Seen Likely Soon

A prediction that it soon will be
feasible to vaccinate against polio
was made yesterday before the
Woman's Club of Chevy Chase by
James Waldo Fawcett, editorial
writer of The Star.
The University of Michigan is
working on experiments to that end,
and the success of those expert
ments may be announced any min.
ute," the speaker declared.
Mr. Fawcett, who had addressed
the club during the dedication Of
its clubhouse 10 years ago, spoke at
the monthly meeting which marked
the anniversary of that occasion.
Discussing Ten Years of Many
Gains and Few Losses" the speaker
declared that the decade had been
marked by remarkable progress in
medicine. In 1888 the presumption
of life for a newborn child was
At years, he said, while today it is 81.

Debate ON Arms AidI
To Europe Forecast
iBv O'C0n0r in ak
By Ruth Dean

The American people can prepare
themselves for discussions on the
desirability of providing Western
Europe Win Ids for insuring its
defense against the danger of pos
sible aggression, declared Senator
|O'Conor, Democrat, of Maryland,
yesterday.
1T is openly admitted" Senator
O'Conor told a luncheon meeting
Of the Soroptimist Club, that the
American, British and French oc-
cupation forces in Germany, to-
gether with the internal forces of
the Marshall Plan countries, would
be no adequate defense if Russia,
the one possible enemy to Western
Europe, should decide to go on the
march again for new conquests."
The speaker suggested that as
the Western European countries
make progress toward economic re-
habilitation, they will become more
tempting to any potential aggressor.
At the same time, he said, "the
passage of time makes the same po-
tential aggressor better prepared for
any act of aggression that she might
deem wise"
"It is for this reason" he de-
clared, that we will likely have to
determine whether it is prudent to
supply upward of a billion dollars
to Western Europe for new arma-
ments and a co-ordinated defensive
program. as the only possible guar
antee Of enduring peace both dur
ing the rehabilitation period and
afterward."
Senator O'Conor pointed out that
with the economic situation i'm
proving in Western Europe, present
indications are that ECA will scale
down it's request this coming year
for future ALLEGATIONS for economic
recovery" This could admit the
possibility, he continued, of divert
ing these funds to arms purposes
''if it is deemed strategic to do so. y
"A decision must be made" Sem
ator O'Conor asserted. ITO require
Europe to develop adequate arms
insurance against aggression now
while it is just struggling through
the first phase of economic rehabil-
itation, might well interfere def
nitely with long-range economic
plans" He warned that the addi-
ton of such a burden might defer
for years the attainment OF that
minimum economic level of achieve
ment which is the goal of the Mar
shall Plan. Because Europe is
beginning the upward climb we
must be careful not to load upon
these countries burdens which
might overtax their entire strength,
he said.
Turning to domestic affairs, the
speaker praised the efforts OF the
Commission on the Organization Of
the Executive Branch of the Gov
eminent, headed by former Presi-
dent Hoover. The results OF their
survey should give the people OF
the United States an assurance OF
the reorganization of the Govern
ment on a less costly and more
systematic basis" said Senator
OConor, who organized similar
commission in Maryland when he
was Governor of that State.
