THE ROAD TO HEALTH IF THERE'S INFANTILE PARALYSIS . . . By John W. Chenault. M. D. Med ical Director Tuskegee Institute Every mother in town, I believe called me within one week last summer when there was on out break of infantile paralysis in a nearby community. Everyone wan ted to know what could be done to protect her child from getting polio. Infantile paralysis is most apt to occur in the summer months. From June to September is the danger period, with the greatest number of cases usually occurring in September. Undoubtedly there will be outbreaks this summer, too and I want to mention a few points which should be kept in mind about this tragic disease, which often leaves its victims crippled for life. Many people think of infantile • paralysis as a disease of very young children, but older people may get it too, so everyone should be careful if there is an epidemic. It is too bad, but there is not : one thing we can do to prevent 1 polio. Nobody knows exactly how the disease is spread and it is very • hard to prevent a disease if we i do not know how it is spread, i There are certain precautions we ean take, however, that lessen the j danger of catcching the disease. ; Although we do not know how i to prevent polio, we have learned ; a lot in recent years about treat- i ing it. We have learned so much ; THE COMMON DEFENSE WHY UNITY? W e face economic anti social prohems of a serious na ture. They are not easy to solve. Their Solution reqiures all the wisdom and intelligence we have-and Unity among our people of diverse religion, races, and national origins. Ihere is the necessity of fighting off inflation, providing housing for veterans, keep in production at a continously nigh level. Ihese are only some of the serious economic and social problems which the United States faces-and to whicu we must liind tne right answers. We can find the rigiit answers- if we arc a united people. The enemies of our democracy know this.They do not want these problems solved. They know how to prevent their solution. Their method iis to spread propaganda that the cause of tension between employers and employees,farmers and labor, the cause of inflationary threat, lack of housing and production difficulties is hue-not to recognizahl economic ami political forces-but to the presence in America of certain minority groups and their policies of alleged self-interest. They seek, therefore, to stir up the American people against these groups-promising that if they are eliminated from American life ail of our economic and social problems can he handled. They give themselves to the um.nristian and unpatriotic business of trying to turn Christians against Jews, Protestants against Catholics, W hites against Negroes,, native-born against foreign-born, and vice versa. They say they are patriots-^IVationalistB^-who want to save the country. In reality, they want to create disunity, prevent the orderly development of our economy, produce chaos, and prepare the way for their own political fortunes. It we listen to these agitators ami enemies of L nity we shall not solve our economic and social problems at all. W e shall simply complicate them by surrounding them with racial anti religious hatred-ending in chaos anti the appear ance of some sort of dictatorship, probably in the hands of the racil and religious bigots. Americans can serve Cod anti our country by using their infleunce to drive the evils of racial anti religious discord from our borders. It would be good religion-and a mighty factor in preserving Unity at home-if every American ressolved to live in peace with his neighbors, to cooperate with them, to pray and strive for their happiness, to reeg nize their Cod-given rights as equal to his own anti as worthy of defense as his own-and never, under any circumstances, to spread ugly and false rumors about them. AMMUNITION FOUND ATJAGUR --— a PALESTINE — British troops members of the Cheshire regiment in the far east, display some of the ammunition uncovered during a surprise search of the collective settlement Jagur, near Haifa, re cently. A report from this troubl ed sector revealed that almost 1.000 of the more than 2,000 Jews seized in the widespread arrests of June 29th had now been releas ed.____. that in many cases crippling can be prevented with proper treat ment. It is therefore, very important ■hat any child or adult who gets ;he disease be placed under good, medical care at once. It is most infortunate that sometimes peo oie try all kinds of remedies be fore they seek medical advice. When they finally go to a doctor t may be too late to save the pa rent’s life or to prevent him from oeing crippled. The first symptoms of polio are >ften a headache, unexplained ’ever, a cold or an upset stomach, f there is an outbreak of infantile mralysis and a member of your 'amily complains of any of these symptoms, get in touch with a doc ;or at once. Although we say we cannot pre sent polio, if people follow a few simple rules they may avoid the lisease. We know that people who are ill tired out are more apt to catch x>lio than those who get plenty >f rest. Chills also weaken resist ince to the disease, so we should lot stay in cold water too long and should avoid sudden chilling. To TWA CONSTELLATION CRASHES NEAR READING READING, PA.-Soundphoto_ The plane bums furiously after crashing just after taking off from the Reading airport on a training flight. Of the five on board, three were dead and the others injured. swimming in dart water may be dangerous, too. It is well to stay away from crowds. It is important too, for the indi vidual to keep clean and for the community to be kept clean. Flies may spread infection, so all food should be protected from flies and other insects. Garbage should be always covered, both in the home and after it is taken to the street for collection by the city. People should always wash their hands before eating, lest they have tou ched something that has germs on it and the germs are carried to their mouths. The National Foundation for In fantile Paralysis is ready to help any community which has an epi demic of polio. It will also help in dividuals who are stricken with the disease. The foundation, which has its headquarters at 120 Wail St., New York 5, N. Y. has chap ters located in many counties thru out the country. The National Foundation or the chapters will tell you what to do. By all means get in touch with your doctor im mediately if polio is suspected. ■ IV - ± , It rTWlMII —Read YOUR Ntncspaper THE OMAHA GUIDE —Every Week! On Sale at Your Local Newsstand
