March OF Dimes
Campaign Gets
Increased Support

Tulsa, Oklahoma-More Negro

women's, labor, sports and school
groups are integrated in local
March Of Dimes campaign organi-
cations throughout the nation, than
in any previous Embarrassing drive
of the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis, Charles H.
Bynum, the National Foundations
Director of Interracial Activities,
revealed speaking to volunteer
workers at Tulsa, Oklahoma.
"The 1949 epidemic was the
most severe in the recorded his
tory of the crippling disease" Mr..
Bynum said, land the epidemic re-
quired the National Foundation,
for the first time to make an
appeal for funds" All
reserves were thrown into the
fight against polio and results of
the emergency appeal hardly
served to provide funds until the
1850 March Of Dimes, he disclosed.
"The National Foundation faces
a critical point" he said, "and
every volunteer must work harder
to insure. adequate funds to enable
the National Foundation to con-
tinue its research, patient care
and epidemic aid program"
During the height of the 1949
epidemic the costs rose to 100000
per day for patients bills alone.
Nearly 100000 of March of
Dimes money was sent to local
chapters whose own treasures had
been wiped out" Continuing, Mr..
Bynum declared: "The American
people want the National Founda-
ton to continue to provide SER
vices to polio patients in Tulsa and
other communities, and / am con-
fident the people will exert every
effort to make the 1850 March of
Dimes double the success of the
1949 campaign for funds.

Fifteen states Require no Sight

The highway death toll could
be cut drastically if higher visual
standards for automobile drivers
were enforced, is the conclusion
drawn by the American Optome-
trio Association, which is working
with state driver license officials
throughout the country.
Fifteen states require no vision
tests before issuing drivers Ii
censes, according to DR.. Kenneth
H. Macpherson, Stockton, Califor-
mia, chairman of the Associations
Committee on Motorists Vision.
Most of the tests in the other SO
states are admittedly unstandard-

In a three-year project just
completed, the optometrists and

veloped recommended tests to dis
cover the drivers whose vision
may endanger highway safety
Their findings have been jointly
published in a Manual on Driv-

The principal elements of good
vision for driving outlined in the
Manual are:

not been for losses incurred in the pre-

the deficit in the previous year was that

Brannan Must Decide
Whether 10 Restore
Pork Price Supports
BY the Associated Press

How much meat Americans eat
next year and what prices they
pay for it may hinge upon de-
cisions to be made by Secretary
of Agriculture Brannan within
the next few weeks.
He must decide whether the
Government will re-establish price
supports to encourage farmers to
produce more hogs.
Economists agree that the de.
fense program will increase en-
ployment and consumer buying
power.
The big question facing Mr..
Brannan is whether farmers, of
their own accord, will increase
production of meat animals
enough to meet the prospective
demand without a Government
promise to protect them against
a sudden sharp price decline.
Like Wickard's Position.
If not, the result could be bid
ding up of meat prices under the
influence of consumer competi-
ton for inadequate supplies-and
possibly return Of price controls
and some form of rationing.
Mr.. Brannan finds himself in
somewhat the same position into
which former Secretary of Agri-
culture Claude Wickard was
tossed by the outbreak of World
War II in Europe. 1t became
quite apparent to Mr.. Wickard
that the demand for meat would
increase.
Seeking to encourage farmers to
step up production, he set up price
supports for hogs. This was an
unprecedented move, but it ac-
complished the purpose.
Calls 1t Anti-Infiationary.
Mr.. Brannan has said that a
continuing abundance of food for
civilians is a powerful weapon
against inf1ation-and our best
means of staving off as long as
possible the necessity for price
controls and rationing."
He must decide whether the
Government should take steps to
encourage meat production be-
yond the current annual rate of
about LAG pounds for each person.
During the last war, when there
were shortages of non-food goods,
consumption jumped to 155 pounds
and would have gone higher had
supplies been larger.

"Color is a powerful thing" he

P. Kislenko, Russian representa-
tive on the Allied Council fol-
Japan, returned to regularly
scheduled Council meeting today
for the first time since the Soviet
walkout last April 26.
The meeting lasted 80 minutes
and was mainly occupied by a
brief. but bitter. exchange be-
tween the Soviet general and the
representative of the Chinese Ma
tionalist government, Chen zen
Chiun.
There was no mention of
Chinese Communist intervention
in Korea.
Chen recalled that the Russians
first boycotted the Council ses-
sions as result Of questions over
the fate of $4,000 japanese
prisoners of war allegedly still
held by the Russians. He asked
if Gen. Kislenko had any further
report to make on the question.
Gen. Kislenko replied by chal-
longing the right of the Chinese

pear at the meeting.

it was improper and inappro-
