The Chairman calaed the meeting to order and proceeded to out-
line the application of Big Sisters of Pinellas County, Inc.,
to conduct a mail solicitation from November 1, 1974, through
December 31, 1974. Mrs. Susan Stanton, President, pointed out
that this would be their first effort within the City and that
the local organization is not presently affiliated with the
national organization but is prepaning to seek affiliation.
After some discussion Chief Daniels moved that 'the application
of Big Sisters of Pinellas County, Inc., be approved. Mr.
Lord seconded the motion. The Chairman requested that their
records be kept in such a manner that they will be able to de-
termine the amount of funds derived from the Clearwater area
and the'tamount of funds expended in this area so that this in-
formation will be available next year. The motion carried
unanimously.
u
The next application to be considered was that of the Pine11as
County Chapter of the National Foundation, commonly known as
March of Dimes, which was continued from the meeting of October
3, 1974, in order that a representative of the local Chapter
might be present to answer some questions concerning the National
Foundation. The Chairman reviewed the application again and in-
formed Mrs. Pat Sawilowsky, the Chapter representative, that our
national reporting agency had indicated dissatisfaction with the
National Foundation and the Salk Institute for Biological Studies
because of their refusal to answer inquiries, among other things.
After considerable discussion and lengthy questioning of Mrs.
Sawilowsky, the Chairman recommended that the amended application
(dates changed to December 1, 1974, through May 31, 1975) of
Pinellas County Chapter of the National Foundation be approved
with the request that the representative, Mrs. Sawilosky, obtain
and furnish a written report to this Board within a period of 60
days covering the following information: 1. Who are the owners,
and who the beneficiaries, of the $2,410,000 life insurance policy
on the life of Dr. Jonas Salk. 2. What type of reports are
required by the National Foundation from the Salk Institute for
the funds that are turned over to the Salk Institute for its use
from the National Foundation's funds. 3. What restrictions, if
any, are set by the National Foundation for the expenditure of
these funds. 4. Whether it would be possible for the local
Chapters to be able to retain more than ~O% of the gross funds
that they collect and not have to submit the present 60% to the
National Foundation for its use. Rev. Johnston requested as-
surance that the Salk Institute is willing to present an audited
copy of its financial statement to appropriate cha~itable in-
