' .'. WEDNESDAY. JULY 13, 1949 THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON PAGE THIRTEEN I No Favorites : Shown by Polio, Survey Reveals By Paul F. Ellis (United Pretu Science Writer) San Angelo, Tex., July 13 Po lio plays no favorites. That fact was established again in a survey of patients discharged after receiving hospital care. Accompanied by the county health nurse, this correspondent visited four polio homes. One was a Negro family. An other a low income white family. '. A third was the home of an air force captain and the fourth a middle class home where an incur able case creates a real problem. The Negro case was an- 11-month-old infant who has been sickly with rickets since his illegi timate birth. Yet despite the boy's poor health he was able to throw off polio. Hygienic con ditions at the baby's home were of low grade. Food for him was as scarce as water for his bath. Disease Easily Whipped Some blocks away lives another discharged polio patient, an 11-year-old boy whose father is in the low income group. His home was clean as a whistle. He whip ped the disease in about two weeks. In the better section of town lives an air force captain now assigned to ground duty. He and his wife have two children, a 22-months-old daughter and a young son. . They live in a well furnished modern duplex apartment house. They had a double blow. Their daughter came down twice with polio. The first time they insisted on paying the cost of treatment. She recovered and was sent home. A few days later she came down with polio again. This time it meant prolonged treatment at an orthopedic hospital at Gonzales, 265 miles from here. Mrs. Bonnie Batts, Tom Green county chair man of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, and the county nurse came into the pic ture and the foundation is now paying for the girl's treatment. Stricken S Years Ago Betty, pretty and married and about 23 and with a healthy four-year-old daughter is another San Angelo polio case but she did not come down with the disease in the current epidemic. She was strick: en at Dallas three years, ago. She now lives with an uncle and aunt here. Her bed is an iron lung. It is her "sleeping chamber." fcacn. night her aunt lifts her frail body and puts her in the "lung, fane does not breathe In voluntarily, she must think to breathe. As a result she needs the lung so she can sleep. Handicapped as she is, Betty still has a pretty face and a smile and is happy while her baby plays near her bed during the day. She has eternal hope that she can re turn the iron lung to the national foundation.

The hygienic condi tions there were far worse than those in the negro section. Yet not one case of polio this year has been reported from the section. As a contrast Mrs. Batts point ed out that one of the first cases of polio in the current epidemic came from one of the best sec tions 'of San Angelo. The patient was the child of a physician.
