    Statement on National Science Policy
    August 3, 1994

        The return from our public investment in fundamental science has
    been enormous. The principal sponsors and beneficiaries are the American
    people. Our scientific investments are an important national resource
    which we must sustain and build on for the future.

    Note: This statement was included in a White House statement announcing
    the release of the national science policy report, ``Science in the
    National Interest.''
