of the statement made in a Richmond
special to a Norfolk newspaper that
processes had been received by United

The work of vaccination goes rapidly

meet to report progress tonight. 1t Is
not all plain sailing, however. and though
no vigorous opposition has been met with,
the fact that it is not compulsory mas
led many persons to refuse absolutely
10 submit to 1t. while others have de-
clared that they will call in their family
physicians to perform the operation.
