Reasons for the emergency drive were listed as follows: While the 55 million dollar March of Dimes in January was the largest in history, it fell 20 million short of meeting the tightly budgeted 1954 polio need for 75 million dollars. The first phase of the historic vaccine field trials, supported by the National Foundation and involving inoculation of 650,-00- 0 children, is over. The enormously costly second phase evaluating the mil ions of records against the background of the epidemic season and its aftermath, is about to begin. Double the 1953 supply of gamma globulin, made available by the National Foundation for distribution through state and local health departments to epidemic areas, must be paid for.

There are a record number, (67,000) of polio victims from previous epidemics who need March of Dimes help now for hospital care and rehabilitation. Pointing to an unpredictable heavy case load, polio incidence for the first half of 1954 exceeds d the average for by the same period of the previous five years.
