20. lappuse - In my 30 years as director of the Eastman School of Music of the University of Rochester I have attended and taken part in a number of discussions on Federal support of the fine arts, but never before have I seen such unanimity of opinion that some support of the fine arts by the Government is now urgently necessary.
10. lappuse - Foundation is authorized and directed — (1) to develop and encourage the pursuit of a national policy for the promotion of basic research and education in the sciences...
9. lappuse - I am arguing that an education which includes the "humanities" is essential to political wisdom. By "humanities" I especially mean history; but close beside history and of almost, if not quite, equal importance are letters, poetry, philosophy, the plastic arts, and music. Most of the issues that mankind sets out to settle, it never does settle. They are not solved, because...
13. lappuse - Government action that enables protected industries to charge more for their goods in the American markets. Moreover, some consider that accelerated tax amortization for defense plants subsidizes the owners of these plants, that "depletion allowances" provide subsidy-like benefits to the petroleum and some other industries, that Federal non-interest-bearing deposits of billions of dollars in private banks and certain services of the Federal Reserve System amount to subsidies for large private bankers,...

22. lappuse - ... development of the fine arts in time of war, depression, or other national emergency, in order to prevent our cultural institutions from shrinking in importance or passing out of existence...
22. lappuse - It is declared to be the policy of the Congress and the purpose of this Act to improve and stimulate the national economy in general and the smallbusiness segment thereof in particular by establishing a program to stimulate and supplement the flow of private equity capital and long-term loan funds which small-business concerns need for the sound financing of their business...
3. lappuse - We cannot endorse any of them. We do not believe this is a proper area for the expenditure of Federal funds.
37. lappuse - ... Hopkins, the art projects set up under the emergency appropriations made by Congress have been concerned with artists in need. Their primary concern has been with the artist — not simply with art. The wisdom of this course charted by the President and Mr. Hopkins is obvious. When one is concerned with art alone, there is a strong tendency to be interested only in what is conventionally accepted as art. And this usually means the art of the past. That is what most of our museums and collectors...
