ACT of March 4, 187f. Monday, September 5, 1949 Polio Foundation Asks Dimes And Dollars Now To Pay For Patient Care In Epidemic With thousands of children and adults in hospitals today as the result of current widespread polio epidemics, and with as many new cases likely to develop in the months just ahead, the National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis has launched a Polio 'Epidemic Emergency Drive to pro vide immediate funds for patient care. The price-tag on this year's epidemic will be so enormous, according to Basil O'Connor, National Foundation President, that $14,500,000 must be raised to meet the national polio bill. During 1948, when there were 27,908 cases in the country, the highest number since the record total in 1916, the Nation al Foundation and its Chapters spent $17, 000,000 in March of Dimes funds to pro vide epidemic services, he said. With even more cases this year, it looks as though* it may cost $25,000,000 in 1949 to pay for that part of medical and hospital care which families cannot pay themselves. By the end of August, as much money had been advanced in epidemic aid to Na tional Foundation Chapters whose March of Dimes funds have been exhausted by the cost of care as was sent in all of 1948. The nation's total number of cases now is as large as a full year's toll in previous years, with predictions for at least double that number before December 31. Furthermore, it is estimated that a minimum of $5,000,000 will be required to continue helping 1948 patients who still need clinic or hospital treatment. The Na tional Foundation gives assistance as long as medical care is necessary, regardless of age, race, creed or color. The money raised in the Polio Epidemic Emergency Drive will be used exclusively for services to polio patients in all states, Mr. O'Connor said. Contributions may be mailed to Polio, care of your local Post Office. "This emergency drive is our only hope of providing care for patients without slowing up scientific research and pro fessional education programs of the Na tional Foundation," Mr. O'Connor explain ed. "It is an ironical fact that this heavy incidence, severely taxing March of Dimes resources, comes at a time when the na tion's leading scientists are more hopeful of finding an answer to the problem than ever before. "Scientists working under 68 March of Dimes grants at top medical and edu cational institutions are waging the larg est research attack ever attempted a gainst a single disease in this country, supported by March of Dimes funds. We must not interrupt the search for a solu tion because of lack of funds. We must? and we shall be able to do both jobs? help pay for the care of the stricken while finding a means of prevention or control? if the American people contribute now to carry the work through until the next March of Dimes in January." Progress since 1938 when the National Foundation was formed, was indicated by Mr. O'Connor as follows: More than $23,500,000 has gone into a comprehensive research and education program, seeking control of polio and training of experts?virologists, orthoped ists, pediatricians, public health physici ans, nurses, physical therapists, and oth- J er medical workers who make up the pro fessional army now battling the disease in laboratories and hospital wards. At least $58,000,000 had gone for pa tient care, prior to 1949, in payment of polio bills families could not meet them selves; in staffing and equipping polio cen ters for modern care and treatment, in establishing equipment depots in six stra tegic locations throughout the country from which respirators, hot pack ma chines, beds, cribs and other emergency supplies can be rapidly dispatched to hard-hit areas. "We know now that fully 75 per cent of those stricken make good recoveries if good treatment is available," Mr. O'Con nor said. "Surely no one would deny a child a three-to-one chance for recovery because of lack of money." The address is POLIO, care of your lo cal Post Office. Send as much as you can ?as fast as you can?today! o ? Indeed it will be but the natural course of events for cold soon to go out of the war and into the weather.?Greensboro Daily News. The old question, "Should mother wait up for daughter to return home late at night?" has been supplanted by a newer one, "should daughter wait up for mother if daughter gets home first?"?Greens boro Daily News. - T H F EVERYDAY COUNSELOR By Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. "How can I learn to get along with oth er people? I want to be friendly and have friends, but the people I meet always seem suspicious of me. I don't feel that there is anyone I can really trust. It may be due to the home in which I was brought up. Father and mother were always quar reling. Naturally, we children did the same. Now grown and in the business world, I feel that I must learn how to get along with those with whom I associate. I am uncomfortable most of the time, and I seem to make others uncomfortable; at least they avoid me." This frank statement by a reader is one that could be made by many others. More than one such case has come to our attention. First, may we point to a portion of this letter as a word of warning to parents of small children. Don't hang the terrible weight of a quarreling home around the necks of your little ones. If you have dif ferences, don't air them before the chil dren. Their future is in your hands. Don't forget that. A quarreling home atmos phere breeds irritable and suspicious chil dren. Much of the trouble of our corres pondent from whose letter we have just quoted began in the childhood home. Everything in life costs. That's one of the laws of life. True freedom costs. We are not paying for it in this country. That's why we are losing it. The joys of marriage cost. A happy home costs. Parenthood costs. They cost . self-sacrifice, cooperation, consideration. When children come into the home, they should be received for what they are, the gift of God, and treated as such. Many parents stand convicted before the bar of society as having neglected or corrupt ed their children's personality, failed to introduce them to the power and love of God. The troubled reader who wrote us, suf fering from the handicap of a bad home atmosphere, can overcome it. The first step in winning friends is to learn to like people, and stop suspecting them. Expect the best of them and not the worst. Both the Bible and psychologists agree here. The two greatest laws of life accord ing to the Bible are: Love God and serve Him first; love your neighbor and serve him second. That leaves self last. This is sound Biblical and psychological advice. Modern psychology teaches us that we can cacomplish far more with other peo ple by winning them as. friends, than by holding them under the cloud of suspicion or bv fighting them as enemies. The Bible teaches the same: "Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Generally the world gives back to us what we send. Bless it and it will bless* vou; curse it and it will curse you. ? MORE ABOUT ?
