The National Foundation

The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis did wonderful
work in handling the epidemic.
Typical Of their work was what
happened at Hickory, a little city
in the foothills of the Blue Ridge
Mountains. On May 30, 1874, the
first child in that surrounding ter
ritory was pronounced to have IN
fantile paralysis and admitted TO
the Memorial Hospital Of Char
lotte, North Carolina.
Not much attention was paid to
this single case, hut three days
later another appeared and with
in a week three or four more. Then
the avalanche occurred and the
sick children began TO apply at the
hospital like an army.
The local chapter Chairman
called up New York Headquar-
tiers for help.

OPA's future swung in the bal
ance today as the House Bank

mining votes on how long and in
what form wartime price con-
trolls shall be continued.
There is no doubt that the OPA
Act, expiring June 80, will be given
a new lease on life, but Congress
confronts these questions:
l. Shall the extension be for six
months or a year? War Mobiliza-
ton Director Vinson, said this would

Various segments of business and
industry. in long hearings before
the committee which closed Satur-
day, urged literally scores of changes
in the law. Among these was a pro-
posal to allow an increase in rent

Big Fight on Time Limit.
The big fight probably will hinge
on the Republican proposal to per-
nit only six months extension.
Representative Wolcott, Republi-
can, of Michigan, Republican leader
of the banking group, said he would
offer such an amendment. He en-
phasized it is not his intention that
OPA shall cease functioning in six

The Wherry cost-plus farm pric-

However, there appeared to be
substantial support behind a pro-
posal to express congressional in
tent that OPA adopt a flexible
