How to Get Help From
National Foundation
When Polio Strikes

b. Your Chapter will get in
touch with you as soon as it learns
of the case through your physician
the hospital or the Health De-
partment. However, late report
ing or a heavy hospital load may
delay this Chapter contact. If you
do not hear promptly, telephone
or visit your Chapter representa-
tive. You can ease your own wor-
ries sooner by making the APP
proach yourself.
8. The Chapter representative
will notify the hospital that it is
arranging with you for full or
partial payment Of expenses for
medical care. Adults are as elig-
ible for help as are children. Dis
cuss with your Chapter how much
of the full bill the Chapter will
pay.
a. March of Dimes funds are
used to help the medically indig-
ent-but this is not the same as
INDECENT it includes families Of
moderate income, who cannot
meet the high costs of modern
care Of this expensive disease.
The help is a gift-not a loan.
While families that can pay are
expected to do so, no family is
expected to impoverish itself to
meet medical expenses for polio.
b. Even if you can assume full
costs for initial disqualification, it
is a good idea to see your Chapter.
II yours should be patient who
is severely affected-and this can
not be determined in the first few
days-you may need help later
on. Bills incurred in the weeks
before your Chapter assumes fin
ancial responsibility cannot be
paid months afterward, but the
Chapter will step in whatever
lime you really need help. Have
rank, friendly talk with your
Chapter representative al the be-
ginning.

Close TO $50 pickets marched

dramatic protest against alleged
segregation policies az the halls.
Despite intermittent showers,
the picketS, from a dozen diff

kept up their line in front of
the Huntington Avenue halls for
over two hours. The demonstra-
ton, modified by Club Emanci-

ing up and down In front of the
picketers, called upon the pub

Many by-standers Joined the

to obtain from hi ma statement

passed an antimask ordinance
after Mayor C. L. Drake re-
ported he had exchanged gun
shots with seven carloads Of
Klansmen last week.
The mayor, who introduced the
ordinance, said the robed hood
sters tried to attack him for his
opposition to Governor Herman

a bitter opponent of Talmadge
ever since the latter became
governor.
AS the KlansEnen approached

Klansmen became sheepish and

you must have worked for some
railroad 10 months Of the last 80
months.
Now, we come to another type
Of annuity, occupational disabili-
ty. After 20 years of railroad SER
vice, qualifying for this type of
annuity is much less difficult than
total disability after 10 years Of
service, and besides the amount
of his annuity viii be considerable
higher.
What are the qualifying factors
for this annuity? First, the per-
son must have q connecting
status" with some railroad, hav-
ing worked IL months Of the past
30 months.
This 20 years service employee
need not have lost a single limb
nor his sight, nor must he have a
chronic heart ailment. The only
requirement is that he be unable
to perform the task his employer
requires Of him for IL Of the past
80 months.
For instance, II q dining car
waiter contracted a skin disease
and is unable to continue his din
ing car duty, he then can qualify
for a lifetime annuity, together
with the members OF his family,
depending on him for their liveli-
hood.
The law requires the employees
to report periodically to q physi'
clan for a check-up. If he recov'
ers from this illness, he viii be
returned to the active status and
must then return to his former
job.
"occupational disability" means
that one can no longer work al
the same job that he has held fol
II months Of the past 80 months
He may be fully able to do any
other kind Of work, but IL he has
20 years Of railroad service and
with a connecting railroad status
he is eligible for this annuity.
1t is important to remember
that the service rendered in tht
industry need not be confined Il
one railroad. One may have work
ed for as many companies as HI
wishes.
Next week. we win discuss thu
third type Of annuities, that al
railroad employees look forwart
to, that Of full retirement annuity
after 80 years Of service and &
years Of age.
No two employees, working OF
the same job, will receive thu
same amount from their annuities
