The program for the present fiscal year, ending June 30, 1950, is outlined below according to subject, without reference to the laboratory to which each subproject is assigned. The laboratories in which the various phases of the program will be conducted are located at Boston, Ffassachusetts; College Park, Maryland; Ketchikan, Alaska; and Seattle, Washington. NUTRITION: 1.
