Dear Mr. DeLand:
With reference to your letter postmarked today, February
2fth, we wish to correct the erroneous impression you seem to
h Id with regard to the acctivities of this local Chapter.
Immediately upon learning of the existence of infant!b
pj-rrlysis in the Valley, the local Charter notified Miss Rose
Gnr;. lnick, tub lie Health Ilurso, that it would t.5ve financial
r- s 1st'ncc, where necessary, for sending children out for
tr atment.
Your rquest made on February 18th is the only request
v;i ich has been received. It was agreed by the executive
C emitter: on that same day to make available to you such
fo.nncial assistanc as won 1 \ be needed to transport your
little 0irl to the. Orthopedic Hospital at Seattle. *tt that
time r meeting, was- called for t< -nitht to determine the nro
ce ’nrc to be followed. This money will be furnished you just
r.i soon as you notify us that arrangements for hospitalizrtim
have been completed and the cost of Eileen’s transportation
has been determined.
This Chapter has not at any time refused to assist any
victim of infantile paralysis, and pt is the sincere hope of
tils Committee that in the future you will correctly inform
yourself before ^ivin<_ such wi ’c circulation to your erroneous
