DURING 1966 the American Council of Learned Societies watched with great interest as the National Endowment for the Humanities organized and shaped up its policies of action. A basic issue between the Endowment and the Council is the functional relationship of the two for the good of the burgeoning number of scholars in the humanities and for the national interest. The problem of size, jurisdiction, and deployment of resources is great. A relevant observation on it lies in the address given by Glenn T. Seaborg, Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, to the American Philosophical Society (April 1966), and published in the ACLS Newsletter for May 1966. The title speaks for itself: “Science, the Humanities, and the Federal Government—Partners in Progress.” Therein Mr. Seaborg touches upon the main problem of our time—the status of the individual in cooperative planning as we try to master and manage the problems which bigness and speed thrust upon us daily.
