down the fiber and cellulose in roughage

Mr. McKeever explained that
March of Dimes funds raised each

its portion for patient care and
national headquarters finances re

aid to chapters.
"We have in Cherokee County,"
he said, "a good example of how
the local chapter and national

The polio rate has declined
from last year's peak, but it still is
riding a six-year crest," he Mid.
"Gamma globulin has proved to be
an effective weapon in fighting
polio, but the supply is limited,
and no vaccine has yet been per
fected for general use although
great progress is being made to
wards that goal.
"Therefore, we must not fall
down in our efforts to help pay for
direct medical care for polio suf

The chapter at present is provid

the care of 15 patients stricken thL
