Main , Waynesville Letters to the Editor ? ? iconunucn irom race ?| ganization like our own the right to determine the most effective program for meeting the health and welfare causes for which it exists. It is the conviction of the National Foundation that a sep arate March of Dimes is inherent in its ability to properly serve polio patients' needs, conduct comprehensive research, and properly inform the general pub lic with facts concerning the dis ease. Following are some of the basic reasons why the National Found ation maintains its chartered pol icy of a separate March of Dimes: 1. Public awareness: A sep arate March of Dimes tells the story of polio to the American people and educates them to fight the disease. This ability would be reduced or lost in federation. 2. Fluidity of funds: A sep arate March of Dimes is essential because conditions over the coun try have to be met as they arise. ( and this requires mobility of funds, equipment and personnel. Any arbitrary regulation of budgets and expenditure at local community level (as is necessary in federation) would hamper the National Foundation's epidemic aid program as well as itf long term research and education pro grams. 3. Voluntary opportunity: A separate March of Dimes offers an individual the opportunity to vol untarily support a great humani tarian program according to his some of your donors request the choice and ability. Individuals re tain the right to endorse or with hold support according to their approval or disapproval of the program. This right as it relates Howard W. Shook. Mark Roy Mor gan, Jr., Thomas O.

All persons indebted to said estate will please make immediate payment. This the 22nd day of February, 1956. Joseph Higdon, Administrator of the Estate of Florence Osborne, deceased. 2616?F 23 M 1-8-15-22-29 | to Individual causes cannot be maintained in federation. The National Foundation believes the freedom of choice must be main taind both for the agency and giver. 4. Success: In 1938, the Am erican public gave the first sep arate March of Dimes a gross of over $1,500,000.00 to fight polio. In 1955 it gave a separate March of Dimes a gross of over $52,000. 000.00 for a comparable drive. This is an unprecedented accomp lishment for a truly voluntary health agency?not because of the amount raised, put because of the vital work this money made pos sible. The National Foundation does not exist to raise money ? it raises money to exist so that it may carry on its work. The Na tional Foundation, now on -the threshold of conquering a crip pling disease, cannot abandon this successful method of separate financing. Please accept my thanks for your interest in the Haywood County March of Dimes and for your cooperation in helping in form the citizens of the Waynes ville area that the March of Dimes is separte from the United Fund.
