Abstract
A MEETING of the Executive Board of the American Academy of Pediatrics was held at the Palmer House, Chicago, June 18, 1950. The meeting convened at 9:15 A.M., Dr. Edward B. Shaw, President, presiding. The following were present: Drs. Edward B. Shaw, Paul W. Beaven, Clifford G. Grulee, Edgar E. Martmer, Harry Bakwin, Philip S. Barba, Crawford Bost, Roger L. J. Kennedy, Arthur H. London, Jr., Thomas J. McElhenney, Oliver L. Stringfield and Edward A. Wishropp. Dr. Gerti Dooneief was granted a year's extension of her leave of absence. After discussion of a letter from the White House Conference on Children and Youth, it was decided to give a donation of $100.00 to this project. Dr. Martmer read a letter from Mr. H. E. O. Heineman of Pet Milk Company asking for some copies of the current News-Letter to be distributed to their detail men. After discussion, Dr. Martmer was authorized to write him granting permission to distribute the News-Letter to their detail men provided it was not used for publicity purposes. The budget for the ICH Committee, as submitted by Dr. Warren R. Sisson, was approved after exhaustive discussion by the Executive Board. There was much discussion as to whether the Budget Committee should be renamed the "Budget and Finance Committee." The final decision was left for the Fall meeting. Dr. Grulee reported on his trip to New York with respect to the funds received from the Babe Ruth Foundation which were administered by the American Cancer Society and contributed to the Tumor Registry Committee under Dr. Harold W. Dargeon. No definite commitment was received.
