TWO CASES OF. POLIO REPORTED IN NOME

(Continued From Page One) mates is considered all right. He also stated that plans for Girl Scout Camp should go ahead as planned.
 A list of Dos and Dont's are presented here from the June issue of the Alaska Health maga- zine:
 Allow children to play with friends they have been with right along. Keep them away from new people, especially in the close dai- ly living of a home.
 Wash hands carefully before eat ing and always after using the toilet especially important when polio, is around. Also keep food clean and covered.
 Watch for signs of sickness, such as headache, fever, sore throat, upset stomach, sore muscles, stiff neck or back, extreme tiredness or nervousness, trouble in breath ing or swallowing.
 Put a sick person to bed at once, away from others, and call the doctor. Quick action may lessen crippling.
 Telephone your local chapter of the National Foundation for In- fantile Paralysis, if you need help. Locate through telephone book or health department. No patient need go without care for lack of money. Your chapter will pay what you cannot afford.
 Remember-at least half of all polio patients get we'll without any crippling.

Initiation Pressure
To Rise, Wilson Says
BY the Associoted Press

HOT SPRINGS. Va, May 12.-
Economic Mobilizer Charles E.
Wilson repeatedly told 80 indus
trial leaders here last night that
by the end of the year defense
spending will hit a high-gear an
nual rate of $50 billion, bringing
about heavy inflationary pressure.
He spoke behind closed doors to
a meeting of the Business Advis-
ory Council of the Commerce De-
partment. Persons attending the
three-day meeting gave reporters
an account of the speech. .--
Mr.. Wilson, Secretary of Com
merce Sawyer, National Produc-
ton Administration Manly
Fleischmann, Price Stabilizer Eric
Johnston, Price Director Michael
v. Disable and Federal Reserve
Board Chairman William M.
Martin were all on hand to ad-
dress the business leaders.
Their clear purpose was to head
off any pressure from industry
for relaxation in controls. John
L. Lewis United Mine Workers
and livestock. cotton and other
farm groups already have indi-
Gated they would like controls
scrapped.

Rent Chief 10 Urge
Criminal Penalties

District Rent Control Admin
istrator Robert F. Cogswell said
yesterday he would seek to have
criminal penalties written back
into the District rent control
law when an extension of con-
trolls comes before Congress.
Criminal penalties were taken
out of the law in 1949. A ten
ant who is charged over ceiling
rent. however. can bring civil suit
in Municipal Court for $50 or
double the overcharge, whichever
is greater.
The rent control chief said
many violations exist. Not only
does the rent control Office have
no club to hold over the heads OF
violating landlords, but tenants
sometimes either do not know
they are being overcharged or are
afraid to complain for fear Of
eviction, he said.
Mr.. Cogswell said he had OBJ
jected to removal of criminal
penalties from the law at the time
the deletion was made.
Present rent controls expire
June 30. Joint House and Senate
subcommittee hearings are being
sought on the question of extern
sion. Now pending is a bill by
Representative Klein, Democrat
OF New York to continue the pres
ent District law until terminated
py an act of Congress.
