A. N. RYTTING, Editor-Publiah- er A Record We're Not Happy About . Generally speaking, we are proud of the record of Utah and Box Elder County. But, during the past year tpft have set a record that has not only brought much caused great suffering and financial expense, but has children. concern to parents of small and growing Utah hung up an unenviable record in the number of polio cases, and Box Elder county listed some 32 cases during the past year. When you see little tikes under the age of one year old, suffering from a pain that they cannot understand, to young people in their teens confined to a hospital and ' bed for months, unable to use their arms, legs others parts of their bodies, it's rather hard to convince oneself of the justice in the plan of things that V people have to suffer in this manner The polio epidemic of last year hit Box Elder county hard, making it about the forth or fifth county in the fetate in the number of cases per capita. Todate, the county chapter has paid over $4,000.00 for treatment for cases where individuals have had no money to pay for the (necessary aid, and they still owe about $3,000.00 to two Ogden hospitals. Added to this they have borrowed nearly $3,000.00 from the National Foundation, which leaves the county chapter around $6,000.00 in the red at the present time. This debt is for hospital care, doctors, medical therapy and special treatment necessary, and most of the patients have been greatly benefited and are well on the way to recovery through the prompt cooperation of parents, doctors and polio committee in securing and ' making immediate aid available. To pay off the indebtedness of the unavoidable almost epidemic we have gone through this past year, it is necessary to raise about $12,000.00 in the present drive, ,and this will leave nothing in the treasury for new cases that might come during 1952. This debt, proportioned among the 20,000 people of Box Elder county amounts to only 60 cents per capita. Since polio is no respector of persons and it might be our turn next, we should all be willing to give this much for the aid and protection of our loved ones and friends and neighbors. When the committee in charge of the drive in your community puts fourth the effort to visit you and ask for your contribution, give all you can to this worthy cause for this crippling disease plight strike your loved ones next. .... one is invited to bring a friend to "Meet Me At Mutual."
