The proposed Clinic of Human Heredity could begin functioning immediately if manned by a competent staff, if housed in suitable headquarters, and if the resources of the Eugenics Record Office were available to it.
[underscore]Proposed Staff:[end underscore]
1. One eugenist-in-charge.
2. One investigator skilled in the diagnosis and measurement of human traits - physical, mental and temperamental. An expert in "human yardsticks."
3. One investigator skilled in the determination of the rules of inheritance of human traits - physical, mental and temperamental. A geneticist who specializes in human traits and qualities.
4. One field worker, traveling agent and reference librarian.
5. One secretary-stenographer.
6. One archivist-librarian.
7. One caretaker-janitor.
Notes: If a less extensive beginning were necessary, the work could start with one clinician-in-charge with one secretary and aid, housed in a small suite of office or laboratory rooms, if the resources of the Eugenics Record Office were available for the service.
Increased facilities in staff, room and records would, doubtless, be required from time to time if the first clinic functioned along contemplated lines and supplied only a small fraction of the apparent demand for such service.
An effective clinic would require specialists in each of the essential activities and services as above listed, well organized into its staff. One such well-organized clinic could be made the model for similar clinics, many of which would be required to serve the whole field effectively, and which clinics could be established in universities, medical schools and social centers, and possibly independently.
