March of Dimes
Chairman Here
“It may shock many, as it did
me, to learn that thousands of
our handicapped children are not
able to get the best possible
medical care. I know the Amer
ican people will want to correct
that situation.”
This was the comment of Don
Crump today, as he acepeted ap
pointment as campaign director
of the 25th Anniversary March
of Dimes in Butts County this
January.
‘ Nobody needs help more than
crippled children and so many
are not able to obtain the kind of
care they are entitled to. But fol
lowing the pattern of its triumph
over polio, the March of Dimes
is working to solve this problem
where the need is greatest—in
the fields of birth defects and
arthritis,” Mr. Crump declared.
In emphasizing that these con
ditions are among the leading
causes of disability among chil
dren, he pointed out that there
are more than 250,000 American
babies born each year with signif
icant birth defects— 7oo imper
fect newborn children each day.
“And there are 11 million
Americans afflicted by arthritis
or rheumatic disease, thousands

of them children and adolescents.
And millions of dollars are still
needed to aid the thousands
paralyzed by polio in former
years,” Mr. Crump said.
In the only program of its kind
by a voluntary health agency,
Mr. Crump said, the March of
Dimes is striving to bring expert
medical care to every community
in the nation to help children
crippled and disabled by these
conditions. More than 50 March
of Dimes-supported treatment
centers have been established in
many parts of the country, and
the fast-growing program is pro
viding first-quality medical care
for birth defects, arthritis and
polio patients through teams of
medical specialists.
This expanded program, having
centers affiliated with nearly
half the nation’s medical schools,
is pioneering in developing new
care and treatment techniques to
minimize disabling and crippling
by these diseases, Mr. Crump

“In brief,” Mr. Crump de
clared, “parents of children with
birth defects, arthritis and polio
will have a place to turn for help.
It’s a magnificent start, but we
need many more centers to do
the job adequately.
“That is why the theme of the
1963 March of Dimes is ‘Give
for the Life of a Child.’ It sums
up the purpose and promise of
our campaign. I urge every resi
dent of Butts County to respond
as generously as possible.”
