Two Departments Win Rockefeller Benefits

Two departments of the University shared in the Rockefeller Foundation grants for the last quarter of 1951. The Laboratory of Social Relations received $175,000 and an additional $100,000 given for medical research.

Of the Social Relations grant, $100,000 is to be used to study comparative values in five cultures, with the rest to support research on physiological aspects of the development of behavior patterns.

The other part of the gift is for laboratory research on the biological and medical importance of the "trade elements," extremely small amounts of metallic and other substances measured by spectroscopes.
