Council receive their appointments from the President of the Academy. They include representatives nominated by the major scientific and technical societies, representatives of the Federal Government and a number of members at large. In addition, several thousand scientists and engineers take part in the activities of the Research Council through membership on its various boards and committees. Receiving funds from both public and private sources, by con- tribution, grant, or contract, the Academy and its Research Council thus work to stimulate research and its applications, to survey the broad possibilities of science, to promote effective utilization of the scientific and technical resources of the country, to serve the Government, and to further the general interests of science.
