InocuIotion of Children
For Polio Begins in Utah

PROVO, Utah, Sept. 4 (P.-
The little children today embark
on a test which may stop polio
paralysis.
Scientists hope to inoculate
5000 youngsters in the to. 8
age group in this polio-ridden
county by Saturday. Half the
volunteered group will receive an
injection of gamma globulin. The
remainder will be given harm
less blood substitute to insure
scientific accuracy in test results
Gamma globulin is the key tc
the test. This blood fraction has
proved successful in preventing
paralysis resulting from polio in
monkeys and mice. Whether il
will work on humans will be dis
covered here.
DR.. William Mcdowell Harmon
University of Pittsburgh epidemi-
ologist, is directing the test
sponsored by the National Foun-
dation for Infantile Paralysis.
Forty doctors and nurses today
spread out over this mountain
trimmed valley in central Utah tc
begin the experiment.
In perhaps year, after all re-
suits have been compiled, science
may have an answer to the ef-
fectiveness of gamma globulin.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Sept
4.-Creation of new strains of
polio virus that may furnish vac
cines against infantile paralysis
was announced here today.
The announcement was given
at the second session of the Sec

conference. Sponsors of the con-
ference are the National Founda-
ton Tor Infantile Paralysis,
U. S. A.. and the Danish National
Association for Infantile Paraly-
sis.
The viruses were created by a
new method of cultivation dis
covered at Harvard Medical
School by Drs. John F.. Enders,
Frederick C. Robbins and Thomas
H. Weller. For many years polio
virus could be grown only in
nerve tissues.

human tissues all came from
surgical operations.
The viruses we're kept growing
for many generations. In the
course of time the viruses, al
though they remained healthy,
lost some of their virulence. They
became less dangerous. They no
longer could cause bad cases OF
polio.
These tests were made on mice,
and in many cases, the new polio
viruses actually worked like a
vaccine. When the weakened
virus was given to mice. the ami
mails did not get polio. But after

Done on RFC Probe
BY the Associated Press

Senator Capehart, Republican,
Iof Indiana said today he has
asked the Justice Department
what progress is being made in a
grand jury investigation Of the
Reconstruction Finance Corp.
The grand jury has had the big
Government lending agency under
investigation here since March IL.
The probe was a sequel to a
Senate banking subcommittee S
charges that political influence
was involved in huge RFC loans.
The group attributed this influ-
ence to ring having White House
contacts.
Senator Capehart told a report
er he has written a letter to
George Morris Fay, United States
attorney. suggesting that after
nearly six months of grand jury
inquiry, progress report ought
to be forthcoming.
Senator Capehart, a member of
the banking subcommittee, de-
clined to make public the text of
the letter until MIR. Fay has had
an opportunity to read it.

Mr.. Boyle has declared his read

Single Strict Formula
On Wages Opposed BY
Retiring WSB Head

Retiring Chairman George W.
Taylor, of the Wage Sterilization
Board, said today that any tight
and unyielding freeze on wages
may hamper production and lead
to initiation.
Mr.. Taylor's final report as
board chairman said that wages
cannot be held to a single strict
formula if industrial relations and
collective bargaining are to be
kept stable and defense output
maintained. But. he noted, Con-
gress has directed the board to
fulfill all these objectives while
controlling wages.
IF you keep wages rigid and
don't get guns or airplanes which
are needed" he said, "the cost in
holding the wage line might be toe
great in terms of the impediments
to the arms program.
Succeeded by Feinsinger.
Mr.. Taylor left the Wage Board
to return to his teaching job at
the University of Pennsylvania
and has been succeeded by Nathan
IP. Feinsinger, University of Wis
Iconsin professor. Mr.. Taylor's
report was submitted to Economic
IStabilization Director Eric John
Iston.
The outgoing chairman said the
Wage Board has made consider
able strides IN developing a fluid
program to hold pay rates in line
while giving employers and work.
ers leeway to develop greater
productivity and incentive to do
the required defense production
job.
He summed up his views this
way:
"A wage stabilization program
adapted to defense production
needs and to proper consideration
Iof equity cannot be achieved SIM
ply by freezing wages at some
selected date.
Nor can it be accomplished
through single formula such as
the imposition Of 10 per cent
ceiling on wage adjustments.
Such a ceiling would be freeze
at a higher level
Such arbitrary approaches
would have little merit If they
left glaring inequities which would
result in losses of production
through employe dissatisfaction,
strikes, or inability to secure the
right labor at the right place
and at the right time.
"A lower productivity and lower
production could aggravate the
inf1ationary tendencies prevalent
in the economy as seriously as
increased purchasing power re-
Sulting from wage increases. =.
When people are paid sensibly
in accord with the work and skill
involved, there then exists an in
centive to production. That is
also the basis for stable industrial
relationships.
THE kind OF wage stabiliZation
program that is needed is one
which will regulate wage move
ments in such a way as to mini
mize inflationary pressures. but

manpower piracy while retaining
the flexibility necessary to correct
hardshipS and inequities and en-

Iput."
Mr.. Taylor disclosed that the
wage board is stepping up it's pro-
gram to enforce wage controls.
He said that in September the
board planned to investigate $500
employers over the Nation to see
if their wage increases conformed
to board policy.
