Yesterday Health Commissioner Harry S. Mustard issued a statement pointing out that the department had expected the number of cases reported in August to show a rise and said that the figures totaled this week would indicate whether this epidemic would be a "mild" one or "more severe." Local Funds Depleted Basil O'Connor, president of the foundation, pointed out that a large number of cases last year had depleted local unit funds and if the incidence grows greater this year it may be necessary to reserve funds earmarked reinto. search or conduct another campaign.

He said the campaign would be preferred so that research work on means of wiping out the disease might continue uninterrupted. In Great Neck, the Park Commission closed Beach on the recommendation of Nassau County health allthorities after 15 cases of polio, with three deaths, were reported in the Great Neck area. A "high bacterial count" found at the beach, which is on Little Neck Bay. New York City has listed the bay as polluted and not fit for swimming. The Health Department expressed no concern over the fact that the 57 cases represented the highest single daily total this year, explaining that some of the cases actually should be considered as part of the weekend tally, Dr.

Harry S. Mustard, Health Commissioner, pointed out that on Sunday, for instance, only 12 cases were reported. In addition, he said. 13 cases reported previously had been found to be other ailments--not polio. In the 24 hours period ending at 9 a.m.

yesterday, Brooklyn reported 28 cases, Queens 11, the Bronx 9, Manhattan 8 and Staten Island 1. Two more deaths in Brooklyn, three in the Bronx and one in Staten Island brought the total since the first of the year to 15 for Brooklyn, in Queens, 5 in Manhattan, 4 in the Bronx and 1 in Staten Island, a total of 32.
