before speaking out against
James Roosevelt and Represent
alive Condor, he said he had
talked with other members of
the committee and felt they
would back him up in his
position.
Meeting Set May 2.
The Democratic National Com
mittee is to hold two-day meet
ing here May 5 and 6. The whole
question may be aired at that
time if any member of the COM
mittee chooses to bring it up, or
either Mr.. Roosevelt or Mr..
Condor, as aggrieved parties. ask
the committee to go into Chair
man Mitchell's action.
The California primary takes
place June 8. The filing deadline
for candidates in the primary
was yesterday. One Democrat,
Edwarda Reading, a newspaper
publisher, has filed against James
Roosevelt.
Mr.. ziffren said in Los Angeles
today he would ask the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee
to meet this week to consider Mr..
Mitchell's action. MIR. Roosevelt
and Mr.. Condor could, if they
wished, withdraw and leave the
party organization free to sub
stitute candidates.
In defense off Chairman
Mitchell's stand. it was pointed
out today that under the cross
filing system permitted in Cali
fornia, making it possible for
Republicans to file for both
Republican and Democratic
nominations for an Office. a split
in Democratic ranks-as now ap-
parent over James Roosevelt
might result in a Republican
winning both party nomina-
tions for Representative from
the zoCn CdIlIOrnla district.
This district has been held by
Representative Yorty, now a
candidate for the Democratic
senatorial nomination this year.
The same thing might happen,
too, in the Condor district, it
was said.
Mr.. Mitchell wrote that the
courts. not elections, are the
proper forum for deciding ''pri-
vate litigation relating to a
mans domestic affairs"
But Mr.. Roosevelt's campaign
Manager. Ed Lybeck, said in Los
Angeles last night he talked at
length with the candidate and
"our sole purpose is to allow the
voters of the district to decide.
Mr.. Condor was barred by the
Atomic Energy Commission
from a test at the Nevada prov
ing grounds May Z, 1853. Say
ing that "Stale political charges"
we're being revived against him.

Authorities Dispute WincheU
On Danger in Polio Vaccine

to attend a meeting on influenza,
DR.. Salk added at Detroit:
D 1T is nice to have the advice
of sidewalk superintenden like
Winchell-and we will give his
criticism our attention, but this
is actually a Misrepresentation
of what we are doing.
1.-THE vaccine is tested for ef-
fectiveness and margin Of safety.
Before use, the vaccine is passed
for safety by three leading health
groups"
Only vaccine passing all three
testings is used in NEGOTIATIONS,
he said.
That is exactly the purpose of
the tests" he said.
DR.. Salk has inoculated his
own children among about 5000
given the vaccine prepared in his
own laboratory. DR.. Van Ripper
said DR.. Salk also has inoculated
about 5000 children with vaccine
made commercially.
Spokesman for three of the
five firms making the vaccine
commercially - on a nonprofit
basis for the tests-said the
safety is guaranteed by the
triple testing. The firms are
Eli Lilly & Co. and Pitman-
Moore Co., Indianapolis, and
Parke. Davis g. Co.. Detroit.
Parke. Davis said in a state
ment: ''Winchell must have been
talking about material that
either would have been dis
carded anyway or processed and
tested further for fitness No
unfit vaccine was or would be
shipped out of the laboratories"
Mr.. Winchell also said that the
Michigan State Medicai Society
has refused approval. the first
State to do so. The Polio Foun-
dalton is trying To kill the story
but the United States Public
Health Service will confirm this
in about 10 days. Why wait IL
dayS?"

NEW YORK. April 5.-Three
top authorities today gave their
positive assurance of the safety
of the Salk polio vaccine, after
Walter Winchell had broadcast
that it may be a killer"
The safety statements came
from the United States Public
Health Service, National Foun-
dalton for Infantile Paralysis
and DR.. Jonas E. Salk, who ie-
veloped the vaccine. Two firms
making the vaccine also de-
clared no vaccine. is used or will
be used unless proved safe.
The vaccine is scheduled to be
given soon to up to l million
children to test its effectiveness,
to learn whether it actually pro-
tectS against polio this summer.
The vaccine is made of dead
polio virus. Dead virus cannot
cause polio. Each batch of vac
cine is given triple tests. includ-
ing injections into monkeys,
separately by the manufacturer,
the Public Health Service and
DR.. Salk's laboratory at the
University of Pittsburgh. The
safety program thus calls for
nine tests in all of every batch
to detect any live and dangerous
virus.
Some Difficulty.
Mr.. Winchell said last night
on his ABC network program:
Attention all doctors and
families in the United States :.
The Public Health Service tested
10 patches of this new polio
vaccine. The Governments
Health Department, I am told.
found that seven of the 10 con-
tanned live-not dead-polio vi
rus. It killed several monkeys"
Immediately the Public Health
Service said that difficulties had
been anticipated in converting
DR.. Salk's small-scale labora-
tory method to full-scale COM
mercial production.
I'VE have found some positives
Give viruS) in the lots of vac
cine that we have tested" and
SO have other tests, it said.
When live virus is found, that
batch is discarded, it said.
The public Health Service is
confident the foundation would
not release for use in this mass
lmmunization program any vac
cine which was not considered
safe according to the most exact
ing standards that can be eS-
tablished for such preparations"
Must Pass Triple Tests.
DR.. Hart E. Van Ripper, foun-
dation medical director, said no
vaccine will be used which does
not pass the triple tests.
He said four patches had
failed to pass the required
tests" because they were not
manufactured pursuant to DR..
Salk's specifications and were
therefore eliminated by the test
ing. This demonstrates the va
lidity of these tests and the
safety they assure to the public
DR.. Salk DECLARED, There is,
absolutely nothing To- be- con-,
cerned about. Nothing that con-
tains live virus is considered to
be a satisfactory vaccine Z
Some of the tests which showed
live virus. DR.. Salk said. were
actually conducted as checks on
the manufacturing processes, and
it was known in advance the re-
suits would not be satisfactory
