Medical care for polio patients is costing the National Founda
tion for Infantile Paralysis more money than ever before—
because better treatment is available today than formerly, as the
accompanying chart reveals. Until 1938 when the National Foun
dation was formed, a physician and a nurse usually comprised
the best available care. Today, modern polio treatment may
include 13 specialized services, provided by an entire TEAM of
professional workers. This expanded care has cost National
Foundation Chapters millions in March of Dimes funds. More
money is needed immediately to continue these services. Support
the POLIO EPIDEMIC EMERGENCY DRIVE to help care for
today’s polio patients. Send your contribution now to POLIO,
care of your local Post Office.
