Gets $4,000 Check For Aid Of Polio Patients In County Laurens. Nov. 1—A chedk for $4,000 has been received ay the Laurens County Chapter ojf the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis to provide financial aid Paralysis- to provide financial’ aid for local polio patients, it w r as &n- nounced yesterday by Mrs. George McDaniel, chapter chair man. Mrs. McDaniel said that this county is one of a ntimbpr in the nation where local March of Dimes funds are insfuffieient to’ cover polio-fighting needs. She said that the chapter's present financial plight is the re sult of the assistance it has given in the past to 37 patients ‘ who have required and still require costly care to give them a chance td recover their fullest capacities. Mrs. McDaniel said that there was a gratifying improvement in the polio situation in the county this year due apparently to the Salk vaccine injections. There were only two new cases reported this year as compared with 22 last year. She urged parents to have their ' children inoculated under the program now in prog ress in the schools. 1 "In the Salk vaccine we now have means of bringing about the eventual control of new poli.o,” Mrs. McDaniel said. ‘‘But to us of the March of Dimes this is not enough Our job is in the con quest of polio will not be finish ed until polio is finished as a crip- pler of human beings and until further mass appeals to the American public are no longer necessary to insure the care of those who have beenstricken.” Toll^m on a note discoun^de by the yffaintiff in connection with a house repair job.
