A few doctors, however, fear
the test may be premature, that
it has not been tried enough on
human beings. The Star will dis
cuss both sides of this question in
another article.
The trial vaccine will be avail
able this year only for those
children eligible to participate
in the test.

way detract from the founda-
tion's continued experiments

$19 Million for GlObulin.
The foundation has allotted
$19 million for its gamma glob-
ulin program this year, enough
to provide shots for 2 million
children.
But the vaccine, it is hoped,
will provide a longer-laSting i'm
munization than gamma globu-
lin. which at its best protects
against crippling polio for about
five weeks.
The difference between the
two. scientists point out, is that
while gamma Globulin provides
borrowed antibodies" in in
jected persons. the polio vaccine
actually stimulates the growth
Of antibodieS in the blood.
From Pittsburgh. DR.. Salk is
reported hopeful the vaccine to
be administered in the mass
trials will give protection for at
least seven months.
But the vast majority of
parents who consent to the trial
vaccinations can be sure Of only
one result-their child will get
about $40 worth of free vaccina-
tions and $50 to $50 worth of
free medical attention.

Big Fight Shapes Up
On Sweeping Change
In Tax Structure
BY the Associatsd Press

Battle lines were being drawn
in the House today for one of
the biggest tussles in Congress
sional history-a complete over
haul of the general tax structure
which will lop $1.3 billion from
individual and business taxes the
first year and more than 50 bill
lion thereafter.
The bill, reported yesterday.
reorganizes and rewrites the en-
tire tax structure, for the first
time in more than 70 years. It
aims at removing scores of al
legged ineQuities and loopholes.
at giving the tax code a new
look"-simpler. clearer, fairer.
Chairman Reed of the Ways
and Means Committee hailed
the proposal as "the most monu-
mental piece OF legislation ever
attempted by the Congress-"
He added "its passage will lead
to increased employment and
higher standard of living"
Stock Dividend Controversy.
The bill would give tax cuts
chiefly through a long list Of
new or more liberal deductions.
One controversial provision
sharply reduces individual in
come taxes on stock dividends.
Other provisions. for individ-
uals. would provide new or bigger
allowances for medical expenses.
retirement income, single heads
of families. dependents making
more than $500 a year, child-
care expenses of working widows
and widowers, charitable COM
tributions, soil conservation
costs to farmers, and other
items.
For corporations. it provides
much more rapid tax deductions
for depreciation of new plants
and equipment. more liberal de-
ductions for losses in past years.
more liberal treatment of re-
tanned earnings and research
and development expenses, a de-
duction in taxes on income from
operations abroad, more free
dom in accounting practices,
and many lesser benefits.
Cancellation Provision.
The Ways and Means Com
mittee tackled onto the general
revision bill a provision cancel
ing a 50 billion annual cut in
corporation income taxes, sched-
uled under present law for
April /.
The bill emerged from the
committee almost exactly as
recommended by President
Eisenhower and congressional
committee stats, who had
labored over the project for
two years.
1t is probably the biggest
single measure ever before Con-
gress. It runs for 875 pages of
single-spaced. small print. In
the large type and double spac-
ing usually provided for con-
gressional bills. it would take up
about 2,400 pages. It weighs
2 pounds IA ounces and is 1H

That note will ask the par
ents to permit their child to be

Ten days later. the first group
of children will be inoculated at

The foundation is so confident
Of public response it has put up
SIS million in March of Dimes
funds to prepare, safety-test and
distribute the vaccine.
Plans also have been made for
research teams to analyze the re-
suits Of the vaccine in the 200
selected counties across the Ma
ton where the field trials will be
conducted.
Antibody for Virus.
Polio is virus. Science has
known that since 1910.
And like other viruses. Scien-
fists now know. there Is an an
tibody designed to deal with it.
The vaccine to be tested this
year Is a killed" virus that has
been stripped of its power to
cause disease.
The killing" Is a highly re-
fined technical process that
leaves the virus just strong
enough to stimulate the produc-
ton Of antibodies when injected
into the blood stream. Then it
is up to the antibodies to fight
of the crippling disease If and
when it strikes.
The vaccine was developed by
DR.. Jonas E. Salk. 39-year-old
scientist at the University of
Pittsburgh.
In early 1851. DR.. Salk and
others at Pitt began work on a
polio immunization program un-
der a large grant from the Polio
Foundation.
Less than three years later
last March to be exact-he pub
lished the results his group had
had In vaccinating 161 persons.
BY last fall. some TOO persons
in the Pittsburgh area had re-
ceived the polio vaccine shots.
Blood samples afterwards showed
a definite stock of the protec-
tive antibodies which were alb
sent before the vaccination.
Among all these persons DR..
Salk reported there were no ad-
verse after-effects-no rashes,
no soreness in arms that lasted
longer than two days and no
illness traceable to the injections.
Some Of the best scientific
brains in the polio fight are con-

Commission Study
OF Treaty Powers
Is Urged by Wiley

Chairman Wiley Of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee has
taken the lead In a move to take
the controversy over treaty
powers out Of politics In this
campaign year by referring the
whole subject to q bipartisan
study commission.
Senator Wiley, who fought the
Bricker amendment and all other
proposals to curtail the power
of the President in making
treaties or international agree
mentS, introduced q joint reso-
luton providing for the study
group.
It would be composed Of 16
members, who would study all
the issues raised in the recent
Senate debate and report to
Congress by March /, 1855, II it
fnds any action by Congress
necessary to protect the Ameri-
can people from internal law
growing out Of treaties or execu-
tive agreements.
Some Support Seen.
The Wiley resolution is not
likely to stop the efforts Of sup
porterS Of some change in the
Constitution to reopen the issue
this year. But it is expected to
win the support of members of
both houses who are unwilling
to support any of the proposals
now pending. By supporting the
Wiley resolution, these members
could assure their constituents
that the subject is being care
fully examined.
The Wiley commission would
consist Of eight members of the
House and Senate, two officials
from the Executive Branch, two
members selected by the Chief
Justice from among individuals
with judicial experience, and
Tour representatives Of the public.
Republicans and Democrats
would be equally represented on
the commission.
amendment of the Consti-
tuition should not be a partisan
matter" Senator Wiley said. "I
think most of us candidly admit
that our debate here of the So
called Bricker amendment has
had some political overtones."
Warns Of Complication.
The Wisconsin Senator warned
that the House and Senate will
be at loggerheads if the Senate
should follow the latest sugges-
ton of Senator George, Demo-
crat, Of Georgia, and REQUIRE
that all executive agreements
must be ratified by two-thirds of
the Senate If they involve in
ternal law.
This would mean abandoning
the earlier George plan, which
was beaten by one vote, to re-.
quire only a majority vote of
both houses on such executive
agreements.
Senator Wiley said the pro-
posed commission would give
Congress solid recommended
tionS" to guide it next year in
considering the issue. He ex-
pressed confidence that Presi-
dent Eisenhower will not take
advantage in the meantime, of
any alleged "loopholes'' that may
exist in the Constitution.
