ROOSEVELT emoniii DINNER-CONCERT FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFANTILE PARALYSIS BASIL O'CONNOR, President SPONSORED BY The "74" Club • FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT BIRTHDAY MEMORIAL COMMITTEE THE HONORABLE HERBERT H. LEHMAN, CHAIRMAN THE WALDORF-ASTORIA • NEW YORK • IANUARY 29, 1956 FOREWORD "We have only just begun to win." I think that is how our Founder, were he with us at this stage of the long fight against poliomyelitis, might have described the bright- ening prospect before us today. When Franklin D. Roosevelt died in April of 1945, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis was supporting research which had as its ultimate object a preventive of polio. But the goal at that time lay beyond many mystifying horizons; the way led through many uncharted fields. Now the dream has come true. Yet, for many thousands, the joyous reality is too late. The need for help against shriveled limbs, against faltering breath, against blighted lives, continues. The or- ganization founded by Franklin D. Roosevelt cannot, will not, let these people down. They must have care as long as they need it. And there is more we must find out about the polio virus and vaccine through continued scientific research. And skillful hands must be trained through our Professional Educational Program. That is why, in 1956, there is a call upon the generosity and the self-interest of the people of America. That is why there is a 1956 March of Dimes. President THE NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFANTILE PARALYSIS DEDICATION by GOVERNOR AVERELL HARRIMAN Franklin Roosevelt was a man of such greatness, his horizons so wide, his comprehension so deep and his leadership so vigorous that this nation will be eternally grateful for his manifold and varied accom- plishments. But aside from his official greatness, his personal life story stands as an inspiration to us all. To those who have suffered polio, his life is testimony to the fact that man's spirit can conquer any handicap. The development of the Salk vaccine—which gives us hope that polio will soon be all but eradicated—is in large part attributable to the nationwide and continuing campaign which he founded. The efforts organized around his name provided the funds that enabled outstand- ing scientific minds to concentrate on finding the preventative that is now being distributed throughout our land. At tonight's concert, as we commemorate the 74th anniversary of Franklin Roosevelt's birth, we also celebrate the fact that one more dread disease has been mastered, and that scientific research every day gives us new hope that man will triumph over other diseases and threats to the health and vitality of our citizens.

  • Toscanini IV – La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera
    Toscanini IV – La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera Trying to find a balance between what the verbal descriptions of Toscanini’s conducting during the period of roughly 1895-1915 say of him and what he actually did can be like trying to capture lightning in a bottle. Since he made no recordings before December 1920, and instrumental recordings at that, we cannot say with any real certainty what his conducting style was like during those years. We do know, from the complaints of Tito Ricordi, some of which reached Giuseppe Verdi’s ears, that Italian audiences hated much of what Toscanini was doing: conducting operas at the written tempos, not allowing most unwritten high notes (but not all, at least not then), refusing to encore well-loved arias and ensembles, and insisting in silence as long as the music was being played and sung. In short, he instituted the kind of audience decorum we come to expect today, although of course even now (particularly in Italy and America, not so much in England) we still have audiences interrupting the flow of an opera to inject their bravos and bravas when they should just let well enough alone. Ricordi complained to Verdi that Toscanini was ruining his operas, which led Verdi to ask Arrigo Boïto, whom he trusted, for an assessment. Boïto, as a friend and champion of the conductor, told Verdi that he was simply conducting the operas pretty much as he wrote them and not allowing excess high notes, repeats or breaks in the action. Verdi was pleased to hear this; it is well known that he detested slowly-paced performances of his operas and, worse yet, the interpolated high notes he did not write.

  • JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The
    JOHN FOSTER DULLES PAPERS PERSONNEL SERIES The Personnel Series, consisting of approximately 17,900 pages, is comprised of three subseries, an alphabetically arranged Chiefs of Mission Subseries, an alphabetically arranged Special Liaison Staff Subseries and a Chronological Subseries. The entire series focuses on appointments and evaluations of ambassadors and other foreign service personnel and consideration of political appointees for various posts. The series is an important source of information on the staffing of foreign service posts with African- Americans, Jews, women, and individuals representing various political constituencies. Frank assessments of the performances of many chiefs of mission are found here, especially in the Chiefs of Mission Subseries and much of the series reflects input sought and obtained by Secretary Dulles from his staff concerning the political suitability of ambassadors currently serving as well as numerous potential appointees. While the emphasis is on personalities and politics, information on U.S. relations with various foreign countries can be found in this series. The Chiefs of Mission Subseries totals approximately 1,800 pages and contains candid assessments of U.S. ambassadors to certain countries, lists of chiefs of missions and indications of which ones were to be changed, biographical data, materials re controversial individuals such as John Paton Davies, Julius Holmes, Wolf Ladejinsky, Jesse Locker, William D. Pawley, and others, memoranda regarding Leonard Hall and political patronage, procedures for selecting career and political candidates for positions, discussions of “most urgent problems” for ambassadorships in certain countries, consideration of African-American appointees, comments on certain individuals’ connections to Truman Administration, and lists of personnel in Secretary of State’s office.
