Paralyzed Veteran Pens His Signature By KINGSLEY BROWN Jr. Canadian Press Staff Writer HALIFAX (CP)--Walter Calliw passed another milestone Wednes- day in his crusade to make life happier for North America's crip- pled veterans and invalids. With a pen taped to gnarled fingers that haven't moved for 23 years, the blind and paralyzed in- ventor-humanitarian signed an ap- plication asking the Senate to grant a Canadian charter to the Callow Veterans® Welfare League. Callow, who lives in almost con- stant pain, was visibly enthused when told of the success of his signature, formed virtually by an| orderly's adept wiggling of the ap- plication. The charter will enable the 58- year-old Callow to launch a cam- ~paign aimed at providing Canada with 80 Callow-invented wheelchair coaches, and the United States with "at least twice that many" by the end of 1955. "They laugh because I'm so op- timistic," he said. "But this char- ter---sand we'll get it, don't worry-- will make us a Dominion organiza- tion, with power to move into other provinces, organize branches and conduct our work on a national © scale." : A crash while testing an aircraft and Invalids', of the Royal Flying Corps in 1917 ruined Callow's career ag a prom- ising mechanical expert. Injuries resulted in total paralysis in 12 years. ' His mother and wife died soon -| after, leaving him to bring up his daughter, then 10, by selling Christ- mas cards and dealing in real es- tate. Bight years later he became blind. Last September, 23 years af- iter he entered Camp Hill Military Hospital here, doctors amputated his legs above the knees. But his great ambition--to pro- vide the continent's disabled and afflicted with some of the every- day pleasures of a healthy citizen --never dimmed. Already three $18,000 coaches, custom-built at Ste. Claire, Que., are in operation. Wheelchairs en- ter by a hydraulically-operated ramp at the rear. Last year they transported more than 6,600 crippled veterans, shut- ins and children . suffering from cerebral palsy and poliomyelitis to hockey and baseball games, church services, picnics and on trips to the country. In 1951 every wheel- chair patient in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick was taken out at {least once. | "Their value is immeasurable," 'said Callow. | Donations from all over the world | tinance his work.
