LOCAL rilBUG TURNS OUT FOIL POLK) BENEFIT Epidemic Emergency Drive Begins Today Through Nation "Dance that, others may Walk!" More than 300 persons did just that last Sunday evening at Nell's ballroom and they did it not at the bidding of a campaign slogan but for a reason that touched the heart in a much stronger manner. They were local people, young and old, who did not need to be reminded that dread polio was threatening both the lives and happiness of people throughout the nation. ,They knew it was threatening their neighbor, yes, and members of their own family. The disease has now struck almost forty times in McHenry county alone in the last two! months, an outstanding record, which does not leave anyone free to boast that he will escape. The committee in charge of last Sunday night's benefit, and the many who contributed in so many ways to make it a success are grateful to the general public for its support. A total of $345 made up the night's proceeds, ail of which will be placed in the county i emergency fund, to be used to defray expenses incurred during the current epidemic. The opportunity to contribute has not passed you by even though you may not have attended Sunday evening's dance. With thousands of children and adults in hospitals today and with as many new cases likely to develop in the months just ahead, the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis on Sept. 8 launched a Polio Epidemic Emergency Drive to provide immediate funds for patient care. The price tag on this year's epidemic will be so enormous, according to Basil O'Connor, Foundation president, ^that $14,500,000 i must be raised to meet the national polio bill | During 1948, when there were ; 27,908 case* in the country, the | highest number since the record | total in 1916, the National Foundation and its chapters spent $17,- 000,000 in March of Dimes funds to provide epidemic services, he said. With evbn more cases this I year, it looks as though it may jcost $25,000,000 in 1919 to pay for that part of medical and hospital care which families cannot pay themselves. "This emergency drive is our only hope of providing care for patients without slowing up scientific research and professional | education programs of the' National Foundation," Mr. O'dbnnor ex- ; plained "It is an ironical fact that this heavy Incidence, severely taxing March of Dimes resources, comes at a 3me when the nation's leading scientists are more hopeful of finding an answer to the problems than ever before. "We know that fully 75 per cent of those stricken make good recoveries if good treatment 1b available," Mr. O'onnor 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 Ifc'L.
