My principal objective is to es-
tablish a new laboratory and program
in comparative toxicology, which is
the scientific key to the resolution
of policy dilemmas in tradeoffs of
environmental risk and industrial
development. The program would em-
brace a measure of policy analysis
along with laboratory studies and
scientific critique.

Almost everything else I had out-
lined once before for a research center
in this area is already in place at the
University, as you can see from the bro-
chure. So the investment has enormous
leverage. What we need is three million
dollars: two million for endowment, and
one million for facilities renovation —
and initial operating expense. Given
such a base, I have no doubt about sub-
stantial continued support in an area
of such trenchant national need.
