GIVES HOPE TO VICTIMS
OF INFANTILE PARALYSIS
Report of Physicians Concerning
Treatment of Children Crippled
by Disease Encouraging.

NEW YORK, October 21.-Parents
whose children have been deformed as
a result of attacks of infantile
paralysis received encouragement to-
day from reports of physicians con-
cerning the treatment of children
crippled by the paralysis several years
ago. One instance cited In symposium
on poliomyslitis at the Academy of
Medicine last night was that of child
who was so paralyzed in 1894 that he
could move only with the aid of a
crutch and leg brace. BY persistent
and intelligent cooperation of his
parents and physicians, said DR.. Reg
inald H. Sayre. he has SO far recovered
that these aids are no longer neces-
sary, and one leg is only slightly short
er than the other.
eff we had said twenty years or SO
ago of that boy" said DR.. sayre. 'as
ing could be done for him.. he would
not now be a useful member of So
ciety. His parents were persistent and
no matter how much he disliked 1t. he
received the treatment prescribed for
him.
