Sister Kenny Attacks
Polio Foundation

Sister Elizabeth Kenny said last
night the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis employs prop
aganda" that is "untruthful and
inaccurate" The foundation inn
mediately denied the accusation.
"They debar the patient from
getting the very BEST" the Ga
year-old Australian nurse declared
on the National Broadcasting Co.
program, Meet the Press"
Sister Kenny made the state
ment when a reporter asked her
if she feared the medical profess
sion because it had often criticized
her method Of treating polio cases.
"It's the National Foundation I
have to fear" Sister Kenny said.
Their propaganda is untruthful
and inaccurate.
She said the National Founda-
ton refuses Ito give money for
the Kenny treated patient. They
are paying disqualification in some
areas and not in Others"
A spokesman for the foundation
said similar accusations by Sister
Kenny had been denied before
and the same goes for the latest
one.

Laborites Open Drive
To Convince Pacifists
OF Need 10 Rearm
BY the Asseeioi.d Press

MARGATE, England, Oct. a.
The ruling British Labor Party
embarked on a campaign today to
convince its many pacifist
members that rearmament against
Russia now is vitally necessary to
prevent war.
Party Chairman Sam Watson,
an officer in the National Union
Of Mineworkers, called for support
of rearmament and conscription.
Both now are being carried out
by the Socialist Government, al
though they were for many years
opposed by the Socialists.
The party's pacifist wing in
Parliament has threatened to
rebel over these policies.
Armed Force Need Cited.
1.-THE history Of the world is not
history of attack of the strong
on the strong, but Of the strong
on the weak" Mr.. Watson said in
an address to 1900 delegates at
the first session of the party's
annual conference here.
Armed forces are required to
defend all we have won In our
long struggle for freedom" Mr..
Watson argued. "a
He expressed belief there will
not be another world war If the
democratic Western nations grow
strong and act together. Calling
for such collective security forces
as are necessary to keep peace,
he added:
I'VE cannot preach collective
security and complete disarma-
ment at the same time"
Mr.. Watson denounced the
Communist-sponsored Stockholm
Peace Petition" as a fraud.
"2 Things Could Abolish War;"
Mr.. Watson said only two things
could abolish war-the freeing Of
backward peoples from their dire
poverty" and the spreading Of
real democracy over the world" "
He challenged the Russian con-
ception Of democracy. noting that
Britain chooses its government In
free elections between different
parties.
Today's conference opening was
preceded yesterday by two briefing
sessions for party workers intent
on strengthening Labor's rural
vote at the next general election.
The party lost heavily in many
rural districts in last February's
balloting, which reduced Labor
control Of Parliament to pre-
cariously small majority.

Reports Suggesting
Truman-StaIin ParIey
Bring Cool Reaction
By Ernie Hill
Correspondent of The Sfor and
the Chicago Dolly News

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Oct. 2.
Persistent reports are circulate
ing at the United Nations that
Prime Minister Stain would well
come a peace meeting with Presi-
dent Truman.
The reports come mostly from
diplomatic sources of the So
called neutral capitals-Stock-
holm, Cairo. New Delhi and
second-handed from Bern and
Geneva.
They are so persistent that it
is generally agreed that the Rus
slams themselves are planting
them as a new phase of their
slightly shrill peace offensive.
New Delhi Favored.
The capital of India seems to
be the favorite spot for sowing
the seeds of this idea, probably
because Prime Minister Nehru has
attempted to assume the role of
East West mediator.
1t is believed that President
Truman could readily arrange
such meeting in New Delhi or
Geneva il he saw any possible
hope in the idea.
The really remarkable thing,
however, is the reaction produced
by the proposal.
Until June Is. when Korean
Communists roared their Russian
made tanks across the 38th paral-
lei, the idea would have found vast
sympathy at the United Nations.
Korea Disillusioning.
But the Korean war and the
part Russia has played in 1t has
proved an almost completely dis
illusioning episode in current, world
history. Russia has convinced
even the most hopefully optimistic
that Russia's course of conquest
is set and can be stopped only by
force.
