March of Dimes Lends a Hand, To Silence Child's Tormentors

When Lori Nelson blew out the candles on her fourthbirthday cake recently, it seemed that every youngster her age in Rosalie, Neb., turned out for her party. Only a few months before, the remarkably pretty child had been the butt of taunts and giggles from these same chilren. Lori was born with a rare birthmark —a thick, unsightly covering of hair extending from her right shoulder to mid-fore-arm. Instead of finding playmates among the other box's and girls, all she ever encountered were finger-pointers and name-callers. Lori found these gibes, when scarcely out of infancy and the crib, more than any sensitive child could endure. So did her parents, Marlene and Chester Nelson, an attractive farming couple, .who for almost three years searched unsuccessfully for a medical answer to the problem. Brother Also Heartsick Also heartsick was David, 8, Lori’s brother, who more than once came home with a black eye because he fought*all the heartless kids in town who poked fun at his “hairy” sister. “Chester and I were almost Out of our minds with this terrible affliction.” the mother explained. “Lori, a frightened and confused little girl, withdrew into a shell. The present picture was painful enough, but my husband and I looked with dread into the future when our pretty child, like any young woman, would want to go to dances and have dates and fun an<4 in time, a husband and family. “No one gave us any reason for hope. Then I read someplace that the March of Dimes was planning a birth defects center in Omaha. We were waiting at the door when it opened a year and a half ago.” The center, supported by March of Dimes contributions from chapters throughout Nebraska, is at Children’s Memorial Hospital and is directed by Dr. Theodore R- Pfundt, chairman of the pediatrics department of Creighton University School of Medicine. It is one of 48 such centers across the nation. Dr. PfUQIU consulted with Dt.

Thursday, January 16, 1964

Air Force’s Strategic Air Command, sent a statement to the subcommittee describing civil defense as “one of the most important aspects of our overall deterrent posture.” The Senate subcommittee’s hearing on the pros and cons of , the fallout shelter bill was completed in December, 1963. If committee and Senate action to authorize the program is favorable, as it was in the House, Steuart L. Pittman, Assistant Secretary of Defense for Civil Defense, has indicated that he will seek a supplemental appropriation from Congress to get I! the program underway. * * ; THE BILL would amend the Federal Civil. Defense Act of 1950 to: j 1. Enable the Federal Government to contribute up to $25 per individual shelter space to incorporate public fallout shelj ters for about 10 million persons in buildings owned by nonprofit institutions, such as schools, hospitals, -and state and local government facilities. It author- 1 izes, but does not appropriate,:

sanitation supplies, and radiation detection when over 200 vanloads are placed in shelter areas, will be enough for about 260,000 persons for 14 days in fallout shelters. Dept, of Defense Phots

$175 million in this fiscal year toward the program. 2. Require incorporation of public fallout shelters in most new and existing Federal structures. The bill authorizes $15.6 million in this fiscal year to shelter about a million persons. 3. Remove Federal legal restrictions on the use of state and local civil defense personnel and equipment, established with Federal financial aid, in meeting natural disasters. The bill was passed by a voice vote in the House after a move to send the measure back to committee was defeated 172 to 67. Its passage came after the House Armed Services Committee had approved the bill by a 32-4 vote, with pearly all members reversing their stand on fallout shelters after comprehensive testimony last summer from 108 witnesses. In floor debate, the bill was widely backed, including speeches by Speaker John W. McCormack of Massachusetts and Rep. Carl Vinson of Georgia, Chairman of ] the House Armed Services Com- ; mittee.
