Only Three Cases of Paralysis Listed

RICHMOND Virginia May 10 Three cases of poliomyelitis have been reported the State Health Department so far this year and officials yesterday predicted that the state will go through the summer with comparatively few cases. Dr H H Henderson in charge of the division of communicable diseases said the small number reported is a good portent that no large scale outbreak will occur in the next few months. Last year there were 11 cases on record for the first four months but the year end total was 65 cases against 48 for 1942. The number for the first four months of this year have not reached the expectancy chartered by the State Health Department Dr Henderson said but he emphasized that this was not an exact forecast that the cases will remain below normal.
