Betty Ford and Rosalynn Carter have an organization called Every Child By 2. They have been circling this country for about 4 years, trying to raise the awareness levels of people all over the country about the necessity of having the children immunized. Foundations, lobbyists, corporations--all contribute to Every Child By 2. There again, she does not take a salary. Only travel and so on. I do not know--I assume it is a 503(c) corporation. Let us just assume for a moment that it is, a charitable corporation. I know Peace Links is. Is it the same situation? Would it make any difference if she took a salary? What if she is getting $50,000 a year as director?
