Nation's Mailmen Are Potent Force
In March of Dimes Disease Battle
A small, yellow envelope
serving as a harbinger ol:
an expanding war on crip-
pling disease arrives in the
mailboxes of 40 million
American families this week.
It brings the "mailer" of the
1962 March of Dimes, now ded-
icated to seeking the answers
to birth defects and arthritis
while continuing its work in
polio. Printed on each envelope
is the confident prophecy,
"Your Dimes Will Do ft Again!"
Addressed by tens of thou-
sands of volunteers in the
county chapters of The Na-
tlpnal Foundation - March of
Dimes across the nation, this
symbol of scientific research
and total medical care for the
victims of these diseases prom-
ises immediate help and future
hope through the generosity of
the American people.
The prediction on the mailer,
"Your Dimes Will Do It Again!'1
Is a reference, of course, to
development of the Salk anti-
polio vaccine and to the later
Sabin oral vaccine. Both were
made possible, as were the
medical care and rehabilitation
of many of those paralyzed by
polio, by public contributions
to the March of Dimes. Many
millions of the dollars so well
used to bring about these ac-
complishments came to local
chapters through similar mail-
ers in years past.

As one chapter chairman
said: 'Aside from financial out-
lays needed urgently for re-

must expand its already exist-
