The Mansfield Amendment
In FY1968, NSF's budget grew to $505 million but inflation was such that, in constant dollars, the amount awarded was less than the year before. The next year was no better. Late in 1969, an amendment to the Military Authorization Act, introduced by Senator Mike Mansfield (D-WA), confused and alarmed both the defense and civilian research enterprises. The amendment barred the Defense Department from using its funds 'to carry out any research project or study unless such project or study has a direct and apparent relationship to a specific military function.' The impact on the Foundation was potentially enormous, since Mansfield estimated that certain research projects, which amounted to $311 million, could be dropped or picked up by other agencies, mainly by NSF.
Board member Norman C. Hackerman, chemist and president of Rice University, recalls that the Board debated objecting to 'the intrinsic philosophy' of the Mansfield amendment, but decided instead to simply restate its long-held view that many federal agencies should support basic research, not just one. In the end, the Foundation took over sponsorship of some major materials research laboratories, but did not otherwise expand.

The Foundation, after all, had been formed in the earlier emergency of 1949-1950 to help the United States wage the Cold War against the Soviet Union. The Foundation was also supposed to produce an adequate supply of scientists and engineers. Yet now the tabloids were screaming about Soviet superiority in science and technology.

Product Description
Sharp edges can easily damage cables passing through panel holes. Our nylon bushes (grommets) are a quick and easy solution to this common problem, creating a smooth surface that protects cables against cuts and abrasions sustained from sharp chassis.
Installation is straightforward - the nylon bush grommet snaps into place using self-contained locking teeth to secure it to the panel hole. With the raw edges covered, feeding cables through the panel hole is a smooth and simple process. Alternatively, split bushing is available for when you need to retrofit cable protection to existing installations.
Our nylon bushing is available in a range of sizes, and is also compatible with our range of nylon plugs.
