Show On Being a Good Neighbor We all pride ourselves on being neighborly. Within the circle cf our community, the helping hand U extended to those in distress But being a good neighbor in just our own community is not cncu-h There are many mutual problems facing all of us that can be solved only on a national level. Some of these are health and welfare problems that are much better solved voluntarily-through a!l our own eiTorts-than eiTorts-than by a paternalistic all-embracing government. The scourge of polio is one problem that cannot be solved locally. Victory can be won only if every community voluntarily supports a coordinated national attack against the disease. ThU requires a national organization to lead the fight. Fortunately we have a battle-tested leader in the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. For 16 years the National Foundation and its county chapters have spear-headed the attack against polio. It is a purely voluntary organization organi-zation financed solely by the March of Dimes. It grew out of the recognition recog-nition of millions of people that polio could be conquered only through an expensive and expansive effort. This is the American way of doing things, as opposed to the totalitarian totali-tarian way in which government does it all and people must simply accept what is done. Some people believe that neighborliness should stop at the borders of their own community. They would have the government take over all large health and welfare programs. We don't believe these neovle realize what this kind of government program would involve. As President Eisenhower recently said when talking about voluntary agencies: "The slogan of a true democracy is notLet the Government do it. The true slogan is Let's do it Ourselves." Robert T. Lansdale, New York State Welfare Commissioner, recently said this: "Without the facilities and services of voluntary agencies, vast sums would have to be spent by the State to build plants and institute programs" and "while public and private agencies complement each other, it is the voluntary groups which have explored, pioneered, and developed techniques of assistance and set the pace for all programs. pro-grams. Government and voluntary agencies do not conflict; both have found a sound basis for their existence in the American social structure." We think this is sound reasoning. We hope that such voluntary organizations will continue to be an integral part of the American way of life. They provide a bulwark against regimentation and totalitarian tendencies. The 16th March of Dimes is just starting. It may well be the most significant one ever held. The announcement of a new program POLIO PREVENTION with a trial vaccine to be tested this year may mean a grim and expensive battle soon wun. Victory seems close, but it can only be reached if we all d:z down and give more than ever before. Here is our chance to be good neighbors on a national scale and prove that the spirit of voiur.ti.ry cooperation is a mighty weapon against disease and disaster.
