I. w. Miller, project forester
for the Yazoo River Flood Control
project, and E. B. Livingston, as
sistant educational director of the
Mississippi Forest service were
after-dinner speakers at a meet
ing of the Big Black Farmers club
held in the dining hall of Holmes
Junior college Thursday, Decem-
Der 8.
Mr.. Miller stated that Holmes
county has 100000 acres of tim
berland capable of producing 300
board feet of forest products per
acre per year if protected from
fire and overcutting. MI. Miller
further pointed out that the har-
vesting and processing of this
annual growth could produce an
annual payroll in Holmes county
of better than $2,500.000 a year.
MI. Livingston told of the town
of Morton that pulled in more
money last year than all of Car
roll county, and timber did it,
He pointed out that the forests
around Morton have been pro-
tected from fire for the past fiji
teen years.
..
According to Mr.. Livingston g
little less than half the counties
in Mississippi are under a coop
erative fire protection organlza-
ton and there were more fires in
three of the unprotected counties
than all of the protected counties
put ogether. The club members

March OF Dimes Drive
Scheduled Jan. 1851
In Holmes County
M. B. Brown Is Holmes
Campaign Director

With the completion of state
wide organization for the 1850
March of Dimes scheduled Janu-
airy 1851, Dr.. Felix j. Under
wood, state chairman, announced
that M. B. Brown will direct the
drive in Holmes county.
This has been our BLACKLIST
year for %infantile paralysis"
stated DR.. Underwood. "AH
through the summer and fall
months, the fight against it rag
ed, while the disease continued
it's vicious onslaughts. Widely
scattered communities throughout
the nation suffered from its I'M
precedented attacks. AS of No
vember 80, Al, 900 cases had been
reported. Mississippi has been
hard hit, with a record high num-
Der of cases-349 to date.
Financial requirements for pa
| tient care have been enormous.
March of Dimes funds were WHIP
ed out, and it was necessary to
| conduct an emergency epidemic
drive for stop-gap funds to carry
on until the regular fund raising
| campaign in January.
~The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis sent almost
&c. 600, 600 to county chapters this
year when local funds were ex-
! hausted in caring for the stricken.
Mississippi chapters received help
in the amount of $4,000 from
the National Foundations EpI-
demic Aid fund
1--WE are thankful that all Mis-
sissippi polio patients have re-
ceived excellent hospital and me-
dical care" DR.. Underwood said.
Had it not been for the ready
availability of funds during the
past summer, the story would
have been tragicaliy different for
some of our Mississippi children.
! Polio victims often need treat
ment over a long period of time
to restore health and prevent per-
manent Gripping and ~incapaci-
tation - and this treatment Is
expensive.
This unprecedented number of
polio ptaients has created a finan-
cial crisis for the National foun-
dation at a time when reports
from the research laboratories,
seeking a means of control of the
disease, are more encouraging
than ever before. This important
work must not be interrupted.
These conditions" DR.. I'm
derwood added, challenge our
best efforts in planning for the
March of Dimes campaign. The
need for funds is urgent, and I
am confident that all Mississip-
plans will give their whole
hearted support to this worthy
cause.
with the joyous Christmas
season opening our hearts in SYM
pathy and good will to our fellow
men, / hope that all Mississip-
plans will be considering this
need Remembering how far and
how mercifully u dimes have
marched in the saving of life and
health, let us be ready to do our
full part in the coming March Of
Dimes drive"
Emmett c. Reese, chairman of
the Holmes county chapter of the
National foundation, called on all
citizens to give their full support
to Mr.. Brown in the forthcoming
drive.
