Officials Warn In
Carbon Tet Use

Many articles are currently ap.
pearing in periodicals and news
papers pointing out the dangers
OF using carbon tetrachloride, a
poison found in some cleaning
fluids, paint thinners, etc.
The warnings recall to East
Cleveland city officials, one carbon
tet death here. 1t happened in 1912.
A resident was cleaning machinery
in rather small room. He became
i'll. His physician took him to the
hospital where he died three days
later. An investigation into the
cause of his death revealed that
the victim had been using a cleaner
containing the deadly carbon tet.
Ii is pointed out by those in
authority, that one of the dangers
of this poison is the fact that it
is odorless. 1t gives no warning
Of its presence. 1t is breathed in
through lungs and skin. 1t damages
the brain, the liver and the kidneys.
The safest way is to avoid using
anything that contains carbon
Tetrachloride.

lets Finish
The Job" Is
Polio Theme

The 1867 March Of Dimes will
open its month-long drive in Guy
ahoga County on Wednesday, Jan.
End, Frank C. Lewman, campaign
director announced.
Starting with many community
activities, and highlighted by big
Teens Against Polio drive, the
March of Dimes drive will be
climaxed by the Mothers March on
Polio on January 31st.
The Teens Against Polio pro-
gram makes it's debut in big style
this year. Representatives from
high schools throughout Cuyahoga
County will band together to fight
polio. Special fund raising events
including athletic events, will be
run whereby teen-agers participate
in, and support their own cam
paign. A special day will be set
aside to be known as TAPS Day.
"Let's Finish the Job" is the
theme selected for the 1857 March
of Dimes drive, Lewman disclosed
The county chapter Of the Ma
tional Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis supports 1348 active
cases of polio, 63 of whom are
1856 victims. National figures
show that at the end of 1856, re-
cent polio victims, along with those
from former years, number $4,000
requiring aid. There were 10000
new victims stricken in 1856. Thou
sands of polio patients are depend
ing from minute to minute on
March of Dimes breathing devices
to stay alive.
Development and demonstrate
of techniques in the treatment of
patients with impaired breathing,
are provided by the National Foun-
cation in Cleveland and 13 other
other respiratory centers.
Through grants supported by
the March of Dimes, the Salk
vaccine has been extended to cover
every American. To date more
than 43 million children and adults
have received at least one shot of
vaccine. OF these 26 million have
two shots and million had three
shots. The effectiveness of vac
cination to date is at least 80ct
against paralytic polio.
The March of Dimes head urged
all citizens in the country to get
their Salk vaccine shots during the
month to guard against the more
dangerous polio season in July and
August.
Coffee parties, under the direc-
tion of Mrs. Nancy Taylor of
Berea, will be held throughout the
month. Mrs. Taylor recently met
with Mrs. C. William O'Neill, wife
Of the Ohio governor-elect, to kick
