FIFTH ARMY IN PURSUIT OF
 FLEEING NAZIS

ALLIED HEADQUARTERS IN NAPLES, June 5.-(AP)--The powerful Fifth Army thundered across the northern Italian hori- zon today, in pursuit of the Tenth and Fourteenth German Divi- sions, with hardly a look at cap tured Rome.
 The ancient seat of western civilization fell as prize to the allied troops after nine months of bitter fighting, on the Italian mainland, and nearly II months after the landing on Sicily, July 10, 1943.
 The last ditch German rear guards died within the shadow of the Rome Forum, in the streets of the government quarters, as Italian partisans, barechested, wearing the hammer and sickle insignia, fought hand to hand with the Nazis and Facists, in the brief battle for the libera- tion
 The Italian populace cheered the allied infantry and tank teams as they threaded their way through the city's streets, and rushed to kiss the bearded and grimy liberators, and warned of ambushes ahead Some Romans died in the last hours as many tried, barehanded, to seize ma chine guns, and were moved down by the retreating Germans.
 Although the Nazis had declar- ed Rome an open city, sporadic clashes took place during the all lied conquest.
 The Italian capital. its social cultural and religious treasures, apparently came through un- scratched. Police said that all was quiet in the Vatican, where the Pope has been a virtual pris- oner of the German bayonets since September.
 A Berlin broadcast said that Baron Von Weixsaecker German ambassador 10 the Holy See, left his residence in Rome, the Villa Boneparte, for the Vatican City with other diplomatic missions of the Tripartite powers, including Japan, Hungary, Slovakia, Ru- mania and Finland"
 During the hours of the violent liberation of the city, the Swiss guard was doubled about the Vatican, to prevent an influx of refugees.
 The German broadcast said the Allied representative of the Holy See had already left the Vatican precincts for their old apartments in Rome.
 King Emanuel is expected mo- mentarily, to hand over his power and his crown to Prince Umber'o in formal ceremony, in keeping with his promise of several months ago, to act when the all lies entered Rome
 Although first reports from Rome were scanty concerning damage to the city, number of demolitions were carried out by the Germans.
 Dispatches said the Fiat fac tory was the scene of one such demolition, while efforts were also made to wreck the gas, electric and water utilities.
 Allied headquarters announced th2t with the occupation of Rome, the first objective was realized, and with the Fifth and Eighth Armies pursuing the Tenth and Fourteenth German Divisions, as- sisted by allied fighter bombers, hammering away at the fleeing German columns, leaving the con- gested highways to the north lit tered with dead and wounded. and smashed vehicles.

the virus by closing places wlere
people congregate have been uni
formly unsuccessful. The resulting
disturbance to community life IS
a disadvantage. Today there IS no
way by which the spread of infan-
tile paralysis can be completely
stopped.
7. There is no known cure for in
fantile paralysis. Good medical care
will prevent or correct some de-
formities. But in about every fourth
or fifth care there will be perma-
nent paralysis that cannot be over
come. Do not believe those who for
one reason or another promise to
cure these cases. Be guided by sound
medical advice if polio does strike
in your family.
s. In almost all the counties Of the
United States there are local Chap
tiers of The National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis prepared to help
health officers, doctors, nurses, hos
pitfalls and patients in every way pos
sible. These Chapters stand ready te
assist the entire community. Know
your Chapter-ask its help if need
ed-and volunteer to help your
Chapter so that it will be able tc
render the necessary services.

What To
Do When
Polio Strikes

June through September is the
season when infantile paralysis
generally is on the upswing in the
United States The National Founda-
ton for Infantile Paralysis has COM
piled the following suggestions
which will be helpful to residents
of areas where poliomyelitis is on
the march. 3,
l. During an outbreak of infantlle
paralysis be alert to any early signs
of illness or changes in normal state
of health, especially in children. Do
not assume that stomach upset
with vomiting constipation, diar-
rhea, severe headache or signs OF
cold and fever are of no import
ance. These may be among the first
symptoms of infantile paralysis. All
children and adults sick with unex-
planned fever should be put to bed
and isolated pending medical dag
nosis.
2. Don't delay calling a physician.
Expert medical care given early may
prevent many of the Gripping de-
formities. Proper care from the
onset may mean the difference be-
tween a life Of Gripping and normal
recovery.
3. Today there is no known pre-
vention or protection against infan-
tile paralysis. All that can be done
is to provide the best possible care.
Your doctor, your health officer and
your local Chapter Of The National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis
can and will do everything in their
power to see to it that your COM
munity is ready to meet an cpl
demic.
4. Observe these simple precau-
lions.
(a) Avoid overtiring and extreme
fatigue from strenuous exercise
(b) Avoid sudden chilling such as
would come from plunge into ex-
tremely cold water on a very hot
day.
(c) Pay careful attention to per-
sonal cleanliness, such as thorough
hand washing before eating. Fly
genie habits should always be OBJ
served
Id II possible avoid tonsil and
adenoid operations during epldem-
les Careful study has shown that
such operations, when done dur
ing an epidemic, tend to increase
the danger Of contracting infantlle
paralysis in its most serious form.
(e) Use the purest milk md water
you can. Keep flies away from food.
While the exact means Of spread
of the disease is not known contain
mated water and milk are ALWAYS
dangerous and flies have repeatedly
been shown to carry the infantilt
paralysis virus.
(f Do not swim in polluted water
(g) Maintain community santa
ton at a high level at all times.
(h) Avoid all unnecessary con-
tact with persons with any illness
suspicious Of infantile paralysis.
S. Don't become hysterical il
cases do occur in your neighbor-
hood. While infantile paralysis is
communicable or catching during
any outbreak, there are many who
have such a slight infection thai
there are few or no symptoms. This
large number Of unrecognized in
fections is one Of the reasons there
is no practical way of preventing
the spread Of The disease. But it j:
also reassuring to know that. 0.
the many persons who become in
fected, few develop serious lines:
and that, with good care, the ma
jority who are stricken will make
a satisfactory recovery. Remembel
that although this is frightful di
sease, needless fear and panic only
cause more trouble.
s. Attempts to stop the spread 0

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
IS Years Ago

Information at hand is that the
August payroll of the Julius Neils
Lumber company was the biggest IN
the history of that concern. It
amounted in round figures to lver
100000. This includes men at work
in the mills and in the woods here.
Five hundred and fifty men were
employed and of those 300 work in
the mills and $50 in the woods This
makes the average pay check about
$500 for the month Again, il this
should be kept up for a year it
would mean that this one concern
would pay over a million a yea IN
wages in Libby.
A committee consisting Of Arch
Hoffman and r. E. Robinson. rep
resenfing the Libby Volunteer Fire
department, appealed to the city
council for the installation of a
modern fire alarm in Libby Trey
pointed out the fact that the old
bell now rung in case Of fire IS
heard by only small part Of the
residents. and is so easily confused
With the school and church bells
that when heard, it often is given
no heed
The aldermen decided that the
firemen were right. Action was
taken authorizing the fire depart
ment to install an electrical siren, at
cost Of about $3.50, to be paid by
the city A switch in the office OF
the telephone company would be
used to turn it on.
The work in the public schools is
now we'll under way with a pooe
enrolment in all departments. TIT
Central school began with an enroll
ment of 235, the Junior high with SO
and the Senior high with So.
There were "a enrolled in the be
ginners class.
