the new role of our federal government
as the major patron of research in
science and medicine. Few people
realize that in 1961, in support of
all university research in science
and medicine, three dollars out of
every four came from the federal
government. I need hardly point out
that this has taken place without
undue enlargement of government
control that American scientists
remain second to none in their
independence, and even in their
rugged individualism.
Governmen's in this country is
nearly alwags related to other forcés.
Document source description
This file contains materials collected by the office of President John F. Kennedy's secretary, Evelyn Lincoln, concerning President Kennedy's remarks at the 1962 Yale University graduation ceremony. In his speech the President thanks the University for the honorary degree bestowed upon him, and discusses three areas of domestic concern where the prevalence of myth dangerously impedes progress: fiscal policy, confidence in an administration, and the concept of "big government." Materials in this folder include various memoranda of suggested talking points, a draft by Special Assistant to the President and speechwriter Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., a press copy, and a reading copy of the speech with handwritten notations by the President, as well as a luncheon menu, program for the commencement exercises, and an additional transcript of the speech published by Yale University.
