Penney, Campaign Di rector of the 1956 March of Dimes for Duplin County has announced the appointment of Windsor F. Johnson ef Rose Hill as 1956 Cam paign Director tor the Negro popula tion of Duplin County... 1 Mr, Johnson ' has just returned from a March of Dimes planning meeting with officials of the Na tional Foundation for Infantile Pa ralysis in Tuskege.e, Ala. The con ference, at Tuskegee Institute, was attended by 138 volunteer leaders from 11 states. - The future of the unfinished bat tle .against polio will depend in large degree on the success Of next January's March ot Dimes, Mr. Johnson declared today. "The Salk polio vaccine marks' a magnificient . victory over a virus," he said, "but the disease caused by the virus ii not licked yet It won't be until polio crippling is a thing of the past. That can happen only when everybody who is susceptible has been given the protection vac cine affords, and when we have re built the lives of tens of thousands for whom the vaccine has come too late." Preparations for the 1956 March of Dimes among the Colored popu lation will start immediately in Duplin County, Mr. 'Johnson stated, so that an all-out effort can be made to raise this County's share of T the national need. over half of which is for patient care. "Speakers outlined the vital need to intensify the polio crusade at the meeting," Mr. Johnson contin ued. "The National Foundation's school vaccine program is provid ing a large measure of polio pro tection for about 8,500,000 children Hog Flu Causes Loss In Weight ' Hog raisers are in for serious trou ble when flu invades the swine herd, the American Foundation for Animal Health warned farmers to day. "Fall pigs may be very susceptible to swine influenza because of the chilly, changeable weather at this time of year," -the Foundation said. ."Adequate . housing, goad bedding, and proper ventilation should be provided and other preventive steps taken to avoid losses." Swine influenza is not a major swine killer, but it takes a tremen-. dous economic toll because it caus es poor feed efficiency, losses in weight and lowered fertility. The Foundation suggested that farmers practice the following pre cautions to keep swine flufrom their herds during the winter months ahead: 1. Provide well-bedded, well ventilated and draft-free quarters. Overcrowding and night piling should be avoided. 2. Watch for warning signs of in fluenza, such as llstlessness, cough ing, watery eyes, loss of appetite and difficult breathing. 3. Isolate newly - purchased pigs for at least two weeks before al lowing them in the home herd. 4. In the event of symptoms, have the trouble diagnosed immediately so proper nursing and treatment can be started. Steps should also be taken to prevent complicating dis eases from striking, the Foundation reported. C. C. Hester Is New Town Clerk For Kenansville C. C.
