Frank Drew, of Dll lard, said Wednesday there'! one thing the polio victim should watch out (or: "That's the idea of giving up," he explained. Rev. Drew spoke briefly Wednes day night at the annual din ner meeting of the Douglas county chapter of the National Founda tion for Infantile Paralysis. Rev. Mr. Drew, who has been recovering from a polio attack, aid he is now able to carry on much as before. "It's awfully easy for the polio victim to quit," he commented. "I've watched several, two In this county in particular. One, al though he really should know he won't be able to sit up, stIU says he's going to get well. "The other, who I've seen walk the length of a corridor with braces aits in his wheel chair and says, "I can't' " Financial Status Talked Also speaking was Gene Maleckl, Oregon representative of the na tional foundation. He said 50 percent of each dol lar donated to polio drives remains lncally. The remainder Is used for research, professional aervlces, aid to local chapters and other neces sary items. "For the first time In history," he said, "Oregon chapters are dependent nn national epidemic aid funds." He explained that Ore gon had been able to take care of its own polio fighting finances pre viously.

Wainscott, county health officer, said Douglas county has had six polio cases so far this year, and $8,000 has been spent fighting those and several carry overs from 1950.

McKay added He may have found a solution to the problem the in sult. "Last year I had a heart-to-heart talk with all 1,100 of them and told them I was sick and tired of seeing their little brothers and sisters turn in more money than they did."

Of Archbishop (Continued from Page 1) based on honesty and the essen tial conditions demanded by the Catholic church," be said. "These include church marri ages, religious education in the. schools and a free Catholic press. Church marriage must be defended to the last breath, for it is a sac rament established by the good Lord and man haa no right to change it." I The 53-year-old high churchman indicated he is willing to live the I rest of his life as a simple parish priest in the church where he was i baptized soon after his birth to a Croatian peasant family in the Krasic parish. The 400-year-old ! church dominates the village of peasant homes and farm buildings. Under terms of his release, the archbishob is forbidden to issue fiastoral letters, advising his ot- owers on public or personal con duct, or to issue public statements. I He may leave Krasic only with I the permission of the Croatian min-1 ister of interior. But be will be permitted to preach sermons in church and it; is believed he will be completely free to receive any visitors. He was brought from prison in a new American automobile pre sented to him, through the Vatican, by U. S. admirers. Unreported Polio Cases Forfeit Aid Polio cases which have not been reported to either the Douglas county or state health departments can not be paid for by the county chapter tor infantile paralysis. The chapter issued this warning to physicians and to parents of persons afflicted with the disease. It is highly imperative, said Dr. E. J. Wainscott, county health doc tor, that all cases be reported in order that a full record will be on hand in the chapter's files. He said that no case which has been properly reported will be de nied financial aid by the chapter, but that responsibility can not be taken where no records exist. This is in accordance with the national foundation's policy, Dr. Wainscott said. The Douglas county chapter has never turned down a case. It will pay every cent of cost, when nec essary, and is desirous of helping every polio victim; but it cannot pay for cases that are not a mat ter of record, Dr. Wainscott stressed.
