...since 1935, found that scientists are individualists, hard to team up, harder still to hold to a program of research. Moreover, the Institute had no clear program. Some individual divisions, notably Dr. Gesell's, turned up much valuable data, but the Institute as a whole wandered all over creation. Yale's famed Anthropologist Albert Galloway Keller sneered at the whole affair...
Celotex was Bror Dahlberg's creation. In 1911, having been everything from a high-speed typist to freight-rate counselor, he found himself vice president of Minnesota & Ontario Paper Co. One of its by-products was a rigid insulating board called Insulite.

By 1929 annual sales of their brown insulating board had reached $1,479,000 and President Dahlberg...

Such an exhibition as this can do nothing but confirm the idea that here at last is a national American art, appealing to all regardless of position, political views, race, or creed. As long as Disney keeps the same sane attitude towards his creation and as long as he refuses to let prejudice or affectation have a place in it, there is little that can displace it from its high position in American life...
