Research Supported by Industry through Scholarships, Fellowships, and Grants CALLIE HULL and MILDRED MICO !Vational Research Council, Washington, D. C. HE first list of Research Scholarships and Fellowsh~psSupported by Industry was compiled by the National Research Council in 1929. The N m s E d i t i a of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry published the compilation in the issue of July 20 of that year. Fiftysix companies reported the support of 95 fellowships and scholarships. During the 15 years which have passed, there has been sufficient interest in the compilation to make it worth while to revise it several times. The support of this type of research has steadily increased. Two hundred and one companies in the present list report a total of 956 fellowships, scholarships, or grants for research. Subjects of research range over as many fields as are represented in the interests of the supporting companies. The largest number is awarded for work in chemistry, engineering, and food and nutrition. Pharmacy, pharmacology, and medicine compose the next largest number. It is interesting to note the 20 or more other subjects which engage the attention of from one to forty workers. While there are 54 new companies reporting for the current list, there are about one-fourth of the comoanies in the 1941 list which have discontinued their sipport for the duration of the war. A number of these companies indicated that the funds for support of such work are available for use whenever the right applicants may he found. Corrections and additions to the list will be welcome. They should be sent to the library, National Research Council, 2101 Constitution Avenue, Washington 25, D. C.
