THE LOW DOWN
FROM HICKORY GROVE
= 8
More and more I get dubious
about where we are coming
out--this U.S.A. I mean—this
land of the free and easy. This
prodigal goings-on of our boss-
men ‘in Govt., it is past being
something to shrug off. Every
page ~ the paper tells about
more cash being dished into
this or into that--no end.
Today there are 2 items.
One is for $43,431,000 bucks
for. the Hungry Horse power
house in Montana and the
other is for a 64,000,000 bucks
loan to the UN for a new
building. And it is a 100 to 1
shot that neither of the loans
will ever be paid off. A typical
day, I calls it.t But some of
these times we are going to
get the feeling that the camel
had on ‘that final day when
the last straw was piled on--
and his legs buckled. The wait
may not be too long.
But there is always a hope
that maybe Mr. Massachusett’s
Joe Martin or that old Virginia
gent, Mr. Byrd, or some other
such level-headed person who
figures that the U.S.A. is still
worth saving and knows how
to wrangle it, will be our next
boss-man. There is no law
against hoping--so folks, join
in, let's hope-- also vote.
Yours with the low down,

Health Examinations
Given In K.T. Schools
For the second year, all students,
faculty, and empbyees of the King-
ston Township 5chools have re-
ceived a complete medical and Sour}
tal examination. v
When the State law was passed
there was a question of how dental
or medical corrections could be met
for students whose parents were
not financially able to provide the
correction. During the two years
the new State Health program has
been in effect, necessary corrections
have been made through financial
aid from local organizations and
from the State Department of Pub-
lic Assistance.

Infantile Paralysis Epidemics
Have Struck State Five Times
By Pennsylvania News Service
Harrisburg, May 6th— Infantile
paralysis epidemics have struck
Pennsylvania five times in a gener-
ation and in 32 years have touched
12,658 persons, State Headquarters
of the National Foundation for In-
fantile Paralysis said today.
Pointing out that medical authori-
ties call 20 cases per 100,000 popu-
lation an epidemic, the Foundation
said that ‘the rate has been re-
peatedly exceeded in many of our
counties.”
Thanks and appreciation for the
“splendid financial support” accord-
ed the March of Dimes drive for
funds to fight polio, which recently
ended in Pennsylvania, were ex-
pressed by the Foundation which
warned™at the same time however
that “polio is a continuous story
in Pennsylvania. It is always with
us, though no one knows where it
will strike nor how severely.”
Highest toll of infantile paralysis
in Pennsylvania occurred in 1916
when 2181 cases were reported. In
1932, a total of 1111 were stricken
while in 1942 there were 742 cases
of which number 102 were in York
County alone.
In 1944, eighteen northern tier
counties felt the impact of an epi-

demic when the State had 1456
cases. In Tioga County, where 105
persons were stricken, one of the
highest case rates in the country
was reported— 359 per 100,000
population.
More recently, in 1945 the inci-
dence was higher than usual, with
a reported 783 cases, while in the
following year a total of 341 cases
were reported, and reports indicate
that the total for last year will be
slightly lower.
