Polio Aid Needs Surge As Dimes Reach Record In 1954
The March of Dimes reports 66,000 polio patients from 1953 and earlier still require aid at the start of 1954. Longstanding cases include iron lung users and those needing therapy or surgery, with 174 million spent on polio care since founding and 270000 patients aided. The 1954 drive runs through January, urging more dimes and dollars.
