March OF Dimes
Plans Widened
Research Studies

March of Dimes funds in 1853
will be used for breaking new
medical scientific ground in the
broadened research program of the
National Foundation.
Scientists under National Foun-
dation grants have made some of
the leading medical advances of
our time. They have blazed new
trails not only in the field of polio
and polio prevention but also in
many other areas of medical knowl-
edge.
Among these scientific milestones
are important break-throughs in
knowledge of sleeping sickness;
data on how insects transmit dis
ease to man; the first successful
method of growing polio virus in
nonnervous tissue, without which
the Salk vaccine could not have
been developed; a discovery of a
whole group of hitherto unknown
viruses, called ECHO viruses, some
of which are harmful to man; basic
facts about the nature of viruses,
normal and abnormal cells and
nucleic acid, which has been called
the automatic pilot of life"
Some of these discoveries have
an Importance to medical science
comparable to atomic energy's i'm
portance to physics. National
Foundation research grantees have
received world recognition with
Nobel prizes.
More than $4,000, 900 has been
authorized by the National Foun-
dalton for research since 1888.
Current virus projects include ex-
ploring the damage inflicted on
the unborn children of mothers at

the possibility Of viruses as a cause
of arthritis, and effects of cpl
denies of the new viral agents
that swept Wisconsin and Mime
sofa in 1867.
The theme for this January's
March of Dimes, during which the
National Foundation needs to raise
sf5 .0O0, 900, is Toward Greater
Victories" The organization that
made prevention of paralytic polio
possible now is ready to begin at
tacks on other Gripping diseases.
Initial new goals are arthritis and
birth defects. In these and other.
areas the role Of the virus will be
explored. At the same time, scien-
fists will attempt to find out about
latent viruses that may be respons-
IDLE for illness and disability many
years after they first enter the
body.

Christ died for every living soul
So who so ever believed on Him
would not be in vain
They would have a right to Gods

And the Angels will have signed

Stop claiming that you are the man
Christ said that 81 am the way
Man can not change the word OF
God
Because his hair is gray.
Jesus is watching every race today
And Jesus word is quite all right
He speaks of every race you see
And only one man was white.
The lepsey turned this man white
Which has no color in it at all
Christ speaks of only one white
And the lepsey was the cause.
Christ said for us to love
He didn't mention the color at all
He only asked for our old heart
And a new heart was His call.
Mans light is shining very bright
And his sinners are by the scores
Souls are full of hell everywhere
And it's everywhere we go.

And give him a diamond ring
Don't never let him have a gun
He will usually go insane.

is also moreover river at Monmouth

When Will Shakespeare, the country boy who went
to the city to write plays penned that ne he probably
was thinking with nostalgia of the days when whether
the fish were biting more important to him. than
wealthy coming to watch his actors strut the
boards But he could not have stated clearly one of
the important truths upon which the fate of the world
hangs today.
Too often in every phase of life we think only of
Monmouth and forget Macedon We see only our own
side of the picture And resent the other fellow see
ing just his.
We have made this mistake in our own national life
witness the turmoil born of the selfish desire of spec
al groups for special privileges for themselves alone
we have made this mistake in own world-witness
the mess into which overlooking of our brothers
problems led us.
No longer are calm judgment a sense of perspec-
tive clear thinking tolerance of the other fellows view
point merely the characteristics that mark the man who
has reaped in sedscipne and in selfcontanment the
rewards OF education. They have become matter of
life and death.
