A Letter From
The March Of Dimes
February 10, 1858

February ~, 1893
Miss Matte L. Larkin, Editor
Weekly Echo
2508 Fifth Street
Meridian Mississippi
Dear Miss Larkin:
Early reports on the 1853 March OF
Dimes seem to indicate another sue
cessful campaign for funds to fight
polio. In this fight your newspaper
has been strong ally at all times.
1t is my privilege to express for the
National Foundation I or Infantlle
Paralysis the appreciation of a CRATE
full nation to your newspaper for its
generous support and wholehearted
cooperation.
Last year nearly 10000 polio pat
tents shared in the support given to
the newspaper appeal for the March
OF Dimes These March of Dimes
funds, as you know, were used to
provide the best available care for
polio patients without regard to age,
race, creed or color Your National
Foundation begins this year with APP
proximately $4,000 polio patients
stricken in prior years. How many
unfortunate victims will be stricken
this year is not known. Happily it
is known that the cooperation and
support given by your newspaper
again enables the National Founda-
ton to redeem its pledge to the ma
ton. !
Many Of your staff members gave
important volunteer service in the
March of Dimes, in addition to their
professional newspaper responsible
ties. Please convey to them the sin
cere expressions of thanks Of t IN e
thousands who will share in their
generous gifts of time, talent, and
energy.
1t is my fervent wish that 1858 will
be the greatest year in the history of
your newspaper.
Sincerely yours,
