Polio


mean the difference between a

3. Today there is no known
prevention or protection against
infantile paralysis. All that can
be done is 10 provide the best
possible care. Your doctor, your
health officer and your local
Chapter of The National Foun-
dation for Infantile Paralysis
can and will do everything in
their power to see TO it that
your community is ready to
meet an epidemic.
DR.. Gudakunst reported the
sharp increases of polio in the
New England states, Middle A.
lantic states, South Atlantic
area, and the East South Central
states. In the Pacific Coast and
West South Central areas which
have been hard nit during the
past two years, there has been
noticeable drop in the num-
Der of new cases. The remain
der of the country is running
about the same as last year.
While the fact that there are
so per cent more cases in the
country this year than in the
same period in 1914, this is not
an alarming situation but It
should be watched carefully, "
said DR.. Gudakunst. The Medi-
cal Director also declared that
The National Foundation, bas-
ed on its experience of assisting
in severe outbreaks of -infantile
paralysis difring the past years.
is in splendid condition to rem
der real service to medical and
public health authorities in an
epidemic Of infantile paralysis
wherever it may occur. We
stand ready and willing to help

health authorities at mo-
ments notice"
AS a further aid in the fight
against infantile paralysis, the
National Foundation is distrib-
uting hundreds of thousands of
bulletins entitled when Polio

helpful hints for parents. It also
contains a series of simple pre-

Schools



Kelly stated that the Macomb
school dates back to the Civil
War, the Donaldson, Grant and
Court schools are all over 70
years old and others range
from 80 to 70 years.
SEEK TAX BOOST
To meet this situation the
Board president stated that citi-
zens should approve the 2-mill
boost in taxes at the special
election on June II so that the
Board of Education would be in
position to take advantage of
any state and Federal aid avail
able after the war.
"The proposed mill tax
increase on the assessed evalu.
alton of property in Mount
Clemens will yield $4,000. per
year and in five years the Board
would have reserve fund Of
100000 TO meet matching re-
quirements from the state and
government agencies" Kelly
pointed out.
The sinking fund could also
be used to purchase suitable
school sites and for the drafting
of plans for new school build
ings. he declared.
NEED VITAL
KiWanians were told that
Mount Clemens has an immed-
late need for a grade school
building to house children from
the kindergarten to the sixth
grade.
Kelly added that a Junior
High School must also be built
| nthe next five years. He stated
that the present high school
now houses the seventh, eighth
and ninth grades which are nor
mally conducted in a Junior
high.
DEBTS RETIRED
Although the indebtedness If
the schools for this area was
once as high as one million dol
lars, Kelly stated that il has
now ben reduced TO $685.. 900
and with $4,000 been paid off
annually the entire indebted
ness will be erased by 1852.
The Board president stated
that a two-thirds majority is
necessary to carry the PROPOSE
ton to raise the l5-mill tax linn
itatien and that all voters are
eligible to vote on this proposal.
Only tax payers, however,
can vote on the plan TO boost the
tax rate two mills. Voting will
be carried on in the High school
from 2 to 8 p. m. on Monday

Home front war agencies were
stripped of their 1916 fiscal year
funds-including money to meet
soon-due payrolls-in House fight
today over the Fair Employment
Practices Committee.
Blocked by Southerners in eff
forts to obtain funds for FEPC,
hackers of tina: agen.y decided TO
''force a showdown by eliminat-
ing the money for the other ten
agencies. They did this under par
liamentary rules which permitted
a single member to eliminate any
item for when there had not been
previous statutory authorization.
The result was that the War
Agencies Appropriation Bill was
slashed from a. total of $752 ,ooo-
600 to $134, 900 900. The House then
