1803. [underscore] 5. The Budget (1) Headquarters.[end underscore] A Clinic of Human Heredity as herein contemplated, to be of optimum use would be large enough to permit of specialized and effective work by a well-organized staff. It would require a well equipped, modern office, laboratory and archives building, fireproof throughout with modern equipment. Such a building, equipped ready for use would, at the present rates, cost between 55 and 60 cents per cubic foot, and for the furniture and equipment approximately 14 cents per cubic foot. If the building for the proposed Clinic of Human Heredity were located on the grounds of the Eugenics Record Office there would be no additional money outlay for land, as the particular property is owned by the Carnegie Institution of Washington. [underscore] (2) Charges for Service.[end underscore] While a free-service clinic would, in the present case, seem to be more highly desirable than a fee-service, it would be a matter of policy whether the clinic would charge a small fee for its services, or would render such services without cost to the inquirer. The following arguments are stated for and against each such plan: [underscore] (a) Free Service:[end underscore] By granting free service the pay or return to the Eugenics Record Office would consist in the supply of first-hand pedigrees of human traits by the persons aided. Such records if secured ay [sic] first-hand by the field-worker method, would cost much more than the clinical service. Free service carries with it no guarantees or promises, and could be more readily limited and guided in accordance with the judgment of the clinic than if charged service were offered to the public.
