Smallpox, malaria, yellow fever and typhus have been conquered. Infant deaths have been reduced by half every two decades. Polilmyelitis has been virtually eliminated. Death rates have been sharply reduced for influenza, tuberculosis and rheumatic fever. Behind the conquest of these diseases lies the faith of countless suffering individuals and their loved ones. But also the dedication and enterprise of scientists, doctors, professionals' and laymen. Among the diseases that still remain medical mysteries is one that is a great crippler of young adults - Multiple sclerosis. Some 500,000 Americans, mostly between the ages of 20 and 40, are afflicted with this debilitating disease, and related diseases. There is no known treatment. No one knows how an individual becomes vicitimized by MS. No one knows a cure or preventive medical treatment. No one knows why this "foremost neurological problem of our time" is so devastating. But the National Multiple Sclerosis Society - the only national voluntary health agency serving the needs in the field of multiple sclerosis and related diseases- - is determined to find out, That is why for 23 years, since its founding in 1946, it has persistently underwritten a program of national and international research. Over $8, 900, 000 has been expended on research projects and fellowship grants by the society. Thanks to this, and the progress of many dedicated scientists, a breakthrough is anticipated by qualified observers. Victory over multiple sclerosis can and will be won because researchers now have the tools, the lnowledge and the scientific and intellectual potential to conquer it. Yes, faith helps. But funds are still needed if the scientists are going to be able to pursue the elusive crippler. That is why this year's MS Hope Chest Campaign (held between Mother's Day and Father's Day) is a crucial drive. Your contribution will help support the program of research, professional education, public education and patient services. All are needed to gain this victory over MS. Keep your faith and your hope, but remember charity, too! In Washington Sen. Frank E. Moss told the Senate he would support a pending amendment to assist schools in federally affected areas, Rep.
