tients are still respirator cases. OF
the so cases which Mississippi has
had in 1947, forty-two are now hos
pitalized and some will require
many more months Of treatment be-
fore being released to their homes
There are more than so Mississip-
pi children with this dreaded dis.
ease in hospitals today. Hundreds Of
other polio victims must have clint
cal check-ups, braces and other ex-
pensive appliances.
1t should be interesting to our
citizens. stated DR.. Underwood, to
know that since 1916 twenty-five
Mississippi patients have been treat
ed at Warm Springs Foundation. Al
present there are W. Mississippi
patients at Warm Springs.
These figures speak for them
selves and all of this adds up to a
glowing record of achievement for
our county chapters, continued DR.
Underwood. 1t also makes us realize
that we have an obligation not only
to those who may be stricken within
the next year but we must make sure
that those victims of the past years
can continue to receive the best in
medical care so that their recovery
may be as complete as possible.
Polio is one of the most expen-
sive diseases to treat and the need
for funds to continue this important
work merits full cooperation OF
every citizen, DR.. Underwood said
WI must not fail our children, and
we are depending upon the citizens
of Holmes county to give Mrs. Bar
rett their wholehearted support in
the coming March of Dimes.
