NO POLIO HERE;; OFFICIALS GUARD AGAINST EPIDEMIC

Is the present outbreak of polio- myelitis dnfantile paralysis) in Alaska an epidemic? Or do case re- ports reflect the normal increase that goes with this season. before cold weather with cleaning" rain and snow?
 This problem confronts Territorial Hctlth Department officials, It is a problem because of complicated factors, according to Dr. James T. Googe, director of local health serv- ices, on loan from the US. Public Health Service.
 Always there are some missed cases because symptoms are so like those of cold" Dr. Googe said to- day.
 Always there are more cases than can be known at one time, for re- ports and analyses are delayed in reaching the central office. Always there are a few carriers. not identifiable.
 Besides, more cases are being re- ported, as doctors and patients be- come alert to the possibility of polio"
 In total numbers, new and recent cases in three Alaska communities are not many-eight cases in Fair banks, at least one new one in Anchorage, where officials believe there are several cases, and one &C., tive case in Ketchikan.
 Three deaths attributable to polio occurred within six weeks, two in Fairbanks, one in Ketchikan. Jeff rey Bennington, 2-year-old son of an officer at Ladd Field, died Au- gust Il. David Tikluk. 28-year-old Eskimo. died August IS in Fairbanks and Gordon Hanna, 32, September 20 in Ketchikan.
 The previous record showed no deaths in 1945 or 1946; one in l947, none in 1948 and one in 1949
 We do not want to alarm the public" Dr. Googe said, on learn ing that Fairbanks schools had been closed after Dr. Robert P. German, City Health Officer, reported eight cases in the area.
 Panic actually helps spread the disease" he said. Rest, sleep. and Keeping away from crowds are ex- cellent preventive measures. Sen sible sanitary precautions also are important"
 No cases have been reported in Juneau or this area.
 A portable iron lung" is avail able at St. Ann's hospital, to which it was donated by the Juneau Rotary Club. The respirator is in new condition, as there has never been a need for it.
 While there is no chapter in Alaska of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, the Alaska Crippled Children's Association has committee to aid prevention and treatment of the disease. Besides the fund at the Anchor age headquarters of the Association, the $18,000 collected from Armed Services in the Territory is set aside in special Alaska account
 Resources of the national organi- zation are available. A request al- ready has been made to the national office for additional respirators, in case they should be needed.

wilfully crushing a sheriff to death
beneath the wheels of his motor
car, was spirited away from this

moonshine still during raid and
officers sought to arrest him.
The 50-year-old sheriff was

Admits Korean Defeat
By the Associofed Press

BERLIN. Sept. 20 (CDN The
Soviet licensed newspaper Ber-
liner zeitung told its readers in
Eastern Germany today that the
Soviet Union now will exercise
every peaceful means to protect
the unfortunate people of Korea
from the war aims of the United
States"
This assertion was coupled with
the first open admission that
North Korean plans had gone
wrong and the Red-starred armies
were heading for defeat. i
With the hindSight the Soviet
agencies haven't shown until very
recently, the paper added: mo
one could doubt seriously that
the highly industrialized United
States would achieve military
successes against the Korean
people" /.
1t ignored the lineup against
the Soviet Union in the Security
Council and General Assembly Of
the United Nations and declared
that the U. N. victory had shocked
the people of Asia.

answered by terror of American

trict Public Health oficer Daniel
T.. Seckinger.
DR.. Seckinger said it is assumed
that the casualties and damage
resulting from the explosion of a
single atomic bomb of the Hiro-
shima type would amount to 75.-
900 immediate deaths. In addi-
ton, $4,000 would be so severely
injured they would die; 10000
would be less badly injured. and
about half of these would be walk
ing wounded. There would also
be 1884, persons homeless and
Is per cent of all building and
their contents in the city destroyed
or unusable for a considerable
length of time.
Engineer Commissioner Gordon
r. Young told the group that the
District expects to include ex-
penses for medical supplies and
equipment in its 1852 fiscal budget
request. He asked the doctors to
give the Commissioners an esti-
mate within the next month of
what might be needed.
He advised them, however, to
be realistic and compromise some
place below the amount needed
for ideal treatment of thousands
of casualties.
Medical Plan.
The medical plan Gen. Young
visualized for civil defense pre-
paredness included first aid treat
ment on the spot, with litter bear
ers transporting casualties to
emergency casualty stations and
then on to undamaged hospitals.
Gen. Young warned that the hos
pitals should prepare their stats
now for the tremendous overload
ing of their facilities that would
follow an atomic explosion.
DR.. Ross, in criticizing the lack
of preparedness now in the blood
field. said:
There is no plasma on hand
in this area for civilian use and
there exists a peculiar lethargy
not to do anything about it. Yet
the stockpiling of plasma is the
most important single thing that
can be done in advance.
DR.. Ross said there should be
$4,000 pints OF plasma in this
area before a bombing. To get
that much, he added, there would
have to be 100000 blood dona-
tions - the quantity ordinarily
drawn here in 18 months.
6-Month Supply Urged.
Each hospital, DR.. Ross went
on, should maintain a six-month

100000 will be made by the Army
during December, January. Febru-
ary and March, according to fig
ures released by Chairman Vinson.
Some officials noted that the Army
issued call for $4,000 men this
month, but Mr.. Vinson referred to
only 10000 men now in uniform.
At the same time, the chairman
disclosed that the Army during
the next six months plans to call
$500 young doctors and 1.400 den-
lists under the new doctor draft
law, and to order about 700 other
reservist doctors to active duty.

fortunately, he added, hospital
administrators in this area say
they can afford to do no more
than purchase each days sup
plies as they are needed.
Bleeding centers, he said, should
be located near each hospital to
handle a huge number of donors
coming at the same time. The
present trend in this area, how
ever. he said, is to centralize all
blood donor facilities.
"UnwillingnesS" Cited.
Citing the Singular unwilling

money on blood, he said the Com
missioners have been slow to f.

request for this unit is carried in

DR.. Ross said every citizen
should know his blood type, but
instead of mass blood tipping, he
proposed that the residents should
be told their blood type when it
happens to be classified for some
routine medical reason.
DR.. Seckinger said the Health
Department will assist in develop
ing plans to protect public and
private water supplies and food
and milk supplies, as we'll as

tary facilities in emergency feed
