The Committee for Research in Problems of Sex of the National Research Council, supported by the Rockefeller Foundation, devoted only about $35,000 a year to reproductive research. Somewhat larger amounts were given by the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and the Sunnen Foundation, the latter confined to improvement and testing of spermicidal compounds in Puerto Rico (Robert Sheehan and Elizabeth Weil-Fisher, “The Birth Control ‘Pill,’” Fortune, April 1958).
