There are some achieve ments of which we can be proud and for which we should be thankful^ since 1954 there has been a decrease of 99% In num ber paralyzed by Polio only two per million In 1963, states V. E. Duncan, County Chair man. In North Carolina 2,500 have been spared, with a saving of $74,000,000. Add this to the % of contributions from North Carolina, and we see that our people have received (5.00 for every} 1.00 donated. On January 2 The National Foundation opened a New Ar thritis Center In the Bowman Gray Medical Center, Winston Salem, by giving 60% of the annual grant for Its operation. Our chapter should be able to participate In further grants. THE BIRTH DEFECT ESTI MATE for this year In North Carolina Is 7,500. It Is esti mated that 560 will die. Our percentage of this number is 35. There is no "Epidemic Season" for birth defects but that many polio cases would stir our people to greater sup port of the Foundation. Who is there that would sa) that the same results cannot be achieved in this new field of arthritis and birth defects, as in Polia, Duncan queries? WHAT CAN WE DO? Par ticipate in the following serv ices: Scholarships, center grants, birth defect and arthri tis patient aid, (recent expendi tures In these two have made a big dent in our local resources.) A workshop for the county is planned for this spring. Our challenge now Is to sup port the Mothers March in your community.
