Medical Research Funds Vital Need Lady Works Hard At I Giving Away Money j By GAY PAULEY UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPD — Mrs. Albert D. Lasker, one of the wealthiest women in America, works full time at one big job — giving her money away. Why does she do it? “You have to throw something back into the pot,’’ said Mary Lasker, matter-of-factly. “My mother taught me that. She was a civic-minded woman . . . very public spirited. “It is a natural human trait to want to help to improve the community you live in, and your country. Each of us. our fates are bound up with all others. And if we get a breakthrough in cancer

or heart disease, think how much less misery there will be for a11...’’ | Gives And Works Mrs. Lasker, a handsome blueeyed woman in her fifties, is president of the Albert and Mary Lasker Foundation, which is dedicated to medical research. Her husband, once a hignly-successful advertising executive, liquidated his firm in 1942, two years after their marriage, and joined with her in forming the foundation. He died of intestinal cancer in 1952. Since then, Mrs. Lasker has gone it alone — steering the foundation s underwriting of pilot projects in rosearch on the major illnesses, including heart disease, mental illness and cancer. But her work in support of science goes beyond spending money. She is a tireless campaigner for a better informed public on matters of disease, and a constant needier of the federal government to put more money in medical research. “We spend 47 million dollars for one atomic submarine,” said Mrs.

Lasker, in an interview. ‘But you know how much a year we allot for research on arteriosclerosis, the number one circulatory killer? Less than two million. Cites Need For Money “Now don’t get me wrong. . .we need to spend for atomic submarines. But not enough of our vast national wealth is going into medical research. “We are dying of dumbness. There is so much un-investigated disease. And everyone in science is aware we have enough leads in cancer and heart disease to know we can find the cure, if we get the money.” I pointed out to her that there always would be some ailment to plague mankind. ‘Of course we all have to die sometime,” she replied. “But think of it. . .since 1937, medical science has given us an average : of nine more years on the life span. That is quite a present of • time, isn’t it!” Started City Planting Mrs. Lasker holds numerous po- . sitions with city and national

health groups and is on the board of both the American Heart Association and the American Cancer Society. She is the only woman member of the society’s research committee. As a memorial to her mother, Mrs. Lasker started a giant floral planting project in public places around New York, and in the traffic islands along Park Avenue—‘a touch of lipstick for the city”, she called it. Now the city fathers have taken over the plantings, and that is the way Mrs. Lasker wants it. “The private citizen should be the sparkplug,” she said. “But beauty is just good business. Look at Washington. The Japanese cherry trees attract 500,000 tourists each spring.” The nation’s first torpedo boat was the Stiletto, outfitted in 1887 at the Herreshoff boat yard in Bristol, R. I. < The first balloon tires on U.S. cars were introduced in 1922.
