staff moved with the program and continued to administer it, much of the 
momentum of the program development was lost. To make up for this loss 
will require vigorous and concentrated efforts by staff and scientific con- 
sultants, particularly those constituting the Study Section and Council. 
The seven centers are still in their infancy, requiring tender administrative 
love and financial care. It will be interesting to see them grow and develop 
during the next ten years to physical and operational maturity. The direction 
of their development will be greatly influenced not only by each center director 
and host institution, but also by the DRFR staff and its consultants on the 
initial review committee and Council. In the final analysis, the success of 
the program now underway will determine its future course. A sound program 
well executed will do much to gain the continued interest and support of 
appropriating bodies of the Congress.
